Job 15
1 Then Eliphaz replied to Job:
Ilaifa: se da amane sia: i,
2 “If you were truly wise [RHQ], you would not have replied to us by claiming that you know a lot; what you are saying is just a lot of hot air [MET].
“Yoube! Bai hamedei udigili sia: ! Bai hamedei udigili sia: !
3 You should not [RHQ] be saying things that do not benefit anyone, using words that do no one any good.
Bagade dawa: su dunu da dia sia: be defele hamedafa sia: na: noba! Amola ea hou gaga: musa: , dia bai hamedei udigili sia: be defele hame sia: na: noba!
4 [By what you say, ] you show that you do not revere God, and you are hindering people from meditating/thinking about God.
Di da dia hanai amoga hamosa ganiaba, dunu huluane da Godema hame beda: na: noba, amola Ema hame sia: ne gadola: loba.
5 [It is as though] your sins are telling you what to say; you talk like people who will not admit that they are wicked.
Dia sia: beba: le, ninia da dia wadela: i hou dawa: be. Di da bagade dawa: su sia: amoga wamoaligimusa: dawa: sa.
6 Everything that you say [MTY] shows that you should be punished; so, it is not necessary for me to show that.
Na dima diwaneya udidimu hamedei. Bai disu sia: beba: le, disu dima diwaneya udidisa.
7 [“Tell me do you know more than everyone else because you think that] you are the first person who was ever born? [SAR, RHQ] Were you born before the hills [were created]?
Di da osobo bagadega bisilua manoyale dawa: sala: ? Gode da goumi hahamobe galu, di da esalula: ?
8 Were you listening when God made all his plans? [SAR, RHQ] Or do you think that you are the only person who is wise?
Amo esoga, di da Gode Ea ilegesu sia: nabibala: ? Osobo bagade dunu ilia asigi dawa: su amo dia fawane dawa: bela: ?
9 (What do you know that we do not know?/You do not know anything that we do not know.) [RHQ] You do not understand [RHQ] anything that is not also clear to us.
Dia dawa: liligi huluane, ninia amola dawa:
10 My friends and I are also wise; we acquired [wisdom] from old gray-haired people, from people who were born before your father was born.
Ninia dawa: su da gagoaligi dunuma laha. Amo dia ada mae lalelegele, lalelegei.
11 God wants to comfort you, and to speak gently/kindly to you; (is that not enough for you/do you need more than that)?
Gode da dia dogo denesimusa: dawa: sa. Dia abuliba: le gebewane hihinanabela: ? Ninia da Gode Ea sia: dima asabolewane olelei.
12 Why do you allow yourself to be (carried away/excited) by your emotions? Why are [you very angry, with the result that] your eyes flash?
Be di da fofogadigili, ninima ougili sosodo aligisa.
13 You are angry [IDM] with God, and so you [MTY] are criticizing/denouncing him.
Di da Godema ougi amola Ema diwaneya udidisa.
14 “(How can any person, [including you, ] be sinless?/No person, [including you], can be sinless.) [RHQ] (How can anyone on the earth be [completely] righteous?/No one on the earth can be [completely] righteous.) [RHQ]
Osobo bagade dunu afae da fofoloidafa esaloma: bela: ? Dunu afae da Gode Ea ba: ma: ne, moloidafa esaloma: bela: ? Hame mabu!
15 Hey, God does not even trust his angels; he does not consider even them to be [completely] pure.
Bai Gode da Ea a: igele dunu ilima amolawane dafawaneyale hame dawa: sa. Ilia amolawane da Ea siga ba: ma: ne, fofoloidafa hame gala.
16 So, he certainly does not [trust] abominable/disgusting and depraved/corrupt people who do evil things [as easily] as they drink water [MET].
Be osobo bagade dunu da hano nabe defele, wadela: i hou naha. Dafawane! Osobo bagade dunu da wadela: i hou bagade hamosa. Osobo bagade dunu da wadela: idafa, hamedei.
17 Job, listen to what I will tell you. I will declare to you what I know,
Yoube! Na dawa: ga sia: be goe nabima!
18 things that wise men have told me, truths that their ancestors did not keep hidden.
Bagade dawa: su dunu da moloi sia: nama olelei. Ilia aowalali da amo sia: ilima olelei. Ilia sia: afae ilima hame wamolegei.
19 God gave this land to those ancestors, who were truly wise; no one from another country caused them to think wrongly [IDM].
