< Job 2 >

1 Forsothe it was doon, whanne in sum dai the sones of God `weren comun, and stoden bifor the Lord, and Sathan `was comun among hem, and stood in his siyt,
Mokolo moko lisusu, ba-anjelu ya Nzambe bayaki komilakisa liboso ya Yawe. Satana mpe ayaki elongo na bango.
2 that the Lord seide to Sathan, Fro whennus comest thou? Which answeride, and seide, Y haue cumpassid the erthe, `and Y haue go thury it.
Yawe atunaki Satana: — Owuti wapi? Satana azongiselaki Yawe: — Nawuti kotambola mpe koyengayenga na mokili.
3 And the Lord seide to Sathan, Whethir thou hast biholde my seruaunt Joob, that noon in erthe is lijk hym; he is a symple man, and riytful, and dredynge God, and goynge awei fro yuel, and yit holdynge innocence? `But thou hast moued me ayens him, that `Y schulde turmente hym in veyn.
Yawe alobaki na Satana: — Boni, omoni Yobo, mosali na Ngai? Ezali na moto moko te oyo azali lokola ye, kati na mokili: azali moyengebene mpe moto ya sembo, atosaka Nzambe mpe akimaka mabe. Azali kaka kotingama na bosembo na ye, atako otindikaki Ngai na pamba ete nasala ye mabe.
4 To whom Sathan answeride, and seide, `A man schal yyue skyn for skyn, and alle thingis that he hath for his lijf;
Satana azongiselaki Yawe: — Poso mpo na poso: moto akoki kopesa biloko na ye nyonso mpo kaka abikisa bomoi na ye.
5 `ellis sende thin hond, and touche his boon and fleisch, and thanne thou schalt se, that he schal curse thee in the face.
Kasi sik’oyo, sembola kaka loboko na Yo, beta nzoto mpe mikuwa na ye; okomona penza soki akolakela Yo mabe te na miso na Yo.
6 Therfor the Lord seide to Sathan, Lo! he is in `thin hond; netheles kepe thou his lijf.
Yawe alobaki na Satana: — Malamu! Azali kati na maboko na yo, kasi kosimba bomoi na ye te!
7 Therfor Sathan yede out fro the face of the Lord, and smoot Joob with `a ful wickid botche fro the sole of the foot `til to his top;
Boye, Satana alongwaki liboso ya Yawe mpe abwakelaki Yobo bokono ya mabe na poso ya nzoto, longwa na se ya matambe na ye kino na songe ya moto.
8 which Joob schauyde the quytere with a schelle, `and sat in the dunghil.
Yobo akamataki eteni ya mbeki mpo na komikwanza na yango nzoto, mpe amivandisaki na putulu.
9 Forsothe his wijf seide to hym, Dwellist thou yit in thi symplenesse? Curse thou God, and die.
Mwasi na ye alobaki na ye: — Boni, ozali kaka kokoba na bosembo na yo? Lakela Nzambe mabe mpe kufa na yo!
10 And Joob seide, Thou hast spoke as oon of the fonned wymmen; if we han take goodis of the hond of the Lord, whi forsothe suffren we not yuels? In alle these thingis Joob synnede not in hise lippis.
Yobo azongiselaki ye: — Ah! Ozali koloba lokola moto ya liboma! Boni, tondimaka kaka makambo ya malamu, epai ya Nzambe, kasi tondimaka makambo mabe te?
11 Therfor thre frendis of Joob herden al the yuel, that hadde bifelde to hym, and camen ech man fro his place, Eliphath Temanytes, and Baldach Suythes, and Sophar Naamathites; for thei `hadden seide togidere to hem silf, that thei wolden come togidere, and visite hym, and coumforte.
Tango baninga misato ya Yobo —Elifazi, moto ya Temani; Bilidadi, moto ya Shuwa; mpe Tsofari, moto ya Naama— bayokaki sango ya pasi nyonso oyo ekomelaki Yobo, batikaki bandako na bango mpe bayokanaki mpo na kokende kokabola pasi elongo na ye mpe kobondisa ye.
12 And whanne thei hadden reisid afer `her iyen, thei knewen not hym; and thei crieden, and wepten, and to-renten her clothis, and spreynten dust on her heed `in to heuene.
Wuta na mosika, tango kaka bamonaki ye, bakokaki te koyeba ye lisusu; boye, babandaki wana kolela makasi, bapasolaki banzambala na bango mpe bamibwakelaki putulu na mito.
13 And thei saten with hym in the erthe seuene daies and seuene nyytis, and no man spak a word to hym; for thei sien, that his sorewe was greet.
Bamivandisaki na mabele elongo na Yobo mikolo sambo mpe butu sambo. Moko te akokaki koloba na ye ata liloba moko, pamba te bamonaki ndenge nini pasi na ye ezalaki makasi.
