< UJobe 28 >
1 Isibili kukhona umthapho wesiliva, lendawo yegolide abalicengayo.
“Ddala ddala waliwo ebirombe mwe basima effeeza, n’ekifo gye balongooseza effeeza.
2 Insimbi ithathwa enhlabathini, lethusi lincibilikiswa elitsheni.
Ekyuma kisimibwa mu ttaka, n’ekikomo ne bakisaanuusa okukiggya mu mayinja.
3 Umisela umnyama umngcele, udingisisa kuze kube sekupheleleni konke, amatshe obumnyama lethunzi lokufa.
Omuntu agoberera enzikiza n’anoonya eyo mu ttaka wansi, asime ekyuma mu kizikiza ekiri wansi ennyo.
4 Uqhekeza umgodi khatshana lalapho okuhlala khona abantu, lapho abakhohlwe khona lunyawo; bayalenga bejikajika khatshana labantu.
Asima ekinnya ekiri ewala n’abantu gye babeera, mu bifo eteyita bantu, ewala okuva abantu gye bayita.
5 Umhlaba, kuphuma ukudla kuwo, langaphansi kwawo kuphenduka kwangathi ngumlilo.
Ensi evaamu emmere, naye wansi waayo yafuusibwa nga muliro.
6 Amatshe awo ayindawo yesafire, njalo ulothuli lwegolide.
Safira eva mu mayinja gaayo, era enfuufu yaayo erimu zaabu.
7 Inyoni edla inyama kayiyazi indlela, lelihlo lelinqe kaliyibonanga.
Tewali kinyonyi kiyizzi kimanyi kkubo lino, wadde n’amaaso ga kamunye tegarirabanga.
8 Imidlwane yokuziqhenyayo kayiyinyathelanga, isilwane kasihambanga kuyo.
Ekibinja ky’empologoma ento tekituukangayo, tewali mpologoma yali eyiseeyo.
9 Uyelula isandla sakhe elitsheni elilukhuni, uyagenqula izintaba ezimpandeni.
Omuntu ayasa n’omukono gwe ejjinja ery’embaalebaale, n’avuunika ensozi okuviira ddala we zisibuka.
10 Aqhekeze imisele emadwaleni, lelihlo lakhe libona konke okuligugu.
Asima ensalosalo ku njazi; n’amaaso ge galaba eby’omuwendo byonna.
11 Uyabopha izifula zingathonti, lokufihlakeleyo ukukhuphela ekukhanyeni.
Anoonya wansi mu migga, n’aggyayo ebintu ebyakwekebwa.
12 Kodwa inhlakanipho ingatholakala ivela ngaphi? Lendawo yokuqedisisa ingaphi?
“Naye amagezi gasangibwa wa? Okutegeera kuva wa?
13 Umuntu kalazi ixabiso lakho, njalo kakutholakali elizweni labaphilayo.
Omuntu tayinza kutegeera mugaso gwago; tegasangibwa mu nsi y’abalamu.
14 Ukujula kuthi: Kakukho kimi. Lolwandle luthi: Kakulami.
Obuziba bwogera nti, ‘Tegali mu nze,’ ennyanja eyogera nti, ‘Tegali mu nze.’
15 Igolide elihle lingenikwe endaweni yakho, lesiliva singelinganiselwe intengo yakho.
Tegayinza kugulibwa na zaabu asingayo obulungi, wadde omuwendo gwago okupimibwa mu ffeeza.
16 Kungelingane legolide leOfiri, le-onikse eligugu, lesafire.
Tegayinza kugulibwa na zaabu wa Ofiri, mu mayinja ag’omuwendo aga onuku oba safiro.
17 Igolide lekristali kungelingane lakho, futhi kungenaniswe ngesitsha segolide elicwengekileyo.
Zaabu n’endabirwamu tebiyinza kugenkana: so tegayinza kugeraageranyizibwa n’amayinja ag’omuwendo.
18 Ikorali lekristali kakuyikukhunjulwa, ngoba intengo yenhlakanipho ingaphezu kwamatshe aligugu.
Kolali n’amayinja ag’endabirwamu tebyogerwa nako; omuwendo ogugula amagezi gusinga amayinja amatwakaavu.
19 Itopazi leEthiyophiya lingelinganiswe lakho, kungelingane legolide elicwengekileyo.
Topazi eva mu Esiyopya teyinza kugenkana, tegayinza wadde okugulibwa mu zaabu etetabikiddwamu kantu konna.
20 Pho, inhlakanipho ivela ngaphi? Lendawo yokuqedisisa ingaphi?
“Kale amagezi gava ludda wa? N’okutegeera kubeera ludda wa?
21 Ngoba kusithekile emehlweni abo bonke abaphilayo, kwafihlwa ezinyonini zamazulu.
Gakwekebwa okuva mu maaso g’ebintu byonna ebiramu, era gakwekeddwa ebinyonyi by’omu bbanga.
22 Ukubhujiswa lokufa kuthi: Sizwile ngendlebe zethu umbiko wakho.
Okuzikiriza n’Okufa kwogera nti, ‘Nawulirako buwulizi ku lugambo lwakwo mu matu gange.’
23 UNkulunkulu uyayiqedisisa indlela yakho, njalo yena uyayazi indawo yakho.
Katonda ategeera ekkubo erigatuukako era ye yekka y’amanyi gye gabeera,
24 Ngoba yena uyakhangela kuze kube semikhawulweni yomhlaba, abone ngaphansi kwawo wonke amazulu.
kubanga alaba enkomerero y’ensi era alaba ebintu byonna wansi w’eggulu.
25 Esenzela umoya isisindo, walinganisa amanzi ngesilinganiso.
Bwe yateekawo amaanyi g’empewo, n’apima n’amazzi,
26 Lapho esenzela izulu isimiso, lombane wokuduma indlela.
bwe yateekera enkuba etteeka era n’ekkubo eggulu we linaayitanga nga limyansa,
27 Ngalesosikhathi wakubona, walandisa ngakho; wakulungisa, yebo, wakuhlolisisa.
olwo n’atunuulira amagezi n’agalangirira; n’agateekawo, n’agagezesa.
28 Wasesithi emuntwini: Khangela, ukwesaba iNkosi, lokhu kuyinhlakanipho, lokusuka ebubini kuyikuqedisisa.
N’agamba omuntu nti, ‘Laba, okutya Mukama, ge magezi, n’okuleka ekibi, kwe kutegeera.’”
