Job 4
1 Forsothe Eliphat Themanytes answeride, and seide,
Eliifaaz namichi Teemaan sun akkana jedhee deebise:
2 If we bigynnen to speke to thee, in hap thou schalt take it heuyli; but who may holde a word conseyued?
“Yoo namni tokko sitti dubbachuu yaale, ati ni komattaa? Garuu eenyutu dubbachuu dhiisa?
3 Lo! thou hast tauyt ful many men, and thou hast strengthid hondis maad feynt.
Ati akka nama baayʼee barsiifte, akka harka dadhabaa illee jajjabeessite yaadadhu.
4 Thi wordis confermyden men doutynge, and thou coumfortidist knees tremblynge.
Dubbiin kee warra gatantaran gargaaree dhaabeera; atis jilba laafe jabeessiteerta.
5 But now a wounde is comun on thee, and thou hast failid; it touchide thee, and thou art disturblid.
Amma garuu rakkinni sirra gaʼe; atis abdii kutatteerta; rakkinni si miidheera; atis rifatteerta;
6 Where is thi drede, thi strengthe, and thi pacience, and the perfeccioun of thi weies?
Waaqa sodaachuun kee irkoo kee, qajeelinni karaa keetiis abdii kee mitii?
7 Y biseche thee, haue thou mynde, what innocent man perischide euere, ethir whanne riytful men weren doon awei?
“Ammas yaadadhu; namni qulqulluun takkumaa badee beekaa? Qajeelonni eessatti badanii beeku?
8 Certis rathir Y siy hem, that worchen wickidnesse, and sowen sorewis,
Akka ani hubadhetti warri waan hamaa qotatan, kanneen waan hamaa facaasanis isuma haammatu.
9 and repen tho, to haue perischid bi God blowynge, and to be wastid bi the spirit of his ire.
Isaanis hafuura Waaqni isaanitti baafatuun badu; hafuuraa dheekkamsa isaaniitiinis ni barbadeeffamu.
10 The roryng of a lioun, and the vois of a lionesse, and the teeth of `whelpis of liouns ben al to-brokun.
Leenci ni aada; ni gururiʼas; ilkaan leenca saafelaa garuu ni caccaba.
11 Tigris perischide, for sche hadde not prey; and the whelpis of a lioun ben distried.
Leenci jabaan waan adamsu dhabee ni duʼa; ilmaan leenca dhaltuus ni bittinnaaʼu.
12 Certis an hid word was seid to me, and myn eere took as theueli the veynes of priuy noise therof.
“Dubbiin tokko icciitiidhaan naa fidame; gurri koos asaasa isaa dhagaʼe.
13 In the hidousnesse of `nyytis siyt, whanne heuy sleep is wont to occupie men,
Abjuu halkanii sodaachisaa keessa, yommuu hirribni cimaan nama qabatutti,
14 drede and tremblyng helde me; and alle my boonys weren aferd.
sodaa fi hollachuun na qabatee lafee koo hunda raase.
15 And whanne the spirit `yede in my presence, the heiris of `my fleisch hadden hidousnesse.
Hafuurri luffi jedhee fuula koo dura darbe; rifeensi dhagna koos kaʼee dhaabate.
16 Oon stood, whos chere Y knewe not, an ymage bifor myn iyen; and Y herde a vois as of softe wynd.
Innis ni dhaabate; ani garuu inni maal akka taʼe hubachuu hin dandeenye. Fakkiin tokko ija koo dura dhaabate; anis sagalee tasgabbii kan akkana jedhu tokkon dhagaʼe:
17 Whether a man schal be maad iust in comparisoun of God? ethir whethir a man schal be clennere than his Makere?
‘Namni duʼa hin oolle, Waaqa caalaa qajeelaa taʼuu dandaʼaa? Namni Uumaa isaa caalaa qulqulluu taʼuu dandaʼaa?
18 Lo! thei that seruen hym ben not stidefast; and he findith schrewidnesse in hise aungels.
Waaqni tajaajiltoota isaa hin amanatu; ergamoota isaas balleessaa isaaniitiin ni gaafata;
19 Hou myche more thei that dwellen in housis of cley, that han an ertheli foundement, schulen be wastyd as of a mouyte.
yoos warri manneen suphee keessa jiraatan, warri hundeen isaanii biyyoo taʼe, warri bilii caalaa burkutaaʼan immoo akkam haa taʼan ree?
20 Fro morewtid til to euentid thei schulen be kit doun; and for no man vndurstondith, thei schulen perische with outen ende.
Isaan ganamaa fi galgala gidduutti burkutaaʼu; tasumas bara baraan ni badu.
21 Sotheli thei, that ben residue, schulen be takun awei; thei schulen die, and not in wisdom.
Akka isaan ogummaa malee duʼaniif funyoon dunkaana isaanii hin luqqifamnee?’
