Tongan Bible, Revised West Version
1I will not stir him up, like one that is cruel: for who can resist my countenance?
1“ʻOku ke faʻa fusi hake ʻae levaiatani ʻaki ʻae mātaʻu? Pe ko hono ʻelelo ʻaki ʻae afo ʻoku ke tukutuku hifo?
2Who hath given me before that I should repay him? All things that are under heaven are mine.
2ʻOku ke faʻa ʻai ʻae mātaʻu ki hono ihu? Pe vili ke ʻasi hono kouʻahe ʻaki ʻae talaʻi ʻakau?
3I will not spare him, nor his mighty words, and framed to make supplication.
3Te ne fai ʻene ngaahi hū tāumaʻu kiate koe? Te ne lea ʻaki ʻae ngaahi lea malu kiate koe?
4Who can discover the face of his garment? or who can go into the midst of his mouth?
4Te ne fai ʻae fuakava mo koe? Te ke maʻu ia ko hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ʻo taʻengata?
5Who can open the doors of his face? his teeth are terrible round about.
5Te ke fakavā mo ia ʻo hangē ko e manupuna? Pe te ke noʻotaki ia maʻa hoʻo kau taʻahine?
6His body is like molten shields, shut close up with scales pressing upon one another.
6ʻE fai kātoanga ʻaki ia ʻe ho kaumeʻa? Te nau vahevahe ia ki he kakai fakatau?
7One is joined to another, and not so much as any air can come between them:
7ʻOku ke faʻa fakapito hono kili ʻi he tao ukamea talatala? Pe ko hono ʻulu ʻi he tao hoka ika?
8They stick one to another and they hold one another fast, and shall not be separated.
8Hilifaki ho nima kiate ia, manatu ki he tau, pea ʻoua naʻa toe fai hā meʻa.
9His sneezing is like the shining of fire, and his eyes like the eyelids of the morning.
9Vakai, ʻoku taʻeʻaonga ke ʻamanaki kiate ia: ʻikai ʻe tō ki lalo ha tokotaha ʻi he mamata pe kiate ia?
10Out of his mouth go forth lamps, like torches of lighted fire.
10ʻOku ʻikai ha tokotaha ʻoku loto lahi ʻe fie ueʻi ia ke tuʻu hake: pea ka kuo pehē, ko hai koā ʻe faʻa tuʻu ʻi hoku ʻao?
11Out of his nostrils goeth smoke, like that of a pot heated and boiling.
11Ko hai kuo ne tomuʻa fai kiate au koeʻuhi ke u totongi ia? Ko e meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku ʻi lalo langi ʻoku ʻaʻaku ia.
12His breath kindleth coals, and a flame cometh forth out of his mouth.
12“ʻE ʻikai te u fakapuli hono ngaahi konga, pe ko hono mālohi, pe ko hono matamatalelei.
13In his neck strength shall dwell, and want goeth before his face.
13Ko hai te ne faʻa ʻilo ʻae mata ʻo hono kofu? Pe ko hai ʻe faʻa haʻu kiate ia mo e palaiteli lou ua?
14The members of his flesh cleave one to another: he shall send lightnings against him, and they shall not be carried to another place.
14Ko hai te ne faʻa toʻo ʻae matapā ʻo hono mata? ʻOku fakailifia hono ngaahi nifo ʻoku takatakai.
15His heart shall be as hard as a stone, and as firm as a smith’s anvil.
15ʻOku viki ia ʻi hono ngaahi ʻuno, ʻaia ʻoku tāpuni fakataha ʻo hangē ko e meʻa pulusi maʻu.
16When he shall raise him up, the angels shall fear, and being affrighted shall purify themselves.
16ʻOku fengūtaki pehē ʻae taha ki he taha, ʻaia ʻoku ʻikai faʻa hū ai ʻae matangi ʻi hona vahaʻa.
17When a sword shall lay at him, it shall not be able to hold, nor a spear, nor a breastplate.
17ʻOku nau fehokotaki, ʻo fepikitaki fakataha, pea ʻe ʻikai faʻa vaheʻi.
18For he shall esteem iron as straw, and brass as rotten wood.
18ʻI heʻene mafatua ʻoku ulo ai ʻae maama, pea ʻoku tatau hono mata mo e laumata ʻoe pongipongi.
19The archer shall not put him to flight, the stones of the sling are to him like stubble.
19ʻOku ʻalu atu mei hono ngutu ʻae ngaahi maama ulo, ʻoku puna mei ai kituʻa ʻae ngaahi kalofiama.
20As stubble will he esteem the hammer, and he will laugh him to scorn who shaketh the spear.
20ʻOku ʻalu atu ʻi hono avaʻi ihu ʻae ʻohuafi, ʻo hangē ko e kulo vai kuo lili, pe ko e fuʻu kulo.
21The beams of the sun shall be under him, and he shall strew gold under him like mire.
21ʻOku tutu ʻe heʻene mānava ʻae malala, pea ʻoku ulo mai ʻae afi mei hono ngutu.
22He shall make the deep sea to boil like a pot, and shall make it as when ointments boil.
22ʻOku nofo ʻae mālohi ʻi hono kia, pea ʻoku liliu ʻae mamahi ko e fiefia ʻi hono ʻao.
23A path shall shine after him, he shall esteem the deep as growing old.
23Ko hono ngaahi ʻioʻi kakano ʻoku piki fakataha: ʻoku mālohi ia ʻi ai; ʻoku ʻikai faʻa ueʻi.
24There is no power upon earth that can be compared with him who was made to fear no one.
24ʻOku mālohi hono loto ʻo hangē ko e maka; ʻio, ʻoku fefeka ʻo hangē ko e konga ʻoe maka tokalalo ʻoe meʻa momosi.
25He beholdeth every high thing, he is king over all the children of pride.
25ʻOka fokotuʻu hake ia ki ʻolunga, ʻoku manavahē ʻae kau mālohi: ko e meʻa ʻi he faʻa maumau ʻoku nau fakamaʻa ʻakinautolu.
