Job 22
1 Forsothe Eliphat Themanytes answeride, and seide,
Nake Elifazu ũrĩa Mũtemaani agĩcookia atĩrĩ:
2 Whether a man, yhe, whanne he is of perfit kunnyng, mai be comparisound to God?
“Mũndũ aahota kũguna Mũrungu? O na mũndũ mũũgĩ-rĩ, akĩhota kũmũguna?
3 What profitith it to God, if thou art iust? ethir what schalt thou yyue to hym, if thi lijf is without wem?
Nĩ gĩkeno kĩrĩkũ ũthingu waku ũngĩrehere Mwene-Hinya-Wothe? Nĩ uumithio ũrĩkũ angĩgĩa naguo angĩkorwo mĩthiĩre yaku ndĩrĩ ũcuuke?
4 Whether he schal drede, and schal repreue thee, and schal come with thee in to doom,
“Arakũrũithia na agagũthitanga nĩ ũndũ wa wĩtigĩri Ngai waku?
5 and not for thi ful myche malice, and thi wickidnessis with out noumbre, `these peynes bifelden iustli to thee?
Githĩ waganu waku ti mũnene? Mehia maku-rĩ, makĩrĩ mũthia?
6 For thou hast take awei with out cause the wed of thi britheren; and hast spuylid nakid men of clothis.
Wetirie ũgitĩri kuuma kũrĩ ariũ a thoguo hatarĩ gĩtũmi; nĩwaũrire andũ nguo, ũkĩmatiga njaga.
7 Thou yauest not watir to the feynt man; and thou withdrowist breed fro the hungri man.
Arĩa anogu ndwamaheire maaĩ, na nĩwaimire arĩa ahũtu irio,
8 In the strengthe of thin arm thou haddist the lond in possessioun; and thou moost myyti heldist it.
o na gũtuĩka warĩ mũndũ ũrĩ hinya, ũrĩ na mĩgũnda: mũndũ ũheetwo gĩtĩĩo, na watũũraga kuo.
9 Thou leftist widewis voide; and al to-brakist the schuldris of fadirles children.
Nĩwaingatire atumia a ndigwa matarĩ na kĩndũ, na ũkĩniina hinya wa arĩa matarĩ na maithe.
10 Therfor thou art cumpassid with snaris; and sodeyn drede disturblith thee.
Nĩkĩo ũthiũrũrũkĩirio nĩ mĩtego, nĩkĩo thĩĩna wa narua ũkũmakagia,
11 And thou gessidist, that thou schuldist not se derknessis; and that thou schuldist not be oppressid with the fersnesse of watris flowyng.
nĩkĩo ũtumanĩirwo nĩ nduma, ũkaremwo nĩkuona, na nokĩo mũiyũro wa maaĩ ũkũhubanĩirie.
12 Whether thou thenkist, that God is hiyere than heuene, and is enhaunsid aboue the coppe of sterris?
“Githĩ Ngai ndarĩ o kũu igũrũ o igũrũ? O na ta kĩone ũrĩa njata iria irĩ igũrũ mũno itũũgĩrĩte!
13 And thou seist, What sotheli knowith God? and, He demeth as bi derknesse.
No rĩrĩ, wee ũroiga atĩrĩ, ‘Mũrungu nĩ atĩa angĩmenya? No atuanĩre ciira nduma-inĩ ta ĩno?
14 A cloude is his hidyng place, and he biholdith not oure thingis, and he `goith aboute the herris of heuene.
Matu matumanu nĩmamũhumbĩrĩte, nĩ ũndũ ũcio ndangĩtuona rĩrĩa egũceera kũu igũrũ gacũmbĩrĩ.’
15 Whether thou coueitist to kepe the path of worldis, which wickid men han ofte go?
Ũgũtũũra ũgeraga o njĩra ya tene ĩrĩa andũ aaganu managerera?
