Job 34
1 Moreover Elihu answered and said,
Intuloy pay ni Elihu ti nagsao:
2 Hear my words, ye wise [men]; and give ear unto me, ye that have knowledge.
“Dumngegkayo iti sasaok, dakayo a masisirib a lallaki; dumngegkayo kaniak dakayo nga addaan pannakaamo.
3 For the ear trieth words, as the palate tasteth food.
Ta mangngeg ti lapayag ti sasao a kas iti dila a ramananna ti taraon.
4 Let us choose for ourselves what is right; let us know among ourselves what is good!
Pilientayo ti nalinteg para iti bagitayo: sukimatentayo ti pagsayaatan ti bagbagitayo.
5 For Job hath said, I am righteous, and God hath taken away my judgment:
Ta kinuna ti Job, 'Nalintegak, ngem inikkat ti Dios ti kalintegak.
6 Should I lie against my right? My wound is incurable without transgression.
Malaksid kadagiti kalintegak, naibilangak nga ulbod. Saan a maagasan ti sugatko, uray awan basolko.'
7 What man is like Job? he drinketh up scorning like water,
Ania a kita ti tao ti kasla kenni Job a nanginom iti pannakalais a kasla danum,
8 And goeth in company with workers of iniquity, and walketh with wicked men.
a makikadkadua kadagiti agar-aramid iti dakes, ken makikuykuyog kadagiti nadangkes a tattao?
9 For he hath said, It profiteth not a man if he delight himself in God.
Ta kinunana, 'Awan ti serbina iti maysa a tao iti panagar-aramid iti pagayatan ti Dios.'
10 Therefore hearken unto me, ye men of understanding: Far be wickedness from God, and wrong from the Almighty!
Isu a dumngegkayo kaniak, dakayo a tattao a makaawat: adayo nga agaramid ti Dios iti kinadangkes; adayo nga agaramid ti Mannakabalin amin iti basol.
11 For a man's work will he render to him, and cause every one to find according to [his] way.
Ta baybayadanna ti trabaho ti maysa a tao; gungunnaanna ti tunggal tao a kas maiyannurot kadagiti bukodna a wagas.
12 Yea, surely, God acteth not wickedly, and the Almighty perverteth not judgment.
Pudno, awan ti ar-aramiden ti Dios a kinadangkes, wenno saan a balballikugen ti Mannakabalin amin ti hustisia.
13 Who hath entrusted to him the earth? and who hath disposed the whole world?
Siasino ti nangisaad kenkuana nga agturay iti daga? Siasino ti nangikabil iti lubong iti turayna?
14 If he only thought of himself, [and] gathered unto him his spirit and his breath,
No ti amin a panpanunotenna ket para laeng kenkuana, ken no ibabawina ti espirituna ken angesna,
15 All flesh would expire together, and man would return to the dust.
ket mapukaw amin a lasag; agsubli manen ti sangkataoan iti tapok.
16 If now [thou hast] understanding, hear this: give ear to the voice of my words!
No ita ket addaanka ti pannakaawat, denggem daytoy; alingagem dagiti sasaok.
17 Should he that hateth right indeed govern? and wilt thou condemn the All-just?
Makaituray kadi ti maysa a tao a gumugura iti hustisia? Pabasulem kadi ti Dios a nalinteg ken nabileg?
18 Shall one say to a king, Belial? to nobles, Wicked?
Ti Dios a nangibaga iti maysa nga ari, 'Managbasolka,' wenno mangibaga kadagiti natakneng, 'Nadangkeskayo'?
19 [How then to him] that accepteth not the persons of princes, nor regardeth the rich man more than the poor? for they are all the work of his hands.
Ti Dios a saan a mangidumduma kadagiti papangulo ken saanna a bigbigen a nangatngato dagiti nababaknang a tattao ngem kadagiti nakurapay, ta inaramid ida amin ti imana.
20 In a moment they die, even at midnight the people are convulsed and pass away; and the strong are taken away without hand.
Mataydanto iti apagdarikmat; masinganto dagiti tattao iti tengnga iti rabii ket mataydanto; maikkatto dagiti nabibileg a tattao, ngem saan a babaen kadagiti ima iti tao.
