1 “Ngasenza isivumelwano lamehlo ami ukuthi angakhangeli intombi ayihawukele.
“Nakola endagaano n’amaaso gange; obutatunuulira muwala n’amaaso ag’obukaba.
2 Siyini isabelo somuntu asabelwe nguNkulunkulu ophezulu na, ilifa lakhe elivela kuSomandla phezulu?
Kiki Katonda kye yandinsasudde okuva waggulu, omugabo ogwandivudde eri oyo Ayinzabyonna ali waggulu?
3 Akusikubhujiswa kwababi lokutshabalaliswa kwalabo abenza okubi na?
Emitawaana tegijjira abo abatali batukuvu, n’okulaba ennaku ne kujjira abakola eby’obujeemu?
4 Kanti kaziboni yini izindlela zami abale zonke izinyathelo zami?
Amakubo gange gonna tagalaba, era tamanyi ntambula yange?
5 Nxa ngike ngahamba ngokwamanga loba unyawo lwami lwakhuthalela inkohliso
Obanga natambulira mu bulimba era nga n’ekigere kyange kyayanguyiriza okukola obukuusa;
6 uNkulunkulu akangikale esikalini sakhe esiqotho ukuze abone ukuthi angilasici,
leka mpimibwe ku minzaani ya Katonda amanye obutuukirivu bwange.
7 nxa izinyathelo zami zike zaphambuka endleleni, nxa inhliziyo yami ikhokhelwe ngamehlo ami, noma kumbe izandla zami zike zangcoliswa,
Obanga ekigere kyange kyali kikyamye okuva mu kkubo, n’omutima gwange ne gugoberera amaaso gange, engalo zange ne zibaako ebbala lyonna;
8 lapho-ke abanye kabazidlele lokho engikuhlanyeleyo, njalo amabele ami kawasitshunwe.
kale nsige, omulala abirye, weewaawo ebirime byange bikuulibwe.
9 Nxa inhliziyo yami ike yakhangwa ngowesifazane, kumbe nxa ngike ngacathama ngasemnyango kamakhelwane,
Obanga omutima gwange gwali gusendeddwasendeddwa omukazi, oba ne mmuteegera ku mulyango gwa muliraanwa,
10 lapho-ke owami umfazi kacholele enye indoda, njalo amanye amadoda kawalale laye.
kale omukazi wange ase eŋŋaano y’omusajja omulala, n’abasajja abalala beebake naye.
11 Ngoba lokho bekuzakuba lihlazo, isono esifanele ukwahlulelwa.
Kubanga ekyo kyandibadde kya kivve, ekibi ekiŋŋwanira okubonerezebwa.
12 Kungumlilo otshisayo onguMaqothula; ngabe kwasiphuna isivuno sami.
Ogwo gwandibadde muliro ogwokya okutuusa mu kuzikirira, ogwandyokezza ebyange byonna bye nasimba.”
13 Nxa ngingaphathanga kuhle izisebenzi zami, esesilisa lesesifazane nxa kukhona abakusolayo kimi,
“Obanga nnali nnyoomye ensonga y’omuddu wange oba omuddu wange omukazi, bwe banninaako ensonga,
14 ngizakuthini lapho uNkulunkulu esengibuza ngakho na? Ngizaphendula ngithini nxa sekumele ngichaze na?
kale ndikola ntya Katonda bw’alinnyimukiramu? Era bw’alimbuuza, ndimuddamu ki?
15 Yena lowo owangenzayo esibelethweni kabenzanga labo na? Kasuye yini yena kanye owasenzayo sonke phakathi kwezisu zabomama na?
Eyantonda mu lubuto nabo si ye yabatonda? Ffenna si ye yatukola mu mbuto za bannyaffe?
16 Nxa ngilahlele eceleni izifiso zabayanga loba ngayekela amehlo omfelokazi edinwa yizinyembezi,
“Obanga nnamma omwavu ekintu kyonna, era obanga nakaabya nnamwandu;
17 nxa ngizidlele ngedwa isinkwa sami, ngingasabelani lezintandane,
obanga nnali ndidde akamere kange nzekka atalina kitaawe n’atalyako,
18 kodwa ebutsheni bami ngabondla njengaboyise, njalo kusukela ekuzalweni kwami ngamkhokhela umfelokazi,
kubanga okuva mu buto bwange namulera nga kitaawe, era okuva mu lubuto lwa mmange nayamba nnamwandu.
19 nxa ngike ngabona umuntu esifa ngokuswela izigqoko, loba umuntu oswelayo engelasivunulo,
Obanga nnali ndabye omuntu yenna ng’afa olw’okubulwa ebyambalo, oba ali mu kwetaaga atalina kye yeebikka;
20 njalo inhliziyo yakhe ayingibusisanga ngokumfudumeza ngoboya bezimvu zami,
mpozzi omutima gwe, gwe gutansiima, olw’okumubugumya n’ebyoya by’endiga zange;
21 nxa ngike ngaphakamisa isandla sami phezu kwentandane, kodwa mina ngikwazi ukuthi bayangilalela emthethwandaba,
obanga nayimusa omukono gwange eri abatalina bakitaabwe, kubanga mmanyi nti, mmanyiganye n’ab’obuyinza,
22 nxa kunjalo kayikhumuke ingalo yami kusukela ehlombe, kayephulwe endololwaneni.
kale omukono gwange gukutuke ku kibegabega kyange, leka gukutukireyo mu kinywa we guyungira.
