< Job 26 >

1 But Job answered and said,
Kisha Ayubu akajibu na kusema,
2 How hast thou helped [him that is] without power? [how] savest thou the arm [that hath] no strength?
“Mmemsaidiaje aliyedhaifu!
3 How hast thou counselled [him that hath] no wisdom? and [how] hast thou plentifully declared the thing as it is?
Jinsi gani mmemshauri asiye na hekima na kutamka maneno yenye maarifa kwake!
4 To whom hast thou uttered words? and whose spirit came from thee?
Kwa msaada wa nani mmesema maneno haya? Ni roho ya nani iliyotoka ndani yenu?
5 Dead [things] are formed from under the waters, and the inhabitants thereof.
Maiti inatetemeka chini ya maji, na vyote wilivyomo ndani yake.
6 Hell [is] naked before him, and destruction hath no covering. (Sheol h7585)
Kuzimu kuko wazi mbele ya Mungu; uharibifu hauna kizuizi dhidi yake. (Sheol h7585)
7 He stretcheth out the north over the empty place, [and] hangeth the earth upon nothing.
Huitandaza kaskazi juu ya nafasi wazi na kuining'iniza dunia hewani.
8 He bindeth up the waters in his thick clouds; and the cloud is not rent under them.
Huyafunga maji katika mawingu yake mazito, lakini hayagawanyiki chini yake.
9 He holdeth back the face of his throne, [and] spreadeth his cloud upon it.
Huufunika uso wa mwezi na kueneza mawingu yake juu yake.
10 He hath compassed the waters with bounds, until the day and night come to an end.
Amechora ukingo wa duara juu ya maji kama mpaka kati ya nuru na giza.
11 The pillars of heaven tremble and are astonished at his reproof.
Nguzo za mbinguni zinatikisika na zimestushwa na kukemea kwake.
12 He divideth the sea with his power, and by his understanding he smiteth through the proud.
Aliituliza bahari kwa uwezo wake; kwa ufahamu wake alimwaribu Rahab
13 By his spirit he hath garnished the heavens; his hand hath formed the crooked serpent.
Kwa pumzi yake, aliziondoa mbingu kwa dhorubu; mbingu ziliondolewa kwa dhorubu; mkono wake ulimchoma nyoka anayekimbia.
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?
Tazama, hizi si zaidi ya madogo ya njia zake; Jinsi gani tunasikia akitunong'oneza! Ni nani awezaye kufahamu uwezo wake.
