Jovu 15

1 Hagi anante Tema kumateti ne' Elifasi'a amanage huno Jopuna kenona hunte'ne,

Then responded Eliphaz the Temanite, and said:

2 Knare antahi'zane vahe'mo'a e'inara huno agafa'a omne kea ohantagege, zage hanati kazigati amuhonentake zaho'mo eno eme vazi zoreankna huno agi'arina osiresine.

Should, a wise man, answer unreal knowledge? or fill, with the east wind, his inner man?

3 Hagi knare antahi'zane vahe'mo'a nena'a omne kea huno ke hara regahifi?

Disputing with discourse that doth no good, or with speech, wherein is no profit?

4 Hianagi kagra Anumzamofona korora huntenka, agesga hunka Agri agorga nomanine.

But, thou, wouldst take away reverence, and wouldst attain unto meditation before GOD.

5 Hagi kumika'amo hugasmigenka nanekea nehane. Kagra knare nanekema hunka vahe'ma azeri savri'ma hu'arera knare hu'nane.

For thine own mouth would teach thine iniquity, and thou wouldst choose the tongue of the crafty.

6 Nagra huhaviza hunogantoanki, kagri kagi'mo huhaviza hunegante. Kagri kagefu'namo maka havizanka'a huama hunegante.

Thine own mouth shall condemn thee, and, not I, And, thine own lips, shall testify against thee.

7 Kagra kagesama antahi'nana, vahera fore osu'nege'na nagra esera fore hu'noe hunka nehampi? Hifi kagrama kagesama antahinana, agonaramina fore osu'nege'na nagra fore hutogeno, henka fore hu'ne hunka nehano?

The first of mankind, wast thou born? Or, before the hills, wast thou brought forth?

8 Anumzamo'ma Agra'a keagama retroma hifina kagra mani'nampi? Hagi kagrake'za knare antahi'zana erinampi?

In the secret council of GOD, hast thou been wont to hearken? Or canst thou attain for thyself unto wisdom?

9 Hagi tagrama antahita ketama osu'nona zana, na'a tagaterenka nentahinka, tagrama antahini'ma osu'nona zana, na'a tagaterenka kagra antahinira hu'nane?

What knowest thou, that we know not? [What] understandest thou, and the same, is not with us?

10 Hagi tagri kazigama mani'naza ranra vahe'ma, efeke zamazoka'ma reana vahe'mo'za kagri negafana agatere'za za'zakna mani'naze.

Both hoary and venerable, are among us, one mightier than thy father in days!

11 Hagi knafima mani'nankeno Anumzamo'ma kazeri so'ema hiazamo'a, osi huno knarera huogantefi? Hagi akoheno'ma fru kema hugamia kemo'a, knarera huoganteo?

Too small for thee, are the consolations of GOD? or a word spoken gently with thee?

12 Na'amo higeno antahintahi kamo'a afe'arera nevigeno, kavumo'a ke so'ea nosie?

How doth thine own heart carry thee away, and how thine eyes do roll!

13 E'ina'ma nehigenka Anumzamofona krimpa ahenentenka, keonke keretira azeri havizana nehane?

For thy spirit, replieth against GOD, and thou bringest forth—out of thy mouth—words!

14 Hagi ama mopafina magore huno agru vahera omani'neankino, ama mopafina fatgo vahera omanitfa hu'ne.

What is a mortal, that he should be pure? or that righteous should be one born of a woman?

15 Hagi ko, Anumzamo'a ankero vahetmina antahi nozmie. Hagi monafi vahe'mo'enena Anumzamofo avurera agrua osu'naze.

Lo! in his holy ones, he putteth not confidence, and, the heavens, are not pure in his eyes:

16 Hagi mopafi vahe'mota agru osuta kumike vahe mani'nonankita, kefo avu'ava'ma hu'zankura tinku'ma ave'nesigeno'ma hiaza huno tusi taga'nete.

How much less when one is detested and corrupt, a man who drinketh in—like water—perversity.

17 Hagi Jopuga nagra kaveri hugahuanki, kama antahio. Nagrama ke'na anthi'nama hu'noa zamofona huama hu'na kasamigahue.

I will tell thee—hear me, Since this I have seen, I must needs declare it.

18 Knare antahi'zane vahe'mo'zama zamafahe'mofompinti'ma eri'naza antahintahia eri fraoki, eri ama' hazage'na nagra antahi'noe.

Which, wise men, tell, and deny not [that which is] from their fathers.

