1When Job answered, and said:
1OLELO mai ia o Ioba, i mai la,
2Are you then men alone, and shall wisdom die with you?
2He oiaio, o oukou ka poe kanaka, A e make pu ka noiau me oukou.
3I also have a heart as well as you: for who is ignorant of these things, which you know?
3Aka, he naauao ko'u e like me oukou; Aole au i emi malalo iho o oukou: A owai la ka mea ike ole i na mea like me keia mau mea?
4He that is mocked by his friends as I, shall call upon God and he will hear him: for the simplicity of the just man is laughed to scorn.
4Ua lilo au i mea heneheneia e kona hoalauna, E kahea ana i ke Akua, a hoolohe mai oia ia ia; O ka mea pono a me ka hala ole, ua akaakaia oia.
5The lamp despised in the thoughts of the rich, is ready for the time appointed.
5Me ka ipukukui i hoowahawahaia i ka manao o ka mea e noho nanea ana, Pela ka mea ua kokoke pahee kona mau wawae.
6The tabernacles of robbers abound, and they provoke God boldly; whereas it is he that hath given all into their hands:
6Ua pomaikai na halelewa o ka poe luku wale, A ua noho maluhia ka poe hoonaukiuki aku i ke Akua; Iloko o ko lakou lima na ke Akua i haawi mai.
7But ask now the beasts, and they shall teach thee: and the birds of the air, and they shall tell thee.
7Aka, ano e ninau i na holoholona, a e ao mai lakou ia oe; A me na manu o ka lewa, a e hoike mai lakou ia oe;
8Speak to the earth, and it shall answer thee: and the fishes of the sea shall tell.
8E olelo aku paha i ka honua, a e ao mai no ia ia oe: A o na ia o ke kai e hoakaka mai no lakou ia oe,
9Who is ignorant that the hand of the Lord hath made all these things?
9Owai la ka mea ike ole i keia mau mea a pau, Na ka lima o Iehova i hana keia?
10In whose hand is the soul of every living thing, and the spirit of all flesh of man.
10Iloko o kona lima ka uhane o na mea ola a pau, A me ka hanu o na kanaka a pau.
11Doth not the ear discern words, and the palate of him that eateth, the taste?
11Aole anei e hoao ke pepeiao i na olelo? A e hoao ka waha i ka ai nona iho?
12In the ancient is wisdom, and in length of days prudence.
12Me ka poe kahiko ka maiau, A me ke ola loihi ka naauao.
13With him is wisdom and strength, he hath counsel and understanding.
13Ia ia ka naauao, a me ka ikaika; Nona ka oleloao, a me ke akamai.
14If he pull down, there is no man that can build up: if he shut up a. man, there is none that can open.
14Aia hoi, ke wawahi nei oia, aole e kukulu hou ia; Ke hahao aku ia i ke kanaka iloko, aole e hookuuia'ku.
15If he withhold the waters, all things shall be dried up: and if he send them out, they shall overturn the earth.
15Aia hoi, ke hoopaa nei oia i na wai, a ua maloo lakou: A hookuu aku oia ia lakou, a luku lakou i ko ka honua.
16With him is strength and wisdom: he knoweth both the deceiver, and him that is deceived.
16Me ia ka ikaika, a me ka naauao: Nona ka mea i hoopuniia, a me ka mea hoopuni.
17He bringeth counsellors to a foolish end, and judges to insensibility.
17Ua lawe pio aku ia i na kakaolelo, A hoolilo i na lunakanawai i poe hawawa.
18He looseth the belt of kings, and girdeth their loins with a cord.
18Kala aku no ia i ka mea paa o na'lii, A kaei aku ia i ko lakou puhaka i ke kaei.
19He leadeth away priests without glory, and overthroweth nobles.
19Alakai pio aku ia i na kahuna, A hookahuli i ka poe ikaika.
20He changeth the speech of the true speakers, and taketh away the doctrine of the aged.
20Hoopau aku ia i ka olelo a ka poe oiaio, A lawe aku ia i ka naauao, mai ka poe kahiko aku.
21He poureth contempt upon princes, and relieveth them that were oppressed.
21Ninini iho ia i ka hoino maluna o na'lii, A kala ae no ia i ke kaei o ka poe ikaika.
22He discovereth deep things out of darkness, and bringeth up to light the shadow of death.
22Hoike mai ia i na mea hohonu mailoko mai o ka pouli, A hoopuka no ia i ka malamalama mai ka malu make mai.
23He multiplieth nations, and destroyeth them, and restoreth them again after they were overthrown.
23Hoomahuahua no ia i na lahuikanaka, a luku aku no hoi ia lakou: Hoonui aku no ia i na lahuikanaka, a hoemi hou iho ia lakou.
24He changeth the heart of the princes of the people of the earth, and deceiveth them that they walk in vain where there is no way.
24Lawe aku ia i ka naauao o na luna o kanaka ma ka honua; A hooauwana ia lakou ma ka waonahele, aohe alauui.
25They shall grope as in the dark, and not in the light, and he shall make them stagger like men that are drunk.
25Haha lakou iloko o ka pouli aohe malamalama, A e hoohikaka aku oia ia lakou, me he mea ona la.
