Job 24
1 "Why aren't times made known by Shaddai? Why do not those who know him see his days?
Tsy mikafitse amy El-Sadai o sa-o, Akore te tsy mahaoniñe o andro’eo o mahafohiñe azeo?
2 There are people who remove the landmarks. They violently take away flocks, and feed them.
Ao ty mameve vorovoro: ie mitavañe naho mampibotseke lia-raike.
3 They drive away the donkey of the fatherless, and they take the widow's ox for a pledge.
Roahe’ iareo añe ty borìkem-bode-rae, vaho rambese’ iereo ho tsoake ty vosi’ i vantotsey.
4 They turn the needy out of the way. The poor of the earth all hide themselves.
Ampisitahe’ iereo amy lalañey ty poie’e; mitrao-pietake o rarake an-tane atoio.
5 Look, as wild donkeys in the desert, they go forth to their work, seeking diligently for food. The wilderness yields them bread for their children.
Hehe te hoe borìke-ly an-dratraratra añe ty irembea’ iareo mitsindroke; hera hamahan-kaneñe amo ana’eo ty fatrambey.
6 They cut their provender in the field. They glean the vineyard of the wicked.
Tatahe’ iereo ze haneñe an-kivok’ ao, vaho timpone’ iereo ty an-tanem-bahen-do-tserek’ ao.
7 They lie all night naked without clothing, and have no covering in the cold.
Miboridañe t’ie mialeñe, tsy aman-tsaroñe, tsy amam-bodo amy hanintsiñey.
8 They are wet with the showers of the mountains, and embrace the rock for lack of a shelter.
Len-oram-bohitse iereo, vihineñe ty lamilamy amy t’ie tsy amam-pipalirañe.
9 There are those who pluck the fatherless from the breast, and take a pledge of the poor,
Eo ty mitavam-bode-rae am-patroa vaho andrambesan-tsoak’ ty rarake.
10 So that they go around naked without clothing. Being hungry, they carry the sheaves.
Ampandenàñe tsy aman-tsikiñe ty miboridañe, tavane’ iareo ty taho’ o salikoeñeo,
11 They make oil within the walls of these men. They tread wine presses, and suffer thirst.
ie mamboatse menake an-kijoly ao; mandia am-piriritan-divay, f’ie maran-drano.
12 From out of the populous city, men groan. The soul of the wounded cries out, yet God doesn't regard the folly.
Miñeoñeoñe an-drova ao ondatio, mikoiake ty fiai’ o fereo; f’ie tsy anesehan’ Añahare hagegeañe.
13 "These are of those who rebel against the light. They do not know its ways, nor abide in its paths.
Mpiamo mpiola amo hazavàñeo, tsy fohi’ iareo o sata’eo, tsy imoneña’ iareo o lala’eo.
14 The murderer rises with the light. He kills the poor and needy. In the night he is like a thief.
Mitroatse te mazava i mpañoho-dozay, hanjevoa’e o rarakeo naho o poie’eo, ie haleñe manao malaso.
15 The eye also of the adulterer waits for the twilight, saying, 'No eye shall see me.' He disguises his face.
Mandiñe mielizava ty masom-panao havambañe, hoe re: tsy honiñam-pihaino, mbore honohonoe’e ty tarehe’e.
16 In the dark they dig through houses. They shut themselves up in the daytime. They do not know the light.
Ie añ’ieñe ro mampigorabak’ anjomba, antoandro migabeñe ao: tsy fohi’ iereo ty hazavàñe.
17 For the morning is to all of them like thick darkness, for they know the terrors of the thick darkness.
Talinjom-piantantiritse ama’e ty maraindray: mahazats’ aze ty fampangebahebahan- kamoromoroñañe.
18 "They are foam on the surface of the waters. Their portion is cursed in the earth. They do not turn into the way of the vineyards.
Vore mikafo an-drano eo iereo; fatra an-tane ty anjara’e, tsy itsileañe ty mb’an-tanem-bahe’e.
Mamotseke ranom-panala ty tariñandroke naho ty hain-tane: Izay ka ty kibory amo manan-tahiñeo. (Sheol h7585)
20 The womb shall forget him. The worm shall feed sweetly on him. He shall be no more remembered. Unrighteousness shall be broken as a tree.
Handikok’ aze i hoviñey; an-kaehake ty fihinanan’ oletse aze ampara’ te tsy tiahy ka: ie pozaheñe hoe hatae i lo-tserekey.
21 He devours the barren who do not bear. He shows no kindness to the widow.
Joie’e i betsiterakey, tsy soa’e ty vantotse.
22 Yet he preserves the mighty by his power. He rises up who has no assurance of life.
Kozozote’e amañ-ozatse ty fanalolahy; mitroatse re le iatoa’ ia ty havelo’e.
23 He gives them security, and they rest in it. His eyes are on their ways.
Tolora’e fañarovañe, le iatoa’iareo; mbore jilove’e o lala’iareoo.
24 They are exalted; yet a little while, and they are gone. Yes, they are brought low, they are taken out of the way as all others, and are cut off as the tops of the ears of grain.
Onjoneñe betebeteke iereo, naho mifiotse añe; afotsake naho atontoñe ao manahake o ila’e iabio; vaho miheatse hoe t’ie lengom-boto-tsako.
25 If it isn't so now, who will prove me a liar, and make my speech worth nothing?"
Aa naho tsy Izay, ia ty hamente t’ie mavande hampikoake i entakoy?
