1 H owbeit, Job, I pray thee, hear my speech, And hearken to all my words.

Habase ahaatee, Ayuubow, waan ku baryayaaye, hadalkayga maqal, Oo erayadayda oo dhanna dhegta u dhig.

2 B ehold now, I have opened my mouth; My tongue hath spoken in my mouth.

Bal eeg haatan, afkaygaan furay, Oo carrabkaygu wuxuu ku dhex hadlay afkayga.

3 M y words shall utter the uprightness of my heart; And that which my lips know they shall speak sincerely.

Erayadaydu waxay sheegi doonaan qummanaanta qalbigayga, Oo bushimahayguna wixii ay yaqaaniin si daacad ah ayay ugu hadli doonaan.

4 T he Spirit of God hath made me, And the breath of the Almighty giveth me life.

Waxaa i sameeyey Ruuxa Ilaah, Oo waxaa i noolaysa Ilaaha Qaadirka ah neeftiisa.

5 I f thou canst, answer thou me; Set thy words in order before me, stand forth.

Haddaba haddaad kartid ii jawaab, Oo hortayda erayada si hagaagsan ugu sheeg oo istaag.

6 B ehold, I am toward God even as thou art: I also am formed out of the clay.

Bal eeg, aniguba xag Ilaah waxaan ahay sidaada oo kale; Oo anigana waxaa layga uumay dhoobo.

7 B ehold, my terror shall not make thee afraid, Neither shall my pressure be heavy upon thee.

Bal eeg, nixintaydu kuma cabsiin doonto, Oo gacantayduna kuguma cuslaan doonto.

8 S urely thou hast spoken in my hearing, And I have heard the voice of thy words, saying,

Sida xaqiiqada ah dhegahaygaad ku hadashay, Waanan maqlay codkii erayadaada oo leh,

9 I am clean, without transgression; I am innocent, neither is there iniquity in me:

Anigu nadiif baan ahay, oo xadgudubna ma lihi, Xaq ma qabo, oo xumaanuna iguma jirto innaba.

10 B ehold, he findeth occasions against me, He counteth me for his enemy:

Bal eeg, sabab uu igu eedeeyo ayuu iga helaa, Oo wuxuu igu tiriyaa inaan cadowgiisa ahay;

11 H e putteth my feet in the stocks, He marketh all my paths.

Cagahayga wuxuu geliyaa jeebbooyin, Oo jidadkayga oo dhanna wuu wada fiiriyaa.

12 B ehold, I will answer thee, in this thou art not just; For God is greater than man.

Bal eeg, waan kuu jawaabi doonaa, haddaba waxan xaq kuma tihid, Waayo, Ilaah baa binu-aadmiga ka sii weyn.

13 W hy dost thou strive against him, For that he giveth not account of any of his matters?

Haddaba maxaad isaga ula asaraartantaa? Waayo, isagu axwaalkiisa midnaba jawaab kama baxsho.

14 F or God speaketh once, Yea twice, though man regardeth it not.

Waayo, Ilaah wuxuu hadlaa mar, Ama laba jeer, in kastoo aan laga fiirsanayn.

15 I n a dream, in a vision of the night, When deep sleep falleth upon men, In slumberings upon the bed;

Riyada iyo muujinta habeennimo, Markii hurdo weynu dadka ku soo degto, Oo sariirta lagu gam'o,

16 T hen he openeth the ears of men, And sealeth their instruction,

Markaasuu dhegaha binu-aadmiga furaa, Oo waxa iyaga lagu waaniyey ayuu xaqiijiyaa,

17 T hat he may withdraw man from his purpose, And hide pride from man;

Si uu dadka uga soo celiyo qasdigooda xun, Oo uu binu-aadmiga kibir uga qariyo,

18 H e keepeth back his soul from the pit, And his life from perishing by the sword.

Oo naftiisana wuxuu dib uga hayaa yamayska, Oo noloshiisana wuxuu ka hayaa seefta.

19 H e is chastened also with pain upon his bed, And with continual strife in his bones;

Oo weliba waxaa sariirtiisa lagu kor edbiyaa xanuun, Iyo dagaal joogto ah oo lafihiisa ku dhex jira.

20 S o that his life abhorreth bread, And his soul dainty food.

Sidaas daraaddeed nafsaddiisu kibista way karahsataa, Naftiisuna cuntada macaan way nacdaa.

21 H is flesh is consumed away, that it cannot be seen; And his bones that were not seen stick out.

Hilibkiisu waa ka mudhuxsan yahay, oo mar dambe lama arki karo; Oo lafihiisii aan la arki jirinuna way soo baxaan.

22 Y ea, his soul draweth near unto the pit, And his life to the destroyers.

Hubaal naftiisu waxay ku dhow dahay yamayska, Oo noloshiisuna waxay ku dhow dahay kuwii baabbi'in lahaa.

23 I f there be with him an angel, An interpreter, one among a thousand, To show unto man what is right for him;

Hadday la joogi lahayd malaa'ig dhexdhexaadeye ah Oo ah mid kun ka mid ahu, Inay dadka tusto waxa ku qumman,

24 T hen God is gracious unto him, and saith, Deliver him from going down to the pit, I have found a ransom.

Markaas Ilaah baa u naxariista, oo wuxuu leeyahay, Yamayska uu ku sii dhacayo ka samatabbixi, Waayo, furasho baan helay.

25 H is flesh shall be fresher than a child's; He returneth to the days of his youth.

Hilibkiisu waa ka sii jilicsanaan doonaa kan ilmaha; Oo wuxuu ku noqdaa wakhtigii dhallinyaranimadiisa.

26 H e prayeth unto God, and he is favorable unto him, So that he seeth his face with joy: And he restoreth unto man his righteousness.

Isagu Ilaah buu baryaa, oo isna raalli buu ka noqdaa, Sidaas daraaddeed wejigiisa farxad buu ku arkaa; Oo wuxuu dadka u soo celiyaa xaqnimadiisa.

27 H e singeth before men, and saith, I have sinned, and perverted that which was right, And it profited me not:

Isagu dadka hortiisa buu ku gabyaa, oo wuxuu leeyahay, Waan dembaabay, oo waxaan qalloociyey wixii qummanaa, Oo taasuna layguma abaalgudin.

28 H e hath redeemed my soul from going into the pit, And my life shall behold the light.

Isagu naftayduu ka soo furtay yamayskii ay ku dhacaysay, Oo noloshayduna iftiin bay arki doontaa.

29 L o, all these things doth God work, Twice, yea thrice, with a man,

Bal eeg, waxyaalahan oo dhan Ilaah baa binu-aadmiga ku sameeya, Laba ama saddex jeer,

30 T o bring back his soul from the pit, That he may be enlightened with the light of the living.

Si uu naftiisa yamayska uga soo celiyo, In isaga lagu iftiimiyo iftiinka kuwa nool.

31 M ark well, O Job, hearken unto me: Hold thy peace, and I will speak.

Ayuubow, i maqal oo aniga i dhegayso: Adigu iska aamus, oo anna waan hadli doonaa.

32 I f thou hast anything to say, answer me: Speak, for I desire to justify thee.

Haddaad wax odhan lahayd, ii jawaab, Oo hadal, waayo, waxaan jeclahay inaan xaq kaa dhigo.

33 I f not, hearken thou unto me: Hold thy peace, and I will teach thee wisdom.

Haddii kalese, bal i dhegayso: Iska aamus, oo anna xigmad baan ku bari doonaa.
