Job 26

1 Then Job made answer and said,

Awo Yobu n’addamu nti,

2 How have you given help to him who has no power! how have you been the salvation of the arm which has no strength!

“Ng’oyambye oyo atalina maanyi! Ng’oyambye omukono ogwo ogutalina maanyi!

3 How have you given teaching to him who has no wisdom, and fully made clear true knowledge!

Ng’amagezi ga kitalo ago g’owadde oyo atalina magezi! Ng’owadde okuluŋŋamizibwa okuyitirivu!

4 To whom have your words been said? and whose spirit came out from you?

Ani akuyambye okwogera ebigambo ebyo? Era mwoyo ki ogwogeredde mu kamwa ko?

5 The shades in the underworld are shaking; the waters and those living in them.

“Abafu kye balimu tekigumiikirizika, n’abo abali wansi w’amazzi ne bonna abagabeeramu.

6 The underworld is uncovered before him, and Destruction has no veil. (Sheol h7585)

Amagombe gali bwereere mu maaso ga Katonda; n’okuzikiriza tekulina kikubisse. (Sheol h7585)

7 By his hand the north is stretched out in space, and the earth is hanging on nothing.

Ayanjuluza eggulu ery’obukiikakkono mu bbanga ejjereere, awanika ensi awatali kigiwanirira.

8 By him the waters are shut up in his thick clouds, and the cloud does not give way under them.

Asiba amazzi mu bire bye; ate ebire tebyabika olw’okuzitoowererwa.

9 By him the face of his high seat is veiled, and his cloud stretched out over it.

Abikka obwenyi bw’omwezi, agwanjululizaako ebire bye.

10 By him a circle is marked out on the face of the waters, to the limits of the light and the dark.

Ateekawo ekipimo ekiraga waggulu amazzi g’ennyanja we gayita, ng’ensalo eyawula ekitangaala n’ekizikiza.

11 The pillars of heaven are shaking, and are overcome by his sharp words.

Empagi z’eggulu zikankana, zeewuunya olw’okunenya kwe.

12 By his power the sea was made quiet; and by his wisdom Rahab was wounded.

Afuukuula ennyanja n’obuyinza bwe, n’asalaasala Lakabu mu bitundutundu n’amagezi ge.

13 By his wind the heavens become bright: by his hand the quickly moving snake was cut through.

Yafuuwa omukka ogwatereeza eggulu, omukono gwe gwafumita omusota oguwulukuka.

14 See, these are only the outskirts of his ways; and how small is that which comes to our ears about him! But the thunder of his acts of power is outside all knowledge.

Naye nga bino katundu butundu ku bye yakola. Nga kye tumuwulirako katundu butundu ku ekyo ky’ali! Ani ayinza okutegeera okubwatuka kw’obuyinza bwe?”
