But me Elifaz,
Wen da bad kine guys tell me wass da bestes ting fo do,
No ways I goin lissen!
19 “Da guys dat do da right kine stuff,
Wen dey see bad kine tings happen to da bad guys,
Dey stay good inside.

Dey make fun a da bad guys.
20 Dey tell: ‘Fo shua, da guys dat stay agains us come wipe out awready!
Da fire burn up all dea rich kine stuffs dat still stay!’
21 “Go come tight wit God! Make eryting come good wit him!
Wen you do dat, good kine stuff goin happen to you.

Put eryting he tell you inside yoa head.

An take eryting dat no stay right far from yoa tent,

24 So throw way gold jalike az ony dirt,
An throw out yoa Ofir kine gold inside da gulches jalike az rocks.
