1 Ŋutsu aɖe nɔ Uznyigba dzi si ŋkɔe nye Hiob. Ŋutsu sia nye mokakamanɔŋutɔ kple ame dzɔdzɔe, evɔ̃a Mawu, eye wòtsri nu vɔ̃ɖi.
Kwakukhona indoda elizweni leUzi, ibizo layo lalinguJobe. Leyondoda yayiphelele-ke, iqondile, imesaba uNkulunkulu, ixwaya okubi.
2 Viŋutsu adre kple vinyɔnu etɔ̃ nɔ esi,
Yasizalelwa amadodana ayisikhombisa lamadodakazi amathathu.
3 kpe ɖe alẽ akpe adre, kposɔ akpe etɔ̃, nyi siwo wode kɔkuti kɔ na woŋlɔa agblee eveve teƒe alafa atɔ̃ kple tedzi alafa atɔ̃ kple subɔla gbogbo aɖewo ŋu. Eyae nye ŋutsu si de ŋgɔ wu ame sia ame le ɣedzeƒetɔwo katã dome.
Lemfuyo yayo yayiyizimvu eziyizinkulungwane eziyisikhombisa, lamakamela ayizinkulungwane ezintathu, lezipane zenkabi ezingamakhulu amahlanu, labobabhemi abasikazi abangamakhulu amahlanu, lenceku ezinengi kakhulu. Ngakho lowomuntu wayemkhulu okwedlula bonke abantu bempumalanga.
4 Via ŋutsuwo ɖoa nuɖukplɔ̃ na wo xɔlɔ̃wo ɖe woƒe aƒewo me ɖe wo nɔewo yome eye wokpea wo nɔvinyɔnu etɔ̃awo be woaɖu nu ano nu kple yewo.
Njalo amadodana akhe ahamba enza idili endlini yaleyo laleyo ngosuku lwayo; athuma abiza odadewabo abathathu ukuze badle banathe lawo.
5 Ne kplɔ̃ɖoɖo la dze wo dzi kpe ɖo vɔ la, Hiob dɔa ame ɖa woɖakɔa wo ŋuti. Esaa numevɔ ɖe wo dometɔ ɖe sia ɖe nu, le ŋdi kanya elabena esusuna be, “Ɖewohĩ vinyewo wɔ nu vɔ̃ eye wodo ɖiŋu na Mawu le woƒe dziwo me.” Esiae Hiob wɔna ɖaa.
Kwakusithi lapho esephelile amazopha ensuku zedili, uJobe athume, awangcwelise, avuke ekuseni kakhulu, anikele iminikelo yokutshiswa ngokwenani lawo wonke, ngoba uJobe wathi: Mhlawumbe amadodana ami onile, amthuka uNkulunkulu enhliziyweni yawo. Wenza njalo uJobe zonke izinsuku.
6 Gbe ɖeka la, dziƒodɔlawo va be woatsɔ wo ɖokui afia Yehowa, eye Satana hã nɔ wo dome.
Kwasekusiba losuku lapho amadodana kaNkulunkulu eza ukuzimisa phambi kweNkosi, loSathane laye wafika phakathi kwawo.
7 Yehowa bia Satana be, “Afi ka nètso?” Satana ɖo eŋu na Yehowa be, “Metso tsatsa ge le anyigba dzi, menɔ yiyim nɔ gbɔgbɔm le edzi.”
INkosi yasisithi kuSathane: Uvela ngaphi? USathane wasephendula iNkosi wathi: Ekuzulazuleni emhlabeni lekuhambahambeni kuwo.
8 Tete Yehowa bia Satana be, “Èlé ŋku ɖe nye dɔla Hiob ŋua? Ame aɖeke mele anyigba dzi de enu o; enye mokakamanɔŋutɔ kple ame dzɔdzɔe, ŋutsu si vɔ̃a Mawu eye wòtsri nu vɔ̃ɖi.”
INkosi yasisithi kuSathane: Ubekile yini inhliziyo yakho encekwini yami uJobe, ngoba kakho onjengayo emhlabeni, umuntu opheleleyo loqondileyo, owesaba uNkulunkulu loxwaya ububi?
9 Ke Satana bia Mawu be, “Ɖe Hiob vɔ̃a Mawu dzodzroa?
USathane wasephendula iNkosi wathi: UJobe umesabela ize uNkulunkulu yini?
10 Menye wòe tɔ kpɔ ƒo xlã eya amea, eƒemetɔwo kple nu sia nu si le esi la oa? Èyra eƒe asinudɔwo ale be eƒe alẽhawo kple lãhawo gbagbã ɖe anyigba dzi.
Kawumbiyelanga yini yena lendlu yakhe lakho konke alakho inhlangothi zonke? Ubusisile umsebenzi wezandla zakhe, lezifuyo zakhe zanda kakhulu elizweni.
