1 Ana'ma hutegeno'a Jopu'a agira reaka huno nerera'ma kasente'nea knamofona hu haviza hunteno,
After this Job began speaking, cursing the day of his birth.
2 amanage huno hu'ne,
He said,
3 nenarera'ma kasenante'nea knamo'a omanegeno, ese'ma nenarera arimpafima fore'ma nehugeno ne' fore hugahie hu'nea kenagemo'a omaneasina knare hisine.
“Wipe out the day I was born, and the night when it was announced that a boy had been conceived.
4 Hagi atregeno e'i ana knamo'a hani fore nehigeno, zagemo'a remsa hunontegeno Anumzamo'enema ana knama kegavama osiresina knare hisine.
Turn that day to darkness. God above should not remember it. Don't let light shine on it.
5 Hagi e'i ana knama kumazu hanimo'ma kintrako nehigeno, hampoma kino refitentegeno hanintirima huno ana knama azeri koroma hiasina knare hisine.
Take it back, darkness and death-shadow. A black cloud should overshadow it. It should be as terrifying as the darkness of an eclipse during the day.
6 Hagi e'i ana kenage'ma fore'ma hu'noa kenage'ma fore osigeno, mago kafumofo knaramima nehamprizafina ohamprige, ikamofo knama hamprizafina ohamprizaresina knare hisine.
Blot out that night as if it never existed. Don't count it on the calendar. Don't let it have a day in any month.
7 Hagi e'i ana kenagera kasefa mofavrea forera osigeno, vahe'mo'za musena osazasina knare hisine.
Let that night be childless, with no sounds of happiness heard.
8 Hagi kazusima huzante'ma ugotama hu'naza vahe'mo'zama kazusima hazageno, hagerimpima tusizaga krokotairima azeri oneti'za ana knama kazusima huntazaresina knare hisine.
Those who place curses on certain days should curse it, those who have the power to raise Leviathan.
9 Hagi ko'matu hanafimo'a remsa huontegeno, masagura amuhara hugahianagi, amnezampi amuhara nehuno nanterama segeno'ma ko'manetia zana onkeresina knare hisine.
Its early morning stars should stay dark. Looking for light, may none come, may it not see the glimmer of dawn
10 Hagi ana knarera nenrerana arimpa erigigeno, kaseonantege'na ama hazenkeramina onkoasina knare hisine.
for it did not shut my mother's womb to prevent me from seeing trouble.
11 Hagi nagra nerera agu'afima fri'nogeno kasenantege, kasemanantea kna zupama fruresina knare hisine.
Why wasn't I stillborn? Why didn't I die at birth?
12 Nahigeno nenrera'a amotera navrentege'na mani'nogeno ami'na nami'ne?
Why was there a lap for me to lie on, or breasts for me to suck?
13 Hagi nenrera'ma kasemanantea knazupama frusina, menina mago knazana onke fri'na knare hu'na mani fru husine.
For now I would be lying down in peace. I would be sleeping and at rest,
14 Kini vahetamine, mago mago mopare'ma kegavama hu'naza vahetamima frizageno'ma knare nonkumazmimo'ma menima havizama huno me'nea vahetaminema frina umanigasa huresina knare hiresine.
along with the kings of this world and their officials whose palaces now lie in ruins,
15 Ana nehu'na goline silvanema nozmifima antevite'naza ugagota kva vahetmimo'zama fri'naza vahe'enema menina manigasa huresina knare hisine.
or with noblemen who collected gold and filled their houses with silver.
16 Hagi nahigeno nenarera'a fri mofavrea kasenantege'na masa onke'na ofri'noe?
Why wasn't I a miscarriage, buried in secret, a baby who never saw the light?
17 Na'ankure kefo avu'ava'ma nehaza vahe'mo'zane nomani zampima amuhoma nehu'za maraguzamati'za e'naza vahe'mo'zanena fri vahe kumapina mani fru nehaze.
There in the grave the wicked give no more trouble, and those whose strength is gone have their rest.
18 Hagi kazokzo eri'zama e'neriza vahe'mo'zama fri'za fri vahe kumapima vazana, kegava huzmante vahera omanizage'za knare hu'za ana kumapina mani fru nehaze.
There prisoners take it easy—they don't hear the commands of their oppressors.
19 Feno vahe'ene zamunte omne vahe'enena anampi manizageno, kazo kazo eri'za vahetmina kvazmia omani'ne.
Both small and great are there, and slaves are freed from their masters.
20 Nagafare knazampima mani'naza vahe'ene hazenkefima nemaniza vahera tavira nezaminka nomanizazmimo'ma amuhoma nehia vahera zamatranke'za zamasimura eri'za nemanize?
Why does God give life to those who are suffering, living bitterly miserable lives,
21 Fri'zanku'ma avega antaza vahe'mo'za nofrize. Hagi knare zama mopa agu'afima me'nege'za keri kafi'za hakazaza hu'za fri'zankura nehakraze.
those who are waiting for death that does not come and who are looking for death more desperately than hunting for treasure?
22 Hagi ana vahe'ma frizage'za asezmantage'za tusi muse nehaze.
They're so incredibly happy when the reach the grave!
23 Nagafare nomani zamo'ma amuhoma huntea vahera remsa hunteno Anumzamo'a asimura amigeno mani'negeno, hazenkezanura azeri kanegie?
Why is light given to someone who doesn't know where they're going, someone God has fenced in?
24 Ra nasimu'ma nente'na kragi'ma neruna zavi'ma atoazamo'a tinkna huno navunumo'a herafiramige'na ne'zana one'noe.
My groans are the bread I eat; my raging tears are the water I drink.
25 Koro'ma hunentoa zamo navatera ne-egeno, nagogogu'ma nehua zamo nagritera fore huno nazeri haviza nehie.
For all that I feared has happened to me; everything that I dreaded has come upon me.
26 Nagra mani fru hu'na manirava nohe'na manigasa nosuanki, hazenkefi manivava nehue.
I have no peace, no quiet, no rest. All that comes is rage.”
