Job 38
1 Forsothe the Lord answeride fro the whirlewynd to Joob,
Tete Yehowa ɖo nyawo ŋu na Hiob to ahom me be,
2 and seide, Who is this man, wlappynge sentences with vnwise wordis?
“Ame ka nye esi tsɔ viviti tsyɔ nye aɖaŋudede dzi kple nya siwo gɔmesese meli na la o?
3 Girde thou as a man thi leendis; Y schal axe thee, and answere thou to me.
Tso nàbla ali dzi abe ŋutsu ene, mabia nya wò, nàɖo eŋu nam.
4 Where were thou, whanne Y settide the foundementis of erthe? schewe thou to me, if thou hast vndurstondyng.
“Afi ka nènɔ esi meɖo anyigba ƒe gɔmeɖokpewo anyi? Gblɔe nam, ne èse egɔme.
5 Who settide mesures therof, if thou knowist? ethir who stretchide forth a lyne theronne?
Ame kae dzidze eƒe kekeme kple didime? Ànyae godoo! Ame kae tsɔ dzidzeka ɖo eŋu?
6 On what thing ben the foundementis therof maad fast? ether who sente doun the corner stoon therof,
Nu ka dzi woɖo egɔme anyi ɖo? Alo ame kae ɖo eƒe dzogoedzikpe
7 whanne the morew sterris herieden me togidere, and alle the sones of God sungun ioyfuli?
esi ŋukeɣletiviwo le ha dzim ɖekae eye Mawudɔlawo katã do dzidzɔɣli?
8 Who closide togidere the see with doris, whanne it brak out comynge forth as of the wombe?
“Ame kae do ʋɔ ɖe atsiaƒu nu esi wòdo go kpoyi tso dadaa ƒe dɔ me
9 Whanne Y settide a cloude the hilyng therof, and Y wlappide it with derknesse, as with clothis of yong childhed.
esi metsɔ lilikpo wɔ eƒe awudodoe heblae ɖe viviti tsiɖitsiɖitsiɖi me,
10 Y cumpasside it with my termes, and Y settide a barre, and doris;
esi meɖo seɖoƒe nɛ, hede ʋɔtru kple gametiwo enu,
11 and Y seide, `Til hidur thou schalt come, and thou schalt not go forth ferthere; and here thou schalt breke togidere thi bolnynge wawis.
esi megblɔ be, ‘Afii ko nàse, mèkpɔ mɔ ato liƒo sia dzi o, afi sia ko wò dada kple ɖokuidodoɖedzi ase?’
12 Whethir aftir thi birthe thou comaundist to the bigynnyng of dai, and schewidist to the morewtid his place?
“Èɖe gbe na ŋdi kpɔ tso esi wò ŋkekewo dze egɔme alo na fɔŋli nya eƒe nɔƒe,
13 Whethir thou heldist schakynge togidere the laste partis of erthe, and schakedist awei wickid men therfro?
be wòalé anyigba ƒe toga, ahaʋuʋu ame vɔ̃ɖiwo ɖa le edzia?
14 A seeling schal be restorid as cley, and it schal stonde as a cloth.
Anyigba trɔ eƒe nɔnɔme abe anyi le nutrenu te ene, eye eƒe nɔnɔme le abe avɔ tɔ ene.
15 The liyt of wickid men schal be takun awey fro hem, and an hiy arm schal be brokun.
Woxɔ ame vɔ̃ɖiwo ƒe kekeli le wo si eye woŋe woƒe abɔ si wodo ɖe dzi.
16 Whethir thou entridist in to the depthe of the see, and walkidist in the laste partis of the occian?
“Èzɔ mɔ yi ɖe atsiaƒu ƒe vudo me alo zɔ le gogloƒe ƒe nudiƒewo kpɔa?
17 Whether the yatis of deeth ben openyd to thee, and `siest thou the derk doris?
Wofia ku ƒe agbowo wò kpɔa? Èkpɔ ku ƒe vɔvɔli ƒe agbowo kpɔa?
18 Whethir thou hast biholde the brede of erthe? Schewe thou to me, if thou knowist alle thingis,
Èse anyigba ƒe kekeme gɔmea? Gblɔe nam, ne ènya esiawo katã.
19 in what weie the liyt dwellith, and which is the place of derknesse;
“Afi ka mɔ si yi kekeli ƒe nɔƒe la to? Eye afi kae nye viviti nɔƒe?
20 that thou lede ech thing to hise termes, and thou vndurstonde the weies of his hows.
Àte ŋu akplɔ wo ayi wo nɔƒewoea? Ènya toƒe si yi ɖe wo nɔƒea?
