Ayub 19
1 Tetapi Ayub menjawab, "Mengapa aku terus kamu kecam, dan kamu siksa dengan perkataan?
Bvt Iob answered, and said,
Howe long will yee vexe my soule, and torment me with wordes?
3 Berkali-kali kamu menghina aku, dan kamu aniaya aku tanpa rasa malu.
Ye haue now ten times reproched me, and are not ashamed: ye are impudent toward mee.
4 Seandainya salah perbuatanku, itu tidak merugikan kamu.
And though I had in deede erred, mine errour remaineth with me.
5 Kamu pikir dirimu lebih baik daripadaku; susahku kamu anggap bukti kesalahanku.
But in deede if ye will aduance your selues against me, and rebuke me for my reproche,
6 Ketahuilah bahwa aku sedang disiksa Allah, dan ditangkap dalam perangkap-Nya.
Know nowe, that God hath ouerthrowen me, and hath compassed me with his net.
7 Aku meronta karena kekejaman-Nya itu, tetapi tidak seorang pun yang memperhatikan aku. "Di mana keadilan," teriakku, tetapi tak ada yang mendengar aku.
Beholde, I crie out of violence, but I haue none answere: I crie, but there is no iudgement.
8 Allah menutup jalanku, aku tak dapat lewat, lorong-lorongku dibuat-Nya gelap pekat.
Hee hath hedged vp my way that I cannot passe, and he hath set darkenesse in my paths.
9 Ia merampas hartaku semua, dan nama baikku dirusakkan-Nya.
Hee hath spoyled mee of mine honour, and taken the crowne away from mine head.
10 Ia menghantam aku dari segala jurusan, seperti orang mencabut akar dari tanaman, lalu membiarkannya merana dan layu, begitulah direnggut-Nya segala harapanku.
He hath destroyed mee on euery side and I am gone: and he hath remoued mine hope like a tree.
11 Murka Allah kepadaku menyala-nyala; aku dianggap-Nya sebagai musuh-Nya.
And he hath kindled his wrath against me, and counteth mee as one of his enemies.
12 Pasukan-Nya menyerbu tanpa dapat dibendung; jalanku dihalangi, dan kemahku dikepung.
His armies came together, and made their way vpon me, and camped about my tabernacle.
13 Sanak saudaraku dijauhkan-Nya daripadaku; aku menjadi orang asing bagi semua kenalanku.
He hath remooued my brethre farre from me, and also mine acquaintance were strangers vnto me.
14 Kaum kerabatku semua menjauhkan diri; teman-temanku tak ingat kepadaku lagi.
My neighbours haue forsaken me, and my familiars haue forgotten me.
15 Hamba perempuanku lupa siapa aku, tuan mereka; dianggapnya aku orang yang belum dikenalnya.
They that dwel in mine house, and my maydes tooke me for a stranger: for I was a stranger in their sight.
16 Kupanggil hambaku, tapi ia tak menyahut, meskipun kubujuk dia dengan lembut.
I called my seruant, but he would not answere, though I prayed him with my mouth.
17 Istriku muak mencium bau napasku, saudara kandungku tak sudi mendekatiku.
My breath was strange vnto my wife, though I prayed her for the childrens sake of mine owne body.
18 Aku dihina oleh anak-anak di jalan; jika aku berdiri, aku ditertawakan.
The wicked also despised mee, and when I rose, they spake against me.
19 Melihat aku, teman karibku merasa ngeri; aku ditinggalkan mereka yang kukasihi.
All my secret friends abhorred me, and they whome I loued, are turned against me.
20 Tubuhku tinggal kulit pembalut tulang; hampir saja aku mati dan nyawaku melayang.
My bone cleaueth to my skinne and to my flesh, and I haue escaped with the skinne of my teeth.
21 Hai kawan-kawanku, kasihanilah aku, sebab tangan Allah memukul aku.
Haue pitie vpon me: haue pitie vpon me, (O yee my friendes) for the hande of God hath touched me.
22 Allah terus menekan aku; mengapa kamu tiru Dia? Belum puaskah kamu menyiksa?
Why do ye persecute me, as God? and are not satisfied with my flesh?
23 Ah, kiranya kata-kataku dicatat, sehingga akan selalu diingat;
Oh that my wordes were nowe written! oh that they were written euen in a booke,
24 kiranya dengan besi dipahat pada batu, supaya bertahan sepanjang waktu.
And grauen with an yron pen in lead, or in stone for euer!
25 Aku tahu bahwa di surga ada Pembelaku; akhirnya Ia akan datang menolong aku.
For I am sure, that my Redeemer liueth, and he shall stand the last on the earth.
26 Meskipun kulitku luka-luka dan pecah, tapi selama aku bertubuh, akan kupandang Allah.
And though after my skin wormes destroy this bodie, yet shall I see God in my flesh.
27 Dengan mataku sendiri Dia akan kulihat, dan bagiku Dia menjadi sahabat. Hatiku hancur sebab kamu berkata,
Whome I my selfe shall see, and mine eyes shall beholde, and none other for me, though my reynes are consumed within me.
28 'Bagaimana caranya kita mendakwanya?' Kamu mencari alasan untuk membuat perkara.
But yee sayde, Why is hee persecuted? And there was a deepe matter in me.
29 Tetapi, kini takutlah kepada pedang! Sebab Allah murka dan menghukum orang berdosa; maka tahulah kamu, bahwa ada Allah yang mengadili manusia."
Be ye afraide of the sworde: for the sworde will be auenged of wickednesse, that yee may knowe that there is a iudgement.
