< Job 1 >
1 man to be in/on/with land: country/planet Uz Job name his and to be [the] man [the] he/she/it complete and upright and afraid God and to turn aside: turn aside from bad: evil
Katika nchi ya Usi paliishi mtu ambaye aliitwa Ayubu. Mtu huyu alikuwa hana hatia, naye alikuwa mkamilifu; alimcha Mungu na kuepukana na uovu.
2 and to beget to/for him seven son: child and three daughter
Alikuwa na wana saba na binti watatu,
3 and to be livestock his seven thousand flock and three thousand camel and five hundred pair cattle and five hundred she-ass and service many much and to be [the] man [the] he/she/it great: large from all son: descendant/people front: east
naye alikuwa na kondoo elfu saba, ngamia elfu tatu, jozi mia tano za maksai, na punda mia tano, tena alikuwa na idadi kubwa ya watumishi. Alikuwa mtu mkuu sana miongoni mwa watu wa Mashariki.
4 and to go: went son: child his and to make: do feast house: home man: anyone day his and to send: depart and to call: call to to/for three (sister their *Q(k)*) to/for to eat and to/for to drink with them
Wanawe walikuwa na desturi ya kufanya karamu katika nyumba zao kwa zamu, nao wangewaalika umbu zao watatu ili kula na kunywa pamoja nao.
5 and to be for to surround day [the] feast and to send: depart Job and to consecrate: consecate them and to rise in/on/with morning and to ascend: offer up burnt offering number all their for to say Job perhaps to sin son: child my and to bless God in/on/with heart their thus to make: do Job all [the] day: daily
Wakati kipindi cha karamu kilimalizika, Ayubu angetuma waitwe na kuwafanyia utakaso. Angetoa dhabihu ya sadaka ya kuteketezwa kwa ajili ya kila mmoja wao asubuhi na mapema, akifikiri, “Pengine wanangu wametenda dhambi na kumlaani Mungu mioyoni mwao.” Hii ilikuwa ndiyo desturi ya kawaida ya Ayubu.
6 and to be [the] day and to come (in): come son: child [the] God to/for to stand upon LORD and to come (in): come also [the] Satan in/on/with midst their
Siku moja wana wa Mungu walikwenda kujionyesha mbele za Bwana. Shetani naye akaja pamoja nao.
7 and to say LORD to(wards) [the] Satan from where? to come (in): come and to answer [the] Satan [obj] LORD and to say from to rove in/on/with land: country/planet and from to go: walk in/on/with her
Bwana akamwambia Shetani, “Umetoka wapi?” Shetani akamjibu Bwana, “Natoka kuzunguka pote duniani, nikitembea huku na huko humo.”
8 and to say LORD to(wards) [the] Satan to set: consider heart your upon servant/slave my Job for nothing like him in/on/with land: country/planet man complete and upright afraid God and to turn aside: turn aside from bad: evil
Ndipo Bwana akamwambia Shetani, “Je, umemwangalia huyo mtumishi wangu Ayubu? Hakuna mtu mwingine duniani aliye kama yeye, asiye na hatia, ni mnyofu, mwenye kumcha Mungu, na kuepukana na uovu.”
9 and to answer [the] Satan [obj] LORD and to say for nothing to fear: revere Job God
Shetani akamjibu Bwana, “Je, Ayubu anamcha Mungu bure?
10 not (you(m. s.) *Q(K)*) to hedge about/through/for him and about/through/for house: home his and about/through/for all which to/for him from around: side deed: work hand his to bless and livestock his to break through in/on/with land: country/planet
Je, wewe hukumjengea boma pande zote yeye na wa nyumbani mwake pamoja na kila kitu alicho nacho? Kazi za mikono yake umezibariki na hivyo makundi yake ya kondoo na mbuzi pamoja na ya wanyama yameenea katika nchi nzima.
11 and but to send: reach please hand your and to touch in/on/with all which to/for him if: surely yes not upon face your to bless you
Lakini nyoosha mkono wako na kupiga kila kitu alicho nacho, naye kwa hakika atakulaani mbele za uso wako.”