16 Whiche weren takun awei bifor her tyme, and the flood distriede the foundement of hem.
Nĩmahuririo ihinda rĩao rĩtanakinya, mĩthingi yao ĩgĩthererio nĩ mũiyũro wa maaĩ.
17 Whiche seiden to God, Go thou awei fro vs; and as if Almyyti God may do no thing, thei gessiden hym,
Nao meerire Mũrungu atĩrĩ, ‘Tigana na ithuĩ! Mwene-Hinya-Wothe-rĩ, angĩtwĩka atĩa?’
18 whanne he hadde fillid her housis with goodis; the sentence of whiche men be fer fro me.
No rĩrĩ, nĩwe waiyũririe nyũmba ciao na indo njega, nĩ ũndũ ũcio niĩ njikaraga haraaya na kĩrĩra kĩa andũ arĩa aaganu.
19 Iust men schulen se, and schulen be glad; and an innocent man schal scorne hem.
“Andũ arĩa athingu nĩmeyonagĩra mwanangĩko wa acio aaganu, magakena; arĩa matarĩ na ũũru mekĩte mamanyũrũragia makiugaga atĩrĩ:
20 Whether the reisyng of hem is not kit doun, and fier schal deuoure the relifs of hem?
‘Ti-itherũ thũ ciitũ nĩnyanange, mwaki nĩũcinĩte ũtonga wao.’
21 Therfor assente thou to God, and haue thou pees; and bi these thingis thou schalt haue best fruytis.
“Athĩkĩra Ngai ũikare ũrĩ na thayũ nake, ũndũ ũyũ nĩguo ũgaakũrehere ũgaacĩru.
22 Take thou the lawe of his mouth, and sette thou hise wordis in thin herte.
Ĩtĩkĩra ũrutani wa kanua gake, na ũige ciugo ciake ngoro-inĩ yaku.
23 If thou turnest ayen to Almyyti God, thou schalt be bildid; and thou schalt make wickidnesse fer fro thi tabernacle.
Ũngĩcookerera ũcio Mwene-Hinya-Wothe, nĩegũkwamũkĩra; ũngĩeheria waganu kũraya na hema yaku,
24 He schal yyue a flynt for erthe, and goldun strondis for a flynt.
na ũte ngũmba ciaku cia thahabu rũkũngũ-inĩ, na thahabu yaku ya Ofiri ũmĩte na kũu ndwaro-inĩ cia mahiga kũu mũkuru-inĩ,
25 And Almyyti God schal be ayens thin enemyes; and siluer schal be gaderid togidere to thee.
hĩndĩ ĩyo ũcio Mwene-Hinya-Wothe agaatuĩka thahabu yaku, na atuĩke betha ĩrĩa njega mũno harĩ we.
26 Thanne on Almyyti God thou schalt flowe with delicis; and thou schalt reise thi face to God.
Ti-itherũ, hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩũkona gĩkeno thĩinĩ wa ũcio Mwene-Hinya-Wothe, na nĩũgatiirĩra Ngai ũthiũ waku.
27 Thou schalt preye hym, and he schal here thee; and thou schalt yelde thi vowis.
Nĩũkamũhooya, nake nĩagakũigua, nawe nĩũkahingia mĩĩhĩtwa yaku.
28 Thou schalt deme a thing, and it schal come to thee; and lyyt schal schyne in thi weies.
Ũrĩa watua wĩkwo nĩguo ũrĩkagwo, naguo ũtheri nĩ ũkaara njĩra-inĩ ciaku.
29 For he that is mekid, schal be in glorie; and he that bowith doun hise iyen, schal be saued.
Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa andũ angĩ manyiihio, nawe ũkoiga, ‘Nĩmatũũgĩrio!’ Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩakahonokia arĩa makuĩte ngoro.
30 An innocent schal be saued; sotheli he schal be saued in the clennesse of hise hondis.
Nĩakahonokia o na ũrĩa ũrĩ na ũcuuke, ahonokio nĩ ũndũ wa ũtheru wa moko maku.”
