Job 34

1 Moreover, Elihu continued to speak:

Hagi Elihu'a mago'ene amanage hu'ne,

2 “Listen to my words, you wise men; hear me, you who have knowledge.

Knare antahi'zama eri'nana ne'moka nagrama hanua nanekere kagesa antenka nentahinka, ama' antahi'zama eri'nana ne'moka nagrama hanua nanekea akohenka mani'nenka antahio.

3 For the ear tries words as the palate tastes food.

Hagi ne'zama tagite erinteta haga'ama neta konaza huno, maka nanekema tagesamo'ma antahia nanekea, tagesamo'a rezagane so'e huno nentahie.

4 Let us choose for ourselves what is just: let us discover among ourselves what is good.

E'ina hu'negu inagemo fatgo huno knare hu'nefi tagra'a rezaganeta negeta, rempi huta antahisune.

5 For Job has said, 'I am righteous, but God has taken away my rights.

Hagi Jopu'ma kema hifina anage hu'ne, nagrira ke'ni'a omane'neanagi, Anumzamo'a kema hu kankamuni'a eri atrege'na mago zana osu'noe huno hu'ne.

6 Regardless of my rights, I am considered to be a liar. My wound is incurable, although I am without sin.'

Nagrira mago hazenke'ni'a omanegeno keni'a omane'ne. Hianagi vahe'mo'za nagrikura havige ne' mani'ne hu'za nehaze. Nagrira kumini'a omane'neanagi natama namino nevia natazamo'a vagaoresnia avamente nevie.

7 What man is like Job, who drinks up mockery like water,

Hagi magora Jopukna nera iza mani'ne. Agra kizazokago ke huno vahe'ma zamaveri hu kege nehia ne' mani'ne.

8 who goes around in the company of those who do evil, and who walks with wicked men?

Ana nehuno Jopu'a kumi'ma nehaza vahe'ene eri mago huno nemanino, kefo avu'ava'ma nehaza vahe'ene kna ahefrino nemanie.

9 For he has said, 'It is no use to a person to take pleasure in doing what God wants.'

Na'ankure Jopu'a huno, Anumzamofoma musema huntesnampintira mago zana e'origahane huno hu'ne.

10 So listen to me, you men of understanding: far be it from God that he should do wickedness; far be it from the Almighty that he should commit sin.

E'ina hu'negu ama' antahi'zama eri'naza vahe'mota nagri naneke antahiho. Maka vahe'mo'zama antahi'nazana Anumzamo'a havi avu'avara nosia ne' mani'ne hu'za antahi'naze. Ana hu'neankino Hankavenentake Anumzamo'a mago hazenkea osugahie.

11 For he pays back a person's work; he makes every man come upon the reward of his own ways.

Vahe'mo'zama hu'naza avu'avate anteno rezaganeno negeno, mizana zamitere nehia Anumza mani'ne.

12 Indeed, God does nothing wicked, nor does the Almighty ever pervert justice.

Tamagerfa huno Hankavenentake Anumzamo'a mago hazenke zana osugahie. Ana hu'neankino Hanavenentake Anumzamo'a fatgo huno refkoa hugahie.

13 Who put him in charge over the earth? Who put the whole world under him?

Iza ama mopa tro huteno, kegava huo huno Anumzamofonkura hunte'ne?

14 If he ever set his intentions only on himself, and if he ever gathered back to himself his spirit and his breath,

Hagi Anumzamo'ma Agra'a avamu'ene, asimu'anema ete eriresina,

15 then all flesh would perish together; mankind would return to dust again.

maka asimu'ma enerino kasefa'ma huno nemania zagamo'a fri vaganeregeno, maka vahe'mo'za fri'za ete mopasazaresine.

16 If now you have understanding, listen to this; listen to the sound of my words.

E'ina hu'negu Jopuga ama' antahi'zane vahe mani'noema hunka hanunka, nagrama nehua nanekere kagesa ante'nenka antahio.

17 Can one who hates justice govern? Will you condemn God, who is righteous and mighty?

Kagrama antahinana fatgo avu'ava zanku'ma avesrama hiresina, Anumzamo'a ama mopa kegava hunora viresimpi? E'ina hu'negu Hankave nentake huno fatgoma hu'nea Anumzamo'ma refko'ma hania zantera, mago hazenke hu'ne hunka huamara huntegahampi?

18 God, who says to a king, 'You are vile,' or says to nobles, 'You are wicked'?

Anumzamo'a kini vahekura huno, mago zana huga vahera omani'naze nehuno, zamagima me'nea vahekura huno havi avu'avaza nehaza vahe mani'naze huno nehie.

19 God, who does not show favoritism to leaders and does not acknowledge rich people more than poor, for they all are the work of his hands.

Anumzamo maka vahera Agra'a tro huzmante'neankino, agi me'nea vahe'ene zago vahekukera nehuno, zamagi omne vahe'ene zamunte omne vahera zamage amne zanknara nosianki, Agri avurera mago avamenteke mani'naze.

20 In a moment they will die; at midnight people will be shaken and will pass away; mighty people will be taken away, but not by human hands.

