Ayub 23
1 Tetapi Ayub menjawab:
And he answered Job and he said.
2 "Sekarang ini keluh kesahku menjadi pemberontakan, tangan-Nya menekan aku, sehingga aku mengaduh.
Also this day [the] rebellion of complaint my hand my it is heavy on groaning my.
3 Ah, semoga aku tahu mendapatkan Dia, dan boleh datang ke tempat Ia bersemayam.
Who? will he give I knew and I will find him I will come to place his.
4 Maka akan kupaparkan perkaraku di hadapan-Nya, dan kupenuhi mulutku dengan kata-kata pembelaan.
Let me set in order before him a case and mouth my let me fill arguments.
5 Maka aku akan mengetahui jawaban-jawaban yang diberikan-Nya kepadaku dan aku akan mengerti, apa yang difirmankan-Nya kepadaku.
I want to know [the] words [which] he will answer me and I want to understand what? will he say to me.
6 Sudikah Ia mengadakan perkara dengan aku dalam kemahakuasaan-Nya? Tidak, Ia akan menaruh perhatian kepadaku.
¿ With greatness of power will he conduct a case with me not surely he he will put on me.
7 Orang jujurlah yang akan membela diri di hadapan-Nya, dan aku akan bebas dari Hakimku untuk selama-lamanya.
There an upright [person] [will be] reasoning with him and I will deliver to perpetuity from judge my.
8 Sesungguhnya, kalau aku berjalan ke timur, Ia tidak di sana; atau ke barat, tidak kudapati Dia;
Here! forward I go and there not [is] he and backwards and not I perceive him.
9 di utara kucari Dia, Ia tidak tampak, aku berpaling ke selatan, aku tidak melihat Dia.
[the] left [side] When acts he and not I see [him] he turns [the] right [side] and not I see [him].
10 Karena Ia tahu jalan hidupku; seandainya Ia menguji aku, aku akan timbul seperti emas.
That he knows [the] way with me he has tested me like gold I will come forth.
11 Kakiku tetap mengikuti jejak-Nya, aku menuruti jalan-Nya dan tidak menyimpang.
On step his it has taken hold foot my way his I have kept and not I have turned aside.
12 Perintah dari bibir-Nya tidak kulanggar, dalam sanubariku kusimpan ucapan mulut-Nya.
[the] commandment of Lips his and not I have ceased more than portion my I have treasured up [the] words of mouth his.
13 Tetapi Ia tidak pernah berubah--siapa dapat menghalangi Dia? Apa yang dikehendaki-Nya, dilaksanakan-Nya juga.
And he [is] one and who? will he turn back him and [that which] self his it has desired and he has done.
14 Karena Ia akan menyelesaikan apa yang ditetapkan atasku, dan banyak lagi hal yang serupa itu dimaksudkan-Nya.
For he performs decree my and like them many [are] with him.
15 Itulah sebabnya hatiku gemetar menghadapi Dia, kalau semuanya itu kubayangkan, maka aku ketakutan terhadap Dia.
There-fore of him I am terrified I consider and I may be in dread from him.
16 Allah telah membuat aku putus asa, Yang Mahakuasa telah membuat hatiku gemetar;
And God he has made faint heart my and [the] Almighty he has terrified me.
17 sebab bukan karena kegelapan aku binasa, dan bukan juga karena mukaku ditutupi gelap gulita."
For not I have been destroyed from before darkness and from before me it covers gloom.
