1 Nake Jehova agĩcookeria Ayubu ũhoro arĩ kĩhuhũkanio-inĩ, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ:
Forsothe the Lord answeride fro the whirlewynd to Joob,
2 “Nũũ ũyũ ũrekĩra kĩrĩra gĩakwa nduma na ciugo itarĩ na ũmenyo?
and seide, Who is this man, wlappynge sentences with vnwise wordis?
3 Wĩhotore ta mũndũ mũrũme; nĩngũkũũria ciũria, nawe ũkĩnjookerie.
Girde thou as a man thi leendis; Y schal axe thee, and answere thou to me.
4 “Warĩ kũ rĩrĩa ndaakire mũthingi wa thĩ? Njĩĩra akorwo ũrĩ na ũũgĩ wa kũmenya.
Where were thou, whanne Y settide the foundementis of erthe? schewe thou to me, if thou hast vndurstondyng.
5 Nũũ wathimire mũigana wayo? Ti-itherũ wee nĩũũĩ! Nũũ watambũrũkirie rũrigi rwa gũthima igũrũ rĩayo?
Who settide mesures therof, if thou knowist? ethir who stretchide forth a lyne theronne?
6 Mĩthingi yayo yahandirwo igũrũ rĩa kĩĩ, kana nũũ wahaandire ihiga rĩayo rĩa koine,
On what thing ben the foundementis therof maad fast? ether who sente doun the corner stoon therof,
7 hĩndĩ ĩrĩa njata cia rũciinĩ ciainire hamwe, na araika othe makĩanĩrĩra nĩ gũkena?
whanne the morew sterris herieden me togidere, and alle the sones of God sungun ioyfuli?
8 “Nũũ wahingĩrĩirie iria na mĩrango rĩrĩa rĩatumũkire kuuma nda,
Who closide togidere the see with doris, whanne it brak out comynge forth as of the wombe?
9 rĩrĩa ndatuire matu nguo ciarĩo, na ngĩrĩoha nduma nene ta taama warĩo,
Whanne Y settide a cloude the hilyng therof, and Y wlappide it with derknesse, as with clothis of yong childhed.
10 rĩrĩa ndarĩkĩrĩire mĩhaka, na ngĩrĩhingĩra na mĩrango yarĩo, na ngĩĩkĩra mĩgĩĩko handũ hayo,
Y cumpasside it with my termes, and Y settide a barre, and doris;
11 rĩrĩa ndoigire atĩrĩ, ‘Ũkinyage o haha na ndũkanahakĩre; makũmbĩ maku macio metĩĩi-rĩ, hau nĩho marĩĩkinyaga’?
and Y seide, `Til hidur thou schalt come, and thou schalt not go forth ferthere; and here thou schalt breke togidere thi bolnynge wawis.
12 “Kuuma o kĩambĩrĩria-rĩ, ũrĩ waathana atĩ rũciinĩ rũgĩe ho, kana ũkĩonereria ũtheri wa rũciinĩ harĩa ũkuumĩrĩra,
Whethir aftir thi birthe thou comaundist to the bigynnyng of dai, and schewidist to the morewtid his place?
13 nĩguo ũhote kũnyiita thĩ na mĩthia yaguo, nao arĩa aaganu maribaribwo moime kuo?
Whethir thou heldist schakynge togidere the laste partis of erthe, and schakedist awei wickid men therfro?
14 Thĩ ĩhaanaga ta rĩũmba rĩhũrĩtwo mũhũũri; mũonekere wayo ũtariĩ ta mũhianĩre wa nguo.
A seeling schal be restorid as cley, and it schal stonde as a cloth.
15 Andũ arĩa aaganu nĩmaimagwo ũtheri wao, na guoko kwao kũrĩa kuoetwo na igũrũ gũkoinwo.
The liyt of wickid men schal be takun awey fro hem, and an hiy arm schal be brokun.
16 “Ũrĩ wathiĩ rũgendo nginya kũrĩa iria rĩtherũkagĩra, kana ũgaceera itwe-inĩ cia ndia kũrĩa kũriku mũno?
Whethir thou entridist in to the depthe of the see, and walkidist in the laste partis of the occian?
17 Ũrĩ wonio ihingo cia gĩkuũ? Ũrĩ wona ihingo cia kĩĩruru gĩa gĩkuũ?
Whether the yatis of deeth ben openyd to thee, and `siest thou the derk doris?
18 Ũrĩ wamenya ũnene wa wariĩ wa thĩ? Njĩĩra akorwo nĩũũĩ maũndũ macio mothe.
Whethir thou hast biholde the brede of erthe? Schewe thou to me, if thou knowist alle thingis,
19 “Njĩra ya gũthiĩ kũrĩa ũtheri ũtũũraga nĩĩrĩkũ? Nayo nduma ĩikaraga kũ?
in what weie the liyt dwellith, and which is the place of derknesse;
20 No ũcitware gwacio? Nĩũũĩ tũcĩra twa gũthiĩ kũrĩa itũũraga?
that thou lede ech thing to hise termes, and thou vndurstonde the weies of his hows.
21 Ti-itherũ wee nĩũũĩ, nĩgũkorwo warĩ mũciare! Wee-rĩ, nĩũtũũrĩte mĩaka mĩingĩ!
Wistist thou thanne, that thou schuldist be borun, and knew thou the noumbre of thi daies?
