< Job 2 >

1 And there came a certain day when the sons of God entered in, to present themselves unto Yahweh—so the accuser also entered in their midst, to present himself unto Yahweh.
Ke sun len se ma lipufan inkusrao uh enenu in sifilpa tuku ye mutun LEUM GOD, Satan el sifilpa welulos tuku.
2 And Yahweh said unto the accuser, Whence comest thou? And the accuser answered Yahweh, and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from wandering about therein.
Na LEUM GOD El siyuk sel, “Kom muta ya tuku?” Na Satan el fahk, “Nga foroht na forma rarauni faclu.”
3 And Yahweh said unto the accuser, Hast thou applied thy heart unto my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a man blameless and upright, one who revereth God, and avoideth evil; and still he is holding fast his integrity, although thou movedst me against him, to swallow him up without cause.
Na LEUM GOD El siyuk sel, “Ac kom tuh liyal Job, mwet kulansap luk? Wangin sie mwet fin faclu wo ac inse pwaye nu sik oana el. El alu nu sik, ac arulana karinganang elan tia orala kutena ma koluk. Kom tuh kifusyu nwe nga lela nu sum in akupaye nu sel ke wangin, tusruktu Job el srakna inse pwayena nu sik oana meet ah.”
4 Then the accuser answered Yahweh, and said, Skin for skin, and so, all that a man hath, will he give for his life.
Na Satan el fahk, “Mwet se ac ku na in pilesrala ma nukewa lal elan mau ku in moul.
5 In very deed, put forth, I pray thee thy hand, and smite unto his bone, and unto his flesh, —verily, unto thy face, will he curse thee.
Tusruktu kom ac fin akkolukyela manol, el ac ngetot nu sum ac selngawikomi!”
6 And Yahweh said unto the accuser, Behold him! in thy hand, —only, his life, preserve thou!
Ouinge LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Satan, “Kwal, inge el oan inpoum, tusruktu nimet kom unilya.”
7 So the accuser went forth from the presence of Yahweh, —and smote Job with a sore boil, from the sole of his foot, unto his crown.
Na Satan el fahsr lukel LEUM GOD ac oru tuh faf puspis in sikyak ac nokomla nufon manol Job.
8 And he took him a potsherd, to scrape himself therewith; he being seated in the midst of ashes.
Job el som ac muta ke nien sisi kutkut, ac sang ipin ahlu fokelik se srike in koala faf kacl inge.
9 Then said his wife unto him, Art thou still holding fast thine integrity? Curse God, and die!
Na mutan kial ah fahk nu sel, “Kom srakna sruokyana lulalfongi lom an oana meet ah. Efu ku kom tia tari selngawi God ac misa?”
10 And he said unto her, As one of the base women speaketh, speakest thou? Blessing, shall we accept from God, and, misfortune, shall we not accept? In all this, Job sinned not with his lips.
Na Job el topuk ac fahk, “Kom kaskas oana mwet na lalfon se. Ke God El ase ma wo nu sesr, kut insewowo kac. Na efu ku kut in torkaskas El fin ase ma upa nu sesr?” Job el ne arulana keok, a el tiana torkaskas lain God.
11 Now when the three friends of Job heard of all this misfortune which had befallen him, —they came, every man from his own place, Eliphaz the Temanite, and Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite, —for they had by appointment met together to come to shew sympathy with him, and to comfort him.
Tolu sin mwet kawuk lal Job uh pa Eliphaz sie mwet in siti Teman, Bildad sie mwet Shuah, ac Zophar sie mwet Naamah. Ke elos lohngak lah Job el arulana keok, elos nunkauk elos in som ac akpwaryal.
12 And, when they lifted up their eyes afar off, and knew him not, they lifted up their voice, and wept—and rent, every one his robe, and sprinkled dust upon their heads, toward the heavens.
Ke elos srakna fahsr loes lukel Job, elos liyalak, tusruktu elos tiana akilenul. A ke pacl se elos akilenulak elos mutawauk in wowoyak ke tung, ac seya nuknuk lalos ke asor, ac sisak fohkfok nu lucng ah nu fin sifalos.
13 And they sat with him upon the ground, seven days and seven nights, —and none was speaking unto him a word, for they saw that, exceeding great, was the stinging pain.
Na elos pituki welul muta fin fohk uh ke len itkosr ac fong itkosr. Elos tia fahkla kutena kas mweyen elos liye lupan keok lal Job.
