Job 23

Bible Mutal (Kosraean)

Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)

1Na Job el fahk,

1Then Job answered, and said:

2“Nga srakna torkaskas ac lain God; Nga tia ku in kutongya sasao luk.

2Now also my words are in bitterness, and the hand of my scourge is more grievous than my mourning.

3Seyal nga ke etu lah nga ac konalak ya, Ac lah nga ac ut ya nu yen El muta we.

3Who will grant me that I might know and find him, and come even to his throne?

4Nga lukun fahkang na nunak luk nu sel Ac takunang nufon ma nga pulakin mu pwaye sik.

4I would set judgment before him, and would fill my mouth with complaints.

5Nga ke etu lah mea El ac fahk, Ac lah El ac topukyu fuka.

5That I might know the words that he would answer me, and understand what he would say to me.

6Ya God El ac lainyu ke ku lal nufon? Mo, El ac porongo na ke nga ac kaskas uh.

6I would not that he should contend with me with much strength, nor overwhelm me with the weight of his greatness.

7In pacl sac El ac engan in lohng sramsram luk, mweyen nga inse pwayena nu sel; Na El ac fah akkalemye lah El tuleyula, ingela nwe tok.

7Let him propose equity against me, and let my judgment come to victory.

8“Nga tuh sokol kutulap, tuh El wangin we; Nga tia pacna konalak ke nga sokol roto ah.

8But if I go to the east, he appeareth not; if to the west, I shall not understand him.

9El tuh orekma na epang ac eir, Tuh nga tia pacna liyal we.

9If to the left hand, what shall I do? I shall not take hold on him: if I turn myself to the right hand, I shall not see him.

10Ne ouinge a God El etu nufon acn nga forfor we; El fin srikeyu, El ac konauk lah nga nasnasna.

10But he knoweth my way, and has tried me as gold that passeth through the fire:

11Nga oaru na in fahsr ke inkanek ma El sulela nu sik uh, Ac tiana kuhfla liki.

11My foot hath followed his steps, I have kept his way, and have not declined from it.

12Nga oru na ma El sapkin pacl nukewa; Nga fahsrna ke ma lungse lal ac tia lungse luk sifacna.

12I have not departed from the commandments of his lips, and the words of his mouth I have hid in my bosom.

13“God El tiana ekyek. Wangin mwet ku in kifasulla, Ku tulokinilya liki ma El lungse oru uh.

13For he is alone, and no man can turn away his thought: and whatsoever is soul hath desired, that hath he done.

14El ac oralana ma El akou in oru nu sik; Ako se lal inge siena sin ma pus ma El ke oru nu sik uh.

14And when he shall have fulfilled his will in me, many other like things are also at hand with him.

15Nga arulana rarrar ac sangeng ye mutal.

15And therefore I am troubled at his presence, and when I consider him I am made pensive with fear.

16God pa arulana akmunasyela nunak luk uh. El su Kulana El arulana aksangengyeyu.

16God hath softened my heart, and the Almighty hath troubled me.

17Finne lohsr uh kosrala mutuk, Nga tiana misla in fahk nunak luk uh.

17For I have not perished because of the darkness that hangs over me, neither hath the mist covered my face.
