Ioba 27
Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
1A OLELO hou mai la o Ioba i kana olelonane, i mai la,
1And Job again took up his parable, and said:
2Ma ke ola o ke Akua, nana i lawe aku kuu pono; A ma ka Mea mana, nana i hooawahia kuu uhane;
2As God liveth, who hath taken away my right; and the Almighty, who hath dealt bitterly with me;
3I ka manawa a pau o kuu hanu iloko o'u, A o ke ola o ke Akua iloko o kuu mau puka ihu;
3All the while my breath is in me, and the spirit of God is in my nostrils,
4Aole e olelo kuu lehelehe i ka hewa, A o kuu elelo aole e hoike aku i ka wahahee.
4Surely my lips shall not speak unrighteousness, neither shall my tongue utter deceit;
5Aole loa wau e hoapono aku ia oukou, a make au; Aole owau e lawe aku i kuu pono mai o'u aku la.
5Far be it from me that I should justify you; till I die I will not put away mine integrity from me.
6Ma kuu pono ke hoopaa nei au, aole au e hookuu aku; Aole e hoino mai ia'u kuu naau i kekahi o kuu mau la.
6My righteousness I hold fast, and will not let it go; my heart shall not reproach me so long as I live.
7E hoohalikeia kuu enemi me ka mea hewa, A o ka mea ku e mai ia'u me he mea pono ole la.
7Let mine enemy be as the wicked, and let him that riseth up against me be as the unrighteous.
8No ka mea, heaha ka manaelana o ka aia, i ka wa e hoopau ai ia ia, I ku wa e kaili aku ai ke Akua i kona uhane?
8For what is the hope of the godless, though he get him gain, when God taketh away his soul?
9E hoolohe mai anei ke Akua i kona auwe ana, I ka manawa e hiki mai ai ka popilikia maluna ona?
9Will God hear his cry, when trouble cometh upon him?
10E hauoli anei ia i ka Mea mana? E kahea mau loa anei ia i ke Akua?
10Will he have his delight in the Almighty, and call upon God at all times?
11E ao aku au ia oukou ma ka lima o ke Akua: Aole au e huna i ka mea me ka Mea mana.
11I will teach you concerning the hand of God; that which is with the Almighty will I not conceal.
12Aia hoi, o oukou a pau, ua hoomaopopo oukou ia; No ke aha la oukou i manao lapuwale ai pela?
12Behold, all ye yourselves have seen it; why then are ye become altogether vain?
13Eia ka uku no ke kanaka hewa imua o ke Akua, O ka hooilina a ka poe hookaumaha e loaa'i, mai ka Mea mana mai.
13This is the portion of a wicked man with God, and the heritage of oppressors, which they receive from the Almighty.
14Ina e hoonuiia kana poe keiki, no ka pahikaua no; A o kana poe mamo, aole e maona i ka berena.
14If his children be multiplied, it is for the sword; and his offspring shall not have bread enough.
15O kona poe e koe ana, e kanuia i ka make: Aole hoi e kanikau kana mau wahinekanemake.
15Those that remain of him shall be buried by pestilence, and his widows shall make no lamentation.
16Ina e hoiliili oia i ke kala e like me ka lepo, A e hoomakaukau i ka lolekomo e like me ka palolo;
16Though he heap up silver as the dust, and prepare raiment as the clay;
17E hoomakaukau no, aka, na ka mea pono e hookomo, A o ke kala, na ka mea hala ole e puunaue.
17He may prepare it, but the just shall put it on, and the innocent shall divide the silver.
18Kukulu no ia i kona hale me he mu la, A e like me ke kamala a ke kiai i hana'i.
18He buildeth his house as a moth, and as a booth which the keeper maketh.
19Moe iho ilalo ka mea waiwai, aole e kanuia; Wehe ae ia i kona maka, aole iho la ia.
19He lieth down rich, but there shall be not to gather; he openeth his eyes, and his wealth is not.
20Kau mai la na weliweli ia ia, e like me na wai, I ka po, lawe aku ka puahiohio ia ia.
20Terrors overtake him like waters; a tempest stealeth him away in the night.
21Na ka makani hikina ia e lawe aku, a hele aku ia, A o ka ino e lawe ia ia mai kona wahi aku.
21The east wind carrieth him away, and he departeth; and it sweepeth him out of his place.
22E hoolei aku [ke Akua] ia ia, aole ia e minamina: I ka holo ana, e holo no ia mai kona lima aku.
22Yea, it hurleth at him, and spareth not; he would fain flee from its power.
23E pai lakou i ko lakou lima ia ia, A e kipaku ia ia mai kona wahi aku.
23Men shall clap their hands at him, and shall hiss him out of his place.
