Jobho 40
1 Jehovha akati kuna Jobho:
And the Lord God answered Job, and said,
2 “Ko, munhu anokakavadzana noWamasimba Ose angamurayira here? Anopomera Mwari mhosva ngaamupindure!”
Will [any one] pervert judgement with the Mighty One? and he that reproves God, let him return it for answer.
3 Ipapo Jobho akapindura Jehovha akati:
And Job answered and said to the Lord,
4 “Ini handina maturo, ndingakupindurai seiko? Ndafumbira muromo wangu.
Why do I yet plead? being rebuked even while reproving the Lord: hearing such things, whereas I am nothing: and what shall I answer to these [arguments]? I will lay my hand upon my mouth.
5 Ndakataura kamwe chete, asi handina mhinduro, kaviri, asi handichapamhidzazve.”
I have spoken once; but I will not do so a second time.
6 Ipapo Jehovha akataura naJobho ari mudutu akati:
And the Lord yet again answered and spoke to Job out of the cloud, [saying],
7 “Chizvisunga chiuno somurume; ini ndichakubvunza, uye iwe uchandipindura.
Nay, gird up now your loins like a man; and I will ask you, and do you answer me.
8 “Ko, iwe unoda kukanganisa kururamisira kwangu here? Ko, unondipomera kuti uzviruramise here?
Do not set aside my judgement: and do you think that I have dealt with you in any other way, than that you might appear to be righteous?
9 Uno ruoko rwakaita sorwaMwari here, uye inzwi rako ringatinhira serake here?
Hast you an arm like the Lord's? or do you thunder with a voice like his?
10 Chizvishongedza zvino nokukudzwa uye nokubwinya, uye zvishongedze nokuremekedzwa uye noumambo.
Assume now a lofty bearing and power; and clothe yourself with glory and honour.
11 Regedzera ukasha hwehasha dzako, utarire munhu mumwe nomumwe anozvikudza ugomuderedza,
And send forth messengers with wrath; and lay low every haughty one.
12 tarira murume mumwe nomumwe anozvikudza ugomuninipisa, pwanya vakaipa ipapo pavamire.
Bring down also the proud man; and consume at once the ungodly.
13 Uvavige vose pamwe chete muguruva; ufukidze zviso zvavo muguva.
And hide them together in the earth; and fill their faces with shame.
14 Ipapo ini pachangu ndichabvuma kwauri kuti ruoko rwako rworudyi rungakuponesa.
[Then] will I confess that your right hand can save [you].
15 “Tarisa kumvuu, yandakaita pamwe chete newe uye inofura uswa senzombe.
But now look at the wild beasts with you; they eat grass like oxen.
16 Simba rainaro muchiuno chayo, kusimba kwayo kuri mumakakava edumbu rayo.
Behold now, his strength is in his loins, and his force is in the navel of his belly.
17 Muswe wayo unotsvikidza somusidhari; marunda ezvidya zvayo akasonanidzwa.
He sets up his tail like a cypress; and his nerves are wrapped together.
18 Mapfupa ayo ipombi dzendarira, miromo yayo yakaita setsvimbo dzesimbi.
His sides are sides of brass; and his backbone is [as] cast iron.
19 Iyo iri pachinzvimbo chokutanga pakati pamabasa aMwari, asi Muiti wayo anogona kusvika pairi nomunondo wake.
This is the chief of the creation of the Lord; made to be played with by his angels.
20 Zvikomo zvinoivigira zvibereko zvayo, uye zvikara zvose zvesango zvinotambira pedyo nayo.
And when he has gone up to a steep mountain, he causes joy to the quadrupeds in the deep.
21 Inovata pasi pemiti yemirotasi yakavanda pakati petsanga munhope.
He lies under trees of every kind, by the papyrus, and reed, and bulrush.
22 Mirotasi inoivanza pamimvuri yayo; mikonachando iri mujinga morukova inoipoteredza.
And the great trees make a shadow over him with their branches, and [so do] the bushes of the field.
23 Panozara rwizi, iyo haivhunduki; inodekara zvayo, kunyange Jorodhani rukapfachukira kumuromo wayo.
If there should be a flood, he will not perceive it; he trust that Jordan will rush up into his mouth.
24 Pano munhu angagona kuibata neziso, kana kuiteya uye nokuibaya pamhino yayo here?
[Yet one] shall take him in his sight; [one] shall catch [him] with a cord, and pierce his nose.
