Hiob Nwoma 34

Afei Elihu kaa sɛ,

“Mo anyansafoɔ, montie me nsɛm;mo animdefoɔ monyɛ aso mma me.

Ɛfiri sɛ aso sɔ nsɛm hwɛsɛdeɛ tɛkrɛma ka aduane hwɛ no.

Momma yɛnsese nhunu deɛ ɛyɛ ma yɛn.Momma yɛn nyinaa mmɔ mu nsua deɛ ɛyɛ.

“Hiob kaa sɛ, ‘Me ho nni asɛm,nanso Onyankopɔn abu me ntɛnkyea.

Ɛwom sɛ mʼasɛm da ɛkwan mu,nanso, wɔbu me ɔtorofoɔ;ɛwom sɛ menyɛɛ bɔne biara,nanso ne bɛmma no ama me apirakuro a ɛnnwu da.’

Onipa bɛn na ɔte sɛ Hioba ɔnom animtiabuo sɛ nsuo?

Ɔne amumuyɛfoɔ nante;na ɔne atirimuɔdenfoɔ nso bɔ.

Ɛfiri sɛ ɔka sɛ, ‘Sɛ onipa bɔ mmɔden sɛ ɔbɛsɔ Onyankopɔn ani aɔnnya ho mfasoɔ biara.’

“Enti mo mmarima a mowɔ nteaseɛ montie me.Ɛmpare Onyankopɔn sɛ ɔbɛyɛ bɔne,sɛ Otumfoɔ no bɛyɛ mfomsoɔ.

Nnipa nneyɛeɛ so na ɔhwɛ tua wɔn ka;deɛ ɛfata ne nneyɛeɛ na ɔma ɛba ne so.

Ɛmfata sɛ wɔde mfomsoɔ susu Onyankopɔn,na ɛmfata sɛ wɔde ntɛnkyea susu Otumfoɔ.

Hwan na ɔde no sii asase so?Hwan na ɔde ewiase nyinaa hyɛɛ ne nsa?

Sɛ ɛyɛɛ ne pɛna ɔyii ne Honhom ne nʼahome a,

anka adasamma nyinaa bɛbɔ mu ayera,na onipa bɛsane akɔ mfuturo mu.

“Sɛ mowɔ nhunumu a, montie yei;montie deɛ meka.

Obi a ɔkyiri atɛntenenee bɛtumi adi nnipa so?Mobɛtumi abu Ɔteneneeni kɛseɛ no fɔ anaa?

Ɛnyɛ Ɔno na ɔka kyerɛ ahemfo sɛ, ‘Mo ho nni mfasoɔ,’na ɔka kyerɛɛ atitire sɛ, ‘Moyɛ atirimuɔdenfoɔ’?

Ɔnhwɛ mmapɔmma animna ɔnyiyi adefoɔ ne ahiafoɔ mu,ɛfiri sɛ wɔn nyinaa yɛ ne nsa ano adwuma.

Wɔwuwu mmerɛ tiawa bi mu, wɔ anadwo dasuo mu;nnipa no ho woso na wɔsene kɔ;ahoɔdenfoɔ totɔ a ɛmfiri onipa.

“Nʼani hwɛ nnipa akwan;na ɔhunu wɔn anammɔntuo biara.

Baabiara nni hɔ a aduru sum, esum kabii,a amumuyɛfoɔ bɛtumi ahinta.

Ɛho nhia Onyankopɔn sɛ ɔbɛhwehwɛ nnipa mu bio,a enti ɛsɛ sɛ wɔba nʼanim bɛgye atemmuo.

Ɔbobɔ aberempɔn gu a ɔnyɛ nhwehwɛmu biara,na ɔde afoforɔ sisi wɔn ananmu.

Ɛfiri sɛ ɔhunu wɔn nneyɛeɛ,ɔtu wɔn gu anadwo na wɔdwerɛ wɔn.

Ɔtua wɔn amumuyɛsɛm so kawɔ baabi a obiara bɛtumi ahunu wɔn,

ɛfiri sɛ, wɔmane firii nʼakyi kɔeɛna wɔampɛ nʼakwan biara anhwɛ.

Wɔmaa ahiafoɔ sufrɛ duruu nʼanimna ɛma ɔtee mmɔborɔni su.

Nanso sɛ ɔyɛ komm a, hwan na ɔbɛtumi abu no fɔ?Sɛ ɔde nʼanim hinta nso a, hwan na ɔbɛhunu no?Nanso ɔdi onipa ne ɔman so pɛpɛɛpɛ,

ɔmma onipa a ɔnnim Onyame nni ɔhene,sɛdeɛ wɔnnsum nnipa no mfidie.

“Adɛn enti na onipa nka nkyerɛ Onyankopɔn sɛ,‘Mayɛ bɔne na merenyɛ bɔne bio.

Kyerɛ me na menhunu;na sɛ mayɛ bɔne a, merenyɛ saa bio.’

Ɛsɛ sɛ Onyankopɔn gyina deɛ wode wʼano aka so tua wo ka,wɔ ɛberɛ a woayɛ sɛ worennu wo ho anaa?Ɛsɛ sɛ wosi gyinaeɛ, ɛnyɛ me;enti ka deɛ wonim kyerɛ me.

“Nnipa a wɔwɔ nteaseɛ pae mu ka,animdefoɔ a wɔtie me ka kyerɛ me sɛ,

‘Hiob nnkasa nimdeɛ kwan so;aba biara nni ne kasa mu.’

Ao, sɛ wɔsɔɔ Hiob hwɛeɛ kɔɔ akyiri a anka ɛyɛ,ɛfiri sɛ ɔyiyii nsɛm ano sɛ omumuyɛfoɔ!

Ɔde atuateɛ ka ne bɔne ho;ɔde ahantan bɔ ne nsam gu yɛn sona ɔma ne nsɛm a ɔka tia Onyankopɔn no dɔɔso.”
