Ayuba 11
1 Sa’an nan Zofar mutumin Na’ama ya amsa,
Then Zophar the Naamathite answered, and said,
2 “Duk surutun nan ba za a amsa maka ba? Ko mai surutun nan marar laifi ne?
Should not the multitude of words be answered? And should a man full of talk be justified?
3 Ko maganganun nan naka marasa amfani za su sa mutane su yi maka shiru? Ba wanda zai kwaɓe ka lokacin da kake faɗar maganar da ba daidai ba?
Should thy boastings make men hold their peace? And when thou mock, shall no man make thee ashamed?
4 Ka ce wa Allah, ‘Abin da na gaskata ba laifi ba ne kuma ni mai tsabta ne a gabanka.’
For thou say, My doctrine is pure, and I am clean in thine eyes.
5 Da ma Allah zai yi magana, yă buɗe baki yă faɗi wani abin da ka yi da ba daidai ba
But O that God would speak, and open his lips against thee,
6 yă kuma buɗe maka asirin hikima, gama hikima ta gaskiya tana da gefe biyu. Ka san wannan, Allah ya riga ya manta da waɗansu zunubanka.
and that he would show thee the secrets of wisdom! For he is manifold in understanding. Know therefore that God exacts of thee less than thine iniquity deserves.
7 “Ko za ka iya gane al’amuran Allah? Ko za ka iya gane girman asirin Maɗaukaki?
Can thou find out God by searching? Can thou find out the Almighty to perfection?
It is high as heaven; what can thou do? Deeper than Sheol; what can thou know? (Sheol h7585)
9 Tsayinsu ya fi tsawon duniya da kuma fāɗin teku.
The measure of it is longer than the earth, and broader than the sea.
10 “In ya zo ya kulle ka a kurkuku ya ce kai mai laifi ne, wa zai hana shi?
If he passes through, and shuts up, and all to judgment, then who can hinder him?
11 Ba shakka yana iya gane mutanen da suke marasa gaskiya; kuma in ya ga abin da yake mugu, ba ya kula ne?
For he knows false men. He also sees iniquity. Will he not then consider it?
12 Amma daƙiƙin mutum ba ya taɓa zama mai hikima kamar dai a ce ba a taɓa haihuwar ɗan aholaki horarre.
But vain man is void of understanding. Yea, man is born as a wild donkey's colt.
13 “Duk da haka in ka miƙa masa zuciyarka, ka kuma miƙa hannuwanka gare shi,
If thou set thy heart aright, and stretch out thy hands toward him,
14 in ka kawar da zunubin da yake hannunka, ba ka bar zunubi ya kasance tare da kai ba
if iniquity is in thy hand, put it far away, and let not unrighteousness dwell in thy tents.
15 shi ne za ka iya ɗaga fuskarka ba tare da jin kunya ba; za ka tsaya da ƙarfi kuma ba za ka ji tsoro ba.
Surely then thou shall lift up thy face without spot. Yea, thou shall be steadfast, and shall not fear.
16 Ba shakka za ka manta da wahalolinka, za ka tuna da su kamar yadda ruwa yake wucewa.
For thou shall forget thy misery. Thou shall remember it as waters that are passed away.
17 Rayuwarka za tă fi hasken rana haske, duhu kuma zai zama kamar safiya.
And thy life shall be clearer than the noonday. Though there be darkness, it shall be as the morning.
18 Za ka zauna lafiya, domin akwai bege; za ka duba kewaye da kai ka huta cikin kwanciyar rai.
And thou shall be secure, because there is hope. Yea, thou shall search about thee, and shall take thy rest in safety.
19 Za ka kwanta, ba wanda zai sa ka ji tsoro, da yawa za su zo neman taimako a wurinka.
Also thou shall lie down, and none shall make thee afraid. Yea, many shall correspond with thee.
20 Amma idanun mugaye ba za su iya gani ba, kuma ba za su iya tserewa ba; begensu zai zama na mutuwa.”
But the eyes of the wicked shall fail, and they shall have no way to flee. And their hope shall be the giving up of the spirit.
