Ayub 17
1 Chunya onyosore, ndalona ongʼad machiek, kendo thona ema chiegni koda.
Umoya wami wonakele, insuku zami zicitshiwe, amangcwaba ngawami.
2 Jogo ma nyiera olwora koni gi koni; kendo asiko mana kaneno gero ma gin-go koda.
Kabakho lami yini abaklolodayo, lelihlo lami lichitha ubusuku ekuvukeleni kwabo?
3 “Yaye Nyasaye, nyisa gima idwaro. En ngʼa machielo mabiro rita?
Akubeke isibambiso sami kuwe; ngubani yena ozatshaya esandleni sami?
4 Isedino pachgi mondo kik gifweny adiera; omiyo ok ibi yie mondo gibed joloch.
Ngoba inhliziyo yabo uyifihlele ukuqedisisa; ngenxa yalokhu kawuyikubaphakamisa.
5 Ka ngʼato ondhogo osiepne mondo oyud mwandu to gima otimono nyaka dongʼ ewi nyithinde.
Okhuluma ngokuyenga kubangane, lamehlo abantwana bakhe azafiphala.
6 “Nyasaye osemiyo abedo ngʼama ji duto goyo ngero kendo ma ka ji oneno to ngʼudho kuome olawo.
Njalo ungimise ngaba yisaga sezizwe, ngaze ngaba ngokhafulelwayo phambi kwazo.
7 Wengena koro ok nen maber nikech kuyo ma an-go; denda duto olokore choke lilo.
Njalo ilihlo lami lifiphele ngosizi, lamalunga ami anjengesithunzi wonke.
8 Joma paro ni gin joma kare kibaji omako; kendo joma paro ni ler wacho ni ok angʼeyo Nyasaye.
Abaqotho bazakwethuswa yikho, longelacala uvukela ongamesabiyo uNkulunkulu.
9 Kata kamano, joma kare nosik koluwo yoregi makare, kendo joma yoregi oriere nomed bedo motegno.
Lolungileyo uzabambelela endleleni yakhe, lolezandla ezihlambulukileyo uzakwengeza amandla.
10 “Un duto weyauru kendo dhiuru mabor nikech ok aneno ngʼama riek kuomu-ka.
Kodwa-ke lina lonke, phendukani ake libuye, ngoba kangitholi ohlakaniphileyo phakathi kwenu.
11 Ndalona osekadho, chenrona duto osekethore, kaachiel gi gik moko duto ma chunya gombo.
Insuku zami zedlule, amacebo ami adabuke phakathi, lezifiso zenhliziyo yami.
12 Jogi loko otieno mi bed odiechiengʼ; ka piny otimo mudho to giwacho ni, ‘Ler ni machiegni.’
Bamisa ubusuku bube yimini; ukukhanya kuseduze phambi kobumnyama.
13 Ka dipo ni dala ma ageno dhiye en mana liel kende, kata kapo ni apedho kitandana e mudho, (Sheol h7585)
Uba ngilinda, ingcwaba lizakuba yindlu yami; ngendlala umbheda wami emnyameni. (Sheol h7585)
14 ka dipo ni awacho ne kethruok ni, ‘In e wuonwa,’ kendo aluongo kudni ni, ‘minwa,’ kata ni, ‘nyamera,’
Ngibiza ingcwaba ngisithi: Wena ungubaba; impethu ngisithi: Umama lodadewethu.
15 to koro geno mara ni kune? En ngʼa manyalo neno geno moro amora ma an-go?
Pho-ke ithemba lami lingaphi? Yebo, ithemba lami ngubani ozalibona?
