1 Hagi hanavenimo'a evuramigeno, knani'amo'a eme upa nehigeno, vahe'ma asente matimo'a navega anteno me'ne.
My spirit is crushed; my life is extinguished; 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.
Mockers surround me. I see how bitterly they ridicule me.
3 Hagi nagrira hazenkeni'a omneneanki, Anumzamoka naza huo. Na'ankure mago vahe'mo'a otino naza hugara osu'ne.
God, you need to put down a pledge for me with yourself, for who else will be my guarantor?
4 Kagra antahintahizmia eriginke'za ama ana zana antahi amara nosaze. E'ina hu'negu zamatrege'za kefintira nazeri havizana hu'za nagateoreho.
You have closed their minds to understanding, so do not let them win!
5 Zamagra'a knare zanku nentahi'za, aronezmia zamazeri haviza nehaze. E'ina hu'negu mofavrezimia zamatrege'za, zamagaku nehu'za friho.
They betray friends to gain benefit for themselves and their children suffer for it.
6 Hagi vahe amu'nompina Anumzamo'a nagrira nazeri kizazokago zankna higeno, vahe'mo'za navugosafina zamavetura ahenante'za vano nehaze.
He has made me a proverb of ridicule among the people; 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 eyes are worn out from crying and my body is a shadow of its former self.
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.
People who think they are good are shocked to see me. Those who are innocent are troubled by the godless.
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.
Those who are right keep going, and those whose hands are clean 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.
Why don't you come back and repeat again what you've been saying?—yet I still won't 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 life is over. My plans are gone. My heart is broken.
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 turn night into day, and say that daylight is close to 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 h7585)
What am I looking for? To make my home in Sheol, to make my bed in darkness? (Sheol h7585)
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.
Should I call the grave my father, and the maggot my mother or my sister?
15 Hagi amuha zani'a iga me'ne? Iza amuha zani'a hakeno eri fore hugahie.
So then where is my hope? Can anyone see any hope for me?
16 Hagi amuha zanimo'a fri vahe kuma kafante uramigahifi? Tagranena kugusopafi uramigahuno? (Sheol h7585)
Will hope go down with me to the gates of Sheol? Will we go down together into the dust?” (Sheol h7585)
