< Job 15 >

1 Forsothe Eliphat Themanytes answeride, and seide,
Mgbe ahụ, Elifaz onye Teman zara sị:
2 Whether a wise man schal answere, as spekynge ayens the wynd, and schal fille his stomac with brennyng, `that is, ire?
“Onye maara ihe ọ ga-eji okwu na-abaghị uru zaghachi? Ọ ga-emeju afọ ya nʼifufe na-ekpo ọkụ nke si nʼọwụwa anyanwụ?
3 For thou repreuest hym bi wordis, which is not lijk thee, and thou spekist that, that spedith not to thee.
Ọ ga-eji okwu na-abaghị uru rụọ ụka, maọbụ kwuo okwu na-enweghị isi?
4 As myche as is in thee, thou hast avoidid drede; and thou hast take awey preyeris bifor God.
Ma ị na-eleda ezi omume anya na-egbochikwa ịsọpụrụ Chineke.
5 For wickidnesse hath tauyt thi mouth, and thou suest the tunge of blasfemeris.
Mmehie gị na-eme ka ọnụ gị kwuo okwu ngwangwa; ọ bụkwa ire ndị aghụghọ ka i nwere.
6 Thi tunge, and not Y, schal condempne thee, and thi lippis schulen answere thee.
Ọnụ gị na-ama gị ikpe, ọ bụghị mụ onwe m, egbugbere ọnụ gị na-ekwu okwu megide gị.
7 Whether thou art borun the firste man, and art formed bifor alle little hillis?
“Ị bụ mmadụ mbụ a mụrụ? A mụọla gị tupu e kee ugwu niile?
8 Whether thou herdist the counsel of God, and his wisdom is lower than thou?
Ọ getụla ntị nʼizu nzuzo nke Chineke? Amamihe niile ọ bụ nʼime gị ka ha juru?
9 What thing knowist thou, whiche we knowen not? What thing vndurstondist thou, whiche we witen not?
Gịnị ka ị maara nke anyị na-amaghị? Ụdị nghọta dị aṅaa ka i nwere nke anyị na-enweghị?
10 Bothe wise men and elde, myche eldre than thi fadris, ben among vs.
Ndịisi awọ na ndị kara nka nọ nʼetiti anyị, ndị ikom mere agadi karịa nna mụrụ gị.
11 Whether it is greet, that God coumforte thee? But thi schrewid wordis forbeden this.
Ọ ga-abụ na nkasiobi Chineke bụrụ gị ihe nta, ka ọ bụ okwu dị nro nke ọ gwara gị?
12 What reisith thin herte thee, and thou as thenkynge grete thingis hast iyen astonyed?
Gịnị mere obi gị ji duhie gị, gịnị mekwara anya gị abụọ ji chagharịa,
13 What bolneth thi spirit ayens God, that thou brynge forth of thi mouth siche wordis?
nke mere iwe gị jiri dị ọkụ megide Chineke, meekwa ka okwu ọjọọ ndị a niile si nʼọnụ gị pụta?
14 What is a man, that he be with out wem, and that he borun of a womman appere iust?
“Gịnị ka mmadụ efu bụ, ọ ga-eji dị ọcha nʼobi, gịnị ka mmadụ nwanyị mụrụ bụ, na ha nwere ike ị bụ ndị ezi omume?
15 Lo! noon among hise seyntis is vnchaungable, and heuenes ben not cleene in his siyt.
Ọ bụrụ na Chineke atụkwasịghị ndị nsọ ya obi, ọ bụrụkwa na eluigwe adịghị ọcha nʼanya ya,
16 How myche more a man abhomynable and vnprofitable, that drynkith wickidnesse as water?
ọ ga-esi aṅaa tụkwasị mmadụ efu onye rụrụ arụ obi, bụ onye na-aṅụ ajọ omume dịka mmiri.
17 I schal schewe to thee, here thou me; Y schal telle to thee that, that Y siy.
“Gee m ntị ka m kọwaara gị; kwerekwa ka m gwa gị ihe m hụrụ,
18 Wise men knoulechen, and hiden not her fadris.
bụ ihe ndị amamihe kwuru, ndị na-ezobeghị ihe ha natara nʼaka nna nna ha,
19 To whiche aloone the erthe is youun, and an alien schal not passe bi hem.
bụ ndị e nyefere ala ndị a nʼaka ha mgbe ọ dịghị onye ọbịa gabigara nʼetiti ha.
