Job 26
1 But Job answered and said,
Na Hiob kasaa bio se,
2 How have you helped him that is without power? how save you the arm that has no strength?
“Woaboa nea onni tumi! Woagye basa a enni ahoɔden!
3 How have you counselled him that has no wisdom? and how have you plentifully declared the thing as it is?
Woatu nea onnim nyansa fo! Na woada nhumu pa ara adi!
4 To whom have you uttered words? and whose spirit came from you?
Hena na ɔboaa wo ma wokaa saa nsɛm yi? Hena honhom na ɛkasa faa wo mu?
5 Dead things are formed from under the waters, and the inhabitants thereof.
“Awufo wɔ ahoyeraw kɛse mu, wɔn a wɔwɔ nsu ase ne nea ɛte mu nyinaa.
Asaman da adagyaw Onyankopɔn anim; Ɔsɛe nso nni nkataso. (Sheol h7585)
7 He stretches out the north over the empty place, and hangs the earth upon nothing.
Ɔtrɛw wim atifi fam kata nea ɛda mpan so; na ɔde asase sensɛn ohunu so.
8 He binds up the waters in his thick clouds; and the cloud is not rent under them.
Ɔbɔ nsu boa hyɛ ne omununkum mu, nanso nsu no mu duru ntumi mpae no.
9 He holds back the face of his throne, and spreads his cloud upon it.
Ɔtrɛw ne omununkum mu de kata ɔsram ani.
10 He has compassed the waters with bounds, until the day and night come to an end.
Ɔhyɛ agyirae wɔ nsu so de to ɔhye wɔ hann ne sum ntam.
11 The pillars of heaven tremble and are astonished at his reproof.
Ɔsoro nnyinaso wosow, na nʼanimka ma wɔn ho dwiriw wɔn.
12 He divides the sea with his power, and by his understanding he strikes through the proud.
Ɔde ne tumi wosow po ne nyansa mu, otwitwaa Rahab mu asinasin.
13 By his spirit he has garnished the heavens; his hand has formed the crooked serpent.
Ɔde ne home maa wim tewee; na ne nsa wɔɔ ɔwɔ a ɔrewea.
14 Lo, these are parts of his ways: but how little a portion is heard of him? but the thunder of his power who can understand?
Eyinom yɛ ne nnwuma kakraa bi; ne tumi kakraa bi kɛkɛ! Na hena na obetumi ate ne tumi mmubomu no ase?”
