< Job 28 >

1 “It is true that there are places where men dig to find silver, and there are places where people refine/purify gold [that they have dug].
— «Shübhisizki, kümüsh tépilidighan kanlar bar, Altunning tawlinidighan öz orni bardur;
2 People dig iron [ore] out of the ground, and they (smelt copper ore/heat copper ore to get the copper from it).
Tömür bolsa yer astidin qéziwélinidu, Mis bolsa tashtin éritilip élinidu.
3 Men use lamps while they work far down under the ground to search for the ore inside the mines where it is very dark.
Insanlar [yer astidiki] qarangghuluqqa chek qoyidu; U yer qerigiche charlap yürüp, Qarangghuluqqa tewe, ölümning sayiside turghan tashlarni izdeydu.
4 They dig (shafts/narrow holes very deep down into the ground) in places that are far from where people live, where travelers do not go. They work far away from [other] people, swinging back and forth on ropes [as they descend into the mine shafts].
U yer yüzidikilerdin yiraq jayda tik bolghan quduqni kolaydu; Mana shundaq adem ayagh basmaydighan, untulghan yerlerde ular arghamchini tutup boshluqta pulanglap yüridu, Kishilerdin yiraqta ésilip turidu.
5 Food grows on the surface of the ground, but down under the ground, [where there is no food, ] the miners make fires to break apart the rocks.
Ashliq chiqidighan yer, Tekti kolan’ghanda bolsayalqundek körünidu;
6 The stones [that are dug from under the ground] contain (sapphires/very valuable blue stones), and the dirt contains bits of gold.
Yerdiki tashlar arisidin kök yaqutlar chiqidu, Uningda altun rudisimu bardur.
7 [Some birds have very good eyes, ] but even hawks do not know [where the mines are], and falcons/vultures have not seen those places.
U yolni héchqandaq alghur qush bilmeydu, Hetta sarning közimu uninggha yetmigen.
8 Lions or [other] proud wild animals have not walked on the roads near those mines.
Hakawur yirtquchlarmu u yerni héch dessep baqmighan, Esheddiy shirmu u jaydin héchqachan ötüp baqmighan.
9 Miners tear apart [MTY] very hard rock; [it is as though] they turn the mountains upside down [to get the ore].
Insan balisi qolini chaqmaq téshining üstige tegküzidu, U taghlarni yiltizidin qomuriwétidu.
10 They cut tunnels through the rocks, and they find (precious/very valuable) things.
Tashlar arisidin u qanallarni chapidu; Shundaq qilip uning közi herxil qimmetlik nersilerni köridu;
11 They dam up small streams in order that water does not flow, and they bring up into the light valuable things that are hidden [in the ground and in the streams].
Yer astidiki éqinlarni téship ketmisun dep ularni tosuwalidu; Yoshurun nersilerni u ashkarilaydu.
12 “But wisdom: Where can people find that? Where can we find out how to truly understand things?
Biraq danaliq nedin tépilar? Yorutulushning makani nedidu?
13 Humans do not know where to find it; no one can find it [here on this earth] where they are living.
Insan baliliri uning qimmetliklikini héch bilmes, U tiriklerning zéminidin tépilmas.
14 [It is as though] water that is deep [inside the earth] and [water that is in] the seas say [PRS], ‘Wisdom is not here!’
[Yer] tégi: «Mende emes» deydu, Déngiz bolsa: «Men bilenmu bille emestur» deydu.
15 [People] cannot buy wisdom by paying for it with silver or gold.
Danaliqni sap altun bilen sétiwalghili bolmaydu, Kümüshnimu uning bilen bir tarazida tartqili bolmas.
16 Wisdom is worth much more than fine gold from Ophir [land] or other very valuable stones.
Hetta Ofirda chiqidighan altun, aq héqiq yaki kök yaqut bilenmu bir tarazida tartqili bolmaydu.
17 It is worth much more than gold or beautiful glass, worth more than vases made from fine gold.
Altun we xrustalnimu uning bilen sélishturghili bolmaydu, Ésil altun qacha-quchilar uning bilen héch almashturulmas.
18 Wisdom is worth more than coral or crystal/pure quartz; the price of wisdom is higher/more than the price of pearls.
U ünche-marjan, xrustalni ademning ésidin chiqiridu; Danaliqni élish qizil yaqutlarni élishtin ewzeldur.
19 The prices of (topaz/very valuable yellow stones) from Ethiopia and of pure gold are lower/less than the price of wisdom.
Éfiopiyediki sériq yaqut uninggha yetmes, Sériq altunmu uning bilen beslishelmeydu.
20 “So, where does wisdom come from? Where can we find out how to truly understand things?
Undaqta, danaliq nedin tépilidu? Yorutulushning makani nedidu?
21 No living humans can see it [MTY]; and birds cannot see it while they are flying [MTY].
Chünki u barliq hayat igilirining közidin yoshurulghan, Asmandiki uchar-qanatlardinmu yoshurun turidu.
22 [It is as though] the places where people go after they die say [PRS], ‘We have only heard rumors about [where to find wisdom].’
Halaket we ölüm peqetla: «Uning shöhritidin xewer alduq» deydu.
23 God [is the only one who] knows how to find wisdom; he knows where it is,
Uning mangghan yolini chüshinidighan, Turidighan yérini bilidighan peqetla bir Xudadur.
24 because he can see things even in the most remote/distant places on the earth; he can see everything that is below the sky.
Chünki Uning közi yerning qerigiche yétidu, U asmanning astidiki barliq nersilerni köridu.
25 When he decided how strongly the winds should blow, and how much rain would be in the clouds,
U shamallarning küchini tarazigha salghanda, [Dunyaning] sulirini ölchigende,
26 and when he decided where rain [should fall], and what path lightning should take [from the clouds down to the ground],
Yamghurlargha qanuniyet chüshürginide, Güldürmamining chaqmiqigha yolini békitkinide,
27 at that time he saw wisdom and decided that it is extremely valuable. He examined it and (approved it/said that it was very good).
U chaghda U danaliqqa qarap uni bayan qilghan; Uni nemune qilip belgiligen; Shundaq, U uning bash-ayighigha qarap chiqip,
28 And [then] he said to humans, ‘Listen! To have an awesome respect for me is [what will enable you to become] wise; and to truly understand everything, you must first turn away from doing what is evil.’”
Insan’gha: «Mana, Rebdin qorqush danaliqtur; Yamanliqtin yiraqlishish yorutulushtur» — dégen».
