Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered, |
| Je! Yapasa mtu mwenye hekima kujibu kwa ujuzi wa uvuvio, Na kujaza tumbo lake na upepo wa mashariki? Ayabu 15:2 |

| Je! Utulizi wa Mungu ni mdogo sana kwako, Na hilo neno la upole si kitu kwako? Ayabu 15:11 |
Are the consolations of God too small for you, Even the word that is gentle toward you? |
| Mbona moyo wako unakutaharakisha! Na macho yako, je! Kwani kung'ariza? Ayabu 15:12 |
Why does your heart carry you away? Why do your eyes flash, |

They conceive mischief, and bring forth iniquity. Their heart prepares deceit." |
