1 Ndelenee Job okwa nyamukula ndele ta ti: 2 “Ndele natango onena eli ekemo lange la fondubo. Eke lange olidjuu omolwomifudo dange. 3 Akutu, ngeno ndi shiive, nhumbi ndi mu mone opo ndi fike ko oko ta kala, 4 ngeno ndi mu hololele eendjovo dange nokuyadifa okanya kange nomahepaululo, 5 opo ndi shiive eendjovo denyamukulo laye nokuuda osho te shi lombwele nge. 6 Ye ota ka twifa nge tuu eemhata neenghonopangelo daye dinene? Ahowe, ngeno a tale nge ashike! 7 Opo nee omulumenhu omuyuki ta kala moihokolola pamwe naye, ndele ame ohandi ka pewa komutokoli wange ounongo fiyo alushe. 8 Taleni, ohandi i koushilo, Ye ke ko, nokouninginino, ndelenee itandi mu dimbulukwa, 9 ngeenge ta longo moumbangalanhu kandi mu wete; ndele ngeenge te liameke koumbuwanhu, itandi mu mono ko. 10 Osheshi okweenda kwange kwa shiivika kuye. Ngeno Ye ta konakona nge ngeno handi monika nda yela ngaashi oshingoldo. 11 Eemhadi dange da kala nokudiinina eemhadi daye. Nda shikula ondjila yaye, ame inandi yapuka mo muyo. 12 Inandi kanduka mo moshipango shomilungu daye. Eendjovo dokanya kaye nde di diinina komesho yomhangela yange. 13 Ndelenee Ye ota kala ngaashi e li, ita lunduluka, olyelye ta dulu oku mu kelela? Ndele osho we shi hala, ote shi ningi. 14 Ota wanifa osho sha sheyelwa nge, oinima ya tya ngaha ihapu i li puye natango. 15 Onghee hano ame handi hangika kehaluko koshipala shaye. Ngeenge handi shi diladila, ohandi tila. 16 Kalunga okwa teyaula po eyombamo lange, nOmunaenghono adishe a halukifa nge. 17 Osheshi itandi nyonwa po omolwomulaulu ile omolwaame mwene, omulaulu wa tuvika nge.
1 Then Job answered and said, 2 Even to day is my complaint bitter: my stroke is heavier than my groaning. 3 Oh that I knew where I might find him! that I might come even to his seat! 4 I would order my cause before him, and fill my mouth with arguments. 5 I would know the words which he would answer me, and understand what he would say unto me. 6 Will he plead against me with his great power? No; but he would put strength in me. 7 There the righteous might dispute with him; so should I be delivered for ever from my judge.
8 Behold, I go forward, but he is not there; and backward, but I cannot perceive him: 9 On the left hand, where he doth work, but I cannot behold him: he hideth himself on the right hand, that I cannot see him: 10 But he knoweth the way that I take: when he hath tried me, I shall come forth as gold. 11 My foot hath held his steps, his way have I kept, and not declined. 12 Neither have I gone back from the commandment of his lips; I have esteemed the words of his mouth more than my necessary food .
13 But he is in one mind , and who can turn him? and what his soul desireth, even that he doeth. 14 For he performeth the thing that is appointed for me: and many such things are with him. 15 Therefore am I troubled at his presence: when I consider, I am afraid of him. 16 For God maketh my heart soft, and the Almighty troubleth me: 17 Because I was not cut off before the darkness, neither hath he covered the darkness from my face.
