Job 26

1 Then Job answered, and said:

Ty hoe ty natoi’ Iobe:

2 Whose helper art thou? is it of him that is weak? and dost thou hold up the arm of him that has no strength?

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

3 To whom hast thou given counsel? perhaps to him that hath no wisdom, and thou hast shewn thy very great prudence.

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

4 Whom hast thou desired to teach? was it not him that made life?

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

5 Behold the giants groan under the waters, and they that dwell with them.

Mihelohelo ambane rano ao o loloo, naho o mpimoneñeo.

6 Hell is naked before him, and there is no covering for destruction. (Sheol h7585)

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

7 He stretched out the north over the empty space, and hangeth the earth upon nothing.

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

8 He bindeth up the waters in his clouds, so that they break not out and fall down together.

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

9 He withholdeth the face of his throne, and spreadeth his cloud over it.

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

10 He hath set bounds about the waters, till light and darkness come to an end.

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

11 The pillars of heaven tremble, and dread at his beck.

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

12 By his power the seas are suddenly gathered together, and his wisdom has struck the proud one.

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

13 His spirit hath adorned the heavens, and his obstetric hand brought forth the winding serpent.

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

14 Lo, these things are said in part of his ways: and seeing we have heard scarce a little drop of his word, who shall be able to behold the thunder of his greatness?

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