< Job 26 >
Kisha Ayubu akajibu na kusema,
2 “How helpful you have been to this feeble man that I am. How supportive you have been to the weak.
“Mmemsaidiaje aliyedhaifu!
3 What good advice you have given to this ignorant man, demonstrating you have so much wisdom.
Jinsi gani mmemshauri asiye na hekima na kutamka maneno yenye maarifa kwake!
4 Who helped you speak these words? Who inspired you to say such things?
Kwa msaada wa nani mmesema maneno haya? Ni roho ya nani iliyotoka ndani yenu?
5 The dead tremble, those beneath the waters.
Maiti inatetemeka chini ya maji, na vyote wilivyomo ndani yake.
6 Sheol lies naked before God, Abaddon is uncovered. (Sheol )
Kuzimu kuko wazi mbele ya Mungu; uharibifu hauna kizuizi dhidi yake. (Sheol )
7 He stretches the northern sky over empty space; he hangs the world on nothing.
Huitandaza kaskazi juu ya nafasi wazi na kuining'iniza dunia hewani.
8 He gathers the rain in his storm clouds which do not break under the weight.
Huyafunga maji katika mawingu yake mazito, lakini hayagawanyiki chini yake.
9 He veils his throne; covering it with his clouds.
Huufunika uso wa mwezi na kueneza mawingu yake juu yake.
10 On the surface of the waters he set a boundary; he set a limit dividing light from darkness.
Amechora ukingo wa duara juu ya maji kama mpaka kati ya nuru na giza.
11 The pillars of heaven tremble; they shake with fear at his rebuke.
Nguzo za mbinguni zinatikisika na zimestushwa na kukemea kwake.
12 He calmed the sea with his power; because he knew what to do he crushed Rahab.
Aliituliza bahari kwa uwezo wake; kwa ufahamu wake alimwaribu Rahab
13 The breath of his voice made the heavens beautiful; with his hand he pierced the gliding serpent.
Kwa pumzi yake, aliziondoa mbingu kwa dhorubu; mbingu ziliondolewa kwa dhorubu; mkono wake ulimchoma nyoka anayekimbia.
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?”
Tazama, hizi si zaidi ya madogo ya njia zake; Jinsi gani tunasikia akitunong'oneza! Ni nani awezaye kufahamu uwezo wake.
