1 But Job answered and said, 2 How hast thou helped him that is without power? how savest thou the arm that hath no strength? 3 How hast thou counselled him that hath no wisdom? and how hast thou plentifully declared the thing as it is? 4 To whom hast thou uttered words? and whose spirit came from thee?
5 Dead things are formed from under the waters, and the inhabitants thereof. 6 Hell is naked before him, and destruction hath no covering. 7 He stretcheth out the north over the empty place, and hangeth the earth upon nothing. 8 He bindeth up the waters in his thick clouds; and the cloud is not rent under them. 9 He holdeth back the face of his throne, and spreadeth his cloud upon it. 10 He hath compassed the waters with bounds, until the day and night come to an end. 11 The pillars of heaven tremble and are astonished at his reproof. 12 He divideth the sea with his power, and by his understanding he smiteth through the proud. 13 By his spirit he hath garnished the heavens; his hand hath formed the crooked serpent. 14 Lo, these are parts of his ways: but how little a portion is heard of him? but the thunder of his power who can understand?
Job ta yamukula
1-2 Owa kwatha ngiini omunkundi!
Owa koleke tuu omaako ga loloka?
3 Omayele ogeni po wa nongeke omusama?
Uunongo ou thike peni we u holola?
4 Olye e ku popitha oohapu ndhika?
Owa hwamekwa kombepo yini po, u dhi tye?
5 Aasi oye li muumbanda uunene,
ayehe mboka ye li mevi kohi yomeya.
6 Uusi ou li puuyelele koshipala shaKalunga,
noshaasi oshi li pontundulu.
7 Kalunga ota yalaleke eyalelo lyokuumbangalantu,
nota tula evi powalawala.
8 Ota kaleke omeya miikogo,
niikogo itayi tuuka kuudhigu wago.
9 Omwedhi gwa toka ote gu kwidhidhike,
note gu siikilitha iikogo.
10 Ota tende omusinda kombanda yomeya
nota yoolola uuyelele momilema.
11 Oongundhi dheyalelo otadhi tenguka
notadhi tila kegando lye.
12 Koonkondo dhe ota tukulutha efuta,
nokomayele ge ota teyagula po evovo Rahab.
13 Omufudho gwe otagu yeleke eyalelo;
iikaha ye otayi dhipaga eninangamba lya kotoka.
14 Ayihe mbika otayi ulike oonkondo dhe;
oyo enongono lyowala momakutsi getu.
Olye tu uvu ko uunene woonkondo dhaKalunga?
