Job 35
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Bible Mutal (Kosraean)
1Moreover Elihu answered and said:
1Na Elihu el sifilpa fahk:
2Thinkest thou this to be thy right, or sayest thou: 'I am righteousness before God',
2“Ku kom nunku mu ma se inge suwohs Ke kom fahk mu, ‘Nga suwohs ye mutun God.’
3That thou inquirest: 'What advantage will it be unto Thee?' And: 'What profit shall I have, more than if I had sinned?'
3Ku ke kom siyuk sin God, ‘Nga fin tia oru ma koluk, mea ac wo nu sik?’
4I will give thee answer, and thy companions with thee.
4Nga ac topuk kom, ac mwet kawuk lom ingan pac.
5Look unto the heavens, and see; and behold the skies, which are higher than thou.
5“Ngetak liye acn lucng! Liye fulatiyen pukunyeng uh!
6If thou hast sinned, what doest thou against Him? And if thy transgressions be multiplied, what doest thou unto Him?
6Kom fin orekma koluk, God El tiana akkolukyeyuk kac. Kom fin oru ma koluk pacl pus, ya ma inge ac aklokoalokyal?
7If thou be righteous, what givest thou Him? Or what receiveth He of thy hand?
7Ya kom kasru God kom fin arulana orek suwohs? Wangin ma God El enenu sum.
8Thy wickedness concerneth a man as thou art; and thy righteousness a son of man.
8Mwet uh pa ac keok ke ma koluk kom oru uh, Ac ma wo kom oru uh ac kasru pac mwet.
9By reason of the multitude of oppressions they cry out; they cry for help by reason of the arm of the mighty.
9“Ke akkeokyeyuk mwet uh, elos ac sasao; Ac elos pang tuh in oasr mwet kasrelos.
10But none saith: 'Where is God my Maker, who giveth songs in the night;
10Tuh elos tia ngetang nu sin God su oralosla, Su sang soko on in finsrak nu selos ke pacl upa nu selos.
11Who teacheth us more than the beasts of the earth, and maketh us wiser than the fowls of heaven?'
11Elos tia nget nu sin God su ase etauk nu sesr, Etauk liki kutena kosro, ku won.
12There they cry, but none giveth answer, because of the pride of evil men.
12Elos pang in suk kasru, tuh God El tiana topkolos, Mweyen elos mwet koluk ac inse fulat.
13Surely God will not hear vanity, neither will the Almighty regard it.
13Wangin sripen pang lalos uh; God Kulana El tiana liyalos, ku lohng pusralos.
14Yea, when thou sayest thou canst not see Him — the cause is before Him; therefore wait thou for Him.
14“Job, kom fahk mu kom tia ku in liye God; Tusruktu, kom in mongfisrasr ac tupan. Top lal nu sum uh oasr yorol.
15And now, is it for nought that He punished in His anger? And hath He not full knowledge of arrogance?
15In nunak lom kom mu God El ac tiana kalyei mwet, Ac kom mu El tia arulana lohang nu ke ma koluk uh.
16But Job doth open his mouth in vanity; he multiplieth words without knowledge.
16Wangin sripa kom in nuna kaskas na; Kalem tari lah kom tia etu ma kom fahk an.”
