< Ayubu 26 >
1 Kisha Ayubu akajibu na kusema,
But Job answered and said,
2 “Mmemsaidiaje aliyedhaifu!
How have you helped him that is without power? how save you the arm that has no strength?
3 Jinsi gani mmemshauri asiye na hekima na kutamka maneno yenye maarifa kwake!
How have you counselled him that has no wisdom? and how have you plentifully declared the thing as it is?
4 Kwa msaada wa nani mmesema maneno haya? Ni roho ya nani iliyotoka ndani yenu?
To whom have you uttered words? and whose spirit came from you?
5 Maiti inatetemeka chini ya maji, na vyote wilivyomo ndani yake.
Dead things are formed from under the waters, and the inhabitants thereof.
6 Kuzimu kuko wazi mbele ya Mungu; uharibifu hauna kizuizi dhidi yake. (Sheol )
Hell is naked before him, and destruction has no covering. (Sheol )
7 Huitandaza kaskazi juu ya nafasi wazi na kuining'iniza dunia hewani.
He stretches out the north over the empty place, and hangs the earth upon nothing.
8 Huyafunga maji katika mawingu yake mazito, lakini hayagawanyiki chini yake.
He binds up the waters in his thick clouds; and the cloud is not rent under them.
9 Huufunika uso wa mwezi na kueneza mawingu yake juu yake.
He holds back the face of his throne, and spreads his cloud upon it.
10 Amechora ukingo wa duara juu ya maji kama mpaka kati ya nuru na giza.
He has compassed the waters with bounds, until the day and night come to an end.
11 Nguzo za mbinguni zinatikisika na zimestushwa na kukemea kwake.
The pillars of heaven tremble and are astonished at his reproof.
12 Aliituliza bahari kwa uwezo wake; kwa ufahamu wake alimwaribu Rahab
He divides the sea with his power, and by his understanding he strikes through the proud.
13 Kwa pumzi yake, aliziondoa mbingu kwa dhorubu; mbingu ziliondolewa kwa dhorubu; mkono wake ulimchoma nyoka anayekimbia.
By his spirit he has garnished the heavens; his hand has formed the crooked serpent.
14 Tazama, hizi si zaidi ya madogo ya njia zake; Jinsi gani tunasikia akitunong'oneza! Ni nani awezaye kufahamu uwezo wake.
Lo, these are parts of his ways: but how little a portion is heard of him? but the thunder of his power who can understand?
