< UJobe 26 >
1 Wasephendula uJobe wathi:
Na Hiob kasaa bio se,
2 Umsize njani ongelamandla, wasindisa ingalo engelamandla?
“Woaboa nea onni tumi! Woagye basa a enni ahoɔden!
3 Umeluleke njani ongelakuhlakanipha, watshumayela ngobunengi ulwazi oluqotho?
Woatu nea onnim nyansa fo! Na woada nhumu pa ara adi!
4 Utshele bani amazwi? Njalo ngumoya kabani ophume kuwe?
Hena na ɔboaa wo ma wokaa saa nsɛm yi? Hena honhom na ɛkasa faa wo mu?
5 Abafileyo bayathuthumela ngaphansi kwamanzi, labahlali bawo.
“Awufo wɔ ahoyeraw kɛse mu, wɔn a wɔwɔ nsu ase ne nea ɛte mu nyinaa.
6 Isihogo sinqunu phambi kwakhe, lencithakalo kayilasisibekelo. (Sheol )
Asaman da adagyaw Onyankopɔn anim; Ɔsɛe nso nni nkataso. (Sheol )
7 Welulela inyakatho phezu kwendawo engelalutho, aphanyeke umhlaba phezu kweze.
Ɔtrɛw wim atifi fam kata nea ɛda mpan so; na ɔde asase sensɛn ohunu so.
8 Uyabophela amanzi emayezini akhe, kodwa amayezi kawadabuki ngaphansi kwawo.
Ɔbɔ nsu boa hyɛ ne omununkum mu, nanso nsu no mu duru ntumi mpae no.
9 Uyasibekela ubuso besihlalo sakhe sobukhosi, endlale iyezi phezu kwaso.
Ɔtrɛw ne omununkum mu de kata ɔsram ani.
10 Udwebe umngcele oyisigombolozi phezu kobuso bamanzi, kuze kube sekucineni kokukhanya lomnyama.
Ɔhyɛ agyirae wɔ nsu so de to ɔhye wɔ hann ne sum ntam.
11 Insika zamazulu ziyathuthumela, zethuswa yikukhuza kwakhe.
Ɔsoro nnyinaso wosow, na nʼanimka ma wɔn ho dwiriw wɔn.
12 Ngamandla akhe uthulisa ulwandle, langenhlakanipho yakhe uphahlaza ukuziqhenya.
Ɔde ne tumi wosow po ne nyansa mu, otwitwaa Rahab mu asinasin.
13 Ngomoya wakhe ucecise amazulu; isandla sakhe sagwaza inyoka ebalekayo.
Ɔde ne home maa wim tewee; na ne nsa wɔɔ ɔwɔ a ɔrewea.
14 Khangela, lokhu kungamaphethelo ezindlela zakhe; kodwa kuzwakala into encinyane kangakanani ngaye! Kanti umdumo wamandla akhe ngubani ongawuqedisisa?
Eyinom yɛ ne nnwuma kakraa bi; ne tumi kakraa bi kɛkɛ! Na hena na obetumi ate ne tumi mmubomu no ase?”
