1 Hagi Elihu'a mago'ene amanage hu'ne,
And Elihu made answer and said,
2 Knare antahi'zama eri'nana ne'moka nagrama hanua nanekere kagesa antenka nentahinka, ama' antahi'zama eri'nana ne'moka nagrama hanua nanekea akohenka mani'nenka antahio.
Give ear, you wise, to my words; and you who have knowledge, give attention to me;
3 Hagi ne'zama tagite erinteta haga'ama neta konaza huno, maka nanekema tagesamo'ma antahia nanekea, tagesamo'a rezagane so'e huno nentahie.
For words are tested by the ear, as food is tasted by the mouth.
4 E'ina hu'negu inagemo fatgo huno knare hu'nefi tagra'a rezaganeta negeta, rempi huta antahisune.
Let us make the decision for ourselves as to what is right; let us have the knowledge among ourselves of what is good.
5 Hagi Jopu'ma kema hifina anage hu'ne, nagrira ke'ni'a omane'neanagi, Anumzamo'a kema hu kankamuni'a eri atrege'na mago zana osu'noe huno hu'ne.
For Job has said, I am upright, and it is God who has taken away my right;
6 Nagrira mago hazenke'ni'a omanegeno keni'a omane'ne. Hianagi vahe'mo'za nagrikura havige ne' mani'ne hu'za nehaze. Nagrira kumini'a omane'neanagi natama namino nevia natazamo'a vagaoresnia avamente nevie.
Though I am right, still I am in pain; my wound may not be made well, though I have done no wrong.
7 Hagi magora Jopukna nera iza mani'ne. Agra kizazokago ke huno vahe'ma zamaveri hu kege nehia ne' mani'ne.
What man is like Job, a man who freely makes sport of God,
8 Ana nehuno Jopu'a kumi'ma nehaza vahe'ene eri mago huno nemanino, kefo avu'ava'ma nehaza vahe'ene kna ahefrino nemanie.
And goes in the company of evil-doers, walking in the way of sinners?
9 Na'ankure Jopu'a huno, Anumzamofoma musema huntesnampintira mago zana e'origahane huno hu'ne.
For he has said, It is no profit to a man to take delight in God.
10 E'ina hu'negu ama' antahi'zama eri'naza vahe'mota nagri naneke antahiho. Maka vahe'mo'zama antahi'nazana Anumzamo'a havi avu'avara nosia ne' mani'ne hu'za antahi'naze. Ana hu'neankino Hankavenentake Anumzamo'a mago hazenkea osugahie.
Now then, you wise, take note; you men of knowledge, give ear to me. Let it be far from God to do evil, and from the Ruler of all to do wrong.
11 Vahe'mo'zama hu'naza avu'avate anteno rezaganeno negeno, mizana zamitere nehia Anumza mani'ne.
For he gives to every man the reward of his work, and sees that he gets the fruit of his ways.
12 Tamagerfa huno Hankavenentake Anumzamo'a mago hazenke zana osugahie. Ana hu'neankino Hanavenentake Anumzamo'a fatgo huno refkoa hugahie.
Truly, God does not do evil, and the Ruler of all is not a false judge.
13 Iza ama mopa tro huteno, kegava huo huno Anumzamofonkura hunte'ne?
Who put the earth into his care, or made him responsible for the world?
14 Hagi Anumzamo'ma Agra'a avamu'ene, asimu'anema ete eriresina,
If he made his spirit come back to him, taking his breath into himself again,
15 maka asimu'ma enerino kasefa'ma huno nemania zagamo'a fri vaganeregeno, maka vahe'mo'za fri'za ete mopasazaresine.
All flesh would come to an end together, and man would go back to the dust.
16 E'ina hu'negu Jopuga ama' antahi'zane vahe mani'noema hunka hanunka, nagrama nehua nanekere kagesa ante'nenka antahio.
If you are wise, take note of this; give ear to the voice of my words.
17 Kagrama antahinana fatgo avu'ava zanku'ma avesrama hiresina, Anumzamo'a ama mopa kegava hunora viresimpi? E'ina hu'negu Hankave nentake huno fatgoma hu'nea Anumzamo'ma refko'ma hania zantera, mago hazenke hu'ne hunka huamara huntegahampi?
How may a hater of right be a ruler? and will you say that the upright Ruler of all is evil?
18 Anumzamo'a kini vahekura huno, mago zana huga vahera omani'naze nehuno, zamagima me'nea vahekura huno havi avu'avaza nehaza vahe mani'naze huno nehie.
He who says to a king, You are an evil-doer; and to rulers, You are sinners;
19 Anumzamo maka vahera Agra'a tro huzmante'neankino, agi me'nea vahe'ene zago vahekukera nehuno, zamagi omne vahe'ene zamunte omne vahera zamage amne zanknara nosianki, Agri avurera mago avamenteke mani'naze.
