Job 24
1 “For this reason from the Mighty One Times have not been hidden, And those knowing Him have not seen His days.
Nahoana no tsy misy fotoan’ andro voatendrin’ ny Tsitoha, ary nahoana no tsy hitan’ ny mahalala Azy izany androny Izany?
2 They reach the borders, They have taken a drove away violently, Indeed, they do evil.
Misy mamindra fari-tany sy mangalatra omby aman’ ondry sady miandry azy.
3 They lead away the donkey of the fatherless, They take in pledge the ox of the widow,
Mandroaka ny borikin’ ny kamboty izy, ary maka ny ombin’ ny mpitondratena ho tsatòka.
4 They turn aside the needy from the way, Together have hid the poor of the earth.
Manosika ny mahantra hiala amin’ ny lalana izy, ka dia miery azy avokoa ny malahelo amin’ ny tany.
5 Behold, wild donkeys in a wilderness, They have gone out about their work, Seeking early for prey, A mixture for himself—food for young ones.
Indro, tahaka ny fivoaky ny boriki-dia any an-efitra no fivoak’ ireny ho amin’ ny asany hiremby; Ny tani-hay no ahazoany hanina ho an’ ny zanany.
6 They reap his provender in a field, And they glean the vineyard of the wicked.
Any an-tsaha izy maka vilona sy mitsimpontsimpona ny voaloboky ny ratsy fanahy.
7 They cause the naked to lodge without clothing. And there is no covering in the cold.
Mandry mitanjaka amin’ ny alina izy, satria tsy manan-damba, ka dia tsy manana firakotra amin’ ny hatsiaka;
8 From the inundation of hills they are wet, And without a refuge—have embraced a rock.
Kotsan’ ny ranonoram-baratra any an-tendrombohitra izy, ka mitampisaka amin’ ny vatolampy, fa tsy manam-pialofana.
9 They take away violently The orphan from the breast, And they lay a pledge on the poor.
Misarika ny kamboty eo am-pinonoana izy ary maka tsatòka amin’ ny ory.
10 Naked, they have gone without clothing, And hungry—have taken away a sheaf.
Mandeha mitsaitsaika ireo, fa mitanjaka tsy manan-kitafy, ary noana eo am-pitondrana ny amboaram-bary.
11 They make oil between their walls, They have trodden winepresses, and thirst.
Manao diloilo eo anatin’ ny tambohon’ ny mpampahory azy izy; Ary manosihosy ny famiazam-boaloboka izy, nefa mangetaheta ihany.
12 Men groan because of enmity, And the soul of pierced ones cries, And God does not give praise.
Mitrona ny lehilahy ao an-tanana, ary mitaraina ny fanahin’ ny voalefona; Nefa tsy ahoan’ Andriamanitra akory ny ratsy atao.
13 They have been those rebelling against light, They have not discerned His ways, Nor abided in His paths.
Ireny no mpikomy amin’ ny mazava; Tsy mba mihevitra ny lalany izy, na mitoetra eo amin’ ny alehany.
14 The murderer rises at the light, He slays the poor and needy, And in the night he is as a thief.
Raha vao mangiran-dratsy, dia mifoha ny mpamono olona; Mamono ny ory sy ny malahelo izy, ary nony alina, dia tahaka ny mpangalatra.
15 And the eye of an adulterer Has observed the twilight, Saying, No eye beholds me. And he puts the face in secret.
Ny mason’ ny mpijangajanga miandry ny maizimaizina, ka hoy izy: Tsy misy hahalala ahy ka dia manao very maso izy.
16 He has dug in the darkness—houses; By day they shut themselves up, They have not known light.
Misy manamy trano nony maizina; Nefa nony antoandro dia miery izy; Tsy mahalala ny mazava izy;
17 When together, morning [is] death-shade to them, When he discerns the terrors of death-shade.
Fa ny aizim-pito no marainan’ ireo rehetra ireo; Satria efa mahazatra azy ny fampahatahoran’ ny aizim-pito izy.
18 He [is] light on the face of the waters, Their portion is vilified in the earth, He does not turn the way of vineyards.
Mitsinkafona paohin’ ny rano izy; Voaozona ny anjarany eo amin’ ny tany; Tsy mivily ho amin’ ny lalana mankeny amin’ ny tanim-boaloboka izy.
Toy ny andevonan’ ny maina sy ny mafana ny ranom-panala no andevonan’ ny fiainan-tsi-hita ny mpanota. (Sheol h7585)
20 The womb forgets him, The worm sweetens [on] him, He is remembered no more, And wickedness is broken as a tree.
Manadino azy ny vohoka; manjary hanim-py ho an’ ny olitra izy ka tsy tsarovana intsony; Ary tapaka tahaka ny hazo ny ratsy fanahy,
21 Treating evil the barren [who] does not bear, And he does no good [to] the widow,
Dia ilay nandroba ny momba izay tsy niteraka ary tsy nanisy soa ny mpitondratena.
22 And [God] has drawn the mighty by His power, He rises, and none believes in life.
Kanefa halavain’ Andriamanitra amin’ ny heriny ny andron’ ny olo-mahery; Mitsangana indray ireo, na dia tsy nanampo izay ho velona intsony aza.
23 He gives to him confidence, and he is supported, And His eyes [are] on their ways.
Ataony mandry fahizay sy tsara tohana izy, sady tsinjoviny mandrakariva ny lalany.
24 They were high [for] a little, and they are not, And they have been brought low. They are shut up as all [others], And cut off as the head of an ear of grain.
Nasandratra izy, kanjo vetivety dia tsy ao intsony, dia mihalevona izy ka otazana tahaka ny olona rehetra, ary tangosana tahaka ny salohim-bary.
25 And if not now, who proves me a liar, And makes my word of nothing?”
Raha tsy izany, dia aoka hisy hamaky lainga ahy ka hampiseho ny teniko ho tsinontsinona.
