Job 17
1 My breath is corrupt, my days are extinct, the graves [are ready] for me.
Na karaya, kwanakina sun kusa ƙarewa, kabari yana jirana.
2 [Are there] not mockers with me? and doth not mine eye continue in their provocation?
Ba shakka masu yi mini ba’a suna kewaye da ni; idanuna suna ganin tsokanar da suke yi mini.
3 Lay down now, put me in a surety with thee; who [is] he [that] will strike hands with me?
“Ya Allah, ka ba ni abin da ka yi mini alkawari. Wane ne zai kāre ni?
4 For thou hast hid their heart from understanding: therefore shalt thou not exalt [them].
Ka rufe zuciyarsu yadda ba za su iya ganewa ba, saboda haka ba za ka bari su yi nasara ba.
5 He that speaketh flattery to [his] friends, even the eyes of his children shall fail.
In mutum ya juya wa abokansa baya don a ba shi wata lada’ya’yansa za su makance.
6 He hath made me also a byword of the people; and aforetime I was as a tabret.
“Allah ya sa na zama abin da kowa yake magana a kai wanda kowa yake tofa wa miyau a fuska.
7 Mine eye also is dim by reason of sorrow, and all my members [are] as a shadow.
Idanuna ba sa gani sosai don baƙin ciki; jikina ya zama kamar inuwa kawai
8 Upright [men] shall be astonied at this, and the innocent shall stir up himself against the hypocrite.
Mutanen da suke masu adalci wannan abu ya ba su tsoro; marasa laifi sun tayar wa marasa tsoron Allah.
9 The righteous also shall hold on his way, and he that hath clean hands shall be stronger and stronger.
Duk da haka, masu adalci za su ci gaba da tafiya a kan hanyarsu, waɗanda hannuwansu suke da tsabta kuma za su ƙara ƙarfi.
10 But as for you all, do ye return, and come now: for I cannot find [one] wise [man] among you.
“Amma ku zo dukanku, ku sāke gwadawa! Ba zan sami mutum ɗaya mai hikima ba a cikinku.
11 My days are past, my purposes are broken off, [even] the thoughts of my heart.
Kwanakina sun wuce, shirye-shiryena sun ɓaci haka kuma abubuwan da zuciyata take so.
12 They change the night into day: the light [is] short because of darkness.
Mutanen nan sun juya rana ta zama dare. A tsakiyar duhu suka ce, ‘Haske yana kusa.’
In kabari ne begen da nake da shi kaɗai, in na shimfiɗa gadona a cikin duhu, (Sheol h7585)
14 I have said to corruption, Thou [art] my father: to the worm, [Thou art] my mother, and my sister.
In na ce wa kabari, ‘Kai ne mahaifina,’ tsutsa kuma ke ce, ‘Mahaifiyata’ ko ‘’yar’uwata,’
15 And where [is] now my hope? as for my hope, who shall see it?
To, ina begena yake? Wane ne zai iya ganin wani bege domina?
