“Job, tell us(exc) what we should say to God; we do not know anything [IDM]. As a result, we do not know what to say to him to defend ourselves.
20 Nagrama mago nanekema hunaku'ma nehanugeno'a, mago'a Anumzamofona asami'nageno agesa ante'neno keagani'a antahi so'ea hugahifi? I'o anara osuno nagrira nazeri haviza hugahie.
Should I tell God that I want to speak to him? No, because [if I did that, ] he might destroy me.
21 Monafima me'nea hampoma zahomo'ma eri papama hutrenigeno, zagemo'ma tusiza huno amuhoma hanigeta, zagefina tavua onketfa hugahune.
Now, people cannot look [directly] at the sun when it shines brightly in the sky after the wind has blown the clouds away; [so, we certainly cannot look at the brightness of God].
22 E'ina avamente noti kazigati'ma tusi'a tavi'ma ne-ea tavimofo masa'amo'a goligna nehie. E'i Anumzankino avasase zama'amo azeri kaginte'negeno, hankavenentake masa zama'afi ne-e.
God comes out of the north with a light [that shines like] gold; his glory causes us to be afraid.
23 Hankavenentake Anumzamofona tusi'a hihamu'a me'neankita, Agri avatera erava'oa osugahune. Hianagi Agra fatgo huno refko nehia Anumza mani'neankino, tazeri havizana nosie.
Almighty God is very powerful, and we cannot come near to him. He always acts righteously, and he will never oppress us.
24 Anama hiazamo hige'za vahe'mo'za Agrira koro hunentaze. Hagi ama' antahi'zane vahe mani'nonema hu'zama nehaza vahera antahi nozamie.
That is the reason that we have an awesome respect for him; he does not pay attention to those who proudly, [but wrongly], think that they are wise.”