Ilia soge ganodini, ga fi dunu da hamedafa esalebeba: le, dunu afae da ili Gode Ea hou fisima: ne oule masunu da hame ba: su.
20 It is wicked people who suffer with great pain all the time that they are alive; that is what happens to those who (oppress/act violently toward) others.
Wadela: le hamosu dunu amo da eno dunu banenesisa, ea da eso huluane se nabawane esalumu.
21 They constantly hear sounds that terrify them; while they are prospering, bandits attack them.
Fofogadigili beda: ga gusa: be amoga ea gea geheamu. Amola ea da hahawane gaga: i dawa: sea, wamolasu dunu da e doagala: mu.
22 Wicked people surely know that they will not escape from darkness/death, because [they are sure that someone] is waiting to kill them with a sword.
Ea da gasi ganodini esalu, hobeamu hamedei ba: mu. Bai e medole legemusa: , gegesu gobihei da momagele diala.
23 They wander around, searching for food, saying ‘Where can I find some?’ And they know that they will soon experience disasters.
Amola ea bogoi da: i hodo manusa: , sia sio da ouesala. Ema misunu hou da gasi fawane.
24 Because they are afraid of those things happening to them, they are afraid and worry that these things will come to them like [the army of] a king comes to attack [their enemies and cause them to suffer] [SIM].
Fedege agoane, gugunifinisisu da gasa bagade hina bagade dunu defele, ema doagala: musa: ouesala.
25 [Those things happen to them] because they (shook their fists/dared to fight) against Almighty God, and thought that they were strong enough to defeat him.
Dunu amo da Gode Bagadedafa Ema gasa fili lobo usunawane olea gagadosa, amo ea gugunufinisisu da agoai ba: mu.
26 They stubbornly [IDM] rush to attack God [as though they were carrying] a strong shield [to protect themselves].
27 They are so fat [that they are unable to fight].
Ea da gasa fili, Godema odoga: sa. Ea gasa fili, ea da: igene ga: su gaguia gadole, Godema doagala: musa: hehenasa.
28 They will live in cities that have been abandoned, cities which have become a heap of ruins.
Amo dunu ea da moilai bai bagade gegenana samogene lai. Ea da diasu (eda da hobea: i) amo samogene lai. Be gegesu da heda: beba: le, amo moilai bai amola diasu da gugunufinisi dagoi ba: mu.
29 But they will not remain rich very long; Everything that they own will be taken from them; their possessions will all disappear.
Ea da liligi bagade gaguiwane sedagili hame esalumu, amola ea gagui liligi da hedolowane fisi dagoi ba: mu. Ea baba amolawane da gealisili masunu.
30 They will not escape from the darkness [of death]; they will be like trees whose branches are burned by fire and whose blossoms are blown away by the wind.
Ea da gasi amoga hobeamu da hamedei ba: mu. Ea da ifa amoda laluga nei agoai ba: mu amola sogea da foga mini asi agoai ba: mu.
31 Since they are very foolish, with the result that they trust in things that are really worthless, then things that are worthless will be all that they get.
Ea da gagaoui dunu agoane wadela: i hou amoma dafawaneyale dawa: sea, ema bidi iasu da wadela: i hou fawane.
32 Before they are old, they will wither; they will be like [MET] branches that wither and never become green again.
Ea ilegei eso da hame doaga: iyawane, ea da ifa amoda bioi defele, bu hame alemu.
33 They will be like [SIM] vines whose grapes fall off before they are ripe, like olive trees whose blossoms fall off before they produce any fruit.
Ea da waini efe agoane fage legesa, be mae yole galuga dudugini dabe agoai gala. Amola olife ifa da mosole dudugini dabe defele gala.
34 Wicked/godless people will not have any descendants, and fires will completely burn up the homes of [those who built those homes using] money they received from bribes.
Gode Ea hou hame lalegagui dunu iligaga fifi manebe dunu da hamedafa ba: mu. Amola lalu da amo hano suligisu dunu ilia diasu gaguli gagai, amo huluane wadela: lesisi ba: mu.
35 They plan to cause trouble and to do evil things, and they are always preparing to deceive people.”
Amo dunu ilia da bidi hamomusa: amola wadela: i hou hamomusa: ilegesa. Amola ilia dogo da eso huluane ogogosu amoga nabai fawane gala.”
