Job 5
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Bible Mutal (Kosraean)
1Call now; is there any that will answer thee? And to which of the holy ones wilt thou turn?
1“Job, srike pang ac liye lah oasr mwet ac topuk kom. Ya oasr lipufan kom ac ku in nget nu se?
2For anger killeth the foolish man, and envy slayeth the silly one.
2Sie mwet el fin inse koluk ac sruokyana mulat lal, El lalfon, mweyen ouiya inge ku in unilya.
3I have seen the foolish taking root; but suddenly I beheld his habitation cursed.
3Oasr kutu mwet na lalfon nga liye oana in mutana okak, Tusruktu nga pangon mu selngawiyuki lohm selos.
4His children are far from safety, and are crushed in the gate, with none to deliver them.
4Tulik natulos tia ku in konauk acn elos in wikla we; Ac wangin mwet tuyak in kasrelos ke pacl nununkeyuk elos.
5Whose harvest the hungry eateth up, and taketh it even out of the thorns, and the snare gapeth for their substance.
5Mwet masrinsral ac fah kangla fokin ima lun mwet lalfon inge — Finne ma su kapak inmaslon kokul uh — Ac mwet malu elos fah sok selos ke sripen kasrup lalos.
6For affliction cometh not forth from the dust, neither doth trouble spring out of the ground;
6Ma koluk uh tia kapak infohk uh, Ku mwe lokoalok tuku ye fohk uh me.
7But man is born unto trouble, as the sparks fly upward.
7Mo na mo! Mwet uh sifacna orala mwe lokoalok nu selos, Oana ke kosran e uh ac pisryak liki e uh.
8But as for me, I would seek unto God, and unto God would I commit my cause;
8“Funu nga pa kom, nga lukun forla nu sin God Ac fahkyuyak nu sel.
9Who doeth great things and unsearchable, marvellous things without number;
9Kut tia ku in kalem ke orekma usrnguk lal uh, Ac mwenmen ma El oru inge, wangin safla kac.
10Who giveth rain upon the earth, and sendeth waters upon the fields;
10El supwama af nu fin acn uh, Ac aksroksrokyauk infohk uh.
11So that He setteth up on high those that are low, and those that mourn are exalted to safety.
11Aok, pwaye lah God El akmwetyalos su pusisel, Ac akpwaryalos nukewa su muta in asor.
12He frustrateth the devices of the crafty, so that their hands can perform nothing substantial.
12El kunausla pwapa sulal lun mwet kutasrik, Ac oru tuh paolos in tiana orala ma elos ke oru.
13He taketh the wise in their own craftiness; and the counsel of the wily is carried headlong.
13El sruokya mwet orek lalmwetmet ke ma elos sifacna nunkauk, Pwanang ako sulallal lalos sa na fosla;
14They meet with darkness in the day-time, and grope at noonday as in the night.
14Finne infulwen len, a elos ac kahlimin acn uh in lohsr.
15But He saveth from the sword of their mouth, even the needy from the hand of the mighty.
15Tusruktu God El molela mwet sukasrup uh liki misa, Ac karingin mwet enenu uh liki mwe keok.
16So the poor hath hope, and iniquity stoppeth her mouth.
16El sang finsrak nu sin mwet sukasrup ac kaliya oalin mwet koluk.
17Behold, happy is the man whom God correcteth; therefore despise not thou the chastening of the Almighty.
17“Insewowo mwet se su God El kai! Nimet kom srunga El fin kai kom.
18For He maketh sore, and bindeth up; He woundeth, and His hands make whole.
18God El sifacna losya kinet su El kanteya; Paol fin kantekomi, na paol ac sifil pacna akkeyekomla.
19He will deliver thee in six troubles; yea, in seven there shall no evil touch thee.
19In pacl na pus El ac molikomla liki mwe ongoiya;
20In famine He will redeem thee from death; and in war from the power of the sword.
20Ke pacl in sracl El ac fah karingin moul lom, Ac in pacl in mweun El ac fah liyekomyang liki misa.
21Thou shalt be hid from the scourge of the tongue; neither shalt thou be afraid of destruction when it cometh.
21God El ac fah loangekom liki kas kikiap lun mwet keim; Ac molikomla ke pacl mwe kunausten lulap sikyak.
22At destruction and famine thou shalt laugh; neither shalt thou be afraid of the beasts of the earth.
22Ke pacl ongoiya ac sracl tuku, kom ac fah israsr na kac, Ac kom ac fah tia sangeng ke kosro lemnak.
23For thou shalt be in league with the stones of the field; and the beasts of the field shall be at peace with thee.
23Acn ma kom pikin nu ke ima lom, ac fah wangin eot we; Kosro lemnak ac fah tiana anwuk nu sum.
24And thou shalt know that thy tent is in peace; and thou shalt visit thy habitation, and shalt miss nothing.
24Na kom ac fah muta in misla in lohm nuknuk sum; Ac ke kom ac som liye un sheep nutum, wangin ma koluk sikyak nu selos.
25Thou shalt know also that thy seed shall be great, and thine offspring as the grass of the earth.
25Ac fah arulana pus tulik nutum Oana pusiyen mah inima uh.
26Thou shalt come to thy grave in a ripe age, like as a shock of corn cometh in in its season.
26Kom ac fah moul nwe ke na kom matuoh, Oana wheat su oan nwe matula ke pacl in kosrani.
27Lo this, we have searched it, so it is; hear it, and know thou it for thy good.
27Job, kut etu ma inge mweyen kut lutlut kac ke pacl na loes. Wona kom in lulalfongi, mweyen ma inge ma na pwaye.”
