Yobu 34
1 Awo Eriku ne yeeyongera okwogera nti,
Wasephendula uElihu wathi:
2 “Muwulire ebigambo byange, mmwe abasajja ab’amagezi; mumpulirize mmwe abayivu.
Zwanini amazwi ami, zihlakaniphi, lani zazi, libeke indlebe kimi.
3 Kubanga okutu kugezesa ebigambo ng’olulimi bwe lugezesa emmere.
Ngoba indlebe ihlola amazwi, njengolwanga lunambitha ukudla.
4 Leka twesalirewo ekituufu; muleke tulondewo ekisaanidde.
Asizikhetheleni isahlulelo; sazi phakathi kwethu okuhle.
5 “Yobu agamba nti, ‘Siriiko musango, naye Katonda agaanye okusala omusango gwange mu mazima.
Ngoba uJobe uthe: Ngilungile, kodwa uNkulunkulu ususe isahlulelo sami;
6 Wadde nga ndi mutuufu, ntwalibwa okuba omulimba, wadde nga siriiko musango, akasaale ke kanteseeko ekiwundu ekitawonyezeka.’
ngiqamba amanga ngimelene lelungelo lami; umtshoko wami kawelapheki, ngaphandle kwesiphambeko.
7 Musajja ki ali nga Yobu, anywa okunyoomebwa ng’anywa amazzi?
Nguwuphi umuntu onjengoJobe? Unatha ukuklolodelwa njengamanzi,
8 Atambula n’abakozi b’ebibi, mukwano gw’abo abakola ebitali bya butuukirivu.
ahambahambe exukwini labenzi bobubi, ahambe labantu benkohlakalo.
9 Kubanga agambye nti, ‘Omuntu talina kyaganyulwa bw’agezaako okusanyusa Katonda.’
Ngoba uthe: Kakumsizi umuntu nxa ethokoza ngoNkulunkulu.
10 Noolwekyo mumpulirize mmwe abasajja abalina okutegeera. Kikafuuwe Katonda okukola ebibi, wadde Ayinzabyonna okukola ebikyamu.
Ngakho, bantu bengqondo, ngilalelani: Kakube khatshana loNkulunkulu ukwenza inkohlakalo, loSomandla ukwenza isiphambeko.
11 Asasula omuntu olw’ekyo ky’aba akoze; n’amutuusaako ebyo ebimusaanidde olw’empisa ze.
Ngoba umsebenzi womuntu uzawubuyisela kuye, amenze athole njengendlela yalowo lalowo.
12 Weewaawo amazima gali nti, Katonda tasobya. Ayinzabyonna tasaliriza musango.
Yebo, isibili uNkulunkulu kenzi okubi, njalo uSomandla kagobisi isehlulelo.
13 Obuyinza yabuggya eri ani okukulembera ensi? Ani eyamuwa olukusa okufuga ensi yonna?
Ngubani owambeka phezu komhlaba? Kumbe ngubani owamisa umhlaba wonke?
14 Singa asalawo n’atwala omwoyo gw’omuntu awamu n’omukka gwe,
Uba ebeka inhliziyo yakhe phezu kwakhe, uzabuthela umoya wakhe lomphefumulo wakhe kuye.
15 abantu bonna bandizikiriridde wamu, era omuntu yandizzeeyo mu nfuufu.
Inyama yonke ibizaphela kanyekanye, lomuntu abuyele ethulini.
16 “Bw’oba olina okutegeera, wuliriza kino; wuliriza kye ŋŋamba.
Uba kulokuqedisisa-ke, zwana lokhu, ubeke indlebe elizwini lamazwi ami.
17 Oyo atayagala bwenkanya asobola okufuga? Onoosalira abatuukirivu n’oyo ow’amaanyi omusango?
Kambe, ozonda isehlulelo ubengabusa yini? Kambe uzamlahla yini olungileyo kakhulu?
18 Oyo si ye agamba bakabaka nti, ‘Tolina mugaso,’ n’abakungu nti, ‘Oli mukozi wa bibi,’
Angatsho yini enkosini: Mkhohlisi; kuziphathamandla: Lina abangelaNkulunkulu?
19 atattira balangira ku liiso era nga tafa ku bagagga kusinga bw’afa ku baavu, kubanga egyo gye mirimu gy’emikono gye?
Kuye ongemukeli ubuso beziphathamandla, engananzi isinothi phambi komyanga? Ngoba bonke bangumsebenzi wezandla zakhe.
