| Palikuwa na mtu katika nchi ya Usi, jina lake alikuwa akiitwa Ayubu; mtu huyo alikuwa mkamilifu na mwelekevu, ni mmoja aliyemcha Mungu, na kuepukana na uovu. Ayabu 1:1 |
There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job. That man was blameless and upright, and one who feared God, and turned away from evil. |
| Kisha walizaliwa kwake wana saba, na binti watatu. Ayabu 1:2 |
There were born to him seven sons and three daughters. |
| Mali yake nayo yalikuwa ni kondoo elfu saba, na ngamia elfu tatu, na jozi za ng'ombe mia tano, na punda wake mia tano, na watu wa nyumbani wengi sana; basi hivi mtu huyo alikuwa ni mkuu sana kuliko watu wote wa upande wa mashariki. Ayabu 1:3 |
His possessions also were seven thousand sheep, three thousand camels, five hundred yoke of oxen, five hundred she-donkeys, and a very great household; so that this man was the greatest of all the children of the east. |
| Nao wanawe huenda na kufanya karamu katika nyumba ya kila mmoja wao kwa siku yake; nao wakatuma na kuwaita maumbu yao watatu ili waje kula na kunywa pamoja nao. Ayabu 1:4 |
His sons went and held a feast in the house of each one on his birthday; and they sent and called for their three sisters to eat and to drink with them. |
| Basi ilikuwa, hapo hizo siku za karamu zao zilipokuwa zimetimia, Ayubu hutuma kwao akawatakasa, kisha akaamka asubuhi na mapema, na kusongeza sadaka za kuteketezwa kama hesabu yao wote ilivyokuwa; kwani Ayubu alisema, Yumkini kwamba hawa wanangu wamefanya dhambi, na kumkufuru Mungu mioyoni mwao. Ndivyo alivyofanya Ayubu sikuzote. Ayabu 1:5 |
It was so, when the days of their feasting had run their course, that Job sent and sanctified them, and rose up early in the morning, and offered burnt offerings according to the number of them all. For Job said, "It may be that my sons have sinned, and renounced God in their hearts." Thus did Job continually. |
| Ilikuwa, siku moja ambayo hao wana wa Mungu walikwenda kujihudhurisha mbele za Bwana, Shetani naye akaenda kati yao. Ayabu 1:6 |
Now it happened on the day when the sons of God came to present themselves before Yahweh, that Satan also came among them. |
| Bwana akamwuliza Shetani, Umetoka wapi wewe? Ndipo Shetani akamjibu Bwana, na kusema, Natoka katika kuzunguka-zunguka duniani, na katika kutembea huku na huku humo. Ayabu 1:7 |
Yahweh said to Satan, "Where have you come from?" Then Satan answered Yahweh, and said, "From going back and forth in the earth, and from walking up and down in it." |
| Kisha Bwana akamwuliza Shetani, Je! Umemwangalia huyo mtumishi wangu Ayubu? Kwa kuwa hapana mmoja aliye kama yeye duniani, mtu mkamilifu na mwelekevu, mwenye kumcha Mungu na kuepukana na uovu. Ayabu 1:8 |
Yahweh said to Satan, "Have you considered my servant, Job? For there is none like him in the earth, a blameless and an upright man, one who fears God, and turns away from evil." |
| Ndipo Shetani akamjibu Bwana, na kusema, Je! Huyo Ayubu yuamcha Bwana bure? Ayabu 1:9 |
Then Satan answered Yahweh, and said, "Does Job fear God for nothing? |
| Wewe hukumzingira kwa ukigo pande zote, pamoja na nyumba yake, na vitu vyote alivyo navyo? Kazi za mikono yake umezibarikia, nayo mali yake imeongezeka katika nchi. Ayabu 1:10 |
Haven't you made a hedge around him, and around his house, and around all that he has, on every side? You have blessed the work of his hands, and his substance is increased in the land. |
| Lakini nyosha mkono wako sasa, uyaguse hayo yote aliyo nayo, naye atakukufuru mbele za uso wako. Ayabu 1:11 |
