Ioba 36
Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
King James Version with Apocrypha
1OLELO hou aku la o Elihu, i aku la,
1Elihu also proceeded, and said,
2E ahonui iki mai ia'u, a e hoike aku au ia oe, No ka mea, he wahi olelo ka'u i koe no ke Akua.
2Suffer me a little, and I will shew thee that I have yet to speak on God’s behalf.
3E lawe mai no au i kuu ike mai kahi loihi mai, A e hoapono aku au i kuu mea nana i hana.
3I will fetch my knowledge from afar, and will ascribe righteousness to my Maker.
4No ka mea, aole e wahahee ka'u olelo; O ka mea hemolele i ka ike, oia me oe.
4For truly my words shall not be false: he that is perfect in knowledge is with thee.
5Aia hoi, he mana ke Akua, aole ia e hoowahawaha: He mana kona, he ikaika ka naauao.
5Behold, God is mighty, and despiseth not any: he is mighty in strength and wisdom.
6Aole ia e hoopomaikai i ka aia: Aka, e haawi no ia i ka pono no na ilihune.
6He preserveth not the life of the wicked: but giveth right to the poor.
7Aole ia e lawe ae i kona mau maka mai ka poe pono aku; Aia no ia me na'lii maluna o ka nohoalii; A e hoonoho paa no oia ia lakou, i kiekie ai lakou.
7He withdraweth not his eyes from the righteous: but with kings are they on the throne; yea, he doth establish them for ever, and they are exalted.
8A ina e hoopaaia lakou i na kaulahao, A e hoopaaia lakou i ke kaula o ka popilikia;
8And if they be bound in fetters, and be holden in cords of affliction;
9Alaila hoike no ia ia lakou i ka lakou hana, A me ko lakou hewa, no ka mea, ua hana kiekie lakou.
9Then he sheweth them their work, and their transgressions that they have exceeded.
10Wehe ae no ia i ko lakou pepeiao no ke ao ana, A olelo aku e huli mai lakou mai ka hewa mai.
10He openeth also their ear to discipline, and commandeth that they return from iniquity.
11Ina hoolohe lakou, a malama ia ia, E noho lakou i ko lakou mau la me ka pomaikai, A i ko lakou mau makahiki me ka oluolu.
11If they obey and serve him , they shall spend their days in prosperity, and their years in pleasures.
12Aka, i hoolohe ole lakou, e make lakou i ka pahikaua, A e make lakou iloko o ka naaupo.
12But if they obey not, they shall perish by the sword, and they shall die without knowledge.
13A o ka poe aia ma ka naau, hoiliili lakou i ka inaina: Aole lakou e kahea aku, i ka wa e hoopaa aku ai oia ia lakou.
13But the hypocrites in heart heap up wrath: they cry not when he bindeth them.
14E make no lakou i ka wa ui, A ua pau ko lakou ola ana iwaena o ka poe haumia.
14They die in youth, and their life is among the unclean.
15Hoopakele no ia i ka mea hune i kona popilikia, A wehe ae ia i ko lakou pepeiao i ka wa kaumaha.
15He delivereth the poor in his affliction, and openeth their ears in oppression.
16A lawe auanei hoi oia ia oe mai kahi pilikia a kahi akea, Ma kahi aohe ona pilikia: A o ka mea e kauia ma kou papaaina, e piha ia i ka momona.
16Even so would he have removed thee out of the strait into a broad place, where there is no straitness; and that which should be set on thy table should be full of fatness.
17Aka, i lawe paha oe i ka hewa o ka mea aia, O ka hoohewa, a me ka hoopai e hahai mai.
17But thou hast fulfilled the judgment of the wicked: judgment and justice take hold on thee .
18No ka mea, no ka huhu, [E ao,] o lawe aku oia ia oe me ka hahau ana; Alaila aole e hiki i ka panai nui ke hoopakele ia oe.
18Because there is wrath, beware lest he take thee away with his stroke: then a great ransom cannot deliver thee.
19E manao anei oia i kou waiwai? Aole! aole ke gula, aole hoi na mea waiwai a pau.
19Will he esteem thy riches? no , not gold, nor all the forces of strength.
20Mai iini oe i ka po, I ka wa i okiia'i na kanaka mai ko lakou wahi.
20Desire not the night, when people are cut off in their place.
21E makaala, mai malama oe i ka hewa: No ka mea, ua koho aku oe i keia mamua o ka popilikia.
21Take heed, regard not iniquity: for this hast thou chosen rather than affliction.
22Aia hoi, o ke Akua ke hookiekie ma kona mana, Owai ke ao aku e like me ia?
22Behold, God exalteth by his power: who teacheth like him?
23Owai la i kuhikuhi aku ia ia i kona aoao? Owai la ke olelo aku, Ua hana oe i ka hewa?
23Who hath enjoined him his way? or who can say, Thou hast wrought iniquity?
24E hoomanao, e hoonui aku oe i kana hana, Ka mea a na kanaka i ike ai.
24Remember that thou magnify his work, which men behold.
25E ike na kanaka a pau ia; E nana ke kanaka mai kahi loihi.
25Every man may see it; man may behold it afar off.
26Aia hoi, he nui ke Akua, aole kakou i ike, A o ka heluna o na makahiki ona, aole e huliia.
26Behold, God is great, and we know him not, neither can the number of his years be searched out.
27No ka mea, ua hoopii aku ia i na kulu wai; Ninini iho lakou he ua, noloko o kona ohu,
27For he maketh small the drops of water: they pour down rain according to the vapour thereof:
28Ka mea a na naulu i hookulukulu iho ai, A ninini nui maluna o ke kanaka.
28Which the clouds do drop and distil upon man abundantly.
29E hoomaopopo anei kekahi i ka hohola ana o na ao? A me ka halulu ana o kona halelewa?
29Also can any understand the spreadings of the clouds, or the noise of his tabernacle?
30Aia hoi, hohola aku no ia i kona malamalama maluna ona, A uhi no ia i ka hohonu o ke kai.
30Behold, he spreadeth his light upon it, and covereth the bottom of the sea.
31No ka mea, ma o lakou la ke hooponopono nei ia i na kanaka; Ke haawi nei ia i ka ai a nui loa.
31For by them judgeth he the people; he giveth meat in abundance.
32Me na poho lima ke uhi no ia i ka uila, A kauoha aku ia ia i kona wahi e kau ai:
32With clouds he covereth the light; and commandeth it not to shine by the cloud that cometh betwixt.
33I kuhikuhi aku ia ia ia i kona mau makamaka; Aia ka ahu ana o ka huhu maluna o ka mea hewa.
33The noise thereof sheweth concerning it, the cattle also concerning the vapour.
