1 Temanliⱪ Elifaz jawabǝn mundaⱪ dedi: —
Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered Job.
2 «Birsi sǝn bilǝn sɵzlǝxmǝkqi bolsa, eƣir alamsǝn? Biraⱪ kim aƣziƣa kǝlgǝn gǝpni yutuwatalaydu?
“Could I say a word? I don't want to upset you but who could keep quiet and not respond?
3 Ⱪara, sǝn kɵp adǝmlǝrgǝ tǝlim-tǝrbiyǝ bǝrgǝn adǝmsǝn, Sǝn jansiz ⱪollarƣa küq bǝrgǝnsǝn,
You've certainly encouraged many people and supported those who are weak.
4 Sɵzliring dǝldǝngxip aran mangidiƣanlarni riƣbǝtlǝndürgǝn, Tizliri pükülgǝnlǝrni yɵligǝnsǝn.
Your advice has helped those who are stumbling not to fall, and you have strengthened those whose knees are weak.
5 Biraⱪ ⱨazir nɵwǝt sanga kǝldi, Xuningliⱪ bilǝn ⱨalingdin kǝtting, Balayi’apǝt sanga tegixi bilǝn, Sǝn alaⱪzadǝ bolup kǝtting.
But now you're the one suffering and you're upset.
6 Ihlasmǝnliking tayanqing bolup kǝlmigǝnmu? Yolliringdiki durusluⱪ ümidingning asasi ǝmǝsmidi?
Wasn't it your reverence for God that gave you confidence and your integrity that gave you hope?
7 Esinggǝ al, kim bigunaⱨ turup wǝyran bolup baⱪⱪan? Duruslarning ⱨayati nǝdǝ üzülüp ⱪalƣan?
Think about it: since when did the innocent die? Since when were good people destroyed?
8 Mǝn kɵrginimdǝk, gunaⱨ bilǝn yǝr aƣdurup awariqilik teriƣanlar, Ohxaxla ⱨosul alidu.
From what I've seen it's those who plant evil and sow trouble who reap the same!
9 Tǝngrining bir nǝpisi bilǝnla ular gumran bolidu, Uning ƣǝzipining partlixi bilǝn ular yoⱪilip ketidu.
A breath from God destroys them; a blast of his anger wipes them out.
10 Xirning ⱨɵrkirǝxliri, Ⱨǝm ǝxǝddiy xirning awazi [bar bolsimu], Xir arslanlirining qixliri sundurulidu;
Lions may roar and growl, but their teeth still break.
11 Batur xir bolsa ow tapalmay yoⱪilixⱪa yüzlinidu, Qixi xirning küqükliri qeqilip ketidu.
Even a lion dies from lack of food, and the lioness' cubs are scattered.
12 — Mana, manga bir sɵz ƣayibanǝ kǝldi, Ⱪuliⱪimƣa bir xiwirliƣan awaz kirdi,
A word quietly crept up on me; a whisper reached my ear.
13 Tün keqidiki ƣayibanǝ kɵrünüxlǝrdin qiⱪⱪan oylarda, Adǝmlǝrni qongⱪur uyⱪu basⱪanda,
Troubling thoughts came to me in nightmares when you fall into a deep sleep.
14 Ⱪorⱪunq wǝ titrǝkmu meni basti, Sɵngǝk-sɵngǝklirimni titritiwǝtti;
I became terrified and trembled; all my bones were shaking.
15 Kɵz aldimdin bir roⱨ ɵtüp kǝtti; Bǝdinimdiki tüklirim ⱨürpiyip kǝtti.
Then a breath brushed my face and gave me goose-pimples.
16 U roⱨ ornida midirlimay turdi, biraⱪ turⱪini kɵrǝlmidim; Kɵz aldimda bir gǝwdǝ turuptu; Xiwirliƣan bir awaz anglandi: —
Something stopped, but I couldn't see its face. My eyes could only make out a shape. It was totally quiet, and then I heard a voice:
17 «Insan balisi Tǝngridin ⱨǝⱪⱪaniy bolalamdu? Adǝm ɵz Yaratⱪuqisidin pak bolalamdu?
‘Can anyone be right before God? Can anyone be pure before their Maker?
18 Mana, U Ɵz ⱪulliriƣa ixǝnmigǝn, Ⱨǝtta pǝrixtilirinimu «Nadanliⱪ ⱪilƣan!» dǝp ǝyibligǝn yǝrdǝ,
If he doesn't even trust his servants, and he says his angels make mistakes,
19 Uli topilardin bolƣan insanlar, Laydin yasalƣan ɵylǝrdǝ turƣuqilar ⱪandaⱪ bolar!? Ular pǝrwanidinmu asanla yanjilidu!
how much more does this apply to those who live in these houses made of clay, whose foundations are based on dust, who fall apart like clothing to a moth?
20 Ular tang bilǝn kǝq ariliⱪida kukum-talⱪan bolidu; Ular ⱨeqkim nǝzirigǝ almiƣan ⱨalda mǝnggügǝ yoⱪilidu.
Alive in the morning, they are dead by evening. They die, unnoticed.
21 Ularning qedir tanisi yulup taxlanƣanƣu? Ular ⱨeq danaliⱪⱪa tehi erixmǝyla ɵlüp ketidu!».
They are like tent ropes that are pulled up, and they collapse in death. They die without wisdom.’
