Job 37
1 Indeed, my heart trembles at this; it is moved out of its place.
“Àyà sì fò mi sí èyí pẹ̀lú, ó sì kúrò ní ipò rẹ̀.
2 Hear, oh, hear the noise of his voice, the sound that goes out from his mouth.
Fetísílẹ̀! Fetísílẹ̀, kí ẹ sì gbọ́ ìró ohùn rẹ̀, àti èyí tí ó ti ẹnu rẹ̀ jáde wá.
3 He sends it out under the whole sky, and he sends out his lightning to the edges of the earth.
Ó ṣe ìlànà rẹ̀ ní ìsàlẹ̀ ọ̀run gbogbo, mọ̀nàmọ́ná rẹ̀ ni ó sì jọ̀wọ́ rẹ̀ lọ́wọ́ dé òpin ilẹ̀ ayé.
4 A voice roars after it; he thunders with the voice of his majesty; he does not restrain the lightning bolts when his voice is heard.
Lẹ́yìn mọ̀nàmọ́ná ohùn kan fọ̀ ramúramù; ó sì fi ohùn ọláńlá rẹ̀ sán àrá. Òhun kì yóò sì dá àrá dúró, nígbà tí ó bá ń gbọ́ ohùn rẹ̀.
5 God thunders marvelously with his voice; he does great things that we cannot comprehend.
Ọlọ́run fi ohùn rẹ̀ sán àrá ní ọ̀nà ìyanu; ohùn ńlá ńlá ni í ṣe tí àwa kò le mọ̀.
6 For he says to the snow, 'Fall on the earth'; likewise to the rain shower, 'Become a great shower of rain.'
Nítorí tí ó wí fún yìnyín pé, ‘Ìwọ rọ̀ sílẹ̀ ayé,’ àti pẹ̀lú fún ọwọ́ òjò, ‘Fún òjò ńlá agbára rẹ̀.’
7 He stops the hand of every man from working, so that all people whom he has made may see his deeds.
Ó fi èdìdì di ọwọ́ gbogbo ènìyàn kí gbogbo wọn kí ó lè mọ iṣẹ́ rẹ̀, ó sì tún dá olúkúlùkù ènìyàn dúró lẹ́nu iṣẹ́ rẹ̀.
8 Then the beasts go into hiding and stay in their dens.
Nígbà náà ní àwọn ẹranko wọ inú ihò lọ, wọn a sì wà ni ipò wọn.
9 The storm comes from its chamber in the south and the cold from the scattering winds in the north.
Láti ìhà gúúsù ni ìjì àjàyíká tí jáde wá, àti òtútù láti inú afẹ́fẹ́ ti tú àwọsánmọ̀ ká.
10 By the breath of God ice is given; the expanse of the waters is frozen like metal.
Nípa ẹ̀mí Ọlọ́run a fi ìdí omi fún ni, ibú omi á sì súnkì.
11 Indeed, he weighs down the thick cloud with moisture; he scatters his lightning through the clouds.
Pẹ̀lúpẹ̀lú ó fi omi púpọ̀ mú àwọsánmọ̀ wúwo, a sì tú àwọsánmọ̀ ìmọ́lẹ̀ rẹ̀ ká ara wọn.
12 He swirls the clouds around by his guidance, so that they may do whatever he commands them above the surface of the whole world.
Àwọn wọ̀nyí yí káàkiri nípa ìlànà rẹ̀, kí wọn kí ó lè ṣe ohunkóhun tí ó pàṣẹ fún wọn lórí ilẹ̀ ayé.
13 He makes all of this happen; sometimes it happens for correction, sometimes for his land, and sometimes as acts of covenant faithfulness.
Ó mú àwọsánmọ̀ wá, ìbá ṣe fún ìkìlọ̀, tàbí omi wá sí ayé láti fi ìfẹ́ rẹ̀ hàn.
14 Listen to this, Job; stop and think about God's marvelous deeds.
“Jobu, dẹtí sílẹ̀ sí èyí; dúró jẹ́ẹ́ kí o sì ro iṣẹ́ ìyanu Ọlọ́run.
15 Do you know how God establishes the clouds and makes the lightning bolts to flash in them?
Ṣe ìwọ mọ àkókò ìgbà tí Ọlọ́run ṣe wọ́n lọ́jọ̀, tí ó sì mú ìmọ́lẹ̀ àwọsánmọ̀ rẹ̀ dán?
16 Do you understand the floating of the clouds, the marvelous deeds of God, who is perfect in knowledge?
Ṣé ìwọ mọ ìgbà tí àwọsánmọ̀ í fò lọ, iṣẹ́ ìyanu ẹni tí ó pé ní ìmọ̀?
17 Do you understand how your garments become hot when the land is still because the wind comes from the south?
Ìwọ ẹni ti aṣọ rẹ̀ ti máa n gbóná, nígbà tí ó fi atẹ́gùn ìhà gúúsù mú ayé dákẹ́.
18 Can you spread out the sky as he can— the sky, which is as strong as a mirror of cast metal?
Ìwọ ha ba tẹ́ pẹpẹ ojú ọ̀run, tí ó dúró ṣinṣin, tí ó sì dàbí dígí tí ó yọ̀ dà?
19 Teach us what we should say to him, for we cannot lay out our arguments in order because of the darkness of our minds.
“Kọ́ wa ní èyí tí a lè wí fún un; nítorí pé àwa kò le wádìí ọ̀rọ̀ náà nítorí òkùnkùn wa.
20 Should he be told that I wish to speak with him? Would a person wish to be swallowed up?
A ó ha wí fún un pé, èmi fẹ́ sọ̀rọ̀? Tàbí ẹnìkan lè wí pé, ìfẹ́ mi ni pé kí a gbé mi mì?
21 Now, people cannot look at the sun when it is bright in the sky after the wind has passed through and has cleared it of its clouds.
Síbẹ̀ nísinsin yìí ènìyàn kò rí oòrùn tí ń dán nínú àwọsánmọ̀, ṣùgbọ́n afẹ́fẹ́ ń kọjá, a sì gbá wọn mọ́.
22 Out of the north comes golden splendor— over God is fearsome majesty.
Wúrà dídán ti inú ìhà àríwá jáde wá; lọ́dọ̀ Ọlọ́run ni ọláńlá ẹ̀rù ńlá wa.
23 As for the Almighty, we cannot find him! He is great in power; he does not oppress justice and abundant righteousness.
Nípa ti Olódùmarè àwa kò le wádìí rẹ̀, ó rékọjá ní ipá; nínú ìdájọ́ àti títí bi òun kì í ba ẹ̀tọ́ àti ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ òtítọ́ jẹ́.
24 Therefore, people fear him. He does not pay any attention to those who are wise in their own minds.”
Nítorí náà ènìyàn ha máa bẹ̀rù rẹ̀, òun kì í ṣe ojú sájú ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó gbọ́n ní ayé?”
