UJobe 35
1 UElihu wasephendula wathi:
Afei, Elihu kae se:
2 Ukhumbula ukuthi lokhu kuqondile yini? Uthe: Ukulunga kwami kwedlula okukaNkulunkulu.
“Wugye di sɛ, eyi fata? Woka se, ‘Onyankopɔn betwitwa agye me.’
3 Ngoba uthe kusizani kuwe, kungisizani okwedlula isono sami?
Nanso wubisa no se, ‘Mfaso bɛn na menya, na sɛ manyɛ bɔne a, mfaso bɛn na menya?’
4 Mina ngizakuphendula, labangane bakho kanye lawe.
“Mepɛ sɛ mibua wo ne wo nnamfonom nyinaa.
5 Khangela amazulu ubone; ukhangele amayezi, aphakeme kulawe.
Ma wʼani so kyerɛ soro na hwɛ; hwɛ omununkum a ɛwɔ wʼatifi sorosoro nohɔ.
6 Uba usona, wenzani kuye? Uba iziphambeko zakho zizinengi, wenzani kuye?
Sɛ woyɛ bɔne a, ɔkwan bɛn so na ɛfa haw no? Mpo sɛ wo bɔne dɔɔso a, nsunsuanso bɛn na enya wɔ ne so?
7 Uba ulungile, umnikani, kumbe wemukelani esandleni sakho?
Sɛ woteɛ a, dɛn na wode ma no anaasɛ dɛn na onya fi wo nsam?
8 Ububi bakho buthinta umuntu onjengawe, lokulunga kwakho indodana yomuntu.
Wʼamumɔyɛ ka onipa a ɔte sɛ wo na wo trenee ka nnipa mma nko ara.
9 Ngenxa yobunengi bencindezelo babenza bakhale; bayakhala ngenxa yengalo yabalamandla.
“Nnipa su bere a wɔhyɛ wɔn so; na wɔsrɛ mmoa fi nea ɔwɔ tumi nsam.
10 Kodwa kakho othi: Ungaphi uNkulunkulu umenzi wami, onika amahubo ebusuku,
Nanso obi mmisa se, ‘Ɛhe na Onyankopɔn, me Yɛfo no wɔ, nea ɔma nnwom anadwo no,
11 osifundisa okwedlula inyamazana zomhlaba, asenze sihlakaniphe okwedlula inyoni zamazulu?
nea ɔkyerɛ yɛn nimdeɛ bebree sen asase so mmoa na ɔma yehu nyansa sen wim nnomaa no?’
12 Lapho bayakhala, kodwa kaphenduli, ngenxa yokuzigqaja kwababi.
Sɛ nnipa su teɛ mu a, ommua, amumɔyɛfo ahantan nti.
13 Isibili uNkulunkulu kayikuzwa ize, loSomandla kayikukunanza.
Ampa ara Onyankopɔn rentie wɔn nkotosrɛ hunu no; na Otumfo remmu.
14 Yebo, lanxa usithi: Kawumboni, kanti isahlulelo siphambi kwakhe; ngakho umlindele.
Ɛno de adɛn na ɔrentie bere a woka se wunhu no, na woka se wʼasɛm wɔ nʼanim enti ɛsɛ sɛ wotwɛn no,
15 Kodwa khathesi, ngoba intukuthelo yakhe ingajezisanga, laye kayikwejwayela kakhulu yini ukuziphakamisa?
na bio, nʼabufuw mmfa asotwe mma na nʼani nni amumɔyɛsɛm akyi pii?
16 Ngakho uJobe uvule umlomo wakhe ngeze, wandisa amazwi engelalwazi.
Enti Hiob bue nʼano ka nsɛnhunu; nimdeɛ a onni nti, ɔkeka nsɛm bebree.”
