Job 26
1 And Job answers and says:
Ipapo Jobho akapindura akati:
2 “How you have helped the powerless, Saved an arm not strong!
“Ndiweka wakabatsira vasina simba! Wakaponesa sei ruoko rwakarukutika!
3 How you have given counsel to the unwise, And made known wise plans in abundance.
Ndiweka wakapa zano kune asina uchenjeri! Ndiweka wakaratidza njere dzakakura kwazvo!
4 With whom have you declared words? And whose breath came forth from you?
Ndianiko akakubatsira kutaura mashoko aya? Uye mweya waaniko wakataura kubva pamuromo wako?
5 The Rephaim are formed, Also their inhabitants beneath the waters.
“Vakafa vari pakushungurudzika kukuru, ivo vari pasi pemvura zhinji navose vanogara mairi.
Sheori yakashama pamberi paMwari; kuparadza hakuna kufukidzwa. (Sheol h7585)
7 Stretching out the north over desolation, Hanging the earth on nothing,
Anotambanudza matenga nechokumusoro panzvimbo isina chinhu; anorembedza nyika pasina chinhu.
8 Binding up the waters in His thick clouds, And the cloud is not burst under them.
Anoputira mvura zhinji mumakore ake; asi makore acho haabvaruki nokuda kwokuremerwa.
9 Taking hold of the face of the throne, Spreading His cloud over it.
Anofukidza chiso chomwedzi uzere, achiwarira makore ake pamusoro pawo.
10 He has placed a limit on the waters, To the boundary of light with darkness.
Anotara muganhu pamberi pemvura zhinji, kuti ugova muganhu pakati pechiedza nerima.
11 Pillars of the heavens tremble, And they wonder because of His rebuke.
Mbiru dzokudenga dzinodengenyeka, dzichivhundutswa nokutuka kwake.
12 By His power He has quieted the sea, And by His understanding struck the proud.
Akaunganidza mvura dzegungwa nesimba rake; akagura-gura Rahabhi nenjere dzake.
13 He beautified the heavens by His Spirit, His hand has formed the fleeing serpent.
Matenga akashongedzwa nokufema kwake; ruoko rwake rwakabaya nyoka inobhururuka.
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?”
Uye izvi ndiwo macheto oga ebasa rake; haiwa tinongonzwa kuzevezera kwake! Zvino ndianiko anganzwisisa kutinhira kwesimba rake?”
