Job 32

1 Nagsardeng ngarud dagiti tallo a lallaki a mangsungsungbat kenni Job gapu ta nalinteg isuna iti bukodna mata.

So these three men stopped answering Job, because he was righteous in his own eyes.

2 Ket narubruban ti pungtot ni Elihu nga anak ni Barakel ti Bucita, a nagtaud iti pamilya ni Ram; narubruban daytoy maibusor kenni Job gapu ta inkalinteganna ti bagina imbes a ti Dios.

This kindled the anger of Elihu son of Barachel the Buzite, of the family of Ram. He burned with anger against Job for justifying himself rather than God,

3 Narubruban pay ti pungtot ni Elihu maibusor kadagiti tallo a gagayyemna gapu ta awan masarakanda a maisungbat kenni Job, ngem pinabasolda latta ni Job.

and he burned with anger against Job’s three friends because they had failed to refute Job, and yet had condemned him.

4 Ita naguray ni Elihu a makisao kenni Job gapu ta natataengan dagiti dadduma a lallaki ngem isuna.

Now Elihu had waited to speak to Job because the others were older than he.

5 Nupay kasta, idi nakita ni Elihu nga awan maisungbat dagiti a tallo a lallaki, narubruban ti ungetna.

But when he saw that the three men had no further reply, his anger was kindled.

6 Ket nagsao ni Elihu nga anak ni Barakel, ti Bucita ket kinunana, “Ubingak pay ket lallakaykayon. Dayta ti makagapu a nagteppelak ket saanko a ginandat nga ibaga ti bukodko a kapanunotan.

So Elihu son of Barachel the Buzite declared: “I am young in years, while you are old; that is why I was timid and afraid to tell you what I know.

7 Kinunak, “Ti kaatiddog dagiti aldaw ti rumbeng nga agsao; ti kaadu dagiti tawen ti rumbeng a mangisuro ti kinasirib.

I thought that age should speak, and many years should teach wisdom.

8 Ngem adda espiritu iti maysa a tao: ti anges ti Mannakabalin amin ti mangmangted kenkuana iti pannakaawat.

But there is a spirit in a man, the breath of the Almighty, that gives him understanding.

9 Saan laeng a dagiti natan-ok a tattao ti masisirib, wenno dagiti laeng natataengan a tattao ti makaawat iti hustisia.

It is not only the old who are wise, or the elderly who understand justice.

10 Ibagak ngarud kadakayo, 'Dumngekayo kaniak; ibagak met kadakayo ti pannakaammok.'

Therefore I say, ‘Listen to me; I too will declare what I know.’

11 Kitaenyo, inurayko dagiti saoyo; dimngegak kadagiti panagsusuppiatyo bayat a panpanunotenyo ti ibagayo.

Indeed, I waited while you spoke; I listened to your reasoning; as you searched for words,

12 Pudno, dimngegak kadakayo, ngem, kitaenyo, awan uray maysa kadakayo ti makaallukoy kenni Job wenno makasungbat kadagiti sasaona.

I paid you full attention. But no one proved Job wrong; not one of you rebutted his arguments.

13 Agannadkayo a saanyo nga ibaga, 'Nasarakanmin ti kinasirib!' Masapul a ti Dios ti mangparmek kenni Job; saan a maaramid ti tao daytoy.

So do not claim, ‘We have found wisdom; let God, not man, refute him.’

14 Ta saan nga inturong ni Job dagiti sasaona maibusor kaniak, isu a saanko a sungbatan isuna kadagiti sasaoyo.

But Job has not directed his words against me, and I will not answer him with your arguments.

15 Awanen ti naibaga dagiti tallo a lallaki; saandan a masungbatan ni Job; awanen ti sao a maibagada.

Job’s friends are dismayed, with no more to say; words have escaped them.

16 Rumbeng kadi nga agurayak gapu ta saandan nga agsasao, gapu ta nakatakderda idiay a siuulimek ket awanen ti maisungbatda?

Must I wait, now that they are silent, now that they stand and no longer reply?

17 Saan, sumungbatak met; ibagak met kadakuada ti kapanunotak.

I too will answer; yes, I will declare what I know.

18 Ta napnoanak kadagiti sasao; pilpilitennak ti espiritu nga adda kaniak.

For I am full of words, and my spirit within me compels me.

19 Kitaenyo, ti barukongko ket kasla mapapaingel nga arak nga awan ti pagsingawanna; kasla baro a supot ti arak, nakasaganan a bumtak.

Behold, my belly is like unvented wine; it is about to burst like a new wineskin.

20 Agsaoak tapno mabang-arannak; iyungapko dagiti bibigko ket sumungbatak.

I must speak and find relief; I must open my lips and respond.

21 Saanak a mangipakita iti panangidumduma; wenno saanak a mangted iti pammadayaw iti siasinoman a tao.

I will be partial to no one, nor will I flatter any man.

22 Ta saanko nga ammo ti mangted iti kasta a pammadayaw; no inaramidko daytoy, iti mabiit, alaennakton ti Namarsua kaniak.

For I do not know how to flatter, or my Maker would remove me in an instant.
