< Job 34 >

1 Mgbe ahụ Elihu sịrị:
And Helyu pronounside, and spak also these thingis,
2 “Nụrụ okwu m, unu ndị amamihe; gee m ntị unu ndị ikom nwere mmụta.
Wise men, here ye my wordis, and lerned men, herkne ye me; for the eere preueth wordis,
3 Ntị na-anwale okwu dịka ire si anụ ụtọ ihe oriri.
and the throte demeth metis bi taast.
4 Ka anyị chọpụtara onwe anyị ihe ziri ezi; ka anyị nọkọta mụta ihe dị mma.
Chese we doom to vs; and se we among vs, what is the betere.
5 “Job na-asị, ‘Abụ m onye ezi omume, ma Chineke na-anapụ m ikpe ziri ezi.
For Job seide, Y am iust, and God hath distried my doom.
6 Ọ bụ eziokwu na aka m dị ọcha ma a na-ahụta m dịka onye ụgha; ọ bụ eziokwu na ikpe amaghị m ma ọnya na-enweghị ngwọta ka àkụ ya na-enye m.’
For whi lesynge is in demynge me, and myn arowe is violent with out ony synne.
7 Olee nwoke dịka Job, nke na-aṅụ ịkwa emo dịka mmiri?
Who is a man, as Joob is, that drynkith scornyng as watir?
8 Ya na ndị na-eme ajọ ihe bụ enyi, ya na ndị ajọ omume na-emekọkwa ihe.
that goith with men worchynge wickidnesse, and goith with vnfeithful men?
9 Nʼihi na ọ na-asị, ‘Ọ dịghị uru dị ya na mmadụ na-achọ ime ihe na-atọ Chineke ụtọ.’
For he seide, A man schal not plese God, yhe, thouy he renneth with God.
10 “Ya mere, geenụ m ntị, unu ndị ikom nwere nghọta. Ya bụrụ ihe dị anya nʼebe Chineke nọ, bụ ime ajọ omume, bụrụkwa ihe dị anya nʼebe Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile nọ, bụ ime ihe na-ezighị ezi.
Therfor ye men hertid, `that is, vndurstonde, here ye me; vnpite, `ethir cruelte, be fer fro God, and wickidnesse fro Almyyti God.
11 Ọ na-akwụghachi onye ọbụla dịka ihe o mere si dị, ọ na-ewetara mmadụ dịka omume ya kwesiri.
For he schal yelde the werk of man to hym; and bi the weies of ech man he schal restore to hym.
12 Ọ bụ ihe a na-ekwesighị iche nʼuche na Chineke pụrụ ime ihe na-ezighị ezi, na Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile ga-ekpe ikpe nʼezighị ezi.
For verili God schal not condempne with out cause; nether Almyyti God schal distrie doom.
13 Onye họpụtara ya ịchị ụwa? Onye mere ya onye nlekọta ụwa niile?
What othere man hath he ordeyned on the lond? ether whom hath he set on the world, which he made?
14 Ọ bụrụ na ọ bụ ebumnuche ya iweghachi mmụọ ya na nkuume ya,
If God dressith his herte to hym, he schal drawe to hym silf his spirit and blast.
15 mmadụ niile ga-alakọta nʼiyi, mmadụ niile ga-alaghachikwa nʼaja.
Ech fleisch schal faile togidere; `and a man schal turne ayen in to aisch.
16 “Ọ bụrụ na i nwere nghọta, nụrụ nke a; gee ntị nʼokwu m.
Therfor if thou hast vndurstondyng, here thou that that is seid, and herkne the vois of my speche.
17 Ọ pụrụ ịchị bụ onye ahụ kpọrọ ikpe ziri ezi asị? Ị ga-ama Onye ezi omume na onye dị ike ikpe?
Whether he that loueth not doom may be maad hool? and hou condempnest thou so myche him, that is iust?
18 Ọ bụghị ya na-agwa ndị eze okwu sị, ‘Unu abaghị uru,’ ma na-agwakwa ndị a mara aha ha sị, ‘Unu bụ ndị ajọ omume.’
Which seith to the kyng, Thou art apostata; which clepith the duykis vnpitouse, `ethir vnfeithful.
19 Onye na-adịghị ekpe ikpe mmegide nye ụmụ ndị ikom eze, onye na-adịghị emenyere ndị ọgaranya, ma megbuo ndị ogbenye, nʼihi na ha niile bụ ọrụ aka ya.
`Which takith not the persoones of princes, nether knew a tyraunt, whanne he stryuede ayens a pore man; for alle men ben the werk of hise hondis.
20 Nʼotu ntabi anya, ha na-anwụ nʼime etiti abalị; ndị ahụ na-ama jijiji ma gabiga; a na-ewezugakwa ndị dị ike ma ọ bụghị site nʼaka mmadụ.
