UJobe 26

1 Wasephendula uJobe wathi:

Awo Yobu n’addamu nti,

2 Umsize njani ongelamandla, wasindisa ingalo engelamandla?

“Ng’oyambye oyo atalina maanyi! Ng’oyambye omukono ogwo ogutalina maanyi!

3 Umeluleke njani ongelakuhlakanipha, watshumayela ngobunengi ulwazi oluqotho?

Ng’amagezi ga kitalo ago g’owadde oyo atalina magezi! Ng’owadde okuluŋŋamizibwa okuyitirivu!

4 Utshele bani amazwi? Njalo ngumoya kabani ophume kuwe?

Ani akuyambye okwogera ebigambo ebyo? Era mwoyo ki ogwogeredde mu kamwa ko?

5 Abafileyo bayathuthumela ngaphansi kwamanzi, labahlali bawo.

“Abafu kye balimu tekigumiikirizika, n’abo abali wansi w’amazzi ne bonna abagabeeramu.

6 Isihogo sinqunu phambi kwakhe, lencithakalo kayilasisibekelo. (Sheol h7585)

Amagombe gali bwereere mu maaso ga Katonda; n’okuzikiriza tekulina kikubisse. (Sheol h7585)

7 Welulela inyakatho phezu kwendawo engelalutho, aphanyeke umhlaba phezu kweze.

Ayanjuluza eggulu ery’obukiikakkono mu bbanga ejjereere, awanika ensi awatali kigiwanirira.

8 Uyabophela amanzi emayezini akhe, kodwa amayezi kawadabuki ngaphansi kwawo.

Asiba amazzi mu bire bye; ate ebire tebyabika olw’okuzitoowererwa.

9 Uyasibekela ubuso besihlalo sakhe sobukhosi, endlale iyezi phezu kwaso.

Abikka obwenyi bw’omwezi, agwanjululizaako ebire bye.

10 Udwebe umngcele oyisigombolozi phezu kobuso bamanzi, kuze kube sekucineni kokukhanya lomnyama.

Ateekawo ekipimo ekiraga waggulu amazzi g’ennyanja we gayita, ng’ensalo eyawula ekitangaala n’ekizikiza.

11 Insika zamazulu ziyathuthumela, zethuswa yikukhuza kwakhe.

Empagi z’eggulu zikankana, zeewuunya olw’okunenya kwe.

12 Ngamandla akhe uthulisa ulwandle, langenhlakanipho yakhe uphahlaza ukuziqhenya.

Afuukuula ennyanja n’obuyinza bwe, n’asalaasala Lakabu mu bitundutundu n’amagezi ge.

13 Ngomoya wakhe ucecise amazulu; isandla sakhe sagwaza inyoka ebalekayo.

Yafuuwa omukka ogwatereeza eggulu, omukono gwe gwafumita omusota oguwulukuka.

14 Khangela, lokhu kungamaphethelo ezindlela zakhe; kodwa kuzwakala into encinyane kangakanani ngaye! Kanti umdumo wamandla akhe ngubani ongawuqedisisa?

Naye nga bino katundu butundu ku bye yakola. Nga kye tumuwulirako katundu butundu ku ekyo ky’ali! Ani ayinza okutegeera okubwatuka kw’obuyinza bwe?”
