Jovu 31

1 Hanki nagrama navuma kezani'afima mago huvempa kema hu'noana, mago mofa'ma negesuna havi antahintahia e'orisnue hu'na huvempa hu'noe.

“I made a covenant with my eyes; how then should I look lustfully at a young woman?

2 E'inahu havi avu'ava'zama hanugeno'a, manisgama hu'nea Hankavenentake Anumzamo'a ana havi avu'ava zanirera havi mizana namigahie.

For what is the portion from God above, and the heritage from the Almighty on high?

3 Havizama hu'za refkoma hu so'ema nosaza vahera Anumzamo'a knaza nezamino, kumi'ma haza vahetera hazenkeza atregeno ne-e.

Is it not calamity to the unrighteous, and disaster to the workers of iniquity?

4 Ana nehuno maka zama hua zampina Anumzamo'a avua anteno nenageno, nagama rerakaure'na vuana nenage.

Doesn’t he see my ways, and count all my steps?

5 Nagra mago vahera havigea hu'na revataga nosu'na, havige zantera nagia re'na ovu'noe.

“If I have walked with falsehood, and my foot has hurried to deceit

6 Atrenkeno Anumzamo'a navu'navazania erinteno, fatgoma huno refko'ma nehia sigerire negeno refko huno nageno. Na'ankure nagrama fatgo navu'nava zama nehuana Agrake keno antahino hu'ne.

(let me be weighed in an even balance, that God may know my integrity);

7 Hagi Anumzamofo kama atre'na hazama negre'na, navumo kea zante'ma havi antahintahima hu'na kumi'ma hu'nesnua kumiro, mago'a kumi'enema hu'nesnuana,

if my step has turned out of the way, if my heart walked after my eyes, if any defilement has stuck to my hands,

8 atrenkeno nagrama hankre'nesnua ne'zana, ru vahe'mo'za vasage'za neho. Hagi nagrama hankre'nesnua avimzana eri tasagi hutreho.

then let me sow, and let another eat. Yes, let the produce of my field be rooted out.

9 Hagi mago a'ma nege'na havi antahintahima eri'nesnuano, tvaonire'ma nemanisnia ne'mofo a'ma nege'na kenunuma hu'nesanuana,

“If my heart has been enticed to a woman, and I have laid wait at my neighbour’s door,

10 atrenkeno nagri a'mo'a ru vemofo a' nemanina, ru venenemo'za a'ni'a ante'za maseho.

then let my wife grind for another, and let others sleep with her.

11 Hagi nagra mago vemofo a'enema hazenkema hu'nesanuana, nagra'a tusi nagaze eri nami'noanki'na, ana kumi'ma hu'nesua zantera mizama'a nagra'a erigahue.

For that would be a heinous crime. Yes, it would be an iniquity to be punished by the judges,

12 E'i ana kumi'mo'a, mago tevegna hu'neankino, tevava huno nevuno, teve kumapi vugahie. Ana hu'neankino ana maka'zama ante'noa zana, tevemo te fanene hugahie.

for it is a fire that consumes to destruction, and would root out all my increase.

13 Hagi ko'ma nagri eri'za venenemozane a'nemo'zanema, knazamima eri'za neazage'nama, knazazamima e'orinesnuana,

“If I have despised the cause of my male servant or of my female servant, when they contended with me,

14 inankna hu'na Anumzamofo avurera nagra keagafina otigahue? Inankna hunka eri'za vaheka'a kegava hu'nane huno Anumzamo'ma nagenokama hanige'na, na'ane hu'na kenona huntegahue?

what then will I do when God rises up? When he visits, what will I answer him?

15 Na'ankure Anumzamo'a Agrake nagri'ene eri'za vahe'ni'anena, antatimofo arimpafina tro hurante'ne.

Didn’t he who made me in the womb make him? Didn’t one fashion us in the womb?

16 Hagi zamunte omane vahe'mo'zama mago'a zanku'ma kema nehazage'na, i'ora osu'na amne nezami'na, kento a'nanemo'zama zamazama hanuegu'ma nagrite'ma zamavuma nentazage'na amne zamaza nehu'na,

“If I have withheld the poor from their desire, or have caused the eyes of the widow to fail,

17 nagragukera ontahi'noanki megusa mofavreramina, ne'zana refko hu'na zami'noe.

or have eaten my morsel alone, and the fatherless has not eaten of it

18 Nagra osi'ma mani'noregati'ma eno meninte'ma e'neana, megusa mofavre nagara nafa zamigna hu'na kegava hunezmante'na, kento a'nane nagara zamaza hu'na e'noe.

(no, from my youth he grew up with me as with a father, I have guided her from my mother’s womb);

19 Hagi nonkumazmima omne vahe'ma kukenagu'ma atupa'ma nehazage'na, kukena nezami'na, mago'a zanku'ma atupa'ma nehaza vahera kukenane nakreku'enena zami'noe.

if I have seen any perish for want of clothing, or that the needy had no covering;

20 Ana nehu'na zamazeri amuhoma hanigu sipisipi azokateti'ma trohu'naza nakre kura zamuge'za antani'za amuhogu'ma nehu'za musema nehu'za, nagrira husga hunante'naze.

if his heart hasn’t blessed me, if he hasn’t been warmed with my sheep’s fleece;

21 Hagi keaga refkohu ne'mo'a, nagri kaziga antegahie nehu'na, nagra keagafina oti'na megusa mofavre naga'ma keagama huzmantesnuana,

if I have lifted up my hand against the fatherless, because I saw my help in the gate;

22 nazamo'a nazo'nafinti rutasagi huramigahie.

then let my shoulder fall from the shoulder blade, and my arm be broken from the bone.

