Job 36
1 Elihu [finished by] saying this:
Fonobahadi eno gebewane ouesaloma! Amola na sia: nabima! Bai na da Gode Ea sia: dima alofele iaha.
2 “[Job, ] be patient with me a little longer, because I have something else to teach you. I have something else to say that God [wants you to know].
3 I will tell you what I have learned from many sources, in order to show that God, my creator, is just/fair.
Na asigi dawa: su da bagade. Na da na asigi dawa: suga, na Hahamosu Gode da moloidafa, amo dima olelemu.
4 I am not saying anything to you that is false; I, who am standing in front of you, am someone who understands things (very well/perfectly) [HYP].
Na da dima ogogosu hamedafa dawa: Na da dia midadi, bagadedafa dawa: su dunu agoai lela.
5 “Hey, God is [very] powerful, and he does not despise anyone, and he understands everything.
Gode da gasa bagadedafa. E da dunu afae hame higasa. E da liligi huluanedafa dawa:
6 He does not allow wicked people to remain alive, and he always acts justly toward those who are poor.
E da wadela: i hamosu dunu gebewane esaloma: ne, logo hame doasisa. E da hame gagui dunuma mololedafa hamosa.
7 He always watches over [MTY] those who are righteous; he allows them to sit on thrones [and rule] with kings, and they are honored forever.
E da molole hamosu dunu gaga: sa. E da ili hina bagade dunu defele, fi ouligisu hou ilima iaha. Amola dunu eno ilima eso huluane nodoma: ne, logo doasisa.
8 But if people [who commit crimes] are caught, they [are thrown into prison and] are caused to suffer by being fastened with chains.
Be fedege agoane, dunu ilia da wadela: le hamoiba: le sia: inega la: gili se nabawane esalea,
9 When that happens, God shows them what they have done; he shows them the sins that they have committed, and he shows them that they have been proud/arrogant.
E da ilia wadela: i hou amola hidale gasa fi hou ilima olelesa.
10 He causes them to listen [MTY] to what he is warning them, and he commands them to turn away from [doing what is] evil.
E da ilima wadela: i hou yolesima: ne sisasu, amo noga: le nabima: ne sesesa.
11 If they (listen to/heed) him and serve him, [after they get out of prison] they will prosper for all the years that they are alive and be peaceful/happy.
Ilia da Gode Ea sia: nabasea, amola Ema noga: le hawa: hamosea, ilia da olofole amola bagade gaguiwane esalumu.
12 But if they do not (listen/pay attention) to him, they will die violently, not knowing [why God is causing them to die].
Be amane hame hamosea, ilia da hame dawa: iwane bogomu. Fedege agoane, ilia da hano degele, bogosu sogega doaga: mu.
13 “Godless/Wicked people continue being angry, and they do not cry out for help, [even] when God is punishing them.
Gode Ea hou hame dawa: be dunu da mae fisili, gebewane ougiwane diala. Gode da ilima se dabe iasea, amolawane, ilia da Gode Ea fidima: ne hame sia: ne gadosa.
14 They die while they are still young, disgraced because of their very immoral behavior [EUP].
Ilia da ayeligiwane bogosa. Ilia da ogogosu ‘gode’ ilima nodone sia: ne gadosu sogebiga, sama ea sama adole lasu hou bagadewane hamonanebeba: le, ilia da gasa guminisiba: le, hedolo bogosa.
15 But God teaches people by causing them to suffer; by afflicting them, he causes them to listen to [MTY] what he is telling them.
Be Gode da dunu ilia se nabasu hou amoga ilima olelesa. Amola ilia bidi hamosu ganodini, ilia si fadegasa.
16 “And Job, [I think that] God [wants to] bring you out of your troubles and allow you to live without distress; he wants your table to be full of very nice food.
Di da se nabawane bidi hamosu ganodini esaloba, Gode da di gadili oule asili gaga: iwane esaloma: ne hamoi. Dia ha: i manu da bagade lelegela heda: i ba: i.
