1 Hagi Jopu'a anante Elifasine ruga'amokizmia amanage huno kezmirera kenona hu'ne,
Then responded Job, and said: —
2 Rama'a zupa ama ana nanekea antahi'na oanagi, magore huno ama ana nanekema hazazamo'a naza osutfa nehigeta tamasunkura hunonantaze.
I have heard many such things, Wearisome comforters, are ye all!
3 Hanki nazeri amuhoma hu nanekema nehazana taganeta omanigahazo? Na'a nehigeta kea huvava huta nevaze?
Is there to be an end to windy words? Or what so strongly exciteth thee, that thou must respond?
4 Hanki nagrama huaza huta tamagrama knafima manizasina, tamagrama nehazaza hu'na kefintira tamazeri haviza nehu'na nagena rusine.
I also, like you, could speak, —If your soul were in the place of my soul, I could string together words against you, and could therewith shake over you my head.
5 Hianagi nagrama huazama huta tamagra knafima manizasina, nagra tamazeri hanavetikea huneramugetma fru hutma manizasine.
I could make you determined, by my mouth, and then my lip-solace should restrain you.
6 Hianagi nagra'ama naguvazi kazigati kema huampi, kema osu'ma manuampi, ana avamenteke knazanimo'a vagaore meno nevie.
Though I do speak, unassuaged is my stinging pain, —And, if I forbear, of what am I relieved?
7 Tamagerfa huno Anumzamo'a mika hanaveni'a erinetreno, naga'ni'a mika zamahe vaganere.
But, now, hath he wearied me, thou hast destroyed all my family;
8 Ana nehuno nazeri havizantfa higeno, navufgamo'a zaferina'nire akamare'ne. E'ina'ma hia zama vahe'mo'zama nege'za kumi hu'nea zamofo nona'a knazana e'nerie hu'za hu'naze.
And, having captured me, it hath served, as a witness; and so my wasting away hath risen up against me, in my face, it answereth.
9 Anumzamo'a tusi arimpa ahenenanteno nagrira nazeri haviza hu'ne. Agra tusi rimpagu nehuno avera aninkreki nehuno, avua anteno nenageno nage raponeno nenage.
His anger, hath torn and persecuted me, He hath gnashed upon me with his teeth, Mine adversary, hath sharpened his eyes for me.
10 Hanki vahe'mo'za zamagira renagate nenamiza, nameragente rupro hunenamiza, huhaviza hunante'za eri mago hu'za ha'rarenante'naze.
They have gaped upon me with their mouth, With reproach, have they smitten my cheek, Together, against me, have they closed their ranks.
11 Anumzamo'a kumi vahetmimofo zamazampi navrente'ne. Hanki Agra nazeriteno kefo avu'ava'ma nehaza vahe'mokizmi matevu zami'ne.
GOD doth abandon me to him that is perverse, and, into the hands of the lawless, he throweth me headlong.
12 Hanki korapara hakare'a zamo'a knare huno me'nege'na knare hu'na mani'noanagi, Anumzamo'a nanankente navazu huno nazeri taganavazi'ne. E'ina nehuno nazeri haviza hunaku hankogna huno nazeri oti'ne.
At ease, was I when he shattered me, Yea he seized me by my neck, and dashed me in pieces, then set me up for himself as a mark:
13 Ana hige'za kevema nahe vahe'mo'za manigaginante'naze. E'ina hu'nazageno Anumzamo'a asunkura huonanteno kevea nenahegeno, navinompafi timo'a mopafina herafi neramie.
His archers came round against me, He clave asunder my reins, and spared not, He poured out, on the earth, my gall:
14 Hanki Anumzamo'a mago zupa natrege'na amnea omani'noanki, sondia vahe'mo'zama ha' vahe'ma nezmahazaza huno maka zupa naheva naheva huno tusi kano nenamie.
He made a breach in me, breach upon breach, He ran upon me, like a mighty man.
15 Hagi nagra nasunku nehu'na kopra beki kukena hati'na nentanina, navufga rama nehua zana atrogeno kugusopafi evurami'ne.
Sackcloth, sewed I on my skin, and rolled—in the dust—my horn:
16 Hagi zavi'ma netogeno'a, navugosamo'a korankifa nehegeno, navumo'a finigu ahe'ne.
My face, is reddened from weeping, and, upon mine eyelashes, is the death-shade: —
17 Hianagi nagra mago hazenkea osu'noanki, fatgo hu'na nunamuna nehue.
Though no violence was in my hands, and, my prayer, was pure.
18 Hagi mopamoka korani'a refira otenegeno, nagrama knama enerua zankura koranimo'a krafagea huno vino.
O earth! do not cover my blood, and let there be no place for mine outcry.
19 Hagi meninena ko, nagri'ma huama'ma huno tamage nehie huno'ma huama'ma hunantesia vahera monafinka mani'ne. Nagri'ma nahokeno nanekema hu' vahera manisga huno anagamu mani'ne.
Even now, lo! in the heavens, is my witness,
20 Hagi aronenimo'za huhaviza hunenantazage'na Anumzanimofontega nunamuna hu'na zavira atevava nehue.
And, he that voucheth for me is on high. My friends are, they who scorn me, Unto GOD, hath mine eye shed tears: —
21 Hagi nagri'ma navenesiana Anumzane nagri amu'nompina mago vahe mani'neno nagri nagira erino Anumzanena nanekea haniegu nehue.
That one might plead, for a man, with GOD, —Even a son of man, for his friend!
22 Na'ankure nagrama fri'nama fri vahe kumategama nevuna, ete omesua kafua osi'a me'ne.
When, a few years, come, then, by a path by which I shall not return, shall I depart.
