Ioba 19
Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
Berean Standard Bible
1A LAILA olelo mai o Ioba, i mai la,
1Then Job answered:
2Pehea la ka loihi e hoeha mai ai oukou i kuu uhane, A e haihai mai ia'u ma na olelo?
2“How long will you torment me and crush me with your words?
3Eia ka umi o ka oukou olelo ino mai ia'u; Aole oukou i hilahila, ke hookulikuli oukou ia'u;
3Ten times now you have reproached me; you shamelessly mistreat me.
4Ina he oiaio, he lalau ko'u, Ke waiho nei me au kuu lalau ana.
4Even if I have truly gone astray, my error concerns me alone.
5Ina he oiaio, e hookiekie oukou e ku e ia'u, A e ao mai ia'u i kuu hoinoia:
5If indeed you would exalt yourselves above me and use my disgrace against me,
6E ike oukou ano, ua hookahuli mai ke Akua ia'u, A ua hoopuni mai ia'u i kana upena.
6then understand that it is God who has wronged me and drawn His net around me.
7Aia hoi, ke kahea aku nei au no ka hana ino ia, aole au i hooloheia mai; Ke hea nui aku nei an, aohe hooponopono.
7Though I cry out, ‘Violence!’ I get no response; though I call for help, there is no justice.
8Ua alalai mai ia i ko'u ala, aole au e hiki ke hele aku, A ua kau no ia i ka pouli ma kuu mau alanui.
8He has blocked my way so I cannot pass; He has veiled my paths with darkness.
9Ua hao mai ia ia'u i kuu nani, Ua lawe hoi i ka leialii mai kuu poo aku.
9He has stripped me of my honor and removed the crown from my head.
10Ua luku mai ia ia'u a puni, a ua pau hoi au; A ua uhuki ae ia i kuu manaolana, me he laau la,
10He tears me down on every side until I am gone; He uproots my hope like a tree.
11Ua hoaa no ia i kona inaina ia'u, A ua manao no ia'u me kona poe enemi.
11His anger burns against me, and He counts me among His enemies.
12Hoakoakoaia kona poe koa, A hoouka ae lakou i ko lakou kuamoo ia'u, A hoomoana lakou a puni ko'u halelewa.
12His troops advance together; they construct a ramp against me and encamp around my tent.
13Ua hoomamao aku ia i ko'u mau hoahanau mai o'u aku la, A o ko'u mau hoalauna, ua hoomaka e lakou ia'u.
13He has removed my brothers from me; my acquaintances have abandoned me.
14Ua haalele kuu mau hoa pili ia'u, A o kuu poe makamaka, ua hoopoina lakou ia'u.
14My kinsmen have failed me, and my friends have forgotten me.
15O ka poe e noho ana ma kuu hale, a me na kauwawahine a'u, manao mai lakou ia'u he malihini: He kanaka e no wau i ko lakou mau maka.
15My guests and maidservants count me as a stranger; I am a foreigner in their sight.
16Kahea aku au i ka'u kauwa, aole ia e o mai; Nonoi aku au ia ia me kuu waha.
16I call for my servant, but he does not answer, though I implore him with my own mouth.
17Ua ano e kuu hanu i ka'u wahine, A me kuu uwe ana i na keiki o kuu kino.
17My breath is repulsive to my wife, and I am loathsome to my own family.
18O na keiki liilii, hoowahawaha lakou ia'u; Ku no wau iluna, a olelo ku e mai lakou ia'u.
18Even little boys scorn me; when I appear, they deride me.
19O na hoa kuka o'u a pau, ua hoopailua lakou ia'u; A o ka poe a'u i aloha i, ua huli lakou e ku e ia'u.
19All my best friends despise me, and those I love have turned against me.
20Ke pili nei kuu iwi i ko'u ili a me ko'u io, A ua pakele au me ka ili o ko'u mau niho.
20My skin and flesh cling to my bones; I have escaped by the skin of my teeth.
21E aloha mai ia'u, e aloha mai ia'u, e oukou ko'u poe makamaka; No ka mea, ua hahau mai ka lima o ke Akua ia'u!
21Have pity on me, my friends, have pity, for the hand of God has struck me.
22No ko aha la oukou e hahai mai ai ia'u, me he Akua la, Aole hoi oukou i maona i kuu io?
22Why do you persecute me as God does? Will you never get enough of my flesh?
23Ina paha ano e kakauia ka'u mau olelo! Ina e palapalaia lakou iloko o ka buke!
23I wish that my words were recorded and inscribed in a book,
24Me ka peni hao a me ke kepau, E kahakaha mau ia lakou iloko o ka pohaku!
24by an iron stylus on lead, or chiseled in stone forever.
25No ka mea, ua ike au e ola ana kuu Mea hoola, A i ka wa mahope e ku no ia maluna o ka honua.
25But I know that my Redeemer lives, and in the end He will stand upon the earth.
26A mahope o kuu ili, e hoopau na ilo i keia kino, Aka, ma kuu io e ike aku au i ke Akua.
26Even after my skin has been destroyed, yet in my flesh I will see God.
27Oia ka'u e ike aku no'u iho, A e ike ko'u mau maka, aole ko hai; Ua kaniuhu kuu naau iloko o'u.
27I will see Him for myself; my eyes will behold Him, and not as a stranger. How my heart yearns within me!
28Aka, e olelo oukou, No ke aha kakou e hoomaau ia ia, No ka mea, ua loaa ko kumu o ka mea iloko o'u?
28If you say, ‘Let us persecute him, since the root of the matter lies with him,’
29E makau oukou i ka pahikaua; No ka mea, o ka huhu, oia ka hewa no ka pahikaua, I ike oukou, he hoopai ana no.
29then you should fear the sword yourselves, because wrath brings punishment by the sword, so that you may know there is a judgment.”
