Job 29
1 Also Joob addide, takynge his parable, and seide,
Job gakwara nʼihu nʼokwu ya sị:
2 Who yyueth to me, that I be bisidis the elde monethis, bi the daies in whiche God kepte me?
“Ọ gaara adị m nọọ mma ma a sị na m ga-adị dịka m dị nʼọnwa ole na ole gara aga, dịka ụbọchị ndị ahụ mgbe Chineke na-elekọta m,
3 Whanne his lanterne schynede on myn heed, and Y yede in derknessis at his liyt.
mgbe oriọna ya na-achakwasị m nʼisi ìhè ya ka m ji jee ije nʼọchịchịrị.
4 As Y was in the daies of my yongthe, whanne in priuete God was in my tabernacle.
Ewoo, otu ihe dịịrị nʼụbọchị ihe na-agara m nke ọma, mgbe mmekọrịta mụ na Chineke mere ka ụlọ m bụrụ ebe a gọziri agọzi,
5 Whanne Almyyti God was with me, and my children weren in my cumpas;
mgbe Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile nọnyeere m na mgbe ụmụ m nọkwa m gburugburu,
6 whanne Y waischide my feet in botere, and the stoon schedde out to me the stremes of oile;
mgbe ụzọ m jupụtara na mmiri ara ehi rahụrụ arahụ, mgbe nkume na-awụpụtara m mmanụ oliv dịka mmiri na-asọ asọ.
7 whanne Y yede forth to the yate of the citee, and in the street thei maden redi a chaier to me.
“Mgbe m na-apụ nʼọnụ ụzọ ama obodo were ọnọdụ m nʼama.
8 Yonge men, `that is, wantoun, sien me, and weren hid, and elde men risynge vp stoden;
Ụmụ okorobịa na-ahụ m wezuga onwe ha, ndị okenye na-ahụkwa m ma guzo nʼụkwụ ha;
9 princes ceessiden to speke, and puttiden the fyngur on her mouth;
ndịisi ọchịchị obodo na-akwụsị ikwu okwu ma were aka ha kpuchie ọnụ ha;
10 duykis refreyneden her vois, and her tunge cleuyde to her throte.
olu ndị a na-asọpụrụ na-adakwa jụụ, ire ha na-araparakwa ha nʼakpo ọnụ.
11 An eere herynge blesside me, and an iye seynge yeldide witnessyng to me;
Nʼoge ahụ, onye ọbụla nụrụ olu m na-ekwu ihe dị mma banyere m, ndị hụkwara m na-agba ama ọma maka m.
12 for Y hadde delyueride a pore man criynge, and a fadirles child, that hadde noon helpere.
Nʼihi na anapụtara m ndị ogbenye na-eti mkpu enyemaka, napụtakwa ndị mgbei na-enweghị ndị enyemaka.
13 The blessyng of a man `to perische cam on me, and Y coumfortide the herte of a widewe.
Onye nọ nʼọnụ ọnwụ gọziri m; emekwara m ka obi nwanyị di ya nwụrụ bụọ abụ.
14 Y was clothid with riytfulnesse; and Y clothide me as with a cloth, and with my `doom a diademe.
Ana m eyikwasị ezi omume dịka uwe, ikpe ziri ezi bụ uwe mwụda m na akwa okike nke isi m.
15 Y was iye `to a blynde man, and foot to a crokyd man.
Abụ m anya nye onye ìsì, bụrụkwa ụkwụ nye onye ngwụrọ.
16 Y was a fadir of pore men; and Y enqueride most diligentli the cause, which Y knew not.
Abụ m nna nke onye nọ na mkpa; bụrụkwa onye gbalịrị ịhụ na ndị ọbịa natara ikpe ziri ezi.
17 Y al tobrak the grete teeth of the wickid man, and Y took awei prey fro hise teeth.
Etijiri m ikiri eze nke ndị ajọ omume, si otu a napụta ndị ha na-achọ ịdọgbu.
18 And Y seide, Y schal die in my nest; and as a palm tre Y schal multiplie daies.
“Echere m sị, ‘Aga m anwụ nʼụlọ nke aka m, na ụbọchị m ga-abakwa ụba dịka aja dị nʼala.
19 My roote is openyde bisidis watris, and deew schal dwelle in my repyng.
Mgbọrọgwụ m ga-eto rịda na mmiri, na igirigi ga-adakwasịkwa nʼalaka m abalị niile.
20 My glorie schal euere be renulid, and my bouwe schal be astorid in myn hond.
Nsọpụrụ m ga-adịgide ọhụrụ nʼime m, ụta m ga-adịgidekwa ọhụrụ nʼaka m.’
21 Thei, that herden me, abiden my sentence; and thei weren ententif, and weren stille to my counsel.
“Ụmụ mmadụ na-eji oke olileanya na-ege m ntị, ha na-ederekwa duu ịnụrụ ndụmọdụ m.
22 Thei dursten no thing adde to my wordis; and my speche droppide on hem.
Mgbe m kwụsịrị okwu, ha anaghị ekwukwa ọzọ. Okwu m na-ada juu na ntị ha.
23 Thei abididen me as reyn; and thei openyden her mouth as to the softe reyn `comynge late.
Ha na-echerekwa m dịka e si echere mmiri ozuzo, na-aṅụkwa okwu m dịka ala si aṅụ mmiri ozuzo nʼọkọchị.
24 If ony tyme Y leiyide to hem, thei bileueden not; and the liyt of my cheer felde not doun in to erthe.
Mgbe m miiri ha ọnụ ọchị, ha adịghị ekwenye ya; ìhè nke ihu m dị oke mkpa nye ha.
25 If Y wolde go to hem, Y sat the firste; and whanne Y sat as kyng, while the oost stood aboute, netheles Y was comfortour of hem that morenyden.
Ọ bụ m na-ahọpụtara ha ụzọ, na-anọdụ dịka onyeisi ha; ebiri m dịka a ga-asị na m bụ onye eze nʼetiti ndị agha ya; na dịka onye na-akasị ndị na-eru ụjụ obi.
