Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
1I made a covenant with my eyes, that I would not so much as think upon a virgin.
1U A hana au i berita me kuu mau maka; A no ke aha la au e nana aku ai i ke kaikamahine?
2For what part should God from above have in me, and what inheritance the Almighty from on high?
2A heaha ka haawina a ke Akua mai luna mai? Heaha hoi ka hooilina a ka Mea mana mai kahi kiekie mai?
3Is not destruction to the wicked, and aversion to them that work iniquity?
3Aole anei he make no ka poe pono ole? A me ka luku no ka poe hana hewa?
4Doth not he consider my ways, and number all my steps?
4Aole anei ia i ike i ko'u mau aoao, A i helu hoi i kuu mau kapuwai a pau?
5If I have walked in vanity, and my foot hath made haste to deceit:
5Ina ua hele au ma ka wahahee, Ina ua lalelale kuu wawae i ka hoopunipuni;
6Let him weigh me in a just balance, and let God know my simplicity.
6E kaupaonaia au ma ke kaupaona pono, I ike ai ke Akua i kuu oiaio.
7If my step hath turned out of the way, and if my heart hath followed my eyes, and if a spot hath cleaved to my hands:
7Ina ua kapae kuu hele ana mai ke ala aku, A ua hele kuu naau mamuli o ko'u mau maka, Ina ua pili ke kina i kuu mau lima;
8Then let me sow and let another eat: and let my offspring be rooted out.
8Alaila e lulu no au, a na hai e ai; A e uhukiia kuu mea ulu.
9If my heart hath been deceived upon a woman, and if I have laid wait at my friend’s door:
9Ina ua hoowalewaleia ko'u naau e ka wahine, Ina ua hoohalua au ma ka puka o ko'u hoalauna;
10Let my wife be the harlot of another, and let other men lie with her.
10Alaila e kaapalaoa ka'u wahine na hai, A e kulou na mea e maluna ona.
11For this is a heinous crime, and a most grievous iniquity.
11No ka mea, he hewa nui no ia, A he lawehala no ia imua o na lunakanawai.
12It is a fire that devoureth even to destruction, and rooteth up all things that spring.
12No ka mea, he ahi ia e hoopau ana, a i ka make, A e uhuki no ia i ka'u mea loaa a pau.
13If I have despised to abide judgment with my manservant, or my maidservant, when they had any controversy against me:
13Ina ua hoowahawaha au i ka hoopono ana i ka'u kauwakane a me ka'u kauwawahine, Ia lakou i hoopaapaa pu ai me au;
14For what shall I do when God shall rise to judge? and when he shall examine, what shall I answer him?
14Heaha ka'u e hana aku ai ke ku mai ke Akua? A ke hookolokolo mai ia, heaha ka'u e olelo aku ai ia ia?
15Did not he that made me in the womb make him also: and did not one and the same form me in the womb?
15Aole anei ka mea nana au i hana iloko o ka opu i hana hoi ia ia? I hana hoi oia ia maua iloko o ka opu hookahi?
16If I have denied to the poor what they desired, and have made the eyes of the widow wait:
16Ina ua hoole au i ka makemake o ka poe ilihune, A ua hoonawaliwali i na maka o ka wahinekanemake;
17If I have eaten my morsel alone, and the fatherless hath not eaten thereof:
17A ina ua ai au i ka'u wahi ai iki, owau wale no, A i ai ole hoi ka mea makua ole ia mea;
18(For from my infancy mercy grew up with me: and it came out with me from my mother’s womb:)
18(No ka mea, mai kuu wa opio mai, ua ulu pu ia me au me he makuakane la, A mai ka opu mai o ko'u makuwahine ua alakai au ia ia:)
19If I have despised him that was perishing for want of clothing, and the poor man that had no covering:
19Ina ua ike au i ka mea e make ana i ke kapa ole, A i ka mea ilihune me ka mea uhi ole;
20If his sides have not blessed me, and if he were not warmed with the fleece of my sheep:
20Ina ua hoomaikai ole kona puhaka ia'u, A ua pumahana ole ia i ka hulu o ka'u poe hipa;
21If I have lifted up my hand against the fatherless, even when I saw myself superior in the gate:
21Ina ua kau aku au i kuu lima maluna o ka mea makua ole, I ka manawa a'u i ike ai i kuu kokua ma ka ipuka:
22Let my shoulder fall from its joint, and let my arm with its bones be broken.
