1 UJobe wasephendula wathi:
Wasephendula uJobe wathi:
2 Kungathi ukudabuka kwami bekungalinganiswa lokulinganiswa, lenhlupheko yami ibekwe ndawonye esikalini!
“Nxa ubuhlungu bami bungalinganiswa lokuhlupheka kwami konke kufakwe esikalini!
3 Ngoba khathesi kungaba nzima kuletshebetshebe lolwandle. Ngenxa yalokho amazwi ami angawamawala.
Ngempela bungasinda ukwedlula itshebetshebe yolwandle, akungamangalisi ukuthi amazwi ami abhede kanje.
4 Ngoba imitshoko kaSomandla iphakathi kwami, obuhlungu bayo umoya wami uyabunatha; izesabiso zikaNkulunkulu ziyazihlela zimelene lami.
Imitshoko kaSomandla iphakathi kwami, umoya wami unatha itshefu yayo; inhlupho zokuhlukuluza zikaNkulunkulu ziqondiswe kimi.
5 Ubabhemi weganga uyakhala yini esohlazeni, kumbe inkabi iyakhonya yini ekudleni kwayo?
Kambe ubabhemi weganga uyakhala yini utshani bukhona, loba inkabi ikhonye yona ukudla ilakho?
6 Kambe okuduma kungadliwa kungelatshwayi? Kulokuhlabusa kokumhlophe kweqanda yini?
Ukudla okuduma kuyadleka na kungelatswayi, kumbe okumhlophe kweqanda kuyanambitheka yini?
7 Umphefumulo wami uyala ukukuthinta, kunjengokudla kwami okunengekayo.
Ngiyala ukukuthinta; ukudla okunjalo kubuyisa inhliziyo yami.
8 Kungathi isicelo sami singafika, njalo uNkulunkulu anginike ithemba lami,
Oh, aluba ngingazuza isicelo sami, uNkulunkulu angiphe lokho engikufisayo,
9 ukuthi kumthokozise uNkulunkulu ukungichoboza, ayekele isandla sakhe, angiqume.
ukuthi uNkulunkulu avume ukungichoboza, ekele nje isandla sakhe singiqede!
10 Khona kungahlala kube yinduduzo yami, bengingajabula ebuhlungwini obungayekeliyo; ngoba kangiwafihlanga amazwi oNgcwele.
Lalapho ngizabe ngilokhu ngilale induduzo intokozo yami ebuhlungwini obungadediyo, ukuthi bengingawaphikanga amazwi akhe oNgcwele.
11 Ayini amandla ami ukuze ngithembe? Lokuphela kwami kuyini ukuze ngelule impilo yami?
Ngilamandla bani okuthi ngibe lokhu ngithemba? Ngisamelelwe yini ukuba ngibe ngilokhu ngibekezela?
12 Amandla ami angamandla amatshe yini? Inyama yami ilithusi yini?
Ngilamandla elitshe yini? Inyama yami ilithusi na?
13 Usizo lwami kalukimi yini? Lenhlakanipho iyaxotshwa kimi yini?
Ngilawo yini amandla okuzisiza, manje njengoba sengemukwe impumelelo?
14 Ohluphekayo nga ehawukelwa ngumngane wakhe, kodwa udela ukwesabeka kukaSomandla.
Iloba ngubani ogodla umusa kumkhula wakhe udela ukwesaba uSomandla.
15 Abafowethu kabenzanga ngokuthembeka njengesifula, njengempophoma yezifula bayedlula,
Kodwa abafowethu kabathenjwa njengemifula egeleza icitsha, njengemifula echithayo
16 ezimnyama ngenxa yongqwaqwane, okucatsha kizo iliqhwa elikhithikileyo.
ileliqhwa eselincibilika, njalo igcwele ngongqwaqwane osencibilikile,
17 Ngesikhathi sokufudumala kwazo ziyanyamalala, sekutshisa zicitshe endaweni yazo.
kodwa ikhawule ukugeleza ngesikhathi sokoma, kuthi sekutshisa amanzi anyamalale ezindleleni zawo.
18 Imikhondo yendlela yazo iyajika, yenyukele enkangala ibhubhe.
Indwendwe zamakamela ziyaphambuka ezindleleni zazo; zintule enkangala zifele khona.
19 Izihambi zeTema zakhangela, indwendwe zezihambi zeShebha zalindela kuyo.
Indwendwe zamakamela aseThema zidinga amanzi, abathengisi baseShebha balinde bethembile.
20 Zaba lenhloni ngoba zazithembile, zafika kuyo zayangeka.
Bayadana ngoba bebekade bethembile; bayafika khonale bafike badane.
21 Ngoba khathesi kalisilutho; liyabona isesabiso, liyesaba.
Lani selitshengise ukuthi kalilancedo; libona into eyesabekayo beselisesaba.
22 Ngitshilo yini ukuthi: Lethani kimi? Kumbe: Phanini isipho ngenxa yami empahleni yenu?
Sengake ngatsho yini ukuthi, ‘Ake lingihlawulele lokhu, ngihlengani ngempahla yenu,
23 Kumbe: Ngikhululani esandleni sesitha? Kumbe: Lingihlenge esandleni sabalesihluku?
ngikhululani esandleni sesitha, ngihlengani ekufithizelweni ngabalesihluku’?
24 Ngifundisani, khona mina ngizathula; lingenze ngiqedisise engiduhe khona.
Ngifundisani, ngizathula; ake lingitshengise lapho engiphambanise khona.
25 Alamandla angakanani amazwi aqotho; kodwa ukusola okuvela kini kusolani?
Abuhlungu kanganani amazwi eqiniso! Kodwa ukuphikisa kwenu kutshengisani?
26 Likhumbula amazwi okusola yini, lezinkulumo zophelelwe lithemba zingumoya?
Lizama ukuqondisa engikutshoyo, amazwi omuntu oselahlekelwe lithemba liwathethe njengomoya nje na?
27 Yebo, liziwisela phezu kwentandane, ligebhele umngane wenu umgodi.
Lina lingenza inkatho ngezintandane, lithengise lomngane wenu.
28 Ngakho-ke, vumani lingikhangele, ngoba kuphambi kobuso benu nxa ngiqamba amanga.
Kodwa okwamanje wobani lomusa lingizwele. Ngingaqamba amanga phambi kwenu na?
29 Ake liphenduke, kungabi lobubi, yebo, libuye liphenduke, ukulunga kwami kukukho.
Dedani, lingenzi okungaqondanga; khumbulani kutsha, phela ubuqotho bami busengozini.
30 Kambe kukhona ububi olimini lwami? Ukunambitha kwami bekungehlukanise yini izinto ezimbi?
Kukhona okubi na okusezindebeni zami? Kambe umlomo wami kawukwehlukanisi okubi na?”