Vahe'mo'za osi'a knafi ame hu'za nefrize. Kenage amu'nompi friza nevazageno, hankave vahera Anumzamo'a zamahe nefrie.

21 For God's eyes are upon a person's ways; he sees all his steps.

Na'ankure maka vahe'mo'zama haza zana Anumzamo'a negeno, maka avu'ava zama hazana nege.

22 There is no darkness, no thick gloom where the doers of iniquity may hide themselves.

Hanima nehia zamo'a Anumzamofo avua resoa osanigeno, maka kumira amate kegahie.

23 For God does not need to examine a person further; there is no need for any person to go before him in judgment.

E'ina hu'negu tagra kna huhampri'neta ana knarera esanunkeno, Anumzamo'a refkoa huorantegahie.

24 He breaks mighty men into pieces for their ways that need no further investigation; he puts others in their places.

Anumzamo'a mago hankave vahe'ma azeri havizama hunakura, vahera antahigeteno anara nosie. Ana'ma nehuno'a ana vahe nontera ruvahe azeri o'netie.

25 In this way he has knowledge of their deeds; he overthrows these people in the night; they are destroyed.

Ana vahe'mo'za nehaza zamavu zmavara keno antahino hu'ne. Ana hu'neankino kenageke'za ana vahera zamahe fanane nehie.

26 In the open sight of others, he kills them for their wicked deeds like criminals

Hagi havi vahe'mo'zama zamavu'zmava zama hu'naza zamofo nona'a, amate zamazeri haviza nehige'za vahe'mo'za nezamagaze.

27 because they turned away from following him and refused to acknowledge any of his ways.

Anama nehiana na'ankure Anumzamo'ma hihoma huno hiazana nosu'za, Agri kasegema amage'ma nontaza zanku anara nehie.

28 In this way, they made the cry of poor people come to him; he heard the cry of afflicted people.

Ana zamunte omne vahera zamazeri havizama hazage'zama Anumzamofontega zavi'ma nete'zama, zavi krafama nehazageno'a Anumzamo'a antahi'ne.

29 When he stays silent, who can condemn him? If he hides his face, who can perceive him? He rules over nation and individual alike,

Hianagi ana zante'ma Anumzamo'ma nona huno havi avu'ava'ma nehaza vahe'ma zamazeri havizama nosanigeno'a, iza huno Anumzamo'a havi avu'ava nehie? hunora hugahie. Hagi avugosama eri fra'ma nekisanigeno'a, mago vahe'mo'a keno eri forera osugahie. Hianagi Agrake mago'mago vahete'ene ama mopafima me'nea kumatamina kegava hu'ne.

30 so that a godless man may not rule, so that there may be no one to entrap people.

Hagi Anumzamoke kefo avu'ava'ma nehaza vahe'mo'zama kva vahe'ma mani'ne'za vahe'ma zamavare'za havi kampima atresnage'za, kumi'ma hu'zanku huno anara nehie.

31 Suppose someone says to God, 'I am certainly guilty, but I will not sin any longer;

Hagi izaga antahi'nankeno Jopu'a Anumzamofonkura huno, nagrama hu'noa kumi'mofo nona hunka nazeri haviza nehananki, mago'enena kumira osugahue hunora hu'ne?

32 teach me what I cannot see; I have committed sin, but I will do it no longer.'

Nagrama hu'nesnua kumira eri ama hunka nasamio. Hagi nagrama havi navu'navama hu'nesnuana henka'anena anazana osugahue.

33 Do you think that God will punish that person's sin, since you dislike what God does? You must choose, not I. So say what it is that you know.

Anumzamo'ma Jopugama hugantea zankura kave'nosie. Ana hu'negu kagri'ma kave'nesiaza Anumzamo'a hunantesie hunka kagesa ontahio. Hianagi nagri zana omane'neanki, kagripi antahintahia me'ne. Ana hu'negu menina knare antahi'zanka'a huama hugeta antahi'maneno.

34 Men of understanding will say to me— indeed, every wise man who hears me will say,

Hagi ama' antahi'zama eri'naza vahe'mo'zane, knare antahi'zama eri'naza vahe'mo'zama nagrama hua nanekema nentahi'za amanage hu'za nagrikura hazaresine.

35 'Job speaks without knowledge; his words are without wisdom.'

Jopu'a agafa'a omane'nea naneke nehantageno, antahintahia osu neginagi naneke nehie hu'za hazaresine.

36 If only Job were put on trial in the smallest details of his case because of his talking like wicked men.

Jopugama kefo nanekema hu'nana zantera, Anumzamo'a tusi'a knaza kamigahie.

37 For he adds rebellion to his sin; he claps his hands in mockery in our midst; he piles up words against God.”

Jopu'a kumi'ma hu'nea agofetu'ma, mago'ene kumi'ma hu'neana, azante rupro huno Anumzamofona kiza zokago ke hunenteno, tagri'enena keha'nereno, Anumzamofonkura huno fatgo hunora refkoa hunonante huno keharente'ne.
