< Yobu 26 >

1 Awo Yobu n’addamu nti,
And Job answers and says:
2 “Ng’oyambye oyo atalina maanyi! Ng’oyambye omukono ogwo ogutalina maanyi!
“How you have helped the powerless, Saved an arm not strong!
3 Ng’amagezi ga kitalo ago g’owadde oyo atalina magezi! Ng’owadde okuluŋŋamizibwa okuyitirivu!
How you have given counsel to the unwise, And made known wise plans in abundance.
4 Ani akuyambye okwogera ebigambo ebyo? Era mwoyo ki ogwogeredde mu kamwa ko?
With whom have you declared words? And whose breath came forth from you?
5 “Abafu kye balimu tekigumiikirizika, n’abo abali wansi w’amazzi ne bonna abagabeeramu.
The Rephaim are formed, Also their inhabitants beneath the waters.
6 Amagombe gali bwereere mu maaso ga Katonda; n’okuzikiriza tekulina kikubisse. (Sheol h7585)
Sheol [is] naked before Him, And there is no covering to destruction. (Sheol h7585)
7 Ayanjuluza eggulu ery’obukiikakkono mu bbanga ejjereere, awanika ensi awatali kigiwanirira.
Stretching out the north over desolation, Hanging the earth on nothing,
8 Asiba amazzi mu bire bye; ate ebire tebyabika olw’okuzitoowererwa.
Binding up the waters in His thick clouds, And the cloud is not burst under them.
9 Abikka obwenyi bw’omwezi, agwanjululizaako ebire bye.
Taking hold of the face of the throne, Spreading His cloud over it.
10 Ateekawo ekipimo ekiraga waggulu amazzi g’ennyanja we gayita, ng’ensalo eyawula ekitangaala n’ekizikiza.
He has placed a limit on the waters, To the boundary of light with darkness.
11 Empagi z’eggulu zikankana, zeewuunya olw’okunenya kwe.
Pillars of the heavens tremble, And they wonder because of His rebuke.
12 Afuukuula ennyanja n’obuyinza bwe, n’asalaasala Lakabu mu bitundutundu n’amagezi ge.
By His power He has quieted the sea, And by His understanding struck the proud.
13 Yafuuwa omukka ogwatereeza eggulu, omukono gwe gwafumita omusota oguwulukuka.
He beautified the heavens by His Spirit, His hand has formed the fleeing serpent.
14 Naye nga bino katundu butundu ku bye yakola. Nga kye tumuwulirako katundu butundu ku ekyo ky’ali! Ani ayinza okutegeera okubwatuka kw’obuyinza bwe?”
Behold, these [are] the borders of His way, and how little a matter is heard of Him, and who understands the thunder of His might?”