23 Na'ankure nagrama koro'ma nehuana, Anumzamo'a knazana atreni'geno eme nazeri haviza hugahie hu'na nentahue. Hagi Anumzamo'ma hankaveareti'ma nazeri havizama nehaniana, nagrira amuhazani'a omane'ne.

For calamity from God is a terror to me. Because of his majesty, I can do nothing.

24 Hagi nagra zagofina amuha zani'a nonte'na, golimo'a naza hugahie hu'na namentintia nosue.

“If I have made gold my hope, and have said to the fine gold, ‘You are my confidence;’

25 Nagra'a nazapinti'ma erifore hu'na ante'noa zago fenokura navufga erisga nosu'na,

If I have rejoiced because my wealth was great, and because my hand had gotten much;

26 monare'ma me'neno nerea zagere'ene ikamo'ma knare zantfama huno remsama nehige'na monora huonte'na,

if I have seen the sun when it shined, or the moon moving in splendour,

27 e'i ana zantera mago narimpa hu'na monora hunonte'na, nzantetira zanahe'na antakora osu'noe.

and my heart has been secretly enticed, and my hand threw a kiss from my mouth;

28 Hanki nagrama anama hu'nesanuana kumi hu'noankino, kema refko'ma hunantesnia nemo'a knaza namigahie. Na'ankure onagamu monafinkama nemania Anumzamofontera havige hu'na eri fraki'nogu anara hugahie.

this also would be an iniquity to be punished by the judges, for I would have denied the God who is above.

29 Hagi ha' vahe'nimo'zama knazampima mani'nazage'na nezamage'na, nagra musena nehu'na zamagizana ore'noe.

“If I have rejoiced at the destruction of him who hated me, or lifted up myself when evil found him

30 Ana nehu'na magore hu'na zamazeri haviza hu nanekea hu'na kumira nosu'na, havizama hunante'nazarera nona osu'noe.

(I have certainly not allowed my mouth to sin by asking his life with a curse);

31 Hagi nagri nompima nemaniza eri'za vahe'nimo'za hu'za, maka eri'za vahe'a ne'zana nezamino magore huno zamatrege'za amnea novaza ne' mani'ne hu'za nagrikura nehaze.

if the men of my tent have not said, ‘Who can find one who has not been filled with his meat?’

32 Nagra ozamageno'a vahe'ma nonire'ma azage'na magore hu'na zamatroge'za megira omase'nazanki, kahana anagi hagaro nehu'na, zamavare nompi antoge'za maka zupa mase'naze.

(the foreigner has not camped in the street, but I have opened my doors to the traveller);

33 Mago'a vahe'mo'zama nehazaza hu'na kumi'ni'a nagu'afina eri frakinaku hu'noanagi, anara osu'noe.

if like Adam I have covered my transgressions, by hiding my iniquity in my heart,

34 Hagi rama'a vahe'mo'zama nenage'za, kiza zokago kema hunenantesage'za, naga'nimo'zama eme nasami'zankura korera hu'na nompina omani'noe.

because I feared the great multitude, and the contempt of families terrified me, so that I kept silence, and didn’t go out of the door—

35 Hagi nagra nagesama antahuana, nagrama nehuankema mago vahe'mo'ma agesama anteno antahiresina knare hisine. Nagra nazanko avona ama antoanki atre'nenkeno Hankavenentake Anumzamo negeno kenona hunanteno. Hagi mago vahe'mo'ma nagri'ma keagama hunantenaku'ma hanuno'a avompi krenteno.

oh that I had one to hear me! Behold, here is my signature! Let the Almighty answer me! Let the accuser write my indictment!

36 Anama hanige'na muse nehu'na ana avona nazo'nare erigofi'na vano nehu'na, kini fetori'ma hiaza hu'na nasenire antanigahue.

Surely I would carry it on my shoulder, and I would bind it to me as a crown.

37 Ana nehu'na kini vahe'mofo mofavremo'ma hiaza hu'na, Anumzamofo avuga uoti'na nagra'ama maka navu'nava zama hu'nesanuana ome eri ama hu'na asamigahue.

I would declare to him the number of my steps. I would go near to him like a prince.

38 Hagi mopa'nimo'ma haviza hu'nane huno'ma keagama hunantenigeno, hoza tinkamo'a tusi zavi'netenigeno,

If my land cries out against me, and its furrows weep together;

39 mago vahe'mofo hozafinti ne'za musufa sege, ana hozamofo nefa ahe frige'ma hu'nesanuana,

if I have eaten its fruits without money, or have caused its owners to lose their life,

40 anama eri nafa'ama hu'nesanua mopafina witimo'a ohesianki ave've trazamoke hageno marenerisanigeno, amne tra'zamo balimofo nona erino hageno marerigahie. Ama ana nanekema huvagareteno'a, Jopua kea osu'ne.

let briers grow instead of wheat, and stinkweed instead of barley.” The words of Job are ended.
