Hello, here's my first draft attempt at translating the opening
of one of my favorite short pieces by Franz Kafka: "Poseidon."

vummeH raSDajDaq ba' poSayDon 'ej SIm.
>Poseidon sat at his desk, doing figures.
>Poseidon sa=C3=9F an seinem Arbeitstisch und rechnete.

Hoch bIQmey loH not 'e' mev.
>The administration of all the waters gave him endless work.
>Die Verwaltung aller Gew=C3=A4sser gab ihm unendliche Arbeit.

chaH, 'ach ghaHvaD potlhqu'mo' Qu'Daj, Hoch Simqa', 'ej vaj
loQ luQaH neH boQwI'pu'Daj.
>He could have had assistants, as many as he wanted =E2=80=94 and he
did have very many =E2=80=94 but since he took his job very seriously,
he would in the end go over all the figures and calculations
himself, and thus his assistants were of little help to him.
>Er h=C3=A4tte Hilfskr=C3=A4fte haben k=C3=B6nnen, wie viel er wollte, und =
er
hatte auch sehr viele, aber da er sein Amt sehr ernst nahm,
rechnete er alles noch einmal durch und so halfen ihm
die Hilfskr=C3=A4fte wenig.
