Job 37
1 Yea, at this, my heart quaketh, and starteth up out of its place.
“Esia na nye dzi lã kpo eye wòti kpo le enɔƒe.
2 Hear! oh hear! the raging of his voice, A growling sound also, out of his mouth, goeth forth;
O ɖo to! Ɖo to eƒe gbe ƒe gbeɖeɖe kple bublu si le dodom tso eƒe nu me.
3 Under the whole heavens, he letteth it loose, His lightning also, unto the wings of the earth;
Eɖe asi le eƒe dzokeke ŋu ɖe yame katã eye wòɖoe ɖe anyigba ƒe mlɔenu ke hã
4 After it, roareth a voice, He thundereth with his voice of majesty, Nor will he hold them back, when his voice is heard.
Eƒe gbeɖeɖe kplɔa esia ɖo, ebluna kple eƒe ŋutikɔkɔe ƒe gbe. Ne eƒe gbe ɖi la, meléa naneke ɖi o.
5 GOD thundereth with his voice, wonderfully, Doing great things, which we cannot know;
Mawu ƒe gbe bluna le nukumɔwo dzi, ewɔa nu dzɔtsu siwo kɔ wu míaƒe gɔmesese.
6 For, to the snow, he saith, Fall earthwards, —Also to the downpour of rain, yea the downpour of his mighty rains.
Egblɔna na tsikpe be, ‘Dza ɖe anyigba dzi’ eye na tsi be, ‘Nye tsi gã aɖe nàdza.’
7 On the hand of every man, he setteth a seal, that all men may take note of his doing.
Ale be amegbetɔ siwo katã wòwɔ la nanya eƒe dɔwɔwɔ, eye wòɖoa asi ame sia ame ƒe dɔ dzi.
8 So then the wild-beast hath gone into covert, and, in its lairs, doth it remain.
Gbemelãwo sina bena eye wonɔa woƒe dowo me.
9 Out of a chamber cometh a storm-wind, and, out of the north, cold.
Ahom tsoa eƒe xɔa me vana eye ya sesẽwo hea vuvɔ vɛ.
10 By the breath of GOD, is given—frost, and, the breadth of waters, is congealed;
Mawu ƒe gbɔgbɔ hea fafa gã aɖe vɛ eye tsi gbanawo dzi zua tsikpe.
11 Also, with moisture, burdeneth he the thick cloud, He disperseth his lightning-cloud;
Enyɔa tsi ɖe lilikpowo me, ekakaa eƒe dzikedzo to wo me.
12 Yea, the same, in circles, turneth itself to and fro, by his steering them to their work, whithersoever he commandeth them, over the face of the world, towards the earth.
Le eƒe mɔfiafia nu wotrɔa trɔgodoe le anyigba la katã ŋkume, be woawɔ nu sia nu si ƒe se wòde na wo.
13 Whether, as a rod, or for his earth, or in lovingkindness, he causeth it to come.
Ehea lilikpowo vɛ be woahe to na amewo alo be woade tsi anyigba, ne wòaɖe eƒe lɔlɔ̃ afia ameawo.
14 Give thou ear unto this, O Job, Stay, and consider well the wonders of GOD: —
“Hiob, ɖo to nàse nu sia, zi ɖoɖoe eye nàbu Mawu ƒe nukunuwo ŋu.
15 Canst thou got to know of GOD’S giving charge over them, or of the causing of the lightning of his cloud to shine forth?
Ènya ale si Mawu léa lilikpowo ɖe asii, eye wònana dzi kea dzoa?
16 Canst thou get to know concerning the poisings of the thick cloud, the wonders of one who is perfect in knowledge?
Ènya ale si lilikpowo wɔ hafi le yamea, ènya nukunu siwo nye ame si de blibo le gɔmesese me la tɔa?
17 That thy garments should be hot when he quieteth the earth from the south?
Wò ame si le fifia tem le wò awuwo me, ne dzieheya xɔdzo nya ƒo to anyigba dzi ko,
18 Didst thou spread out, with him, the skies, strong as a molten mirror?
àte ŋu akpe ɖe eŋu le dziŋgɔli ƒe keke ɖe yame me, nu si sesẽ abe ahuhɔ̃e si wowɔ kple akɔbli enea?
19 Let us know what we shall say to him, We cannot set in order, by reason of darkness.
“Gblɔ nu si míagblɔ nɛ la na mí, míate ŋu ahe míaƒe nya ayi egbɔe o elabena míawo míele viviti me.
20 Shall it be declared to him—that I would speak? Were any man to say aught, he might he destroyed?
Wonegblɔ nɛ be medi be maƒo nua? Ɖe ame aɖe abia be wonemi ye agbagbea?
21 Yet, now, men see not the light, bright though it is in the skies, when, a wind, hath passed over, and cleansed them.
Azɔ la, ame aɖeke mate ŋu akpɔ ɣe o elabena ele keklẽm le dziƒo ŋutɔ, esi yaƒoƒo na eƒe mo kɔ nyuie.
22 Out of the north, a golden light cometh, Upon GOD, is fearful splendour:
Edo tso anyiehe kple sikatsyɔ̃ɖoɖo. Mawu ɖiɖi va le ŋɔdzi ƒe ŋutikɔkɔe me.
23 The Almighty, whom we have not fully found out, is great in vigour, —Neither, justice nor abounding righteousness, will he weaken.
Ame aɖeke matu Ŋusẽkatãtɔ la o elabena togbɔ be eƒe ŋusẽ de dzi bobobo, le eƒe afiatsotso kple dzɔdzɔenyenye gã la me hã la, metea ame aɖeke ɖe anyi o.
24 Therefore, do men revere him, He will not regard any who are wise in heart.
Eya ta amewo dea bubu eŋu elabena ɖe medea bubu ame siwo katã ƒe dzi me nunya le la ŋu oa?”
