Hiob 3
1 Akyiri no Hiob kasae, na ɔdomee da a wɔwoo no.
Emva kwalokho uJobe wavula umlomo wakhe, waqalekisa usuku lwakhe.
2 Ɔkae se,
UJobe wasephendula wathi:
3 “Ma da a wɔwoo me no nyera, ne anadwo a wɔkae se, ‘Wɔawo ɔbabarima no!’
Kalubhubhe usuku engazalwa ngalo, lobusuku okwathiwa ngalo: Kukhulelwe umntwana wesilisa.
4 Saa da no nnuru sum; mma Ɔsoro Nyankopɔn nhwehwɛ akyi kwan; mma hann biara ntɔ ngu so.
Lolosuku kalube ngumnyama, uNkulunkulu angalunanzi ephezulu, lokukhanya kungalukhanyisi.
5 Ma sum ne owusum nnye no mfa; ma omununkum nkata so; na sum mmunkam ne hann so.
Umnyama lethunzi lokufa kakuluhlenge, iyezi lihlale phezu kwalo, umnyama welanga ulwesabise.
6 Ma sum kabii nnye saa anadwo no mfa; ma wonyi saa anadwo no mfi asranna so na wɔmmfa nhyɛ ɔsram biara mu.
Lobobusuku, umnyama ububambe, lungathokozi ensukwini zomnyaka, lungezi kunani lezinyanga.
7 Saa anadwo no nyɛ obonin; mma wɔnnte anigye nteɛmu wɔ mu.
Khangela, lobobusuku kabube yinyumba, umsindo wentokozo ungangeni kubo.
8 Ma wɔn a wɔdome nna no nnome saa da no; wɔn a wɔayɛ krado sɛ wɔbɛkanyan dɛnkyɛmmirampɔn no.
Kababuqalekise abaqalekisi bosuku, abalungele ukuvusa uLeviyathani.
9 Ma nʼanɔpa nsoromma nnuru sum; na ɔntwɛn adekyee kwa a onhu anɔpawia nsensanee a edi kan no,
Zibe mnyama inkanyezi zokusa kwabo, bulindele ukukhanya, kodwa kungabi khona, bungaboni inkophe zokusa.
10 efisɛ anto nea ɔwoo me no awotwaa mu ama wawo me na anka mʼani renhu saa abɛbrɛsɛ yi.
Ngoba bungavalanga iminyango yesisu sikamama wami, bungafihlanga usizi emehlweni ami.
11 “Adɛn nti na manwu awoe hɔ, bere a mifi me na awotwaa mu no?
Kungani ngingafanga kusukela esizalweni, ngiphele ekuphumeni kwami esiswini?
12 Adɛn nti na nkotodwe gyee me ne nufu sɛ minnum?
Kungani amadolo angandulela? Kungani lamabele ukuthi ngimunye?
13 Anka sesɛɛ meda hɔ asomdwoe mu; anka mada regye mʼahome
Ngoba khathesi ngabe ngacambalala ngathula, ngalala, khona ngaba lokuphumula,
14 me ne wiase ahemfo ne fotufo, wɔn a wosisii adan maa wɔn ho na nnɛ yi abubu no,
kanye lamakhosi labeluleki bomhlaba abazakhela amanxiwa,
15 me ne ahenemma a na wɔwɔ sika kɔkɔɔ, wɔn a wɔde dwetɛ hyɛɛ wɔn afi mu ma.
kumbe kanye leziphathamandla ezazilegolide ezagcwalisa izindlu zazo ngesiliva.
16 Anaasɛ adɛn nti na wɔansie me sɛ ɔpɔnba, te sɛ akokoaa a wanhu adekyee hann da?
Kumbe njengomphunzo ofihliweyo ngingabi khona, njengensane ezingabonanga ukukhanya.
17 Ɛhɔ na amumɔyɛfo gyae basabasayɛ, na abrɛfo nya ahomegye.
Lapho ababi bayekela ukuhlupha, lapho abakhathele ngamandla bephumula.
18 Nneduafo nso nya wɔn ahofadi; na wɔnte nnommumfo wuranom ateɛteɛ bio.
Izibotshwa ziyaphumula ndawonye, kazizwa ilizwi lomcindezeli.
19 Nketewa ne akɛse wɔ hɔ, na akoa de ne ho fi ne wura nsam.
Omncinyane lomkhulu balapho, lesigqili sikhululekile enkosini yaso.
20 “Adɛn nti na wɔma mmɔborɔfo hann, na ɔkra mu ahohiahiafo nya nkwa,
Kungani enika ukukhanya kohluphekayo, lempilo kwabalokubaba komphefumulo;
21 wɔn a wɔn kɔn dɔ owu nanso ɛmma, wɔn a wɔbrɛ hwehwɛ owu sen sɛnea wɔhwehwɛ nnwetɛbona,
abalindele ukufa, kodwa kungekho, bekugebha kulenotho efihliweyo,
22 wɔn a anigye ahyɛ wɔn ma na wodu ɔda mu a wodi ahurusi.
abathabayo kakhulu ngentokozo, bajabule lapho bethola ingcwaba?
23 Adɛn nti na wɔde nkwa ma onipa a ne kwan ahintaw, nea Onyankopɔn aka no ahyɛ mu?
Emuntwini yini, ondlela yakhe ifihliwe, uNkulunkulu ambiyeleyo?
24 Ahomekokogu adan mʼaduan; na mʼapinisi gu te sɛ nsu.
Ngoba ukububula kwami kuza phambi kokudla kwami, lokubhonga kwami kuthululeka njengamanzi.
25 Nea na misuro no aba me so; nea na ɛbɔ me hu no ato me.
Ngoba engikwesabayo ngokwesaba sekungehlele, lengilovalo ngakho kufikile kimi.
26 Minni ahotɔ, minni asomdwoe; minni ahomegye na mmom, ɔhaw nko ara.”
Ngangingahlalisekanga, ngingaphumuli, ngingelakuthula, lohlupho lweza.
