< Job 26 >

1 Bvt Iob answered, and sayde,
Ningĩ Ayubu agĩcookia atĩrĩ:
2 Whom helpest thou? him that hath no power? sauest thou the arme that hath no strength?
“Kaĩ ũrĩ gũteithia ũrĩa ũtarĩ na ũhoti-ĩ! Kaĩ ũrĩ kũhonokia guoko kũrĩa gũtarĩ na hinya-ĩ!
3 Whome counsellest thou? him that hath no wisedome? thou shewest right well as the thing is.
Kaĩ ũrĩ gũtaara mũndũ ũtarĩ na ũũgĩ-ĩ! Na atĩrĩ, kaĩ nĩwonanĩtie ũmenyo mũnene-ĩ!
4 To whom doest thou declare these words? or whose spirit commeth out of thee?
Nũũ wagũteithia kwaria ciugo icio? Na nĩ roho waũ waria na kanua gaku?
5 The dead things are formed vnder the waters, and neere vnto them.
“Arĩa akuũ marĩ na ruo rũnene, o acio marĩ rungu rwa maaĩ na kĩrĩa gĩothe gĩtũũraga kuo.
6 The graue is naked before him, and there is no couering for destruction. (Sheol h7585)
Gĩkuũ nĩkĩguũranie mbere ya Ngai; mwanangĩko ũikarĩte ũtarĩ mũhumbĩre. (Sheol h7585)
7 He stretcheth out the North ouer the emptie place, and hangeth the earth vpon nothing.
Atambũrũkagia matu ma mwena wa gathigathini igũrũ rĩa kũndũ gũtarĩ kĩndũ; nayo thĩ ndarĩ kĩndũ amĩcunjurĩtie nakĩo.
8 He bindeth the waters in his cloudes, and the cloude is not broken vnder them.
Athayaga maaĩ thĩinĩ wa matu make, no matu macio matingĩtembũrwo nĩ ũritũ wamo.
9 He holdeth backe the face of his throne: and spreadeth his cloude vpon it.
Ahumbagĩra ũthiũ wa mweri rĩrĩa waiganana, agatambũrũkia matu make igũrũ rĩaguo.
10 He hath set bounds about the waters, vntil the day and night come to an ende.
Nĩekĩrĩte rũkiriri igũrũ rĩa maaĩ, rũkahakania ũtheri na nduma.
11 The pillars of heauen tremble and quake at his reproofe.
Itugĩ iria itiirĩrĩire igũrũ nĩ ithingithaga, ikagegearaga nĩ ũndũ wa ikũũmana rĩake.
12 The sea is calme by his power, and by his vnderstanding he smiteth the pride thereof.
Nĩoirugire maaĩ ma iria na ũndũ wa hinya wake; na nĩ ũndũ wa ũũgĩ wake nĩatinaangirie Rahabu tũcunjĩ.
13 His Spirite hath garnished the heauens, and his hand hath formed the crooked serpent.
Mĩhũmũ yake nĩyo yathakaririe igũrũ; guoko gwake nĩ gwatheecire nyoka ĩrĩa ĩnyororokaga na ihenya.
14 Loe, these are part of his wayes: but how litle a portion heare we of him? and who can vnderstand his fearefull power?
Atĩrĩrĩ, ĩno no mĩthia ya mawĩra make; kaĩ no kamũheehũ kanini tũiguaga ka ũhoro wake-ĩ! Nũũ ũngĩgĩtaũkĩrwo nĩ marurumĩ ma ũhoti wake?”
