Job 37
1 “At this my heart also pounds and leaps from its place.
“Esia na nye dzi lã kpo eye wòti kpo le enɔƒe.
2 Listen closely to the thunder of His voice and the rumbling that comes from His mouth.
O ɖo to! Ɖo to eƒe gbe ƒe gbeɖeɖe kple bublu si le dodom tso eƒe nu me.
3 He unleashes His lightning beneath the whole sky and sends it to the ends of the earth.
Eɖe asi le eƒe dzokeke ŋu ɖe yame katã eye wòɖoe ɖe anyigba ƒe mlɔenu ke hã
4 Then there comes a roaring sound; He thunders with His majestic voice. He does not restrain the lightning when His voice resounds.
Eƒe gbeɖeɖe kplɔa esia ɖo, ebluna kple eƒe ŋutikɔkɔe ƒe gbe. Ne eƒe gbe ɖi la, meléa naneke ɖi o.
5 God thunders wondrously with His voice; He does great things we cannot comprehend.
Mawu ƒe gbe bluna le nukumɔwo dzi, ewɔa nu dzɔtsu siwo kɔ wu míaƒe gɔmesese.
6 For He says to the snow, ‘Fall on the earth,’ and to the gentle rain, ‘Pour out a mighty downpour.’
Egblɔna na tsikpe be, ‘Dza ɖe anyigba dzi’ eye na tsi be, ‘Nye tsi gã aɖe nàdza.’
7 He seals up the hand of every man, so that all men may know His work.
Ale be amegbetɔ siwo katã wòwɔ la nanya eƒe dɔwɔwɔ, eye wòɖoa asi ame sia ame ƒe dɔ dzi.
8 The wild animals enter their lairs; they settle down in their dens.
Gbemelãwo sina bena eye wonɔa woƒe dowo me.
9 The tempest comes from its chamber, and the cold from the driving north winds.
Ahom tsoa eƒe xɔa me vana eye ya sesẽwo hea vuvɔ vɛ.
10 By the breath of God the ice is formed and the watery expanses are frozen.
Mawu ƒe gbɔgbɔ hea fafa gã aɖe vɛ eye tsi gbanawo dzi zua tsikpe.
11 He loads the clouds with moisture; He scatters His lightning through them.
Enyɔa tsi ɖe lilikpowo me, ekakaa eƒe dzikedzo to wo me.
12 They swirl about, whirling at His direction, accomplishing all that He commands over the face of all the earth.
Le eƒe mɔfiafia nu wotrɔa trɔgodoe le anyigba la katã ŋkume, be woawɔ nu sia nu si ƒe se wòde na wo.
13 Whether for punishment or for His land, He accomplishes this in His loving devotion.
Ehea lilikpowo vɛ be woahe to na amewo alo be woade tsi anyigba, ne wòaɖe eƒe lɔlɔ̃ afia ameawo.
14 Listen to this, O Job; stand still and consider the wonders of God.
“Hiob, ɖo to nàse nu sia, zi ɖoɖoe eye nàbu Mawu ƒe nukunuwo ŋu.
15 Do you know how God dispatches the clouds or makes the lightning flash?
Ènya ale si Mawu léa lilikpowo ɖe asii, eye wònana dzi kea dzoa?
16 Do you understand how the clouds float, those wonders of Him who is perfect in knowledge?
Ènya ale si lilikpowo wɔ hafi le yamea, ènya nukunu siwo nye ame si de blibo le gɔmesese me la tɔa?
17 You whose clothes get hot when the land lies hushed under the south wind,
Wò ame si le fifia tem le wò awuwo me, ne dzieheya xɔdzo nya ƒo to anyigba dzi ko,
18 can you, like Him, spread out the skies to reflect the heat like a mirror of bronze?
àte ŋu akpe ɖe eŋu le dziŋgɔli ƒe keke ɖe yame me, nu si sesẽ abe ahuhɔ̃e si wowɔ kple akɔbli enea?
19 Teach us what we should say to Him; we cannot draw up our case when our faces are in darkness.
“Gblɔ nu si míagblɔ nɛ la na mí, míate ŋu ahe míaƒe nya ayi egbɔe o elabena míawo míele viviti me.
20 Should He be told that I want to speak? Would a man ask to be swallowed up?
Wonegblɔ nɛ be medi be maƒo nua? Ɖe ame aɖe abia be wonemi ye agbagbea?
21 Now no one can gaze at the sun when it is bright in the skies after the wind has swept them clean.
Azɔ la, ame aɖeke mate ŋu akpɔ ɣe o elabena ele keklẽm le dziƒo ŋutɔ, esi yaƒoƒo na eƒe mo kɔ nyuie.
22 Out of the north He comes in golden splendor; awesome majesty surrounds Him.
Edo tso anyiehe kple sikatsyɔ̃ɖoɖo. Mawu ɖiɖi va le ŋɔdzi ƒe ŋutikɔkɔe me.
23 The Almighty is beyond our reach; He is exalted in power! In His justice and great righteousness He does not oppress.
Ame aɖeke matu Ŋusẽkatãtɔ la o elabena togbɔ be eƒe ŋusẽ de dzi bobobo, le eƒe afiatsotso kple dzɔdzɔenyenye gã la me hã la, metea ame aɖeke ɖe anyi o.
24 Therefore, men fear Him, for He is not partial to the wise in heart.”
Eya ta amewo dea bubu eŋu elabena ɖe medea bubu ame siwo katã ƒe dzi me nunya le la ŋu oa?”
