Job 26
1 Then Job answered and said:
Ṣùgbọ́n Jobu sì dáhùn wí pé,
2 How hast thou helped him that is without power! How hast thou saved the arm that hath no strength!
“Báwo ni ìwọ ń ṣe ìrànlọ́wọ́ ẹni tí kò ní ipá, báwo ní ìwọ ń ṣe gbe apá ẹni tí kò ní agbára?
3 How hast thou counselled him that hath no wisdom, and plentifully declared sound knowledge!
Báwo ni ìwọ ń ṣe ìgbìmọ̀ fun ẹni tí kò ní ọgbọ́n, tàbí báwo òye rẹ to pọ to bẹ́ẹ̀?
4 With whose help hast thou uttered words? And whose spirit came forth from thee?
Ta ni ó ràn ọ́ lọ́wọ́ láti sọ àwọn ọ̀rọ̀ wọ̀nyí, àti ẹ̀mí ta ni ó gba ẹnu rẹ sọ̀rọ̀?”
5 The shades tremble beneath the waters and the inhabitants thereof.
“Àwọn aláìlágbára ti isà òkú wárìrì, lábẹ́ omi pẹ̀lú àwọn tí ń gbé inú rẹ̀.
Ìhòhò ni ipò òkú níwájú Ọlọ́run, ibi ìparun kò sí ní ibojì. (Sheol h7585)
7 He stretcheth out the north over the empty space, and hangeth the earth over nothing.
Òun ní o nà ìhà àríwá ọ̀run ní ibi òfúrufú, ó sì so ayé rọ̀ ní ojú asán.
8 He bindeth up the waters in His thick clouds; and the cloud is not rent under them.
Ó di omi pọ̀ nínú ìkùùkuu àwọsánmọ̀ rẹ̀ tí ó nípọn; àwọsánmọ̀ kò sì ya nísàlẹ̀ wọn.
9 He closeth in the face of His throne, and spreadeth His cloud upon it.
Ó sì fa ojú ìtẹ́ rẹ̀ sẹ́yìn, ó sì tẹ àwọsánmọ̀ rẹ̀ sí i lórí.
10 He hath described a boundary upon the face of the waters, unto the confines of light and darkness.
Ó fi ìdè yí omi òkun ká, títí dé ààlà ìmọ́lẹ̀ àti òkùnkùn.
11 The pillars of heaven tremble and are astonished at His rebuke.
Ọ̀wọ́n òpó ọ̀run wárìrì, ẹnu sì yà wọ́n sì ìbáwí rẹ̀.
12 He stirreth up the sea with His power, and by His understanding He smiteth through Rahab.
Ó fi ipá rẹ̀ dààmú omi Òkun; nípa òye rẹ̀, ó gé agbéraga sí wẹ́wẹ́.
13 By His breath the heavens are serene; His hand hath pierced the slant serpent.
Nípa ẹ̀mí rẹ̀ ni ó ti ṣe ọ̀run ní ọ̀ṣọ́; ọwọ́ rẹ̀ ni ó fi dá ejò wíwọ́ nì.
14 Lo, these are but the outskirts of His ways; and how small a whisper is heard of Him! But the thunder of His mighty deeds who can understand?
Kíyèsi i, èyí ní òpin ọ̀nà rẹ̀; ohùn èyí tí a gbọ́ ti kéré tó! Ta ni ẹni náà tí òye àrá agbára rẹ̀ lè yé?”
