< Jovu 27 >
1 Jopu'a mago'ene keaga'a amanage huno hu'ne,
Ndipo Ayubu akaendelea na hoja yake, akasema:
2 tamagerfa huanki kasefa'ma huno mani'nea Hankavenentake Anumzamo'a, kankamuna onamino knare avu'avara hunonanteno, natrege'na tusi natazampi manue.
“Hakika kama Mungu aishivyo, aliyeninyima haki yangu, Mwenyezi ambaye amenifanya nionje uchungu wa nafsi,
3 Menima kasefa'ma hu'na mani'ne'nama nasimu'ma nentoana, Anumzamo nasimura namige'na mani'noe.
kwa muda wote nitakaokuwa na uhai ndani yangu, nayo pumzi ya Mungu ikiwa puani mwangu,
4 Nagra havige nanekea nosu'na, havigea hu'na vahera revatga osugahue.
midomo yangu haitanena uovu, wala ulimi wangu hautatamka udanganyifu.
5 Hagi tamagrama nehaza nanekegura, tamage nehaze hu'na osugahue. Ana nehu'na kefo avu'ava zana osu'na, mani fatgo hu'na mani'nena frigahue.
Sitakubaliana nanyi kabisa kuwa mko sahihi; hadi nife, sitakana uadilifu wangu.
6 Nagra fatgo navu'nava'ma nehua zana kegava hu'ne'na, ana avamenteke mani'na vugahue. Nagrama kasefa'ma hu'na mani'na vanuanknafina, kumi hu'noe hu'na antahintahi hakarea osugahue.
Nitadumisha haki yangu wala sitaiacha; dhamiri yangu haitanisuta muda wote ninaoishi.
7 Nagri'ma ha'ma renenantaza vahera, kefo avu'ava'zama nehaza vahe'ma Anumzamo'ma zamazeri havizama nehiaza huno zamazeri haviza nehuno, nagri'ma zamefi hunenamiza vahera, kumi'ma nehaza vahe'ma zamazeri havizama nehiaza huno zamazeri haviza hugahie.
“Watesi wangu wawe kama waovu, nao adui zangu wawe kama wasio haki!
8 Hagi Anumzamofoma amage'ma nontaza vahera, amuha zazamia omanegahie. Ana hanigeno Anumzamo'a ana vahera zamahe fananehu vagaregahie.
Kwa maana mtu asiyemcha Mungu analo tegemeo gani anapokatiliwa mbali, Mungu anapouondoa uhai wake?
9 Ana vahe'mofo avate'ma knazamo'ma esanigeno zavi'ma atesniana, Anumzamo'a antahi omigahifi?
Je, Mungu husikiliza kilio chake, shida zimjiapo?
10 E'i ana Hankavenentake Anumzamofona musena hunonte'za, Anumzamofontega nunamuna osugahaze.
Je, anaweza kumfurahia Mwenyezi? Je, atamwita Mungu nyakati zote?
11 Nagra menima rempima huramisuana, mago'zana eri frara okigahuanki, Anumzamofo hankave'a erinte ama hu'na tamasamigahue.
“Nitawafundisha juu ya uweza wa Mungu; njia za Mwenyezi sitazificha.
12 Ana hankave'a tamagra'a ko ke'naze. Hianagi na'a higeta amunte omane nanekea hantageta eri hakarea nehaze?
Ninyi nyote mmeona hili wenyewe. Ni ya nini basi mazungumzo haya yasiyo na maana?
13 Kefo avu'ava'zama nehu'za, vahe'ma zamazeri havizama nehaza vahera, Hankavenentake Anumzamo'a miza zamia huhampri zamante'neanki'za erigahaze.
“Hili ndilo fungu ambalo Mungu humpa mtu mwovu, urithi ule mtu mdhalimu anapokea kutoka kwa Mwenyezi:
14 Ana rama'a mofavrea antegahazanagi, ana mofavre naga'zmia hapi zamahege, zamagaku hu'za frige hugahaze.
Hata kama watoto wake watakuwa wengi kiasi gani, fungu lao ni kuuawa kwa upanga; wazao wake hawatakuwa kamwe na chakula cha kuwatosha.
15 Hagi mago'ama ofri'ma manisaza vahera, ruzahu ruzahu krimo zamahe frisnige'za, kento a'nane nagazmimo'za ana vahekura zamasunkura hu'za zavira otegahaze.
Tauni itawazika wale watakaonusurika miongoni mwao, nao wajane wao hawatawaombolezea.
16 Kefo zamavu'zamava'ma nehaza vahe'mo'za rama'a zago eri atru nehu'za, kukenanena rama'a eri tru hanageno hihi huno marerigahianagi,
Ajapokusanya fedha nyingi kama mavumbi, na mavazi kama malundo ya udongo wa mfinyanzi,
17 fatgo zamavu'zmava'ma nehaza vahe'mo'za ana kukena eri nehankresnage'za, ke'zami omne vahe'mo'za ana vahe'mokizmi zagoa refko hu'za erigahaze.
yale yote mtu mwovu aliyojiwekea akiba, mwenye haki atayavaa, naye asiye na hatia ataigawanya fedha yake.
18 Kefo zamavu'zmava'ma nehaza vahe'mo'zama noma kisazana, pamponkemofo nomo'ma hiaza huno hankave'a omane no negi'za, mani'ne'za hozama kvama hanazana tona no kizankna hu'za nona kigahaze.
Nyumba aijengayo ni kama utando wa buibui, kama kibanda alichotengeneza mlinzi.
19 Kumi'ma nehaza vahe'mo'zama nozamifima masazana zago vahekna hu'za nemasaze. Hianagi mase'nafinti'ma oti'zama kazana, maka fenozamimo'a igafi freno omnetfa nehie.
Yeye hulala akiwa tajiri, lakini ndiyo mara ya mwisho; afunguapo macho yake, yote yametoweka.
20 Timo'ma hageno eaza huno, hazenke zamo'a eno eme zamavareno fregahie.
Vitisho humjia kama mafuriko; dhoruba humkumba ghafula usiku.
21 Zage fre kazigati zaho'mo eme zamazeri komenkame huno zamavaresga huno fresnige'za, ko'ma mani'naza nonkumatera omanigahaze.
Upepo mkali wa mashariki humchukua, naye hutoweka; humzoa kutoka mahali pake.
22 Ana zahomo'a ana vahekura asunkura huozmanteno zamazeri haviza hanige'za, ana zahomofo hankavegu koro nehu'za zamagare'za fregahaze.
Humvurumisha bila huruma, huku akikimbia kasi kukwepa nguvu zake.
23 Hianagi maka vahe'mo'zama ana zama fore haniaza nege'za, zamaza rupro nehu'za tusi zamagiza regahaze.
Upepo humpigia makofi kwa dharau, na kumfukuza atoke mahali pake.
