Yobo 26
1 Yobo azongisaki:
And Job answereth and saith: —
2 « Ah! Tala ndenge osungi moto oyo azangi makasi, ndenge osungi loboko oyo elembi!
What — thou hast helped the powerless, Saved an arm not strong!
3 Tala toli oyo opesi na moto azangi bwanya, mpe tala ebele na mayele oyo olakisi!
What — thou hast given counsel to the unwise, And wise plans in abundance made known.
4 Ozwi maloba oyo wapi? Molimo oyo elobi na monoko na yo ezali ya nani?
With whom hast thou declared words? And whose breath came forth from thee?
5 Bakufi balengaka na se ya mayi mpe ya bikelamu oyo ezalaka kuna.
The Rephaim are formed, Beneath the waters, also their inhabitants.
Naked [is] Sheol over-against Him, And there is no covering to destruction. (Sheol h7585)
7 Atandaka likolo na esika oyo ezali na eloko moko te, atelemisaka mabele na likolo ya eloko moko te,
Stretching out the north over desolation, Hanging the earth upon nothing,
8 akangaka mayi kati na mapata, kasi mapata epasukaka te;
Binding 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;
Taking hold of the face of the throne, Spreading over it His cloud.
10 akataka mondelo na likolo ya mayi, na suka ya pole mpe na molili.
A limit He hath placed on the waters, Unto the boundary of light with darkness.
11 Makonzi ya Lola ezali kolenga mpe ezali kokamwa na pamela na Ye.
Pillars of the heavens do tremble, And they wonder because of His rebuke.
12 Na nguya na Ye, apasoli ebale monene; mpe na mayele na Ye, abuki-buki Rakabe na biteni.
By His power He hath quieted the sea, And by His understanding smitten the proud.
13 Na pema na Ye, Likolo ekomaka kitoko, loboko na Ye etobolaka nyoka oyo ekimaka.
By His Spirit the heavens He beautified, Formed hath His hand 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 way, And how little a matter is heard of Him, And the thunder of His might Who doth understand?
