Ἰώβ 8
1 ὑπολαβὼν δὲ Βαλδαδ ὁ Σαυχίτης λέγει
Pamenepo Bilidadi wa ku Suki anayankha kuti,
2 μέχρι τίνος λαλήσεις ταῦτα πνεῦμα πολυρῆμον τοῦ στόματός σου
“Kodi udzakhala ukuyankhula zoterezi mpaka liti? Mawu ako ali ngati mphepo yamkuntho.
3 μὴ ὁ κύριος ἀδικήσει κρίνων ἢ ὁ τὰ πάντα ποιήσας ταράξει τὸ δίκαιον
Kodi Mulungu amapotoza chiweruzo cholungama? Kodi Wamphamvuzonse amalephera kuchita zachilungamo?
4 εἰ οἱ υἱοί σου ἥμαρτον ἐναντίον αὐτοῦ ἀπέστειλεν ἐν χειρὶ ἀνομίας αὐτῶν
Pamene ana ako anamuchimwira Mulungu, Iye anawapereka kuti alangidwe chifukwa cha tchimo lawo.
5 σὺ δὲ ὄρθριζε πρὸς κύριον παντοκράτορα δεόμενος
Koma utayangʼana kwa Mulungu, ndi kudandaulira Wamphamvuzonse,
6 εἰ καθαρὸς εἶ καὶ ἀληθινός δεήσεως ἐπακούσεταί σου ἀποκαταστήσει δέ σοι δίαιταν δικαιοσύνης
ngati uli wangwiro ndi wolungama mtima ngakhale tsopano Iye adzachitapo kanthu mʼmalo mwako ndipo adzakubwezeretsa pa malo ako oyenera.
7 ἔσται οὖν τὰ μὲν πρῶτά σου ὀλίγα τὰ δὲ ἔσχατά σου ἀμύθητα
Chiyambi chako chidzaoneka ngati chochepa koma chimaliziro chako chidzakhala chopambana.
8 ἐπερώτησον γὰρ γενεὰν πρώτην ἐξιχνίασον δὲ κατὰ γένος πατέρων
“Funsa kwa anthu amvulazakale ndipo upeze zimene makolo awo anaziphunzira
9 χθιζοὶ γάρ ἐσμεν καὶ οὐκ οἴδαμεν σκιὰ γάρ ἐστιν ἡμῶν ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς ὁ βίος
pakuti ife ndife ana adzulodzuloli ndipo sitidziwa chilichonse, ndipo moyo wathu pa dziko lapansi uli ngati chithunzithunzi.
10 ἦ οὐχ οὗτοί σε διδάξουσιν καὶ ἀναγγελοῦσιν καὶ ἐκ καρδίας ἐξάξουσιν ῥήματα
Kodi iwo sadzakulangiza ndi kukufotokozera? Kodi sadzakuwuza mawu ochokera pa zimene amazidziwa?
11 μὴ θάλλει πάπυρος ἄνευ ὕδατος ἢ ὑψωθήσεται βούτομον ἄνευ πότου
Kodi bango nʼkumera pa nthaka yopanda chinyontho? Nanga mawango nʼkukula bwino popanda madzi?
12 ἔτι ὂν ἐπὶ ῥίζης καὶ οὐ μὴ θερισθῇ πρὸ τοῦ πιεῖν πᾶσα βοτάνη οὐχὶ ξηραίνεται
Popanda madzi, zimenezi zimafota zikanali zaziwisi ndi zosadula; zimawuma msangamsanga kuposa bango.
13 οὕτως τοίνυν ἔσται τὰ ἔσχατα πάντων τῶν ἐπιλανθανομένων τοῦ κυρίου ἐλπὶς γὰρ ἀσεβοῦς ἀπολεῖται
Ndimo mmene amachitira anthu onse amene amayiwala Mulungu; ndi mmene chiyembekezo cha munthu wosapembedza Mulungu chimathera.
14 ἀοίκητος γὰρ αὐτοῦ ἔσται ὁ οἶκος ἀράχνη δὲ αὐτοῦ ἀποβήσεται ἡ σκηνή
Kulimba mtima kwake kumafowoka; zimene iye amadalira zili ngati ukonde wa kangawude.
15 ἐὰν ὑπερείσῃ τὴν οἰκίαν αὐτοῦ οὐ μὴ στῇ ἐπιλαβομένου δὲ αὐτοῦ οὐ μὴ ὑπομείνῃ
Iye amatsamira ukonde wake, koma umaduka; amawugwiritsitsa koma sulimba.
16 ὑγρὸς γάρ ἐστιν ὑπὸ ἡλίου καὶ ἐκ σαπρίας αὐτοῦ ὁ ῥάδαμνος αὐτοῦ ἐξελεύσεται
Munthu woyipayo ali ngati chomera chothiriridwa bwino chimene chili pa dzuwa, nthambi zake zimatambalala pa munda wake;
17 ἐπὶ συναγωγὴν λίθων κοιμᾶται ἐν δὲ μέσῳ χαλίκων ζήσεται
mizu yake imayanga pa mulu wa miyala ndi kufunafuna malo woti izikike pa miyalapo.
18 ἐὰν καταπίῃ ὁ τόπος ψεύσεται αὐτόν οὐχ ἑόρακας τοιαῦτα
Koma pamene yachotsedwa pamalo pakepo, pamalopo pamakana chomeracho ndi kuti, ‘Ine sindinakuonepo.’
19 ὅτι καταστροφὴ ἀσεβοῦς τοιαύτη ἐκ δὲ γῆς ἄλλον ἀναβλαστήσει
Ndithudi chomeracho chimafota, ndipo pa nthakapo pamatuluka zomera zina.
20 ὁ γὰρ κύριος οὐ μὴ ἀποποιήσηται τὸν ἄκακον πᾶν δὲ δῶρον ἀσεβοῦς οὐ δέξεται
“Ndithudi, Mulungu sakana munthu amene alibe cholakwa kapena kulimbikitsa anthu ochita zoyipa.
21 ἀληθινῶν δὲ στόμα ἐμπλήσει γέλωτος τὰ δὲ χείλη αὐτῶν ἐξομολογήσεως
Iye adzadzaza mʼkamwa mwako ndi phwete ndipo milomo yako idzafuwula ndi chimwemwe.
22 οἱ δὲ ἐχθροὶ αὐτῶν ἐνδύσονται αἰσχύνην δίαιτα δὲ ἀσεβοῦς οὐκ ἔσται
Adani ako adzachita manyazi, ndipo malo okhalamo anthu oyipa sadzaonekanso.”
