< UJobe 26 >

1 Wasephendula uJobe wathi:
Forsothe Joob answeride, and seide, Whos helpere art thou?
2 Umsize njani ongelamandla, wasindisa ingalo engelamandla?
whether `of the feble, and susteyneste the arm of hym, which is not strong?
3 Umeluleke njani ongelakuhlakanipha, watshumayela ngobunengi ulwazi oluqotho?
To whom hast thou youe counsel? In hap to hym that hath not wisdom; and thou hast schewid ful myche prudence.
4 Utshele bani amazwi? Njalo ngumoya kabani ophume kuwe?
Ether whom woldist thou teche? whether not hym, that made brething?
5 Abafileyo bayathuthumela ngaphansi kwamanzi, labahlali bawo.
Lo! giauntis weilen vnder watris, and thei that dwellen with hem.
6 Isihogo sinqunu phambi kwakhe, lencithakalo kayilasisibekelo. (Sheol h7585)
Helle is nakid bifor hym, and noon hilyng is to perdicioun. (Sheol h7585)
7 Welulela inyakatho phezu kwendawo engelalutho, aphanyeke umhlaba phezu kweze.
Which God stretchith forth the north on voide thing, and hangith the erthe on nouyt.
8 Uyabophela amanzi emayezini akhe, kodwa amayezi kawadabuki ngaphansi kwawo.
`Which God byndith watris in her cloudis, that tho breke not out togidere dounward.
9 Uyasibekela ubuso besihlalo sakhe sobukhosi, endlale iyezi phezu kwaso.
`Whych God holdith the cheer of his seete, and spredith abrood theron his cloude.
10 Udwebe umngcele oyisigombolozi phezu kobuso bamanzi, kuze kube sekucineni kokukhanya lomnyama.
He hath cumpassid a terme to watris, til that liyt and derknessis be endid.
11 Insika zamazulu ziyathuthumela, zethuswa yikukhuza kwakhe.
The pilers of heuene tremblen, and dreden at his wille.
12 Ngamandla akhe uthulisa ulwandle, langenhlakanipho yakhe uphahlaza ukuziqhenya.
In the strengthe of hym the sees weren gaderid togidere sudeynly, and his prudence smoot the proude.
13 Ngomoya wakhe ucecise amazulu; isandla sakhe sagwaza inyoka ebalekayo.
His spiryt ournede heuenes, and the crokid serpent was led out bi his hond, ledynge out as a mydwijf ledith out a child.
14 Khangela, lokhu kungamaphethelo ezindlela zakhe; kodwa kuzwakala into encinyane kangakanani ngaye! Kanti umdumo wamandla akhe ngubani ongawuqedisisa?
Lo! these thingis ben seid in partie of `hise weyes; and whanne we han herd vnnethis a litil drope of his word, who may se the thundur of his greetnesse?
