Yobo 26
1 Yobo azongisaki:
And Job answered and said,
2 « Ah! Tala ndenge osungi moto oyo azangi makasi, ndenge osungi loboko oyo elembi!
How hast thou helped the powerless; how saved the arm that is without strength!
3 Tala toli oyo opesi na moto azangi bwanya, mpe tala ebele na mayele oyo olakisi!
How hast thou counselled him that hath no wisdom, and abundantly declared the thing as it is!
4 Ozwi maloba oyo wapi? Molimo oyo elobi na monoko na yo ezali ya nani?
For whom hast thou uttered words? and whose spirit came from thee?
5 Bakufi balengaka na se ya mayi mpe ya bikelamu oyo ezalaka kuna.
The shades tremble beneath the waters and the inhabitants thereof;
Sheol is naked before him, and destruction hath no covering. (Sheol h7585)
7 Atandaka likolo na esika oyo ezali na eloko moko te, atelemisaka mabele na likolo ya eloko moko te,
He stretcheth out the north over empty space, he hangeth the earth upon nothing;
8 akangaka mayi kati na mapata, kasi mapata epasukaka te;
He bindeth up the waters in his thick clouds, and the cloud is not rent under them.
9 azipaka kiti ya bokonzi na Ye, atandaka mapata na likolo na yango;
He covereth the face of his throne, he spreadeth his cloud upon it.
10 akataka mondelo na likolo ya mayi, na suka ya pole mpe na molili.
He hath traced a fixed circle over the waters, unto the confines of light and darkness.
11 Makonzi ya Lola ezali kolenga mpe ezali kokamwa na pamela na Ye.
The pillars of the heavens tremble and are astonished at his rebuke.
12 Na nguya na Ye, apasoli ebale monene; mpe na mayele na Ye, abuki-buki Rakabe na biteni.
He stirreth up the sea by his power, and by his understanding he smiteth through Rahab.
13 Na pema na Ye, Likolo ekomaka kitoko, loboko na Ye etobolaka nyoka oyo ekimaka.
By his Spirit the heavens are adorned; his hand hath formed the fleeing serpent.
14 Soki makambo wana ezali kaka ndambo moke ya misala na Ye mpe mongongo na Ye ya se oyo toyokaka, nani akoki kososola bakake ya nguya na Ye? »
Lo, these are the borders of his ways; but what a whisper of a word do we hear of him! And the thunder of his power, who can understand?
