Surely you have spoken in ears my and [the] sound of words I heard.
9 ‘Èmi mọ́, láìní ìrékọjá, aláìṣẹ̀ ní èmi; bẹ́ẹ̀ àìṣedéédéé kò sí ní ọwọ́ mi.
[am] pure I not transgression [am] innocent I and not iniquity [belongs] to me.
10 Kíyèsi i, Ọlọ́run ti rí àìṣedéédéé pẹ̀lú mi; ó kà mí sì ọ̀tá rẹ̀.

Here! this not you are in [the] right I will answer you for he is great God more than a human.
13 Nítorí kí ni ìwọ ṣe ń bá a jà, wí pé, òun kò ní sọ ọ̀rọ̀ kan nítorí iṣẹ́ rẹ̀?
Why? against him have you contended that all words his not he answers.
14 Nítorí pe Ọlọ́run sọ̀rọ̀ lẹ́ẹ̀kan, àní, lẹ́ẹ̀kejì, ṣùgbọ́n ènìyàn kò róye rẹ̀.
For on one [occasion] he speaks God and on two [occasions] not anyone perceives it.
15 Nínú àlá, ní ojúran òru, nígbà tí orun èjìká bá kùn ènìyàn lọ, ní sísùn lórí ibùsùn,
In a dream - a vision of [the] night when falls deep sleep on people in slumber on a bed.

He will keep back life his from [the] pit and life his from passing away by missile.
19 “A sì nà án lórí ibùsùn ìrora rẹ̀; pẹ̀lúpẹ̀lú a fi ìjà egungun rẹ̀ ti ó dúró pẹ́ nà án,
And he is chastened with pain on bed his (and [the] multitude of *Q(K)*) bones his [is] constant.
20 bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ẹ̀mí rẹ kọ oúnjẹ, ọkàn rẹ̀ sì kọ oúnjẹ dídùn.

26 Ó gbàdúrà sọ́dọ̀ Ọlọ́run, òun sì ṣe ojúrere rẹ̀, o sì rí ojú rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú ayọ̀, òhun o san òdodo rẹ̀ padà fún ènìyàn.
He prays to God - and he accepted him and he saw face his with a shout of joy and he restored to a person righteousness his.
27 Ó wá sọ́dọ̀ ènìyàn ó sì wí pé, ‘Èmi ṣẹ̀, kò sì ṣí èyí tí o tọ́, mo sì ti yí èyí tí ó tọ́ po, a kò sì san ẹ̀san rẹ̀ fún mi;

He has ransomed (self his *Q(K)*) from passing on in the pit (and life his *Q(K)*) on the light it will look.
29 “Wò ó! Nǹkan wọ̀nyí ni Ọlọ́run máa ń ṣe fún ènìyàn nígbà méjì àti nígbà mẹ́ta,
Here! all these [things] he does God two times three [times] with a man.
30 láti mú ọkàn rẹ padà kúrò nínú isà òkú, láti fi ìmọ́lẹ̀ alààyè han sí i.
To bring back self his from [the] pit to be lighted up by [the] light of life.
31 “Jobu, kíyèsi i gidigidi, kí o sì fetí sí mi; pa ẹnu rẹ mọ́, èmi ó sì máa sọ ọ́.
Pay attention O Job listen to me keep quiet and I I will speak.
32 Bí ìwọ bá sì ní ohun wí, dá mi lóhùn; máa sọ, nítorí pé èmi fẹ́ dá ọ láre.

33 Bí bẹ́ẹ̀ kọ́, gbọ́ tèmi; pa ẹnu rẹ mọ́, èmi ó sì kọ́ ọ ní ọgbọ́n.”
If not you listen to me keep quiet and I will teach you wisdom.
