Ἰώβ 34
1 ὑπολαβὼν δὲ Ελιους λέγει
Pamenepo Elihu anapitiriza kuyankhula kuti,
2 ἀκούσατέ μου σοφοί ἐπιστάμενοι ἐνωτίζεσθε τὸ καλόν
“Imvani mawu anga, inu anthu anzeru; tcherani khutu inu anthu ophunzira.
3 ὅτι οὖς λόγους δοκιμάζει καὶ λάρυγξ γεύεται βρῶσιν
Pakuti khutu limayesa mawu monga momwe mʼkamwa mumalawira chakudya.
4 κρίσιν ἑλώμεθα ἑαυτοῖς γνῶμεν ἀνὰ μέσον ἑαυτῶν ὅ τι καλόν
Tsono tiyeni tizindikire chomwe chili choyenera; tiphunzire pamodzi chomwe chili chabwino.
5 ὅτι εἴρηκεν Ιωβ δίκαιός εἰμι ὁ κύριος ἀπήλλαξέν μου τὸ κρίμα
“Yobu akunena kuti, ‘Ndine wosalakwa, koma Mulungu akukana kundiweruza molungama.
6 ἐψεύσατο δὲ τῷ κρίματί μου βίαιον τὸ βέλος μου ἄνευ ἀδικίας
Ngakhale ndine wolungama mtima, akundiyesa wabodza; ngakhale ndine wosachimwa, mivi yake ikundichititsa mabala osachiritsidwa.’
7 τίς ἀνὴρ ὥσπερ Ιωβ πίνων μυκτηρισμὸν ὥσπερ ὕδωρ
Kodi munthu wofanana ndi Yobu ndani, amene amayankhula zamwano ngati akumwa madzi?
8 οὐχ ἁμαρτὼν οὐδὲ ἀσεβήσας ἢ ὁδοῦ κοινωνήσας μετὰ ποιούντων τὰ ἄνομα τοῦ πορευθῆναι μετὰ ἀσεβῶν
Iye amayenda ndi anthu ochita zoyipa; amayanjana ndi anthu oyipa mtima.
9 μὴ γὰρ εἴπῃς ὅτι οὐκ ἔσται ἐπισκοπὴ ἀνδρός καὶ ἐπισκοπὴ αὐτῷ παρὰ κυρίου
Paja iye amanena kuti, ‘Munthu sapindula kanthu poyesetsa kukondweretsa Mulungu.’
10 διό συνετοὶ καρδίας ἀκούσατέ μου μή μοι εἴη ἔναντι κυρίου ἀσεβῆσαι καὶ ἔναντι παντοκράτορος ταράξαι τὸ δίκαιον
“Tsono mverani ine, inu anthu anzeru zomvetsa zinthu. Mulungu sangachite choyipa ndi pangʼono pomwe, Wamphamvuzonse sangathe kuchita cholakwa.
11 ἀλλὰ ἀποδιδοῖ ἀνθρώπῳ καθὰ ποιεῖ ἕκαστος αὐτῶν καὶ ἐν τρίβῳ ἀνδρὸς εὑρήσει αὐτόν
Iye amamubwezera munthu molingana ndi ntchito zake; Mulungu amabweretsa pa munthu molingana ndi zomwe amachita.
12 οἴῃ δὲ τὸν κύριον ἄτοπα ποιήσειν ἢ ὁ παντοκράτωρ ταράξει κρίσιν
Nʼchosayembekezeka kuti Mulungu achite cholakwa, kuti Wamphamvuzonse apotoze chilungamo.
13 ὃς ἐποίησεν τὴν γῆν τίς δέ ἐστιν ὁ ποιῶν τὴν ὑπ’ οὐρανὸν καὶ τὰ ἐνόντα πάντα
Kodi anapatsa Mulungu udindo wolamulira dziko lapansi ndani? Ndani anayika Mulungu kuti azilamulira dziko lonse?
14 εἰ γὰρ βούλοιτο συνέχειν καὶ τὸ πνεῦμα παρ’ αὐτῷ κατασχεῖν
Mulungu akanakhala ndi maganizo oti achotse mzimu wake ndi mpweya wake,
15 τελευτήσει πᾶσα σὰρξ ὁμοθυμαδόν πᾶς δὲ βροτὸς εἰς γῆν ἀπελεύσεται ὅθεν καὶ ἐπλάσθη
zamoyo zonse zikanawonongekeratu ndipo munthu akanabwerera ku fumbi.
16 εἰ δὲ μὴ νουθετῇ ἄκουε ταῦτα ἐνωτίζου φωνὴν ῥημάτων
“Ngati ndinu omvetsa zinthu, imvani izi; mvetserani zimene ndikunena.
17 ἰδὲ σὺ τὸν μισοῦντα ἄνομα καὶ τὸν ὀλλύντα τοὺς πονηροὺς ὄντα αἰώνιον δίκαιον
Kodi Mulungu wodana ndi chilungamo angathe kukhala wolamulira? Kodi iwe ungathe kuweruza Wolungama ndi Wamphamvuyo?
18 ἀσεβὴς ὁ λέγων βασιλεῖ παρανομεῖς ἀσεβέστατε τοῖς ἄρχουσιν
Kodi si Iye amene amanena kwa mafumu kuti, ‘Ndinu opanda pake,’ ndipo amawuza anthu otchuka, ‘Ndinu oyipa,’
19 ὃς οὐκ ἐπῃσχύνθη πρόσωπον ἐντίμου οὐδὲ οἶδεν τιμὴν θέσθαι ἁδροῖς θαυμασθῆναι πρόσωπα αὐτῶν
Iye sakondera akalonga ndipo salemekeza anthu olemera kupambana osauka, pakuti onsewa ndi ntchito ya manja ake?
