< Job 26 >

1 And Job answered and said,
Eka Ayub nodwoko niya:
2 How hast thou helped the powerless; how saved the arm that is without strength!
“Mano kaka usekonyo joma onge teko! Mano kaka usereso joma yomyom!
3 How hast thou counselled him that hath no wisdom, and abundantly declared the thing as it is!
Mano kaka usengʼado rieko ne ngʼama onge gi rieko ka an kama, kendo uyie puonjo ngʼama ofuwo ka an kama!
4 For whom hast thou uttered words? and whose spirit came from thee?
En ngʼa mosemiyou rieko mar wuoyo kamano? Koso en paro mane ma un-go momiyo wechego wuok e dhou?
5 The shades tremble beneath the waters and the inhabitants thereof;
“Piny joma otho tetni, kendo ji duto man kuno luoro malich omako.
6 Sheol is naked before him, and destruction hath no covering. (Sheol h7585)
Piny joma otho ok opondo ne Nyasaye; kendo onge gima nyalo mone nene. (Sheol h7585)
7 He stretcheth out the north over empty space, he hangeth the earth upon nothing;
Oyaro polo man yo nyandwat mi oumgo kama ninono; kendo oliero piny ewi gima onge.
8 He bindeth up the waters in his thick clouds, and the cloud is not rent under them.
Nyasaye ema pongʼo boche polo kod pi, kendo omono pek mar pigno yiecho bochego.
9 He covereth the face of his throne, he spreadeth his cloud upon it.
Oumo wangʼ dwe mopor, koyaro bochene mondo ogengʼe.
10 He hath traced a fixed circle over the waters, unto the confines of light and darkness.
Ogoro giko wi piny ewi pige kaka kiew mar ler gi mudho.
11 The pillars of the heavens tremble and are astonished at his rebuke.
Sirni mag polo yiengni kendo kokwerogi to gilingʼ thi.
12 He stirreth up the sea by his power, and by his understanding he smiteth through Rahab.
Ne ochoko pige mag nam gi tekre owuon; kendo kuom riekone ne otieko Rahab.
13 By his Spirit the heavens are adorned; his hand hath formed the fleeing serpent.
Muche ema nomiyo polo olendo; kendo lwete ema ne onegogo thuol mane oyudo ringo tony.
14 Lo, these are the borders of his ways; but what a whisper of a word do we hear of him! And the thunder of his power, who can understand?
To magi gin mana dir tijene ma oko kende; kendo gin mana gik manok kende mikuodho kuome! Koro en ngʼa mongʼeyo gima Nyasaye nyalo timo gi tekone?”
