| 23:1. Then Job [0347] answered [06030] (8799) and said [0559] (8799), |
23:1. Tetapi Ayub menjawab: |
| 23:2 Even to day [03117] {is} my complaint [07879] bitter [04805]: my stroke [03027] is heavier [03513] (8804) than my groaning [0585]. |
23:2 "Sekarang ini keluh kesahku menjadi pemberontakan, tangan-Nya menekan aku, sehingga aku mengaduh. |
| 23:3 Oh that [05414] (8799) I knew [03045] (8804) where I might find [04672] (8799) him! {that} I might come [0935] (8799) {even} to his seat [08499]! |
23:3 Ah, semoga aku tahu mendapatkan Dia, dan boleh datang ke tempat Ia bersemayam. |
| 23:4 I would order [06186] (8799) {my} cause [04941] before [06440] him, and fill [04390] (8762) my mouth [06310] with arguments [08433]. |
23:4 Maka akan kupaparkan perkaraku di hadapan-Nya, dan kupenuhi mulutku dengan kata-kata pembelaan. |
| 23:5 I would know [03045] (8799) the words [04405] {which} he would answer [06030] (8799) me, and understand [0995] (8799) what he would say [0559] (8799) unto me. |
23:5 Maka aku akan mengetahui jawaban-jawaban yang diberikan-Nya kepadaku dan aku akan mengerti, apa yang difirmankan-Nya kepadaku. |
| 23:6 Will he plead [07378] (8799) against [05978] me with {his} great [07230] power [03581]? No; but he would put [07760] (8799) {strength} in me. |
23:6 Sudikah Ia mengadakan perkara dengan aku dalam kemahakuasaan-Nya? Tidak, Ia akan menaruh perhatian kepadaku. |
| 23:7 There the righteous [03477] might dispute [03198] (8737) with him; so should I be delivered [06403] (8762) for ever [05331] from my judge [08199] (8802). |
23:7 Orang jujurlah yang akan membela diri di hadapan-Nya, dan aku akan bebas dari Hakimku untuk selama-lamanya. |
| 23:8. Behold, I go [01980] (8799) forward [06924], but he {is} not {there}; and backward [0268], but I cannot perceive [0995] (8799) him: |
23:8. Sesungguhnya, kalau aku berjalan ke timur, Ia tidak di sana; atau ke barat, tidak kudapati Dia; |
| 23:9 On the left hand [08040], where he doth work [06213] (8800), but I cannot behold [02372] (8799) {him}: he hideth [05848] (8799) himself on the right hand [03225], that I cannot see [07200] (8799) {him}: |
23:9 di utara kucari Dia, Ia tidak tampak, aku berpaling ke selatan, aku tidak melihat Dia. |
| 23:10 But he knoweth [03045] (8804) the way [01870] that I take [05978]: {when} he hath tried [0974] (8804) me, I shall come forth [03318] (8799) as gold [02091]. |
23:10 Karena Ia tahu jalan hidupku; seandainya Ia menguji aku, aku akan timbul seperti emas. |
| 23:11 My foot [07272] hath held [0270] (8804) his steps [0838], his way [01870] have I kept [08104] (8804), and not declined [05186] (8686). |
23:11 Kakiku tetap mengikuti jejak-Nya, aku menuruti jalan-Nya dan tidak menyimpang. |
| 23:12 Neither have I gone back [04185] (8686) from the commandment [04687] of his lips [08193]; I have esteemed [06845] (8804) the words [0561] of his mouth [06310] more than my necessary [02706] {food}. |
23:12 Perintah dari bibir-Nya tidak kulanggar, dalam sanubariku kusimpan ucapan mulut-Nya. |
| 23:13. But he {is} in one [0259] {mind}, and who can turn [07725] (8686) him? and {what} his soul [05315] desireth [0183] (8765), even {that} he doeth [06213] (8799). |
23:13. Tetapi Ia tidak pernah berubah--siapa dapat menghalangi Dia? Apa yang dikehendaki-Nya, dilaksanakan-Nya juga. |
| 23:14 For he performeth [07999] (8686) {the thing that is} appointed [02706] for me: and many [07227] such [02007] {things are} with him. |
23:14 Karena Ia akan menyelesaikan apa yang ditetapkan atasku, dan banyak lagi hal yang serupa itu dimaksudkan-Nya. |
| 23:15 Therefore am I troubled [0926] (8735) at his presence [06440]: when I consider [0995] (8709), I am afraid [06342] (8799) of him. |
23:15 Itulah sebabnya hatiku gemetar menghadapi Dia, kalau semuanya itu kubayangkan, maka aku ketakutan terhadap Dia. |
| 23:16 For God [0410] maketh my heart [03820] soft [07401] (8689), and the Almighty [07706] troubleth [0926] (8689) me: |
23:16 Allah telah membuat aku putus asa, Yang Mahakuasa telah membuat hatiku gemetar; |
| 23:17 Because I was not cut off [06789] (8738) before [06440] the darkness [02822], {neither} hath he covered [03680] (8765) the darkness [0652] from my face [06440]. |
23:17 sebab bukan karena kegelapan aku binasa, dan bukan juga karena mukaku ditutupi gelap gulita." |
