UJobe 35
1 UElihu wasephendula wathi:
Tete Elihu yi eƒe nuƒoa dzi be,
2 Ukhumbula ukuthi lokhu kuqondile yini? Uthe: Ukulunga kwami kwedlula okukaNkulunkulu.
“Èsusu be esia le dzɔdzɔea? Ègblɔ be, ‘Mawu atso afia nam’
3 Ngoba uthe kusizani kuwe, kungisizani okwedlula isono sami?
gake nèhele ebiam be, ‘Viɖe ka wònye nam eye nu ka makpɔ le eme ne nyemewɔ nu vɔ̃ o?’
4 Mina ngizakuphendula, labangane bakho kanye lawe.
“Medi be maɖo eŋu na wò kple xɔ̃wò siwo le gbɔwò.
5 Khangela amazulu ubone; ukhangele amayezi, aphakeme kulawe.
Wu mo dzi nàkpɔ dziƒo ɖa, le ŋku ɖe lilikpo siwo le dziƒo boo le tawòme
6 Uba usona, wenzani kuye? Uba iziphambeko zakho zizinengi, wenzani kuye?
Ne èwɔ nu vɔ̃ la, nu ka wòawɔ le eŋu? Ne wò nu vɔ̃wo sɔ gbɔ fũu la, nu ka wòagblẽ le eŋu?
7 Uba ulungile, umnikani, kumbe wemukelani esandleni sakho?
Ne ènye dzɔdzɔetɔ la, nu kae nètsɔ nɛ, alo nu kae wòxɔ tso asiwò me?
8 Ububi bakho buthinta umuntu onjengawe, lokulunga kwakho indodana yomuntu.
Ame abe wò ene ko dzie wò vɔ̃ɖivɔ̃ɖi awɔ dɔ ɖo eye amegbetɔviwo ko dzie wò dzɔdzɔenyenye awɔ dɔ ɖo.
9 Ngenxa yobunengi bencindezelo babenza bakhale; bayakhala ngenxa yengalo yabalamandla.
“Amewo le ɣli dom le teteɖeanyi ƒe agba kpekpewo te, wole kuku ɖem be woana gbɔdzɔe yewo tso Ŋusẽtɔ la ƒe alɔ sesẽ te
10 Kodwa kakho othi: Ungaphi uNkulunkulu umenzi wami, onika amahubo ebusuku,
gake ɖeke mebia be, ‘Afi ka Mawu, nye Wɔla, ame si nana kafuhawo ɖina le zã me,
11 osifundisa okwedlula inyamazana zomhlaba, asenze sihlakaniphe okwedlula inyoni zamazulu?
ame si fiaa nu geɖewo mí, wu gbemelã siwo le anyigba dzi eye wòwɔ mí nunyalawoe wu dziƒoxeviwo la le?’
12 Lapho bayakhala, kodwa kaphenduli, ngenxa yokuzigqaja kwababi.
Ne amewo le ɣli dom nɛ la, metɔna o, le ame vɔ̃ɖiwo ƒe ɖokuiŋudzedze ta.
13 Isibili uNkulunkulu kayikuzwa ize, loSomandla kayikukunanza.
Vavã, Mawu meɖo to woƒe kokoƒoƒo gbɔlo la o eye Ŋusẽkatãtɔ la do toku wo.
14 Yebo, lanxa usithi: Kawumboni, kanti isahlulelo siphambi kwakhe; ngakho umlindele.
Ne meɖo to emawo o la, aleke wòaɖo to esia ya boŋ esi nègblɔ be, mele ekpɔm o, wò nya la le eƒe asi me, eye ele be nàlalae.
15 Kodwa khathesi, ngoba intukuthelo yakhe ingajezisanga, laye kayikwejwayela kakhulu yini ukuziphakamisa?
Gawu la, egblɔ be eƒe dziku mehea to na ame gbeɖe o eye menyea kɔ kpɔa vɔ̃ɖivɔ̃ɖi gɔ̃ hã o.
16 Ngakho uJobe uvule umlomo wakhe ngeze, wandisa amazwi engelalwazi.
Ale Hiob ke eƒe nu hegblɔ nya dzodzrowo eye wòlɔ nya siwo me gɔmesese aɖeke mele o la kɔ ɖi gleglegle.”
