Hiob 11
1 Na Naamani Sofar buaa sɛ,
UZofari umNahama wasephendula wathi:
2 “Ɛnsɛ sɛ wɔyi saa nsɛm yi ano anaa? Ɛsɛ sɛ wɔbu saa ɔkasafoɔ yi bem anaa?
“Uthi amazwi wonke la angayekelwa ukuphendulwa na? Uwawane lolu luyekelwe nje lubheda?
3 Wo nsɛm hunu no bɛma nnipa ayɛ komm anaa? Sɛ wodi fɛ a obiara renka wʼanim anaa?
Umbhedo wakho lo ungenza abantu bathule na? Uthi ungangakhuzwa muntu wena ukhulumela eceleni?
4 Woka kyerɛ Onyankopɔn sɛ, ‘Me gyidie ho nni asɛm na meyɛ pɛ wɔ wʼani so.’
Uthi kuNkulunkulu, ‘Inkolo yami kayilansolo njalo ngimsulwa phambi kwakho.’
5 Ao, anka mepɛ sɛ Onyankopɔn kasa, anka ɔnkasa ntia wo
Oh, ngize ngifise ukuthi ngabe uNkulunkulu uyakhuluma, avule izindebe zakhe ekusola
6 na ɔmmue nyansa mu ahintasɛm so nkyerɛ wo, ɛfiri sɛ nyansa turodoo yɛ afanu. Hunu yei sɛ, Onyankopɔn werɛ afiri wo bɔne no bi mpo.
akuvulele imfihlo zokuhlakanipha, ngoba inhlakanipho yeqiniso ikabili. Yazi lokhu: UNkulunkulu uvele usezikhohliwe ezinye izono zakho.
7 “Wobɛtumi ate Onyankopɔn anwanwadeɛ ase anaa? Wobɛtumi abɔre ahunu deɛ Otumfoɔ no tumi kɔpem anaa?
Kambe ungayifinyelela yini imfihlakalo kaNkulunkulu? Ungaziphenya iziphetho zikaSomandla na?
8 Ɛkorɔn sene ɔsoro, ɛdeɛn na wobɛtumi ayɛ? Emu dɔ sene damena ase tɔnn, ɛdeɛn na wobɛtumi ahunu? (Sheol h7585)
Ziqongile ngaphezu kwamazulu, ungenzani kambe? Zizikile kulokujula kolwandle, kuyini ongakwazi pho? (Sheol h7585)
9 Ne nsusuiɛ mu ware sene asase na ɛtrɛ sene ɛpo.
Ukulinganiswa kwazo kude kulomhlaba njalo kubanzi kulolwandle.
10 “Sɛ ɔba na ɔde wo to nneduadan mu ansa na wasi nkonnwa a, hwan na ɔbɛtumi asi no ɛkwan?
Nxa engeza lapha akuphosele entolongweni abize inkundla, ngubani ongamphikisa na?
11 Ampa ara ɔhyɛ nnipa nnaadaafoɔ nso; na sɛ ɔhunu amumuyɛ a, ɔnhyɛ ne nso anaa?
Liqiniso ukuthi uyababona abantu abakhohlisayo; njalo nxa ebona okubi, kananzeleli na?
12 Nanso ogyimifoɔ rentumi nyɛ onyansafoɔ sɛdeɛ wɔrentumi nwo afunumu ba sɛ onipa no.
Kodwa umuntu oyisithutha ngeke ahlakaniphe njengoba ubabhemi weganga engeke azalwa ngumuntu.
13 “Na sɛ wode wʼakoma ma no na wopagya wo nsa kyerɛ no,
Kodwa nxa ugxilisa inhliziyo yakho kuye uphakamisele izandla zakho kuye,
14 sɛ wogyaa bɔne a wokura no mu na woamma amumuyɛ antena wo ntomadan mu a,
nxa ulahla isono esisesandleni sakho ungavumeli bubi buhlale ethenteni lakho,
15 ɛnneɛ, wobɛpagya wo ti a womfɛre; wobɛgyina pintinn a wonsuro.
lapho-ke uzabuveza ubuso bakho ungelanhloni; uzakuma uqine ungesabi.
16 Wo werɛ bɛfiri wʼahokyere, na ɛbɛyɛ wo sɛ nsuo a asene korɔ.
Uzalukhohlwa ngempela uhlupho lwakho, lufike nje engqondweni njengezikhukhula ezadlulayo.
17 Wʼabrabɔ bɛhyerɛn asene owigyinaeɛ, na esum bɛyɛ sɛ adekyeɛ hann.
Impilo izakhanya kulemini enkulu, lobumnyama buzakuba njengasekuseni.
18 Wobɛnya banbɔ, ɛfiri sɛ anidasoɔ wɔ hɔ; wobɛhwɛ wo ho ahyia, na wahome asomdwoeɛ mu.
Uzavikeleka, ngoba ithemba likhona; uzakhangela ofuna khona uzuze ukuphumula uvikelekile.
19 Wobɛda ahome, na obi renhunahuna wo, na bebree bɛhwehwɛ mmoa afiri wo nkyɛn.
Uzazilalela, kungekho okwethusayo, njalo abanengi bazabe sebezisondeza kuwe.
20 Amumuyɛfoɔ ani bɛfira, wɔrentumi nnwane; na wɔn anidasoɔ bɛdane owuo ahomeguo.”
Kodwa amehlo ababi azafiphala, behluleke lokubaleka; ithemba labo libe yikuhotsha umoya wokufa.”
