Job 26
1 Then Job answered, and said,
Na Hiob kasaa bio sɛ,
2 How thou have helped him who is without power! How thou have saved the arm that has no strength!
“Woaboa deɛ ɔnni tumi! Woagye basa a ɛnni ahoɔden!
3 How thou have counseled him who has no wisdom, and plentifully declared sound knowledge!
Woatu deɛ ɔnnim nyansa fo! Na woada nhunumu pa ara adi!
4 To whom have thou uttered words? And whose spirit came forth from thee?
Hwan na ɔboaa wo ma wokaa saa nsɛm yi? Hwan honhom na ɛkasa faa wo mu?
5 Those who are deceased tremble beneath the waters and the inhabitants of it.
“Awufoɔ wɔ ahoyera kɛseɛ mu, wɔn a wɔwɔ nsuo ase ne deɛ ɛte mu nyinaa.
Asamando da adagya Onyankopɔn anim; Ɔsɛeɛ nso nni nkatasoɔ. (Sheol h7585)
7 He stretches out the north over empty space, and hangs the earth upon nothing.
Ɔtrɛ atifi fam ewiem wɔ deɛ ɛda mpan so; na ɔde asase sensɛn ohunu so.
8 He binds up the waters in his thick clouds, and the cloud is not burst under them.
Ɔkyekyere nsuo hyɛ ne omununkum mu, nanso nsuo no mu duru ntumi mpae no.
9 He encloses the face of his throne, and spreads his cloud upon it.
Ɔtrɛ ne omununkum mu de kata ɔsrane ani.
10 He has described a boundary upon the face of the waters, to the confines of light and darkness.
Ɔhyɛ agyiraeɛ wɔ nsuo so de to hyeɛ wɔ hann ne esum ntam.
11 The pillars of heaven tremble and are astonished at his rebuke.
Ɔsoro nnyinasoɔ woso, na nʼanimka ma wɔn ho dwiri wɔn.
12 He stirs up the sea with his power, and by his understanding he smites through Rahab.
Ɔde ne tumi wɔsoo ɛpo ne nyansa mu, ɔtwitwaa ɛpobɔpɔn mu asinasini.
13 By his Spirit the heavens are garnished. His hand has pierced the swift serpent.
Ɔde nʼahomeɛ maa ewiem teeɛ; na ne nsa wɔɔ ɔtweaseɛ a ɔrewea.
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?
Yeinom yɛ ne nnwuma mfeafeaho; ɔka asomusɛm brɛoo kyerɛ yɛn! Na hwan na ɔbɛtumi ate ne tumi mmobɔmu no ase.”
