Ayub 17
1 Ajalku sudah dekat, hampir putuslah napasku; hanyalah kuburan yang tinggal bagiku.
Spirit my it is broken days my they are extinguished grave [belong] to me.
2 Orang menjadikan aku bahan ejekan; kulihat betapa mereka melontarkan sindiran.
Not mockeries [are] with me and on rebelling they may it dwell eye my.
3 Aku ini jujur, ya Allah. Percayalah padaku! Siapa lagi yang dapat menyokong perkataanku?
Make! please stand surety for me with yourself who? that to hand my will he strike himself.
4 Kaututup hati mereka sehingga tak mengerti; jangan sampai mereka menundukkan aku kini.
For heart their you have kept from understanding there-fore not you will exalt [them].
5 Menurut pepatah, siapa mengadukan teman demi keuntungan, anak-anaknya sendiri akan menerima pembalasan.
For a share he tells friends and [the] eyes of children his they will fail.
6 Kini aku disindir dengan pepatah itu; mereka datang untuk meludahi mukaku.
And he has set me to use a proverb peoples and a spitting to [the] face I am.
7 Mataku kabur karena dukacita; seluruh tubuhku kurus merana.
And it has grown dim from grief eye my and members my [are] like shadow all of them.
8 Orang yang saleh, terkejut dan heran; orang yang tak bersalah, menganggap aku tidak bertuhan.
They are appalled upright [people] on this and [the] innocent on [the] godless he will rouse himself.
9 Orang yang baik dan yang tidak bersalah, makin yakin cara hidupnya berkenan kepada Allah.
And he may hold [the] righteous way his and [the] clean of hands he will increase strength.
10 Tapi seandainya kamu semua datang ke mari, tak seorang bijaksana pun yang akan kudapati.
And but all of them you will return and come please and not I will find among you a wise [person].
11 Hari-hariku telah lalu, gagallah segala rencanaku; hilang pula semua cita-cita hatiku.
Days my they have passed plans my they have been torn apart [the] wishes of heart my.
12 Tetapi sahabat-sahabatku berkata, 'Malam itu siang dan terang hampir tiba.' Namun aku tahu dalam hatiku bahwa tetap gelaplah keadaanku.
Night into day they make light [is] near from before darkness.
If I will hope for Sheol home my in the darkness I have spread out beds my. (Sheol h7585)
14 Kuburku kunamakan "Ayahku", dan cacing-cacing pemakan tubuhku kusebut "Ibu" dan "Saudara perempuanku".
To the pit I have called out [are] father my you O mother my and sister my to the maggot.
15 Di manakah harapan bagiku; siapa melihat adanya bahagia untukku?
And where? then [is] hope my and hope my who? will he observe it.