17 But now, you are being punished [MTY] as wicked people are punished; [God] [PRS] has been punishing you (justly/as you deserve).
Be wali dia hamobe defele, E da dima se dabe iaha.
18 So be careful that you are not deceived by [desiring to acquire] money or that you are not ruined by [accepting] large bribes.
Dawa: ma! Hano suligisu hou da dima ogogosa: besa: le, amola bagade gagui hou da di giadofale oule ahoasa: besa: le, dawa: ma.
19 [If you are deceived by those things, ] it certainly will not [RHQ] help you to cry out when you are distressed; all of your strength will not help you.
Di da digini fidima: ne wele sia: sea, fidisu hame ba: mu. Amola dia gasa bagade hou da wali dima fidimu hamedei.
20 Do not wish that it would be nighttime [in order that God will not see you and punish you], because night is the time when [even] people-groups are destroyed!
Fifi asi gala da gasia wadela: lesi dagoi ba: mu. Be amo gasi da doaga: ma: ne mae hanaiwane dawa: ma.
21 Be careful not to [begin doing] evil things, because [God] has caused you to suffer to prevent you from doing evil.
Wadela: i hou hamosa: besa: le, dawa: ma. Bai dia wadela: le hamosu hedofama: ne, Gode da dima se nabasu hou iasi dagoi.
22 “Hey, God is extremely powerful; there is certainly [RHQ] no teacher who teaches like he does.
Gode Ea gasa da bagadedafa, amo bu dawa: ma. E da olelesu dunu huluane ilia hou baligisa.
23 No one has [RHQ] told him what he should do, and no one has [RHQ] said to him, ‘You have done what is wrong!’
Dunu afae da Godema Ea hamomu logo olelemu da hamedei. Amola E da wadela: le hamonana, amo Ema diwaneya udidimu da hamedei.
24 People have [always] sung to praise him, so you also should never forget to praise him for what he has done.
Eso huluane, dunu da Ea hamonanu ba: beba: le, Ema nodonanu. Di amola Ema nodonanumu da defea
25 Everyone has seen [what he has done], but [sometimes] we can see it only from far away.
Dunu huluane da Ea hamonanu ba: i dagoi. Be ninia da sedaga lelawane, Ea hamobe ba: lala.
26 “Hey, God is very great, and we are not able to know how great he is, and we do not know how old he is.
Ninia Ea bagadedafa hou huluane, amola Ea esalebe ode amo dawa: mu da hamedei.
27 He draws water up [from the earth and puts it in clouds] and causes it to become rain.
Gode Hi da osobo bagadega hano lale, amola amo afadenene, gibu dadadi hamosa.
28 The rain pours down from the sky/clouds; God causes abundant showers to fall on everyone.
Ea hamobeba: le, gibu da mumobi amo gadodili dadafusa. Gibu da osobo bagade dunu huluane fidisa.
29 No one can [RHQ] understand how the clouds move [across the sky] or how it thunders in the sky where God lives.
Gode da mu ganodini esala. Be dunu afae da mu mobi ea ahoabe hou hamedafa dawa: Amola gugelebe ea geloloda: iya ahoabe hame dawa:
30 He causes lightning to flash all around him, but he causes the bottom of the oceans to remain dark.
Gode da ha: ha: na diga: be muagadodili iasisa. Be hano wayabo bagade ea lugudu da gasiwane dialebe ba: sa.
31 By providing plenty of rain for us, he enables us to have abundant food.
Gode da amanewane osobo bagadema ha: i manu bagadewane iaha.
32 [It is as though] he holds the lightning in his hands, and [then] he commands it to strike where he wants it to.
E da Ea loboga ha: ha: na gagulaligisa. E da ha: ha: na amoma Ea ilegei amogai disili gala: ma: ne olelesa.
33 When we hear his thunder, we know that there will be a storm, and the cattle know it, too.”
Gugelebe da mulu ea manebe olelesa. Amola bulamagau ili da gugelebe nabasea, isu gibula bobodobe da manebe dawa: sa.
