1Man born of a woman, living for a short time, is filled with many miseries.
1O KE kanaka i hanauia e ka wahine. He hapa kona mau la, a ua piha i ka popilikia.
2Who cometh forth like a flower, and is destroyed, and fleeth as a shadow, and never continueth in the same state.
2Puka mai no ia me he pua la, a ua okiia aku; A holo aku no ia me he aka la, aole ia e mau.
3And dost thou think it meet to open thy eyes upon such an one, and to bring him into judgment with thee?
3A ke kau anei oe i kou mau maka maluna o ka mea like me ia, A e lawe mai ia'u i ka hookolokoloia ana e oe?
4Who can make him clean that is conceived of unclean seed? is it not thou who only art?
4Owai ka mea e unuhi ae i ka mea maemae mai o ka mea haumia? aole kekahi.
5The days of man are short, and the number of his months is with thee: thou hast appointed his bounds which cannot be passed.
5No ka mea, ua heluia kona mau la, A ia oe no ka huina o kona mau malama, Ua hoonoho oe i kona mau mokuna, i hiki ole ai ia ke ae aku;
6Depart a little from him, that he may rest, until his wished for day come, as that of the hireling.
6E nana ae oe mai ona aku la, i hoomaha iho ai ia, A hauoli ia i kona ia, me he mea hoolimalima la.
7A tree hath hope: if it be cut, it groweth green again, and the boughs thereof sprout.
7No ka mea, a i kuaia ka laau, He manao no nona, e ulu hou auanei, Aole hoi e pau na lala hou.
8If its root be old in the earth, and its stock be dead in the dust:
8Ina ua elemakule kona aa ma ka honua, A ua make hoi kona kumu ma ka lepo;
9At the scent of water, it shall spring, and bring forth leaves, as when it was first planted.
9Aka, no ka honi ana i ka wai e kupu ae ia, A e hookupu aku i na lala, me he laau kanu la,
10But man when he shall be dead, and stripped and consumed, I pray you where is he?
10Aka, o ke kanaka, e make no ia, a e nalowale aku; Oia, e make ana no ke kanaka, auhea la oia?
11As if the waters should depart out of the sea, and an emptied river should be dried up:
11E like me ka maloo ana o na wai, mai ke kai aku, A me ka emi ana o ka muliwai, a maloo iho;
12So man when he is fallen asleep shall not rise again; till the heavens be broken, he shall not awake, nor rise up out of his sleep.
12Pela e moe iho ai ke kanaka, aole ku hou ae; Aole lakou e ala hou mai, a pau aku na lani, Aole hoi e hooku hou ia, mai ko lakou hiamoe ana.
13Who will grant me this, that thou mayst protect me in hell, and hide me till thy wrath pass, and appoint me a. time when thou wilt remember me?
13E pono e waiho iho oe ia'u iloko o ka luakupapau, A e huna oe ia'u, a hala aku kou huhu, A e hoakaka mai no'u i ka manawa pono, a e hoomanao mai ia'u!
14Shall man that is dead, thinkest thou, live again? all the days in which I am now in warfare, I expect until my change come.
14Ina e make ke kanaka, e ola hou anei oia? O na la a pau o ko'u kaua ana ka'u e kali ai, A hiki mai ko'u manawa.
15Thou shalt call me, and I will answer thee: to the work of thy hands thou shalt reach out thy right hand.
15E kahea mai oe ia'u, a e hoolohe aku no au ia oe: A e aloha mai no oe i ka hana a kou mau lima.
16Thou indeed hast numbered my steps, but spare my sins.
16No ka mea, ano ke helu nei oe i kuu mau kapuwai; Aole anei oe e kiai mai nei i ko'u hewa?
17Thou hast sealed up my offences as it were in a bag, but hast cured my iniquity.
17Ua hoopaaia kuu hewa iloko o ka aa, Ua imi hala oe i kuu hewa.
18A mountain falling cometh to nought, and a rock is removed out of its place.
18A he oiaio, o ka mauna e hiolo ana, moe mau no ia, A ua hooneeia ka pohaku mai kona wahi aku.
19Waters wear away the stones, and with inundation the ground by little and little is washed away: so in like manner thou shalt destroy man.
19Ke anai nei na wai i na pohaku; O kona wai nui, ua hoopau aku ia i ka lepo o ka aina; Pela oe e hoomake nei i ka manaolana o ke kanaka.
20Thou hast strengthened him for a little while, that he may pass away for ever: thou shalt change his face, and shalt send him away.
20Ke lanakila mau nei oe maluna ona, a hele aku no ia: Ke boopahaohao nei oe i kona maka, a hoouna aku ia ia.
21Whether his children come to honour or dishonour, he shall not understand.
21Ua hoohanohanoia kana keiki, aole oia i ike: A ua hoohaahaaia lakou, aole ia i noonoo no lakou.
22But yet his flesh, while he shall live, shall have pain, and his soul shall mourn over him.
22Aka, e hui kona io maluna ona, A e uwe kona naau iloko ona.
