King James Version with Apocrypha
Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
1But Job answered and said,
1A OLELO mai la o loba, i mai la,
2Hear diligently my speech, and let this be your consolations.
2E hoolohe pono oukou i ka'u olelo, A o keia ko oukou hooluolu ana.
3Suffer me that I may speak; and after that I have spoken, mock on.
3E ae mai oukou ia'u e olelo aku ai au, A mahope o kuu olelo, e hoomaewaewa oukou.
4As for me, is my complaint to man? and if it were so , why should not my spirit be troubled?
4Owau hoi, i ke kanaka anei kuu ulono ana? A ina pela, no ke aha la ka huhu ole o kuu uhane?
5Mark me, and be astonished, and lay your hand upon your mouth.
5E nana oukou ia'u a e pihoihoi, A e kau oukou i ka lima maluna o ka waha.
6Even when I remember I am afraid, and trembling taketh hold on my flesh.
6A ina e hoomanao wau, ua weliweli au, A loohia kuu io e ka haalulu.
7Wherefore do the wicked live, become old, yea, are mighty in power?
7No ke aha la e ola ana ka poe hewa, E elemakule ana, e nui ana hoi i ka waiwai?
8Their seed is established in their sight with them, and their offspring before their eyes.
8O ko lakou hua, ua hookupaaia me lakou imua o ko lakou alo, A o ka lakou poe keiki imua o ko lakou maka.
9Their houses are safe from fear, neither is the rod of God upon them.
9Ua maluhia ko lakou mau hale, aohe makau, Aole hoi ka laau hahau o ke Akua maluna o lakou.
10Their bull gendereth, and faileth not; their cow calveth, and casteth not her calf.
10Hapai no ka lakou bipi, aole hoi i hemahema; Hua mai no ka lakou bipiohi, aole i hanau hapa.
11They send forth their little ones like a flock, and their children dance.
11Kuu aku lakou i ka lakou poe kamalii me he kumu hipa la, A lelele no ka lakou poe keiki.
12They take the timbrel and harp, and rejoice at the sound of the organ.
12Hoomaka lakou me ka pahu kani a me ka lira, A olioli lakou i ke kani ana o ka hokiokio.
13They spend their days in wealth, and in a moment go down to the grave.
13Noho lakou i ko lakou mau la me ka pomaikai, A iho koke lakou i ka po.
14Therefore they say unto God, Depart from us; for we desire not the knowledge of thy ways.
14A olelo iho lakou i ke Akua, E hele oe mai o makou aku; A o ka ike i kou mau aoao, aohe makou makemake.
15What is the Almighty, that we should serve him? and what profit should we have, if we pray unto him?
15Owai ka Mea mana, i malama ai kakou ia ia? Heaha ka mea e loaa ai, ke nonoi kakou ia ia?
16Lo, their good is not in their hand: the counsel of the wicked is far from me.
16Aia hoi, aole ma ko lakou lima ko lakou pomaikai: O ke kuka ana o ka poe hewa, ua mamao aku ia ia'u.
17How oft is the candle of the wicked put out! and how oft cometh their destruction upon them! God distributeth sorrows in his anger.
17He pinepine i pio ai ke kukui o ka poe hewa, A e hiki koke mai hoi ko lakou make maluna o lakou, A ua hooili mai ia i na eha ma kona inaina.
18They are as stubble before the wind, and as chaff that the storm carrieth away.
18Ua like lakou me ka mauu maloo imua o ka makani, E like hoi me ka opala a ka puahiohio i lawe aku.
19God layeth up his iniquity for his children: he rewardeth him, and he shall know it .
19Ua hoomau ke Akua i kona hewa no kana poe keiki: Ua uku mai ia ia ia, a e ike auanei oia.
20His eyes shall see his destruction, and he shall drink of the wrath of the Almighty.
20E ike no kona maka i kona popilikia. E inu no ia i ka huhu o ka Mea mana.
21For what pleasure hath he in his house after him, when the number of his months is cut off in the midst?
21No ka mea, heaha la kana hana iloko o kona hale mahope ona, I ka manawa e okiia'i mawaena ka huina o kona mau malama?
22Shall any teach God knowledge? seeing he judgeth those that are high.
22K ao mai anei kekahi i ke Akua i ka ike, I ka mea hooponopono i ka poe kiekie?
23One dieth in his full strength, being wholly at ease and quiet.
23Make no kekahi iwaena o kona pomaikai, E noho nanea ana a me ka oluolu.
24His breasts are full of milk, and his bones are moistened with marrow.
24Ua piha kona mau aoao i ka momona, Ua mau kona mau iwi i ka lolo.
25And another dieth in the bitterness of his soul, and never eateth with pleasure.
25A make no kekahi me ka naau ehaeha, Aole ia i hoao i ka lealea.
26They shall lie down alike in the dust, and the worms shall cover them.
26E moe pu laua i ka lepo, A e paapu na ilo maluna o laua.
27Behold, I know your thoughts, and the devices which ye wrongfully imagine against me.
27Aia hoi, ua ike no wau i ko oukou mau noonoo ana, A me ko oukou mau manao a oukou i hoino ai ia'u.
28For ye say, Where is the house of the prince? and where are the dwelling places of the wicked?
28No ka mea, ke olelo nei oukou, Auhea ka hale o ke alii? Auhea hoi ka uhi o na halelewa o ka poe hewa?
29Have ye not asked them that go by the way? and do ye not know their tokens,
29Aole anei oukou i ninau i ka poe e maalo ae ana ma ke ala? A ike ole anei oukou i ko lakou mau hoailona?
30That the wicked is reserved to the day of destruction? they shall be brought forth to the day of wrath.
30No ka mea, ua waihoia ka poe hewa no ka la popilikia, A e laweia mai lakou no ka la e inaina ai.
31Who shall declare his way to his face? and who shall repay him what he hath done?
31Owai ka mea e hoike aku i kona aoao imua ona? A owai ka mea e uku aku ia ia i kana mea i hana'i?
32Yet shall he be brought to the grave, and shall remain in the tomb.
32A e laweia aku oia i ka luakupapau, A e kiaiia oia ma ka hale kupapau.
33The clods of the valley shall be sweet unto him, and every man shall draw after him, as there are innumerable before him.
33E kau oluolu maluna ona na papaa lepo o ke awawa, A mahope ona e hahai aku na kanaka a pau, E like me ka poe mamua ona he lehulehu no.
34How then comfort ye me in vain, seeing in your answers there remaineth falsehood?
34A pehea la ko oukou hooluolu make hewa ana mai ia'u, A ua hewa ka oukou olelo ana mai?