11 Ke do wò asi ɖa, ne nàxlã asi ɖe nu siwo katã le esi, ekema le nyateƒe me aƒo fi ade wò le wò ŋutɔ wò ŋkume.”
Kodwa isibili yelula isandla sakho khathesi, uthinte konke alakho; sibili uzakuthuka ebusweni bakho.
12 Yehowa gblɔ na Satana be, “Enyo ta, nu sia nu si le esi la le asiwò me, ke mègaka asibidɛ eya amea ŋutɔ ŋu o.” Ale Satana dzo le Yehowa ŋkume.
INkosi yasisithi kuSathane: Khangela konke alakho kusesandleni sakho; kuphela kuye ungeluleli isandla sakho. Wasephuma uSathane phambi kweNkosi.
13 Gbe ɖeka la, esime Hiob ƒe viŋutsuwo kple via nyɔnuwo nɔ nu ɖum, nɔ wain nom le wo nɔvi tsitsitɔ ƒe aƒe me la,
Kwasekusiba losuku lapho amadodana lamadodakazi akhe ayesidla enatha iwayini endlini yomfowabo olizibulo.
14 dɔla aɖe va Hiob gbɔ gblɔ nɛ be, “Nyiawo nɔ agble ŋlɔm, tedziawo nɔ gbe ɖum le wo gbɔ lɔƒo,
Kwasekufika isithunywa kuJobe sathi: Inkabi bezilima labobabhemi besidla emaceleni azo;
15 kasia Sebeatɔwo va dze wo dzi kplɔ wo dzoe. Wowu dɔlawo kple yi eye nye ɖeka koe te ŋu si be mava gblɔe na wò!”
kwasekutheleka amaShebha, akuthatha, atshaya izinceku ngobukhali benkemba, njalo yimi ngedwa kuphela engiphephileyo ukuze ngikubikele.
16 Esi wòganɔ nu ƒom ko la, dɔla bubu va eye wògblɔ be, “Mawu ƒe dzo ge tso dziƒo eye wòfia alẽawo kple dɔlawo, nye ɖeka koe si be mava gblɔe na wò!”
Lesi sisakhuluma, kwafika lesinye, sathi: Umlilo kaNkulunkulu uwile uvela emazulwini, watshisa izimvu lezinceku, waziqeda; njalo yimi ngedwa kuphela engiphephileyo ukuze ngikubikele.
17 Esi mekpɔ ɖe nu le nya la me o la, dɔla bubu va gblɔ be, “Kaldeatɔwo ƒe adzoha etɔ̃ va dze wò kposɔwo dzi eye wolé wo dzoe. Wowu dɔlawo kple yi, nye ɖeka koe te ŋu si be mava gblɔe na wò!”
Lesi sisakhuluma, kwafika lesinye, sathi: AmaKhaladiya amise amaxuku amathathu atheleka phezu kwamakamela, awathatha, atshaya izinceku ngobukhali benkemba, njalo yimi ngedwa kuphela engiphephileyo ukuze ngikubikele.
18 Esi ame sia hã mekpɔ ɖe nu le nya si gblɔm wònɔ me o la, dɔla bubu ge ɖe eme eye wògblɔ be, “Viwò ŋutsuwo kple nyɔnuwo nɔ nu ɖum, nɔ wain nom le wo nɔvi tsitsitɔ ƒe aƒe me.
Lesi sisakhuluma, kwafika lesinye, sathi: Amadodana akho lamadodakazi akho bebesidla benatha iwayini endlini yomfowabo, izibulo.
19 Kasia ya sesẽ aɖe ƒo tso gbegbe va lɔ xɔ la ƒe dzogoe eneawo ɖe me. Tete xɔ la mu dze wo dzi eye woku; nye ɖeka koe te ŋu si be mava gblɔe na wò!”
Khangela-ke, umoya omkhulu wafika uvela ngaphetsheya kwenkangala, watshaya amagumbi womane endlu, yawela phezu kwamajaha, afa; njalo yimi ngedwa kuphela engiphephileyo ukuze ngikubikele.
20 Esi Hiob se esia la, etso hedze eƒe awu ʋlaya eye wòlũ eƒe taɖa. Edze klo de ta agu,
UJobe wasesukuma, wadabula ibhatshi lakhe, waphuca ikhanda lakhe, wawa emhlabathini, wakhonza;
21 hedo gbe ɖa be, “Amamae menɔ hafi do go tso danye ƒe dɔ me, eye amamae manɔ hafi atrɔ adzo. Yehowae na eye Yehowae gaxɔe; woakafu Yehowa ƒe ŋkɔ!”
wasesithi: Ngaphuma ngize esiswini sikamama, njalo ngizabuyela khona ngize; iNkosi yapha, iNkosi ithethe; kalibusiswe ibizo leNkosi.
22 Le esiawo katã me la, Hiob mewɔ nu vɔ̃ to fɔbubu Mawu me be ewɔ nu gbegblẽ o.
Kukho konke lokhu uJobe konanga, kambalelanga ubuwula uNkulunkulu.