22 “Ũrĩ watoonya makũmbĩ kũrĩa tharunji ĩigĩtwo, kana ũkĩona makũmbĩ kũrĩa mbura ya mbembe ĩigĩtwo,
Whethir thou entridist in to the tresours of snow, ether biheldist thou the tresours of hail?
23 o icio njigĩte nĩ ũndũ wa mahinda ma thĩĩna, ngaciiga nĩ ũndũ wa matukũ ma mbaara na ma kũrũa.
whiche thingis Y made redy in to the tyme of an enemy, in to the dai of fiytyng and of batel.
24 Njĩra ya gũthiĩ kũrĩa ũtheri ũgayanagĩrio nĩĩrĩkũ, kana ya gũthiĩ kũrĩa rũhuho rwa irathĩro rũhurunjagĩrwo gũkũ thĩ?
Bi what weie is the liyt spred abrood, heete is departid on erthe?
25 Nũũ wenjagĩra mbura ya kĩboboto mũtaro wa kũgerera, kana agatemera mbura ya marurumĩ njĩra,
Who yaf cours to the strongeste reyn,
26 nĩguo mbura yure bũrũri ũtatũũraga mũndũ, na yure werũ kũrĩa gũtarĩ mũndũ,
and weie of the thundur sownynge? That it schulde reyne on the erthe with out man in desert, where noon of deedli men dwellith?
27 nĩguo ĩhũũnagie kũu gũtiganĩrie gũgakira ihooru, na ĩtũme kũmere nyeki?
That it schulde fille a lond with out weie and desolat, and schulde brynge forth greene eerbis?
28 Mbura nĩĩrĩ ithe? Nũũ mũciari wa matata ma ime?
Who is fadir of reyn, ether who gendride the dropis of deew?
29 Tharunji yumaga nda ya ũ? Nũũ ũciaraga mbaa ĩrĩa yumaga igũrũ,
Of whos wombe yede out iys, and who gendride frost fro heuene?
30 rĩrĩa maaĩ momaga ta ihiga, rĩrĩa maaĩ marĩa marĩ igũrũ wa iria magwatana?
Watris ben maad hard in the licnesse of stoon, and the ouer part of occian is streyned togidere.
31 “Wee-rĩ, wahota kuohania njata iria thaka cia Kĩrĩmĩra? Wahota kuohora mĩkanda ya njata iria ciĩtagwo Karaũ?
Whether thou schalt mowe ioyne togidere schynynge sterris Pliades, ethir thou schalt mowe distrie the cumpas of Arturis?
32 Wahota kuumagaragia njata iria ciĩtagwo Mazarothu o mahinda maacio maakinya, kana wahota gũtongoria Nduba na ciana ciayo?
Whether thou bryngist forth Lucifer, `that is, dai sterre, in his tyme, and makist euene sterre to rise on the sones of erthe?
33 Nĩũũĩ mawatho ma igũrũ? No ũhote kũhaanda wathani wa Ngai ũrũme gũkũ thĩ?
Whether thou knowist the ordre of heuene, and schalt sette the resoun therof in erthe?
34 “Wahota kwanĩrĩra nginya mũgambo waku ũkinye matu-inĩ nĩguo kuure wĩhumbĩre na kĩguũ kĩa maaĩ?
Whethir thou schalt reise thi vois in to a cloude, and the fersnesse of watris schal hile thee?
35 Wee nĩwe ũtũmaga heni ithiĩ na njĩra ciacio? Nĩikũrehagĩra ũhoro igakwĩra atĩ, ‘Tũrĩ haha’?
Whethir thou schalt sende leitis, and tho schulen go, and tho schulen turne ayen, and schulen seie to thee, We ben present?
36 Nũũ waheire ngoro ũũgĩ, kana akĩhe meciiria ũmenyo?
Who puttide wisdoom in the entrailis of man, ethir who yaf vndurstondyng to the cok?
37 Nũũ ũrĩ na ũũgĩ wa gũtara matu? Nũũ ũngĩhota kũinamia ndigithũ cia maaĩ cia igũrũ
Who schal telle out the resoun of heuenes, and who schal make acordyng of heuene to sleep?
38 rĩrĩa rũkũngũ rwatondora, nayo ndoro ĩkooma ĩkanyiitana?
Whanne dust was foundid in the erthe, and clottis weren ioyned togidere?
39 “Nĩwe ũguĩmagĩra mũrũũthi wa mũgoma wone gĩa kũrĩa, kana nĩwe ũniinagĩra mĩrũũthi ngʼaragu
Whether thou schalt take prey to the lionesse, and schalt fille the soulis of hir whelpis,
40 rĩrĩa ĩkomereire imamo-inĩ ciayo, kana rĩrĩa ĩikaraga yoheirie nyamũ ihinga-inĩ?
whanne tho liggen in caues, and aspien in dennes?
41 Nũũ ũheaga ihuru irio rĩrĩa tũcui twarĩo tũgũkaĩra Mũrungu tũkĩũrũũraga nĩ kwaga irio?
Who makith redi for the crowe his mete, whanne hise briddis crien to God, and wandren aboute, for tho han not meetis?
