Ioba 30
Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
1A NO hoi, ua henehene mai ia'u ka poe opiopio ia'u, Ka poe nona na makuakane a'u i hoowahawaha ai, Aole e hoonoho pu me na ilio o ka'u poe hipi.
1But now the younger in time scorn me, whose fathers I would not have set with the dogs of my flock:
2Oia hoi, o ka ikaika o ko lakou lima heaha ia ia'u, Ka mea i pau ka ikaika?
2The strength of whose hands was to me as nothing, and they were thought unworthy of life itself.
3No ka ilihune a no ka pololi ua wiwi lakou; Holo lakou i ka waonahele, I ka po he mehameha a neoneo.
3Barren with want and hunger, who gnawed in the wilderness, disfigured with calamity and misery.
4Uhuki lakou i ka maluha ma ka nahelehele, A me ke aa o ka laau iunipera i ai na lakou.
4And they ate grass, and barks of trees, and the root of junipers was their food.
5Maiwaena mai o kanaka ua hookukeia'ku lakou; Kahea nui aku mahope o lakou e like me lakou i ka aihue;
5Who snatched up these things out of the valleys, and when they had found any of them, they ran to them with a cry.
6Maloko o na awawa weliweli e noho ai lakou, Maloko o na lua o ka honua a me na pohaku.
6They dwelt in the desert places of torrents, and in caves of earth, or upon the gravel.
7Mawaena o ka nahelehele, me he hoki la lakou i uwe ai, Malalo o ka laau kuku lakou i hoakoakoa ai.
7They pleased themselves among these kind of things, and counted it delightful to be under the briers.
8He poe keiki a kanaka lapuwale, He poe keiki a kanaka inoa ole; Ua hookukeia lakou mai ka aina aku.
8The children of foolish and base men, and not appearing at all upon the earth.
9Ano hoi, ua lilo au i mea e mele ai lakou; A ua lilo hoi au no lakou i mea e olelo nane ai.
9Now I am turned into their song, and am become their byword.
10Ua hoopailua lakou ia'u, a holo mamao lakou mai o'u aku la, Aole lakou i uumi i ke kuha mai i kuu maka.
10They abhor me, and flee far from me, and are not afraid to spit in my face.
11No ka mea, ua kuu aku ia i kona kaulawaha, a ua hookaumaha mai ia'u; Ua kuu aku hoi lakou i ke kaulawaha imua o'u.
11For he hath opened his quiver, and hath afflicted me, and hath put a bridle into my mouth.
12Ma ka akau ku mai ka poe opio, a hoonee aku i kuu wawae, Hoouka ae lakou i na alanui no kuu make.
12At the right hand of my rising, my calamities forthwith arose: they have overthrown my feet, and have overwhelmed me with their paths as with waves.
13Ua hana ino lakou i kuu ala, Ua kokua lakou i kuu hina ana; Aohe o lakou kokua.
13They have destroyed my ways, they have lain in wait against me, and they have prevailed, and there was none to help.
14Hele mai lakou me he poha nui mai la: Ma kahi nahae, hookaa mai la lakou maluna o'u.
14They have rushed in upon me, as when a wall is broken, and a gate opened, and have rolled themselves down to my miseries.
15Ua hiki mai na mea hooweliweli maluna o'u: Hoomaau lakou i kuu lokomaikai e like me ka makani; A me he ao la, ke hele aku nei kuu pomaikai.
15I am brought to nothing: as a wind thou hast taken away my desire: and my prosperity hath passed away like a cloud.
16Ano hoi ua nininiia kuu uhane iloko o'u, Ua lalau mai na la kaumaha ia'u.
16And now my soul fadeth within myself, and the days of affliction possess me.
17I ka po ua oia kuu mau iwi iloko o'u; Aole i maha kuu mau eha aai.
17In the night my bone is pierced with sorrows: and they that feed upon me, do not sleep.
18No ka ikaika loa o kuu mai, ua ano e kuu aahu; Ua puliki mai ia'u e like me ka a-i o kuu kapakomo.
18With the multitude of them my garment is consumed, and they have girded me about, as with the collar of my coat.
19Ua hoolei mai oia ia'u iloko o ka nenelu, A ua like au me ka lepo a me ka lehu.
19I am compared to dirt, and am likened to embers and ashes.
20Ua uwe aku au ia oe, aole oe i hoolohe mai ia'u; A ku au iluna, aole oe i manao mai ia'u.
20I cry to thee, and thou hearest me not: I stand up, and thou dost not regard me.
21Ua lilo oe i enemi no'u, Me ka ikaika o kou lima i hahai mai oe ia'u.
21Thou art changed to be cruel toward me, and in the hardness of thy hand thou art against me.
22Ua kaikai oe ia'u, A hooholo no oe ia'u maluna o ka makani; Ua hooheehee mai hoi ia'u a hoomakau mai.
22Thou hast lifted me up, and set me as it were upon the wind, and thou hast mightily dashed me.
23No ka mea, ua ike no au e hoihoi aku oe ia'u i ka make, A i ka hale e akoakoa ai ka poe a pau e ola ana.
23I know that thou wilt deliver me to death, where a house is appointed for every one that liveth.
24Aka, he mea ole ka pule, ke kikoo mai ia i kona lima, Ina e uwe lakou iloko o kona luku ana.
24But yet thou stretchest not forth thy hand to their consumption: and if they shall fall down thou wilt save.
25Aole anei au i uwe i kona la pilikia? Aole anei i kaumaha ko'u naau no ka poe ilihune?
25I wept heretofore for him that was afflicted, and my soul had compassion on the poor.
26I ka wa i kakali ai au i ka maikai, alaila hiki mai ka hewa; A ukali au i ka malamalama, alaila hiki mai ka pouli.
26I expected good things, and evils are come upon me: I waited for light, and darkness broke out.
27Ua kupikio kuu opu, aohe malie iho; Ua hiki e mai ia'u na la popilikia.
27My inner parts have boiled without any rest, the days of affliction have prevented me.
28Ke hele eleele nei au, aole nae i ka la: Ku no au iluna maloko o ka ahakanaka, a uwe aku au.
28I went mourning without indignation; I rose up, and cried in the crowd.
29Ua lilo au i hoahanau no na iliohae, A i hoalauna no na iana.
29I was the brother of dragons, and companion of ostriches.
30Ua eleele kuu ili maluna o'u, A ua hoaia kuu mau iwi i ka wela.
30My skin is become black upon me, and my bones are dried up with heat.
31A ua lilo kuu lira no ke kanikau, A o kuu mea hookiokio no ka leo o ka poe e uwe ana.
31My harp is turned to mourning, and my organ into the voice of those that weep.