Who has no respect for rulers, and who gives no more attention to those who have wealth than to the poor, for they are all the work of his hands.
20 Vahe'mo'za osi'a knafi ame hu'za nefrize. Kenage amu'nompi friza nevazageno, hankave vahera Anumzamo'a zamahe nefrie.
Suddenly they come to an end, even in the middle of the night: the blow comes on the men of wealth, and they are gone, and the strong are taken away without the hand of man.
21 Na'ankure maka vahe'mo'zama haza zana Anumzamo'a negeno, maka avu'ava zama hazana nege.
For his eyes are on the ways of a man, and he sees all his steps.
22 Hanima nehia zamo'a Anumzamofo avua resoa osanigeno, maka kumira amate kegahie.
There is no dark place, and no thick cloud, in which the workers of evil may take cover.
23 E'ina hu'negu tagra kna huhampri'neta ana knarera esanunkeno, Anumzamo'a refkoa huorantegahie.
For he does not give man a fixed time to come before him to be judged.
24 Anumzamo'a mago hankave vahe'ma azeri havizama hunakura, vahera antahigeteno anara nosie. Ana'ma nehuno'a ana vahe nontera ruvahe azeri o'netie.
He sends the strong to destruction without searching out their cause, and puts others in their place.
25 Ana vahe'mo'za nehaza zamavu zmavara keno antahino hu'ne. Ana hu'neankino kenageke'za ana vahera zamahe fanane nehie.
For he has knowledge of their works, overturning them in the night, so that they are crushed.
26 Hagi havi vahe'mo'zama zamavu'zmava zama hu'naza zamofo nona'a, amate zamazeri haviza nehige'za vahe'mo'za nezamagaze.
The evil-doers are broken by his wrath, he puts his hand on them with force before the eyes of all onlookers.
27 Anama nehiana na'ankure Anumzamo'ma hihoma huno hiazana nosu'za, Agri kasegema amage'ma nontaza zanku anara nehie.
Because they did not go after him, and took no note of his ways,
28 Ana zamunte omne vahera zamazeri havizama hazage'zama Anumzamofontega zavi'ma nete'zama, zavi krafama nehazageno'a Anumzamo'a antahi'ne.
So that the cry of the poor might come up to him, and the prayer of those in need come to his ears.
29 Hianagi ana zante'ma Anumzamo'ma nona huno havi avu'ava'ma nehaza vahe'ma zamazeri havizama nosanigeno'a, iza huno Anumzamo'a havi avu'ava nehie? hunora hugahie. Hagi avugosama eri fra'ma nekisanigeno'a, mago vahe'mo'a keno eri forera osugahie. Hianagi Agrake mago'mago vahete'ene ama mopafima me'nea kumatamina kegava hu'ne.
30 Hagi Anumzamoke kefo avu'ava'ma nehaza vahe'mo'zama kva vahe'ma mani'ne'za vahe'ma zamavare'za havi kampima atresnage'za, kumi'ma hu'zanku huno anara nehie.
31 Hagi izaga antahi'nankeno Jopu'a Anumzamofonkura huno, nagrama hu'noa kumi'mofo nona hunka nazeri haviza nehananki, mago'enena kumira osugahue hunora hu'ne?
32 Nagrama hu'nesnua kumira eri ama hunka nasamio. Hagi nagrama havi navu'navama hu'nesnuana henka'anena anazana osugahue.
33 Anumzamo'ma Jopugama hugantea zankura kave'nosie. Ana hu'negu kagri'ma kave'nesiaza Anumzamo'a hunantesie hunka kagesa ontahio. Hianagi nagri zana omane'neanki, kagripi antahintahia me'ne. Ana hu'negu menina knare antahi'zanka'a huama hugeta antahi'maneno.
34 Hagi ama' antahi'zama eri'naza vahe'mo'zane, knare antahi'zama eri'naza vahe'mo'zama nagrama hua nanekema nentahi'za amanage hu'za nagrikura hazaresine.
Men of knowledge, and all wise men, hearing me, will say,
35 Jopu'a agafa'a omane'nea naneke nehantageno, antahintahia osu neginagi naneke nehie hu'za hazaresine.
Job's words do not come from knowledge; they are not the fruit of wisdom.
36 Jopugama kefo nanekema hu'nana zantera, Anumzamo'a tusi'a knaza kamigahie.
May Job be tested to the end, because his answers have been like those of evil men.
37 Jopu'a kumi'ma hu'nea agofetu'ma, mago'ene kumi'ma hu'neana, azante rupro huno Anumzamofona kiza zokago ke hunenteno, tagri'enena keha'nereno, Anumzamofonkura huno fatgo hunora refkoa hunonante huno keharente'ne.
For in addition to his sin, he is uncontrolled in heart; before our eyes he makes sport of God, increasing his words against him.
