Hiob 11
1 Na Naamani Sofar buae se,
Forsothe Sophar Naamathites answeride, and seide,
2 “Ɛnsɛ sɛ woyi saa nsɛm yi ano ana? Ɛsɛ sɛ wobu saa ɔkasafo yi bem ana?
Whether he, that spekith many thingis, schal not also here? ether whethir a man ful of wordis schal be maad iust?
3 Wo nsɛm hunu no bɛma nnipa ayɛ komm ana? Sɛ wudi fɛw a obiara nka wʼanim ana?
Schulen men be stille to thee aloone? whanne thou hast scorned othere men, schalt thou not be ouercomun of ony man?
4 Woka kyerɛ Onyankopɔn se, ‘Me gyidi ho nni asɛm na meyɛ pɛ wɔ wʼani so.’
For thou seidist, My word is cleene, and Y am cleene in thi siyt.
5 Ao, anka mepɛ sɛ Onyankopɔn kasa, anka ɔnkasa ntia wo
And `Y wolde, that God spak with thee, and openyde hise lippis to thee;
6 na ommue nyansa mu ahintasɛm so nkyerɛ wo, efisɛ nyansa turodoo yɛ afanu. Hu sɛ Onyankopɔn werɛ afi wo bɔne no bi mpo.
to schewe to thee the priuetees of wisdom, and that his lawe is manyfold, and thou schuldist vndurstonde, that thou art requirid of hym to paie myche lesse thingis, than thi wickidnesse disserueth.
7 “Wubetumi ate Onyankopɔn anwonwade ase ana? Wubetumi abɔre ahu nea Otumfo no tumi kɔpem ana?
In hap thou schalt comprehende the steppis of God, and thou schalt fynde Almyyti God `til to perfeccioun.
8 Ɛkorɔn sen ɔsoro, dɛn na wubetumi ayɛ? Emu dɔ sen ɔda ase tɔnn, dɛn na wubetumi ahu? (Sheol h7585)
He is hiyere than heuene, and what schalt thou do? he is deppere than helle, and wherof schalt thou knowe? (Sheol h7585)
9 Ne nsusuwii mu ware sen asase na ɛtrɛw sen po.
His mesure is lengere than erthe, and brodere than the see.
10 “Sɛ ɔba de wo bɛto afiase ansa na osi nkongua a, hena na obetumi asiw no kwan?
If he distrieth alle thingis, ethir dryueth streitli `in to oon, who schal ayenseie hym? Ethir who may seie to hym, Whi doest thou so?
11 Ampa ara ohu nnipa nnaadaafo; na sɛ ohu bɔne a, ɔnhyɛ ne nsow ana?
For he knowith the vanyte of men; and whether he seynge byholdith not wickidnesse?
12 Nanso ogyimifo rentumi nyɛ onyansafo da na wɔawo afurum ba sɛ onipa.
A veyn man is reisid in to pride; and gessith hym silf borun fre, as the colt of a wilde asse.
13 “Na sɛ wode wo koma ma no na wopagyaw wo nsa kyerɛ no,
But thou hast maad stidefast thin herte, and hast spred abrood thin hondis to hym.
14 sɛ wugyaa bɔne a wukura no mu na woamma amumɔyɛ antena wo ntamadan mu a
If thou doest awei `fro thee the wickidnesse, which is in thin hond, and vnriytfulnesse dwellith not in thi tabernacle,
15 ɛno de, bɔne nni wo ho, wobɛma wo ti so; wubegyina pintinn a worensuro.
thanne thou schalt mowe reise thi face with out wem, and thou schalt be stidefast, and thou schalt not drede.
16 Wo werɛ befi wʼahokyere, na wɔbɛkae no sɛ nsu a asen kɔ.
And thou schalt foryete wretchidnesse, and thou schalt not thenke of it, as of watris that han passid.
17 Abrabɔ bɛhyerɛn asen owigyinae, na sum bɛyɛ sɛ adekyee hann.
And as myddai schynynge it schal reise to thee at euentid; and whanne thou gessist thee wastid, thou schalt rise vp as the dai sterre.
18 Wubenya bammɔ, efisɛ anidaso wɔ hɔ; wobɛhwɛ wo ho ahyia, na wahome asomdwoe mu.
And thou schalt haue trist, while hope schal be set forth to thee; and thou biried schalt slepe sikurli.
19 Wobɛda ahome, na obi renhunahuna wo, na bebree bɛhwehwɛ mmoa afi wo nkyɛn.
Thou schalt reste, and `noon schal be that schal make thee aferd; and ful many men schulen biseche thi face.
20 Amumɔyɛfo ani befura, wɔrentumi nguan; na wɔn anidaso bɛdan owu ahomegu.”
But the iyen of wickid men schulen faile; and socour schal perische fro hem, and the hope of hem schal be abhominacyioun of soule.
