UJobe 23
1 Waphendula uJobe wathi:
Iyyoob akkana jedhee deebise:
2 “Lalamuhla ukusola kwami kulokhu kubuhlungu kabi, isandla sakhe siyasinda loba ngibubula kangaka.
“Harʼa iyyuu guungummiin koo hadhaaʼaa dha; yoo ani akkam aade iyyuu harki isaa natti ulfaateera.
3 Ngabe ngiyakwazi lapho engingamfumana khona; aluba nje bengingaya emzini wakhe!
Ani utuun iddoo itti isa argadhu beekee, utuu iddoo inni jiraatu illee dhaquu dandaʼee!
4 Bengizayibeka kuhle indaba yami phambi kwakhe ngigcwalise umlomo wami ngamazwi empikiswano.
Silaa dhimma koo fuula isaa duratti dhiʼeeffadhee afaan koo falmiin guuttadha ture.
5 Bengizakuzwa ukuthi yena uphendula athini, ngikuhlolisise lokho akutshoyo.
Waan inni naa deebisu nan beekan ture; waan inni naan jedhus nan hubadhan ture.
6 Kambe angangiphikisa ngamandla na? Hatshi, angazake angethese cala.
Inni humna isaa guddaa sanaan anaan mormaa? Lakki, na dhaggeeffata malee.
7 Lapho umuntu oqotho ubengendlala indaba yakhe phambi kwakhe, njalo bengizakhululwa lanini kumahluleli wami.
Namni qajeelaan achuma fuula isaa duratti dhimma isaa ni dhiʼeeffata; anis isa natti muru jalaa bara baraan nan baʼa.
8 Kodwa nxa ngisiya empumalanga, yena kakho khona; nxa ngisiya entshonalanga, kangimfumani khona.
“Garuu yoo ani gara baʼa biiftuu deeme, inni achi hin jiru; ani yoo gara dhiʼaa dhaqes achitti isa hin argadhu.
9 Nxa esemsebenzini enyakatho, kangimboni; angaphendukela eningizimu, kangiboni lokuthi tshazi kwakhe.
Yommuu inni kaabatti hojii irra jirutti ani isa hin argu; yommuu inni gara kibbaatti deebiʼuttis ani hamma libsuu ijaa isa arguu hin dandaʼu.
10 Kodwa uyayazi indlela engihamba ngayo; nxa esengilingile, ngizaphuma senginjengegolide.
Inni garuu karaa ani baʼu ni beeka; yommuu inni na qoruttis ani akka warqee taʼee nan mulʼadha.
11 Inyawo zami bezilokhu zilandelana lezinyathelo zakhe; ngalela endleleni yakhe angaze ngaphambuka.
Miilli koo tarkaanfii isaatti dhiʼaatee duukaa buʼeera; ani utuun irraa hin gorin karaa isaa eegeera.
12 Angigudlukanga emilayweni yezindebe zakhe; ngiwenze igugu amazwi omlomo wakhe ukwedlula isinkwa sami sansukuzonke.
Ani ajaja afaan isaa irraa hin fagaanne; nyaata guyyaa guyyaa caalaas dubbii afaan isaa nan jaalladha.
13 Kodwa uzimele yedwa, ngubani ongaphikisana laye na? Uyenza loba yini ayifunayo.
“Inni garuu of dandaʼee kophaa isaa dhaabata; kan isaan mormuu dandaʼu eenyu? Inni waanuma jaallatu hojjeta.
14 Uyagcwalisa isimiso sakhe ngami, njalo manengi amacebo anjalo awagcinileyo.
Inni waan natti mure ni raawwata; amma illee karoora akkanaa hedduu yaada isaa keessaa qaba.
15 Yikho-nje ngithuthumela ukuma phambi kwakhe; ngithi ngingakukhumbula konke lokhu ngimesabe.
Wanni ani fuula isaa duratti naʼuufis kanuma; ani yommuun waan kana hunda yaadutti isa nan sodaadha.
16 UNkulunkulu usenze inhliziyo yami yaphela amandla; uSomandla usengethusile.
Waaqni garaa koo ni raase; Waaqni Waan Hunda Dandaʼu na sodaachise.
17 Kodwa kawuyikungithulisa umnyama lo, umnyama lo onzima ovala ubuso bami.”
Haa taʼu malee dukkanni, dukkanni limixiin fuula koo haguugu iyyuu na hin barbadeessine.