21 For his eyes are upon the ways of man, and he seeth all his steps.
Ta dagiti mata ti Dios ket adda kadagiti wagas ti maysa a tao; makitkitana amin nga addangna.
22 There is no darkness, nor shadow of death, where the workers of iniquity may hide themselves.
Awan ti kinasipnget, awan ti nasipnget a mabalin a paglemmengan dagiti agar-aramid iti dakes.
23 For he doth not long consider a man, to bring him before God in judgment.
Ta saanen a kasapulan a sukimaten pay ti Dios ti tao; saanen a kasapulan a a mapan ti siasinoman a tao iti sangoananna para iti pannakaukom.
24 He breaketh in pieces mighty men without inquiry, and setteth others in their stead;
Pirsapirsayenna dagiti mabigbigbig a tattao gapu kadagiti aramidda a saanen a kasapulan pay iti nainget a panangsukimat; isublina dagiti dadduma kadagiti bukodda a lugar.
25 Since he knoweth their actions; and he overthroweth [them] in the night, and they are crushed.
Iti daytoy a wagas, ammonan dagiti naaramidda; ibellengna dagitoy a tattao iti rabii, nadadaeldan.
26 He striketh them as wicked men in the open sight of others,
Iti imatang dagiti dadduma a tattao, papatayenna ida gapu kadagiti nadangkes nga aramidda a kasla kadagiti kriminal
27 Because they have turned back from him, and would consider none of his ways;
gapu ta simminada manipud kenkuana ken saanda a binigbig ti uray maysa kadagiti wagasna.
28 So that they cause the cry of the poor to come unto him, and he heareth the cry of the afflicted.
Iti daytoy a wagas, naipangngegda kenkuana dagiti asug dagiti napanglaw a tattao, nangngegna dagiti asug dagiti marigrigatan a tattao.
29 When he giveth quietness, who then will disturb? and when he hideth [his] face, who shall behold him? and this towards a nation, or towards a man alike;
No agul-ulimek isuna, siasino ti makababalaw kenkuana? No ilingedna ti rupana, siasino ti makadlaw kenkuana? Iturturayanna ti entero a nasion ken dagiti tattao,
30 That the ungodly man reign not, that the people be not ensnared.
tapno saan a makapagturay ti tao nga awan diosna, tapno awan iti makadangran kadagiti tattao.
31 For hath he said unto God, I bear [chastisement], I will not offend;
Kaspangarigan adda ti agibaga iti Dios, 'Pudno a nagbasolak, ngem saanakon a pulos nga agaramid iti basol;
32 What I see not, teach thou me; if I have done wrong, I will do so no more?
isurom kaniak dagiti saanko a makitkita; nagbasolak, ngem saankonton a pulos nga aramiden daytoy.'
33 Shall he recompense according to thy mind? for thou hast refused [his judgment]; for thou so choosest, and not I; speak then what thou knowest.
Ti panagkunam kadi ket dusaen ti Dios ti basol dayta a tao, agsipud ta saanmo a kayat ti ar-aramiden ti Dios? Masapul a sika ti agpili, saan a siak. Ibagam ngarud ti ammom.
34 Men of understanding will say to me, and a wise man who heareth me:
Ibaganto kaniak dagiti tattao a mannakaawat—pudno, ibaganto ti tunggal masirib a makangkangngeg kaniak,
35 Job hath spoken without knowledge, and his words were not with intelligence.
'Agsasao ni Job iti awan kaes-eskanna; dagiti sasaona ket minamaag.
36 Would that Job may be tried unto the end, because of [his] answers after the manner of evil men!
No laeng koma ta maisaklang ni Job iti pangukoman ket maibaga amin dagiti kababassitan a banag iti kasasaadna gapu iti panagsasaona a kasla nadangkes a tattao.
37 For he addeth rebellion unto his sin, he clappeth [his hands] among us, and multiplieth his words against God.
Ta naynayunanna ti basolna iti panagsukir; ipalpalakpakna dagiti imana a manglalais iti nagtetengngaantayo; agipenpenpen isuna kadagiti sasao a maibusor iti Dios.”