Thei schulen die sudeynli, and at mydnyyt puplis schulen be troblid, `ethir schulen be bowid, as othere bookis han; and schulen passe, and schulen take `awei `a violent man with out hond.
21 “Anya ya na-elekwasị ụzọ niile nke ụmụ mmadụ; ọ na-ahụkwa nzọ ụkwụ ha niile.
For the iyen of God ben on the weies of men, and biholdith alle goyngis of hem.
22 Ọ dịghị ọchịchịrị dị, ọ dịghịkwa oke ọchịchịrị dị, ebe ndị na-eme ajọ ihe pụrụ izo.
No derknessis ben, and no schadewe of deeth is, that thei, that worchen wickidnesse, be hid there;
23 Ọ dịghị mkpa ọ dịịrị Chineke ịga nʼihu inyocha ụmụ mmadụ, nke mere na ha ga-abịa nʼihu ya maka ikpe ikpe.
for it is `no more in the power of man, that he come to God in to doom.
24 Na-ajụghị ajụjụ Chineke na-akụtu ndị a maara aha ha ma were ndị ọzọ dochie nʼọnọdụ ha.
God schal al to-breke many men and vnnoumbrable; and schal make othere men to stonde for hem.
25 Nʼihi na ọ na-agụkọ ọrụ ha niile, ọ na-achụpụ ha nʼabalị mee ka ha ghọọ ndị e gwepịara egwepịa.
For he knowith the werkis of hem; therfor he schal brynge yn niyt, and thei schulen be al to-brokun.
26 Nʼebe mmadụ niile ga-ahụ ha ka ọ na-ata ha ahụhụ nʼihi ajọ omume ha,
He smoot hem, as vnpitouse men, in the place of seinge men.
27 nʼihi na ha sitere nʼiso ya wezuga onwe ha, ha enweghịkwa uche ilebanye anya nʼụzọ ya ọbụla.
Whiche yeden awei fro hym bi `castyng afore, and nolden vndurstonde alle hise weies.
28 Ha mere ka iti mkpu akwa nke ndị ogbenye ruo ya ntị, nke mere na ọ nụrụ akwa ndị nọ na mkpa.
That thei schulden make the cry of a nedi man to come to hym, and that he schulde here the vois of pore men.
29 Ma ọ bụrụ na ọ gba nkịtị, onye ga-ama ya ikpe? Ọ bụrụ na o zoo ihu ya, onye pụrụ ịhụ ya? Ma ya onwe ya na-achị isi nʼebe mmadụ na mba nọ,
For whanne he grauntith pees, who is that condempneth? Sithen he hidith his cheer, who is that seeth hym? And on folkis and on alle men `he hath power `to do siche thingis.
30 igbochi nwoke na-adịghị atụ egwu Chineke ịchị obodo, ka ọ gharakwa ịbụ ihe ọnya nye ndị mmadụ.
Which makith `a man ypocrite to regne, for the synnes of the puple.
31 “Ọ bụrụ na mmadụ a sị Chineke, ‘Abụ m onye ikpe mara ma agaghị m emehie kwa ọzọ.
Therfor for Y haue spoke to God, also Y schal not forbede thee.
32 Biko, zi m ihe ndị ahụ m na-apụghị ịhụ; ọ bụrụ na m emehiela, agaghị m emekwa ya ọzọ.’
If Y erride, teche thou me; if Y spak wickidnesse, Y schal no more adde.
33 Chineke ọ ga-akwụghachi gị ụgwọ ọrụ site na mkpebi gị mgbe ị jụrụ ichegharị? Gị onwe gị ga-ekpebi, ọ bụghị mụ; ya mere gwa m ihe ị mara.
Whether God axith that wickidnesse of thee, for it displeside thee? For thou hast bigunne to speke, and not Y; that if thou knowist ony thing betere, speke thou.
34 “Ndị ikom ndị nwere nghọta na-ekwu si, ndị amamihe nụrụ okwu m na-asị m,
Men vndurstondynge, speke to me; and a wise man, here me.
35 ‘Job na-ekwu okwu dịka onye na-amaghị ihe; okwu ya dị ka nke onye na-enweghị uche.’
Forsothe Joob spak folili, and hise wordis sownen not techyng.
36 Ọ ga-adị nnọọ mma ma a sị na a nwaa Job ruo nsọtụ maka ọsịsa ya dịka nke ajọ mmadụ!
My fadir, be Joob preuede `til to the ende; ceesse thou not fro the man of wickidnesse,
37 Ọ na-atụkwasị nnupu isi nʼelu mmehie ya; na-akụ aka nʼetiti anyị nʼụzọ ịkwa emo, ma werekwa okwu nkwulu bara ụba megide Chineke.”
`that addith blasfemye ouer hise synnes. Be he constreyned among vs in the meene tyme; and thanne bi hise wordis stire he God to the doom.
