< Job 26 >
1 And Job answered and said,
Kisha Ayubu akajibu na kusema,
2 How hast thou helped the powerless; how saved the arm that is without strength!
“Mmemsaidiaje aliyedhaifu!
3 How hast thou counselled him that hath no wisdom, and abundantly declared the thing as it is!
Jinsi gani mmemshauri asiye na hekima na kutamka maneno yenye maarifa kwake!
4 For whom hast thou uttered words? and whose spirit came from thee?
Kwa msaada wa nani mmesema maneno haya? Ni roho ya nani iliyotoka ndani yenu?
5 The shades tremble beneath the waters and the inhabitants thereof;
Maiti inatetemeka chini ya maji, na vyote wilivyomo ndani yake.
6 Sheol is naked before him, and destruction hath no covering. (Sheol )
Kuzimu kuko wazi mbele ya Mungu; uharibifu hauna kizuizi dhidi yake. (Sheol )
7 He stretcheth out the north over empty space, he hangeth the earth upon nothing;
Huitandaza kaskazi juu ya nafasi wazi na kuining'iniza dunia hewani.
8 He bindeth up the waters in his thick clouds, and the cloud is not rent under them.
Huyafunga maji katika mawingu yake mazito, lakini hayagawanyiki chini yake.
9 He covereth the face of his throne, he spreadeth his cloud upon it.
Huufunika uso wa mwezi na kueneza mawingu yake juu yake.
10 He hath traced a fixed circle over the waters, unto the confines of light and darkness.
Amechora ukingo wa duara juu ya maji kama mpaka kati ya nuru na giza.
11 The pillars of the heavens tremble and are astonished at his rebuke.
Nguzo za mbinguni zinatikisika na zimestushwa na kukemea kwake.
12 He stirreth up the sea by his power, and by his understanding he smiteth through Rahab.
Aliituliza bahari kwa uwezo wake; kwa ufahamu wake alimwaribu Rahab
13 By his Spirit the heavens are adorned; his hand hath formed the fleeing serpent.
Kwa pumzi yake, aliziondoa mbingu kwa dhorubu; mbingu ziliondolewa kwa dhorubu; mkono wake ulimchoma nyoka anayekimbia.
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?
Tazama, hizi si zaidi ya madogo ya njia zake; Jinsi gani tunasikia akitunong'oneza! Ni nani awezaye kufahamu uwezo wake.