20 A wickid man is proud in alle hise daies; and the noumbre of hise yeeris and of his tirauntrie is vncerteyn.
Ụbọchị ndụ ya niile, onye ajọ omume na-ata ahụhụ mmekpa ahụ, bụ nke e debere ogologo afọ nye nwoke ahụ na-eme ihe ike.
21 The sown of drede is euere in hise eeris, and whanne pees is, he supposith euere tresouns.
Ụzụ na-eweta oke egwu na-eju ya ntị, mgbe ọ dị ka ihe niile na-aga nke ọma, ndị na-apụnara mmadụ ihe na-abịakwasị ya.
22 He bileueth not that he may turne ayen fro derknessis to liyt; and biholdith aboute on ech side a swerd.
O nweghị olileanya ịgbanarị ọchịchịrị; mma agha nọ na-echere ya.
23 Whanne he stirith hym to seke breed, he woot, that the dai of derknessis is maad redi in his hond.
Ọ na-akpagharị na-achọ ebe nri dịka udele; ọ makwara na ụbọchị ọchịchịrị nọ nso.
24 Tribulacioun schal make hym aferd, and angwisch schal cumpas hym, as a kyng which is maad redi to batel.
Ahụhụ na mkpagbu na-eme ka ọ tụọ oke egwu, nsogbu na-abịakwasị ya dịka eze nke nọ na njikere ibuso ndị iro ya agha.
25 For he helde forth his hond ayens God, and he was maad strong ayens Almyyti God.
Nʼihi na ọ na-atụ Chineke aka nʼihu, dokwaa onwe ya imegide Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile.
26 He ran with neck reisid ayens God, and he was armed with fat nol.
O ji ikwesi olu ike, dịka ọta siri ike, na-emegide Chineke.
27 Fatnesse, that is, pride `comyng forth of temporal aboundaunce, hilide his face, `that is, the knowyng of vndurstondyng, and outward fatnesse hangith doun of his sidis.
“Ọ bụ ezie na abụba kpuchiri ihu ya, abụba nke dị nʼukwu ya na-eme ka anụ ahụ nupụtakwa,
28 He schal dwelle in desolat citees, and in deseert, `ethir forsakun, housis, that ben turned in to biriels.
ọ ga-ebi nʼobodo e bibiri ebibi, nʼụlọ nke mmadụ na-ekwesighị ibi nʼime ha, ụlọ nke na-adakasị adakasị.
29 He schal not be maad riche, nether his catel schal dwelle stidefastli; nether he schal sende his roote in the erthe,
Ma ọ gaghị aga nʼihu ị bụ ọgaranya, akụ ya agaghị adịgidekwa. Ihe o nwere agakwaghị agbasapụ nʼala niile ahụ.
30 nether he schal go awei fro derknessis. Flawme schal make drie hise braunchis, and he schal be takun a wey bi the spirit of his mouth.
Ọ gaghị agbanarị ọchịchịrị, ire ọkụ ga-eme ka ome ya kpọnwụọ, iku ume nke ọnụ Chineke ga-ebufu ya.
31 Bileue he not veynli disseyued bi errour, that he schal be ayenbouyt bi ony prijs.
Ka onye dị otu a hapụ ịghọgbu onwe ya site nʼịtụkwasị uche nʼihe efu, nʼihi na ọ dịghị ụgwọ ọrụ ọbụla ọ ga-enweta.
32 Bifor that hise daies ben fillid, he schal perische, and hise hondis schulen wexe drye;
Tụpụ oge ya eruo, ọ ga-anata ụgwọ ọrụ ya nʼuju, ọzọ, alaka ya ga-akpọnwụ
33 he schal be hirt as a vyne in the firste flour of his grape, and as an olyue tre castinge awei his flour.
Ọ ga-adị ka osisi vaịnị nke mkpụrụ ya dapụsịrị na-achaghị acha, dịka osisi oliv nke akwụkwọ ya kpọnwụrụ akpọnwụ.
34 For the gaderyng togidere of an ipocrite is bareyn, and fier schal deuoure the tabernaclis of hem, that taken yiftis wilfuli.
Nʼihi na ndị na-amaghị Chineke ga-adị ka nwanyị aga, ọkụ ga-erepịa ụlọ ikwu niile nke ndị hụrụ iri ngarị nʼanya.
35 He conseyuede sorewe, and childide wickidnesse, and his wombe makith redi tretcheries.
Ha na-atụrụ ihe ọjọọ dịka ime, ma mụọkwa ajọọ omume; naanị aghụghọ ka akpanwa ha na-arụpụta.”
