Joba 28
1 Fa misy tany fihadiana volafotsy, ary misy tany fahazoana volamena, izay diovina.
Siluer hath bigynnyngis of his veynes; and a place is to gold, in which it is wellid togidere.
2 Ny vy dia alaina avy amin’ ny tany, ary ny varahina arendrika avy amin’ ny vato.
Irun is takun fro erthe, and a stoon resolued, `ethir meltid, bi heete, is turned in to money.
3 Ny mpihady vola mampisava ny maizina ka mizaha hatramin’ ny faran’ ny zavatra rehetra ao, dia ny vaton’ ny aizim-pito sy ny aloky ny fahafatesana;
God hath set tyme to derknessis, and he biholdith the ende of alle thingis.
4 Mihady lavaka mihalavitra amin’ izay itoeran’ olona izy ka tsy ampoizin’ ny tongotra akory, ary mihantona sy mitsingevaheva any ambany lavitra ny olona izy.
Also a stronde departith a stoon of derknesse, and the schadewe of deth, fro the puple goynge in pilgrymage; it departith tho hillis, whiche the foot of a nedi man foryat, and hillis with out weie.
5 Ny tany no ihavian’ ny hanina; Ary ny ao ambaniny dia avadika tahaka ny afo.
The erthe, wher of breed cam forth in his place, is destried bi fier.
6 Fitoeran’ ny safira ny vatony, ary misy akoram-bolamena ao aminy
The place of saphir ben stoonys therof, and the clottis therof ben gold.
7 Làlana tsy fantatry ny vorona mpihaza ary tsy hitan’ ny mason’ ny voromahery,
A brid knewe not the weie, and the iye of a vultur, ethir rauenouse brid, bihelde it not.
8 Sady tsy nodiavin’ ny zanaky ny bibi-dia ary tsy mba nalehan’ ny liona masiaka.
The sones of marchauntis tretiden not on it, and a lyonesse passide not therbi.
9 Maninjitra ny tànany amin’ ny vatokaranana ireo ary mamadika ny tendrombohitra hatramin’ ny fotony;
God stretchide forth his hond to a flynt; he distriede hillis fro the rootis.
10 Ny vatolampy tatahany hatao lalan-drano, ary izay zava-tsoa rehetra dia hitan’ ny masony avokoa.
He hewide doun ryuers in stoonys; and his iye siy al precious thing.
11 Tampenany ny lalan-drano mba tsy hisy mitete. Ary izay zava-miafina dia avoakany ho amin’ ny mazava.
And he souyte out the depthis of floodis; and he brouyte forth hid thingis in to liyt.
12 Fa aiza kosa no hahitana ny fahendrena? ary aiza no fitoeran’ ny fahalalana?
But where is wisdom foundun, and which is the place of vndurstondyng?
13 Tsy misy zanak’ olombelona mahalala ny vidiny, ary tsy hita eo amin’ ny tanin’ ny velona izy.
A man noot the prijs therof, nether it is foundun in the lond of men lyuynge swetli, `ether delicatli.
14 Hoy ny lalina: Tsy ato anatiko izy; Ary, tsy ato amiko izy, hoy ny ranomasina.
The depthe of watris seith, It is not in me; and the see spekith, It is not with me.
15 Ny volamena tsara tsy mahatakalo azy, ary ny volafotsy tsy azo lanjaina ho vidiny;
Gold ful cleene schal not be youun for wisdom, nether siluer schal be weied in the chaungyng therof.
16 Ny volamena avy any Ofira tsy ampy ho tombany, na ny beryla saro-bidy sy ny safira aza.
It schal not be comparysound to the died colours of Iynde, not to the moost preciouse stoon of sardius, nether to saphir.
17 Ny volamena sy ny fitaratra tsy azo ampitahaina aminy, ary tsy azo takalozana firavaka tena volamena izy.
Nether gold, nether glas schal be maad euene worth therto;
18 Tsy tokony hotsaroana akory ny voahangy sy ny vato krystaly, fa ny fahazoana fahendrena dia mihoatra noho ny voahangy.
and hiye and fer apperynge vessels of gold schulen not be chaungid for wisdom, nether schulen be had in mynde in comparisoun therof. Forsothe wisdom is drawun of pryuy thingis;
19 Ny topaza avy any Etiopia dia tsy azo ampitahaina aminy, ary tsy mahatakalo azy ny tena volamena tsara
topasie of Ethiope schal not be maad euene worth to wisdom, and moost preciouse diyngis schulen not be set togidere in prijs, `ether comparisound, therto.
20 Dia avy aiza ary ny fahendrena? Ary aiza no fitoeran’ ny fahalalana?
Therfor wherof cometh wisdom, and which is the place of vndurstondyng?
21 Miafina amin’ ny mason’ ny velona rehetra izany ary takona amin’ ny voro-manidina.
It is hid fro the iyen of alle lyuynge men; also it is hid fro briddis of heuene.
22 Hoy Abadona sy Ifahafatesana: Ny sofinay ihany no nandrenesany ny filazana azy.
Perdicioun and deeth seiden, With oure eeris we herden the fame therof.
23 Andriamanitra ihany no mahalala ny lalana ho any aminy, ary Izy no mahafantatra ny itoerany;
God vndurstondith the weye therof, and he knowith the place therof.
24 Fa Izy no mitsinjo hatramin’ ny faran’ ny tany ary mahatazana manerana izao ambanin’ ny lanitra rehetra izao,
For he biholdith the endis of the world, and biholdith alle thingis that ben vndur heuene.
25 Ka manendry ny lanjan’ ny rivotra ary mamatra ny rano amin’ ny famarana.
`Which God made weiyte to wyndis, and weiede watris in mesure.
26 Raha nanao lalana ho an’ ny ranonorana Izy sy lalana halehan’ ny helatry ny kotrokorana,
Whanne he settide lawe to reyn, and weie to tempestis sownynge;
27 Dia nahita ka nanambara azy Izy; Eny, nanorina azy Izy sady namantatra azy;
thanne he siy wisdom, and telde out, and made redi, and souyte out.
28 Dia hoy Izy tamin’ ny olona: Indro, ny fahatahorana ny Tompo no fahendrena. Ary ny fialàna amin’ ny ratsy no fahalalana.
And he seide to man, Lo! the drede of the Lord, thilke is wisdom; and to go awei fro yuel, is vndurstondyng.