But put forth your hand now, and touch all that he has, and he will renounce you to your face." |
| Bwana akamwambia Shetani, Tazama, yote aliyo nayo yamo katika uwezo wako; lakini usinyoshe mkono wako juu yake yeye mwenyewe. Basi Shetani akatoka mbele za uso wa Bwana. Ayabu 1:12 |
Yahweh said to Satan, "Behold, all that he has is in your power. Only on himself don't put forth your hand." So Satan went forth from the presence of Yahweh. |
| Ilitukia siku moja hao wanawe na binti zake walipokuwa wakila na kunywa divai katika nyumba ya ndugu yao mkubwa, Ayabu 1:13 |
It fell on a day when his sons and his daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother's house, |
| mjumbe akamfikilia Ayubu na kumwambia, Hao ng'ombe walikuwa wakilima, na punda walikuwa wakilisha karibu nao; Ayabu 1:14 |
that there came a messenger to Job, and said, "The oxen were plowing, and the donkeys feeding beside them, |
| mara Waseba wakawashambulia, wakawachukua wakaenda nao; naam, wamewaua hao watumishi kwa makali ya upanga, mimi peke yangu nimepona, mimi tu, kukuletea habari. Ayabu 1:15 |
and the Sabeans attacked, and took them away. Yes, they have killed the servants with the edge of the sword, and I alone have escaped to tell you." |
| Huyo alipokuwa akali akinena, akatokea na mwingine, na kusema, Moto wa Mungu umeanguka kutoka mbinguni na kuwateketeza kondoo, na wale watumishi, na kuwaangamiza; mimi peke yangu nimepona, mimi tu, kukuletea habari. Ayabu 1:16 |
While he was still speaking, there also came another, and said, "The fire of God has fallen from the sky, and has burned up the sheep and the servants, and consumed them, and I alone have escaped to tell you." |
| Huyo alipokuwa akali akinena, akatokea na mwingine, na kusema, Wakaldayo walifanya vikosi vitatu, wakawaangukia ngamia, wakaenda nao, naam, wamewaua wale watumishi kwa makali ya upanga; mimi peke yangu nimepona, mimi tu, kukuletea habari. Ayabu 1:17 |
While he was still speaking, there came also another, and said, "The Chaldeans made three bands, and swept down on the camels, and have taken them away, yes, and killed the servants with the edge of the sword; and I alone have escaped to tell you." |
| Huyo alipokuwa akali akinena, akatokea na mwingine, na kusema, Wanao na binti zako walikuwa wakila na kunywa divai katika nyumba ya ndugu yao mkubwa; Ayabu 1:18 |
While he was still speaking, there came also another, and said, "Your sons and your daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother's house, |
| mara, tazama, upepo wenye nguvu ukatoka pande za jangwani, ukaipiga hiyo nyumba pembe zake nne, nayo ikawaangukia hao vijana, nao wamekufa; na mimi peke yangu nimepona, mimi tu, kukuletea habari. Ayabu 1:19 |
and, behold, there came a great wind from the wilderness, and struck the four corners of the house, and it fell on the young men, and they are dead. I alone have escaped to tell you." |
| Ndipo Ayubu akainuka, akalirarua joho lake, kisha akanyoa kichwa chake, na kuanguka chini, na kusujudia; Ayabu 1:20 |
Then Job arose, and tore his robe, and shaved his head, and fell down on the ground, and worshiped. |
| akasema, Mimi nilitoka tumboni mwa mama yangu nili uchi, nami nitarudi tena huko uchi vilevile; Bwana alitoa, na Bwana ametwaa; jina la Bwana na libarikiwe. Ayabu 1:21 |
He said, "Naked I came out of my mother's womb, and naked shall I return there. Yahweh gave, and Yahweh has taken away. Blessed be the name of Yahweh." |
| Katika mambo hayo yote Ayubu hakufanya dhambi, wala hakumwazia Mungu kwa upumbavu. Ayabu 1:22 |
In all this, Job did not sin, nor charge God with wrongdoing. |
