Job 26
1 Job replied,
Awo Yobu n’addamu nti,
2 “How helpful you have been to this feeble man that I am. How supportive you have been to the weak.
“Ng’oyambye oyo atalina maanyi! Ng’oyambye omukono ogwo ogutalina maanyi!
3 What good advice you have given to this ignorant man, demonstrating you have so much wisdom.
Ng’amagezi ga kitalo ago g’owadde oyo atalina magezi! Ng’owadde okuluŋŋamizibwa okuyitirivu!
4 Who helped you speak these words? Who inspired you to say such things?
Ani akuyambye okwogera ebigambo ebyo? Era mwoyo ki ogwogeredde mu kamwa ko?
5 The dead tremble, those beneath the waters.
“Abafu kye balimu tekigumiikirizika, n’abo abali wansi w’amazzi ne bonna abagabeeramu.
Amagombe gali bwereere mu maaso ga Katonda; n’okuzikiriza tekulina kikubisse. (Sheol h7585)
7 He stretches the northern sky over empty space; he hangs the world on nothing.
Ayanjuluza eggulu ery’obukiikakkono mu bbanga ejjereere, awanika ensi awatali kigiwanirira.
8 He gathers the rain in his storm clouds which do not break under the weight.
Asiba amazzi mu bire bye; ate ebire tebyabika olw’okuzitoowererwa.
9 He veils his throne; covering it with his clouds.
Abikka obwenyi bw’omwezi, agwanjululizaako ebire bye.
10 On the surface of the waters he set a boundary; he set a limit dividing light from darkness.
Ateekawo ekipimo ekiraga waggulu amazzi g’ennyanja we gayita, ng’ensalo eyawula ekitangaala n’ekizikiza.
11 The pillars of heaven tremble; they shake with fear at his rebuke.
Empagi z’eggulu zikankana, zeewuunya olw’okunenya kwe.
12 He calmed the sea with his power; because he knew what to do he crushed Rahab.
Afuukuula ennyanja n’obuyinza bwe, n’asalaasala Lakabu mu bitundutundu n’amagezi ge.
13 The breath of his voice made the heavens beautiful; with his hand he pierced the gliding serpent.
Yafuuwa omukka ogwatereeza eggulu, omukono gwe gwafumita omusota oguwulukuka.
14 This is just a little of all he does—what we hear of him is hardly a whisper, so who can understand his thunderous power?”
Naye nga bino katundu butundu ku bye yakola. Nga kye tumuwulirako katundu butundu ku ekyo ky’ali! Ani ayinza okutegeera okubwatuka kw’obuyinza bwe?”
