< Job 32 >

1 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni àwọn ọkùnrin mẹ́tẹ̀ẹ̀ta wọ̀nyí dákẹ́ láti dá Jobu lóhùn, nítorí ó ṣe olódodo lójú ara rẹ̀.
So these three men ceased to answere Iob, because he esteemed himselfe iust.
2 Nígbà náà ni inú bí Elihu ọmọ Barakeli ará Busi, láti ìbátan ìdílé Ramu; ó bínú si Jobu nítorí ti ó dá ara rẹ̀ láre kàkà ki ó dá Ọlọ́run láre.
Then the wrath of Elihu the sonne of Barachel the Buzite, of the familie of Ram, was kindled: his wrath, I say, was kindled against Iob, because he iustified himselfe more then God.
3 Inú sì bí i sí àwọn ọ̀rẹ́ rẹ̀ mẹ́tẹ̀ẹ̀ta, nítorí tí wọn kò rí ọ̀nà láti dá Jobu lóhùn bẹ́ẹ̀ ni wọ́n dá Jobu lẹ́bi.
Also his anger was kindled against his three friends, because they could not finde an answere, and yet condemned Iob.
4 Ǹjẹ́ Elihu ti dúró títí tí Jobu fi sọ̀rọ̀ tán nítorí tí àwọn wọ̀nyí dàgbà ju òun lọ ní ọjọ́ orí.
(Now Elihu had wayted til Iob had spoken: for they were more ancient in yeeres then he)
5 Nígbà tí Elihu rí i pé ìdáhùn ọ̀rọ̀ kò sí ní ẹnu àwọn ọkùnrin mẹ́tẹ̀ẹ̀ta wọ̀nyí nígbà náà ni ó bínú.
So when Elihu saw, that there was none answere in the mouth of the three men, his wrath was kindled.
6 Elihu, ọmọ Barakeli, ará Busi, dáhùn ó sì wí pé, “Ọmọdé ni èmi, àgbà sì ní ẹ̀yin; ǹjẹ́ nítorí náà ní mo dúró, mo sì ń bẹ̀rù láti fi ìmọ̀ mi hàn yin.
Therefore Elihu the sonne of Barachel, the Buzite answered, and sayd, I am yong in yeres, and ye are ancient: therefore I doubted, and was afraide to shewe you mine opinion.
7 Èmi wí pé ọjọ́ orí ni ìbá sọ̀rọ̀, àti ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ ọdún ní ìbá kọ́ ni ní ọgbọ́n.
For I said, The dayes shall speake, and the multitude of yeeres shall teach wisedome.
8 Ṣùgbọ́n ẹ̀mí kan ní ó wà nínú ènìyàn àti ìmísí Olódùmarè ní ì sì máa fún wọn ní òye.
Surely there is a spirite in man, but the inspiration of the Almightie giueth vnderstanding.
9 Ènìyàn ńlá ńlá kì í ṣe ọlọ́gbọ́n, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni àwọn àgbà ní òye ẹ̀tọ́ kò yé.
Great men are not alway wise, neither doe the aged alway vnderstand iudgement.
10 “Nítorí náà ní èmí ṣe wí pé, ẹ dẹtí sílẹ̀ sí mi; èmí pẹ̀lú yóò fi ìmọ̀ mi hàn.
Therefore I say, Heare me, and I will shew also mine opinion.
11 Kíyèsi i, èmí ti dúró de ọ̀rọ̀ yín; èmi fetísí àròyé yín, nígbà tí ẹ̀yin ń wá ọ̀rọ̀ ti ẹ̀yin yóò sọ;
Behold, I did waite vpon your wordes, and hearkened vnto your knowledge, whiles you sought out reasons.
12 àní, mo fiyèsí yín tinútinú. Sì kíyèsi i, kò sí ẹnìkan nínú yín tí ó le já Jobu ní irọ́; tàbí tí ó lè dá a lóhùn àríyànjiyàn rẹ̀!
Yea, when I had considered you, lo, there was none of you that reproued Iob, nor answered his wordes:
13 Kí ẹ̀yin kí ó má ṣe wí pé, ‘Àwa wá ọgbọ́n ní àwárí; Ọlọ́run ni ó lè bì í ṣubú kì í ṣe ènìyàn.’
Lest ye should say, We haue found wisedome: for God hath cast him downe, and no man.
14 Bí òun kò ti sọ̀rọ̀ sí mi, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni èmi kì yóò fi ọ̀rọ̀ yín dá a lóhùn.
Yet hath he not directed his words to me, neyther will I answere him by your wordes.
15 “Ẹnu sì yà wọ́n, wọn kò sì dáhùn mọ́, wọ́n ṣíwọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ í sọ.
Then they fearing, answered no more, but left off their talke.
16 Mo sì retí, nítorí wọn kò sì fọhùn, wọ́n dákẹ́ jẹ́ẹ́; wọn kò sì dáhùn mọ́.
When I had wayted (for they spake not, but stood still and answered no more)
17 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni èmí ó sì dáhùn nípa ti èmi, èmí pẹ̀lú yóò sì fi ìmọ̀ mi hàn.
Then answered I in my turne, and I shewed mine opinion.
18 Nítorí pé èmi kún fún ọ̀rọ̀ sísọ, ẹ̀mí ń rọ̀ mi ni inú mi.
For I am full of matter, and the spirite within me compelleth me.
19 Kíyèsi i, ikùn mi dàbí ọtí wáìnì, tí kò ní ojú-ìhò; ó múra tán láti bẹ́ bí ìgò-awọ tuntun.
Beholde, my belly is as the wine, which hath no vent, and like the new bottels that brast.
20 Èmí ó sọ, kí ara kí ó le rọ̀ mí, èmí ó sí ètè mi, èmí ó sì dáhùn.
Therefore will I speake, that I may take breath: I will open my lippes, and will answere.
21 Lóòtítọ́ èmi kì yóò ṣe ojúsàájú sí ẹnìkankan, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni èmí kì yóò sì ṣe ìpọ́nni fún ẹnìkan.
I will not now accept the person of man, neyther will I giue titles to man.
22 Nítorí pé èmí kò mọ̀ ọ̀rọ̀ ìpọ́nni í sọ ní ṣíṣe bẹ́ẹ̀, ẹlẹ́dàá mi yóò mú mi kúrò lọ́gán.
For I may not giue titles, lest my Maker should take me away suddenly.
