Bible Mutal (Kosraean)
1Then Eliphaz the Temanite replied:
1Na Eliphaz el fahk,
2“Can a man be of use to God? Can even a wise man benefit Him?
2“Ku oasr sie mwet, finne mwet ma lalmwetmet emeet uh, Su oasr sripa nu sin God?
3Does it delight the Almighty that you are righteous? Does He profit if your ways are blameless?
3Ku orekma lom fin arulana suwohs, ya ac akwoye God? Kom fin tia oru kutena ma koluk, ya ac ku in kasrel?
4Is it for your reverence that He rebukes you and enters into judgment against you?
4Tia ke sripen kom sangeng sin God Pa oru Elan kai kom, ku nununkekom an.
5Is not your wickedness great? Are not your iniquities endless?
5Mo, ma ke sripen arulana yokla ma koluk lom; Oayapa ke ma koluk nukewa ma kom oru an.
6For you needlessly demanded security from your brothers and deprived the naked of their clothing.
6Ke kom oru tuh sie mwet lim in akfalyela mani ma el ngisrala sum uh, Oana kom in sarukla nuknuk ma el nukum uh ac oru tuh elan koflufolla.
7You gave no water to the weary and withheld food from the famished,
7Kom tuh srunga sang kof nimen mwet su totola, Ac sranga pac sang mwe mongo nu selos su masrinsral.
8while the land belonged to a mighty man, and a man of honor lived on it.
8Kom tuh orekmakin ku lom ac wal lom In eisla acn uh nufon.
9You sent widows away empty-handed, and the strength of the fatherless was crushed.
9Kom tia falkin lah kom tia wi kasru katinmas, A kom oayapa pisre ma lun tulik mukaimtal, ac oralos koluk.
10Therefore snares surround you, and sudden peril terrifies you;
10Ke ma inge sruhf puspis raunikomla ac akola in sruokkomi, Ac inge kom muta in sangeng na lulap.
11it is so dark you cannot see, and a flood of water covers you.
11Arulana yokla lohsr ingena, oru kom tia ku in liye, Ac sie sronot lulap afinkomla.
12Is not God as high as the heavens? Look at the highest stars, how lofty they are!
12“Ya God El tia muta yen fulatlana inkusrao Ac ngeti nu fin itu uh, finne itu uh oan yen fulat?
13Yet you say: ‘What does God know? Does He judge through thick darkness?
13A kom siyuk, ‘Mea God El etu? Pukunyeng uh okanulla, na El ac nununkekut fuka?’
14Thick clouds veil Him so He does not see us as He traverses the vault of heaven.’
14Kom nunku mu pukunyeng matoltol uh kosrala mutal Elan tia liye, Ke El forfor fin acn engyeng uh.
15Will you stay on the ancient path that wicked men have trod?
15“Ya kom wotela sum tari mu kom ac fahsrna ke inkanek Ma mwet koluk uh fahsr kac pacl nukewa uh?
16They were snatched away before their time, and their foundations were swept away by a flood.
16Meet liki na pacl in misa lalos, Elos pahtkakinyukla tari ke sie sronot.
17They said to God, ‘Depart from us. What can the Almighty do to us?’
17Mwet inge mwet pilesru God, Ac elos nunku mu wangin ma El ku in oru nu selos.
18But it was He who filled their houses with good things; so I stay far from the counsel of the wicked.
18Sruhk God pa tuh akinsewowoyalos ke kasrpalos — Nga tia ku in kalem ke nunak lun mwet koluk uh.
19The righteous see it and are glad; the innocent mock them:
19Mwet wo uh engan, ac mwet wangin mwata elos israsr Ke elos liye lah kalyeiyuk mwet koluk uh.
20‘Surely our foes are destroyed, and fire has consumed their excess.’
20Ma nukewa lun mwet koluk uh kunausyukla, Ac e uh esukak kutena ma su lula.
21Reconcile now and be at peace with Him; thereby good will come to you.
21“Inge, Job, akmisye kom nu sin God, Ac nimet oral oana sie mwet lokoalok; Kom fin suk misla, na El ac akinsewowoye kom.
22Receive instruction from His mouth, and lay up His words in your heart.
22Eis mwe luti ma El sot uh; Ac filiya kas lal insiom.
23If you return to the Almighty, you will be restored. If you remove injustice from your tents
23Aok, kom enenu in siskomi, ac foloko nu yurin God, Oru in safla ma koluk nukewa Ma orek in lohm sum an.
24and consign your gold to the dust and the gold of Ophir to the stones of the ravines,
24Sisla gold lom an; Sisla nufon gold wowo lom an nu ke kapin infacl paola ingan.
25then the Almighty will be your gold and the finest silver for you.
25Lela tuh in God Kulana pa gold lom uh, Ac Elan oana silver lom su yolyak oan yurum an.
26Surely then you will delight in the Almighty and lift up your face to God.
26Na kom fah lulalfongi God pacl nukewa, Ac kom fah etu lah mwe insewowo lom nukewa tuku sel me.
27You will pray to Him, and He will hear you, and you will fulfill your vows.
27Ke kom pre El ac topuk kom, Ac kom fah liyaung wulela nukewa ma kom orala nu sel an.
28Your decisions will be carried out, and light will shine on your ways.
28Na ac fah wo ouiyom ke ma nukewa kom oru, Ac kalem ac fah tolak inkanek lom.
29When men are brought low and you say, ‘Lift them up!’ then He will save the lowly.
29God El sisya mwet inse fulat, Ac molela mwet pusisel.
30He will deliver even one who is not innocent, rescuing him through the cleanness of your hands.”
30God El ac fah molikomla fin wangin ma sufal lom, Ac fin pwaye orekma lom.”
