< Yobu 12 >
1 Awo Yobu n’amuddamu nti,
Na Hiob buae se,
2 “Awatali kubuusabuusa muli bantu. Bwe mulifa n’amagezi gammwe ne gafa.
“Akyinnye nni ho, mo ne nnipa no na muwu a na nyansa asa!
3 Naye nange nnina amagezi ntegeera, temunsinga. Ani atabimanyi ebyo byonna?
Nanso mewɔ adwene sɛ mo ara monnsen me. Hena na onnim saa nneɛma yi nyinaa?
4 Nfuuse ekisekererwa eri mikwano gyange. Nze eyakoowolanga Katonda n’anziramu, ne nsekererwa obusekererwa, ate nga ndi mutukuvu ataliiko musango!
“Mayɛ aserewde ama me nnamfonom, mefrɛɛ Onyankopɔn na obuae, aserewde teta bi, nanso meteɛ na me ho nni asɛm.
5 Abantu abali mu ddembe lyabwe batera okusekerera abali mu mitawaana, ng’ebizibu bwe biba ku abo ababa batuuse awazibu.
Nnipa a wɔn ho tɔ wɔn no bu amanehunu animtiaa sɛnea wobu wɔn a wɔn nan rewatiri no awiei animtiaa no.
6 Weema z’abanyazi tezibaako mutawaana, era abo abanyiiza Katonda babeera mu ddembe abo abeetikka katonda waabwe mu mikono gyabwe.
Wɔmmfa wɔn nsa nka akorɔmfo ntamadan, na wɔn a woyi Onyankopɔn abufuw wɔ bammɔ na Onyankopɔn bɔ nea ɔde ma wɔn ho ban.
7 Naye buuza ensolo zijja kukuyigiriza, oba ebinyonyi eby’omu bbanga binaakubuulira.
“Bisa mmoa no, na wɔbɛkyerɛ wo anaasɛ wim nnomaa no, na wɔbɛka akyerɛ wo
8 Oba yogera n’ettaka linaakusomesa oba ebyennyanja eby’omu nnyanja binaakunnyonnyola.
anaasɛ kasa kyerɛ asase, na ɛbɛkyerɛ wo, anaasɛ ma po mu mpataa nka nkyerɛ wo.
9 Biki ku bino ebitamanyi nti, omukono gwa Mukama gwe gukoze ebyo?
Wɔn nyinaa mu hena na onnim sɛ Awurade nsa na ayɛ eyi.
10 Buli bulamu bwa kitonde buli mu mukono gwe, na buli mukka ogussibwa abantu bonna.
Ne nsam na abɔde nyinaa home wɔ ne adesamma nyinaa home.
11 Okutu tekugezesa bigambo ng’olulimi bwe lukomba ku mmere?
So aso nsɔ nsɛm nhwɛ sɛnea tɛkrɛma ka aduan hwɛ no ana?
12 Amagezi tegasangibwa mu bakaddiye? Okuwangaala tekuleeta kutegeera?
Wonnya nyansa mfi mpanyin nkyɛn, na ɛnyɛ onyinkyɛ na ɛde ntease ba ana?
13 Katonda y’alina amagezi n’amaanyi; y’ateesa ebigambo era y’alina okutegeera.
“Nyansa ne tumi yɛ Onyankopɔn de; afotu ne ntease yɛ ne dea.
14 Ky’amenya teri ayinza kuddamu kukizimba; ky’asiba mu kkomera tekiyinza kuteebwa.
Nea obubu gu no, obiara rentumi nsi; nea ɔde no to afiase no, obiara rentumi nyi no.
15 Bw’aziyiza amazzi, ekyeeya kijja, bw’agata gazikiriza ensi.
Sɛ ɔma osu gyae tɔ a, asase no so yɛ wosee; sɛ ogyaa osutɔ mu a, ɛsɛe asase no.
16 Ye, ye nannyini maanyi n’obuwanguzi, abalimba n’abalimbibwa bonna babe.
Ahoɔden ne nkonimdi yɛ ne de osisifo ne nea wosisi no no nso yɛ ne de.
17 Aggyawo abawi b’amagezi nga tebalina kantu, abalamuzi n’abafuula abasirusiru.
Ɔpa afotufo ho ntama ma wɔkɔ na ɔma atemmufo yɛ nkwasea.
18 Bakabaka abaggyako enjegere ze beesiba ebiwato byabwe, n’abasibamu obukete.
Ɔworɔw ahemfo nkyehama na ɔde abɔso bɔ wɔn asen.
19 Bakabona abatwala nga tebalina kantu, n’asuula abasajja abaanywera.
Ɔpa asɔfo ho ntama, na otu nnipa a wɔn ase atim akyɛ gu.
20 Aziba emimwa egy’abawi b’amagezi abeesigwa, era n’aggyawo okwolesebwa kw’abakadde.
Ɔka afotufo a wogye wɔn di no kasaboa hyɛ, na ogye mpanyimfo nhumu.
21 Ayiwa ekivume ku bakungu, era n’aggya ebyokulwanyisa ku b’amaanyi.
Ɔde animguase gu atitiriw so na otintim gye ahoɔdenfo nsam akode.
22 Abikkula ebintu eby’ebuziba eby’ekizikiza, n’aleeta n’ebisiikirize eby’amaanyi mu kitangaala.
Ɔda sum mu nneɛma a ahintaw adi na ɔde sum kabii ba hann mu.
23 Afuula amawanga okuba ag’amaanyi, era n’agazikiriza; agaziya amawanga n’agasaasaanya.
Ɔyɛ aman akɛse, na ɔsɛe wɔn; ɔtrɛw aman mu, na ɔhwete wɔn mu.
24 Abakulembeze baamawanga abaggyako okukola ebisaanidde; n’abasindika nga bagwirana mu ddungu eritaliimu kkubo.
Ogye wiase akannifo adwene fi wɔn nsam; na ɔma wokyinkyin asase wosee a ɔkwan nna so so.
25 Bawammantira mu kizikiza awatali kitangaala; abaleetera okutagala ng’abatamiivu.”
Wɔkeka wɔ sum mu a wonni kanea; na ɔma wɔtɔ ntintan sɛ asabowfo.”
