1 Eka Elifaz ja-Teman nodwoko niya,
Wasephendula uElifazi umThemani wathi:
2 “Dhano adhana to konyo Nyasaye gangʼo? Kata bed ni ngʼato riek mogik, angʼo ma dokonygo Nyasaye?
Umuntu angaba losizo kuNkulunkulu yini, ngoba ohlakaniphileyo elusizo kuye ngokwakhe?
3 Ere ohala ma Jehova Nyasaye Maratego yudo kibedo ngʼat makare? Koso iparo ni ka yoregi oriere, to mano konye gangʼo?
Kuyintokozo yini kuSomandla ukuthi ulungile? Kumbe inzuzo kuye ukuthi uphelelise indlela zakho?
4 “Iparo ni Nyasaye kwedi kendo kumi nikech in ngʼama kare?
Uzakusola yini ngenxa yokwesaba kwakho? Uzangena lawe kusahlulelo.
5 Donge otimoni kamano nikech timbegi kod richo misetimo ngʼeny?
Ububi bakho kabubukhulu yini, lezono zakho kazilakuphela?
6 Ne ikawo lep oweteni kaka gir singo miweyogi duk; eka mondo gichuli mwandu mane gikawo kuomi.
Ngoba uthethe isibambiso kubafowenu kungelasizatho, wahlubula abanqunu izigqoko.
7 Ne ituono joma ool pi modho kendo ne ipando chiemo ne joma odenyo,
Kawumnathisanga amanzi odiniweyo, lolambileyo umgodlele ukudla.
8 ne itimo kamano kata obedo nine in ngʼama duongʼ, ne in gi lopi iwuon midakie, kendo ji noluori.
Kodwa umuntu olengalo, umhlaba ungowakhe, lowemukeleka ebusweni wahlala kuwo.
9 Ne ok ikonyo mon ma chwogi otho kendo nyithind kiye bende ne ithago.
Uxotshile abafelokazi bengelalutho, lengalo zezintandane zichotshoziwe.
10 Mano emomiyo obadho oluori moketi diere kendo masira mabiro apoya ochomi.
Ngakho-ke imijibila ikuhanqile, lovalo luhle lwakwesabisa,
11 Mano emomiyo mudho olwori ma ok inyal neno kendo chandruok malich olwori.
kumbe ubumnyama ukuze ungaboni, lesikhukhula samanzi sikusibekele.
12 “Donge Nyasaye odak e polo malo? Donge en malo moyombo nyaka sulwe man malo mogik?
UNkulunkulu kakho yini engqongeni yamazulu? Bona-ke ingqonga yezinkanyezi, ukuthi ziphakeme kangakanani.
13 To eka in iwacho ni, ‘Nyasaye to ongʼeyo angʼo? Ere kaka onyalo ngʼadonwa bura to boche polo oime?
Kanti uthi: UNkulunkulu wazini? Angahlulela yini engemuva komnyama onzima?
14 Boche mogingore oime, omiyo ok onyal nenowa seche mowuotho koni gi koni e kor polo.’
Amayezi amnyama ayisisibekelo sakhe ukuze angaboni, uhamba esigombolozini samazulu.
15 Idwaro siko e yore machon kuonde ma joma richo osewuothe,
Usunanzelele indlela endala yini abantu ababi abanyathela kuyo?
16 ma gin joma ne kargi olal nono kapok ndalogi ochopo kendo ma mise margi ne ohula oywero modhigo?
Abahluthunwa kungakabi yisikhathi; uzamcolo wathululwa phezu kwesisekelo sabo.
17 Negiwachone Nyasaye ni, ‘Wewa mos!’ En angʼo ma Jehova Nyasaye Maratego nyalo timonwa?
Abathi kuNkulunkulu: Suka kithi. LoSomandla wayenzeni kubo?
18 To eka Nyasaye ema ne opongʼo utegi gi gik mabeyo, omiyo an apogora gi rieko ma joma timbegi richo ngʼado.
Kanti yena wayegcwalise izindlu zabo ngokuhle; kodwa icebo labakhohlakeleyo likhatshana lami.
19 Joma kare neno masira to pod gimor amora, to joma pok otimo gimoro amora marach jarogi, kagiwacho niya,
Abalungileyo bayakubona bathokoze, lomsulwa ubahleka usulu.
20 ‘Adier, wasikwa osetieki, kendo mach osewangʼo mwandugi motieko pep!’
Isibili isitha sethu sichithiwe, lomlilo uqede insali yabo.
21 “Chiwri ni Nyasaye mondo ibed kode gi kwe, ma biro miyo idhi nyime maber.
Ake wejwayelane laye, ube lokuthula, ngalokho okuhle kuzakuza kuwe.
22 Rwak puonj mowuok e dhoge kendo kan wechene e chunyi.
Ake wemukele umlayo ovela emlonyeni wakhe, ubeke amazwi akhe enhliziyweni yakho.
23 Ka idok ir Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, to ibiro geri kendo. Ka igolo timbe maricho mabor gi dalani,
Uba ubuyela kuSomandla, uzakwakhiwa, ususe okubi khatshana lamathente akho.
24 kendo ka ikawo kitegi ma nengogi tek ka gima nono kendo ok ikwano dhahabu magi mabeyo mokuny Ofir ka gima gin lwendni manie rogo,
Ubusubeka igolide lakho othulini, legolide leOfiri elitsheni lezifula.
25 eka Jehova Nyasaye Maratego nobed dhahabu mari, kendo nobedni fedha maberie mogik.
Ngakho uSomandla uzakuba ligolide lakho, lesiliva sakho esinengi.
26 Adier, iniyud mor kuom Jehova Nyasaye Maratego kendo inichom wangʼi kuom Nyasaye.
Ngoba ngalesosikhathi uzazithokozisa ngoSomandla, uphakamisele ubuso bakho kuNkulunkulu.
27 Inilame kendo enowinji, kendo inichop singruok duto mane itimo.
Uzakhuleka kuye, akuzwe, ukhokhe izifungo zakho.
28 Gimoro amora michano timo biro dhi maber, kendo yoreni miluwo nobed maber.
Uzaquma-ke udaba, luqiniseke kuwe, lokukhanya kukhanye endleleni zakho.
29 Ka ji jaro jowetegi kendo ikwayo Jehova Nyasaye ni, ‘Resgi!’ to Jehova biro reso joma ijarogo.
Nxa behliselwe phansi, ubususithi: Phezulu! Abesesindisa othobekileyo ngamehlo.
30 Obiro resi kata ngʼama onge ketho; ngʼat ma kamano ibiro reso nikech in ngʼama kare.”
Uzamkhulula ongemsulwa; njalo ukhululwa ngokuhlanzeka kwezandla zakho.
