< Job 20 >

1 Mgbe ahụ, Zofa onye Neama zara sị:
Forsothe Sophar Naamathites answeride, and seide,
2 “Enweghị udo nke echiche m na-akpali m izaghachi nʼihi na anọ m na mwute dị ukwuu.
Therfor my thouytis dyuerse comen oon aftir anothir; and the mynde is rauyischid in to dyuerse thingis.
3 Anụla m okwu mkparị nke ileda anya nye m, ma nghọta m na-akpalịte m ịzaghachi gị.
Y schal here the techyng, bi which thou repreuest me; and the spirit of myn vndurstondyng schal answere me.
4 “Nʼezie, ị maara otu ọ dị site na mgbe ochie, ya bụ kemgbe e debere mmadụ nʼụwa.
Y woot this fro the bigynnyng, sithen man was set on erthe,
5 Obi ụtọ nke onye na-emebi iwu na-adị nwa mgbe nta, ọṅụ nke ndị na-amaghị Chineke na-anọ naanị nwa oge.
that the preisyng of wickid men is schort, and the ioie of an ypocrite is at the licnesse of a poynt.
6 Nʼagbanyeghị na ịnya isi ya ga-eru eluigwe, na isi ya ga-emetụkwa igwe ojii;
Thouy his pride `stieth in to heuene, and his heed touchith the cloudis,
7 ọ ga-ala nʼiyi ebighị ebi, dịka nsị ya onwe ya nyụrụ; ndị maara ya ga-ajụ, ‘Olee ebe ọ nọ?’
he schal be lost in the ende, as a dunghil; and, thei that sien hym, schulen seie, Where is he?
8 Ọ ga-efelaga dịka nrọ, agaghị achọtakwa ya mgbe ọbụla, dịka ọhụ abalị nke e chefuru echefu.
As a dreem fleynge awei he schal not be foundun; he schal passe as `a nyytis siyt.
9 Anya hụrụ ya na mbụ agaghị ahụkwa ya ọzọ, ebe obibi ya agaghị elegidekwa ya anya ọzọ.
The iye that siy hym schal not se; and his place schal no more biholde him.
10 Ụmụ ya ga-achọ ihuọma site nʼaka ndị ogbenye; aka ya abụọ kwa ga-enyeghachi akụ ya.
Hise sones schulen be `al to-brokun with nedynesse; and hise hondis schulen yelde to hym his sorewe.
11 Ọkpụkpụ ya nke jupụtara nʼike okorobịa ga-eso ya bụrụ ihe a ghanyere na ntụ.
Hise boonys schulen be fillid with the vices of his yong wexynge age; and schulen slepe with hym in dust.
12 “Ọ bụ ezie na ihe ọjọọ na-atọ ya ụtọ nʼọnụ, na ọ na-ezokwa ya nʼokpuru ire ya;
For whanne yuel was swete in his mouth, he hidde it vndur his tunge.
13 ọ bụ ezie na ọ pụghị nʼịhapụ ya, ọ na-edebe ya nʼọnụ ya,
He schal spare it, and schal not forsake it; and schal hide in his throte.
14 ma nri ọ na-eri ga-aghọ ihe gbara ụka nʼafọ ya, ọ ga-aghọkwa elo agwọ nʼime afọ ya.
His breed in his wombe schal be turned in to galle of snakis withynne.
15 Ọ ga-agbọpụta akụnụba niile o lodara; Chineke ga-eme ka o si nʼafọ ya gbọpụtachaa ha.
He schal spue out the richessis, whiche he deuouride; and God schal drawe tho ritchessis out of his wombe.
16 Ọ ga-amịcha elo agwọ, eze agwọ ajụala ga-egbu ya.
He schal souke the heed of snakis; and the tunge of an addre schal sle hym.
17 Ọ gaghị anụ ụtọ mmiri si nʼiyi, bụ iyi nke na-asọ asọ nke jupụtara na mmanụ aṅụ na mmiri ara ehi rahụrụ arahụ.
Se he not the stremys of the flood of the stronde, of hony, and of botere.
18 Ihe ọ rụpụtara ka ọ ga-eji kwụghachi ụgwọ o ji na-erighị ma otu. Uru ọ zụtara nʼahịa agaghị abụrụ ya ihe ọṅụ.
He schal suffre peyne for alle thingis whiche he hath do, netheles he schal not be wastid; aftir the multitude of his fyndyngis, so and `he schal suffre.
19 Nʼihi na ọ kpagburu ndị ogbenye, hapụ ha na-enweghị olileanya ọbụla, ọ nakọtakwara ụlọ nke ọ na-ewughị.
For he brake, and made nakid the hows of a pore man; he rauyschide, and bildide it not.
20 “Nʼezie, ọ gaghị enwe izuike site nʼoke ọchịchọ ya; ọ gaghị azọpụtakwa onwe ya site nʼụlọakụ ya.
And his wombe was not fillid; and whanne he hath that, that he couetide, he may not holde in possessioun.
21 Ọ dịghị ihe fọdụụrụ ya iripịa, ọganihu ya agaghị adịgide.
`No thing lefte of his mete; and therfor no thing schal dwelle of his goodis.
22 Nʼetiti ihe niile o nwere ka mkpagbu ga-abịakwasị ya, oke ịta ahụhụ ga-adakwasị ya.
Whanne he is fillid, he schal be maad streit; he schal `be hoot, and alle sorewe schal falle in on hym.
23 Mgbe o rijuru afọ ka Chineke ga-eme ka iwe ya dị ọkụ megide ya, iti aka Chineke ga-adakwasị ya dịka mmiri ozuzo.
`Y wolde, that his wombe be fillid, that he sende out in to hym the ire of his strong veniaunce, and reyne his batel on hym.
24 Ọ bụrụ na o si na ngwa agha e ji igwe kpụọ gbalaga, àkụ nke e ji ọla bronz kpụọ ọnụ ya ga-amapu ya ahụ.
He schal fle yrun armuris, and he schal falle in to a brasun boowe.
25 Nʼazụ ya ka ọ na-esi mịpụta ya, site nʼumeju ya ka a ga-esi mịpụta ọnụ ya na-egbu amụma. Oke egwu dị iche iche ga-abịakwasị ya.
Led out, and goynge out `of his schethe, and schynynge, `ether smytinge with leit, `in to his bittirnesse; orrible fendis schulen go, and schulen come on hym.
26 Oke ọchịchịrị nọ na-echere akụnụba ya, ọkụ nke a na-afụnwughị afụnwu ga-erepịa ya ọ ga-erechapụkwa ihe niile fọdụrụ nʼụlọ ikwu ya.
Alle derknessis ben hid in hise priuytees; fier, which is not teendid, schal deuoure hym; he schal be turmentid left in his tabernacle.
27 Eluigwe ga-ekpughe ikpe ọmụma ya ụwa niile ga-ebili megide ya.
Heuenes schulen schewe his wickidnesse; and erthe schal rise togidere ayens hym.
28 Idee mmiri ga-ebupu ụlọ ya; oke mmiri okwukwo nʼụbọchị iwe Chineke.
The seed of his hows schal be opyn; it schal be drawun doun in the dai of the strong veniaunce of the Lord.
29 Nke a bụ oke nke Chineke debeere ndị na-emebi iwu, ya bụkwa ihe nketa nke Chineke kwadooro ha.”
This is the part of a wickid man, `which part is youun of God, and the eritage of hise wordis of the Lord.
