< Ayuba 24 >

1 “Domin me Maɗaukaki ba zai sa ranar shari’a ba? Don me waɗanda suka san shi suke faman samun irin ranakun nan?
Why are times not laid up by the Almighty? And why do not they that know Him see His days?
2 Mugaye suna satar fili ta wurin matsar da duwatsun da aka yi iyaka da su; suna satar dabbobi su kuma yi kiwon su.
There are that remove the landmarks; they violently take away flocks, and feed them.
3 Suna ƙwace wa marayu jakunansu suna kuma ƙwace wa gwauruwa sa don suna binta bashi.
They drive away the ass of the fatherless, they take the widow's ox for a pledge.
4 Suna ture matalauta daga hanya suna kuma sa dole matalautan ƙasar su ɓoye.
They turn the needy out of the way; the poor of the earth hide themselves together.
5 Kamar jakunan jeji a hamada, matalauta suna aikin neman abinci gonaki marasa amfani suna tanada abinci wa’ya’yansu.
Behold, as wild asses in the wilderness they go forth to their work, seeking diligently for food; the desert yieldeth them bread for their children.
6 Suna girbi a gonakin da ba nasu ba, suna yin kala a gonar inabi ta mugaye.
They cut his provender in the field; and they despoil the vineyard of the wicked.
7 Don ba su da tufafi, sukan kwana tsirara; ba su da wani abin da zai rufe su cikin sanyi.
They lie all night naked without clothing, and have no covering in the cold.
8 Sun jiƙe sharkaf da ruwan da yake kwararowa daga duwatsu, sun rungume duwatsu don rashin wurin fakewa.
They are wet with the showers of the mountains, and embrace the rock for want of a shelter.
9 Ana ƙwace jinjiri mai shan mama; ana ƙwace ɗan yaron matalauci don biyan bashi.
There are that pluck the fatherless from the breast, and take a pledge of the poor;
10 Don ba su da tufafi suna yawo tsirara; suna dakon dammunan hatsi amma duk da haka suna cikin shan yunwa.
So that they go about naked without clothing, and being hungry they carry the sheaves;
11 Suna matse zaitun a cikin kunyoyi suna kuma matse ruwan inabi daga’ya’yan inabi, duk da haka suna fama da ƙishi.
They make oil within the rows of these men; they tread their winepresses, and suffer thirst.
12 Ana jin nishin masu mutuwa daga birni, kuma rayukan waɗanda aka ji musu rauni suna kuka suna kira don taimako. Amma bai ba wani laifi ba.
From out of the populous city men groan, and the soul of the wounded crieth out; yet God imputeth it not for unseemliness.
13 “Akwai waɗanda suke yi wa haske tawaye, waɗanda ba su san hanyoyinsa ba ko kuma ba su taɓa bin hanyoyinsa ba.
These are of them that rebel against the light; they know not the ways thereof, nor abide in the paths thereof.
14 Sa’ad da hasken yini ya tafi, mai kisankai yakan tashi; yă je yă kashe matalauta da masu bukata; a cikin dare yake shigowa kamar ɓarawo.
The murderer riseth with the light, to kill the poor and needy; and in the night he is as a thief.
15 Idanun mazinaci suna jiran yamma ta yi sosai; yana tunani cewa, ‘Ba wanda zai gan ni,’ sai kuma yă ɓoye fuskarsa.
The eye also of the adulterer waiteth for the twilight, saying: 'No eye shall see me'; and he putteth a covering on his face.
16 Cikin duhu mutane suna fasa gidaje, amma da rana sukan kulle kansu; ba sa so wani abu yă haɗa su da haske.
In the dark they dig through houses; they shut themselves up in the day-time; they know not the light.
17 Gama dukansu, duhu mai yawa shi ne safiyarsu; suna abokantaka da razanar duhu.
For the shadow of death is to all of them as the morning; for they know the terrors of the shadow of death.
18 “Duk da haka kamar abu marar nauyi suke a kan ruwa; gefen ƙasar da suke, an la’anta ta, yadda ba wanda yake zuwa gonar inabinsu.
He is swift upon the face of the waters; their portion is cursed in the earth; he turneth not by the way of the vineyards.
19 Kamar yadda zafi da fări suke shanye ƙanƙarar da ta narke, haka kabari zai ƙwace waɗanda suka yi zunubi. (Sheol h7585)
Drought and heat consume the snow waters; so doth the nether-world those that have sinned. (Sheol h7585)
20 Waɗanda suka haife su za su manta da su, tsutsotsi za su cinye su; ba za a sāke tunawa da mugaye ba amma an sare su kamar itace.
The womb forgetteth him; the worm feedeth sweetly on him; he shall be no more remembered; and unrighteousness is broken as a tree.
21 Suna cutar macen da ba ta da ɗa, suna nuna wa gwauruwa rashin alheri.
He devoureth the barren that beareth not; and doeth not good to the widow.
22 Amma Allah cikin ikonsa yakan kawar da masu ƙarfi, ko da yake sun yi ƙarfi, ba su da tabbacin rayuwa.
He draweth away the mighty also by his power; he riseth up, and he trusteth not his own life.
23 Mai yiwuwa zai bar su su zauna cikin kwanciyar hankali, amma idanunsa suna kansu.
Though it be given him to be in safety, whereon he resteth, yet His eyes are upon their ways.
24 Sukan samu cin nasara na ɗan lokaci, amma kuma za su ɓace; za su fāɗi a tattara su kamar sauran; za a datse su kamar kan hatsi.
They are exalted for a little while, and they are gone; yea, they are brought low, they are gathered in as all others, and wither as the tops of the ears of corn.
25 “In wannan ba haka ba ne, wane ne zai shaida ƙarya nake yi har yă ƙi yarda da maganata?”
And if it be not so now, who will prove me a liar, and make my speech nothing worth?
