Tongan Bible, Revised West Version
1So these three men ceased to answer Job, because he seemed just to himself.
1Naʻe tuku ai ʻe he kau tangata ʻe toko tolu ni ʻenau lea atu kia Siope, koeʻuhi naʻe māʻoniʻoni ia ʻi hono mata ʻoʻona.
2And Eliu the son of Barachel the Buzite, of the kindred of Ram, was angry and was moved to indignation: now he was angry against Job, because he said he was just before God.
2Pea naʻe tupu ʻae ʻita ʻa Elihu ko e foha ʻo Palakela ko e tangata Pusa, ʻi he kāinga ʻo Lame: naʻe tupu ʻene ʻita kia Siope, koeʻuhi naʻa ne fakatonuhiaʻi ia ʻe ia kae ʻikai ko e ʻOtua.
3And he was angry with his friends because they had not found a reasonable answer, but only had condemned Job.
3Naʻe ʻita foki ia ki hono kāinga ʻe toko tolu, koeʻuhi naʻe ʻikai te nau faʻa talia ʻa Siope, ka kuo nau talatalaakiʻi ia.
4So Eliu waited while Job was speaking, because they were his elders that were speaking.
4Ka naʻe tatali ʻa Elihu kaeʻoua ke ʻosi ʻae lea ʻa Siope, koeʻuhi naʻa nau motuʻa ʻiate ia.
5But when he saw that the three were not able to answer, he was exceedingly angry.
5Pea ʻi he vakai ʻa Elihu kuo ʻikai ha tali ʻi he ngutu ʻoe kau tangata ʻe toko tolu ni, naʻe tupu ʻene ʻita.
6Then Eliu the son of Barachel the Buzite answered and said: I am younger in days, and you are more ancient; therefore hanging down my head, I was afraid to shew you my opinion.
6Pea naʻe lea ʻa Elihu ko e foha ʻo Palakela ko e tangata Pusa, ʻo ne pehē, “ʻOku ou siʻi au, kae motuʻa ʻakimoutolu; ko ia ne u manavahē ai, ʻo taʻefiefakahā ʻa hoku loto.
7For I hoped that greater age would speak, and that a multitude of years would teach wisdom.
7Ne u pehē, ‘ʻE lea ʻae ngaahi ʻaho, pea ʻe akonekina ke poto ʻe he ngaahi taʻu lahi.’
8But, as I see, there is a spirit in men, and the inspiration of the Almighty giveth understanding.
8Ka ʻoku ai ʻae laumālie ʻi he tangata, pea ʻoku foaki kiate ia ʻae ʻilo lahi ʻe he fakamānava ʻae Māfimafi.
9They that are aged are not the wise men, neither do the ancients understand judgment.
9ʻOku ʻikai poto ʻae houʻeiki kotoa pē, pea ʻoku ʻikai ʻilo ʻe he mātuʻa ʻae fakamaau.
10Therefore I will speak: Hearken to me, I also will shew you my wisdom.
10Ko ia ne u pehē ai, ‘Fanongo mai kiate au; te u fakahā foki hoku loto.’
11For I have waited for your words, I have given ear to your wisdom, as long as you were disputing in words.
11“Vakai, ne u tatali ki hoʻomou ngaahi lea; naʻaku fakafanongo ki hoʻomou ngaahi fakamatala, ʻi he lolotonga homou hakule ki haʻamou lea.
12And as long as I thought you said some thing, I considered: but, as I see, there is none of you that can convince Job, and answer his words.
12ʻIo, ne u tokangaʻi ʻakimoutolu, pea vakai, kuo ʻikai ha taha ʻiate kimoutolu kuo ne lavaʻi ʻa Siope, pe tali ʻene ngaahi lea:
13Lest you should say: We have found wisdom, God hath cast him down, not man.
13Telia naʻa mou pehē, ‘Kuo mau ʻiloʻi ʻae poto: ʻoku lī hifo ia ʻe he ʻOtua, kae ʻikai ko e tangata.’
14He hath spoken nothing to me, and I will not answer him according to your words.
14Pea ko eni, naʻe ʻikai te ne lea fakatotonu mai kiate au: pea ʻe ʻikai te u tali ʻaki ia ʻa hoʻomou ngaahi lea.
15They were afraid, and answered no more, and they left off speaking.
15“Naʻe ofo ʻakinautolu, ʻo ʻikai te nau toe lea: pea fakalongo pe.
16Therefore because I have waited, and they have not spoken: they stood, and answered no more:
16Pea kuo u tatali, (he naʻe ʻikai te nau lea, kae tutuʻu pe, ʻo ʻikai toe lea:)
17I also will answer my part, and will shew my knowledge.
17Pea ne u pehē, ‘Te u tali foki ʻeau ʻi hoku lakanga, te u fakahā foki hoku loto.’
18For I am full of matter to speak of, and the spirit of my bowels straiteneth me.
18He ʻoku ou pito ʻi he ngaahi lea, ʻoku fakangaueʻi au ʻe hoku laumālie.
19Behold, my belly is as new wine which wanteth vent, which bursteth the new vessels.
19Vakai, ʻoku tatau hoku loto mo e uaine taʻehanoava; ʻo hangē ko e ngaahi hina ʻoe uaine foʻou, ʻoku toe siʻi pea mahaehae.
20I will speak and take breath a little: I will open my lips, and will answer.
20Te u lea kau fiemālie: te u faʻai hoku loungutu ʻo tali.
21I will not accept the person of man, and I will not level God with man.
21ʻOfa ke ʻoua naʻaku filifilimānako ki ha taha, pea ʻoua naʻaku ʻai ʻae hingoa fakalapu ki ha tangata.
22For I know not how long I shall continue, and whether after a while my Maker may take me away.
22He ʻoku ʻikai te u ʻilo ke ʻai ʻae hingoa lapu; telia naʻa ʻave fakavave ai au ʻe hoku Tupuʻanga.
