Job 5
1 Call nowe, if any will answere thee, and to which of the Saintes wilt thou turne?
“Ó jẹ́ pé nísinsin yìí bí ẹnìkan bá wà tí yóò dá wa lóhùn? Tàbí ta ni nínú àwọn ènìyàn mímọ́ tí ìwọ ó yípadà sí?
2 Doubtlesse anger killeth the foolish, and enuie slayeth the idiote.
Nítorí pé ìbínú pa aláìmòye, ìrunú a sì pa òpè ènìyàn.
3 I haue seene the foolish well rooted, and suddenly I cursed his habitation, saying,
Èmi ti rí aláìmòye ti ó ta gbọ̀nọ́ngbọ̀nọ́n lulẹ̀, ṣùgbọ́n lójúkan náà mo fi ibùjókòó rẹ̀ bú.
4 His children shalbe farre from saluation, and they shall be destroyed in the gate, and none shall deliuer them.
Àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ kò jìnnà sí ewu, a sì tẹ̀ wọ́n mọ́lẹ̀ lójú ibodè, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kò sí aláàbò kan.
5 The hungrie shall eate vp his haruest: yea, they shall take it from among the thornes, and the thirstie shall drinke vp their substance.
Ìkórè oko ẹni tí àwọn tí ebi ń pa sọ̀ di jíjẹ, tí wọ́n sì wọ inú ẹ̀gún lọ kó, àwọn ìgárá ọlọ́ṣà sì gbé ohun ìní wọn mì.
6 For miserie commeth not foorth of the dust, neither doeth affliction spring out of the earth.
Bí ìpọ́njú kò bá ti inú erùpẹ̀ jáde wá ni, tí ìyọnu kò ti ilẹ̀ jáde wá.
7 But man is borne vnto trauaile, as the sparkes flie vpwarde.
Ṣùgbọ́n a bí ènìyàn sínú wàhálà, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìpẹ́pẹ́ iná ti máa ń ta sókè.
8 But I would inquire at God, and turne my talke vnto God:
“Ṣùgbọ́n bí ó ṣe tèmi, ọ̀dọ̀ Ọlọ́run ní èmi yóò ti ṣìpẹ̀, ní ọwọ́ Ọlọ́run ní èmi yóò máa fi ọ̀rọ̀ mi lé.
9 Which doeth great things and vnsearchable, and marueilous things without nomber.
Ẹni tí ó ṣe ohun tí ó tóbi tí a kò lè ṣe àwárí, ohun ìyanu láìní iye.
10 He giueth raine vpon the earth, and powreth water vpon the streetes,
Tí ń rọ̀jò sí orí ilẹ̀ ayé tí ó sì ń rán omi sínú ilẹ̀kílẹ̀.
11 And setteth vp on hie them that be lowe, that the sorowfull may be exalted to saluation.
Láti gbé àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè lékè kí á lè gbé àwọn ẹni ìbànújẹ́ ga sí ibi aláìléwu.
12 He scattereth the deuices of the craftie: so that their handes can not accomplish that which they doe enterprise.
Ó yí ìmọ̀ àwọn alárékérekè po, bẹ́ẹ̀ ní ọwọ́ wọn kò lè mú ìdáwọ́lé wọn ṣẹ.
13 He taketh the wise in their craftinesse, and the counsel of the wicked is made foolish.
Ó mú àwọn ọlọ́gbọ́n nínú àrékérekè ara wọn, àti ìmọ̀ àwọn òǹrorò ní ó tì ṣubú ní ògèdèǹgbé.
14 They meete with darkenesse in the day time, and grope at noone day, as in the night.
Wọ́n sáré wọ inú òkùnkùn ní ọ̀sán; wọ́n sì fọwọ́ tálẹ̀ ní ọ̀sán gangan bí ẹni pé ní òru ni.
15 But he saueth the poore from the sword, from their mouth, and from the hande of the violent man,
Ṣùgbọ́n ó gba tálákà là ní ọwọ́ idà, lọ́wọ́ ẹnu wọn àti lọ́wọ́ àwọn alágbára.
16 So that the poore hath his hope, but iniquitie shall stop her mouth.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ìrètí wà fún tálákà, àìṣòótọ́ sì pa ẹnu rẹ̀ mọ́.
17 Beholde, blessed is the man whome God correcteth: therefore refuse not thou the chastising of the Almightie.
“Kíyèsi i, ìbùkún ni fún ẹni tí Ọlọ́run bá wí, nítorí náà, má ṣe gan ìbáwí Olódùmarè.
18 For he maketh the wound, and bindeth it vp: he smiteth, and his handes make whole.
Nítorí pé òun a máa pa ni lára, síbẹ̀ òun a sì tún dì í ní ìdì ìtura, ó sá lọ́gbẹ́, a sì fi ọwọ́ rẹ̀ di ojú ọgbẹ̀ náà jiná.
19 He shall deliuer thee in sixe troubles, and in the seuenth the euill shall not touch thee.
Yóò gbà ọ́ nínú ìpọ́njú mẹ́fà, àní nínú méje, ibi kan kì yóò bá ọ.
20 In famine he shall deliuer thee from death: and in battel from the power of the sworde.
Nínú ìyanu yóò gbà ọ́ lọ́wọ́ ikú àti nínú ogun, yóò gbà ọ́ lọ́wọ́ idà.
21 Thou shalt be hid from the scourge of the tongue, and thou shalt not be afraid of destruction when it commeth.
A ó pa ọ́ mọ́ kúrò lọ́wọ́ iná ahọ́n, bẹ́ẹ̀ ní ìwọ kì yóò bẹ̀rù ìparun tí ó bá dé.
22 But thou shalt laugh at destruction and dearth, and shalt not be afraide of the beast of the earth.
Ìwọ yóò rẹ́rìn-ín nínú ìparun àti ìyàn, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ìwọ kì yóò bẹ̀rù ẹranko ilẹ̀ ayé.
23 For the stones of the fielde shall be in league with thee, and the beastes of the field shall be at peace with thee.
Nítorí pé ìwọ ti bá òkúta igbó mulẹ̀, àwọn ẹranko igbó yóò wà pẹ̀lú rẹ ní àlàáfíà.
24 And thou shalt knowe, that peace shall be in thy tabernacle, and thou shalt visite thine habitation, and shalt not sinne.
Ìwọ ó sì mọ̀ pé àlàáfíà ni ibùjókòó rẹ wà, ìwọ yóò sì máa ṣe ìbẹ̀wò ibùjókòó rẹ, ìwọ kì yóò ṣìnà.
25 Thou shalt perceiue also, that thy seede shalbe great, and thy posteritie as the grasse of the earth.
Ìwọ ó sì mọ̀ pẹ̀lú pé irú-ọmọ rẹ ó sì pọ̀ àti àwọn ọmọ ọmọ rẹ yóò rí bí koríko igbó.
26 Thou shalt goe to thy graue in a ful age, as a ricke of corne commeth in due season into the barne.
Ìwọ yóò wọ isà òkú rẹ ní ògbólógbòó ọjọ́, bí síírí ọkà tí ó gbó tí á sì kó ní ìgbà ìkórè rẹ̀.
27 Lo, thus haue we inquired of it, and so it is: heare this and knowe it for thy selfe.
“Kíyèsi i, àwa ti wádìí rẹ̀ bẹ́ẹ̀ ní ó rí! Gbà á gbọ́, kí o sì mọ̀ pé fún ìre ara rẹ ni.”
