Job 31
1 I made couenaunt with myn iyen, that Y schulde not thenke of a virgyn.
“Mebla nu kple nye ŋku be megakpɔ ɖetugbi aɖeke ahiãdzetɔe o.
2 For what part schulde God aboue haue in me, and eritage Almyyti God of hiye thingis?
Elabena nu kae nye amegbetɔ tɔ gome tso Mawu si le dziƒo la gbɔ kple eƒe domenyinu tso Ŋusẽkatãtɔ si le dziƒo ʋĩi la gbɔ?
3 Whether perdicioun is not to a wickid man, and alienacioun of God is to men worchynge wickidnesse?
Ɖe menye gbegblẽ wònye na ame vɔ̃ɖiwo kple dzɔgbevɔ̃e na nu tovo wɔlawo oa?
4 Whether he biholdith not my weies, and noumbrith alle my goyngis?
Ɖe mekpɔ nye mɔwo eye wòxlẽ nye afɔɖeɖe ɖe sia ɖe oa?
5 If Y yede in vanyte, and my foot hastide in gile,
“Nenye be mezɔ le aʋatsokaka me alo nye afɔ ɖe abla ɖe amebeble ŋuti la,
6 God weie me in a iust balaunce, and knowe my symplenesse.
ekema Mawu nedam le nudanu nyuitɔ dzi eye wòanya be nyemeɖi fɔ o.
7 If my step bowide fro the weie; if myn iye suede myn herte, and a spotte cleuede to myn hondis;
Nenye be nye afɔ tra le mɔ la dzi, nenye be nye dzi kplɔ nu si nye ŋkuwo kpɔ la ɖo alo nye asiwo ƒo ɖi la,
8 sowe Y, and another ete, and my generacioun be drawun out bi the root.
ekema ame bubuwo neɖu nu siwo meƒã eye woneho nye nukuwo le bo dzi.
9 If myn herte was disseyued on a womman, and if Y settide aspies at the dore of my frend; my wijf be the hoore of anothir man,
“Ne nyɔnu aɖe flu nye dzi alo mede xa ɖe nye aƒelika ƒe ʋɔtru nu la,
10 and othir men be bowid doun on hir.
ekema srɔ̃nye netu bli na ŋutsu bubu eye ŋutsu bubuwo nedɔ kplii.
11 For this is vnleueful, and the moost wickidnesse.
Elabena esia anye ŋukpenanu kple nu vɔ̃ si dze na ʋɔnudɔdrɔ̃.
12 Fier is deourynge `til to wastyng, and drawynge vp bi the roote alle generaciouns.
Enye dzo si bina hena gbegblẽ, eye wòaho nye nukuwo akɔ ɖi.
13 If Y dispiside to take doom with my seruaunt and myn hand mayde, whanne thei stryueden ayens me.
“Ne nyemetso afia nyui na nye dɔlaŋutsuwo kple dɔlanyɔnuwo ne wotsɔ nya ɖe ŋunye o la,
14 What sotheli schal Y do, whanne God schal rise to deme? and whanne he schal axe, what schal Y answere to hym?
nu ka mawɔ ne Mawu bia gbem? Ŋuɖoɖo ka mana ne eyɔm be mana akɔnta?
15 Whether he, that wrouyte also hym, made not me in the wombe, and o God formede me in the wombe?
Ɖe menye ame si wɔm ɖe vidzidɔ me lae wɔ woawo hã oa? Ɖe menye eya koe wɔ mí ame evea katã ɖe mía dadawo ƒe dɔ me oa?
16 If Y denyede to pore men that, that thei wolden, and if Y made the iyen of a wydewe to abide;
“Nenye be mete hiãtɔwo woƒe didiwo alo mena nu te ahosiwo ƒe ŋkuwo ŋu,
17 if Y aloone eet my mussel, and a faderles child eet not therof;
nenye be nye ɖeɖe meɖu nye abolo heku ŋɔ tsyɔ̃evi la, eya ko woagblɔ nya aɖe,
18 for merciful doyng encreesside with me fro my yong childhed, and yede out of my modris wombe with me;
evɔ la tso nye ɖekakpuime ke, menyi tyɔẽviwo abe fofo ene eye tso nye ɖevime ke, mefia mɔ ahosiwo.
19 if Y dispiside a man passynge forth, for he hadde not a cloth, and a pore man with out hilyng;
Ne mekpɔ ame aɖe wòle tsɔtsrɔ̃m le avɔmanɔamesi ta alo hiãtɔ si mekpɔ awu ne wòado o
20 if hise sidis blessiden not me, and was not maad hoot of the fleeces of my scheep;
eye eƒe dzi meyram be metsɔ avɔ si wowɔ kple nye alẽwo ƒe fu nɛ be wòade dzo lãme nɛ o,
21 if Y reiside myn hond on a fadirles child, yhe, whanne Y siy me the hiyere in the yate;
ne mekɔ nye asi dzi ɖe tsyɔ̃evi ŋu, evɔa menya be woxɔa nye nya le ʋɔnu la,
22 my schuldre falle fro his ioynt, and myn arm with hise boonys be al to-brokun.
ekema na be nye abɔ nage le abɔgba ŋu eye wòaŋe le ekpeƒe.
