< Job 38 >

1 Forsothe the Lord answeride fro the whirlewynd to Joob,
Mgbe ahụ, Onyenwe anyị sitere nʼoke ifufe gwa Job okwu sị:
2 and seide, Who is this man, wlappynge sentences with vnwise wordis?
“Onye bụ onye a nke ji okwu ihe ọmụma na-adịghị na ya na-eme ka atụmatụ m ghara ịpụta ìhè?
3 Girde thou as a man thi leendis; Y schal axe thee, and answere thou to me.
Ugbu a, jikere onwe gị dịka dimkpa nʼihi na enwere m ajụjụ m ga-ajụ gị nke m chọrọ ka i nye m ọsịsa ha.
4 Where were thou, whanne Y settide the foundementis of erthe? schewe thou to me, if thou hast vndurstondyng.
“Ebee ka ị nọ mgbe m tọrọ ntọala ụwa? Gwa m ma ọ bụrụ na ị ghọtara.
5 Who settide mesures therof, if thou knowist? ethir who stretchide forth a lyne theronne?
Onye kpebiri ihe ụwa ga-aha ka ya? Nʼezie ị maara, onye setịrị ihe ọtụtụ e ji tụọ ya nʼelu ya?
6 On what thing ben the foundementis therof maad fast? ether who sente doun the corner stoon therof,
Nʼelu gịnị ka a tọrọ ntọala ya, onye doro nkume mbụ e ji tọọ ntọala ya?
7 whanne the morew sterris herieden me togidere, and alle the sones of God sungun ioyfuli?
Mgbe kpakpando nke isi ụtụtụ zukọrọ bụọ abụ, ụmụ Chineke niile tisikwara mkpu ọṅụ ike?
8 Who closide togidere the see with doris, whanne it brak out comynge forth as of the wombe?
“Onye kara akara nye osimiri iwu ebe ọ ga-ejedebe mgbe o nupụtara dịka a ga-asị na o si nʼakpanwa pụta,
9 Whanne Y settide a cloude the hilyng therof, and Y wlappide it with derknesse, as with clothis of yong childhed.
mgbe m yikwasịrị ha igwe ojii dịka uwe, werekwa ọchịchịrị meere ya akwa okike,
10 Y cumpasside it with my termes, and Y settide a barre, and doris;
mgbe m kpaara ya oke ebe ọ ga-akwụsị, tinye ibo ọnụ ụzọ na mkpọrọ e ji akpọchi ya,
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.
mgbe m sịrị, ‘Ruo ebe a ka ị ga-asọrute, ị gaghị agabiga ya, nʼebe a ka a ga-akwụsị ebili mmiri mpako gị’?
12 Whethir aftir thi birthe thou comaundist to the bigynnyng of dai, and schewidist to the morewtid his place?
“O nweela oge i nyere ụtụtụ iwu, maọbụ mee ka chi ọbụbọ maara ọnọdụ ya,
13 Whethir thou heldist schakynge togidere the laste partis of erthe, and schakedist awei wickid men therfro?
ka o jide akụkụ niile nke ụwa aka ma site nʼụwa yọpụ ndị mmebi iwu?
14 A seeling schal be restorid as cley, and it schal stonde as a cloth.
Ụwa na-ewere ụdịdị ya dịka ụrọ a kakwasịrị akara; ụdịdị ya na-egosipụta dịka uwe.
15 The liyt of wickid men schal be takun awey fro hem, and an hiy arm schal be brokun.
A na-eme ka ndị na-emebi iwu ghara inwe ìhè, meekwa ka aka e weliri elu bụrụ nke a nyajiri.
16 Whethir thou entridist in to the depthe of the see, and walkidist in the laste partis of the occian?
“I jeruola nʼisi iyi mmiri dị nʼosimiri, ka i jegharịala nʼebe miri emi nke ogbu mmiri?
17 Whether the yatis of deeth ben openyd to thee, and `siest thou the derk doris?
O nweela onye gosiri gị ọnụ ụzọ ọnwụ? Ka i jirila anya gị hụ ọnụ ụzọ nke onyinyo ọnwụ?
18 Whethir thou hast biholde the brede of erthe? Schewe thou to me, if thou knowist alle thingis,
Ị ghọtara ịdị ukwu nke ụwa na otu o si gbasapụ? Gwa m, ma ọ bụrụ na ị maara ihe ndị a niile.
19 in what weie the liyt dwellith, and which is the place of derknesse;
“Olee ụzọ e si aga ebe ìhè bi? Olee ebe ọchịchịrị bi?
20 that thou lede ech thing to hise termes, and thou vndurstonde the weies of his hows.
Ị nwere ike iduru ha jee nʼebe ha bi? Ị maara ụzọ e si eje ebe obibi ha?
21 Wistist thou thanne, that thou schuldist be borun, and knew thou the noumbre of thi daies?
Nʼezie ị maara, nʼihi na a mụọla gị tupu e kee ihe ndị a! Ị bikwaala ọtụtụ afọ.
