< Job 11 >

1 Forsothe Sophar Naamathites answeride, and seide,
Zoofaari Naaʼimaatichi akkana jedhee deebise:
2 Whether he, that spekith many thingis, schal not also here? ether whethir a man ful of wordis schal be maad iust?
“Dubbiiwwan kunneen hundi deebii argachuu hin qabanii? Dubbii baayʼisuun qajeelaa nama godhaa?
3 Schulen men be stille to thee aloone? whanne thou hast scorned othere men, schalt thou not be ouercomun of ony man?
Of jajuun kee afaan nama qabachiisaa? Yommuu ati qoostu namni si ifatu hin jiruu?
4 For thou seidist, My word is cleene, and Y am cleene in thi siyt.
Ati Waaqaan, ‘Barsiisni koo qulqulluu dha; ani fuula kee duratti hirʼina hin qabu’ jetta.
5 And `Y wolde, that God spak with thee, and openyde hise lippis to thee;
Maaloo utuu Waaqni sitti dubbatee, utuu afaan isaas sitti saaqqatee
6 to schewe to thee the priuetees of wisdom, and that his lawe is manyfold, and thou schuldist vndurstonde, that thou art requirid of hym to paie myche lesse thingis, than thi wickidnesse disserueth.
icciitii ogummaa siif ibsee ani akkamin hawwa! Ogummaan dhugaan bifa lama qabaatii. Kanaafuu Waaqni cubbuu kee muraasa akka siif irraanfate beeki.
7 In hap thou schalt comprehende the steppis of God, and thou schalt fynde Almyyti God `til to perfeccioun.
“Icciitii Waaqaa qorattee bira gaʼuu yookaan yaada Waaqa Waan Hunda Dandaʼuu qorattee bira gaʼuu dandeessaa?
8 He is hiyere than heuene, and what schalt thou do? he is deppere than helle, and wherof schalt thou knowe? (Sheol h7585)
Isaan samiiwwan caalaa ol fagaatu; ati maal gochuu dandeessa? Qilee awwaalaa caalaas gad fagaatu; ati maal beekuu dandeessa? (Sheol h7585)
9 His mesure is lengere than erthe, and brodere than the see.
Safarri isaa lafa caalaa dheerata; galaana caalaa balʼata.
10 If he distrieth alle thingis, ethir dryueth streitli `in to oon, who schal ayenseie hym? Ethir who may seie to hym, Whi doest thou so?
“Yoo inni dhufee mana hidhaatti si galche, yoo waldaa murtiis walitti qabe eenyutu isa dhowwuu dandaʼa?
11 For he knowith the vanyte of men; and whether he seynge byholdith not wickidnesse?
Dhugumaan inni sobdoota ni beeka; inni yommuu jalʼina argutti hin qalbeeffatuu?
12 A veyn man is reisid in to pride; and gessith hym silf borun fre, as the colt of a wilde asse.
Yoo harreen diidaa nama taʼee dhalate malee gowwaan ogeessa taʼuu hin dandaʼu.
13 But thou hast maad stidefast thin herte, and hast spred abrood thin hondis to hym.
“Taʼus yoo ati yaada kee gara isaatti deebiftee harka kees gara isaatti diriirsite,
14 If thou doest awei `fro thee the wickidnesse, which is in thin hond, and vnriytfulnesse dwellith not in thi tabernacle,
cubbuu harka kee keessa jiru yoo of irraa fageessite, akka wanni hamaanis dunkaana kee keessa hin jiraanne yoo goote,
15 thanne thou schalt mowe reise thi face with out wem, and thou schalt be stidefast, and thou schalt not drede.
ati qaanii tokko malee fuula kee ol qabachuu dandeessa; sodaa tokko malees jabaattee dhaabatta.
16 And thou schalt foryete wretchidnesse, and thou schalt not thenke of it, as of watris that han passid.
Ati dhugumaan rakkina kee ni irraanfatta; akkuma lolaa darbeettis ni lakkoofta.
17 And as myddai schynynge it schal reise to thee at euentid; and whanne thou gessist thee wastid, thou schalt rise vp as the dai sterre.
Jireenyi kee aduu saafaa caalaa ifa; dukkanni isaas akkuma barii ganamaa taʼa.
18 And thou schalt haue trist, while hope schal be set forth to thee; and thou biried schalt slepe sikurli.
Waan abdiin jiruuf ati hin sodaattu; naannoo kee ni ilaalta; nagaadhaanis ni boqotta.
19 Thou schalt reste, and `noon schal be that schal make thee aferd; and ful many men schulen biseche thi face.
Ati ni rafta; namni tokko iyyuu si hin sodaachisu; namoonni baayʼeenis fuula kee barbaadu.
20 But the iyen of wickid men schulen faile; and socour schal perische fro hem, and the hope of hem schal be abhominacyioun of soule.
Iji hamootaa ni dadhaba; karaan ittiin baqatanis isaan jalaa bada; abdiin isaaniis duʼa qofa.”
