Job 26

1 Then Job answered:

Ty hoe ty natoi’ Iobe:

2 “How you have helped the powerless and saved the arm that is feeble!

Akore ty nañimba’o ty tsy aman’ ozatse? ty nandrombaha’o ty sirañe tsy an-kafatrarañe?

3 How you have counseled the unwise and provided fully sound insight!

Akore ty nanoroa’o ty tsy aman-kilala; ty nitaroñe’o hasoa-anatse ami’ty maro?

4 To whom have you uttered these words? And whose spirit spoke through you?

Ia ty nañakara’o saontsy? Vaho fañahi’ ia ty nitroboeñe ama’o?

5 The dead tremble— those beneath the waters and those who dwell in them.

Mihelohelo ambane rano ao o loloo, naho o mpimoneñeo.

6 Sheol is naked before God, and Abaddon has no covering. (Sheol h7585)

Miboridañe añatrefa’e eo ty Tsikeokeoke; tsy aman-tsaro’e ty Fandrotsahañe. (Sheol h7585)

7 He stretches out the north over empty space; He hangs the earth upon nothing.

Alama’e an-dikerañe ambone’ i hoakoakey i avaratsey; aradorado’e ambone hakoahañe eo ty tane toy.

8 He wraps up the waters in His clouds, yet the clouds do not burst under their own weight.

Aholonkolo’e amo raho’eo ty rano, fe tsy miporitsak’ ambane i rahoñey.

9 He covers the face of the full moon, spreading over it His cloud.

Takona’e ty tarehe’ i zava-volañey, alafi’e ama’e i raho’ey.

10 He has inscribed a horizon on the face of the waters at the boundary between light and darkness.

Nañarikatoha’e sokitse ty an-tarehe’ o ranoo hañefera’e amy ieñey i hazavàñey.

11 The foundations of heaven quake, astounded at His rebuke.

Miezeñezeñe o fahan-dikerañeo, mianifañe ami’ty enda’e.

12 By His power He stirred the sea; by His understanding He shattered Rahab.

An-kaozarañe ty nampipendreña’e i riakey; aman-kihitse ty nitomboha’e i Rahàbe.

13 By His breath the skies were cleared; His hand pierced the fleeing serpent.

I kofò’ey ty ampisava’e i likerañey; trinofam-pità’e i mereñe mitsiritsiokey.

14 Indeed, these are but the fringes of His ways; how faint is the whisper we hear of Him! Who then can understand the thunder of His power?”

Inay, romoromom-pitoloña’e irezay, le volam-bisibisike ty ijanjiñañe, Fe ia ty mahafohiñe i figorogodoiña’e ra’elahiy?
