Job 26

UJobe Uyaphendula

1 UJobe wasephendula wathi:

2 “Usumsize njani ongelamandla! Usuyilamulele njani ingalo ebuthakathaka!

3 Yiseluleko esinjani osusiphe lowo ongelakuhlakanipha! Belu usubonise umbono onjani!

4 Ngubani okuncedisileyo ukukhuluma amazwi la na? Ngokabani umoya okhulume ngomlomo wakho na?

5 “Abafileyo basebuhlungwini obukhulu, labo abangaphansi kwamanzi lalabo abahlala kuwo.

6 UKufa kwambulekile phambi kukaNkulunkulu; ikhamisile indawo yokuBhubha.

7 Uyawendlala umkhathi wenyakatho endaweni engelalutho; aphanyeke umhlaba phezu kweze.

8 Ugoqele amanzi emayezini akhe, kodwa amayezi kawapatshaki yikusindwa ngamanzi.

9 Uyayigubuzela inyanga egcweleyo, endlale amayezi phezu kwayo.

10 Umisa umkhawulo wokwengama komkhathi emanzini kube ngumngcele phakathi kokukhanya lobumnyama.

11 Izinsika zamazulu ziyazamazama, zisethuswa yikukhuza kwakhe.

12 Ngamandla akhe waluthulisa ulwandle; ngenhlakanipho yakhe waquma uRahabi waba yiziqa.

13 Ngomoya wakhe umkhathi wacethula; isandla sakhe sayigwaza inyoka ibaleka.

14 Njalo le yimisebenzi yakhe engaphandle nje ekucineni; esikuzwayo yilizwana nje lokunyenyeza kwakhe! Pho ngubani ongawuzwisisa umdumo wamandla akhe na?”
