Jobho 27
1 Zvino Jobho akapfuurira mberi nokutaura achiti:
Moreover Job continued his parable, and said,
2 “Zvirokwazvo naMwari mupenyu, iye akaramba kundiruramisira, iye Wamasimba Ose, akaita kuti ndinzwe shungu pamwoyo wangu,
As God lives, who has taken away my judgment; and the Almighty, who has vexed my soul;
3 chero ndichine upenyu mandiri, ndichine kufema kwaMwari mumhino dzangu,
All the while my breath is in me, and the spirit of God is in my nostrils;
4 miromo yangu haingatauri zvakashata, uye rurimi rwangu harungatauri nokunyengera.
My lips shall not speak wickedness, nor my tongue utter deceit.
5 Handingambobvumi kuti muri kutaura chokwadi; kusvikira ndafa, handizorambi kururama kwangu.
God forbid that I should justify you: till I die I will not remove my integrity from me.
6 Ndichachengetedza kururama kwangu uye handingakuregedzi; hana yangu haingandipi mhosva ndichiri mupenyu.
My righteousness I hold fast, and will not let it go: my heart shall not reproach me so long as I live.
7 “Vavengi vangu ngavaite savakaipa, navadzivisi vangu savasakarurama!
Let my enemy be as the wicked, and he that rises up against me as the unrighteous.
8 Ko, munhu asina Mwari ane tariro yeiko kana afa, Mwari paanotora upenyu hwake?
For what is the hope of the hypocrite, though he has gained, when God takes away his soul?
9 Ko, Mwari anoteerera kuchema kwake paanowirwa nenhamo here?
Will God hear his cry when trouble comes on him?
10 Iye angawana mufaro muna Wamasimba Ose here? Ko, achadana kuna Mwari panguva dzose here?
Will he delight himself in the Almighty? will he always call on God?
11 “Ndichakudzidzisai nezvesimba raMwari; nzira dzaWamasimba Ose handingadzivanzi.
I will teach you by the hand of God: that which is with the Almighty will I not conceal.
12 Imi mose makazviona izvi pachenyu. Zvino munotaurireiko zvisina maturo?
Behold, all you yourselves have seen it; why then are you thus altogether vain?
13 “Haano magumo anogoverwa vakaipa naMwari, iyo nhaka inogamuchirwa navanhu vano utsinye, kubva kuna Wamasimba Ose.
This is the portion of a wicked man with God, and the heritage of oppressors, which they shall receive of the Almighty.
14 Hazvinei kuti vana vake vakawanda sei, magumo avo munondo; zvizvarwa zvake hazvizombowani zvokudya zvakakwana.
If his children be multiplied, it is for the sword: and his offspring shall not be satisfied with bread.
15 Denda richaviga vaya vanenge vasara, uye chirikadzi dzavo hadzingavachemi.
Those that remain of him shall be buried in death: and his widows shall not weep.
16 Kunyange akaunganidza sirivha seguruva, uye zvokupfeka zvikaita somurwi wevhu,
Though he heap up silver as the dust, and prepare raiment as the clay;
17 zvaanowana zvichapfekwa navakarurama, uye vasina mhaka vachagovana sirivha yake.
He may prepare it, but the just shall put it on, and the innocent shall divide the silver.
18 Imba yaanovaka yakaita sedende rechipfukuto, sechirindo chakaitwa nomurindi.
He builds his house as a moth, and as a booth that the keeper makes.
19 Anovata pasi akapfuma, asi haachazviitizve; paanosvinura meso ake, wanei zvose zvaenda.
The rich man shall lie down, but he shall not be gathered: he opens his eyes, and he is not.
20 Zvinotyisa zvinomubata kufanana namafashamu; dutu rinomubvutira kure panguva yousiku.
Terrors take hold on him as waters, a tempest steals him away in the night.
21 Mhepo yokumabvazuva inomutakura ichimuendesa kure, achibva zvachose. Inomukukura kubva panzvimbo yake.
The east wind carries him away, and he departs: and as a storm hurls him out of his place.
22 Inovhuvhuta paari isingamunzwiri ngoni, paanenge achitiza akati tande achitiza simba rayo.
For God shall cast on him, and not spare: he would fain flee out of his hand.
23 Inomuomberera maoko ichimuseka, ichishinyira ichiita kuti abve panzvimbo yake.
Men shall clap their hands at him, and shall hiss him out of his place.
