< Hiob 34 >
Wasephendula uElihu wathi:
2 “Mise nye nyawo, mi nunyalawo, miɖo tom, mi nugɔmeselawo,
Zwanini amazwi ami, zihlakaniphi, lani zazi, libeke indlebe kimi.
3 elabena to doa nyawo kpɔ abe ale si aɖe ɖɔa nuɖuɖu kpɔe ene.
Ngoba indlebe ihlola amazwi, njengolwanga lunambitha ukudla.
4 Mina míadze si nu si le dzɔdzɔe la na mía ɖokui eye mina míasrɔ̃ nu si nyo la ɖekae.
Asizikhetheleni isahlulelo; sazi phakathi kwethu okuhle.
5 “Hiob gblɔ be, ‘Nyemeɖi fɔ o gake Mawu gbe afiatsotso nam
Ngoba uJobe uthe: Ngilungile, kodwa uNkulunkulu ususe isahlulelo sami;
6 Togbɔ be tɔnye dzɔ hã la, wobum alakpatɔe, togbɔ be nyemeɖi fɔ o hã la, eƒe aŋutrɔ de abi makumaku ŋutinye’
ngiqamba amanga ngimelene lelungelo lami; umtshoko wami kawelapheki, ngaphandle kwesiphambeko.
7 Ame kae le abe Hiob, ame si no fewuɖuɖu abe tsi ene?
Nguwuphi umuntu onjengoJobe? Unatha ukuklolodelwa njengamanzi,
8 Edea ha kple nu vɔ̃ɖi wɔlawo eye wòbɔa ha kple ame vɔ̃ɖiwo.
ahambahambe exukwini labenzi bobubi, ahambe labantu benkohlakalo.
9 Elabena egblɔ be, ‘Viɖe aɖeke mele eme ne èdze agbagba be yeadze Mawu ŋu o.’
Ngoba uthe: Kakumsizi umuntu nxa ethokoza ngoNkulunkulu.
10 “Eya ta miɖo tom, mi ŋutsu nugɔmeselawo. Nete ɖa xaa tso Mawu gbɔ, be wòawɔ nu vɔ̃ɖi kple Ŋusẽkatãtɔ la, be wòawɔ nu gbegblẽ.
Ngakho, bantu bengqondo, ngilalelani: Kakube khatshana loNkulunkulu ukwenza inkohlakalo, loSomandla ukwenza isiphambeko.
11 Ewɔna na ame ɖe nu si wòwɔ la nu eye wòhea nu si eƒe nuwɔnawo dze na la vaa edzii.
Ngoba umsebenzi womuntu uzawubuyisela kuye, amenze athole njengendlela yalowo lalowo.
12 Mele be wòava ame ƒe ta me gɔ̃ hã be Mawu awɔ nu gbegblẽ alo be Ŋusẽkatãtɔ la atso afia ŋkunɔ o.
Yebo, isibili uNkulunkulu kenzi okubi, njalo uSomandla kagobisi isehlulelo.
13 Ame kae tsɔe ɖo anyigbadzikpɔlae? Ame kae tsɔe ɖo xexea me katã nu?
Ngubani owambeka phezu komhlaba? Kumbe ngubani owamisa umhlaba wonke?
14 Ne enye eƒe tameɖoɖo eye wòɖo asi eƒe gbɔgbɔ kple agbegbɔgbɔ dzi la,
Uba ebeka inhliziyo yakhe phezu kwakhe, uzabuthela umoya wakhe lomphefumulo wakhe kuye.
15 amegbetɔwo katã atsrɔ̃ eye ame atrɔ azu anyi.
Inyama yonke ibizaphela kanyekanye, lomuntu abuyele ethulini.
16 “Ne gɔmesese le asiwò la, se nya sia, lé to ɖe nu si gblɔ ge mele la ŋuti.
Uba kulokuqedisisa-ke, zwana lokhu, ubeke indlebe elizwini lamazwi ami.
17 Ɖe ame si tsri afia nyui tsotso la ate ŋu akplɔ dua? Ɖe nàbu fɔ dzɔdzɔetɔ kple Ŋusẽtɔ la?
Kambe, ozonda isehlulelo ubengabusa yini? Kambe uzamlahla yini olungileyo kakhulu?
18 Ɖe menye Eyae nye ame si gblɔ na fiawo be, ‘Mienyo na naneke o’ eye na bubumewo be, ‘Ame vɔ̃ɖiwo mienye’ oa,
Angatsho yini enkosini: Mkhohlisi; kuziphathamandla: Lina abangelaNkulunkulu?
19 ame si medea amegãwo dzi o eye mewɔa nyui na kesinɔtɔwo, gblẽa ame dahewo ɖi o, elabena wo katã nye eƒe asinudɔwɔwɔwo oa?
Kuye ongemukeli ubuso beziphathamandla, engananzi isinothi phambi komyanga? Ngoba bonke bangumsebenzi wezandla zakhe.
