Jovu 7
1 Vahe'mofo nomani'zamo'a ama mopafina amuho nehie. Hagi nomani zantimo'a, vahe'mo'ma amuhoma huno zago eri'zama eriankna huno tusi amuho nehie.
The life of a man on the earth is a battle, and his days are like the days of a hired hand.
2 Nagafare nomani'zantimo'a kazokzo eri'za vahe'mo'za zagefi eri'za e'neri'za tonaku hakrazankna nehigeno, eri'za vahe'mo'za mizazmi e'ori'ne'za miza zimigu avega ante'za manizanknara nehie.
Just as a servant desires the shade, and just as the hired hand looks forward to the end of his work,
3 E'ina hu'negu Anumzamo'a natrege'na rama'a ikampina knare osu nomani'zana mani'na ne-e'na maka kenagera narimpagna nehu'na nasu zampinena mani'na neoe.
so also have I had empty months and have counted my burdensome nights.
4 Hagi kenage'ma mase'ne'na, inankna huno ame huno masa hugahie ha hu'na mase rukrahe rukrahe hu'noe. Hianagi ana hanimo'a, ame hunora masa huno kora otu'ne.
If I lie down to sleep, I will say, “When will I rise?” And next I will hope for the evening and will be filled with sorrows even until darkness.
5 Hagi navufafina kanimo'a nehigeno namu rifamo'a hantohanto hu'negeno hagege huno hananahanunu hu'ne. Ana nehigeno namumo'a navufafina pro nehigeno avo'mo'a ana namuntamimpintira tusi'za hu'ne.
My flesh is clothed with particles of rottenness and filth; my skin is dried up and tightened.
6 Hagi knama mani'na oanknamo'a ame huno evuevu nehuno, kukenama nehatia nekazamo'ma ame huno'ma kukenafima marerino atiramino'ma nehiaza huno enevige'na, knamaregahue hu'na ontahi'noe.
My days have passed by more quickly than threads are cut by a weaver, and they have been consumed without any hope.
7 Anumzamoka kagera okanio, nasimu'ma eri'na mani'zamo'a asimu'ma anteankna higeno knare muse zana mago'ane onkegahue.
Remember that my life is wind, and my eye will not return to see good things.
8 Menima nenagaza vahe'mo'za zazakna onagegosaze. Nagrikura hakegahazanagi, nagra omani ko' vugahue.
Neither will the sight of man gaze upon me; your eyes are upon me, and I will not endure.
9 Hampoma kiteno'ma kiragama hiankna hu'za fri'za fri vahe kumapima vanaza vahe'mo'za ome fanane hugahaze. (Sheol h7585)
Just as a cloud is consumed and passes away, so he who descends to hell will not ascend. (Sheol h7585)
10 Hagi mago'anena noma'arega ome'nige'za, vahe'mo'za onkegahaze.
He will not return again to his house, nor will his own place know him any longer.
11 E'ina hu'negu nagra nagira hamunki'na omanigosuanki, nagu'afima me'nea nata zana huama nehu'na, narimpa haviza hu'zana huama hugahue.
And because of this, I will not restrain my mouth. I will speak in the affliction of my spirit. I will converse from the bitterness of my soul.
12 Nagra hageri mani'nena, hagerimpi tusi zaga mani'nogenka kegava hunantetenka mani'nano?
Am I an ocean or a whale, that you have encircled me in a prison?
13 Hianagi nagrama antahuana tafe'niare'ma masenua zamo'a nazeri knare nehanigeno, navu'ma mase'zamo narimpa knama hu'na ke hakarema nehuazana eritregahie hu'na nagesa antahi'noe.
If I say, “My bed will comfort me, and I will find rest, speaking with myself on my blanket,”
14 Hianagi ava'nanifina nazeri nagogonefenka, avanagna zampina nazeri koro hane.
then you will frighten me with dreams, and strike dread through visions,
15 E'ina higu nata e'ori snuanki nanankena nazeri porari hanage'na fri'neno.
so that, because of these things, my soul would choose hanging, and my bones, death.
16 Nasimu'ma eri'na mani'zankura tusiza huno navresra hianki, natrege'na zazatera mani'na ova'neno.
I despair; by no means will I live any longer. Spare me, for my days are nothing.
17 Vahera nankna zaga mani'nonkenka, hakare zupa vahe'motagura kagesa are'arerara nehane?
What is man, that you should praise him? Or why do you place your heart near him?
18 Nagafare Kagra mika nanterane, mika knama enevigenka ame hunka rerahenka ketere nehane?
You visit him at dawn, and you test him unexpectedly.
19 Kagra amnerega kavua keamne hunka negenka, osi'a kna natresanke'na nagrena nakrigahufi?
How long will you not spare me, nor release me to ingest my saliva?
20 Maka vahete'ma kavuma antenka negana ne'moka, kagri kavure'ma nagra kumi'ma hu'ne'nuana, na'a kumi hu'nogenka ke'nane? Nagafare kagra kavua nagritera antetenka mani'nane?
I have sinned; what should I do for you, O keeper of men? Why have you set me against you, so that I have become burdensome even to myself?
21 Nahigenka Kagra kumi'ni'a atre nonantenka, kefo avu'ava zani'a eri notrane? Na'ankure nagra kofa hu'na fri'na kugusopafina mase'nugenka nagrikura hakegahananagi, nagra ko vanugenka onagegosane.
Why do you not steal away my sin, and why do you not sweep away my iniquity? Behold, now I will sleep in the dust, and if you seek me in the morning, I will not remain.
