Ioba 37
Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
World English Bible
1NO keia mea hoi haalulu kuu naau, A nauwe ae mai kona wahi aku.
1“Yes, at this my heart trembles, and is moved out of its place.
2E hoolohe pono i ka poha ana o kona leo, A me ka halulu e puka ana mai kona waha mai.
2Hear, oh, hear the noise of his voice, the sound that goes out of his mouth.
3Malalo o ka lani a pau nana no ia i nou aku, A o kona malamalama i na welau o ka honua.
3He sends it out under the whole sky, and his lightning to the ends of the earth.
4Mahope o ia mea, poha mai ka leo; Hoohekili mai ia me kona leo mana; Aole ia e hoopaa ia lakou i loheia'i kona leo.
4After it a voice roars. He thunders with the voice of his majesty. He doesn’t hold back anything when his voice is heard.
5Hoohekili kupanaha mai la ke Akua me kona leo; Hana no ia i na mea nui, aole e ike maopopo ia.
5God thunders marvelously with his voice. He does great things, which we can’t comprehend.
6No ka mea, ua i aku ia i ka hau, E kau ma ka honua, A i ka ua liilii, a me ka ua nui o kona ikaika.
6For he says to the snow, ‘Fall on the earth,’ likewise to the shower of rain, and to the showers of his mighty rain.
7Hoopaa aku ia i ka lima o na kanaka a pau, I ike na kanaka a pau i kana haua.
7He seals up the hand of every man, that all men whom he has made may know it.
8A komo na holoholona iloko o na lua, A noho ma ko lakou mau wahi.
8Then the animals take cover, and remain in their dens.
9Mai ke kukulu hema i hele mai ka puahiohio, A mai ke kukulu akau ke anu.
9Out of its room comes the storm, and cold out of the north.
10Mai ka hanu o ke Akua i haawiia mai ka wai paa: A o ka palahalaha o na wai, ua hoopaaia.
10By the breath of God, ice is given, and the width of the waters is frozen.
11O ka wa malie hoi, ua kipaku ia i ke ao: Ua hoohehee kona malamalama i ka ohu:
11Yes, he loads the thick cloud with moisture. He spreads abroad the cloud of his lightning.
12A ua hoohuliia'ku ia a puni ma kona manao; I hana aku ai lakou i na mea a pau ana i kauoha mai ai, Ma ke alo o ka honua a puni.
12It is turned around by his guidance, that they may do whatever he commands them on the surface of the habitable world,
13Ina no ka laau hahau, ina no kona aina, Ina no ke aloha, nana no ia i hoopuka mai.
13whether it is for correction, or for his land, or for loving kindness, that he causes it to come.
14E hoolohe mai oe, e Ioba, i keia; E ku malie, a e noonoo i na hana kupanaha a ke Akua.
14“Listen to this, Job. Stand still, and consider the wondrous works of God.
15Ua ike anei oe i ka hooponopono ana o ke Akua ia lakou, A hoopuka mai i ka malamalama o kona ao?
15Do you know how God controls them, and causes the lightning of his cloud to shine?
16Ua ike anei i na kaupaona ana o na ao, I na hana kupanaha o ka mea hemolele i ka ike?
16Do you know the workings of the clouds, the wondrous works of him who is perfect in knowledge?
17A pehea hoi i mahana ai kou kapa, I ka wa i hoomalie mai ai oia i ka aina i ka makani kukulu hema?
17You whose clothing is warm when the earth is still by reason of the south wind?
18E hiki anei ia oe me ia ke hohola aku i ke aouli, He ikaika, e like me ke aniani i hooheheeia?
18Can you, with him, spread out the sky, which is strong as a cast metal mirror?
19E hoike mai oe ia makou i ka mea a makou e olelo aku ai ia ia; Aole makou e olelo aku, no ka pouli.
19Teach us what we will tell him, for we can’t make our case by reason of darkness.
20E haiia aku anei ia ia, ke olelo aku au? Ina e olelo aku ke kanaka, e aleia auanei oia.
20Will it be told him that I would speak? Or should a man wish that he were swallowed up?
21Ano aole lakou i ike i ka malamalama alohilohi iloko o na ao; A hele ae la ka makani a hoomaemae ia lakou.
21Now men don’t see the light which is bright in the skies, but the wind passes, and clears them.
22Mai ke kukulu akau ke alohilohi gula i hele mai ai; Aia i ke Akua ka nani weliweli.
22Out of the north comes golden splendor. With God is awesome majesty.
23O ka Mea mana, aole e loaa ia kakou ia; Ua hoonui i ka ikaika, a i ka pono, a ua nui hoi i ka lokomaikai; Aole ia e hookaumaha.
23We can’t reach the Almighty. He is exalted in power. In justice and great righteousness, he will not oppress.
24A makau na kanaka ia ia; Aole ia e maliu mai i ka poe naauao a pau.
24Therefore men revere him. He doesn’t regard any who are wise of heart.”
