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?
Job
1-2 What a big help you are to me—
poor, weak man that I am!
3 You give such good advice
and share your knowledge with a fool like me!
4 Who do you think will hear all your words?
Who inspired you to speak like this?
[Bildad]
5 The spirits of the dead tremble
in the waters under the earth.
6 The world of the dead lies open to God;
no covering shields it from his sight.
7 God stretched out the northern sky
and hung the earth in empty space.
8 It is God who fills the clouds with water
and keeps them from bursting with the weight.
9 He hides the full moon behind a cloud.
10 He divided light from darkness
by a circle drawn on the face of the sea.
11 When he threatens the pillars that hold up the sky,
they shake and tremble with fear.
12 It is his strength that conquered the sea;
by his skill he destroyed the monster Rahab.
13 It is his breath that made the sky clear,
and his hand that killed the escaping monster.
14 But these are only hints of his power,
only the whispers that we have heard.
Who can know how truly great God is?
