Jovu 23

1 Hanki Jopu'a amanage huno kenona hu'ne.

Then Job answered,

2 Nagrira menina mani'zanimo'a amuho nehige'na keha regahuanki'na, rentarako hune'na karagira orugahue.

"Even today my complaint is rebellious. His hand is heavy in spite of my groaning.

3 Anumzamo'ma mani'nea kuma'ma nagrama ke'noresina, Agrama mani'nea kumapi menina vusine.

Oh that I knew where I might find him. That I might come even to his seat.

4 Anama hute'na kegagani'a Agri avure eri'na vute'na, nazama huno keagani'ma refko huno antahinogura kehara ome husine.

I would set my cause in order before him, and fill my mouth with arguments.

5 Anama hute'na keaganire'ma nonama huno keagama nasamisnia nanekea antahi ama' huresine.

I would know the words which he would answer me, and understand what he would tell me.

6 Anumzamo'a Agra tusi'a hankave'areti hara renanteno, nazeri havizana hugahifi? I'o anara osu nagri nanekerera agesa ante'neno antahi so'e hisine.

Would he contend with me in the greatness of his power? No, but he would listen to me.

7 Hagi nagrama fatgo vahe'ma mani'nenugeno refko huno nenageno, Agrama hazenkea omane'ne hanige'na mani vava hu'na vusine.

There the upright might reason with him, so I should be delivered forever from my judge.

8 Zage hanati kaziga hake'na vuanagi onke'noe. Zage fre kaziga hake'na vuanagi Anumzamofona onke'noe.

"If I go east, he is not there; if west, I can't find him;

9 Noti kaziga hake'na vu'noanagi, Anumzamo'a fraki'nege'na onke'noe. Sauti kaziga hake'na vu'noanagi navumo'a onketfa hu'ne.

He works to the north, but I can't see him. He turns south, but I can't catch a glimpse of him.

10 Hianagi nagrama kama vanoma huana, nageno antahino hu'ne. Ana hu'neankino renaheno'ma kesanige'na, tevefima golima krazageno avusesema hiaza hugahue.

But he knows the way that I take. When he has tried me, I shall come forth like gold.

11 Na'ankure maka zupa nagra Anumzamofo kante nagia rente'na vano nehu'na, Agri avu'ava'za amage nente'na, ru kantera vugantigma nosue.

My foot has held fast to his steps. I have kept his way, and not turned aside.

12 Anumzamofo kasegea namefira huomi'na amage ante'noe. Ana nehu'na ne'zama hiaza hu'na naneke'a erintogeno nagu'afi me'ne.

I haven't gone back from the commandment of his lips. I have treasured up the words of his mouth more than my necessary food.

13 Hianagi Agrake Anumzana mani'neankino nazano hunaku'ma haniazana amne hanigeno, mago vahe'mo'a retro'ma hania antahintahi'a eri otregahie.

But he stands alone, and who can oppose him? What his soul desires, even that he does.

14 Ana hu'neankino nazano nagrite'ma tro hugahue huno antahintahima hu'nesniazana amne hugahie. Na'ankure nagri'ma hunantesiazana rama'a zantami retro hunte'neankino, Agrake keno antahino hu'ne.

For he performs that which is appointed for me. Many such things are with him.

15 Ana hu'neanki'na menina Agri avurera tusi nahirahi nerege'na, Agri hankavegu'ma nagesama nentahi'na tusi koro nehue.

Therefore I am terrified at his presence. When I consider, I am afraid of him.

16 Anumzamo'a maka hankaveni'a eri netreno, Hankavenentake Anumzamo'a Agra nazeri koro nagesa hu'ne.

For God has made my heart faint. Shaddai has terrified me.

17 Hanizamo eme nazeri kagige'na hanizampi havizantfa hu'na mani'noanagi, kea tagane'na omanigahue.

Because I was not cut off before the darkness, neither did he cover the thick darkness from my face.
