Job 26
1 Then Job answered, and said,
Awo Yobu n’addamu nti,
2 How thou have helped him who is without power! How thou have saved the arm that has no strength!
“Ng’oyambye oyo atalina maanyi! Ng’oyambye omukono ogwo ogutalina maanyi!
3 How thou have counseled him who has no wisdom, and plentifully declared sound knowledge!
Ng’amagezi ga kitalo ago g’owadde oyo atalina magezi! Ng’owadde okuluŋŋamizibwa okuyitirivu!
4 To whom have thou uttered words? And whose spirit came forth from thee?
Ani akuyambye okwogera ebigambo ebyo? Era mwoyo ki ogwogeredde mu kamwa ko?
5 Those who are deceased tremble beneath the waters and the inhabitants of it.
“Abafu kye balimu tekigumiikirizika, n’abo abali wansi w’amazzi ne bonna abagabeeramu.
Amagombe gali bwereere mu maaso ga Katonda; n’okuzikiriza tekulina kikubisse. (Sheol h7585)
7 He stretches out the north over empty space, and hangs the earth upon nothing.
Ayanjuluza eggulu ery’obukiikakkono mu bbanga ejjereere, awanika ensi awatali kigiwanirira.
8 He binds up the waters in his thick clouds, and the cloud is not burst under them.
Asiba amazzi mu bire bye; ate ebire tebyabika olw’okuzitoowererwa.
9 He encloses the face of his throne, and spreads his cloud upon it.
Abikka obwenyi bw’omwezi, agwanjululizaako ebire bye.
10 He has described a boundary upon the face of the waters, to the confines of light and darkness.
Ateekawo ekipimo ekiraga waggulu amazzi g’ennyanja we gayita, ng’ensalo eyawula ekitangaala n’ekizikiza.
11 The pillars of heaven tremble and are astonished at his rebuke.
Empagi z’eggulu zikankana, zeewuunya olw’okunenya kwe.
12 He stirs up the sea with his power, and by his understanding he smites through Rahab.
Afuukuula ennyanja n’obuyinza bwe, n’asalaasala Lakabu mu bitundutundu n’amagezi ge.
13 By his Spirit the heavens are garnished. His hand has pierced the swift serpent.
Yafuuwa omukka ogwatereeza eggulu, omukono gwe gwafumita omusota oguwulukuka.
14 Lo, these are but the periphery of his ways. And how small a whisper do we hear of him! But the thunder of his power who can understand?
Naye nga bino katundu butundu ku bye yakola. Nga kye tumuwulirako katundu butundu ku ekyo ky’ali! Ani ayinza okutegeera okubwatuka kw’obuyinza bwe?”
