< UJobe 37 >
1 “Konke lokhu kwenza inhliziyo yami itshaye ize itshede endaweni yayo.
“Hana yangu inorova nokuda kwezvizvi, uye mwoyo wangu unotomuka uchibva panzvimbo yawo.
2 Lalela! Lalela ukubhonga kwelizwi lakhe, ukuzamazama okuphuma emlonyeni wakhe.
Teererai! Teererai kutinhira kwenzwi rake, nokuunga kunobva pamuromo wake.
3 Uyawukhulula umbane wakhe ngaphansi kwawo wonke amazulu awuthumele emikhawulweni yomhlaba.
Anoregedzera mheni yake pasi pedenga rose, agoituma kumigumo yenyika.
4 Ngemva kwalokho kuza umdumo wokubhonga kwakhe; uduma ngelizwi lakhe lobukhosi. Nxa ilizwi lakhe seliqaqamba ulikhulula lonke angaligodli.
Shure kwaizvozvo inzwi rokutinhira kwake rinosvika; anotinhira nenzwi roumambo hwake.
5 Ilizwi likaNkulunkulu liduma ngezindlela ezimangalisayo; wenza izinto ezinkulu ngaphezu kokuzwisisa kwethu.
Inzwi raMwari rinotinhira nenzira dzinoshamisa; iye anoita zvinhu zvikuru zvinopfuura kunzwisisa kwedu.
6 Utshela ungqwaqwane athi, ‘Khithika phezu komhlaba,’ lezulu athi kulo, ‘Thululeka ube yisihlambo esikhulu.’
Anoti kuchando, ‘Donhera panyika,’ nokumvura inonaya, ‘Naya nesimba.’
7 Ukuze kuthi bonke abantu abadalayo bakwazi ukusebenza kwakhe, uyamisa umuntu wonke emsebenzini wakhe.
Kuitira kuti vanhu vose vaakasika vazive basa rake, anoita kuti munhu mumwe nomumwe ambomira kushanda.
8 Izinyamazana ziyacatsha; zihlale ezikhundleni zazo.
Mhuka dzinovanda; dzinoramba dziri mumapako adzo.
9 Isiphepho siyaphuma ekamelweni laso, umqando uphume entshongolweni esikayo.
Dutu rinobuda pakamuri yaro, chando chinobva pakuvhuvhuta kwemhepo.
10 Ukuphefumula kukaNkulunkulu kukhupha iliqhwa, amanzi aluwaca ajiye abe yilitshe.
Kufema kwaMwari kunobudisa mazaya echando, uye mvura zhinji inooma kuita chando.
11 Ugcwalisa amayezi ngamanzi; ahlakaze umbane wakhe ngawo.
Anozadza makore nounyoro; anoparadzira mheni yake nomumakore.
12 Ngokuqondisa kwakhe ayaqhela embese umhlaba wonke ukuze enze loba yini awalaya yona.
Anoafambisa sezvaanoda pamusoro penyika yose, kuti aite zvose zvaanoarayira.
13 Uyawaletha amayezi ajezise ngawo abantu, loba ukuthelezela umhlaba wakhe ukuze atshengise uthando lwakhe.
Anouyisa makore kuzoranga vanhu, kana kuzodiridza nyika yake kuti aratidze rudo rwake.
14 Lalela lokhu, Jobe; akume ukhumbule izimangaliso zikaNkulunkulu.
“Teerera izvi, Jobho; imbomira ugorangarira zvishamiso zvaMwari.
15 Uyakwazi na ukuthi uNkulunkulu uwalawula njani amayezi enze umbane wakhe ulavuke?
Unoziva here kudzorwa kwamakore naMwari nokupenyesa kwaanoita mheni yake?
16 Uyakwazi na ukuthi amayezi emi njani elengile, leyomimangaliso yakhe yena lowo opheleleyo elwazini?
Unoziva maturikirwo akaitwa makore here, izvo zvishamiso zvaiye akakwana muruzivo?
17 Wena oginqiswa yikutshisa kwezigqoko zakho nxa umhlaba uthule zwi kubetha umoya waseningizimu,
Iyewe unopiswa nenguo dzako nyika painonyaradzwa nemhepo yezasi,
18 ungamncedisa yini ukwendlala isibhakabhaka, esilukhuni njengesibuko sensimbi yethusi?
ko, ungagona kubatana naye pakutatamura matenga here, iwo akaoma kunge chionioni chendarira yakaumbwa.
19 Ake usitshele ukuthi pho sithini kuye; ngeke siyimise kuhle indaba yethu ngoba kumnyama nje lapha kithi.
“Tiudze zvatingareva kwaari; hatigoni kureva mhaka yedu nokuda kwerima redu.
20 Atshelwe kambe ukuthi ngifuna ukukhuluma? Ukhona umuntu ongacela ukuthi aginywe?
Ko, anofanira kuudzwa kuti ndinoda kutaura here? Ko, pano munhu angakumbira kumedzwa here?
21 Phela kakho ongalikhangela ilanga, njengoba licazimula kangaka esibhakabhakeni nxa umoya uwaphephule wonke amayezi kwacethula.
Zvino hakuna munhu angatarira kuzuva, nokuvhenekera kwaro riri mumatenga, mushure mokunge mhepo yaachenesa.
22 Esuka enyakatho uqhamuka ngenkazimulo enjengegolide; uNkulunkulu uqhamuka ngobukhosi obesabekayo.
Anouya nokubwinya kunoyevedza achibva nokumusoro; Mwari anouya nokubwinya kunotyisa.
23 USomandla asingeke simfinyelele njalo uphakeme ulamandla; ekwahluleleni kwakhe okuhle lokulunga okukhulu kancindezeli.
Wamasimba Ose haasvikiki kwaari uye anokudzwa nesimba; mukururamisira uye nokururama kwake kukuru haadzvinyiriri.
24 Ngakho-ke abantu bayamhlonipha, ngoba kanti kabanaki yini bonke abahlakaniphileyo enhliziyweni?”
Naizvozvo, vanhu vanomutya, ko, haana hanya navose vakachenjera pamwoyo here?”
