< Job 35 >

1 Elihu spake moreouer, and said,
Ary mbola niteny ihany Eliho ka nanao hoe:
2 Thinkest thou this right, that thou hast said, I am more righteous then God?
Ataonao va fa marina ny nanaovanao hoe: Ny fahamarinako mihoatra noho ny an’ Andriamanitra?
3 For thou hast said, What profiteth it thee and what auaileth it me, to purge me from my sinne?
Fa hoy ianao: Mahasoa ahy manao ahoana moa? Ary inona no soa azoko mihoatra noho ny avy amin’ ny fahotako?
4 Therefore will I answere thee, and thy companions with thee.
Izaho no hiteny hamaly anao Mbamin’ ny namanao.
5 Looke vnto the heauen, and see and behold the cloudes which are hyer then thou.
Jereo ary ny lanitra ka izahao; Ary tsinjovy iry habakabaka, avo loatra iny ka tsy takatrao.
6 If thou sinnest, what doest thou against him, yea, when thy sinnes be many, what doest thou vnto him?
Raha manota ianao, moa mahefa inona aminy? Ary raha maro ny fahotanao, mampaninona Azy moa izany?
7 If thou be righteous, what giuest thou vnto him? or what receiueth he at thine hand?
Raha marina ianao, dia hahazoany inona moa izany? Na inona no horaisiny avy amin’ ny tananao?
8 Thy wickednesse may hurt a man as thou art: and thy righteousnes may profite ye sonne of man.
Mihatra amin’ ny olona tahaka anao ihany ny ratsy ataonao; Ary mihatra amin’ ny olombelona ihany ny fahamarinanao.
9 They cause many that are oppressed, to crye, which crye out for ye violence of the mightie.
Noho ny habiazan’ ny fampahoriana no itarainan’ ny olona; Eny, minananana izy noho ny sandrin’ ny mahery,
10 But none saieth, Where is God that made me, which giueth songs in the nyght?
Nefa tsy misy manao hoe: Aiza Andriamanitra, Mpanao ahy, Izay mahatonga fiderana amin’ ny alina,
11 Which teacheth vs more then the beastes of the earth, and giueth vs more wisdome then the foules of the heauen.
Izay manome fahalalana antsika mihoatra noho ny an’ ny biby ambonin’ ny tany, dia Izay manome fahendrena antsika mihoatra noho ny an’ ny voro-manidina?
12 Then they crye because of the violence of the wicked, but he answereth not.
Eny, mitaraina mafy ireo (fa tsy mamaly Izy) noho ny fireharehan’ ny ratsy fanahy.
13 Surely God will not heare vanitie, neyther will the Almightie regard it.
Ny fitarainam-poana dia tsy mba henoin’ Andriamanitra, ary ny Tsitoha tsy mandinika izany.
14 Although thou sayest to God, Thou wilt not regard it, yet iudgement is before him: trust thou in him.
Na dia lazainao fa tsy mahita azy aza ianao, efa mby eo anatrehany ny ady, koa tsy maintsy miandry Azy ianao.
15 But nowe because his anger hath not visited, nor called to count the euill with great extremitie,
Koa raha saingy tsy mihatra ny fahatezerany, moa dia tsy fantany tsara koa va ny fihaikana?
16 Therfore Iob openeth his mouth in vaine, and multiplieth wordes without knowledge.
Mba miloa-bava foana anefa Joba ary manao teny maro tsy amim-pahalalana.
