< Hiob 2 >
1 Gbe bubu gbe la, dziƒodɔlawo va do ɖe Yehowa ŋkume eye Satana hã va do kpli wo ɖe Mawu ƒe ŋkume.
Kwelinye ilanga njalo izingilosi zeza phambi kukaThixo, loSathane laye weza lazo ukuzezethula kuye.
2 Yehowa bia Satana be, “Afi ka nètso va do?” Satana ɖo eŋu be, “Metso tsatsa ge le anyigba dzi eye menɔ yiyim, nɔ gbɔgbɔm le edzi.”
UThixo wasesithi kuSathane, “Uvela ngaphi?” USathane wamphendula wathi, “Ngivela ekuzulazuleni emhlabeni, ngihambahamba ngisiya le lale kuwo.”
3 Tete Yehowa bia Satana be, “Èlé ŋku ɖe nye dɔla Hiob ŋua? Ame aɖeke mele anyigba dzi de enu o, enye ame maɖifɔ kple ame dzɔdzɔe, ame si vɔ̃a Yehowa eye wòtsri vɔ̃. Togbɔ be ède adã menye ɖe eŋu be magblẽ edome esi mewɔ naneke o hã la, egalé eƒe blibodede la me ɖe asi ko.”
UThixo wasesithi kuSathane, “Usuke wayinanzelela yini inceku yami uJobe? Kakho emhlabeni onjengaye; kalasici, uqondile, indoda emesabayo uNkulunkulu, exwaya okubi. Ulokhu emi kubo ubuqotho bakhe lanxa wangiphoqa ukuthi ngimdilize kungelasizatho.”
4 Satana ɖo eŋu na Yehowa be, “Ŋutilã ɖe ŋutilã teƒe, ekema ame atsɔ nu sia nu si le esi la katã ana ɖe eƒe agbe ta.
USathane waphendula wathi, “Isikhumba ngesikhumba! Umuntu anganikela loba yini alayo ukusiza impilo yakhe.
5 Do wò asi ɖa eye nàtu nu kple eƒe ŋutilã kple eƒe ƒuwo, ekema nàkpɔe ɖa be mado ɖiŋu na wò le wò ŋutɔ wò ŋkume o mahã?”
Kodwa yelula isandla sakho umtshaye inyama lamathambo akhe, uzabona uzakuthuka ebusweni bakho.”
6 Yehowa gblɔ na Satana be, “Enyo ŋutɔ. Kpɔ ɖa, ele asiwò me, gake mègaka asi eƒe agbe ya ŋu o.”
UThixo wathi kuSathane, “Kulungile, usezandleni zakho, kodwa ungayithinti impilo yakhe.”
7 Ale Satana dzo le Yehowa ŋkume hekplɔ abi vɔ̃ɖi aɖewo ƒu Hiob, tso eƒe afɔgɔme va se ɖe eƒe dzodome.
Ngakho uSathane wasesuka phambi kukaThixo wathela uJobe izilonda ezibuhlungu kusukela ngaphansi kwezinyawo zakhe kusiyafika esicholo sekhanda lakhe.
8 Tete Hiob tsɔ ze kakɛ nɔ ŋuti kum esi wònɔ anyi ɖe afi me.
UJobe wasethatha ucezu lodengezi wazihwaya ngalo ehlezi esilotheni.
9 Srɔ̃a va egbɔ biae be, “Ɖe nègalé wò blibodede la me ɖe asi koa? Do ɖiŋu na Mawu ne nàku!”
Umkakhe wathi kuye, “Ulokhu ubambelele kubo ubuqotho bakho na? Mthuke uNkulunkulu uzifele!”
10 Hiob ɖo eŋu nɛ be, “Èle nu ƒom abe nyɔnu bometsila ene. Ɖe míaxɔ nu nyuiwo ko tso Mawu gbɔ eye menye vɔ̃ hã oa?” Le nu siawo katã me la, Hiob mewɔ nu vɔ̃ le eƒe nuƒoƒo me o.
Wamphendula wathi, “Ukhuluma njengomfazi oyisiwula. Sizakwamukela okuhle kuNkulunkulu singalwamukeli uhlupho na?” Kukho konke lokhu uJobe kenzanga isono ngakutshoyo.
11 Esi Hiob xɔlɔ̃ etɔ̃awo, Temanitɔ Elifaz, Suhitɔ, Bildad kple Naamatitɔ, Zofar se dzɔgbevɔ̃e siwo katã dzɔ ɖe Hiob dzi la wodze mɔ tso woƒe aƒewo me le ŋkeke si woɖo ɖi la dzi be woaɖafa nɛ eye woafa akɔ nɛ.
Kwathi abangane bakaJobe abathathu, u-Elifazi umThemani, uBhilidadi umShuhi loZofari umNahama sebezwile ngazozonke inhlupho ezazimwele, basuka emakhaya abo bahlangana bavumelana ukuthi bahambe bayomqinisa njalo bamduduze.
12 Esi wokpɔe le adzɔge la, womete ŋu dze sii o, ale wowo avi gboo kple ɣli, wodze woƒe awu ʋlayawo eye wolɔ ke kɔ ɖe tame.
Bathi bembona besesebucwala kabaze bamazi; baqhinqa isililo, badabula izembatho zabo, bathela uthuli emakhanda abo.
13 Ale wonɔ anyi ɖe egbɔ le anyigba ŋkeke adre kple zã adre sɔŋ. Ame aɖeke mebia nya aɖekee o elabena wokpɔ ale si wònɔ veve semii.
