1Na Job el fahk,
1Then Job answered:
2“Porongo ma nga fahk uh; Pwayena ma nga siyuk komtal in akwoyeyu kac.
2“Listen carefully to my words; let this be your consolation to me.
3Fuhlema kitin pacl luk in kaskas, ac nga fin tari, Na komtal ku in isrunyu, komtal fin lungse.
3Bear with me while I speak; then, after I have spoken, you may go on mocking.
4“Alein luk uh tia ma in lain mwet; Oasr sripen semuteng luk uh.
4Is my complaint against a man? Then why should I not be impatient?
5Ngetma liyeyu. Ya lumuk tia fal In oru komtal in lut ac kofla kaskas ke komtal suiyuwi uh?
5Look at me and be appalled; put your hand over your mouth.
6Ke nga nunku ma sikyak nu sik uh, Nga arulana oela, ac rarak ke sangeng.
6When I remember, terror takes hold, and my body trembles in horror.
7“Efu ku God El lela mwet koluk uh in moul, Nwe ke na elos matuoh, ac wona nu selos?
7Why do the wicked live on, growing old and increasing in power?
8Oasr tulik natulos ac nutin natulos, Ac elos moulna muta nwe ke na elos liye ke tulik inge matula uh.
8Their descendants are established around them, and their offspring before their eyes.
9God El tiana sang ongoiya nu ke lohm selos uh; Ac elos tia wi pula mwe aksangeng uh.
9Their homes are safe from fear; no rod of punishment from God is upon them.
10Aok, cow mukul natulos orek fahko, wo ouiya pacl nukewa, Ac cow mutan uh oswela ma natulos wanginna ma misa.
10Their bulls breed without fail; their cows bear calves and do not miscarry.
11Tulik natulos uh kasrusrsrusr na srital oana sheep fusr uh,
11They send forth their little ones like a flock; their children skip about,
12Ac onsrosro nu ke pusren mwe on harp ac flute.
12singing to the tambourine and lyre and making merry at the sound of the flute.
13Elos moul ke moul na misla Ac pacl in misa lalos uh, elos ac misa na in misla ac tiana keok.
13They spend their days in prosperity and go down to Sheol in peace.
14“Mwet koluk uh fahk nu sin God, ‘Fahsr liki kut! Mansis kut in tia etu ma kom lungse.
14Yet they say to God: ‘Leave us alone! For we have no desire to know Your ways.
15Su Ku liki Ku inge tuh kut in orekma nu sel? Mea, ac oasr ma wo nu sesr kut fin pre nu sel?’
15Who is the Almighty, that we should serve Him, and what would we gain if we pray to Him?’
16Elos fahk mu wo ouiya lalos uh ma na ke ku lalos sifacna, Tusruktu nga tia ku in insese nu ke luman nunak lalos inge.
16Still, their prosperity is not in their own hands, so I stay far from the counsel of the wicked.
17“Ku nu oasr pacl ma kuniyukla kalem lun mwet koluk uh? Ku nu oasr sie selos pula mwe ongoiya? Nu oasr pacl God El kai mwet koluk uh ke kasrkusrak
17How often is the lamp of the wicked put out? Does disaster come upon them? Does God, in His anger, apportion destruction?
18Ac okulosla oana mah uh ke eng upa, Ku oana kutkut ma sohkla ke pacl in paka uh?
18Are they like straw before the wind, like chaff swept away by a storm?
19“Komtal fahk mu God El akkeokye sie tulik ke sripen ma koluk lun papa tumal uh. Mo! Lela God Elan akkeokye na mwet se ma orekma koluk an; Lela in kalem selos lah God El oru ouinge ke sripen koluk ma elos sifacna oru.
19It is said that God lays up one’s punishment for his children. Let God repay the man himself, so he will know it.
20Lela mwet koluk uh in sifacna us mwatan ma koluk lalos an; Lela elos in pula kasrkusrak lun God Kulana.
20Let his eyes see his own destruction; let him drink for himself the wrath of the Almighty.
21Moul lun sie mwet fin safla, Mea pwaye lah ac oasr nunak lal ke tulik natul, lah elos engan ku tia?
21For what does he care about his household after him, when the number of his months has run out?
22Mea, mwet uh ku in luti God, Su nununku mwet nukewa, finne elos su muta yen fulat?
22Can anyone teach knowledge to God, since He judges those on high?
23“Sie kain mwet ac misa ke pacl na ma yohk wo ouiya nu sel, Ac el mutana okak ac misla.
23One man dies full of vigor, completely secure and at ease.
24Manol factfat na wo, ac koanon sri kacl uh srakna ku.
24His body is well nourished, and his bones are rich with marrow.
25A sie kain mwet uh wangin na pwaye engan lal; El inse toasr na ke el moul nwe ke na el misa.
25Yet another man dies in the bitterness of his soul, having never tasted prosperity.
26Tusruktu elos kewa ac oana sie: elos ac misa, pukpuki, Ac manolos afla ke wet.
26But together they lie down in the dust, and worms cover them both.
27“Nga etu nunak koluk lomtal ingan.
27Behold, I know your thoughts full well, the schemes by which you would wrong me.
28Komtal fahk, ‘Pia lohm sin leum sac inge; Mwet se ma mutana oru ma koluk?’
28For you say, ‘Where now is the nobleman’s house, and where are the tents in which the wicked dwell?’
29“Ku komtal soenna wi sramsram nu sin mwet ma muta forfor nu saya uh? Komtal tiana etu kain mwe sramsram ma elos ac som nwe foloko srumun uh?
29Have you never asked those who travel the roads? Do you not accept their reports?
30Ke len ma God El ac kasrkusrak ac akkeokye mwet uh, Mwet koluk uc wacna tia pula ma upa.
30Indeed, the evil man is spared from the day of calamity, delivered from the day of wrath.
31Wanginna mwet muta tukakin mwet koluk uh, Ku folokin nu sel ke ma koluk nukewa ma el orala.
31Who denounces his behavior to his face? Who repays him for what he has done?
32Ke el ac utukla nu ke kulyuk uh, Nu ke luf kial su arulana taranyuk wo,
32He is carried to the grave, and watch is kept over his tomb.
33Mwet puspis ac fah wi fahsr nu ke pukmas uh, Ac finne fohkon acn uh, ac fah arulana mulala nu facl.
33The clods of the valley are sweet to him; everyone follows behind him, and those before him are without number.
34“A komtal! Komtal srike in akwoyeyu ke kas lusrongten! Top lomtal an kikiap nufon!”
34So how can you comfort me with empty words? For your answers remain full of falsehood.”
