< Job 18 >

1 Then Bildad replied [again]:
Bilida: de da amane sia: i,
2 “When are you going to stop talking [RHQ]? If you would stop talking and listen, we could tell you something.
Yoube! Dunu di agoai da ouiya: mu hame dawa: bela: ? Di da fonobahadi ouiya: le esala ganiaba, ninia da dima sia: mu dawa: la: loba.
3 Why do you think that we are [as stupid] as cattle? [DOU, RHQ]
Dia da abuliba: le, ninia bulamagau defele, dawa: hamedei, abuliba: le dawa: sala: ?
4 By being [very] angry and hurting yourself, do you think that doing that will shake the earth, or cause the rocks in the mountains to move? [RHQ]?
Dia ougi hou da dima fawane se iaha. Di da ougiba: le, osobo bagade da dunu hame esalebe ba: ma: bela: ? Gode da di fidima: ne, goumi fadegale, eno sogega ligisima: bela: ?
5 “What will happen is that the lives of wicked people [like you] end [as quickly as we can] put out a light or extinguish the flame of a fire.
Wadela: i hamosu dunu ea gamali da ha: ba: doi dagoi ba: mu. Amo gamali ea lalu gona: su da bu hame ulagimu.
6 And when the lamps above them [in their tents] are extinguished, there will be no light in those tents.
Gamali ea abula diasu ganodini da gasi agoai ba: mu.
7 [For many years] they walked confidently, but later [in life it was as though] they stumbled and fell, because [they themselves did not heed] the advice [that they gave to others].
Ea musa: gasa fili ahoasu, be wali da gogaeane ahoa. Ea da hisu fada: i sia: amoga fa: no bobogebeba: le, dafasa.
8 [It was as though] they walked into their own net or fell into a pit that they themselves have dug.
Ea da gasa: su esa ganodini ahoabeba: le, ea emo lala: gi dagoi ba: sa.
9 [It was as though] a trap grabbed their heels and held them fast [DOU],
Sani da ea emo gufiga gagusa.
10 [as though the noose of] a rope that was hidden on the ground, [whose other end was fastened to the limb of a tree], seized them when they walked into it.
Osobo da: iya efegei da wamolegei diala. Ea logo ahoabe amoga sanisu diala.
11 Everywhere they went, there were things that caused them to be terrified; [it was as though] those things were pursuing them and biting at their heels.
Fedege agoane, beda: su liligi da ema eale disisa. Beda: su liligi da ea emo osa: le bobogesa.
12 They became hungry, with the result that they had no strength. They experienced disasters [PRS] constantly.
Ea da bagade gagui galu, be wali ea da ha: aligi. Gugunufinisisu hou da e dafulili oulela.
13 Diseases spread all over their skin/bodies; diseases that (caused their bodies to decay/destroyed their arms and legs).
Uhimu hamedei olo da ea da: iba: le madelasa. Amoga ea emo amola lobo dasasa.
14 [When they died, ] they were snatched away from their tents and brought to the one who rules over the dead.
Ea da hahawane ea abula diasu ganodini esalu. Be ea ha lai dunu da amoga e gasawane hiouginanu, fedege agoane hina bagade Bogosu, amoga fofada: musa: hiouginana ahoa.
15 Now their tents will burn down, when burning sulfur rains down on those tents!
Wali eno dunu da udigili ea abula diasuga esalumu da defea. Be hidadea, fioso medoma: ne, salafa gufagagala: mu da defea.
16 [Because those who died had no descendants], they were [like trees whose] roots have dried up and whose branches have all withered [MET].
Ea difi amola amoda da biole hafoga: sa.
17 No one on the earth will remember them any more; no [one on any] street [will even remember] their names [MTY].
Ea da musa: mimogo dunu galu. Be wali ea fidafa dunu amola ga fi dunu da e gogolei dagoi.
18 They will be expelled from the earth where there is light, and they will be sent into the place where it is dark.
Gode da e, esalebe sogega fisili masa: ne, sefasimu. E da hadigi soge amoga fisili masa: ne sefasili, ea da gasi sogega masunu.
19 They will have no children or grandchildren, no descendants where they previously lived.
Ea da ega fifi manebe dunu hame ba: mu, amola dunu afae hame bogoi esalebe da hame ba: mu.
20 People from the east to the west [who hear about what happened to them], will be shocked and horrified.
Gusudili amola guma: dini, dunu huluane da ema doaga: i hou nabasea, bagadewane beda: iba: le, yagugumu.
21 And that is what happens to ungodly/sinful people [like you], to people who (have no interest in/have rejected) God.”
Wadela: le hamosu dunu amo da Godema hame dawa: sa, ilia da amo hou ilima doaga: i dagoi ba: mu.