23 For euere Y dredde God, as wawis wexynge gret on me; and `Y myyte not bere his birthun.
Elabena gbegblẽ si tso Mawu gbɔ la le ŋɔ dzim nam, eye vɔvɔ̃ na eƒe atsyɔ̃ mana mawɔ nu mawo o.
24 If Y gesside gold my strengthe, and if Y seide to purid gold, Thou art my trist;
“Nenye ɖe meɖo dzi ɖe sika ŋu alo megblɔ na sika nyuitɔ be, ‘Wòe nye nye sitsoƒe,’
25 if Y was glad on my many ritchessis, and for myn hond foond ful many thingis;
nenye ɖe mekpɔ dzidzɔ le nye kesinɔnu gbogboawo ta, nu siwo nye alɔ wɔ dɔ kpɔ,
26 if Y siy the sunne, whanne it schynede, and the moone goynge clereli;
nenye ɖe mede bubu ɣe ŋuti le ale si wòle keklẽm alo ɣleti le ale si wòle yiyim kple atsyɔ̃,
27 and if myn herte was glad in priuyte, and if Y kisside myn hond with my mouth;
ale be woflu nye dzi le adzame eye metsɔ nye asi wɔ dzesi na wo be melɔ̃ wo, de bubu wo ŋu la,
28 which is the moost wickidnesse, and deniyng ayens hiyeste God;
ekema esiawo hã anye nu vɔ̃ siwo wòle be woahe ayi ʋɔnu, elabena adze ƒãa be nyemeto nyateƒe na Mawu le dziƒo o.
29 if Y hadde ioye at the fallyng of hym, that hatide me, and if Y ioide fulli, that yuel hadde founde hym;
“Nenye ɖe mekpɔ dzidzɔ le nye futɔ ƒe dzɔgbevɔ̃e me dzedze ŋu alo dzɔ dzi le hiã siwo tui ta la, eya ko magblɔ nya aɖe.
30 for Y yaf not my throte to do synne, that Y schulde asaile and curse his soule;
Gake nyemeɖe mɔ na nye nu be wòawɔ nu vɔ̃ to ɖiŋudodo na eƒe agbe me o.
31 if the men of my tabernacle seiden not, Who yyueth, that we be fillid of hise fleischis? a pilgryme dwellide not with outforth;
Nenye ɖe ame siwo le aƒenye me la se megblɔ kpɔ be, ‘Ame kae meɖu Hiob ƒe abolo ɖi ƒo kpɔ o?’ la, anye ne enye nya bubu
32 my dore was opyn to a weiegoere;
elabena mele na amedzro aɖeke be wòatsi mɔto adɔ o elabena nye ʋɔtru le ʋuʋu ɖi ɣe sia ɣi na mɔzɔlawo.
33 if Y as man hidde my synne, and helide my wickidnesse in my bosum;
Nenye ɖe meɣla nye nu vɔ̃ abe ale si amewo wɔna ene, be meɣla nye dzidada ɖe nye dzi me,
34 if Y dredde at ful greet multitude, and if dispisyng of neyyboris made me aferd; and not more Y was stille, and yede not out of the dore;
elabena mevɔ̃ na ameha la ŋutɔ eye mevɔ̃ na dukɔ la ƒe vlododo ale gbegbe be, mezi ɖoɖoe hegbe gododo ɖe gota la, anye ne enye nya bubu kura.
35 who yyueth an helpere to me, that Almyyti God here my desire? that he that demeth,
“O, ɖe ame aɖe le asinye aɖo tom ɖe! Kpɔ ɖa mede asi ɖokuinyetaʋlinyawo te, azɔ la, Ŋusẽkatãtɔ la neɖo eŋu nam, ame si le nunye tsom la hã neŋlɔ nunyetsonyawo ɖe agbalẽ dzi.
36 write a book, that Y bere it in my schuldre, and cumpasse it as a coroun to me?
Vavã malée ɖe nye abɔta eye maɖɔe ɖe ta abe fiakuku ene.
37 Bi alle my degrees Y schal pronounce it, and Y schal as offre it to the prynce.
Mana nutsotsoe tso nye afɔɖeɖe ɖe sia ɖe ŋuti eye mate ɖe eŋu abe fiavi ene.
38 If my lond crieth ayens me, and hise forewis wepen with it;
“Nenye ɖe nye anyigba fa avi ɖe ŋutinye eye eƒe boliƒowo yɔ kple aɖatsi,
39 if Y eet fruytis therof with out money, and Y turmentide the soule of erthetileris of it;