22 Whethir thou entridist in to the tresours of snow, ether biheldist thou the tresours of hail?
“Ị banyela nʼụlọ niile ebe a na-achịkọba snoo, ka ị hụla ụlọ niile ebe a na-achịkọba mkpụrụ mmiri igwe,
23 whiche thingis Y made redy in to the tyme of an enemy, in to the dai of fiytyng and of batel.
nke m chekwara nye oge nsogbu, nʼoge ọgụ na nʼoge agha?
24 Bi what weie is the liyt spred abrood, heete is departid on erthe?
Kedụ ụzọ e si ejeru ebe a na-anọ ekesasị amụma egbe eluigwe, ebee ka e si ekesasị ifufe ọwụwa anyanwụ nʼelu ụwa?
25 Who yaf cours to the strongeste reyn,
Onye wara ụzọ maka oke mmiri ozuzo, onye kwa waara amụma na egbe eluigwe ụzọ?
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?
Si otu a mee ka mmiri zokwasị ebe mmadụ na-ebighị, ala ọzara ebe ọ dịghị onye nọ nʼime ya,
27 That it schulde fille a lond with out weie and desolat, and schulde brynge forth greene eerbis?
ka mmiri ozuzo mee ka ala kpọrọ nkụ nweta mmiri iji mee ka ahịhịa pupụta nʼime ya.
28 Who is fadir of reyn, ether who gendride the dropis of deew?
Mmiri ozuzo o nwere nna? Onye mụrụ igirigi?
29 Of whos wombe yede out iys, and who gendride frost fro heuene?
Site nʼakpanwa onye ka mkpụrụ mmiri si apụta? Onye kwa bụ nne oke oyi nke eluigwe,
30 Watris ben maad hard in the licnesse of stoon, and the ouer part of occian is streyned togidere.
nke na-eme ka mmiri kpụkọtaa dịrị ike dịka nkume, meekwa ka ihu ogbu mmiri kpụkọta?
31 Whether thou schalt mowe ioyne togidere schynynge sterris Pliades, ethir thou schalt mowe distrie the cumpas of Arturis?
“Ị pụrụ ikechi agbụ niile nke Pleiades? Ị pụrụ ịtọpụ ihe nkechikọta Orion?
32 Whether thou bryngist forth Lucifer, `that is, dai sterre, in his tyme, and makist euene sterre to rise on the sones of erthe?
Ị pụrụ ime ka igwe kpakpando pụta nʼoge ha maọbụ dupụta anụ ndọgbu Bịa na ụmụ ya ndị ọzọ?
33 Whether thou knowist the ordre of heuene, and schalt sette the resoun therof in erthe?
Ị maara iwu na-achị ihe niile dị na mbara eluigwe? Ị pụrụ inye ha ike ịchị ụwa?
34 Whethir thou schalt reise thi vois in to a cloude, and the fersnesse of watris schal hile thee?
“Ị pụrụ iti mkpu ruo igwe ojii si otu a mee ka idee mmiri kpuchie gị?
35 Whethir thou schalt sende leitis, and tho schulen go, and tho schulen turne ayen, and schulen seie to thee, We ben present?
Ị pụrụ izipụ amụma egbe eluigwe nʼụzọ ha? Ha na-asị gị, ‘Ebe a ka anyị nọ’?
36 Who puttide wisdoom in the entrailis of man, ethir who yaf vndurstondyng to the cok?
Onye na-etinye amamihe nʼobi mmadụ, maọbụ na-enye oke ọkpa nghọta?
37 Who schal telle out the resoun of heuenes, and who schal make acordyng of heuene to sleep?
Onye nwere amamihe ịgụ igwe ojii niile dị na mbara eluigwe ọnụ? Onye kwa pụrụ ịhulata karama mmiri niile nke eluigwe niile,
38 Whanne dust was foundid in the erthe, and clottis weren ioyned togidere?
mgbe aja dị nʼala siri ike, mgbe ọkpụrụkpụ aja dị nʼala na-akpụkọta nʼahụ ibe ha?
39 Whether thou schalt take prey to the lionesse, and schalt fille the soulis of hir whelpis,
“Ọ bụ gị na-achụtara nne ọdụm ihe oriri, mee ka afọ ju ụmụ ọdụm
40 whanne tho liggen in caues, and aspien in dennes?
mgbe ha makpuuru nʼime ọgba ha, maọbụ mgbe ha zoro onwe ha na-eche anụ nʼọhịa?
41 Who makith redi for the crowe his mete, whanne hise briddis crien to God, and wandren aboute, for tho han not meetis?
Onye na-edoziri ugolọma ihe oriri ya, mgbe ụmụ ya na-etiku Chineke mkpu agụ, mgbe ha na-akpagharị na-achọ ihe oriri?
