1 Tete Suhitɔ, Bildad ɖo eŋu na Hiob be,
Awo Birudaadi Omusukusi n’ayanukula n’agamba nti,
2 Ɣe ka ɣi miadzudzɔ nya siawo gbɔgblɔ? Midze nunya ekema míate ŋu aƒo nu.
“Mulikomya ddi okufuulafuula ebigambo? Muddeemu amagezi, tulyoke twogere.
3 Nu ka ŋuti wobu mí movitɔwoe eye wobu mí bometsilawoe le wò ŋkume?
Lwaki tutwalibwa ng’ente era ne tulowoozebwa okuba abasirusiru mu maaso gammwe?
4 Wò ame si vuvu ɖokuiwò kɔ ɖi le wò dziku me, ɖe wòle be woagblẽ anyigba ɖi ɖe tawò alo woaɖe agakpewo ɖa le wò teƒea?
Ggwe eyeyuzayuza olw’obusungu, abantu ensi bagiveeko ku lulwo, oba enjazi zive mu bifo byazo?
5 “Wotsia ame vɔ̃ɖi ƒe akaɖi eye eƒe dzo megabina o.
“Ddala etabaaza y’omukozi w’ebibi ezikidde, era n’omuliro gw’ekyoto kye tegukyayaka.
6 Kekeli si le eƒe agbadɔ me la doa viviti eye akaɖi si le eƒe axadzi la hã tsina.
Ekitangaala kivudde mu weema ye; n’ettaala eri ku mabbali ge nayo ezikidde.
7 Megatea ŋu ɖea abla o eye eya ŋutɔ ƒe nuɖoɖowo ƒunɛ anyi.
Amaanyi gamuwedde, ebigere bye tebikyali bya maanyi, era enkwe ze, ze zimusuula.
8 Eƒe afɔ ɖoa ɖɔ me eye wòƒoa dablibɛ le ɖɔkawo me.
Eky’amazima ebigere bye byamusuula mu kitimba era n’atangatanga mu butimba.
9 Mɔ léa afɔkpodzi nɛ eye mɔ̃ka blanɛ sesĩe.
Omutego gumukwata ekisinziiro; akamasu ne kamunyweeza.
10 Wolɔa ke kɔna ɖe mɔka dzi nɛ le anyigba eye wotrea mɔ ɖe eƒe mɔ me.
Omuguwa gumukwekerwa mu ttaka; akatego kamulindirira mu kkubo lye.
11 Ŋɔdzidodowo doa vodzi nɛ le akpa sia akpa eye wokplɔa eƒe afɔɖeɖe ɖe sia ɖe ɖo.
Entiisa emukanga enjuuyi zonna era n’emugoba kigere ku kigere.
12 Dzɔgbevɔ̃e tsi dzi vevie be yeadzɔ ɖe edzi eye gbegblẽ le klalo be yeava edzi ne edze anyi.
Emitawaana gimwesunga; ekikangabwa kirindiridde okugwa kwe.
13 Eɖu eƒe ŋutilã ƒe akpa aɖewo eye ku ƒe ŋgɔgbevi vuvu eƒe ŋutinuwo
Kirya ebitundu by’olususu lwe; omubereberye wa walumbe amulyako emikono n’ebigere.
14 Woɖee ɖa le eƒe agbadɔ si nye eƒe sitsoƒe la me eye wokplɔe yina na ŋɔdziwo ƒe fia.
Aggyibwa mu bukuumi bwa weema ye era n’atwalibwa eri kabaka w’ebikangabwa.
15 Dzo bibi xɔ aƒe ɖe eƒe agbadɔ me eye aŋɔka bibi kaka ɖe eƒe nɔƒe.
Omuliro gumalirawo ddala byonna eby’omu weema ye; ekibiriiti kyakira mu kifo mw’abeera.
16 Eƒe kewo yrɔna le ete ke eye eƒe aŋgbawo yrɔna le eƒe tame.
Emirandira gye gikala wansi, n’amatabi ge gakala waggulu.
17 Woŋlɔnɛ be le anyigba dzi eye eƒe ŋkɔ buna le amewo dome.
Ekijjukizo kye kibula ku nsi; talina linnya mu nsi.
18 Wonyanɛ tso kekeli nu yina ɖe viviti me eye woɖenɛ ɖa le xexea me.
Agobebwa okuva mu kitangaala, agenda mu kizikiza n’aggyibwa mu nsi.
19 Vi alo dzidzimevi menɔa esi le eƒe amewo dome o eye ame aɖeke metsia agbe le teƒe si wònɔ va yi o.
Talina mwana wadde omuzzukulu mu bantu be, newaakubadde ekifo mwabeera.
20 Ɣetoɖoƒetɔwo ƒe nu ku le nu si dzɔ ɖe edzi ta eye vɔvɔ̃ ɖo ɣedzeƒetɔwo.
Abantu ab’ebugwanjuba beewuunya ebyamutuukako; n’ab’ebuvanjuba ne bakwatibwa ekikangabwa.
21 Vavãe, aleae ame vɔ̃ɖi ƒe nɔƒe nɔna, aleae ame si menya Mawu o la ƒe nɔƒe nɔna.”
Ddala bw’etyo bw’ebeera ennyumba y’omukozi w’ebibi; bwe gaba bwe gatyo amaka g’oyo atamanyi Katonda.”
