Job 26
1 Then responded Job, and said: —
Na Hiob kasaa bio se,
2 How hast thou given help to one of no-strength? given victory to an arm of no-power?
“Woaboa nea onni tumi! Woagye basa a enni ahoɔden!
3 How hast thou given counsel to one of no-wisdom? or, effective wisdom, abundantly made known?
Woatu nea onnim nyansa fo! Na woada nhumu pa ara adi!
4 Whom hast thou taught speech? Whose inspiration hath come from thee?
Hena na ɔboaa wo ma wokaa saa nsɛm yi? Hena honhom na ɛkasa faa wo mu?
5 The shades, tremble, beneath the waters and their inhabitants;
“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 Who stretcheth out the north over emptiness, hangeth the earth upon nothingness;
Ɔtrɛw wim atifi fam kata nea ɛda mpan so; na ɔde asase sensɛn ohunu so.
8 Who bindeth up the waters in his thick clouds, and the cloud is not rent beneath them;
Ɔbɔ nsu boa hyɛ ne omununkum mu, nanso nsu no mu duru ntumi mpae no.
9 Who shutteth-in the face of the throne, he spreadeth over it his cloud;
Ɔtrɛw ne omununkum mu de kata ɔsram ani.
10 A, boundary, hath he encircled on the face of the waters, as far as where light ends in darkness;
Ɔhyɛ agyirae wɔ nsu so de to ɔhye wɔ hann ne sum ntam.
11 The pillars of the heavens, are shaken, and are terrified at his rebuke:
Ɔsoro nnyinaso wosow, na nʼanimka ma wɔn ho dwiriw wɔn.
12 By his strength, hath he excited the sea, and, by his skill, hath he shattered the Crocodile:
Ɔde ne tumi wosow po ne nyansa mu, otwitwaa Rahab mu asinasin.
13 By his spirit, hath he arched the heavens, His hand hath pierced the fleeing serpent.
Ɔde ne home maa wim tewee; na ne nsa wɔɔ ɔwɔ a ɔrewea.
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?
Eyinom yɛ ne nnwuma kakraa bi; ne tumi kakraa bi kɛkɛ! Na hena na obetumi ate ne tumi mmubomu no ase?”