20 Mu kaseera buseera baba bafiiridde wakati mu ttumbi. Abantu banyeenyezebwa ne baggyibwawo. Abo ab’amaanyi batwalibwa n’omukono ogutali gw’abantu.
Bayafa ngesikhatshana; laphakathi kobusuku abantu bayaqhuqhiswa, bedlule; kuzasuswa olamandla kungelasandla.
21 “Amaaso ge gatunuulira amakubo g’abantu; atunuulira buli kigere kye batambula.
Ngoba amehlo akhe aphezu kwendlela zomuntu, uyabona zonke izinyathelo zakhe.
22 Teri kifo kikwafu wadde ekisiikirize eky’amaanyi, ababi gye bayinza okwekweka.
Kakulamnyama njalo kakulathunzi lokufa lapho abenzi bobubi abangacatsha khona.
23 Katonda teyeetaaga kwongera kwekebejja bantu okulabika mu maaso ge okusalirwa omusango.
Ngoba kabi lokhu enaka umuntu, ukuthi aye kuNkulunkulu esahlulelweni.
24 Awatali kwebuuza ku muntu yenna, amenyaamenya ab’amaanyi n’ateekawo abalala mu kifo kyabwe.
Uyaphahlaza abalamandla kungahlolwanga, amise abanye endaweni zabo.
25 Olw’okubanga amanyi ebikolwa byabwe, abamalamu amaanyi ekiro ne babetentebwa.
Ngakho uyayazi imisebenzi yabo, uyabagenqula ebusuku, bachotshozwe.
26 Ababonereza olw’ebikolwa byabwe ebibi abantu bonna nga balaba,
Uyabatshaya njengababi endaweni yababukelayo.
27 kubanga baamuvaako ne balekeraawo okumugoberera ne bataddayo kufaayo n’akatono ku makubo ge gonna.
Ngenxa yokuthi bephambukile ekumlandeleni, bengananzanga leyodwa yezindlela zakhe,
28 Baleetera abaavu okukaaba, ne kumutuukako era n’awulira okukaaba kw’abanyigirizibwa.
baze benza ukukhala komyanga kufike kuye, njalo wakuzwa ukukhala kwabahluphekayo.
29 Naye bw’asalawo obutabaako ky’ayogera, ani ayinza okumunenya? Bwakweka amaaso ge ani ayinza okumulaba? Eggwanga n’omuntu abalinako obuyinza bwe bumu;
Lapho yena ethulisa, ngubani-ke ongaziphatha ngenkohliso? Lapho efihla ubuso, ngubani-ke ongambona? Loba esizweni loba emuntwini eyedwa.
30 aziyiza omuntu atatya Katonda okufuga, aleme okutega abantu emitego.
Ukuze abantu abangabazenzisi bangabusi, ukuze bangabi yimijibila ebantwini.
31 “Singa omuntu agamba Katonda nti, gunsinze, sikyaddayo kwonoona,
Isibili uthe kuNkulunkulu: Ngithwele isijeziso, kangiyikona.
32 kye sitegeera kinjigirize, bwe mba nga nsobezza sikyaddayo kukikola,
Lokhu engingakuboniyo ngifundise wena; uba ngenze okubi kangisayikukwenza futhi.
33 olwo Katonda akuddemu nga bw’oyagala, akuleke ng’ogaanye okwenenya? Kaakano ggwe olina okusalawo, so sinze; noolwekyo mbuulira ggwe ky’omanyi.
Uzaphindisela yini njengokuthanda kwakho, loba uyala, loba wena ukhetha, njalo kungesimi? Wazini-ke? Khuluma.
34 “Abantu abalina okutegeera mumbuulire, abasajja abagezi abawulira muntegeeze,
Abantu abalokuqedisisa bazakhuluma kimi, lomuntu ohlakaniphileyo uzangizwa.
35 ‘Yobu ayogeza butamanya ebigambo bye tebiriimu kwolesebwa.’
UJobe ukhulume engelalwazi, lamazwi akhe kawalanhlakanipho.
36 Singa Yobu agezesebbwa okutuusa ku nkomerero, olw’okwogera ng’abasajja abakozi b’ebibi!
Kungathi ngabe uJobe uyahlolwa kuze kube sekupheleni, ngenxa yempendulo zakhe njengabantu ababi.
37 Kubanga ku kibi kye ayongeddeko obujeemu, n’akuba mu ngalo wakati mu ffe, n’ayongera okwogera ng’awakanya Katonda.”
Ngoba esonweni sakhe wengezelela ububi, etshaya izandla phakathi kwethu, esandisa amazwi akhe emelene loNkulunkulu.
