JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
1“Moul lun mwet uh oana sie mwet mweun su akkohsyeyuk ye ma sap upa nu sel — Oana moul lun sie mwet ma kemkatu ke oru orekma toasr lun pao,
1Is there not a time of service to man upon earth? And are not his days like the days of a hireling?
2Oana sie mwet foko su kena mongla in acn lul uh; Ac oana sie mwet orekma su soano pacl in eis molin orekma lal.
2As a servant that eagerly longeth for the shadow, and as a hireling that looketh for his wages;
3Malem nu ke malem, wanginna sripa nga in moul; Ac fong nu ke fong nga asor na.
3So am I made to possess — months of vanity, and wearisome nights are appointed to me.
4Ke nga ona in motulla, pacl uh arulana sumui; Nga oanna pikpik fong fon se ac kena in tari lenelik.
4When I lie down, I say: 'When shall I arise?' But the night is long, and I am full of tossings to and fro unto the dawning of the day.
5Monuk sessesla ke wet; Afla ke kolo keke; Ac sroano koluk sororla ke faf keik uh.
5My flesh is clothed with worms and clods of dust; my skin closeth up and breaketh out afresh.
6Len luk uh somla ac wangin finsrak kac, Ac fahsr la uh mui liki kutap lun sie mwet tatu nwek.
6My days are swifter than a weaver's shuttle, and are spent without hope.
7“O God, esam lah moul luk uh oana sie mong, Ac wanginla tari pwar luk.
7O remember that my life is a breath; mine eye shall no more see good.
8Kom liyeyu inge, tusruktu kom ac fah tia sifil liyeyu tok. Kom fin ac sukyu, tuh nga nu somla tari.
8The eye of him that seeth me shall behold me no more; while Thine eyes are upon me, I am gone.
9Oana sie pukunyeng ac sarla ac wanginla, Ouinge sie mwet misa fah tiana sifil foloko;
9As the cloud is consumed and vanisheth away, so he that goeth down to the grave shall come up no more.
10Mwet nukewa ma etal meet ah, ac tia sifil esamul.
10He shall return no more to his house, neither shall his place know him any more.
11Ke ma inge, nga tia ku in tila kaskas! Nga kasrkusrak ac mwen insiuk. Enenu na nga in fahkla nunak luk uh.
11Therefore I will not refrain my mouth; I will speak in the anguish of my spirit; I will complain in the bitterness of my soul.
12“Efu ku kom sap in taranyuk nga? Mea, kom nunku mu nga pa soko ma sulallal in meoa uh?
12Am I a sea, or a sea-monster, that Thou settest a watch over me?
13Nga ona ac srike ngan mongla; Nga sukok ma in lusrongla ngal keik uh.
13When I say: 'My bed shall comfort me, my couch shall ease my complaint';
14A kom — kom aksangengyeyu ke mweme; Ac supwama aruruma ac mweme na koluk
14Then Thou scarest me with dreams, and terrifiest me through visions;
15Nwe ke na apkuran ngan ke in isasu kwawuk ngan misa, Liki nga in muta in mano keok se inge.
15So that my soul chooseth strangling, and death rather than these my bones.
16Nga fuhleak finsrak luk; nga totola ke moul muta uh. Tari fahla likiyu; wanginla sripen moul luk.
16I loathe it; I shall not live alway; let me alone; for my days are vanity.
17“Efu ku kom oru mu yohk sripen mwet uh nu sum? Efu ku kom lohang nu ke ma el oru uh?
17What is man, that Thou shouldest magnify him, and that Thou shouldest set Thy heart upon him,
18Kom tonel ke lotutang nukewa Ac srikal ke minit nukewa.
18And that Thou shouldest remember him every morning, and try him every moment?
19Mea, kom tia ku in ngetla likiyu ke kitin pacl Ngan ku in ukumya sronin oalik?
19How long wilt Thou not look away from me, nor let me alone till I swallow down my spittle?
20Ya kom keok ke ma koluk luk, kom su liyaung mwet kapir? Efu ku kom tungalyu oana in sie mwe akoalel lom? Mea, nga mwe toasr se na lom?
20If I have sinned, what do I unto Thee, O Thou watcher of men? Why hast Thou set me as a mark for Thee, so that I am a burden to myself?
21Mea, kom ac tiana nunak munas nu sik ke ma koluk luk nwe tok? Kom tiana ku in tulala ma sufal nga orala uh? Nga akuranna misa, pukpuki, Ac kom ac sukyu tuh na nga wanginla.”
21And why dost Thou not pardon my transgression, and take away mine iniquity? For now shall I lie down in the dust; and Thou wilt seek me, but I shall not be.
