< Job 35 >

1 Mgbe ahụ, Elihu sịrị:
וַיַּעַן אֱלִיהוּ וַיֹּאמַֽר׃
2 “Ị na-eche na nke a ziri ezi? Ị sịrị, ‘Na m ziri ezi ọ bụghị Chineke.’
הֲזֹאת חָשַׁבְתָּ לְמִשְׁפָּט אָמַרְתָּ צִדְקִי מֵאֵֽל׃
3 Nʼagbanyeghị ihe ndị a, ị na-ajụ ya si, ‘Uru gịnị ka ọ baara m, gịnị bụ uru m ma ọ bụrụ na emehieghị m?’
כִּֽי־תֹאמַר מַה־יִּסְכׇּן־לָךְ מָה־אֹעִיל מֵחַטָּאתִֽי׃
4 “Ọ ga-amasị m ịzaghachi gị, zaghachikwa ndị enyi gị na ha nọ.
אֲנִי אֲשִֽׁיבְךָ מִלִּין וְֽאֶת־רֵעֶיךָ עִמָּֽךְ׃
5 Lelie anya na eluigwe ma hụkwa. Legide mbara igwe na igwe oji niile, nke dị anya karịa gị.
הַבֵּט שָׁמַיִם וּרְאֵה וְשׁוּר שְׁחָקִים גָּבְהוּ מִמֶּֽךָּ׃
6 Ọ bụrụ na i mehie, olee ụzọ nke a si metụta ya? Ọ bụrụ na mmehie gị bara ụba, gịnị ka nke a pụrụ ime ya?
אִם־חָטָאתָ מַה־תִּפְעׇל־בּוֹ וְרַבּוּ פְשָׁעֶיךָ מַה־תַּֽעֲשֶׂה־לּֽוֹ׃
7 Ọ bụrụ na ị bụ onye ezi omume, gịnị ka ị na-enye ya, maọbụ gịnị ka ọ na-anata site nʼaka gị?
אִם־צָדַקְתָּ מַה־תִּתֶּן־לוֹ אוֹ מַה־מִּיָּדְךָ יִקָּֽח׃
8 Ajọ omume gị na-emetụta naanị mmadụ dịka gị, ma ezi omume gị na-emetụta naanị ụmụ ndị mmadụ.
לְאִישׁ־כָּמוֹךָ רִשְׁעֶךָ וּלְבֶן־אָדָם צִדְקָתֶֽךָ׃
9 “Ụmụ mmadụ na-eti mkpu akwa nʼihi ịba ụba nke mmegbu, ha na-arịọ arịrịọ enyemaka site nʼaka ndị dị ike.
מֵרֹב עֲשׁוּקִים יַזְעִיקוּ יְשַׁוְּעוּ מִזְּרוֹעַ רַבִּֽים׃
10 Ma ọ dịghị onye na-asị, ‘Olee ebe Chineke onye kere m nọ, onye na-enye abụ nʼime abalị,
וְֽלֹא־אָמַר אַיֵּה אֱלוֹהַּ עֹשָׂי נֹתֵן זְמִרוֹת בַּלָּֽיְלָה׃
11 onye na-akụziri anyị ihe karịa ka ọ na-akụziri ụmụ anụ ọhịa nke ụwa, onye na-eme ka anyị bụrụ ndị maara ihe karịa ụmụ nnụnụ nke igwe?’
מַלְּפֵנוּ מִבַּהֲמוֹת אָרֶץ וּמֵעוֹף הַשָּׁמַיִם יְחַכְּמֵֽנוּ׃
12 Ọ dịghị azaghachi mgbe ụmụ mmadụ na-eti mkpu akwa, nʼihi ịnya isi nke ndị ajọ omume.
שָׁם יִצְעֲקוּ וְלֹא יַעֲנֶה מִפְּנֵי גְּאוֹן רָעִֽים׃
13 Nʼezie, Chineke adịghị aṅa ntị nʼarịrịọ efu ha; Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile a dịghị elebara ya anya.
אַךְ־שָׁוְא לֹא־יִשְׁמַע ׀ אֵל וְשַׁדַּי לֹא יְשׁוּרֶֽנָּה׃
14 Ma ya bụrụzie nke a ị na-ekwu, ọ ga-esi aṅaa gee ntị mgbe ị na-ekwu na ị dịghị ahụ ya anya, na i burula ikpe gị bịa nʼihu ya na ị ga-anọkwa na-eche ya!
אַף כִּֽי־תֹאמַר לֹא תְשׁוּרֶנּוּ דִּין לְפָנָיו וּתְחוֹלֵֽל לֽוֹ׃
15 Ọzọ, nʼihi na iwe ya adịghị eweta ntaramahụhụ, nʼihi na ọ dịghị arịba ama ajọ omume ọ bụladị nke dịkarịsịrị nta.
וְעַתָּה כִּי־אַיִן פָּקַד אַפּוֹ וְלֹֽא־יָדַע בַּפַּשׁ מְאֹֽד׃
16 Ya mere, Job saghere ọnụ ya kwuo okwu dịka onye na-amaghị ihe; ka onye na-enweghị uche ọ na-ekwu okwu nkwukwasị efu.”
וְאִיּוֹב הֶבֶל יִפְצֶה־פִּיהוּ בִּבְלִי־דַעַת מִלִּין יַכְבִּֽר׃