21 Wistist thou thanne, that thou schuldist be borun, and knew thou the noumbre of thi daies?
Meka ɖe edzi be ènyae elabena wodzi wò ye ma ɣi xoxo! Ƒe geɖewoe nye esia esi nèle agbe!
22 Whethir thou entridist in to the tresours of snow, ether biheldist thou the tresours of hail?
“Ège ɖe sno ƒe nudzraɖoƒe alo kpɔ kpetsi ƒe nudzraɖoƒe,
23 whiche thingis Y made redy in to the tyme of an enemy, in to the dai of fiytyng and of batel.
esi meɖo ɖi na xaxaɣi, aʋaŋkekewo kple aʋakpegbe la kpɔa?
24 Bi what weie is the liyt spred abrood, heete is departid on erthe?
Afi ka mɔ si wotona yia teƒe si dzikedzo kakana le alo teƒe si wokakaa ɣedzeƒeya le ɖe anyigba blibo la dzi la to?
25 Who yaf cours to the strongeste reyn,
Ame kae ɖo toƒe na tsi gã siwo dzana kple mɔ na ahom sesẽwo,
26 and weie of the thundur sownynge? That it schulde reyne on the erthe with out man in desert, where noon of deedli men dwellith?
be woade tsi anyigba si dzi ame mele o kple gbegbe si ame menɔ o,
27 That it schulde fille a lond with out weie and desolat, and schulde brynge forth greene eerbis?
be wòaɖi kɔ na kuɖiɖinyigba gbɔlo eye wòamie gbe fɛ̃wo?
28 Who is fadir of reyn, ether who gendride the dropis of deew?
Fofo le tsidzadza sia? Ame kae nye tɔ na ahũdzadza?
29 Of whos wombe yede out iys, and who gendride frost fro heuene?
Ame ka ƒe dɔ mee tsikpe do tso? Ame kae dzi zãmu si dzana tso dziƒo,
30 Watris ben maad hard in the licnesse of stoon, and the ouer part of occian is streyned togidere.
esi tsiwo do kpe abe ahlihã ene eye gogloƒewo tame zu tsikpe?
31 Whether thou schalt mowe ioyne togidere schynynge sterris Pliades, ethir thou schalt mowe distrie the cumpas of Arturis?
“Àte ŋu abla Atifieŋu siwo le keklẽma? Àte ŋu atu Avutɔ ƒe kawoa?
32 Whether thou bryngist forth Lucifer, `that is, dai sterre, in his tyme, and makist euene sterre to rise on the sones of erthe?
Àte ŋu akplɔ ŋukeɣletiviwo ado goe ne woƒe dodoɣi ɖo alo akplɔ koklonɔ kple viawoa?
33 Whether thou knowist the ordre of heuene, and schalt sette the resoun therof in erthe?
Ènya dziƒo ƒe sewoa? Àte ŋu aɖo Mawu ƒe fiaɖuɖu anyi ɖe anyigba dzia?
34 Whethir thou schalt reise thi vois in to a cloude, and the fersnesse of watris schal hile thee?
“Àte ŋu akɔ gbe dzi ado ɣli na lilikpowo, eye nàtsɔ tsiɖɔɖɔ atsyɔ ɖokuiwò dzia?
35 Whethir thou schalt sende leitis, and tho schulen go, and tho schulen turne ayen, and schulen seie to thee, We ben present?
Wòe ɖo dzikedzo ɖe eƒe mɔ dzia? Ɖe wova gblɔna na wò be, ‘Míawoe nye esi’ mahã?
36 Who puttide wisdoom in the entrailis of man, ethir who yaf vndurstondyng to the cok?
Ame kae tsɔ nunya na dzi alo gɔmesese na susu?
37 Who schal telle out the resoun of heuenes, and who schal make acordyng of heuene to sleep?
Ame ka sie nunya le be wòaxlẽ lilikpowo? Ame kae ate ŋu aviã tsizɔ siwo le dziƒo,
38 Whanne dust was foundid in the erthe, and clottis weren ioyned togidere?
ne anyigba do kpe eye anyikɔ siwo le anyigba la lé ɖe wo nɔewo ŋu?
39 Whether thou schalt take prey to the lionesse, and schalt fille the soulis of hir whelpis,
“Wòe daa ade na dzatanɔ eye nèdia nuɖuɖu na dzatawo, ne dɔ le wo wum
40 whanne tho liggen in caues, and aspien in dennes?
eye womlɔ woƒe dowo me alo le adeklo dzi le ave mea?
41 Who makith redi for the crowe his mete, whanne hise briddis crien to God, and wandren aboute, for tho han not meetis?
Ame kae dia nuɖuɖu na akpaviãwo, ne viawo le xɔxlɔ̃m na Mawu eye wole tsatsam le nuɖuɖu makpɔmakpɔ ta?