20 κενὰ δὲ αὐτοῖς ἀποβήσεται τὸ κεκραγέναι καὶ δεῖσθαι ἀνδρός ἐχρήσαντο γὰρ παρανόμως ἐκκλινομένων ἀδυνάτων
Iwo amafa mwadzidzidzi, pakati pa usiku; anthu amachita mantha ndipo amamwalira; munthu wamphamvu amachotsedwa popanda dzanja la munthu.
21 αὐτὸς γὰρ ὁρατής ἐστιν ἔργων ἀνθρώπων λέληθεν δὲ αὐτὸν οὐδὲν ὧν πράσσουσιν
“Maso a Mulungu amapenya njira za munthu; amaona mayendedwe ake onse.
22 οὐδὲ ἔσται τόπος τοῦ κρυβῆναι τοὺς ποιοῦντας τὰ ἄνομα
Palibe malo obisika kapena a mdima wandiweyani kumene anthu ochita zoyipa angabisaleko.
23 ὅτι οὐκ ἐπ’ ἄνδρα θήσει ἔτι ὁ γὰρ κύριος πάντας ἐφορᾷ
Mulungu sasowa kuti apitirizebe kufufuza munthu, kuti abwere pamaso pake kudzaweruzidwa.
24 ὁ καταλαμβάνων ἀνεξιχνίαστα ἔνδοξά τε καὶ ἐξαίσια ὧν οὐκ ἔστιν ἀριθμός
Popanda kufufuza, Iye amawononga anthu amphamvu ndipo mʼmalo mwawo amayikamo ena.
25 ὁ γνωρίζων αὐτῶν τὰ ἔργα καὶ στρέψει νύκτα καὶ ταπεινωθήσονται
Pakuti Iyeyo amadziwa bwino ntchito zawo amawagubuduza usiku ndipo amatswanyika.
26 ἔσβεσεν δὲ ἀσεβεῖς ὁρατοὶ δὲ ἐναντίον αὐτοῦ
Iye amawalanga chifukwa cha kuyipa kwawo, pamalo pamene aliyense akuwaona;
27 ὅτι ἐξέκλιναν ἐκ νόμου θεοῦ δικαιώματα δὲ αὐτοῦ οὐκ ἐπέγνωσαν
Chifukwa anasiya kumutsata ndipo sasamaliranso njira zake zonse.
28 τοῦ ἐπαγαγεῖν ἐπ’ αὐτὸν κραυγὴν πένητος καὶ κραυγὴν πτωχῶν εἰσακούσεται
Anachititsa amphawi kuti kulira kwawo kufike pamaso pake, kotero Iyeyo anamva kulira kwa amphawiwo.
29 καὶ αὐτὸς ἡσυχίαν παρέξει καὶ τίς καταδικάσεται καὶ κρύψει πρόσωπον καὶ τίς ὄψεται αὐτόν καὶ κατὰ ἔθνους καὶ κατὰ ἀνθρώπου ὁμοῦ
Koma ngati Mulungu akhala chete, ndani angamunene kuti walakwa? Akabisa nkhope yake, ndani angathe kumupenyabe? Komatu ndiye amene amayangʼana za munthu komanso mtundu wa anthu,
30 βασιλεύων ἄνθρωπον ὑποκριτὴν ἀπὸ δυσκολίας λαοῦ
kuti asalamuliridwe ndi anthu osapembedza, kuti asatchere anthu misampha.
31 ὅτι πρὸς τὸν ἰσχυρὸν ὁ λέγων εἴληφα οὐκ ἐνεχυράσω
“Mwina munthu atanena kwa Mulungu kuti, ‘Ndine wolakwa koma sindidzachimwanso,
32 ἄνευ ἐμαυτοῦ ὄψομαι σὺ δεῖξόν μοι εἰ ἀδικίαν ἠργασάμην οὐ μὴ προσθήσω
ndiphunzitseni zimene sindikuziona ngati ndachita choyipa, sindidzachitanso.’
33 μὴ παρὰ σοῦ ἀποτείσει αὐτήν ὅτι ἀπώσῃ ὅτι σὺ ἐκλέξῃ καὶ οὐκ ἐγώ καὶ τί ἔγνως λάλησον
Kodi Mulungu akuweruzeni potsata mmene inuyo mukuganizira, pamene inu mukukana kulapa? Chisankho nʼchanu, osati changa; tsono ndiwuzeni zomwe mukudziwa.
34 διὸ συνετοὶ καρδίας ἐροῦσιν ταῦτα ἀνὴρ δὲ σοφὸς ἀκήκοέν μου τὸ ῥῆμα
“Anthu omvetsa zinthu adzakambirana, anthu anzeru amene akundimva adzandiwuza kuti,
35 Ιωβ δὲ οὐκ ἐν συνέσει ἐλάλησεν τὰ δὲ ῥήματα αὐτοῦ οὐκ ἐν ἐπιστήμῃ
‘Yobu akuyankhula mopanda nzeru; mawu ake ndi opanda fundo.’
36 οὐ μὴν δὲ ἀλλὰ μάθε Ιωβ μὴ δῷς ἔτι ἀνταπόκρισιν ὥσπερ οἱ ἄφρονες
Aa, kunali bwino Yobu akanayesedwa mpaka kumapeto chifukwa choyankha ngati munthu woyipa!
37 ἵνα μὴ προσθῶμεν ἐφ’ ἁμαρτίαις ἡμῶν ἀνομία δὲ ἐφ’ ἡμῖν λογισθήσεται πολλὰ λαλούντων ῥήματα ἐναντίον τοῦ κυρίου
Pa tchimo lake amawonjezerapo kuwukira; amawomba mʼmanja mwake monyoza pakati pathu, ndipo amachulukitsa mawu otsutsana ndi Mulungu.”
