1 Awo Yobu n’amuddamu nti,
Wasephendula uJobe wathi:
2 “Awatali kubuusabuusa muli bantu. Bwe mulifa n’amagezi gammwe ne gafa.
Ngoba isibili lingabantu, lenhlakanipho izakufa lani.
3 Naye nange nnina amagezi ntegeera, temunsinga. Ani atabimanyi ebyo byonna?
Lami ngilengqondo njengani, kangiphansi kulani. Njalo ngubani ongelazo izinto ezinje?
4 Nfuuse ekisekererwa eri mikwano gyange. Nze eyakoowolanga Katonda n’anziramu, ne nsekererwa obusekererwa, ate nga ndi mutukuvu ataliiko musango!
Ngiyinhlekisa kumngane wami, obiza kuNkulunkulu amphendule; olungileyo oqondileyo uyinhlekisa.
5 Abantu abali mu ddembe lyabwe batera okusekerera abali mu mitawaana, ng’ebizibu bwe biba ku abo ababa batuuse awazibu.
Uyisibane esidelelekayo emnakanweni wowonwabileyo; ulungele ukutshelela ngonyawo.
6 Weema z’abanyazi tezibaako mutawaana, era abo abanyiiza Katonda babeera mu ddembe abo abeetikka katonda waabwe mu mikono gyabwe.
Amathente abaphangi alokuthula, labamthukuthelisayo uNkulunkulu bavikelekile, kulowo oletha uNkulunkulu esandleni sakhe.
7 Naye buuza ensolo zijja kukuyigiriza, oba ebinyonyi eby’omu bbanga binaakubuulira.
Kodwa-ke buza khathesi inyamazana, zizakufundisa, lenyoni zamazulu, zizakutshela.
8 Oba yogera n’ettaka linaakusomesa oba ebyennyanja eby’omu nnyanja binaakunnyonnyola.
Kumbe khuluma lomhlaba, uzakufundisa, lenhlanzi zolwandle zizakulandisela.
9 Biki ku bino ebitamanyi nti, omukono gwa Mukama gwe gukoze ebyo?
Ngubani ongaziyo phakathi kwakho konke lokhu ukuthi isandla sikaJehova sikwenzile lokhu?
10 Buli bulamu bwa kitonde buli mu mukono gwe, na buli mukka ogussibwa abantu bonna.
Okusesandleni sakhe umphefumulo wakho konke okuphilayo, lomoya wayo yonke inyama yomuntu.
11 Okutu tekugezesa bigambo ng’olulimi bwe lukomba ku mmere?
Indlebe kayihloli yini amazwi, njengolwanga luzinambithela ukudla?
12 Amagezi tegasangibwa mu bakaddiye? Okuwangaala tekuleeta kutegeera?
Kwabadala kakhulu kulenhlakanipho, lebudeni bezinsuku kulokuqedisisa.
13 Katonda y’alina amagezi n’amaanyi; y’ateesa ebigambo era y’alina okutegeera.
Kuye kukhona inhlakanipho lamandla, uleseluleko lokuqedisisa.
14 Ky’amenya teri ayinza kuddamu kukizimba; ky’asiba mu kkomera tekiyinza kuteebwa.
Khangela, udiliza, kungabe kusakhiwa; uvalela umuntu, kungabe kusavulwa.
15 Bw’aziyiza amazzi, ekyeeya kijja, bw’agata gazikiriza ensi.
Khangela, uvimbela amanzi, atshe; abesewathuma, agenqule umhlaba.
16 Ye, ye nannyini maanyi n’obuwanguzi, abalimba n’abalimbibwa bonna babe.
Kuye kukhona amandla lenhlakanipho; okhohlisiweyo lomkhohlisi bangabakhe.
17 Aggyawo abawi b’amagezi nga tebalina kantu, abalamuzi n’abafuula abasirusiru.
Ukhupha abeluleki bahambe behlutshulwe, enze abehluleli babe yizithutha.
18 Bakabaka abaggyako enjegere ze beesiba ebiwato byabwe, n’abasibamu obukete.
Uthukulula isibopho samakhosi, abophe umbhinco enkalweni zawo.
19 Bakabona abatwala nga tebalina kantu, n’asuula abasajja abaanywera.
Ukhupha abapristi bahambe behlutshulwe, awise abalamandla.
20 Aziba emimwa egy’abawi b’amagezi abeesigwa, era n’aggyawo okwolesebwa kw’abakadde.
Uphambula inkulumo yabathembekileyo, asuse ukuqedisisa kwabasebekhulile.
21 Ayiwa ekivume ku bakungu, era n’aggya ebyokulwanyisa ku b’amaanyi.
Uthela ukudelela phezu kweziphathamandla, axegise umbhinco wabalamandla.
22 Abikkula ebintu eby’ebuziba eby’ekizikiza, n’aleeta n’ebisiikirize eby’amaanyi mu kitangaala.
Wembula izinto ezijulileyo ezisemnyameni, akhuphele ekukhanyeni ithunzi lokufa.
23 Afuula amawanga okuba ag’amaanyi, era n’agazikiriza; agaziya amawanga n’agasaasaanya.
Enze izizwe zibe zinkulu, abesezichitha; andise izizwe, abesezisusa.
24 Abakulembeze baamawanga abaggyako okukola ebisaanidde; n’abasindika nga bagwirana mu ddungu eritaliimu kkubo.
Ususa inhliziyo yenhloko zabantu bomhlaba, aziduhise enkangala engelandlela.
25 Bawammantira mu kizikiza awatali kitangaala; abaleetera okutagala ng’abatamiivu.”
Ziphumputhe emnyameni kungelakukhanya, uzenza zidiyazele njengodakiweyo.
