< Yoube 13 >

1 Dilia sia: be huluane, na da musa: nabi dagoi. Na da amo huluane dawa: ! Dilia dawa: i liligi da na dawa: su hame baligisa. Na da dili defele esala.
See, my eye has seen all this; my ear has heard and understood it.
2
What you know, the same I also know; I am not inferior to you.
3 Be na da dilima sia: ga gegesu hame gala. Na da Godema fawane sia: ga gegesu gala.
However, I would rather speak with the Almighty; I wish to reason with God.
4 Dilia da hou hamedafa dawa: Amaiba: le, eno dunu da dilia hame dawa: su hou ba: sa: besa: le, dilia udigili ogogosu sia: daha. Dilia da manoma legesu hina dunu amo da oloi uhinisisu hou hame dawa: , agoai ba: sa.
But you whitewash the truth with lies; you are all physicians of no value.
5 Dilia ouiya: ma! Amasea, dunu eno da dilia da bagade dawa: su dunu dawa: mu!
Oh, that you would altogether hold your peace! That would be your wisdom.
6 Nabima! Bai na da na hou noga: le dodofele imunusa: momagele esala.
Hear now my own reasoning; listen to the pleading of my own lips.
7 Dilia abuliba: le ogogosala: ? Dilia ogogosu da Gode fidima: beyale, dilia dawa: sala: ?
Will you speak unrighteously for God, and will you talk deceitfully for him?
8 Dilia da Gode gaga: musa: dawa: sala: ? Dilia da fofada: su diasuga, Gode gaga: ma: ne fofada: ma: bela: ?
Will you show him partiality? Will you argue the case for God?
9 Gode da dili ha: giwane sosodosea, E da dilia hou amo ganodini noga: i liligi ba: ma: bela: ? Hame mabu! Dilia da eno dunuma bagade ogogosa. Be dilia Godema agoane ogogomu da hamedei.
Will it be good for you when he searches you out? Could you deceive him as you might deceive men?
10 Dilia moloi hame hou da wamolegei dagoi. Be Gode da dilia wamolegei hou ba: mu. Amola E da dilima gagabole sia: mu.
He would surely reprove you if in secret you showed partiality.
11 Dilia da Ea gasa bagade hou ba: sea, beda: gia: mu.
Will not his majesty terrify you, and the dread of him fall upon you?
12 Dilia malasu sia: da hamedei, nasubu agoane gala. Dilia sia: ga gegei da gasa hame laga osobo agoai.
Your memorable sayings are proverbs made of ashes; your defenses are defenses made of clay.
13 Ouiya: ma! Na sia: ma: ne, logo doasima! Na sia: be ea dabe ninia hobea ba: mu.
Hold your peace, let me alone, so that I may speak, let come what may on me.
14 Na da sia: sea, bogosu dabe ba: ma: bela: ? Be na da bogomusa: momagele esala.
I will take my own flesh in my teeth; I will take my life in my hands.
15 Na da hobea misunu hou dafawane hamoma: beyale dawa: su huluane da fisi dagoi. Amaiba: le, Gode da na fane legesea, na da hame dawa: mu.
See, if he kills me, I will have no hope left; nevertheless, I will defend my ways before him.
16 Amabela: ? Na da hame beda: iba: le, na da Godema moloiwane sia: sea, E da nama asigima: bela: ? Bai wadela: le hamosu dunu da beda: iba: le, ilia da Gode Ea odagia moloiwane sia: mu gogolesa.
This will be the reason for my deliverance, for no godless person would come before him.
17 Defea! Na da na hou olelesea, dili nabima!
God, listen carefully to my speech; let my declaration come to your ears.
18 Na da wali na hou noga: le dodofele imunusa: momagele esala. Bai na hou da moloidafa, na dawa:
See now, I have set my defense in order; I know that I am innocent.
19 Gode! Di da nama diwaneya udidimusa: mahabela: ? Amai galea, na da ouiya: le bogomusa: momagele ouesala.
Who is the one who would argue against me in court? If you came to do so, and if I were proved wrong, then I would be silent and give up my life.
20 Be na da Dima adole ba: su aduna gala. Di da na adole ba: su amoma defele adole iasea, na da Dima hame wamoaligimu.
God, do only two things for me, and then I will not hide myself from your face:
21 Adole ba: su afae da, ‘Nama se iabe amo yolesima!’ Eno da ‘Dia na beda: ma: ne mae banenesima!’
withdraw your oppressive hand from me, and do not let your terrors make me afraid.
22 Gode! Di hidadea sia: ma! Amasea, na da Dima dabe adole imunu. O hidadea, na Dima sia: ma: ne logo doasima! Amasea, Di nama dabe adole ima.
Then call me, and I will answer; or let me speak to you, and you answer me.
23 Na da adi hou giadofabela: ? Na da adi wadela: i hou hamobeba: le, Dima fofada: ma: bela: ?
How many are my iniquities and sins? Let me know my transgression and my sin.
24 Dia abuliba: le naba: le hobeabela: ? Dia abuliba: le, na Dia ha lai dunu defele ba: sala: ?
Why do you hide your face from me and treat me like your enemy?
25 Di da na beda: ma: ne hamosala: ? Na da hamedei liligi, lubi agoai gala. Di da fedege agoane gisi bioi amoma doagala: sa.
Will you persecute a driven leaf? Will you pursue dry stubble?
26 Di da nama mi hananewane fofada: nana. Na goi fonoboga wadela: le hamoi liligi, amoba: le Di da nama fofada: sa.
For you write down bitter things against me; you make me inherit the iniquities of my youth.
27 Di da na emo sia: inega la: gilisili, na osa: le gaga ahoabe Di noga: le sosodosa. Na emobu amolawane, Di da noga: le abodele ba: sa.
You also put my feet in the stocks; you closely watch all my paths; you examine the ground where the soles of my feet have walked
28 Amaiba: le, na da dasai ifa defele, fofonobone dasale daha. Amola abula aowabaga mai defele, nuini daha.
although I am like a rotten thing that wastes away, like a garment that moths have eaten.
