Job 40

Moreover the LORD answered Job, and said,
Seyè a pale ak Jòb. Li di l' konsa:
Shall he that contendeth with the Almighty instruct him? he that reproveth God, let him answer it.
-Jòb monchè, ou menm ki t'ap kenbe tèt ak Bondye ki gen tout pouvwa a, ou p'ap kite pou li? Ou menm ki t'ap kritike Bondye a, ou vle reponn li koulye a?
Then Job answered the LORD, and said,
Jòb reponn Seyè a, li di l' konsa:
Behold, I am vile; what shall I answer thee? I will lay mine hand upon my mouth.
-Mwen pa t' konn sa m' t'ap di. Kisa pou m' reponn ou? Se fèmen pou m' fèmen bouch mwen.
Once have I spoken; but I will not answer: yea, twice; but I will proceed no further.
Mwen pale twòp deja. Mwen pa gen anyen pou m' di ankò.
Then answered the LORD unto Job out of the whirlwind, and said,
Seyè a rete nan van tanpèt la, li pale ak Jòb ankò. Li di l':
Gird up thy loins now like a man: I will demand of thee, and declare thou unto me.
-Koulye a, kanpe! Mete gason sou ou! Mwen pral poze ou keksyon, se pou ou reponn mwen.
Wilt thou also disannul my judgment? wilt thou condemn me, that thou mayest be righteous?
Eske ou soti vre pou moutre se lenjistis m'ap fè ou? Se mwen menm ki antò, ou menm ou gen rezon?
Hast thou an arm like God? or canst thou thunder with a voice like him?
Eske ou gen menm fòs avè m'? Eske vwa ou ka gwonde tankou vwa pa m'?
Deck thyself now with majesty and excellency; and array thyself with glory and beauty.
Si se konsa, kanpe non! Kenbe tèt ou byen dwat! Gade tout moun nan je! Mete chèf sou ou! Fè wè pouvwa ou!
Cast abroad the rage of thy wrath: and behold every one that is proud, and abase him.
Gade moun k'ap gonfle lestonmak yo nan je. Move sou yo! Kraze kouraj yo!
Look on every one that is proud, and bring him low; and tread down the wicked in their place.
Wi. Gade yo nan je. Fè yo bese tèt yo! Kraze mechan yo la kote yo ye a!
Hide them in the dust together; and bind their faces in secret.
Mete yo tout anba tè. Mare bouch yo tout nan twou kote mò yo ye a.
Then will I also confess unto thee that thine own right hand can save thee.
Lè sa a, mwen menm, m'a fè lwanj ou, dèske avèk pwòp fòs ou ou te rive kraze yo.
Behold now behemoth, which I made with thee; he eateth grass as an ox.
Gade gwo bèt lèd yo rele Beyemòt la. Se mwen ki fè l', menm jan se mwen ki fè ou. Se zèb li manje tankou bèf.
Lo now, his strength is in his loins, and his force is in the navel of his belly.
Tout fòs li, se nan ren l'. Tout kouraj li, se nan venn vant li.
He moveth his tail like a cedar: the sinews of his stones are wrapped together.
Ke l' kanpe tankou yon pye sèd. Venn janm li yo fè boul.
His bones are as strong pieces of brass; his bones are like bars of iron.
Zo l' yo di tankou fè tiyo. Janm li yo tankou de bout fè.
He is the chief of the ways of God: he that made him can make his sword to approach unto him.
Nan tout bèt mwen fè, se li ki pote premye pri. Se mwen ki kreye l' la sèlman ki ka fè l' bat ba.
Surely the mountains bring him forth food, where all the beasts of the field play.
Li manje zèb ki pouse sou mòn kote lòt bèt nan bwa ap pran plezi yo.
He lieth under the shady trees, in the covert of the reed, and fens.
Li kouche anba raje. Li kache nan mitan wozo marekay yo.
The shady trees cover him with their shadow; the willows of the brook compass him about.
Raje yo fè lonbray pou li. Pye sikren bò larivyè yo ap pwoteje l'.
Behold, he drinketh up a river, and hasteth not: he trusteth that he can draw up Jordan into his mouth.
Larivyè ap desann, sa pa di l' anyen. Larivyè Jouden gonfle rive wotè bouch li, li kè pòpòz.
He taketh it with his eyes: his nose pierceth through snares.
Ki moun ki ka pete je l' pou mete men sou li? Ki moun ki ka pèse bwa nen l' ak yon fwenn bwa.
