Words Wey I Go Talk for God im Side

Elihu talk for God: suffering na teaching, na ear wey dem dey open, and Job for don enter wide place. Then im voice change to wonder: rain wey dem draw from mist, thunder, lightning wey dem aim reach im target. God big, and we no know am.

Chapter 36.

Elihu still continue, e talk say: "Bear wit me small, make I show you, because words still dey wey I go talk for God im side. I go bring my sabi from far place, and I go give correct-and-holy way to di One wey make me. For true-true, my words no be lie; one person wey im sabi complete dey wit you. Look, God get power, but e no dey look person down; e get power for strong understanding. E no dey keep di wicked people alive, but e dey give di people wey dey suffer di justice wey be dem own. E no dey ever comot im eye from di people wey dey do correct-and-holy way; e dey sidon dem wit kings for dem throne forever, and dem dey lifted up. And if dem tie dem wit chain, and rope of suffering hold dem tight, e go tell dem di things wey dem do and di way dem rebel, say dem carry demsef high wit proud heart. E dey open dem ear to correction, and e dey command say make dem turn commot from sin. If dem listen and serve am, dem go finish dem days wit plenty better tin, and dem years go pass wit sweet mind. But if dem no listen, dem go die by sword, and dem go die witout sabi. People wey no get God for dem heart dey keep vex; dem no dey cry for help wen e tie dem. Dem soul dey die wen dem still young, and dem life dey end among di people wey dey do ashawo for idol worship. E dey save di people wey dey suffer trough dem suffering, and e dey open dem ear trough di hard time. For true, e for don pull you commot from di mouth of trouble go one wide, open place wey nothing dey squeeze you, and your table for don full wit rich food. But now, di judgment wey suppose reach wicked people don full you; judgment and justice don hold you. Mind yousef make vex no draw you enter into mock, and no let big ransom carry you go astray. Abi your cry for help fit keep you from trouble, or all di force of your power? No dey long for di night, wen people dey cut commot from dem place. Take care; no turn go sin, because na dis one you choose pass suffering. Look, God dey lifted up for im power; who be teacher like am?

"Who don tell am di way wey e go take, or who fit talk say, 'You don do wrong'? Remember to praise im work, wey people don sing about. All mankind don look am; human being dey see am from far. Look, God big well well, and we no sabi am; nobody fit count di number of im years. Because e dey draw up di drops of water; dem dey turn to rain from im mist, wey di clouds dey pour down and drop plenty plenty on mankind. Person fit understand how di clouds dey spread, di thunder of im tent? Look, e dey scatter im lightning around am, and e dey cover di deep part of di sea. Because na wit dis tins e dey rule di people; e dey give food plenty plenty. E dey full im hand wit lightning, and e dey command am to strike di mark. Di way e dey crash dey tell about am; even di cattle dey feel say storm dey come."
