Ayuba 35
1 Sai Elihu ya ce,
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 thy right, or sayest thou: 'I am righteousness before God',
3 Duk da haka kana tambayarsa cewa, ‘Wace riba nake da ita, kuma mene ne zan samu ta wurin ƙin yin zunubi?’
That thou inquirest: 'What advantage will it be unto Thee?' And: 'What profit shall I have, more than if I had sinned?'
4 “Zan so in ba ka amsa kai tare da abokanka.
I will give thee answer, and 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 behold the skies, which 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 hast sinned, what doest thou against Him? And 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 Him? Or what receiveth He of thy hand?
8 Muguntarku takan shafi mutum kamar ku ne kaɗai, adalcinku kuma yakan shafi’yan adam ne kaɗai.
Thy wickedness concerneth 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 out; they cry for help 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 fowls of heaven?'
12 Ba ya amsawa lokacin da mutane suka yi kira don taimako domin girman kan mugaye.
There they cry, but none giveth answer, 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.
Yea, when thou sayest thou canst not see Him — the cause is before Him; therefore wait thou for Him.
15 Kuma ka ce, ba ya ba da horo cikin fushinsa ko kaɗan ba ya kula da mugunta.
And now, is it for nought that He punished in His anger? And hath He not full knowledge of arrogance?
16 Saboda haka Ayuba ya buɗe baki yana magana barkatai; yana ta yawan magana ba tare da sani ba.”
But Job doth open his mouth in vanity; he multiplieth words without knowledge.
