< Ayuba 35 >
Moreover Elihu answered and said,
2 “Ko kana tsammani wannan gaskiya ne? Kana cewa, ‘Ni mai adalci ne a gaban Allah.’
Thinkest thou this to be right, that thou saidst, My righteousness is more than God's?
3 Duk da haka kana tambayarsa cewa, ‘Wace riba nake da ita, kuma mene ne zan samu ta wurin ƙin yin zunubi?’
For thou hast asked of what profit it is unto thee: what do I gain more than if I had sinned?
4 “Zan so in ba ka amsa kai tare da abokanka.
I will reply to thee in words, and to thy companions with thee.
5 Ku ɗaga kai ku dubi sama ku gani; ku dubi gizagizai a samanku.
Look unto the heavens and see; and survey the skies: they are higher than thou.
6 In kun yi zunubi ta yaya wannan zai shafi Allah? In zunubanku sun yi yawa, me wannan zai yi masa?
If thou sinnest, what doest thou against him? If thy transgressions be multiplied, what doest thou unto him?
7 In kuna da adalci, me kuka ba shi, ko kuma me ya karɓa daga hannunku?
If thou be righteous, what givest thou to him? or what doth he receive of thy hand?
8 Muguntarku takan shafi mutum kamar ku ne kaɗai, adalcinku kuma yakan shafi’yan adam ne kaɗai.
Thy wickedness [may affect] a man as thou [art], and thy righteousness a son of man.
9 “Mutane suna kuka don yawan zalunci; suna roƙo don taimako daga hannu mai ƙarfi.
By reason of the multitude of oppressions they cry; they cry out by reason of the arm of the mighty:
10 Amma ba wanda ya ce, ‘Ina Allah wanda ya halicce ni, mai ba da waƙoƙi cikin dare,
But none saith, Where is God my Maker, who giveth songs in the night,
11 wanda ya fi koya mana fiye da dabbobin duniya ya kuma sa muka fi tsuntsayen cikin iska hikima.’
Who teacheth us more than the beasts of the earth, and maketh us wiser than the fowl of the heavens?
12 Ba ya amsawa lokacin da mutane suka yi kira don taimako domin girman kan mugaye.
There they cry, and he answereth not, because of the pride of evil men.
13 Lalle Allah ba ya sauraron roƙonsu na wofi; Maɗaukaki ba ya kula da roƙonsu.
Surely God will not hear vanity, neither will the Almighty regard it.
14 Ta yaya zai saurara sosai ko zai saurara lokacin da kake cewa ba ka ganinsa, cewa ka kawo ƙara a wurinsa kuma dole ka jira shi.
Although thou sayest thou dost not see him, judgment is before him, therefore wait for him.
15 Kuma ka ce, ba ya ba da horo cikin fushinsa ko kaɗan ba ya kula da mugunta.
But now, because he hath not visited in his anger, doth not [Job] know [his] great arrogancy?
16 Saboda haka Ayuba ya buɗe baki yana magana barkatai; yana ta yawan magana ba tare da sani ba.”
For Job hath opened his mouth in vanity, and made words abundant without knowledge.
