UJobe 2
1 Kwakulosuku futhi lapho amadodana kaNkulunkulu afika ukuzimisa phambi kweNkosi, uSathane laye wafika phakathi kwawo ukuzimisa phambi kweNkosi.
Ɛda foforɔ bi, abɔfoɔ no baa Awurade anim bio na Satan nso kaa wɔn ho baeɛ.
2 INkosi yasisithi kuSathane: Uvela ngaphi? USathane wasephendula iNkosi wathi: Ekuzulazuleni emhlabeni lekuhambahambeni kuwo.
Awurade bisaa Satan sɛ, “Wofiri he na wobaa ha?” Satan buaa Awurade sɛ, “Mefiri asase so akyinkyinakyinkyini ne emu akɔneabadie mu.”
3 INkosi yasisithi kuSathane: Ubekile yini inhliziyo yakho encekwini yami uJobe? Ngoba kakho onjengaye emhlabeni, umuntu opheleleyo loqondileyo, owesaba uNkulunkulu, loxwaya ububi? Usabambelele kubo ubuqotho bakhe, lanxa ungivuse ukuze ngimchithe kungelasizatho.
Na Awurade bisaa Satan sɛ, “Woadwene mʼakoa Hiob ho anaa? Obiara nte sɛ ɔno wɔ asase so, ne ho nni asɛm na ɔtene. Ɔyɛ onipa a ɔsuro Onyankopɔn na ɔkyiri bɔne. Ɛwom sɛ wohyɛɛ me sɛ mensɛe no a menni nnyinasoɔ biara deɛ, nanso ɔda so gyina ne pɛpɛyɛ no mu.”
4 USathane wasephendula iNkosi wathi: Isikhumba ngesikhumba, yebo, konke umuntu alakho uzakunikelela impilo yakhe.
Satan buaa Awurade sɛ, “Wedeɛ pere wedeɛ. Onipa de deɛ ɔwɔ nyinaa bɛma de apere ne nkwa.
5 Kodwa khathesi yelula isandla sakho, uthinte ithambo lakhe lenyama yakhe; isibili uzakuthuka ebusweni bakho.
Sɛ ɛbɛtumi a tene wo nsa fa ka ne honam ne ne nnompe, na ɔbɛdome wo wɔ wʼanim!”
6 INkosi yasisithi kuSathane: Khangela, usesandleni sakho; kodwa gcina impilo yakhe.
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Satan sɛ, “Ɛyɛ, ɔwɔ wo nsam na ne nkwa deɛ, gyaa mu ma no.”
7 USathane wasephuma phambi kweNkosi, wamtshaya uJobe ngamathumba amabi, kusukela ngaphansi konyawo lwakhe kuze kube enkanda yakhe.
Enti, Satan firii Awurade anim, na ɔmaa akuro a ɛyɛ yea totɔɔ Hiob ho firi ne nan ase kɔsii nʼapampam.
8 Wasezithathela udengezi ukuziphala ngalo, wahlala phakathi kwesilotha.
Afei, na kyɛmferɛ na Hiob de dwi ne ho, ɛberɛ a ɔte nsõ mu.
9 Umkakhe wasesithi kuye: Usabambelele yini kubuqotho bakho? Thuka uNkulunkulu, ufe.
Ne yere bisaa no sɛ, “Woda so kura wo pɛpɛyɛ no mu ara? Dome Onyankopɔn, na wu!”
10 Kodwa wathi kuye: Ukhuluma njengokukhuluma komunye wabesifazana abayiziwula. Kambe, sizakwemukela okuhle kuNkulunkulu, singemukeli lokubi yini? Kukho konke lokhu uJobe konanga ngendebe zakhe.
Na Hiob buaa no sɛ, “Wokasa sɛ ɔbaa a ɔyɛ ɔkwasea. Ade pa deɛ, yɛagye afiri Onyankopɔn nsam na ade bɔne na yɛmpo anaa?” Yei nyinaa mu, Hiob anka asɛm bɔne.
11 Abangane abathathu bakaJobe sebezwile ngakho konke lokhu okubi okumehleleyo, beza, lowo lalowo evela endaweni yakhe, uElifazi umThemani, loBilidadi umShuhi, loZofari umNahama; bavumelana ndawonye ukuthi beze bamkhalele bamduduze.
Ɛberɛ a Hiob nnamfo baasa bi a wɔne Temanni Elifas, Suhini Bildad ne Naamani Sofar tee amanehunu a aba Hiob so no, wɔfirii wɔn afie mu, hyia yɛɛ adwene sɛ wɔbɛkɔ akɔhwɛ no na wɔakyekye ne werɛ.
12 Lapho bephakamisa amehlo abo bekhatshana, kabamazanga, baphakamisa ilizwi labo, bakhala inyembezi, badabula ngulowo ibhatshi lakhe, bavuvuzela uthuli emakhanda abo ngasemazulwini.
Wɔhunuu Hiob firii akyiri no, wɔanhunu sɛ ɛyɛ ɔno; wɔhyɛɛ aseɛ twaa agyaadwoɔ, sunsuanee wɔn ntadeɛ mu, tuu mfuturo guu wɔn tiri so.
13 Basebehlala laye emhlabathini insuku eziyisikhombisa lobusuku obuyisikhombisa, njalo kakho owakhuluma ilizwi kuye, ngoba babona ukuthi ubuhlungu bukhulu kakhulu.
Na wɔne no tenaa fam nnanson, awia ne anadwo. Na obiara ankasa, ɛfiri sɛ, wɔhunuu sɛ nʼamanehunu no nyɛ asɛmwa.
