Hiob 26
1 Hiob ɖo eŋu nɛ be,
Wasephendula uJobe wathi:
2 “Miekpe ɖe ame beli la ŋu ŋutɔ! Miekpe ɖe ame gblɔe la ƒe abɔ ŋu ŋutɔ!
Umsize njani ongelamandla, wasindisa ingalo engelamandla?
3 Aɖaŋu kae nye esi nèna ame si si nunya mele o! Eye sidzedze kae nye gã si nèɖe fia!
Umeluleke njani ongelakuhlakanipha, watshumayela ngobunengi ulwazi oluqotho?
4 Ame kae kpe ɖe ŋuwò be nègblɔ nya siawo? Eye ame ka ƒe gbɔgbɔe ƒo nu to dziwò?
Utshele bani amazwi? Njalo ngumoya kabani ophume kuwe?
5 “Ame kukuwo le vevesese gã aɖe me, nenema kee nye ame siwo le tɔ gɔme kple ame siwo le tɔ me.
Abafileyo bayathuthumela ngaphansi kwamanzi, labahlali bawo.
Isihogo sinqunu phambi kwakhe, lencithakalo kayilasisibekelo. (Sheol h7585)
7 Ekeke dzigbeme ƒe lilikpowo ɖe teƒe siwo naneke mele o eye wòna anyigba le yame, naneke melée ɖe asi o.
Welulela inyakatho phezu kwendawo engelalutho, aphanyeke umhlaba phezu kweze.
8 Eŋlɔ tsiwo ɖe lilikpowo me, gake woƒe kpekpe mena lilikpoawo gbã o.
Uyabophela amanzi emayezini akhe, kodwa amayezi kawadabuki ngaphansi kwawo.
9 Etsɔ nu tsyɔ ɣleti si sɔ tegblẽe la ƒe ŋkume eye wòkeke eƒe lilikpowo ɖe edzi.
Uyasibekela ubuso besihlalo sakhe sobukhosi, endlale iyezi phezu kwaso.
10 Eɖe liƒo na dzite ɖe tsiwo dzi eye wòde mama kekeli kple viviti dome.
Udwebe umngcele oyisigombolozi phezu kobuso bamanzi, kuze kube sekucineni kokukhanya lomnyama.
11 Ne ele mo kam na nuwɔwɔwo la, dziƒosɔtiwo ʋuʋuna eye wodzona nyanyanya.
Insika zamazulu ziyathuthumela, zethuswa yikukhuza kwakhe.
12 Ena atsiaƒu dze agbo to eƒe ŋusẽ dzi eye wòfli Rahab kakɛkakɛ to eƒe nya dzi.
Ngamandla akhe uthulisa ulwandle, langenhlakanipho yakhe uphahlaza ukuziqhenya.
13 Ena dziŋgɔli me kɔ to eƒe ŋɔtimegbɔgbɔ dzi eye eƒe asi ŋɔ da vɔ̃ɖi si ɖiɖi va yina.
Ngomoya wakhe ucecise amazulu; isandla sakhe sagwaza inyoka ebalekayo.
14 Esiawoe nye eƒe dɔwɔwɔwo ƒe sue aɖe ko eye aleke dalĩ si wodo le eŋuti miese la le bɔlɔe ale! Eya ta ame kae ate ŋu ase eƒe ŋusẽ ƒe gbeɖeɖe gɔme?”
Khangela, lokhu kungamaphethelo ezindlela zakhe; kodwa kuzwakala into encinyane kangakanani ngaye! Kanti umdumo wamandla akhe ngubani ongawuqedisisa?
