Job 24
1 Wherefore from the Mighty One Times have not been hidden, And those knowing Him have not seen His days.
“Angʼo momiyo Jehova Nyasaye Maratego ok oketo odiechieng ngʼado bura mondo ongʼere? Angʼo momiyo joma ongʼeyo geno odiechiengno to ok ginyal nene?
2 The borders they reach, A drove they have taken violently away, Yea, they do evil.
Ji ma timbegi richo ketho kiewo; kendo gikwayo jamni ma gisekwalo.
3 The ass of the fatherless they lead away, They take in pledge the ox of the widow,
Gikwalo punda nyathi kich kendo gikawo rwadh pur achiel kende mar dhako ma chwore otho ka gir singo.
4 They turn aside the needy from the way, Together have hid the poor of the earth.
Gimono jochan yudo adiera kendo gimiyo jomodhier ringo pondo.
5 Lo, wild asses in a wilderness, They have gone out about their work, Seeking early for prey, A mixture for himself — food for young ones.
Joma odhier tiyo matek kamanyo chiemo e thim, mana ka punda; nikech onge kama ginyalo yudoe chiemo ni nyithindgi.
6 In a field his provender they reap, And the vineyard of the wicked they glean.
Gichoko chiemb jamni kendo gihulo mzabibu e puothe joricho.
7 The naked they cause to lodge Without clothing. And there is no covering in the cold.
Ginindo duk gotieno nikech gionge lewni; gionge gimoro amora ma ginyalo umorego ka koyo ngʼich.
8 From the inundation of hills they are wet, And without a refuge — have embraced a rock.
Kodh ajiki mag gode olwoko dendgi kendo gitwere e lwendni nikech gionge kuonde dak.
9 They take violently away From the breast the orphan, And on the poor they lay a pledge.
Nyathi maonge gi wuon iyudho oko e thuno; nyathi jadhier ma pod kwar imako kar gowi.
10 Naked, they have gone without clothing, And hungry — have taken away a sheaf.
Giwuotho duk e gwengʼ nikech gionge lewni; gitingʼo ne ji chiemo to gin to kech negogi.
11 Between their walls they make oil, Wine-presses they have trodden, and thirst.
Ji chunogi gitoyo zeituni kuonde ma gin ema gikunyo, kendo gibiyo olemb mzabibu to gin riyo negogi.
12 Because of enmity men do groan, And the soul of pierced ones doth cry, And God doth not give praise.
Chur mar joma tho ochomo polo koa e dala maduongʼ kendo chunje joma ohinyore ywagore ka dwaro kony, to Nyasaye ok okum joma hinyogi.
13 They have been among rebellious ones of light, They have not discerned His ways, Nor abode in His paths.
“Nitie jomoko mangʼanyo ne ler, ma ok ongʼeyo yore ler, kata ma ok dwar ler.
14 At the light doth the murderer rise, He doth slay the poor and needy, And in the night he is as a thief.
Ka ler mar odiechiengʼ rumo aruma nii, to janek aa malo kendo onego jochan gi jodhier; otimo kamano gotieno kolidho ka jakuo.
15 And the eye of an adulterer Hath observed the twilight, Saying, 'No eye doth behold me.' And he putteth the face in secret.
Wangʼ jachode bende rito mondo piny oimre; oparo e chunye niya, ‘Onge ngʼat ma biro nena,’ kendo opando wangʼe mondo kik ngʼeye.
16 He hath dug in the darkness — houses; By day they shut themselves up, They have not known light.
Jokuo turo udi gotieno, to kochopo odiechiengʼ to gipondo; nimar ok gidwar neno ler.
17 When together, morning [is] to them death shade, When he discerneth the terrors of death shade.
Giduto mudho mandiwa chalnegi okinyi; giloso osiep gi masiche mayudore e mudho mandiwa.
18 Light he [is] on the face of the waters, Vilified is their portion in the earth, He turneth not the way of vineyards.
“To kata kamano gichalo buoyo moyienyo ewi pi malo; lopegi okwongʼ, maonge ngʼama rawo e puothegi mag mzabibu mi yudie olemo.
Joricho lal nono e piny ma ji odakie, mana kaka pe leny ka chiengʼ rieny e ndalo oro. (Sheol h7585)
20 Forget him doth the womb, Sweeten [on] him doth the worm, No more is he remembered, And broken as a tree is wickedness.
Onge ngʼama paro joricho kendo wich wil kodgi; mi kudni chamgi kendo itiekogi chuth.
21 Treating evil the barren [who] beareth not, And [to] the widow he doth no good,
Gisando mon ma chwogi otho kendo ok gikech mon maonge nyithindo.
22 And hath drawn the mighty by his power, He riseth, and none believeth in life.
To Nyasaye tieko joma roteke gi tekone; kata obedo ni gin joma niginyalo to gionge gi ratiro ni gibiro bedo mangima.
23 He giveth to him confidence, and he is supported, And his eyes [are] on their ways.
Onyalo weyogi mi gipar ni gin gi kwe, to wangʼe osiko rangogi kinde duto.
24 High they were [for] a little, and they are not, And they have been brought low. As all [others] they are shut up, And as the head of an ear of corn cut off.
Gineno maber kuom kinde matin kende to bangʼe gilal nono kadiemo wangʼ, kendo ichokogi mi giner ka buya mopudhi; kendo ingʼadogi oko mana kaka ingʼado wiye cham.
25 And if not now, who doth prove me a liar, And doth make of nothing my word?
“Ka gik ma awachogo miriambo, to en ngʼa manyalo nyiso maler ni ariambo, ma dimi wechega bed gik manono?”
