< 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 mine eye abideth in 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 else 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 hast hid their heart from understanding; therefore shalt Thou 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 that denounceth his friends for the sake of flattery, even the eyes of his children shall fail.
6 Hagi vahe amu'nompina Anumzamo'a nagrira nazeri kizazokago zankna higeno, vahe'mo'za navugosafina zamavetura ahenante'za vano nehaze.
He hath made me also a byword of the people; and I am become one in whose face they spit.
7 Hanki zavi'ma atoa zamo higeno navumo'a zorege'na, nagra oza'oza hu'na vahe amema'agna nehue.
Mine eye also is dimmed by reason of vexation, 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 are astonished at this, and the innocent stirreth up himself against 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.
Yet the righteous holdeth on his way, and he that hath clean hands waxeth 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, do ye return, and come now; 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 is short because of 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 the nether-world 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 art my father', to the worm: 'Thou art 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 )
They shall go down to the bars of the nether-world, when we are at rest together in the dust. (Sheol )
