< Job 26 >
1 And Job answers and says:
Awo Yobu n’addamu nti,
2 “How you have helped the powerless, Saved an arm not strong!
“Ng’oyambye oyo atalina maanyi! Ng’oyambye omukono ogwo ogutalina maanyi!
3 How you have given counsel to the unwise, And made known wise plans in abundance.
Ng’amagezi ga kitalo ago g’owadde oyo atalina magezi! Ng’owadde okuluŋŋamizibwa okuyitirivu!
4 With whom have you declared words? And whose breath came forth from you?
Ani akuyambye okwogera ebigambo ebyo? Era mwoyo ki ogwogeredde mu kamwa ko?
5 The Rephaim are formed, Also their inhabitants beneath the waters.
“Abafu kye balimu tekigumiikirizika, n’abo abali wansi w’amazzi ne bonna abagabeeramu.
6 Sheol [is] naked before Him, And there is no covering to destruction. (Sheol )
Amagombe gali bwereere mu maaso ga Katonda; n’okuzikiriza tekulina kikubisse. (Sheol )
7 Stretching out the north over desolation, Hanging the earth on nothing,
Ayanjuluza eggulu ery’obukiikakkono mu bbanga ejjereere, awanika ensi awatali kigiwanirira.
8 Binding up the waters in His thick clouds, And the cloud is not burst under them.
Asiba amazzi mu bire bye; ate ebire tebyabika olw’okuzitoowererwa.
9 Taking hold of the face of the throne, Spreading His cloud over it.
Abikka obwenyi bw’omwezi, agwanjululizaako ebire bye.
10 He has placed a limit on the waters, To the boundary of light with darkness.
Ateekawo ekipimo ekiraga waggulu amazzi g’ennyanja we gayita, ng’ensalo eyawula ekitangaala n’ekizikiza.
11 Pillars of the heavens tremble, And they wonder because of His rebuke.
Empagi z’eggulu zikankana, zeewuunya olw’okunenya kwe.
12 By His power He has quieted the sea, And by His understanding struck the proud.
Afuukuula ennyanja n’obuyinza bwe, n’asalaasala Lakabu mu bitundutundu n’amagezi ge.
13 He beautified the heavens by His Spirit, His hand has formed the fleeing serpent.
Yafuuwa omukka ogwatereeza eggulu, omukono gwe gwafumita omusota oguwulukuka.
14 Behold, these [are] the borders of His way, and how little a matter is heard of Him, and who understands the thunder of His might?”
Naye nga bino katundu butundu ku bye yakola. Nga kye tumuwulirako katundu butundu ku ekyo ky’ali! Ani ayinza okutegeera okubwatuka kw’obuyinza bwe?”
