Job 16
1 Job replied [to Eliphaz and the others: ]
Ket simmungbat ni Job ket kinunana,
2 “I have heard things like that before; all of you, [instead of helping me, ] are only causing me to feel more miserable.
“Nakanggegakon kadagiti adu a kakasta a banbanag; nakaay-ay-aykayo amin a mangliwliwa.
3 Will your speeches, which are only hot air, never end [RHQ]? Eliphaz, what bothers/irritates you so much that you continue replying to me?
Addanto kadi paggibusan dagiti awan serserbina a sasao? Ania ti parikutmo ta sumungbatka a kas iti daytoy?
4 If it were you [three and not I] who were suffering, I could say the things that you are saying; I could make great speeches [to criticize/condemn you], and I could shake my head at you [to ridicule you].
Mabalinko met ti agsao a kas kadakayo, no addakayo iti saadko; Mabalinko nga urnongen ken pagtitiponen dagiti sasao a maibusor kadakayo ken agwingiwingak kadakayo iti pananglais.
5 But, [unlike all of you, ] with what I said [MTY] I would encourage you and try to cause your pain to be less.
O, kasano a pabilgenkayo babaen ti ngiwatko! Kasano a pabang-aren ti panangliwliwa dagiti bibigko ti ladingityo!
6 “But now, if I talk, my pain does not decrease, and if I am silent, my pain still certainly does not [RHQ] go away.
No agsaoak, saan a mabang-aran ti ladingitko; no isardengko ti agsasao, kasano a matulonganak?
7 God has now taken away all my strength, and he has destroyed my family.
Ngem ita O Dios, binannognak; binaybay-am amin a pamiliak.
8 He has shriveled me up, and people think that shows that I [am a sinner]. And people see that I am only skin and bones, and they think that proves that I [am guilty].
Pinagkuretretnak, a maysa a saksi a maibusor kaniak; tumakder ti kinakuttong ti bagik a maibusor kaniak, ken agsaksi daytoy a maibusor iti rupak.
9 Because God is very angry with me and hates me, [it is as though he is a wild animal that] [MET] has gnashed his teeth at me because he is my enemy.
Pinirsa-pirsaynak ti Dios iti pungtotna ken indadanesnak; Pinagngarietannak babaen ti ngipenna; pinatadem ti kabusorko dagiti matana kabayatan pirpirsayennak.
10 People gape/stare at me with their mouths open [to sneer at me]; they have struck me on the face/cheek to ridicule me, and they crowd around me to threaten me.
Ginuyabandak dagiti tattao; tinungpadak a siuumsi; naguummongda a maibusor kaniak.
11 [It is as though] God has handed me over to ungodly people and turned me over to the wicked [DOU].
Inyawatnak ti Dios kadagiti saan a nadiosan a tattao ken impurruaknak kadagiti ima dagiti nadangkes a tattao.
12 Previously, I was living peacefully, but he crushed me; [it is as though] he grabbed my neck and smashed me to pieces. [It is as though] [MET] he set me up like a target;
Natalnaak idi, ket binuraknak. Wen, binekkelnak ken indumudomnak a napirsa-pirsay; insaadnak pay a kas pagpuntaan.
13 people are surrounding me [and shooting arrows at me]. His arrows pierce my kidneys and cause the bile [from my liver] to spill onto the ground, and God does not pity me at all.
Palpalawlawandak dagiti pumapanana; tudtudoken ti Dios dagiti bekkelko, ken dinak kinaassian; imbukbokna ti aprok iti rabaw ti daga.
14 [It is as though] [MET] I am a wall that he is breaking through; he rushes at me like [SIM] a soldier [attacking his enemies].
Burburakenna ti didingko iti paulit-ulit; tumaray isuna nga umay kaniak a kasla maysa a mannakigubat.
15 [“Because I am mourning, ] I wear pieces of rough cloth that I have sewed together, and I sit [here] in the dirt, very depressed/discouraged.
Nangidaitak iti nakirsang a lupot iti rabaw ti kudilko; Intudokko ti sarak iti rabaw iti daga.
16 My face is red because I have cried very much, and there are dark circles around my eyes.
Nalabaga ti rupak iti panagsangsangit; adda kadagiti kalub ti matak ti aniniwan ni patay
17 [All this has happened to me] even though I have not acted violently [toward anyone], and I [always] pray sincerely/honestly [to God].
uray no awan ti kinaranggas kadagiti imak, ken nadalus ti kararagko.
18 [When I die, ] I want the ground [APO] to [act as though I had been murdered and] cry out against those who killed me, and I do not want anyone to stop me while I am demanding [that God act justly toward] me.
O daga, saanmo nga abbongan ti darak; awan koma ti disso a paginanaan ti asugko.
19 But even now, [I know that] there is someone in heaven who will testify for me, and he will say that what I have done is right.
Uray ita, adtoy, ti saksik ket adda iti langit; ti mangikalintegan kaniak ket adda iti ngato.
20 My [three] friends scorn/ridicule me, but my eyes are full of tears [while I cry out] to God.
Uy-uyawendak dagiti gagayyemko, ngem agar-arubos ti lulua dagiti matak iti Dios.
21 I pray that [the] one [who knows what I have done] would come to plead with God for me like people plead for their friends.
Dawatek iti dayta a saksi iti langit nga ikalinteganna daytoy a tao iti Dios a kas ti ar-aramiden ti maysa a tao iti kaarubana!
22 [I say this because] within a few years [I will die]; I will walk along the [to the grave] from which I will never return.”
Ta no lumabas dagiti sumagmamano a tawtawen, mapanakto iti disso a saanakton a makasubli.
