< Jovu 17 >
1 Hagi hanavenimo'a evuramigeno, knani'amo'a eme upa nehigeno, vahe'ma asente matimo'a navega anteno me'ne.
My spirit is consumed, my days are extinct, the grave is ready for me.
2 Hagi nagri'ma huhaviza hunenantaza vahe'mo'za nazeri kagi'za mani'ne'za, hunte'za ki'za zokago kea hunenantazage'na mani'ne'na nezmagoe.
Surely there are mockers with me, and my eye dwells upon their provocation.
3 Hagi nagrira hazenkeni'a omneneanki, Anumzamoka naza huo. Na'ankure mago vahe'mo'a otino naza hugara osu'ne.
Give now a pledge, be surety for me with thyself. Who is there that will strike hands with me?
4 Kagra antahintahizmia eriginke'za ama ana zana antahi amara nosaze. E'ina hu'negu zamatrege'za kefintira nazeri havizana hu'za nagateoreho.
For thou have hid their heart from understanding. Therefore thou shall not exalt them.
5 Zamagra'a knare zanku nentahi'za, aronezmia zamazeri haviza nehaze. E'ina hu'negu mofavrezimia zamatrege'za, zamagaku nehu'za friho.
He who denounces his friends for a prey, even the eyes of his sons shall fail.
6 Hagi vahe amu'nompina Anumzamo'a nagrira nazeri kizazokago zankna higeno, vahe'mo'za navugosafina zamavetura ahenante'za vano nehaze.
But he has made me a byword of the people, and they spit in my face.
7 Hanki zavi'ma atoa zamo higeno navumo'a zorege'na, nagra oza'oza hu'na vahe amema'agna nehue.
My eye also is dim because of sorrow, and all my members are as a shadow.
8 Hagi fatgo zamavu'zmava'ma nehaza vahe'mo'za ama anazama nege'za, antri hu'za zamagogogu nehazage'za, hazenke'zmima omne vahe'mo'za Anumzamofoma amage'ma nontaza vahera ha' renezmantaze.
Upright men shall be astonished at this, and the innocent shall stir himself up against the profane.
9 Ana nehu'za fatgo zamavu'zma'ma nehaza vahe'mo'za rukrahera osu, fatgo zamavu'zmavama nehaza vahe'mo'za zamavu'zmavara hu'za nevazageno, zamazampima pehena okamare maka zupa fatgo avu'ava'ma hu'zampina hage'za mareneri'za ome hankaveti'za nevaze.
Yet the righteous shall hold on his way. And he who has clean hands shall grow stronger and stronger.
10 Hianagi mika'mota atreta rukrahe huta eho, tamagri amu'nompina knare antahi'zane vahera hakre'na eri forera osu'noe.
But as for you all, come on now again, and I shall not find a wise man among you.
11 Nagrira knani'a vagaregeno amuha zani'a omane. Ana higeno nagesama antahi'na hugahuema hu'na retroma hu'noa zamo'a amare eme vagare.
My days are past. My purposes are broken off, even the thoughts of my heart.
12 Hagi ama vahe'mo'za ferukura eri rukrahe hu'za kenagere nehu'za, kenagekura ferure hu'za nehu'za, hanintirima hiazankura masa hu'ne hu'za nehaze.
They change the night into day. The light, they say, is near to the darkness.
13 Nagra fri vahe kumapima tafe'ma hu'na hanintirima hu'nefima masoresina knare hisine. Hanki hanimpima tafeni'ama rutare'na masina masogeno'a, knare hisine. (Sheol )
If I look for Sheol as my house, if I have spread my couch in the darkness, (Sheol )
14 Hagi fri vahe matiku'ma hu'na kagra nenfage nehu'na, hagirafagu'ma hu'na, kagra nenrerage hu'na huge, nensarogema huasina knare hisine.
if I have said to corruption, Thou are my father, to the worm, My mother, and my sister,
15 Hagi amuha zani'a iga me'ne? Iza amuha zani'a hakeno eri fore hugahie.
where then is my hope? And as for my hope, who shall see it?
16 Hagi amuha zanimo'a fri vahe kuma kafante uramigahifi? Tagranena kugusopafi uramigahuno? (Sheol )
It shall go down to the bars of Sheol when once there is rest in the dust. (Sheol )