23 Ngoba ngesaba ukubhubhisa kukaNkulunkulu, kwathi ngokwesaba inkazimulo yakhe, ngayekela ukwenza izinto ezinjalo.
Olw’okutya okuzikirizibwa Katonda n’olw’obukulu bwe, nnali sisobola kukola bintu ng’ebyo.
24 Nxa ngifake ithemba lami phezu kwegolide, loba ngathi kulo igolide elicolekileyo, ‘Ulithemba lami,’
“Obanga nateeka obweyamo bwange mu zaabu oba ne ŋŋamba zaabu ennongoose nti, ‘Ggwe bwesige bwange;’
25 nxa bengithokoziswa yinotho yami enengi, lenzuzo evele ngezandla zami,
obanga neeyagala olw’okuba n’obugagga obungi, oba olw’okuba emikono gyange gy’ali ginfunyisizza bingi;
26 nxa ngilikhangele ilanga libenyezela loba inyanga ihamba ngenkazimulo,
obanga nnali ntunuulidde enjuba, oba omwezi nga byaka mu kitiibwa,
27 yaze yayengeka inhliziyo yami ngaphakathi nganga isandla sami ukuzikhonza,
omutima gwange ne gusendebwasendebwa mu kyama, ne mbinywegera nga mbisaamu ekitiibwa,
28 lezi lazo yizono ebezifanele ukwahlulelwa, ngoba bengizabe ngingathembekanga kuNkulunkulu ophezulu.
era n’ekyo kyandibadde kibi ekiŋŋwanyiza okusalirwa omusango olw’obutaba mwesigwa eri Katonda ali waggulu.”
29 Nxa ngike ngathokoza ngomnyama owehlele isitha sami kumbe ngagqabhaza ngohlupho olumehleleyo,
“Obanga nasanyuka ng’omulabe wange afunye emitawaana oba ne njaguza olw’ebizibu ebyamutuukako,
30 kangivumelanga umlomo wami ukuba wenze isono ngokuqalekisa ukuphila kwakhe,
sakkiriza kamwa kange kwonoona nga nkolimira obulamu bwe.
31 nxa abantu bendlu yami bengakaze bathi, ‘Ngubani ongazange azitike ngenyama kaJobe na?’
Abantu b’omu nnyumba yange bwe baba tebabuuzanga nti, ‘Ani atakkuse nnyama?’
32 kodwa kakulasihambi esake salala emgwaqweni, ngoba umnyango wami wawuhlala uvulelwe izihambi
Tewali mutambuze yasula ku kkubo, kubanga oluggi lwange lwali luggule eri buli muyise.
33 nxa ngisithukuzile isono sami njengokwenziwa ngabantu, ngokufihla umlandu wami enhliziyweni yami
Obanga nakweka ekibi kyange ng’abantu bwe bakola, nga nkweka obutali butuukirivu bwange mu mutima gwange,
34 ngoba ngisesaba abantu ngithuthunyeliswa yikweyiswa ngabosendo ngazithulela ngaze ngala lokuphumela phandle.
olw’okutya ekibiina, nga ntya okuswala mu kika, ne nsirika ne ntya n’okufuluma ebweru,
35 (Oh, kube ukhona ongizwayo! Sengisayina incwadi yokuzivikela kwami, uSomandla kangiphendule; ongimangalelayo kabhale phansi icala angethesa lona.
so nga waliwo ayinza okumpulira, leka nteekeko omukono ku mpoza yange, leka Ayinzabyonna anziremu; n’oyo ampawaabira abiteeke mu buwandiike.
36 Leyoncwadi ngingayithwala ehlombe lami, ngingayithwala ekhanda njengomqhele.
“Ddala ddala nandibyambadde ku kibegabega kyange, nandibyambadde ku mutwe ng’engule.
37 Bengingamchazela ngokugcweleyo ngazozonke izinyathelo zami; ngisondele kuye njengenkosana.)
Nandimunnyonnyodde buli kifo we nalinnya ekigere, nandimusemberedde ng’omulangira.
38 Nxa ilizwe lakithi lingiphika lemifolo yalo imanzi ngezinyembezi,
“Singa ettaka lyange linkaabirira, n’ebinnya byalyo bye nsimye ne bitotobala n’amaziga;
39 nxa ngike ngadla izithelo zalo angaze ngabhadala loba ngephula imimoya yabanikazi,
obanga ndiddemu ebibala awatali kusasula, era ne ndeetera bannannyini lyo okufa,
40 nxa kunjalo kakumile ameva esikhundleni sengqoloyi, lokhula esikhundleni sebhali.” Aphela lapha amazwi kaJobe.
leka omwennyango gumere mu kifo ky’eŋŋaano, n’omuddo oguwunya gumere mu kifo kya sayiri.” Ebigambo bya Yobu byakoma wano.
