UJobe 37
1 Langenxa yalokho inhliziyo yami iyathuthumela, yeqe endaweni yayo.
“Hana yangu inorova nokuda kwezvizvi, uye mwoyo wangu unotomuka uchibva panzvimbo yawo.
2 Zwana lokuzwa umdumo welizwi lakhe, lomsindo ophuma emlonyeni wakhe.
Teererai! Teererai kutinhira kwenzwi rake, nokuunga kunobva pamuromo wake.
3 Uyakukhulula ngaphansi kwamazulu wonke, lokukhanya kwakhe kuze kube semikhawulweni yomhlaba.
Anoregedzera mheni yake pasi pedenga rose, agoituma kumigumo yenyika.
4 Emva kwalokho kubhonga ilizwi, uyaduma ngelizwi lokuphakama kwakhe, angakunqandi lapho kuzwakala ilizwi lakhe.
Shure kwaizvozvo inzwi rokutinhira kwake rinosvika; anotinhira nenzwi roumambo hwake.
5 UNkulunkulu uyaduma ngelizwi lakhe ngokumangalisayo kakhulu, wenza izinto ezinkulu, esingeziqedisise.
Inzwi raMwari rinotinhira nenzira dzinoshamisa; iye anoita zvinhu zvikuru zvinopfuura kunzwisisa kwedu.
6 Ngoba kuliqhwa elikhithikileyo uthi: Woba semhlabeni; lakuzihlambo zezulu, lakuzihlambo zezulu elikhulu lamandla akhe.
Anoti kuchando, ‘Donhera panyika,’ nokumvura inonaya, ‘Naya nesimba.’
7 Uyanamathelisa isandla somuntu wonke, ukuze bazi bonke abantu bomsebenzi wakhe.
Kuitira kuti vanhu vose vaakasika vazive basa rake, anoita kuti munhu mumwe nomumwe ambomira kushanda.
8 Inyamazana ziyangena emihomeni yazo, zihlale ezikhundleni zazo.
Mhuka dzinovanda; dzinoramba dziri mumapako adzo.
9 Isivunguzane siphuma ekamelweni leningizimu, lomqando emimoyeni yenyakatho.
Dutu rinobuda pakamuri yaro, chando chinobva pakuvhuvhuta kwemhepo.
10 Ngomoya kaNkulunkulu kunikwa ungqwaqwane, lamanzi abanzi abe yilitshe.
Kufema kwaMwari kunobudisa mazaya echando, uye mvura zhinji inooma kuita chando.
11 Njalo uthwalisa amayezi ngobumanzi, ahlakaze iyezi lokukhanya kwakhe.
Anozadza makore nounyoro; anoparadzira mheni yake nomumakore.
12 Njalo lona liyajikajika liphenduka ngokuqondisa kwakhe, ukuze enze konke awalaye khona, ebusweni bomhlaba emhlabathini.
Anoafambisa sezvaanoda pamusoro penyika yose, kuti aite zvose zvaanoarayira.
13 Loba ngoswazi, loba ngomhlaba wakhe, loba ngomusa, uyakufikisa.
Anouyisa makore kuzoranga vanhu, kana kuzodiridza nyika yake kuti aratidze rudo rwake.
14 Beka indlebe kukho, Jobe; mana, unanzelele imisebenzi emangalisayo kaNkulunkulu.
“Teerera izvi, Jobho; imbomira ugorangarira zvishamiso zvaMwari.
15 Uyazi yini ukuthi uNkulunkulu uwalungisa nini, enze ukukhanya kwamayezi akhe kukhanye?
Unoziva here kudzorwa kwamakore naMwari nokupenyesa kwaanoita mheni yake?
16 Uyazi yini ukulengiswa kwamayezi, izimangaliso zopheleleyo elwazini?
Unoziva maturikirwo akaitwa makore here, izvo zvishamiso zvaiye akakwana muruzivo?
17 Ukuthi izigqoko zakho zikhudumala njani, ekuthuliseni umhlaba ngomoya weningizimu?
Iyewe unopiswa nenguo dzako nyika painonyaradzwa nemhepo yezasi,
18 Uwendlalile yini amayezi kanye laye, aqine njengesibuko esibunjiweyo ngokuncibilikisa?
ko, ungagona kubatana naye pakutatamura matenga here, iwo akaoma kunge chionioni chendarira yakaumbwa.
19 Sifundise ukuthi sizakuthini kuye; singeke silungise lutho ngenxa yomnyama.
“Tiudze zvatingareva kwaari; hatigoni kureva mhaka yedu nokuda kwerima redu.
20 Kungalandiswa kuye yini ukuthi ngiyakhuluma? Uba umuntu engakhuluma, isibili uzaginywa.
Ko, anofanira kuudzwa kuti ndinoda kutaura here? Ko, pano munhu angakumbira kumedzwa here?
21 Khathesi-ke kabakuboni ukukhanya okubenyezelayo okusemayezini, lapho umoya udlula uwahlambulula.
Zvino hakuna munhu angatarira kuzuva, nokuvhenekera kwaro riri mumatenga, mushure mokunge mhepo yaachenesa.
22 Igolide livela enyakatho. KuNkulunkulu kulobukhosi obesabekayo.
Anouya nokubwinya kunoyevedza achibva nokumusoro; Mwari anouya nokubwinya kunotyisa.
23 USomandla singemfumane; uphakeme ngamandla, langokwahlulela, njalo mkhulu ngokulunga; kacindezeli.
Wamasimba Ose haasvikiki kwaari uye anokudzwa nesimba; mukururamisira uye nokururama kwake kukuru haadzvinyiriri.
24 Ngakho abantu bayamesaba; kanaki wonke owabahlakaniphileyo ngenhliziyo.
Naizvozvo, vanhu vanomutya, ko, haana hanya navose vakachenjera pamwoyo here?”
