Forsothe Joob answeride, and seide,
2 “Ne ɖe woada nye vevesese eye woada nye fukpekpewo ɖe nudanu me ɖe!
Y wolde, that my synnes, bi whiche Y `desseruede ire, and the wretchidnesse which Y suffre, weren peisid in a balaunce.
3 Vavã woakpe wu ke si katã le ƒuta, eya ta mewɔ nuku be nye nyawo mele ame ŋu dzem o.
As the grauel of the see, this wretchidnesse schulde appere greuousere; wherfor and my wordis ben ful of sorewe.

For the arowis of the Lord ben in me, the indignacioun of whiche drynkith vp my spirit; and the dredis of the Lord fiyten ayens me.
5 Ɖe gbetedzi xlɔ̃na ne ele gbe mumu gbɔ alo nyi xlɔ̃na ne wotsɔ gbe ƒuƒu nɛ be wòaɖua?
Whether a feeld asse schal rore, whanne he hath gras? Ethir whether an oxe schal lowe, whanne he stondith byfor a `ful cratche?
6 Ɖe woaɖu nu vɔvɔ dzemademee alo ɖe koklozi ƒe ɣia vivinaa?
Ether whethir a thing vnsauery may be etun, which is not maad sauery bi salt? Ether whether ony man may taaste a thing, which tastid bryngith deeth?
7 Megbe be nyemaɖui o, nuɖuɖu mawo tɔgbi ɖe wònana medzea dɔ.
For whi to an hungri soule, yhe, bittir thingis semen to be swete; tho thingis whiche my soule nolde touche bifore, ben now my meetis for angwisch.
8 “O, ne ɖe woana nu si mebia lam, ne Mawu ɖe wòana nu si mele mɔ kpɔm na lam,
Who yyueth, that myn axyng come; and that God yyue to me that, that Y abide?
9 ne Mawu ɖe wòalɔ̃ agbãm gudugudu eye wòaɖe ka eƒe asi ɖe dzinye, ahawum ɖe!
And he that bigan, al to-breke me; releesse he his hond, and kitte me doun?
10 Ekema esia aganye akɔfafa nam ko kple nye dzidzɔ le vevesese si nu mele tsotsom o la me be, nyemagbe nu le Kɔkɔetɔ la ƒe nyawo gbɔ o.
And `this be coumfort to me, that he turmente me with sorewe, and spare not, and that Y ayenseie not the wordis of the hooli.

For whi, what is my strengthe, that Y suffre? ethir which is myn ende, that Y do pacientli?
12 Kpe ƒe ŋusẽe le asinyea? Akɔblie nye nye ŋutilãa?
Nethir my strengthe is the strengthe of stoonus, nether my fleisch is of bras.
13 Ɖe ŋusẽ aɖe le asinye be makpe ɖe ɖokuinye ŋu, esi azɔ la wonya dzidzedzekpɔkpɔ ɖa le ŋunyea?
