< Job 37 >

1 At this also mine heart is astonied, and is mooued out of his place.
“Kino kikankanya omutima gwange, ne gubuuka okuva mu kifo kyagwo.
2 Heare the sound of his voyce, and the noyse that goeth out of his mouth.
Wuliriza okubwatuka kw’eddoboozi lye, n’okuwuluguma okuva mu kamwa ke.
3 He directeth it vnder the whole heauen, and his light vnto the endes of the world.
Asumulula eggulu ne limyansa wansi w’eggulu wonna, n’aliragira ligende ku nkomerero y’ensi.
4 After it a noyse soundeth: hee thundereth with the voyce of his maiestie, and hee will not stay them when his voyce is heard.
Kino oluggwa, okuwuluguma kw’eddoboozi lye kwe kuddako, abwatuka n’eddoboozi lye ery’omwanguka, era eddoboozi lye bwe liwulirwa, tewabaawo kisigala nga bwe kibadde.
5 God thundereth marueilously with his voyce: he worketh great things, which we know not.
Eddoboozi lya Katonda libwatuka mu ngeri ey’ekitalo; akola ebintu ebikulu ebisukka okutegeera kwaffe.
6 For he sayth to the snowe, Be thou vpon the earth: likewise to the small rayne and to the great rayne of his power.
Agamba omuzira nti, ‘Ggwa ku nsi,’ ate eri enkuba etonnya nti, ‘Ttonnya nnyo.’
7 With the force thereof he shutteth vp euery man, that all men may knowe his worke.
Emirimu gya buli muntu giyimirira, buli omu n’alyoka amanya amaanyi ga Katonda.
8 Then the beastes go into the denne, and remaine in their places.
Ensolo ne ziryoka zessogga empuku zaazo, ne zigenda zeekukuma.
9 The whirlewind commeth out of the South, and the colde from the North winde.
Omuyaga ne gulyoka guva mu nnyumba yaagwo, n’obunnyogovu ne buva mu mpewo ekuŋŋunta.
10 At the breath of God the frost is giuen, and the breadth of the waters is made narrowe.
Omuzira ne guva mu mukka gwa Katonda n’amazzi amangi ne gekwata kitole.
11 He maketh also the cloudes to labour, to water the earth, and scattereth the cloude of his light.
Ebire abijjuza amatondo g’amazzi, n’asaasaanya okumyansa kw’eggulu.
12 And it is turned about by his gouernment, that they may doe whatsoeuer he commandeth them vpon the whole worlde:
Byetooloolatooloola nga y’abiragira, ne bituukiriza byonna by’abiragira, ku nsi yonna okubeera abantu.
13 Whether it be for punishment, or for his lande, or of mercie, he causeth it to come.
Bwe kuba kubonereza, oba okufukirira ensi oba okulaga okwagala kwe, atonnyesa enkuba.
14 Hearken vnto this, O Iob: stand and consider the wonderous workes of God.
“Wuliriza kino Yobu; sooka oyimirire olowooze ku bikolwa bya Katonda eby’ettendo.
15 Diddest thou knowe when God disposed them? and caused the light of his cloud to shine?
Omanyi Katonda engeri gy’alagiramu ebire, n’aleetera eggulu okumyansa?
16 Hast thou knowen the varietie of the cloude, and the wonderous workes of him, that is perfite in knowledge?
Omanyi engeri ebire gye bituulamu mu bbanga, amakula g’emirimu gy’oyo eyatuukirira mu kumanya?
17 Or howe thy clothes are warme, when he maketh the earth quiet through the South winde?
Ggwe alina ebyambalo ebibuguma, ensi bw’eba ng’ekkakkanyizibbwa embuyaga ez’obukiikaddyo,
18 Hast thou stretched out the heaues, which are strong, and as a molten glasse?
oyinza okumwegattako ne mubamba eggulu, eryaguma ne libeera ng’endabirwamu ensanuuse?
19 Tell vs what we shall say vnto him: for we can not dispose our matter because of darknes.
“Tubuulire kye tunaamugamba; tetusobola kuwoza nsonga zaffe gy’ali olw’ekizikiza kye tulimu.
20 Shall it be told him when I speake? or shall man speake when he shalbe destroyed?
Asaanidde okubuulirwa kye njagala okwogera? Eriyo omuntu yenna ayinza okusaba okumalibwawo?
21 And nowe men see not the light, which shineth in the cloudes, but the winde passeth and clenseth them.
Kaakano tewali n’omu ayinza kutunula mu njuba, olw’engeri gy’eyakamu ku ggulu, ng’empewo emaze okuyita, n’eyelula ebire.
22 The brightnesse commeth out of the North: the praise thereof is to God, which is terrible.
Mu bukiikakkono evaayo zaabu; Katonda ajja mu kitiibwa eky’amaanyi.
23 It is the Almightie: we can not finde him out: he is excellent in power and iudgement, and aboundant in iustice: he afflicteth not.
Ayinzabyonna tatuukikako era agulumidde mu maanyi, mu bwenkanya bwe era ne butuukirivu bwe, tawaliriza muntu yenna.
24 Let men therefore feare him: for he will not regarde any that are wise in their owne conceit.
Noolwekyo abantu bamutya, takitwala ng’ekikulu olw’abo abeerowooza okuba abagezi mu mitima gyabwe.”
