1-2 Aalumentu ne aanandunge, pulakenii ndje;
ne aanawino, uvii ndje.
3 Omu shi iikulya iitoye, uuna mwe yi lolo,
ihe kamu shi kuyoolola oohapu dhoondunge moku dhi pulakena.
4 Natu moneni tse yene shoka shu uka;
natu ilongeni shoka sho opala.
5 Job okwa ti kutya oye omukeenashipo,
ihe Kalunga okwe mu tindile uuthemba we.
6 Ota ti: “Onda talwa omufundja,
nando kandi na oondjo.
Onda yahwa nda yahekeka kiikuti yaKalunga.”
7 Oku na tuu omuntu a dhina Kalunga a fa Job?
8 Oye e na ehangano naalunde
noku na ekwatathano naakaanakalunga.
9 Oye ota ti kutya itashi kwatha omuntu sha
okukambadhala o opalele Kalunga.
10 Onkee ano ne aanamayele, pulakenii ndje!
Itashi vulika Kalunga a longe uugoyoki.
Omunankondoawike ita vulu okulonga uuwinayi.
11 Oha futile aantu shi thike piilonga yawo,
note ya galulile shoka yo yene ye shi ilongela.
12 Kalunga iha puka,
Omunankondoawike iha goyokitha uuyuuki.
13 Olye e mu pe oonkondo dhokupangela,
nolye e mu langeke a tonatele uuyuni auhe?
14 Kalunga ngele ta kutha po ombepo nomufudho,
15 nena kehe omuntu ota si
nota shuna montsi yevi.
16 Ngele ou na oondunge, pulakena ndje;
pulakena shoka te popi.
17 Ngoka e tonde uuyuuki, ota vulu tuu okuninga omupangeli?
Ota vulu tuu okugandja uusama kungoka Omuyuuki nOmunankondo?
18 Kalunga oye ngoka ta geelele aakwaniilwa naanenentu
uuhethi nuukolokoshi wawo.
19 Oye iha ningile omalenga pondhipi,
ye iha tala aayamba ye vule oohepele,
oshoka oyo ayehe oya shitwa kuye.
20 Otaa si ombaadhilila mokati kuusiku.
Kalunga ota shikashika aantu, notaa kana po;
aanankondo ote ya kombo po pwaa na onkambadhala yasha.
21 Omeho ge oga tonatela oondjenda dhaantu,
notaga tala oonkatu dhawo adhihe.
22 Kaku na uuluudhe nenge omilema
tadhi vulu okuholeka aalunde.
23 Kalunga ota dhimbulula mbala kutya omuntu omushike,
opo e mu uthe.
24 Aanankondo ote ya halakanitha po pwaa na ekonakono lyasha,
nopeha lyawo ota langeke po yalwe.
25 Oshoka okwa tseya iilonga yawo;
ote ya umbile momilema, notaa yonukile mo.
26 Ote ya geelele uukolokoshi wawo montaneho yaantu ayehe,
27 molwaasho ye mu pilamene
noya dhini iipango ye.
28 Oya thininike oohepele e tadhi kugu kuKalunga,
oye noku uvu okulila kwadho e te dhi kwatha.
29 Kalunga ngele ta mwena, olye te mu tamaneke?
Ngele ta holeke oshipala she, olye te mu mono?
30 Iigwana itayi vulu okuninga sha,
opo yi keelele omapangelo omakolokoshi.
31 Job, owa hempulula tuu oondjo dhoye kuKalunga?
Owu uvaneka tuu kutya ito yono we?
32 Oto vulu okutya: “Longa ndje shoka ndaa shi shi,
nongele onda yona, itandi shi yelekele we?”
33 Kalunga oku na okutokola ando pahalo lyoye,
ngele oto tindi okwiitedhulula?
Ongoye mwene u na okutokola, hangame.
Lombwela ndje ano oshili yoye.
34 Aanandunge naalumentu aanamayele mboka yu uvu ndje,
otaa ka lombwela ndje taa ti:
35 “Job ota popi uugoya,
oohapu dhe kadhi na omayele.”
36 Sigo oompaka Job okwa popi ngaashi omulumentu omukeenakalunga.
37 Keyono lye okwa gwedhele ko okwaavulika;
ota sheke Kalunga montaneho yetu atuhe.
