Hopa 32
1 Heoi mutu ake te whakahoki kupu a enei tangata tokotoru ki a Hopa, no te mea he tika ia ki tona nei whakaaro.
Amadoda la womathathu ema ukuphendula uJobe ngoba wayelungile ngokubona kwakhe.
2 Na kua mura te riri o Erihu tama a Parakere Puti, no te whanau i a Rame: mura ana tona riri ki a Hopa, no te mea ki tana tika rawa ia i te Atua.
Kodwa u-Elihu indodana kaBharakeli umBhuzi, owendlu kaRamu, wamzondela uJobe ngokuzigeza yena endaweni yokugezwa nguNkulunkulu.
3 I mura ano tona riri ki ona hoa tokotoru, no te mea kihai i kitea e ratou he kupu hei whakahokinga atu, heoi kei te whakahe ano ratou i a Hopa.
Wayebazondele njalo labangane labo bobathathu ngoba babengayitholanga indlela yokuphikisa uJobe kodwa bemlahlile ngokumsola.
4 Na i tatari a Erihu kia korero ia ki a Hopa, no te mea he kaumatua ake ratou i a ia.
U-Elihu wayeke wema ukukhuluma loJobe ngoba babebadala kulaye.
5 A, no te kitenga o Erihu kahore he kupu i nga mangai o aua tangata tokotoru hei whakahokinga atu, mura ana tona riri.
Kodwa kwathi esebona ukuthi wonke amadoda womathathu ayengaselalutho ayengalutsho, ulaka lwakhe lwavutha.
6 Na ka oho a Erihu tama a Parakere Puti, ka mea, He taitamariki ahau, ko koutou ia he koroheke rawa; koia ahau i hopohopo ai, i wehi ai ki te whakaatu i toku whakaaro ki a koutou.
Ngakho-ke u-Elihu indodana kaBharakeli umBhuzi wathi: “Ngimncinyane ngeminyaka, lina libadala; yikho bengisesaba, ngithikaza ukutsho engikwaziyo.
7 I mea ahau, Ma nga ra te korero, ma nga tau kua maha e whakaatu te whakaaro nui.
Ngikhumbule ngathi, ‘Kakukhulume ubudala; iminyaka yokukhula kayifundise ukuhlakanipha.’
8 Otiia he wairua ano to te tangata, na te manawa ano o te Kaha Rawa ratou i whai mahara ai.
Kodwa kungumoya osemuntwini, ukuphefumula kukaSomandla, okumupha ukuqedisisa.
9 Ko nga tangata nunui, kahore o ratou whakaaro nui, ko nga kaumatua, kahore e matau ki te whakawa.
Kakusibo bodwa abadala abahlakaniphileyo, njalo kakusibo bodwa abalupheleyo abakuzwisisayo okulungileyo.
10 Koia ahau i mea ai, Whakarongo ki ahau; ka whakakite hoki ahau i toku whakaaro.
Ngakho ngithi: Lalelani kimi; lami ngizalitshela engikwaziyo.
11 Nana, i tatari ahau ki a koutou kupu; i whai taringa atu ki o koutou whakaaro mohio i a koutou e rapu kupu ana.
Bengithule lisakhuluma, ngikulalele ukucabanga kwenu; lathi lisadinga amazwi,
12 Nana, mahara tonu atu ahau ki a koutou, a kihai tetahi o koutou i whakaatu i te he o Hopa, i whakahoki kupu ranei ki ana korero.
ngalilalela ngokupheleleyo. Kodwa kakho lamunye kini otshengise ukuthi uJobe ulahlekile; kakho omunye wenu osephendule imibono yakhe.
13 Kei mea koutou, Kua kitea e matou te mohio, na te Atua ia i turaki, ehara i te tangata.
Lingaze lathi, ‘Sesikutholile ukuhlakanipha; uNkulunkulu kaveze ukuphosisa kwakhe, hatshi umuntu.’
14 Na kihai ana kupu i anga mai ki ahau; e kore ano tana e utua e ahau ki a koutou kupu.
Kodwa uJobe kakaqondisisi amazwi akhe kimi, futhi kangiyikumphendula ngendlela yenu yokuphikisa.
15 Porahurahu kau ana ratou, kore ake a ratou kupu whakahoki: mutu ake a ratou korero.
Sebededile kabaselakho okunye abangakutsho; sebesilela amazwi.
16 Kia tatari ahau, no te mea kahore ratou e korero, no te mea e tu kau ana ratou, kahore e whakahoki atu?
Ngike ngime na njengoba sebethule, sebemi nje laphayana bengaselampendulo?
17 Me korero atu hoki e ahau aku kupu, maku ano e whakaatu toku whakaaro.
Lami ngisake ngikhulume; lami ngizakutsho engikwaziyo.
18 Ki tonu hoki ahau i te korero; e akiakina ana ahau e te wairua i roto i ahau.
Ngoba manengi amazwi engilawo, umoya ongaphakathi kwami uyangifuqa;
19 Nana, ko toku kopu rite tonu ki te waina kahore nei ona putanga; ki te ipu hou e tata ana ia te pakaru.
ngaphakathi ngiyafuthelana njengewayini elivalelwe embodleleni; njengemixhaka yewayini esifuna ukudubuka.
20 Me korero ahau, kia ta ai toku manawa; ka puaki toku mangai, ka whakahoki kupu ahau.
Kumele ngikhulume ukuze ngibhodle; kumele ngivule indebe zami ngiphendule.
21 Na kaua ahau e whakapai ki te kanohi tangata; e kore hoki ahau e hoatu ingoa whakapaipai ki te tangata.
Kangizukutshengisa ubandlululo loba kukubani, futhi kangisoze ngiyenge muntu;
22 Kahore hoki ahau e mohio ki te whakapati; penei kua riro wawe ahau i toku Kaihanga.
ngoba ngabe ngangiligabazi ekukhulumeni, uMenzi wami ubezangisusa masinyane.”
