Job 26
1 Job replied [to Bildad], saying this [sarcastically]:
Yoube da amane sia: i,
2 “I am a very weak and helpless man; and (you [certainly] have not helped me [SAR] very much!/[do you think that] you have helped me [SAR] very much?) [RHQ]
“Dilia da na fidiba: ! Na da hahani amola gasa hame galebe.
3 (You certainly have counseled me well—I, who am not wise at all./[Do you think that] you have counseled me well—I, who am not wise at all?) [RHQ] ([I’m sure you think that] you have given a lot of very good advice to me. [RHQ]
Di da nama fada: i sia: noga: idafa olelesase! Na da gagaoui dunu, be dilia da dilia bagade dawa: su nama olelesase!
4 Who helped you to say all those [great/wise] things? Who inspired you to speak like you did?”
Dilia sia: huluane, nowa da nabima: bela: ? Nowa da olelebeba: le, dilia amane sia: sala: ?” Bilida: de da amane sia: i,
5 “[Because] the spirits of dead people [are afraid], [they] tremble in the waters that are deep under the earth.
“Bogoi dunu ilia a: silibu osobo hagududi hano amo ganodini fofogosa.
6 God knows all about [those who are in] the place of the dead; there is nothing down there that prevents God from seeing what is there. (Sheol h7585)
Gode da bogoi dunu ilia soge ba: lala. Ea siga mae ba: ma: ne, amo soge da hame alaloi. (Sheol h7585)
7 God stretched out the earth over the huge empty space and caused the earth to have nothing [to support it].
Gode da ga (north) mu amo gasi gagai. E da osobo bagade hame fufua amo ganodini gosagisi.
8 He fills the thick/dense clouds with water and prevents that water from bursting the clouds.
Gode Hi fawane da mu mobi amo hanoga nabalesisa. Amola ilia dioi bagadeba: le, ili mae fudagala: ma: ne hamosa.
9 He causes clouds to (obscure/prevent us from seeing) the moon.
E da oubi ufa: amo mobiga uligilisisa.
10 He separated the light from the darkness and put the horizon to mark the place where the night ends and the daytime begins.
E da gasi amola hadigi mogima: ne, osobo bagade dogoa sisiga: le dedenesi.
11 When [he is angry, it is as though] he rebukes the pillars that hold up the sky. They are (shocked/very fearful), and they tremble.
Fedege agoane, E da bada amoga mu udidili gaguia gadosa, amoma badugusia, ilia da beda: ga fofogosa.
12 With his power he calmed the sea; with his skill/wisdom he destroyed Rahab, the huge sea monster.
E da Ea gasaga, hano wayabo bagade hasalasi. E da gasa bagadeba: le, wadela: i ohe bagade La: iha: be gugunufinisi.
13 With his breath he caused the sky to be bright/clear; with his hand he killed the great dragon in the sea.
Gode Ea lafi holo da mu haisewe hamoi. Amola ohe bagade da hobeamusa: dawa: loba, E da amo Ea loboga medole legei.
14 But those events show only a small amount of his power; [it is as though] we are hearing only whispers of his powerful voice. When we hear thunder, [we say, ] ‘(Who can really understand [how great] his power [is]/No one can [really] understand [how great] his power [is]!) [RHQ]’”
Be Ea gasa bagade hou da amo bagadewane baligisa. Amo hou ninia nababeba: le, da sadoga sia: agoai gala. Bai nowa da Gode Ea Gasa Bagadedafa hou dawa: ma: bela: ?”
