¹Zvino rimwe zuvazve vanakomana vaMwari vakati vachindomira pamberi paJehovha, Satani akasvikawo pakati pavo, akamira pamberi paJehovha.

¹Quicuulac xkßehil nak queßxchßutub cuißchic rib chiru li Dios eb li ángel. Ut saß xyânkeb aßan quicuulac cuißchic laj tza.

²Jehovha akati kuna Satani, Wabvepiko? Satani akapindura Jehovha, akati, Ndabva pakupota-pota nenyika, napakufamba-famba pairi.

²Ut li Kâcuaß Dios quixye re laj tza: —¿Bar xatchal chak? chan re. Ut laj tza quixye re li Dios: —Yôquin chak chixsutinquil li ruchichßochß. Yôquin chixbeninquil cuib yalak bar, chan.

³Jehovha akati kuna Satani, Wacherekedza muranda wangu Jobho here? nekuti hakuna munhu akafanana naye panyika, munhu akakwana, akarurama, anotya Mwari, achinzvenga zvakaipa; nazvino anorambira pakururama kwake, kunyange iwe wakandikurudzira kuti ndimuparadze asine mhaka.

³Ut li Kâcuaß Dios quixye re laj tza: —¿Ma incßaß nacacuil laj Job laj cßanjel chicuu? Mâ ani chic junak cuînk joß aßan saß ruchichßochß. Aßan tzßakal re ru lix yußam ut tîc xchßôl.

Usta lâat xaye cue nak tincanab chixcßulbal li raylal re chi mâcßaß rajbal, abanan laj Job toj cuan saß tîquilal ut toj cau xchßôl cuiqßuin, chan li Dios.

⁴Satani akapindura Jehovha, akati, Ganda rinotsihwa neganda, zvose zvaanazvo munhu angazviisira upenyu hwake.

⁴Abanan laj tza quixye re li Dios: —Cui mâcßaß naxcßul lix tibel li cuînk, mâcßaß naxye, usta naxqßue chi tzßekecß li cßaßru cuan re xban xcolbal rix lix yußam.

⁵Asi tambanudzai ruoko rwenyu zvino, murove mafupa ake nenyama yake, ipapo achakushorai pachena.

⁵Qßue junak yajel saß lix tibel ut aran tâcuil ma incßaß na tatxtzßektâna, chan.

⁶Jehovha akati kuna Satani, Tarira, iye ari paruoko rwako; asi koga urege upenyu hwake.

⁶Joßcan nak li Kâcuaß Dios quixye re laj tza: —Us. Mâcßaß naxye. Bânu li cßaßru tâcuaj re, abanan incßaß tâcamsi, chan li Kâcuaß.

⁷Naizvozvo Satani akabva pamberi paJehovha, akarova Jobho namaronda akaipa, kubva patsoka dzake kusvikira pamusoro wake.

⁷Ut laj tza qui-el riqßuin li Kâcuaß. Ut quixtakla jun li yajel yibru saß xbên laj Job ut quixoxoß chixjunil li rix.

⁸Jobho akatora chaenga akazvikwenya nacho; akagara pasi pakati pamadota.

⁸Ut laj Job cô chixchunubanquil rib saß li cha. Quixchap jun pedâs xcßaj ucßal ut riqßuin aßan quixjoch li rix.

⁹Ipapo mukadzi wake akati kwaari, Ucharambira nazvino pakururama kwako here? Shora Mwari, ufe hako.

⁹Ut li rixakil quixye re: —¿Ma toj nacacuaj xbânunquil li us? ¿Cßaßut nak incßaß tâtzßektâna li Dios ut tatcâmk? chan re.

¹⁰Asi iye akati kwaari, Iwe unotaura sezvinotaura mumwe wavakadzi matununu. Tingagamuchira zvakanakacheteparuoko rwaMwari, tikasagamuchira zvakaipawo here? Pazvinhu izvi zvose Jobho haana kutadza nomuromo wake.

¹⁰Laj Job quixye re li rixakil: —¿Cßaßut nak nacat-âtinac chi joßcan? Lâat tôntil naßleb nacaye. Cui nakacßul li us li naxqßue ke li Dios, ¿cßaßut nak incßaß takacßul li raylal li nachal saß kabên? chan re. Ut riqßuin chixjunil li raylal li quixcßul mâ jun âtin quixye re xtzßektânanquil li Dios.