22Alaila e haule iho kuu lima mai ka poohiwi aku, A e haki kuu lima mai ka iwi poohiwi aku.
23For I have always feared God as waves swelling over me, and his weight I was not able to bear.
23No ka mea, he mea weliweli ia'u ka hoopai ana o ke Akua, A no kona kiekie aole loa au i hoomanawanui.
24If I have thought gold my strength, and have said to fine gold: My confidence:
24Ina ua hoonoho au i ke gula i mea e lana'i kuu manao, Ina olelo aku au i ke gula maikai, Oia kuu mea e palele ai;
25If I have rejoiced over my great riches, and because my hand had gotten much.
25Ina ua olioli au no ka nui o kuu waiwai, A no ka mea nui a kuu lima i loaa'i;
26If I beheld the sun when it shined, and the moon going in brightness:
26Ina ua ike au i ka la i kona lilelile ana, A i ka mahina i kona hele aiai ana;
27And my heart in secret hath rejoiced, and I have kissed my hand with my mouth:
27A ua hoowalewale malu ia ko'u naau, I honi ai kuu lima i kuu waha;
28Which is a very great iniquity, and a denial against the most high God.
28He hewa no hoi ia i ka lunakanawai; No ka mea, ua hoole aku au i ke Akua maluna.
29If I have been glad at the downfall of him that hated me, and have rejoiced that evil had found him.
29Ina ua olioli au i ka make ana o ka mea inaina mai ia'u, A ua hauoli au i ka loaa ana o ka hewa ia ia:
30For I have not given my mouth to sin, by wishing a curse to his soul.
30Aole! aole au i ae aku i kuu waha e hana hewa, Ma ke noi aku i ka hooino maluna o kona uhane.
31If the men of my tabernacle have not said: Who will give us of his flesh that we may be filled?
31Ina i olelo ole mai na kanaka o kuu halelewa, Ina e loaa ia makou kona io! aole makou e maona.
32The stranger did not stay without, my door was open to the traveller.
32Aole i moe mawaho ka malihini, Ua wehe ae no au i ko'u puka no ka mea hele.
33If as a man I have hid my sin, and have concealed my iniquity in my bosom.
33Ina ua uhi au i kuu hala e like me ka ke kanaka, I ka huna ana i kuu hewa iloko o kuu poli;
34If I have been afraid at a very great multitude, and the contempt of kinsmen hath terrified me: and I have not rather held my peace, and not gone out of the door.
34Alaila e hoohilahilaia au imua o ka aha nui, A na ka wahawaha o na ohana e hooweliweli ia'u, A noho malie no au, a hele ole iwaho o ka puka.
35Who would grant me a hearer, that the Almighty may hear my desire; and that he himself that judgeth would write a book,
35Ina hoi e hoolohe mai kela ia'u! Eia hoi kuu hoailona, e ekemu mai ka Mea mana ia'u! A e kakau kuu enemi i ka palapala hoopii!
36That I may carry it on my shoulder, and put it about me as a crown?
36He oiaio e kau aku au ia mea maluna o ko'u poohiwi, E nakii au ia me he leialii la maluna o'u.
37At every step of mine I would pronounce it, and offer it as to a prince.
37E hai aku hoi au ia ia i ka heluna o kuu mau kapuwai; Me he alii la, e hookokoke aku au ia ia.
38If my land cry against me, and with it the furrows thereof mourn:
38Ina e uwe kuu aina no'u, A o na auwaha hoi ona e kanikau mai;
39If I have eaten the fruits thereof without money, and have afflicted the soul of the tillers thereof:
39Ina ua ai au i kona hua me ke kala ole, A ua hoomake paha i na haku ona;
40Let thistles grow up to me instead of wheat, and thorns instead of barley.
40E hoouluia ka laau oioi no ka palaoa, A o ka zizania no ka bale. Ua pau ka olelo a Ioba.