19 Hagi e'inahu antahi'zama eri'naza vahera zamagra mopa agafa vahe mani'naze. Hagi zamagra emani vahera omani'naze.

To them alone, was the earth given, and no alien passed through their midst:

20 Hagi kefo avu'ava zama nehia vahe'mo'a, mika zupa atazampi manino nevie.

All the days of the lawless man, he, doth writhe with pain, and, the number of years, is hidden from the tyrant;

21 Ana nehuno azeri agogofe'zamofo agasasankea antahi vava nehuno, musema huno mani knafinena ha' vahekura korora hu vava nehie.

A noise of dreadful things, is in his ears, In prosperity, the destroyer cometh upon him;

22 Hagi agrama amentintima hiana, fegi'ma atirami'na hanizampima vanuana, bainati kazinteti nahe frigahaze huno korora nehie.

He hath no confidence to come back out of darkness, he, being destined to the power oft the sword;

23 Hagi agra bretigura hakeno vano nehuno, igati bretia erigahueha huno agesa nentahie. Hanizamo'ma retrotra'ma huno'ma tava'oma'are'ma me'neana, ko antahino keno hu'ne.

A wanderer, he, for bread, [saying] Where [is it]? He knoweth that, prepared by his own hand, is the day of darkness;

24 Atazamo'ene hazenke zamo'ene azeri koro higeno, hate vunaku trotra nehia kini ne'mo nehiaza huno antahintahi hakare nehie.

Distress and anguish shall startle him, It shall overpower him, like a king ready for the onset:

25 Na'ankure azana anakino mopa nemasagino, Hanavenentake Anumzamofona huhaviza hunte'ne.

Because he had stretched out—against GOD—his hand, and, against the Almighty, had been wont to behave himself proudly;

26 Hagi agra hanko azampina eri'neno Anumzamofona hara huntenaku agareno vu'ne.

He used to run against him with uplifted neck, with the stout bosses of his bucklers;

27 Hanki afovamo'a avugosa eri anonevazigeno afafafina afovamo'a avite'neanagi,

For he had covered his face with his fatness, and had gathered a superabundance on his loins;

28 agra haviza hu'nea kumapi nemanino, vahe omani zute noma pasru hu'zama hu'nea nompi manigahie.

And had inhabited demolished cities, houses, wherein men would not dwell, that were destined to become heaps.

29 Hanki fenozamine zago zmimo'enena zazatera omne fanane huge, keonke zama eri nafa'ama hu'zantmimo'a ruzahera huno mopa atumparera vuno enora osugahie.

He shall not be rich, nor shall his substance continue, neither shall their shadow stretch along on the earth;

30 Hanki agra hanizampintira atreno ofregahie. Hagi zagemofo amuhomo ne'zana te hagege nehanigeno, Anumzamo'ma asimu'ma antesia zaho'mo, ahe fanane hugahie.

He shall not depart out of darkness, his young branch, shall the flame dry up, and he shall depart, by the breath of his own mouth!

31 Hanki negi vahe'mo'zama nehazaza hu'za nena'a omne fenozantera zamentintia osiho. Na'ankure e'inahu vahe'mo'a agra agu'agesa'ama omne zampintira mago mizana e'origahie.

Let no one trust in him that—by vanity—is deceived, for, vanity, shall be his recompense;

32 Hanki e'inahu vahera kasefa vahe mani'neza ame hu'za frisageno, zagasefage ani'nane zafamo'ma hariri hiaza hu'za fanene hugahaze.

Before his day, shall it be accomplished, with, his palm-top, not covered with leaves;

33 Hanki agra nena osu'negeno tagi'za tro hu'naza waini tinkna nehuno, olivi zafa amosaremo raga'a fore osu'negeno ame huno tagiramiankna hugahie.

He shall wrong—like a vine—his sour grapes, and shall cast off—as an olive-tree—his blossom.

34 Hanki Anumzamofo kema antahino amage'ma onte vahe'mo'a mofavrea kase nontesigeno, havigema huno knare osu kankmunteti'ma zagoma erino feno vahe'ma mani'nesia vahe'mofo seli nomo'a teveregahie.

For, the family of the impious, is unfruitful, and, a fire, hath devoured the tents of bribery;

35 Na'ankure ana vahe'mo'a hazenke zamofo amu'ene huno kefo avu'ava'za kasenente. E'ina huno arimpafintira havigema huno vahe'ma revatgama hu'za erifore nehie.

Conceiving mischief, and bringing forth iniquity, yea, their inmost soul, prepareth deceit.
