Jovu 28

1 Vahe'mo'za mopafinti silva kafi'za e'neri'za, golia tevefi kre'za erigru hu'za e'nerize.

Truly there is a mine for silver, and a place where gold is washed out.

2 Ainia mopafinti kafi'za eneri'za, have krefrage'za kopa e'nerize.

Iron is taken out of the earth, and stone is changed into brass by the fire.

3 Mopa agu'ama golima me'nea havegu'ma nehakaza vahe'mo'za ofenkame hanintirima hu'neama'afi tavi tagizageno remasa hu'nege'za, tavi masare ana haveramina hake'za e'nerize.

Man puts an end to the dark, searching out to the farthest limit the stones of the deep places of the dark.

4 Ana vahe'mo'za mopa agu'afina vahe'ma ovu'are keria kafi'za ufrete'za, ana kerifina nofite urami'za ihimareaza hu'za vute ete nehu'za eri'zana e'nerize.

He makes a deep mine far away from those living in the light of day; when they go about on the earth, they have no knowledge of those who are under them, who are hanging far from men, twisting from side to side on a cord.

5 Hagi mopamofo agofetura vahe'mo'za hoza eri'za nentaze. Hianagi mopamofo agu'afina goligu'ma nehakraza, tusi teve hanavazi'za haveramina kre nefragazageno tevemo'a tusi amuho huno mopa temara'mra nehie.

As for the earth, bread comes out of it; but under its face it is turned up as if by fire.

6 Anampinti'ma e'nerizana zago'amo'ma marerisa havema safaema nehaza have e'neri'za, golima me'nea mopanena kafi'za e'nerize.

Its stones are the place of sapphires, and it has dust of gold.

7 Goligu'ma nehakraza vahe'mo'zama ana kerifima unefraza kana oku'a me'nege'za, namamo'zane tumpamo'zanena zamavua onke'naze.

No bird has knowledge of it, and the hawk's eye has never seen it.

8 Ana nehazage'za zamavufaga rama nehaza afi zaga kfamo'za anankerifina zamagia rente'za vano nosazage'za, laioni mo'zanena anankerifina zamagaka renontaze.

The great beasts have not gone over it, and the cruel lion has not taken that way.

9 Goli eri'zama e'neriza vahe'mo'za kazinkazima hu'nea haveramina ru frage mafrage hunetre'za, agona kafi'za eri ankrinesaze.

Man puts out his hand on the hard rock, overturning mountains by the roots.

10 Ana vahe'mo'za haveramimpina kafi'za ufre'za, zago'amo'ma marerisa haveramina ke'za e'nerize.

He makes deep ways, cut through the rock, and his eye sees everything of value.

11 Anama nehu'za ana vahe'mo'za mopa kafi'za tima agafama huno'ma ne-eama'a renkaninere'za marerisa zantamima oku'ama fraki'nea zana erinte ama' nehaze.

He keeps back the streams from flowing, and makes the secret things come out into the light.

12 Hianagi vahe'mo'za knare antahi'zana igati ome e'neri'za, ama' antahi'zana igati ome e'nerize?

But where may wisdom be seen? and where is the resting-place of knowledge?

13 Mago vahe'mo'e huno knare antahi'zane, ama' antahi'zama eri kumara keno antahinora osu'ne. Na'ankure ama mopafima nemaniza vahe amu'nompina knare antahi'zane, ama' antahi'zana onketfa hugahane.

Man has not seen the way to it, and it is not in the land of the living.

14 Ra hagerimo'a huno, nagranena omani'ne nehanigeno, amefenkame mopa agu'afima me'nea tirumo'enena huno nagranena omani'ne huno hugahie

The deep waters say, It is not in me: and the sea says, It is not with me.

15 Knare antahi'zane, ama' antahi'zamofo mizama'amo'a rugatere'neankita, golireti'ene silvaretira miza osugahune.

Gold may not be given for it, or a weight of silver in payment for it.

16 Ofiri mopafinti'ma eri'naza golimofo mizama'ane, zago'amo'ma marerisa haverarena, Oniksine Safaema nehaza havemofo mizama'a agatere'ne.

It may not be valued with the gold of Ophir, with the onyx of great price, or the sapphire.

17 Knare antahi'zamo'a golimofo mizane kritoraisie nehaza havemofo mizama'a agatere'ne. Ana hu'neankino goliretike'ma tro'ma hu'nesnia zanteti'enena, knare antahi'zana miza osegahie.

Gold and glass are not equal to it in price, and it may not be exchanged for jewels of the best gold.

18 Hagi hagerimpima kororiema nehaza zama me'nea zanteti'ene, zago'amo'ma marerisa havema Jaspema nehaza haveretira miza osegahane. E'ina hu'neankino knare antahi'zamo'a periema nehaza zamofo mizanena agatere'ne.

There is no need to say anything about coral or crystal; and the value of wisdom is greater than that of pearls.

19 Hagi zago'amo'ma marerisa havema topasiema nehaza havema Itiopia mopareti'ma eri'naza havemofona, knare antahi'zamo'a agatere'ne. E'ina hu'neankino knare antahi'zamo'a hentofaza huno agruma hu'nea golia agatere'ne.

The topaz of Ethiopia is not equal to it, and it may not be valued with the best gold.

20 E'ina hu'neankita, knare antahi'zamo'a igati ne-e? Hagi ama' antahi'zana inantega me'nesnigeta kegahune?

From where then does wisdom come, and where is the resting-place of knowledge?

21 Mika zagamofo avurera knare antahi'zamo'a frakino me'neankino, knare avurgama hunte'negenoma anamifima hareno vanoma nehania namamo'enena onkegahie.

For it is kept secret from the eyes of all living, unseen by the birds of the air.

22 Fri vahe kumamo'ene vahe'ma zamazeri havizama hu kumamokea huke, knare antahi'zama hakeno ke kumara me'ne hazageta zaho kea antahino'e.

Destruction and Death say, We have only had word of it with our ears.

23 Knare antahi'zama eri kana Anumzamo Agrake keno antahino hu'ne. Ana hu'neankinka igati knare antahi'zana erighane. Anumzamo agrake antahi'ne.

God has knowledge of the way to it, and of its resting-place;

24 Na'ankure maka zama ama mopamofo agofetu'ma me'nea zantamina Anumzamo'a keharu huno negeno, monamofo fenka kazigama me'nea zantamina nege.

For his eyes go to the ends of the earth, and he sees everything under heaven.

25 Anumzamo'a zaho'mofona zaho'ma erisnia hankave'a avamente refko huno nemino, hampompima me'neno ko'ma arania zana tina, avamente refko huno Anumzamo'a ante'ne.

When he made a weight for the wind, measuring out the waters;

26 Ko'ene kopsi'nanena e'ikante megaha'e huno Anumzamo'a kasege retro hunte'negene ana kante amage nenta'e.

When he made a law for the rain, and a way for the thunder-flames;

27 Hagi ana'ma huteno'a Anumzamo'a knare antahi'zama rezagane so'e huno keno erinte fatgo nehuno, knare huno me'ne huno nehie.

Then he saw it, and put it on record; he gave it its fixed form, searching it out completely.

28 Ana nehuno Anumzamo'a amanage huno vahe'motagura hu'ne, Ra Anumzamofoma koro'ma huntezana, knare antahi'zana megeno, havi avu'ava zamofoma amefi'ma humisnanana, ama' antahi'zana erigahane hu'ne.

And he said to man, Truly the fear of the Lord is wisdom, and to keep from evil is the way to knowledge.
