Job 37
1 “Nʼihi nke a, obi m na-ama jijiji, na-amali elu site nʼọnọdụ ya.
“Also, my heart trembles at this, And it moves from its place.
2 Gee ntị! Gee ntị nụrụ ụda olu ya, na ụzụ nke si nʼọnụ ya apụta.
Listen diligently to the trembling of His voice, Indeed, the sound goes forth from His mouth.
3 Ọ na-atọpụ amụma ya ka ọ na-ejeru nʼokpuru eluigwe niile, ọ na-ezisakwa ya ebe niile ụwa sọtụrụ.
He directs it under the whole heavens, And its light [is] over the skirts of the earth.
4 Nke a gasịa, ihe ọzọ na-eso ya bụ mbigbọ nke olu ike ya; ụda olu ya na ada ụda dịka egbe eluigwe, mgbe olu ahụ dara dakwasị, ọ naghị egbochi amụma igbu egbu.
A voice roars after it—He thunders with the voice of His excellence, And He does not hold them back, When His voice is heard.
5 Nʼụzọ dị ebube ka olu Chineke si ada dịka egbe eluigwe; ọ na-eme ọtụtụ ihe ukwuu nke anyị na-apụghị ịghọta.
God thunders with His voice wonderfully, Doing great things and we do not know.
6 Nʼihi na ọ bụ ya na-agwa snoo okwu sị: ‘Daa nʼelu ala,’ na-agwakwa mmiri ozuzo okwu sị, ‘Zoo nnukwu mmiri ozuzo.’
For He says to snow: Be [on] the earth. And the small rain and great rain of His power.
7 Ka mmadụ o kere mata akaọrụ ya; ọ na-emekwa ka mmadụ ọbụla kwụsị ịdọgbu onwe ya nʼọrụ.
Into the hand of every man he seals, For the knowledge by all men of His work.
8 Ụmụ anụmanụ bi nʼọhịa na-agbaba zoo onwe; ha na-anọgide nʼebe obibi ha.
And the beast enters into [its] lair, And it continues in its habitations.
9 Oke ifufe na-esite nʼụlọ ya na-abịa, oyi na-esitekwa nʼikuku na-agbasa agbasa.
From the inner chamber comes a windstorm, And from scatterings winds—cold,
10 Iku ume Chineke na-emepụta mkpụrụ mmiri, ogbu mmiri na-akpụkọtakwa.
From the breath of God is frost given, And the breadth of waters is constricted,
11 Ọ na-eme ka igwe ojii jupụta na mmiri; na-eme ka amụma gbuo nʼime igwe ojii.
Indeed, by filling He presses out a cloud, [and] His light scatters a cloud.
12 Site na ntụziaka ya ka ha na-echigharị onwe ha gburugburu imezu ihe ọbụla ọ chọrọ ka ha mee nʼelu ụwa niile.
And it is turning itself around by His counsels, For their doing all He commands them, On the face of the habitable earth.
13 Ọ na-ewebata igwe ojii maka ịta ndị mmadụ ahụhụ, na-eweta ya maka ime ka mmiri zokwasị elu ala igosi ịhụnanya ya.
Whether for a rod, or for His land, Or for kindness—He causes it to come.
14 “Job, gee ntị. Tulee ọrụ ebube niile Chineke na-arụ.
Hear this, O Job, Stand and consider the wonders of God.
15 Ị maara otu Chineke si achịkọta igwe ojii na-eme ka amụma gbuo?
Do you know when God places them, And caused the light of His cloud to shine?
16 Ị maara otu Chineke si kwụba igwe ojii na mbara eluigwe, nke bụ ọrụ ebube onye ihe ọmụma ya zuruoke?
Do you know the balancings of a cloud? The wonders of the Perfect in knowledge?
17 Gị onye uwe i yi nʼahụ na-ekpo gị ọkụ mgbe ụwa dere jii nʼihi ifufe na-esite na ndịda na-abịa,
How your garments [are] warm, In the quieting of the earth from the south?
18 ị pụrụ iso ya tụsaa mbara eluigwe nke dị ike dịka enyo bronz a wụrụ awụ?
You have made an expanse with Him For the clouds—strong as a hard mirror!
19 “Gwa anyị ihe anyị ga-azaghachi ya; ebe ọ bụ na anyị apụghị ido okwu anyị nʼusoro nʼihi ọchịchịrị nke anyị nọ nʼime ya.
Let us know what we say to Him, We do not set in array because of darkness.
20 A ga-agwa ya na m nwere okwu? Ọ dị mmadụ ọbụla ga-achọ ka e loda ya?
Is it declared to Him that I speak? If a man has spoken, surely he is swallowed up.
21 Ugbu a, ọ dịghị mmadụ ọbụla pụrụ ilekwasị anyanwụ anya ka ọ na-achake na mbara igwe, mgbe ifufe ji ngwangwa gabiga mee ka o nwuo ọcha.
And now, they have not seen the light, It [is] bright in the clouds, And the wind has passed by and cleanses them.
22 Nʼugwu ka ebube na-enwu dịka ọlaedo si apụta; Chineke na-eji ebube dị egwu na-abịa.
It comes from the golden north, Fearful splendor [is] beside God.
23 Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile bụ onye anyị na-enweghị ike chọta. Ike ya dị ukwuu, nʼikpe ikpe ya ziri ezi na ezi omume ya bara ụba, ọ naghị emegbu mmadụ.
The Mighty! We have not found Him out, High in power and judgment, He does not answer! And abundant in righteousness,
24 Ya mere, ụmụ mmadụ na-atụ egwu ya, ọ bụ na o nweghị nsọpụrụ nye ndị niile obi ha maara ihe?”
Therefore men fear Him, He does not see any of the wise of heart.”