12 and to say LORD to(wards) [the] Satan behold all which to/for him in/on/with hand your except to(wards) him not to send: reach hand your and to come out: come [the] Satan from from with face LORD
Bwana akamwambia Shetani, “Vema sana, kwa hiyo, kila kitu alicho nacho kiko mikononi mwako, lakini juu ya huyo mtu mwenyewe usimguse hata kwa kidole.” Ndipo Shetani akatoka mbele za Bwana.
13 and to be [the] day and son: child his and daughter his to eat and to drink wine in/on/with house: home brother: male-sibling their [the] firstborn
Siku moja watoto wa Ayubu walipokuwa wakifanya karamu wakila na kunywa divai katika nyumba ya ndugu yao mkubwa,
14 and messenger to come (in): come to(wards) Job and to say [the] cattle to be to plow/plot and [the] she-ass to pasture upon hand: to their
akaja mjumbe kwa Ayubu na kusema, “Maksai walikuwa wakilima na punda walikuwa wakilisha karibu nao,
15 and to fall: fall Sheba and to take: take them and [obj] [the] youth to smite to/for lip: edge sword and to escape [emph?] except I to/for alone me to/for to tell to/for you
Waseba wakawashambulia na kuchukua mifugo. Kisha wakawaua watumishi kwa upanga, nami ndimi peke yangu niliyenusurika kukuletea habari!”
16 still this to speak: speak and this to come (in): come and to say fire God to fall: fall from [the] heaven and to burn: burn in/on/with flock and in/on/with youth and to eat them and to escape [emph?] except I to/for alone me to/for to tell to/for you
Alipokuwa bado ananena, mjumbe mwingine akaja na kusema, “Moto wa Mungu ulishuka kutoka mbinguni na kuteketeza kondoo na watumishi, nami ndimi peke yangu niliyenusurika kukuletea habari!”
17 still this to speak: speak and this to come (in): come and to say Chaldea to set: make three head: group and to strip upon [the] camel and to take: take them and [obj] [the] youth to smite to/for lip: edge sword and to escape [emph?] except I to/for alone me to/for to tell to/for you
Alipokuwa bado ananena, mjumbe mwingine akaja na kusema, “Wakaldayo waliunda vikosi vitatu vya uvamizi na kuwaangukia ngamia wako na kuwachukua wakaondoka nao. Wakawaua watumishi kwa upanga, nami ndimi peke yangu niliyenusurika kukuletea habari.”
18 till this to speak: speak and this to come (in): come and to say son: child your and daughter your to eat and to drink wine in/on/with house: home brother: male-sibling their [the] firstborn
Alipokuwa bado ananena, mjumbe mwingine akaja na kusema, “Wana wako na binti zako walipokuwa wakifanya karamu, wakila na kunywa divai katika nyumba ya ndugu yao mkubwa,
19 and behold spirit: breath great: large to come (in): come from side: beyond [the] wilderness and to touch in/on/with four corner [the] house: home and to fall: fall upon [the] youth and to die and to escape [emph?] except I to/for alone me to/for to tell to/for you
ghafula upepo wenye nguvu ukavuma kutoka jangwani, nao ukaipiga nyumba hiyo pembe zake nne. Ikawaangukia hao watoto nao wamekufa, nami ndimi peke yangu niliyenusurika kukuletea habari!”
20 and to arise: rise Job and to tear [obj] robe his and to shear [obj] head his and to fall: fall land: soil [to] and to bow
Ndipo Ayubu akasimama, akararua joho lake na kunyoa nywele zake. Kisha akaanguka chini katika kuabudu
21 and to say naked (to come out: produce *Q(k)*) from belly: womb mother my and naked to return: return there [to] LORD to give: give and LORD to take: take to be name LORD to bless
na kusema: “Nilitoka tumboni mwa mama yangu uchi, nami nitaondoka uchi, Bwana alinipa, naye Bwana ameviondoa, jina la Bwana litukuzwe.”
22 in/on/with all this not to sin Job and not to give: give folly to/for God
Katika mambo haya yote, Ayubu hakutenda dhambi kwa kumlaumu Mungu kwa kufanya ubaya.
