Job 11

¹ Zophar from Naamah con answer Job and talk say,

² “Shey nobody go answer all this nonsense? To dey talk too much go put you right?

³ Job, shey you think say we no fit answer you? Shey you think say nobody go warn you when you laugh at God?

⁴ You dey claim say wetin you dey talk na true; you claim say you dey pure for God eye.

⁵ How I wish say God go answer you!

⁶ Him go tell you say plenty side dey for wisdom; e get some things wey deep pass human knowledge. God dey punish you less than wetin you deserve.

⁷ You fit find the limit of God power and him greatness?

⁸ The sky no be limit for God, but e pass wetin we fit reach. God know world of the dead, but you no know am.

⁹ God greatness big pass the earth, e wide pass sea.

¹⁰ If God arrest you and he carry you go court, who dey there to stop him?

¹¹ God know the people wey dey useless; him know all their evil work.

¹² Wild donkey no fit born man, and stupid person no go ever wise.

¹³ Job, make you reach out to God and put your heart for right way.

¹⁴ Stop to dey do evil and wrong things for your house.

¹⁵ Make you con face the world again, with courage.

¹⁶ All your trouble go fade away from your memory, like flood wey don pass wey nobody dey remember again.

¹⁷ Your life go bright pass sun for afternoon, and time of life wey dark pass go shine like morning.

¹⁸ You go live in safety and full of hope, God go protect you and him go give you rest.

¹⁹ You no go dey fear your enemy; many people go ask you for help.

²⁰ But the wicked go look around in pain and dem go see say dem no fit escape. Their only hope na to die.
