Job 37
1 At this also my heart trembleth, and is moved out of its place.
“Esia na nye dzi lã kpo eye wòti kpo le enɔƒe.
2 Hear attentively the noise of his voice, and the sound [that] goeth out of his mouth.
O ɖo to! Ɖo to eƒe gbe ƒe gbeɖeɖe kple bublu si le dodom tso eƒe nu me.
3 He directeth it under the whole heaven, and his lightning to the ends of the earth.
Eɖe asi le eƒe dzokeke ŋu ɖe yame katã eye wòɖoe ɖe anyigba ƒe mlɔenu ke hã
4 After it a voice roareth: he thundereth with the voice of his excellence; and he will not stay them 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 marvelously with his voice; great things he doeth, which we cannot comprehend.
Mawu ƒe gbe bluna le nukumɔwo dzi, ewɔa nu dzɔtsu siwo kɔ wu míaƒe gɔmesese.
6 For he saith to the snow, Be thou [on] the earth; likewise to the small rain, and to the great rain of his strength.
Egblɔna na tsikpe be, ‘Dza ɖe anyigba dzi’ eye na tsi be, ‘Nye tsi gã aɖe nàdza.’
7 He sealeth up the hand of every man; that all men may know his work.
Ale be amegbetɔ siwo katã wòwɔ la nanya eƒe dɔwɔwɔ, eye wòɖoa asi ame sia ame ƒe dɔ dzi.
8 Then the beasts go into dens, and remain in their places.
Gbemelãwo sina bena eye wonɔa woƒe dowo me.
9 From the south cometh the whirlwind: and cold from the north.
Ahom tsoa eƒe xɔa me vana eye ya sesẽwo hea vuvɔ vɛ.
10 By the breath of God frost is given: and the breadth of the waters is straitened.
Mawu ƒe gbɔgbɔ hea fafa gã aɖe vɛ eye tsi gbanawo dzi zua tsikpe.
11 Also by watering he wearieth the thick cloud: he scattereth his bright cloud:
Enyɔa tsi ɖe lilikpowo me, ekakaa eƒe dzikedzo to wo me.
12 And it is turned around by his counsels: that they may do whatever he commandeth them upon the face of the world on 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 He causeth it to come, whether for correction, or for his land, or for mercy.
Ehea lilikpowo vɛ be woahe to na amewo alo be woade tsi anyigba, ne wòaɖe eƒe lɔlɔ̃ afia ameawo.
14 Hearken to this, O Job: stand still, and consider the wondrous works of God.
“Hiob, ɖo to nàse nu sia, zi ɖoɖoe eye nàbu Mawu ƒe nukunuwo ŋu.
15 Dost thou know when God disposed them, and caused the light of his cloud to shine?
Ènya ale si Mawu léa lilikpowo ɖe asii, eye wònana dzi kea dzoa?
16 Dost thou know the balancings of the clouds, the wondrous works of him 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 How thy garments [are] warm, when he quieteth the earth by the south [wind]?
Wò ame si le fifia tem le wò awuwo me, ne dzieheya xɔdzo nya ƒo to anyigba dzi ko,
18 Hast thou with him spread out the sky [which is] strong, [and] as a molten looking-glass?
àte ŋu akpe ɖe eŋu le dziŋgɔli ƒe keke ɖe yame me, nu si sesẽ abe ahuhɔ̃e si wowɔ kple akɔbli enea?
19 Teach us what we shall say to him; [for] we cannot order [our speech] 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 told him that I speak? If a man shall speak, surely he will be swallowed up.
Wonegblɔ nɛ be medi be maƒo nua? Ɖe ame aɖe abia be wonemi ye agbagbea?
21 And now [men] see not the bright light which [is] in the clouds: but the wind passeth, and cleanseth them.
Azɔ la, ame aɖeke mate ŋu akpɔ ɣe o elabena ele keklẽm le dziƒo ŋutɔ, esi yaƒoƒo na eƒe mo kɔ nyuie.
22 Fair weather cometh from the north: with God [is] terrible majesty.
Edo tso anyiehe kple sikatsyɔ̃ɖoɖo. Mawu ɖiɖi va le ŋɔdzi ƒe ŋutikɔkɔe me.
23 [Touching] the Almighty, we cannot find him out: [he is] excellent in power, and in judgment, and in abundance of justice: he will not afflict.
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 Men therefore fear him: he respecteth not any [that are] wise of heart.
Eya ta amewo dea bubu eŋu elabena ɖe medea bubu ame siwo katã ƒe dzi me nunya le la ŋu oa?”
