< Job 26 >

1 Then responded Job, and said: —
Mgbe ahụ, Job zaghachiri:
2 How hast thou given help to one of no-strength? given victory to an arm of no-power?
“Lee ka i si nyere onye na-adịghị ike aka! Leekwa ka i si zọpụta ogwe aka nke onye ume na-adịghị!
3 How hast thou given counsel to one of no-wisdom? or, effective wisdom, abundantly made known?
Lee ụdị ndụmọdụ i nyerela onye na-enweghị amamihe! Leekwa ụdị oke nghọta nke ị gosipụtara.
4 Whom hast thou taught speech? Whose inspiration hath come from thee?
Ọ bụ onye nyeere gị aka ikwu okwu ndị a? Mmụọ onye si nʼọnụ gị kwuo okwu?
5 The shades, tremble, beneath the waters and their inhabitants;
“Ndị nwụrụ anwụ nọ nʼoke ihe mgbu, ha na ndị nọ nʼokpuru mmiri na ndị bi nʼime ya.
6 Naked is hades before him, and there is no covering to destruction; (Sheol h7585)
Ala mmụọ gba ọtọ nʼihu Chineke; mbibi tọgbọkwara na-enweghị ihe kpuchiri ya. (Sheol h7585)
7 Who stretcheth out the north over emptiness, hangeth the earth upon nothingness;
Ọ na-agbasapụ elu elu nke mbara eluigwe nʼelu ebe tọgbọrọ nʼefu. O nweghị ihe o kokwasịrị ụwa nʼelu ya.
8 Who bindeth up the waters in his thick clouds, and the cloud is not rent beneath them;
Ọ na-ekechi mmiri nʼime igwe ojii, ma ịdị arọ ya adịghị eme ka igwe ojii gbawaa.
9 Who shutteth-in the face of the throne, he spreadeth over it his cloud;
Ọ na-ekpuchi ihu ọnwa nke dị nʼuju ya, na-agbasakwa igwe ojii ya nʼelu ya,
10 A, boundary, hath he encircled on the face of the waters, as far as where light ends in darkness;
O kewapụtara oke nʼelu ogbu mmiri, ka ọ bụrụ oke dị nʼetiti ìhè na ọchịchịrị.
11 The pillars of the heavens, are shaken, and are terrified at his rebuke:
Ogidi niile nke eluigwe na-ama jijiji, tụọkwa oke egwu nʼihi ịba mba ya.
12 By his strength, hath he excited the sea, and, by his skill, hath he shattered the Crocodile:
Nʼike ya ka o ji kpalie oke osimiri; ọ bụ amamihe ya ka o ji tigbuo Rehab.
13 By his spirit, hath he arched the heavens, His hand hath pierced the fleeing serpent.
Ọ bụ site na nkuume ya ka mbara eluigwe ji maa mma; aka ya dupuru agwọ na-agba ọsọ.
14 Lo! these, are the fringes of his way, and what a whisper of a word hath been heard of him! But, the thunder of his might, who could understand?
Ihe ndị a bụ ọnụ ọnụ ọrụ aka ya; lee ka o si dị nta bụ okwu ntakwu anyị na-anụ gbasara ya! Onye pụrụ ịghọtacha ịda ụda nke ike ya?”
