Jòb 38
Haitian Creole Version
38 ¶ Lè sa a, nan yon gwo van tanpèt, Seyè a pale ak Jòb. Li di l' konsa:
2 -Kisa ou ye menm pou w'ap poze keksyon sou plan travay mwen ak yon bann diskou ki pa vle di anyen?
3 Mete gason sou ou! M' pral poze ou keksyon. Pare kò ou pou ou reponn mwen.
4 ¶ Kote ou te ye lè m' t'ap fè latè? Se pou ou reponn mwen si ou konn tout bagay!
5 Ki moun ki te deside lajè l'ap genyen? Ki moun ki te pran mezi l'? Eske ou konn sa?
6 Sou kisa fondasyon latè chita? Ki moun ki te poze wòch ki kenbe l' la?
7 Jou maten sa a, tout zetwal yo t'ap chante, tout sèvitè Bondye yo t'ap bat bravo.
8 Ki moun ki fèmen pòtay pou bare lanmè a, lè li pete soti nan vant latè a?
9 Lè mwen kouvri lanmè a ak nwaj, lè mwen vlope l' nan gwo nwaj nwa yo,
10 mwen bay lanmè a bòn li. Mwen mete pòt avèk kle pou kenbe l' nan plas li.
11 Mwen di l': Men limit ou. Pa depase l'. Se la m'ap kraze fòs lanm ou yo.
12 ¶ Jòb, èske yon sèl fwa ou janm bay lòd pou maten rive? Ou janm bay lè pou bajou kase?
13 Eske ou janm bay devanjou l' lòd pou l' klere sou tout latè, l' pou l' fè mechan yo soti nan twou yo?
14 Lè sa a, tout mòn yo ak tout fon yo parèt aklè, tankou mak pye bèt nan labou. Yo pran koulè yo, ou ta di yon rad latè mete sou li.
15 Limyè solèy la antrave mechan yo nan travay yo. Yo blije kite mechanste yo te pare pou fè a.
16 Eske ou te desann jouk kote sous lanmè a pete a? Eske ou te mache nan fon lanmè a?
17 Eske yo te janm moutre ou pòtay peyi lanmò a? Eske ou te janm wè pòt ki louvri sou gwo twou san fon an?
18 Eske ou gen lide ki lajè latè a genyen? Reponn mwen non, si ou konnen!
19 Eske ou konnen ki bò limyè soti, ki bò fènwa rete,
20 pou ou ka moutre yo jouk ki bò pou yo ale, osinon pou ou voye yo tounen lakay yo?
21 Si ou konn sa, enben, ou te fèt deja lè mwen t'ap kreye yo a. Ou pa manke gen laj sou tèt ou!
22 Eske ou janm rive kote yo fè depo lanèj lan? Ou janm wè depo lagrèl la?
23 Ou konnen depo kote m' sere yo pou lè gen move tan, pou lè batay ak lagè ap fèt?
24 Ou konnen ki bò solèy la leve, ki bò van lès la soti pou l' soufle sou latè?
25 ¶ Ou konnen ki moun ki fè wout bay lapli tonbe, ki moun ki fè chemen pou loraj la,
26 pou lapli tonbe sou dezè a kote moun pa rete,
27 pou wouze tè sèk k'ap fann nan solèy, pou fè zèb pouse nan savann?
28 Eske lapli a gen papa? Ki moun ki fè lawouze?
29 Ki bò moso glas yo soti? Lagrèl ki soti nan syèl la, ki moun ki manman l'?
30 Se yo menm ki fè dlo vin di kou wòch, ki fè tout dlo anwo lanmè a di kou wòch?
31 Ou ka mare zetwal Lapousiyè yo ansanm? Ou ka lage kòd ki kenbe zetwal Oryon yo ansanm?
32 Ou ka mennen zetwal yo soti lè lè yo rive? Ou ka bay Gwo Kabwèt la ak Ti Kabwèt la direksyon pou yo pran?
33 Ou konnen lwa k'ap gouvènen tout bagay nan syèl la? Eske ou ka sèvi ak lwa sa yo pou gouvènen sa k'ap pase sou latè?
34 Eske ou ka bay nwaj yo lòd pou yo voye gwo lapli sou ou?
35 Si ou bay zèklè yo lòd pou yo pati, èske y'ap reponn ou: Wi, men nou?
36 Ki moun ki penmèt krabye konprann lè pou li anonse dlo pral desann fè inondasyon? Ki moun ki fè gwo zwezo sa a konnen lè lapli pral tonbe?
