Job 5 - Listen Online

¹ NJẸ pè nisisiyi! bi ẹnikan ba wà ti yio da ọ lohùn, tabi tani ninu awọn ẹni-mimọ́ ti iwọ o wò?

¹ Call now, if there be any that will answer thee; and to which of the saints wilt thou turn?

² Nitoripe ibinu pa alaimoye, irúnu a si pa òpe enia.

² For wrath killeth the foolish man, and envy slayeth the silly one.

³ Emi ti ri alaimoye ti o ta gbongbò mulẹ̀, ṣugbọn lojukanna mo fi ibujoko rẹ̀ bú.

³ I have seen the foolish taking root: but suddenly I cursed his habitation.

⁴ Awọn ọmọ rẹ̀ kò jina sinu ewu, a si tẹ̀ wọn mọlẹ loju ibode, bẹ̃ni kò si alãbò kan.

⁴ His children are far from safety, and they are crushed in the gate, neither is there any to deliver them.

⁵ Ikore oko ẹniti awọn ẹniti ebi npa jẹrun, ti nwọn si wọnú ẹ̀gun lọ ikó, awọn igara si gbe ohùn ini wọn mì.

⁵ Whose harvest the hungry eateth up, and taketh it even out of the thorns, and the robber swalloweth up their substance.

⁶ Bi ipọnju kò tilẹ̀ tinu erupẹ jade wá nì, ti iyọnu kò si tinu ilẹ hù jade wá.

⁶ Although affliction cometh not forth of the dust, neither doth trouble spring out of the ground;

⁷ Ṣugbọn a bi enia sinu wàhala, gẹgẹ bi ìpẹpẹ iná ti ima ta sokè.

⁷ Yet man is born unto trouble, as the sparks fly upward.

⁸ Sọdọ Ọlọrun li emi lè ma ṣe awári, li ọwọ Ọlọrun li emi lè ma fi ọ̀ran mi le.

⁸ I would seek unto God, and unto God would I commit my cause:

⁹ Ẹniti o ṣe ohun ti o tobi, ti a kò lè iṣe awári, ohun iyanu laini iye.

⁹ Which doeth great things and unsearchable; marvellous things without number:

¹⁰ Ti nrọ̀jo si ilẹ aiye, ti o si nrán omi sinu ilẹ̀kilẹ.

¹⁰ Who giveth rain upon the earth, and sendeth waters upon the fields:

¹¹ Lati gbe awọn onirẹlẹ leke, ki a le igbé awọn ẹni ibinujẹ ga si ibi ailewu.

¹¹ To set up on high those that be low; that those which mourn may be exalted to safety.

¹² O yi ìmọ awọn alarekerekè po, bẹ̃li ọwọ wọn kò lè imu idawọle wọn ṣẹ.

¹² He disappointeth the devices of the crafty, so that their hands cannot perform their enterprise.

¹³ O mu awọn ọlọgbọ́n ninu arekereke ara wọn, ati ìmọ awọn onroro li o tãri ṣubu li ògedengbè.

¹³ He taketh the wise in their own craftiness: and the counsel of the froward is carried headlong.

¹⁴ Nwọn sure wọ inu òkunkun li ọ̀san, nwọn si nfọwọ talẹ̀ li ọ̀sangangan bi ẹnipe li oru.

¹⁴ They meet with darkness in the daytime, and grope in the noonday as in the night.

¹⁵ Ṣugbọn o gba talakà là kuro li ọwọ idà, lọwọ ẹnu wọn, ati lọwọ awọn alagbara.

¹⁵ But he saveth the poor from the sword, from their mouth, and from the hand of the mighty.

¹⁶ Bẹ̃ni abá wà fun talaka, aiṣotitọ si pa ẹnu rẹ̀ mọ.

¹⁶ So the poor hath hope, and iniquity stoppeth her mouth.

¹⁷ Kiyesi i, ibukún ni fun ẹniti Ọlọrun bawi, nitorina má ṣe gan ìbawi Olodumare.

¹⁷ Behold, happy is the man whom God correcteth: therefore despise not thou the chastening of the Almighty:

¹⁸ Nitoripe on a mu ni lara kan, a si di idi itura, o ṣa lọgbẹ, ọwọ rẹ̀ a si mu jina.

¹⁸ For he maketh sore, and bindeth up: he woundeth, and his hands make whole.

¹⁹ Yio gbà ọ ninu ipọnju mẹfa, ani ninu meje ibi kan kì yio ba ọ.

¹⁹ He shall deliver thee in six troubles: yea, in seven there shall no evil touch thee.

²⁰ Ninu ìyan yio gbà ọ lọwọ ikú, ati ninu ogun yio gbà ọ lọwọ idà.

²⁰ In famine he shall redeem thee from death: and in war from the power of the sword.

²¹ A o pa ọ mọ kuro lọwọ ìna ahọn, bẹ̃ni iwọ kì yio bẹ̀ru iparun nigbati o ba dé.

²¹ Thou shalt be hid from the scourge of the tongue: neither shalt thou be afraid of destruction when it cometh.

²² Ẹrin iparun ati ti iyàn ni iwọ o rín, bẹ̃ni iwọ kì yio bẹ̀ru ẹranko ilẹ aiye.

²² At destruction and famine thou shalt laugh: neither shalt thou be afraid of the beasts of the earth.

²³ Nitoripe iwọ o ba okuta ìgbẹ mulẹ̀, awọn ẹranko ìgbẹ yio wà pẹlu rẹ li alafia.

²³ For thou shalt be in league with the stones of the field: and the beasts of the field shall be at peace with thee.

²⁴ Iwọ o si mọ̀ pe alafia ni ibujoko rẹ wà, iwọ o si ma ṣe ibẹ̀wo ibujoko rẹ, iwọ kì yio ṣìna.

²⁴ And thou shalt know that thy tabernacle shall be in peace; and thou shalt visit thy habitation, and shalt not sin.

²⁵ Iwọ o si mọ̀ pẹlu pe iru-ọmọ rẹ yio si pọ̀, ati awọn ọmọ-ọmọ rẹ yio ri bi koriko ìgbẹ.

²⁵ Thou shalt know also that thy seed shall be great, and thine offspring as the grass of the earth.

²⁶ Iwọ o wọ isa-okú rẹ lọ li ògbologbo ọjọ bi apo-ọka ti o gbó, ti a si nko ni igbà ikore rẹ̀.

²⁶ Thou shalt come to thy grave in a full age, like as a shock of corn cometh in in his season.

²⁷ Kiyesi i, awa ti nwadi rẹ̀, bẹ̃li o ri! gbà a gbọ́, ki o si mọ̀ pe fun ire ara rẹ ni!

²⁷ Lo this, we have searched it, so it is; hear it, and know thou it for thy good.
