Job 32
1 Job's three friends stopped responding to him because he kept on protesting his innocence.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni àwọn ọkùnrin mẹ́tẹ̀ẹ̀ta wọ̀nyí dákẹ́ láti dá Jobu lóhùn, nítorí ó ṣe olódodo lójú ara rẹ̀.
2 Then Elihu, the son of Barachel the Buzite, of the family of Ram, grew angry. He was angry with Job for claiming he was right rather than God.
Nígbà náà ni inú bí Elihu ọmọ Barakeli ará Busi, láti ìbátan ìdílé Ramu; ó bínú si Jobu nítorí ti ó dá ara rẹ̀ láre kàkà ki ó dá Ọlọ́run láre.
3 Elihu was also angry at Job's three friends because they made it seem that God was wrong, because they had not been able to answer Job.
Inú sì bí i sí àwọn ọ̀rẹ́ rẹ̀ mẹ́tẹ̀ẹ̀ta, nítorí tí wọn kò rí ọ̀nà láti dá Jobu lóhùn bẹ́ẹ̀ ni wọ́n dá Jobu lẹ́bi.
4 Elihu had waited to for the other three to speak with Job since they were older than he was.
Ǹjẹ́ Elihu ti dúró títí tí Jobu fi sọ̀rọ̀ tán nítorí tí àwọn wọ̀nyí dàgbà ju òun lọ ní ọjọ́ orí.
5 But when he saw that they could not answer Job, he grew very angry.
Nígbà tí Elihu rí i pé ìdáhùn ọ̀rọ̀ kò sí ní ẹnu àwọn ọkùnrin mẹ́tẹ̀ẹ̀ta wọ̀nyí nígbà náà ni ó bínú.
6 Elihu, the son of Barachel the Buzite, said, “I am young, and you are old, which is why I was reluctant to tell you what I know.
Elihu, ọmọ Barakeli, ará Busi, dáhùn ó sì wí pé, “Ọmọdé ni èmi, àgbà sì ní ẹ̀yin; ǹjẹ́ nítorí náà ní mo dúró, mo sì ń bẹ̀rù láti fi ìmọ̀ mi hàn yin.
7 I told myself, ‘Those who are older should speak—those who are elderly should teach wisdom.’
Èmi wí pé ọjọ́ orí ni ìbá sọ̀rọ̀, àti ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ ọdún ní ìbá kọ́ ni ní ọgbọ́n.
8 However, there is a spirit in human beings, the breath of the Almighty, that gives them understanding.
Ṣùgbọ́n ẹ̀mí kan ní ó wà nínú ènìyàn àti ìmísí Olódùmarè ní ì sì máa fún wọn ní òye.
9 It is not the old who are wise, or the elderly who know what is right.
Ènìyàn ńlá ńlá kì í ṣe ọlọ́gbọ́n, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni àwọn àgbà ní òye ẹ̀tọ́ kò yé.
10 That's why I'm telling you to listen to me now—let me tell you what I know.
“Nítorí náà ní èmí ṣe wí pé, ẹ dẹtí sílẹ̀ sí mi; èmí pẹ̀lú yóò fi ìmọ̀ mi hàn.
11 Well, I waited to hear what you had to say, listening for your insights as you looked for the right words to speak.
Kíyèsi i, èmí ti dúró de ọ̀rọ̀ yín; èmi fetísí àròyé yín, nígbà tí ẹ̀yin ń wá ọ̀rọ̀ ti ẹ̀yin yóò sọ;
12 I paid close attention to all of you, and none of you have proved Job wrong or answered his arguments.
àní, mo fiyèsí yín tinútinú. Sì kíyèsi i, kò sí ẹnìkan nínú yín tí ó le já Jobu ní irọ́; tàbí tí ó lè dá a lóhùn àríyànjiyàn rẹ̀!
13 Don't say to yourselves, ‘We are so wise,’ for God will prove him wrong, not a human being.
Kí ẹ̀yin kí ó má ṣe wí pé, ‘Àwa wá ọgbọ́n ní àwárí; Ọlọ́run ni ó lè bì í ṣubú kì í ṣe ènìyàn.’
14 Job didn't line up his arguments against me, and I won't answer him the way you did.
Bí òun kò ti sọ̀rọ̀ sí mi, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni èmi kì yóò fi ọ̀rọ̀ yín dá a lóhùn.
15 You sit there speechless with nothing left to say.
“Ẹnu sì yà wọ́n, wọn kò sì dáhùn mọ́, wọ́n ṣíwọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ í sọ.
16 Should I continue to wait since you're no longer talking, just standing there saying nothing?
Mo sì retí, nítorí wọn kò sì fọhùn, wọ́n dákẹ́ jẹ́ẹ́; wọn kò sì dáhùn mọ́.
17 No—now I'll give my answer too. I'll tell you what I know.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni èmí ó sì dáhùn nípa ti èmi, èmí pẹ̀lú yóò sì fi ìmọ̀ mi hàn.
18 I have so much to say I can't hold the words back!
Nítorí pé èmi kún fún ọ̀rọ̀ sísọ, ẹ̀mí ń rọ̀ mi ni inú mi.
19 Inside I'm like fermenting wine all bottled up; like new wineskins ready to explode!
Kíyèsi i, ikùn mi dàbí ọtí wáìnì, tí kò ní ojú-ìhò; ó múra tán láti bẹ́ bí ìgò-awọ tuntun.
20 I have to speak before I burst; I will open my lips to answer him.
Èmí ó sọ, kí ara kí ó le rọ̀ mí, èmí ó sí ètè mi, èmí ó sì dáhùn.
21 I will not take sides, and I'm not going to flatter anyone.
Lóòtítọ́ èmi kì yóò ṣe ojúsàájú sí ẹnìkankan, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni èmí kì yóò sì ṣe ìpọ́nni fún ẹnìkan.
22 I don't know how to flatter, and if I did my Creator would soon destroy me.
Nítorí pé èmí kò mọ̀ ọ̀rọ̀ ìpọ́nni í sọ ní ṣíṣe bẹ́ẹ̀, ẹlẹ́dàá mi yóò mú mi kúrò lọ́gán.