20 Wokuna kpata le zãtitina, ameawo ʋuʋuna eye wo nu va yina ale woɖea kalẽtɔwo ɖa amegbetɔ ƒe asi manɔmee.
Bayafa ngesikhatshana; laphakathi kobusuku abantu bayaqhuqhiswa, bedlule; kuzasuswa olamandla kungelasandla.
21 “Eƒe ŋkuwo le amegbetɔwo ƒe mɔwo ŋu, ekpɔa woƒe afɔɖeɖe ɖe sia ɖe.
Ngoba amehlo akhe aphezu kwendlela zomuntu, uyabona zonke izinyathelo zakhe.
22 Teƒe doblukɔ alo teƒe doviviti tsiɖitsiɖitsiɖi aɖeke meli si nu tovo wɔlawo asi abe ɖo o.
Kakulamnyama njalo kakulathunzi lokufa lapho abenzi bobubi abangacatsha khona.
23 Mehiã be Mawu nado amegbetɔwo kpɔ ayi ŋgɔ alo woava eŋkume wòadrɔ̃ ʋɔnu wo o.
Ngoba kabi lokhu enaka umuntu, ukuthi aye kuNkulunkulu esahlulelweni.
24 Mekua nya gɔme hafi kakaa ŋusẽtɔwo, eye wòtsɔa ame bubuwo ɖoa wo teƒe o.
Uyaphahlaza abalamandla kungahlolwanga, amise abanye endaweni zabo.
25 Elabena eƒe ŋku le woƒe nuwɔnawo ŋu eya ta etua asi wo ƒua anyi le zã me, eye wogbãna gudugudugudu.
Ngakho uyayazi imisebenzi yabo, uyabagenqula ebusuku, bachotshozwe.
26 Ehea to na wo ɖe woƒe vɔ̃ɖivɔ̃ɖi ta, le afi si ame sia ame ate ŋu akpɔ wo le
Uyabatshaya njengababi endaweni yababukelayo.
27 elabena wotrɔ le eyome eye womegatsɔ ɖeke le eme na eƒe mɔ aɖeke o.
Ngenxa yokuthi bephambukile ekumlandeleni, bengananzanga leyodwa yezindlela zakhe,
28 Wona ame dahewo ƒe konyifafa va eŋkume, ale be wòse hiãtɔwo ƒe ɣlidodo
baze benza ukukhala komyanga kufike kuye, njalo wakuzwa ukukhala kwabahluphekayo.
29 Ke ne ezi ɖoɖoe kpoo la, ame ka abu fɔe? Ne eɣla eƒe mo la, ame ka ate ŋu akpɔe? Ke hã la, ele amewo kple dukɔwo tame sɔsɔe,
Lapho yena ethulisa, ngubani-ke ongaziphatha ngenkohliso? Lapho efihla ubuso, ngubani-ke ongambona? Loba esizweni loba emuntwini eyedwa.
30 be maɖe mɔ na Mawumavɔ̃la wòaɖu fia o eye be maɖe mɔ nɛ wòaɖo mɔ na ameawo o.
Ukuze abantu abangabazenzisi bangabusi, ukuze bangabi yimijibila ebantwini.
31 “Tsɔe be ame aɖe gblɔ na Mawu be, ‘Medze agɔ gake nyemagawɔe azɔ o.
Isibili uthe kuNkulunkulu: Ngithwele isijeziso, kangiyikona.
32 Fia nu si nyemate ŋu akpɔ o lam, ne mewɔ nu gbegblẽ la, nyemagawɔe azɔ o.’
Lokhu engingakuboniyo ngifundise wena; uba ngenze okubi kangisayikukwenza futhi.
33 Ɖe Mawu aɖo eteƒe na wò le wò didi nu, esi nègbe be yematrɔ dzi me oa? Wòe wòle be nàɖo eŋu, menye nyee o eya ta gblɔ nu si nènya la nam.
Uzaphindisela yini njengokuthanda kwakho, loba uyala, loba wena ukhetha, njalo kungesimi? Wazini-ke? Khuluma.
34 “Nugɔmeselawo gblɔe eye nunyala siwo se nye nyawo la gblɔ nam be,
Abantu abalokuqedisisa bazakhuluma kimi, lomuntu ohlakaniphileyo uzangizwa.
35 ‘Hiob ƒoa nu nugɔmemasemasetɔe eye susu mele eƒe nyawo me o.’
UJobe ukhulume engelalwazi, lamazwi akhe kawalanhlakanipho.
36 O, ɖe woado Hiob akpɔ va se ɖe nuwuwu, be wòɖo nya ŋu abe ame vɔ̃ɖi ene la, ne anyo ŋutɔ!
Kungathi ngabe uJobe uyahlolwa kuze kube sekupheleni, ngenxa yempendulo zakhe njengabantu ababi.
37 Etsɔ aglãdzedze kpe ɖe eƒe nu vɔ̃ ŋuti, esia akpe fewuɖutɔe le mía dome eye wòle nyawo gblɔm fũu ɖe Mawu ŋu.”
Ngoba esonweni sakhe wengezelela ububi, etshaya izandla phakathi kwethu, esandisa amazwi akhe emelene loNkulunkulu.
