1 Hagi anante Sua kumateti ne' Bildati'a amanage huno Jopuna kenona hunte'ne,
Then responded Bildad the Shuhite, and said: —
2 Hago zazate ama nanekea hane. Kagipinti'ma atiramia nanekemo'a, tusi'a zahokna hie.
How long wilt thou speak these things? Or, as a mighty wind, shall be the sayings of thy mouth?
3 Anumzamo'a fatgo huno refkoma hu avu'ava zana eri arukrahera huno havi avu'ava zana hugahifi? Hihamu'ane Anumzamo'a fatgoma hu'nenia zana, eri arukrahera hugahifi?
Should, GOD, pervert justice? Or, the Almighty, pervert righteousness?
4 Hagi mofavre nagatamimo'zama Anumzamofo avure'ma kumi'ma hazageno'a, ana kumi'zmimofo nona'a ana hazenkefi zamavarenente.
Though, thy children, sinned against him, and he delivered them into the hand of their transgression,
5 Hianagi kagrama Anumzamofontegama nunamuma hunka Hihamu'ane Anumzamo'ma asunku'ma hugantesigu'ma antahinegenka,
Yet, if, thou thyself, wilt diligently seek unto GOD, —and, unto the Almighty, wilt make supplication;
6 kavukva zampina fatgo hunka nemaninka, fatgo zanke'ma hanankeno'a, Anumzamo'a tamage huno tra'aretira otino ete kazeri so'e hanigenka, ko'ma mani'nana kante manigahane.
If, pure and upright, thou thyself, art, surely, now, will he answer thy prayer, and will prosper thy righteous habitation:
7 E'ina hanigenka ko'ma ante'nanazana agaterenka rama'a zantami antegahane.
So shall thy beginning appear small, —when, thy latter end, he shall greatly increase!
8 Hagi korapa knafima mani'zama e'naza vahetami zmantahigenka negenka, tagehe'zama mani'zama e'naza nomani'zana negenka rempi hunka antahio.
For inquire, I pray thee, of a former generation, and prepare thyself for the research of their fathers; —
9 Na'ankure tagra meni vahe mani'nonkeno, knatimo'a atupa hu'neankita, mago zana antahita keta osu'none. Ana hu'neankino zagemo'ma rentegeno amema'amo'ma fore huteno ame huno'ma fanenema hiankna huta frigahune.
For, of yesterday, are, we, and cannot know, for, a shadow, are our days upon earth:
10 Hianagi ko'ma mani'za e'naza vahe'mo'za rempi hugamigahaze. Zamagra korapa vahetmimofo knare antahintahi eri'nazanki'za ana antahintahia rempi hugamigahaze.
Shall, they, not teach thee—tell thee, and, out of their memory, bring forth words?
11 Varozamo'a (Papyrus) hapa'ma hu'nesia mopafina knare huno hagegahie. Hagi hapapi uha trazamo'a tima omnenenifina knare huno hagegahio?
Can the paper-reed grow up, without a marsh? Or the rush grow up, without water?
12 Hagi hapapi varozamo'a zahufama amosrema nehenigeno ana mopafima me'nenia timo'ma hagegema hinkeno'a, ame huno hagege hugahianagi mago'a trazamo'za ame hu'za hagegea osugahaze.
Though while still, in its freshness, it be not plucked off, yet, before any kind of grass, it doth wither:
13 Anumzamofoma zamage'nama hunemiza vahe'mokizmire'ma, amuha'ma nehaza zamo'a amane zankna hugahie.
So, shall be the latter end of all who forget GOD, and, the hope of the impious, shall perish:
14 Hagi hankave'a omne zante'ma, amuha'ma nehaza vahe'mo'za pamponkemofo nofiteti eri anafru hu'za eramiza haviza hugahaze.
Whose trust shall be contemptible, —and, a spider’s web, his confidence:
15 Nontimo tagu'vazigahie hu'za zamagra azeri akona hugahazanagi, ana zamo'a za'zatera menora ovugahie.
He leaneth upon his house, and it will not stand, he holdeth it fast, and it will not remain erect.
16 Hagi Anumzamofoma amagema nontaza vahe'mo'za zagema ohanatinegeno, timo'ma avite'nea mopafi me'nea tra'zamo'ma hozafima agatama reno vuno eno'ma hiaza zamagra nehaze.
Full of moisture he is, before the sun, and, over his garden, his shoot goeth forth:
17 Hagi ana trazamofo arafu'namo'a hageno havere ome azeri antrako nehie.
Over a heap, his roots are entwined, a place of stones, he descrieth;
18 Hianagi ana tra'zama eri vatitresageno'a, ana mopamo'a avresra hunenteno nagra kagrira onkage'noane huno hugahie.
If one destroy him out of his place, then will it disown him [saying] —I have not seen thee.
19 Hagi havi avu'ava'ma nehaza vahe'mo'za osi'a knafi musena hute'za frisageno, ru vahe'mo'za ana mopafina fore hu'za zamagri nona eri'za manigahaze.
Lo! that, is the joy of his way, —and, out of the dust, shall others spring up.
20 Ana nehuno tamage huno Anumzamo'a hazenke'ama omane vahera amefira huomigosie. Hianagi tamagerfa huno kefo avu'ava'ma nehia vahera aza huno azeri hankavea otigahie.
Lo! GOD, will not reject a blameless man, neither will he grasp the hand of evil-doers:
21 Hagi Anumzamo'a kazeri knare hina kagipintira kiza zokago kege nehunka, musenkege hunka manigahane.
At length he shall fill with laughter thy mouth, and thy lips, with a shout of triumph:
22 Ha' vahekamo'zama kavresrama hunegantaza vahera zamazeri zamagaze nehuno, kefo vahera zamazeri haviza hugahie.
They who hate thee, shall be clothed with shame, but, the tent of the lawless, shall not be!
