Ayubu 30
1 Sasa vijana wananidhihaki - vijana ambao baba zao wasingeweza hata kuwahudumia mbwa wa kundi langu.
and now to laugh upon me little from me to/for day: old which to reject father their to/for to set: make with dog flock my
2 Kwa kweli, nguvu za mikono ya baba zao, zingenisaidia nini - watu ambao hawakuwa na nguvu wakati wa kukua kwao?
also strength hand their to/for what? to/for me upon them to perish vigor
3 Walidhoofishwa na umasikini na njaa; walisaga nchi kavu mafichoni.
in/on/with poverty and in/on/with famine solitary [the] to gnaw dryness last night devastation and desolation
4 Walichuma mche chumvi na majani ya vichaka; mizizi ya mti wa ufagio ilikuwa ndiyo chakula chao.
[the] to pluck mallow upon bush and root broom food their
5 Waliondolewa miongoni mwa watu waliopiga kelele nyuma yao kama ambavyo mtu angempigia kelele mwizi.
from midst to drive out: drive out to shout upon them like/as thief
6 Hivyo walipaswa kuishi katika mabonde ya mto, katika mashimo ya ardhi na miamba.
in/on/with dreadful torrent: river to/for to dwell hole dust and rock
7 Walilia kwa uchungu porini kama punda; chini ya vichaka walikutana.
between bush to bray underneath: under nettle to attach
8 Walikuwa uzao wa wapumbavu, hakika, wa watu wasiofaa; waliondolewa duniani kama waarifu.
son: type of foolish also son: child without name to whip from [the] land: country/planet
9 Lakini sasa, nimekua sababu ya wimbo wa dhihaka kwa wana wao; hakika, nimekuwa mzaa kwao.
and now music their to be and to be to/for them to/for speech
10 Wananichukia na kusimama mbali nami; hawaachi kunitemea usoni.
to abhor me to remove from me and from face my not to withhold spittle
11 Kwa maana Mungu ameondoa kamba katika upinde wangu na amenipiga, na hivyo watu hawa wanashindwa kujizuia mbele yangu.
for (cord my *Q(K)*) to open and to afflict me and bridle from face my to send: depart
12 Kundi la vijana wabaya wanashambulia nguvu zangu; wananiondolea mbali na kukusanya kinyume changu rundo la kuhusuru.
upon right brood to arise: rise foot my to send: depart and to build upon me way calamity their
13 Wanaharibu maisha yangu; wanapeleka mbele maangamizi yangu, watu wasio na wakuwazuia.
to break path my to/for desire my to gain not to help to/for them
14 Wanakuja kinyume changu kama jeshi katika tundu pana katika ukuta wa mji; katikati ya maangamizi wanajizungusha juu yangu.
like/as breach broad: wide to come underneath: stand devastation to roll
15 Hofu zimeniandama; heshima yangu imeondolewa mbali nami kama kwa upepo; mafanikio yangu yameondolewa kama wingu.
to overturn upon me terror to pursue like/as spirit: breath honor my and like/as cloud to pass salvation my
16 Sasa uhai wangu umeondolewa ndani yangu; siku nyingi za maumivu zimenipita.
and now upon me to pour: pour soul my to grasp me day affliction
17 Mifupa inauma ndani yangu wakati wa usiku; maumivu yanayonisaga hayaishi.
night bone my to dig from upon me and to gnaw me not to lie down: sleep [emph?]
18 Nguvu kuu ya Mungu imeshika mavazi yangu; yananizunguka kama kala ya vazi langu.
in/on/with many strength to search clothing my like/as lip: edge tunic my to gird me
19 Amenitupa matopeni; nimekuwa kama vumbi na majivu.
to shoot me to/for clay and to liken like/as dust and ashes
20 Nakulilia wewe, Mungu, lakini haunijibu; ninasimama, nawe unaniangalia tu.
to cry to(wards) you and not to answer me to stand: stand and to understand in/on/with me
21 Umegeuka na kuwa mkali kwangu; kwa nguvu za mkono wako umenitesa.
to overturn to/for cruel to/for me in/on/with strength hand: power your to hate me
22 Unaniinua katika upepo na kuufanya unikokote; unanirusha huku na kule katika dhoruba.
to lift: raise me to(wards) spirit: breath to ride me and to melt me (wisdom *Q(K)*)
23 Kwa maana najua ya kwamba utanipeleka mautini, nyumba ya hatima kwa viumbe vyote.
for to know death to return: return me and house: home meeting: time appointed to/for all alive
24 Lakini, je hakuna ainuaye mkono wake kuomba msaada aangukapo? Je hakuna aombaye msaada akiwa tabuni?
surely not in/on/with ruin to send: reach hand if: surely yes in/on/with disaster his to/for them cry
25 Je sikulia kwa ajili yake aliyekuwa tabuni? Je sijahuzunika kwa ajili ya mwitaji?
if: surely no not to weep to/for severe day be grieved soul my to/for needy
26 Nilipotazamia mema, ndipo yalipokuja mabaya; niliposubiri nuru, giza lilikuja badala yake.
for good to await and to come (in): come bad: evil and to wait: hope to/for light and to come (in): come darkness
27 Moyo wangu umetaabika na hautulii; siku za mateso zimenipata.
belly my to boil and not to silence: stationary to meet me day affliction
28 Nimekuwa na ngozi nyeusi lakini si kwa sababu ya jua; nasimama katika kusanyiko na kulilia msaada.
be dark to go: walk in/on/with not heat to arise: establish in/on/with assembly to cry
29 Nimekuwa ndugu kwa mbwea, mshirika wa mbuni.
brother: male-sibling to be to/for jackal and neighbor to/for daughter ostrich
30 Ngozi yangu imekuwa nyeusi na inapukutika; mifupa yangu imeunguzwa na joto.
skin my be black from upon me and bone my to scorch from drought
31 Kwa hiyo kinubi changu kimefunguliwa kwa nyimbo za maombolezo, zomari yangu kwa kuimba kwao waombolezao.
and to be to/for mourning lyre my and pipe my to/for voice to weep