37 Ki moun ki ka konte kantite nwaj ki genyen, san manke yonn? Ki moun ki ka panche yo pou vide dlo lapli,
38 pou pousyè tè a tounen labou, pou boul tè yo kole ansanm?
39 Eske se ou ki jwenn manje pou bay lyon yo manje? Eske ou bay ti lyon yo manje plen vant yo,
40 kote yo kache nan twou yo a, osinon kote yo kouche ap tann nan nich yo a?
41 Ki moun ki pare manje pou kònèy yo, lè grangou fè yo soti nan nich yo, lè pitit yo ap rele nan pye m' pou m' ba yo manje?

Job 38
New International Version
The Lord Speaks
38 Then the Lord spoke to Job(A) out of the storm.(B) He said:
2 “Who is this that obscures my plans(C)
with words without knowledge?(D)
3 Brace yourself like a man;
I will question you,
and you shall answer me.(E)
4 “Where were you when I laid the earth’s foundation?(F)
Tell me, if you understand.(G)
5 Who marked off its dimensions?(H) Surely you know!
Who stretched a measuring line(I) across it?
6 On what were its footings set,(J)
or who laid its cornerstone(K)—
7 while the morning stars(L) sang together(M)
and all the angels[a](N) shouted for joy?(O)
8 “Who shut up the sea behind doors(P)
when it burst forth from the womb,(Q)
9 when I made the clouds its garment
and wrapped it in thick darkness,(R)
10 when I fixed limits for it(S)
and set its doors and bars in place,(T)
11 when I said, ‘This far you may come and no farther;(U)
here is where your proud waves halt’?(V)
12 “Have you ever given orders to the morning,(W)
or shown the dawn its place,(X)
13 that it might take the earth by the edges
and shake the wicked(Y) out of it?(Z)
14 The earth takes shape like clay under a seal;(AA)
its features stand out like those of a garment.
15 The wicked are denied their light,(AB)
and their upraised arm is broken.(AC)
16 “Have you journeyed to the springs of the sea
or walked in the recesses of the deep?(AD)
17 Have the gates of death(AE) been shown to you?
Have you seen the gates of the deepest darkness?(AF)
18 Have you comprehended the vast expanses of the earth?(AG)
Tell me, if you know all this.(AH)
19 “What is the way to the abode of light?
And where does darkness reside?(AI)
20 Can you take them to their places?
Do you know the paths(AJ) to their dwellings?
21 Surely you know, for you were already born!(AK)
You have lived so many years!
22 “Have you entered the storehouses of the snow(AL)
or seen the storehouses(AM) of the hail,(AN)
23 which I reserve for times of trouble,(AO)
for days of war and battle?(AP)
24 What is the way to the place where the lightning is dispersed,(AQ)
or the place where the east winds(AR) are scattered over the earth?(AS)
25 Who cuts a channel for the torrents of rain,
and a path for the thunderstorm,(AT)
26 to water(AU) a land where no one lives,
an uninhabited desert,(AV)
27 to satisfy a desolate wasteland
and make it sprout with grass?(AW)
28 Does the rain have a father?(AX)
Who fathers the drops of dew?
29 From whose womb comes the ice?
Who gives birth to the frost from the heavens(AY)
30 when the waters become hard as stone,
when the surface of the deep is frozen?(AZ)
31 “Can you bind the chains[b] of the Pleiades?
Can you loosen Orion’s belt?(BA)
32 Can you bring forth the constellations(BB) in their seasons[c]
or lead out the Bear[d] with its cubs?(BC)
33 Do you know the laws(BD) of the heavens?(BE)
Can you set up God’s[e] dominion over the earth?
34 “Can you raise your voice to the clouds
and cover yourself with a flood of water?(BF)
35 Do you send the lightning bolts on their way?(BG)
Do they report to you, ‘Here we are’?
36 Who gives the ibis wisdom[f](BH)
or gives the rooster understanding?[g](BI)
37 Who has the wisdom to count the clouds?
Who can tip over the water jars(BJ) of the heavens(BK)
38 when the dust becomes hard(BL)
and the clods of earth stick together?(BM)
