Job 32
1 So these three men ceased to answer Job, because he was righteous in his own eyes.
Mgbe ahụ, ndị ikom atọ ndị a kwusịrị ịsa Job okwu ọbụla ọzọ nʼihi na ọ hụrụ onwe ya dịka onye ezi omume.
2 Then the wrath of Elihu the son of Barachel, the Buzite, of the family of Ram, was kindled against Job. His wrath was kindled because he justified himself rather than God.
Ma oke iwe were Elihu nwa Barakel onye obodo Buz, si nʼikwu Ram megide Job nʼihi na ọ gụrụ onwe ya dịka onye ezi omume karịa Chineke.
3 Also his wrath was kindled against his three friends, because they had found no answer, and yet had condemned Job.
Iwe wekwara ya nʼebe mmadụ atọ ndị enyi Job nọ, nʼihi na ọ dịghị ebe ha hụtara Job dịka onye ụzọ ya na-ezighị ezi, ma ha gara nʼihu ịma ya ikpe.
4 Now Elihu had waited to speak to Job, because they were older than he.
Ma ruo ugbu a, Elihu agwaghị Job okwu ọbụla nʼihi na ndị ọzọ bụ okenye nʼebe ọ nọ.
5 When Elihu saw that there was no answer in the mouth of these three men, his wrath was kindled.
Ma mgbe ọ hụrụ na ndị ikom atọ ndị a enweghị okwu ọzọ ha ga-ekwu, nke a kpasuru ya iwe.
6 Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite answered, “I am young, and you are very old. Therefore I held back, and did not dare show you my opinion.
Ma Elihu nwa Barakel onye obodo Buz zara sị: “Abụ m nwantakịrị nʼọnụọgụgụ afọ m gbara, ma unu bụ ndị okenye; ọ bụ nke a mere m ji gbaa nkịtị nʼụjọ, hapụ ịgwa unu ihe m maara.
7 I said, ‘Days should speak, and multitude of years should teach wisdom.’
Echere m nʼobi m sị, ‘Ọnụọgụgụ afọ ga-ekwu okwu; ọtụtụ afọ ka ọ dịkwara ikuzi amamihe.’
8 But there is a spirit in man, and the Spirit of the Almighty gives them understanding.
Ma ọ bụ mmụọ dị nʼime mmadụ, nkuume nke Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile na-enye nghọta.
9 It is not the great who are wise, nor the aged who understand justice.
Ọ bụghị naanị ndị okenye bụ ndị mara ihe, ọ bụkwaghị naanị ndị gbara ọtụtụ afọ bụ ndị na-aghọta ihe ziri ezi.
10 Therefore I said, ‘Listen to me; I also will show my opinion.’
“Ya mere m na-asị, Geenụ m ntị; mụ onwe m ga-agwa unu ihe m ma.
11 “Behold, I waited for your words, and I listened for your reasoning, while you searched out what to say.
Echeere m oge niile unu na-ekwu okwu, egere m ntị na ntụgharị uche unu, oge niile unu na-achọpụta okwu unu ga-ekwu.
12 Yes, I gave you my full attention, but there was no one who convinced Job, or who answered his words, among you.
Egere m nnọọ unu ntị, ma ọ dịghị onye nʼime unu nwerela ike gosi Job ụzọ o si jehie; ọ dịghị onye nʼime unu zaghachiri ịrụ ụka ya.
13 Beware lest you say, ‘We have found wisdom. God may refute him, not man;’
Unu ekwula sị, ‘Anyị achọtala amamihe; ka Chineke na-abụghị mmadụ gosi ya mmehie ya.’
14 for he has not directed his words against me; neither will I answer him with your speeches.
Ma Job edozighị okwu ya nʼusoro megide m, ya mere agaghị m eji ịrụ ụka unu zaghachi ya.
15 “They are amazed. They answer no more. They do not have a word to say.
“Ha adaala mba na-enweghị ihe ọzọ ha ga-ekwu; ike okwu agwụla ha.
16 Shall I wait, because they do not speak, because they stand still, and answer no more?
M ga-echere, ugbu a ha deere duu, ugbu a ha guzo ebe ahụ na-enweghị ọsịsa?
17 I also will answer my part, and I also will show my opinion.
Mụ onwe m ga-ekwu uche m; ihe m maara ka mụ onwe m ga-ekwu,
18 For I am full of words. The spirit within me constrains me.
nʼihi na okwu juru m ọnụ, ọ bụkwa mmụọ dị nʼime m na-akwagide m.
19 Behold, my breast is as wine which has no vent; like new wineskins it is ready to burst.
Nʼime m, adị m ka mmanya na-agbọ ụfụfụ a kwuchiri na karama, dịka karama akpụkpọ ọhụrụ dị njikere ịgbawa.
20 I will speak, that I may be refreshed. I will open my lips and answer.
Aga m ekwurịrị okwu ka m sị nʼụzọ dị otu a chọta izuike; aga m emeghe egbugbere ọnụ m ma zaghachi.
21 Please do not let me respect any man’s person, neither will I give flattering titles to any man.
Agaghị m ekpe mmadụ ọbụla ikpe mmegide maọbụ jaa mmadụ ọbụla mma nʼụzọ na-ezighị ezi.
22 For I do not know how to give flattering titles, or else my Maker would soon take me away.
Nʼihi na ọ bụrụ na m bụ ọka nwere ire ụtọ nʼịja ihe na-ezighị ezi mma, Onye kere m ga-ewepụ m nʼoge na-adịghị anya.
