Job 33
1 Wherefore, Iob, I pray thee, heare my talke and hearken vnto all my wordes.
“Ǹjẹ́ nítorí náà, Jobu, èmí bẹ̀ ọ, gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ mi kí o sì fetísí ọ̀rọ̀ mi!
2 Beholde now, I haue opened my mouth: my tongue hath spoken in my mouth.
Kíyèsi i nísinsin yìí, èmí ya ẹnu mi, ahọ́n mi sì sọ̀rọ̀ ní ẹnu mi.
3 My words are in the vprightnesse of mine heart, and my lippes shall speake pure knowledge.
Ọ̀rọ̀ mi yóò sì jásí ìdúró ṣinṣin ọkàn mi, ètè mi yóò sì sọ ìmọ̀ mi jáde dájúdájú.
4 The Spirite of God hath made me, and the breath of the Almightie hath giuen me life.
Ẹ̀mí Ọlọ́run ni ó tí dá mi, àti ìmísí Olódùmarè ni ó ti fún mi ní ìyè.
5 If thou canst giue me answere, prepare thy selfe and stand before me.
Bí ìwọ bá le dá mi lóhùn, tò ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ̀ lẹ́sẹẹsẹ níwájú mi;
6 Beholde, I am according to thy wish in Gods stead: I am also formed of the clay.
kíyèsi i, bí ìwọ ṣe jẹ́ ti Ọlọ́run, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni èmi náà; láti amọ̀ wá ni a sì ti dá mi pẹ̀lú.
7 Beholde, my terrour shall not feare thee, neither shall mine hand be heauie vpon thee.
Kíyèsi i, ẹ̀rù ńlá mi kì yóò bà ọ; bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ọwọ́ mi kì yóò wúwo sí ọ lára.
8 Doubtles thou hast spoken in mine eares, and I haue heard the voyce of thy wordes.
“Nítòótọ́ ìwọ sọ ní etí mi, èmí sì gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ̀ wí pé,
9 I am cleane, without sinne: I am innocent, and there is none iniquitie in me.
‘Èmi mọ́, láìní ìrékọjá, aláìṣẹ̀ ní èmi; bẹ́ẹ̀ àìṣedéédéé kò sí ní ọwọ́ mi.
10 Lo, he hath found occasions against me, and counted me for his enemie.
Kíyèsi i, Ọlọ́run ti rí àìṣedéédéé pẹ̀lú mi; ó kà mí sì ọ̀tá rẹ̀.
11 He hath put my feete in the stockes, and looketh narrowly vnto all my paths.
Ó kan ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ mi sínú àbà; o kíyèsi ipa ọ̀nà mi gbogbo.’
12 Behold, in this hast thou not done right: I will answere thee, that God is greater then man.
“Kíyèsi i, nínú èyí ìwọ ṣìnà! Èmi ó dá ọ lóhùn pé, Ọlọ́run tóbi jù ènìyàn lọ!
13 Why doest thou striue against him? for he doeth not giue account of all his matters.
Nítorí kí ni ìwọ ṣe ń bá a jà, wí pé, òun kò ní sọ ọ̀rọ̀ kan nítorí iṣẹ́ rẹ̀?
14 For God speaketh once or twise, and one seeth it not.
Nítorí pe Ọlọ́run sọ̀rọ̀ lẹ́ẹ̀kan, àní, lẹ́ẹ̀kejì, ṣùgbọ́n ènìyàn kò róye rẹ̀.
15 In dreames and visions of the night, when sleepe falleth vpon men, and they sleepe vpon their beds,
Nínú àlá, ní ojúran òru, nígbà tí orun èjìká bá kùn ènìyàn lọ, ní sísùn lórí ibùsùn,
16 Then he openeth the eares of men, euen by their corrections, which he had sealed,
nígbà náà ni ó lè sọ̀rọ̀ ní etí wọn, yóò sì dẹ́rùbà wọ́n pẹ̀lú ìbáwí,
17 That he might cause man to turne away from his enterprise, and that he might hide the pride of man,
kí ó lè fa ènìyàn sẹ́yìn kúrò nínú ètè rẹ̀; kí ó sì pa ìgbéraga mọ́ kúrò lọ́dọ̀ ènìyàn;
18 And keepe backe his soule from the pit, and that his life should not passe by the sword.
Ó sì fa ọkàn rẹ̀ padà kúrò nínú isà òkú, àti ẹ̀mí rẹ̀ láti ṣègbé lọ́wọ́ idà.
