Job 26
1 Ṣùgbọ́n Jobu sì dáhùn wí pé,
And Job answers and says:
2 “Báwo ni ìwọ ń ṣe ìrànlọ́wọ́ ẹni tí kò ní ipá, báwo ní ìwọ ń ṣe gbe apá ẹni tí kò ní agbára?
“How you have helped the powerless, Saved an arm not strong!
3 Báwo ni ìwọ ń ṣe ìgbìmọ̀ fun ẹni tí kò ní ọgbọ́n, tàbí báwo òye rẹ to pọ to bẹ́ẹ̀?
How you have given counsel to the unwise, And made known wise plans in abundance.
4 Ta ni ó ràn ọ́ lọ́wọ́ láti sọ àwọn ọ̀rọ̀ wọ̀nyí, àti ẹ̀mí ta ni ó gba ẹnu rẹ sọ̀rọ̀?”
With whom have you declared words? And whose breath came forth from you?
5 “Àwọn aláìlágbára ti isà òkú wárìrì, lábẹ́ omi pẹ̀lú àwọn tí ń gbé inú rẹ̀.
The Rephaim are formed, Also their inhabitants beneath the waters.
Sheol [is] naked before Him, And there is no covering to destruction. (Sheol h7585)
7 Òun ní o nà ìhà àríwá ọ̀run ní ibi òfúrufú, ó sì so ayé rọ̀ ní ojú asán.
Stretching out the north over desolation, Hanging the earth on nothing,
8 Ó di omi pọ̀ nínú ìkùùkuu àwọsánmọ̀ rẹ̀ tí ó nípọn; àwọsánmọ̀ kò sì ya nísàlẹ̀ wọn.
Binding up the waters in His thick clouds, And the cloud is not burst under them.
9 Ó sì fa ojú ìtẹ́ rẹ̀ sẹ́yìn, ó sì tẹ àwọsánmọ̀ rẹ̀ sí i lórí.
Taking hold of the face of the throne, Spreading His cloud over it.
10 Ó fi ìdè yí omi òkun ká, títí dé ààlà ìmọ́lẹ̀ àti òkùnkùn.
He has placed a limit on the waters, To the boundary of light with darkness.
11 Ọ̀wọ́n òpó ọ̀run wárìrì, ẹnu sì yà wọ́n sì ìbáwí rẹ̀.
Pillars of the heavens tremble, And they wonder because of His rebuke.
12 Ó fi ipá rẹ̀ dààmú omi Òkun; nípa òye rẹ̀, ó gé agbéraga sí wẹ́wẹ́.
By His power He has quieted the sea, And by His understanding struck the proud.
13 Nípa ẹ̀mí rẹ̀ ni ó ti ṣe ọ̀run ní ọ̀ṣọ́; ọwọ́ rẹ̀ ni ó fi dá ejò wíwọ́ nì.
He beautified the heavens by His Spirit, His hand has formed the fleeing serpent.
14 Kíyèsi i, èyí ní òpin ọ̀nà rẹ̀; ohùn èyí tí a gbọ́ ti kéré tó! Ta ni ẹni náà tí òye àrá agbára rẹ̀ lè yé?”
Behold, these [are] the borders of His way, and how little a matter is heard of Him, and who understands the thunder of His might?”
