UJobe 29
1 UJobe wasebuya ephakamisa isaga sakhe wathi:
Hiob toaa so se,
2 Kungathi ngabe nginjengenyangeni zamandulo, njengensukwini uNkulunkulu angigcine ngazo,
“Mʼani agyina asram a atwa mu no, nna a Onyankopɔn hwɛɛ me so no,
3 lapho isibane sakhe sakhanya phezu kwekhanda lami; ngahamba emnyameni ngokukhanya kwakhe!
bere a ne kanea hyerɛn mʼatifi na mede ne kanea nantewee sum mu no!
4 Njengoba nganginjalo ensukwini zokuvuthwa kwami, lapho iseluleko sikaNkulunkulu sasiphezu kwethente lami,
Ao, nna a misii so no, bere a Onyankopɔn adamfofa a emu yɛ den hyiraa me fi,
5 lapho uSomandla wayeseselami, labantwana bami bengiphahlile,
bere a na Otumfo no da so ka me ho na me mma atwa me ho ahyia no,
6 lapho ngagezisa izinyathelo zami ngolaza, ledwala langithululela imifula yamafutha!
bere a na nufusu mu srade afɔw mʼakwan na abotan hwiee ngo sɛ nsu maa me no.
7 Lapho ngaphuma ngaya esangweni ngidabula umuzi, ngalungisa isihlalo sami emdangeni;
“Bere a na mekɔ kuropɔn pon ano mekɔtena mʼagua so wɔ ɔmanfo aguabɔbea,
8 amajaha angibona, acatsha; lamaxhegu asukuma ema;
mmerante hu me a, wogyina nkyɛn na mpanyimfo sɔre gyina hɔ;
9 iziphathamandla zayekela ukukhuluma, zabeka isandla phezu komlomo wazo;
atitiriw gyae kasa na wɔde wɔn nsa kata wɔn ano;
10 ilizwi labakhulu lacatsha, lolimi lwabo lwanamathela elwangeni lwabo.
mmapɔmma tɛm dinn, na wɔn tɛkrɛma ka wɔn dudom.
11 Lapho indlebe isizwa yangibusisa, lelihlo libona langifakazela,
Wɔn a wɔte me nka nyinaa ka me ho asɛmpa, na wɔn a wohu me nyinaa kamfo me,
12 ngoba ngakhulula umyanga okhalayo, lentandane, longelamsizi.
efisɛ meboaa ahiafo a wosu pɛɛ mmoa, ne ayisaa a wonni aboafo.
13 Isibusiso sobhubhayo sehlele phezu kwami, njalo ngenza inhliziyo yomfelokazi ihlabele ngentokozo.
Onipa a na ɔrewu no hyiraa me; na memaa akunafo ani gyee wɔn koma mu.
14 Ngembatha ukulunga, kwangembesa; isahlulelo sami saba njengesembatho lomqhele.
Mede trenee furaa sɛ mʼadurade; atɛntrenee yɛɛ me nkataso ne mʼabotiri.
15 Ngangingamehlo koyisiphofu, ngangizinyawo kusiqhuli.
Meyɛɛ aniwa maa anifuraefo, ne anan maa mmubuafo.
16 Nganginguyise wabayanga, lendaba engingayaziyo ngayihlolisisa.
Meyɛɛ ahiafo agya; na mekaa ahɔho asɛm maa wɔn.
17 Ngasengisephula umhlathi womubi, ngamenza alahle impango emazinyweni akhe.
Mibubuu amumɔyɛfo se na mihwim wɔn a wodi wɔn nya no fii wɔn anom.
18 Ngasengisithi: Ngizaphela lesidleke sami, ngandise insuku njengetshebetshebe.
“Medwenee sɛ, ‘Mewu wɔ mʼankasa me fi mu, na me nna dɔɔso sɛ nwea.
19 Impande zami zinabele emanzini, lamazolo alale ubusuku ogatsheni lwami.
Me ntin beduu nsu ano, na obosu agugu me mman so anadwo mu nyinaa.
20 Udumo lwami lutsha kimi, ledandili lami laguquka esandleni sami.
Mʼanuonyam rempa da, na agyan ayɛ foforo wɔ me nsam daa.’
21 Bangilalela, belindele, bathulela iseluleko sami.
“Nnipa hwehwɛɛ sɛ wotie me, wɔyɛɛ dinn, twɛn mʼafotu.
22 Emva kwelizwi lami kabaphendulanga, lelizwi lami lathontela phezu kwabo.
Sɛ mekasa wie a wɔnnkasa bio, efisɛ me nsɛm tɔɔ wɔn asom yiye.
23 Bangilindela njengezulu, lomlomo wabo bawukhamisela izulu lokucina.
Wɔtwɛn me sɛnea wɔtwɛn osu a ɛpete, na wɔmenee me nsɛm sɛ osutɔ bere nsu.
24 Lapho ngibahlekela, kabakholwanga, lokukhanya kobuso bami kabakuwiselanga phansi.
Sɛ meserew mekyerɛ wɔn a, wɔntaa nnye nni; mʼanimtew som bo ma wɔn.
25 Ngakhetha indlela yabo ngahlala ngiyinhloko, ngahlala njengenkosi phakathi kweviyo, njengoduduza abalilayo.
Mebɔɔ kwan maa wɔn na metenaa ase sɛ wɔn hene; metenaa ase sɛ ɔhene a ɔwɔ nʼasraafo mu; meyɛɛ sɛ obi a ɔkyekye agyaadwotwafo werɛ.