19 He is also striken with sorow vpon his bed, and the griefe of his bones is sore,
“A sì nà án lórí ibùsùn ìrora rẹ̀; pẹ̀lúpẹ̀lú a fi ìjà egungun rẹ̀ ti ó dúró pẹ́ nà án,
20 So that his life causeth him to abhorre bread, and his soule daintie meate.
bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ẹ̀mí rẹ kọ oúnjẹ, ọkàn rẹ̀ sì kọ oúnjẹ dídùn.
21 His flesh faileth that it can not be seene, and his bones which were not seene, clatter.
Ẹran-ara rẹ̀ run, títí a kò sì fi lè rí i mọ́ egungun rẹ̀ tí a kò tí rí sì ta jáde.
22 So his soule draweth to the graue, and his life to the buriers.
Àní, ọkàn rẹ̀ sì súnmọ́ isà òkú, ẹ̀mí rẹ̀ sì súnmọ́ ọ̀dọ̀ àwọn ìránṣẹ́ ikú.
23 If there be a messenger with him, or an interpreter, one of a thousand to declare vnto man his righteousnesse,
Bí angẹli kan ba wà lọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀, ẹni tí ń ṣe alágbàwí, ọ̀kan nínú ẹgbẹ̀rún láti fi ọ̀nà pípé hàn ni,
24 Then will he haue mercie vpon him, and will say, Deliuer him, that he go not downe into the pit: for I haue receiued a reconciliation.
nígbà náà ni ó ṣe oore-ọ̀fẹ́ fún un ó sì wí pé, gbà á kúrò nínú lílọ sínú isà òkú; èmi ti rà á padà.
25 Then shall his flesh be as fresh as a childes, and shall returne as in the dayes of his youth.
Ara rẹ̀ yóò sì di ọ̀tun bí i ti ọmọ kékeré, yóò sì tún padà sí ọjọ́ ìgbà èwe rẹ̀;
26 He shall pray vnto God, and he will be fauourable vnto him, and he shall see his face with ioy: for he will render vnto man his righteousnes.
Ó gbàdúrà sọ́dọ̀ Ọlọ́run, òun sì ṣe ojúrere rẹ̀, o sì rí ojú rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú ayọ̀, òhun o san òdodo rẹ̀ padà fún ènìyàn.
27 He looketh vpon men, and if one say, I haue sinned, and peruerted righteousnesse, and it did not profite me,
Ó wá sọ́dọ̀ ènìyàn ó sì wí pé, ‘Èmi ṣẹ̀, kò sì ṣí èyí tí o tọ́, mo sì ti yí èyí tí ó tọ́ po, a kò sì san ẹ̀san rẹ̀ fún mi;
28 He will deliuer his soule from going into the pit, and his life shall see the light.
Ọlọ́run ti gba ọkàn mi kúrò nínú lílọ sínú ihò, ẹ̀mí mi yóò wà láti jẹ adùn ìmọ́lẹ̀ ayé.’
29 Lo, all these things will God worke twise or thrise with a man,
“Wò ó! Nǹkan wọ̀nyí ni Ọlọ́run máa ń ṣe fún ènìyàn nígbà méjì àti nígbà mẹ́ta,
30 That he may turne backe his soule from the pit, to be illuminate in the light of the liuing.
láti mú ọkàn rẹ padà kúrò nínú isà òkú, láti fi ìmọ́lẹ̀ alààyè han sí i.
31 Marke well, O Iob, and heare me: keepe silence, and I will speake.
“Jobu, kíyèsi i gidigidi, kí o sì fetí sí mi; pa ẹnu rẹ mọ́, èmi ó sì máa sọ ọ́.
32 If there be matter, answere me, and speak: for I desire to iustifie thee.
Bí ìwọ bá sì ní ohun wí, dá mi lóhùn; máa sọ, nítorí pé èmi fẹ́ dá ọ láre.
33 If thou hast not, heare me: holde thy tongue, and I will teach thee wisedome.
Bí bẹ́ẹ̀ kọ́, gbọ́ tèmi; pa ẹnu rẹ mọ́, èmi ó sì kọ́ ọ ní ọgbọ́n.”
