1 Tete Hiob ɖo eŋu nɛ be,
Wasephendula uJobe wathi:
2 “Mewɔ nuku be miawo koe nye amewo eye ne mieku la nunya aku kpli mi o!
Ngoba isibili lingabantu, lenhlakanipho izakufa lani.
3 Gake susu le asinye abe miawo ke ene. Mienyo wum o. Ame ka menya nu siawo katã o?
Lami ngilengqondo njengani, kangiphansi kulani. Njalo ngubani ongelazo izinto ezinje?
4 “Togbɔ be meyɔ Mawu eye wòtɔ nam hã la, mezu nu ɖikokoe na xɔ̃nyewo. Togbɔ be mele dzɔdzɔe eye fɔɖiɖi mele ŋunye o hã la, mezu alɔmeɖenu na wo!
Ngiyinhlekisa kumngane wami, obiza kuNkulunkulu amphendule; olungileyo oqondileyo uyinhlekisa.
5 Ŋutsu siwo li le dziɖeɖi me la do vlo dzɔgbevɔ̃etɔ eye nenema ke woawɔ na ame siwo ƒe afɔ ɖiɖi.
Uyisibane esidelelekayo emnakanweni wowonwabileyo; ulungele ukutshelela ngonyawo.
6 Adzohawo ƒe agbadɔwo li le ŋutifafa me eye ame siwo do dziku na Mawu la li le dedinɔnɔ me. Nenema kee nye ame siwo tsɔa woƒe mawu ɖe woƒe asi me.
Amathente abaphangi alokuthula, labamthukuthelisayo uNkulunkulu bavikelekile, kulowo oletha uNkulunkulu esandleni sakhe.
7 “Ke bia gbemelãwo, ne woafia nu wò alo dziƒoxeviwo, ne woagblɔe na wò.
Kodwa-ke buza khathesi inyamazana, zizakufundisa, lenyoni zamazulu, zizakutshela.
8 Alo ƒo nu na anyigba, ne wòafia nu wò alo na atsiaƒumelã ne wòaka eta na wò.
Kumbe khuluma lomhlaba, uzakufundisa, lenhlanzi zolwandle zizakulandisela.
9 Nu siawo katã dometɔ kae menyae be, Yehowa ƒe asie wɔ esiawo katã o?
Ngubani ongaziyo phakathi kwakho konke lokhu ukuthi isandla sikaJehova sikwenzile lokhu?
10 Nuwɔwɔ ɖe sia ɖe ƒe agbe le eƒe asi me eye amegbetɔwo katã ƒe gbɔgbɔ hã le eƒe asi me.
Okusesandleni sakhe umphefumulo wakho konke okuphilayo, lomoya wayo yonke inyama yomuntu.
11 Ɖe to medoa nyawo kpɔ abe ale si aɖe ɖɔa nuɖuɖu kpɔe ene oa?
Indlebe kayihloli yini amazwi, njengolwanga luzinambithela ukudla?
12 Ɖe menye amegãɖeɖiwo gbɔe nunya tso aƒe ɖo oa? Ɖe agbe didi mehea gɔmesese vɛ oa?
Kwabadala kakhulu kulenhlakanipho, lebudeni bezinsuku kulokuqedisisa.
13 “Mawu tɔe nye nunya kple ŋusẽ; aɖaŋudede kple gɔmesese hã nye etɔ.
Kuye kukhona inhlakanipho lamandla, uleseluleko lokuqedisisa.
14 Nu si wògbã kɔ ɖi la, womagate ŋu agbugbɔ atui o. Ame si wòde gaxɔ me la, womate ŋu aɖe asi le eŋu o.
Khangela, udiliza, kungabe kusakhiwa; uvalela umuntu, kungabe kusavulwa.
15 Ne eɖo asi tsidzadza dzi la, ku ɖina, ne egaɖe asi le eŋu fũu hã la, eɖea anyigba
Khangela, uvimbela amanzi, atshe; abesewathuma, agenqule umhlaba.
16 Etɔe nye ŋusẽ kple dziɖuɖu, ame si woble kple ameblela katã wonye etɔ.
Kuye kukhona amandla lenhlakanipho; okhohlisiweyo lomkhohlisi bangabakhe.
17 Ekplɔa dumegãwo dzonae amama eye wònana Ʋɔnudrɔ̃lawo zua bometsilawo.
Ukhupha abeluleki bahambe behlutshulwe, enze abehluleli babe yizithutha.
18 Eɖea atsyɔ̃ɖonu siwo fiawo dona la ɖa eye wòtsɔa avɔ kakɛ sana ɖe ali na wo.
Uthukulula isibopho samakhosi, abophe umbhinco enkalweni zawo.
19 Ekplɔa nunɔlawo dzonae amama eye ame siwo li ke tso gbe aɖe gbe ke la emua wo ƒua anyi.
Ukhupha abapristi bahambe behlutshulwe, awise abalamandla.
20 Edea ga nu na aɖaŋuɖola siwo ŋu woɖoa dzi ɖo eye wòɖea dumegãwo ƒe sidzedze ɖa.
Uphambula inkulumo yabathembekileyo, asuse ukuqedisisa kwabasebekhulile.
21 Edoa ŋunyɔ bubumewo eye wòxɔa lãnu le kalẽtɔwo si.
Uthela ukudelela phezu kweziphathamandla, axegise umbhinco wabalamandla.
22 Eɖea nu goglo siwo le viviti me la ɖe go eye wòhea blukɔ tsiɖitsiɖi vaa kekeli me.
Wembula izinto ezijulileyo ezisemnyameni, akhuphele ekukhanyeni ithunzi lokufa.
23 Eyae naa dukɔwo xɔa ŋkɔ eye eya kee tsrɔ̃a wo. Eyae dzia dukɔwo ɖe edzi eye eya kee kakaa wo.
Enze izizwe zibe zinkulu, abesezichitha; andise izizwe, abesezisusa.
24 Exɔa susu le anyigbadzifiawo si eye wònana wonɔa tsaglalã tsam le gbegbe.
Ususa inhliziyo yenhloko zabantu bomhlaba, aziduhise enkangala engelandlela.
25 Wotsaa asi blukɔ me afi si akaɖi mele o eye wònana wonɔa ya mum abe ame siwo mu aha ene.”
Ziphumputhe emnyameni kungelakukhanya, uzenza zidiyazele njengodakiweyo.
