King James Version with Apocrypha
Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
1Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered and said,
1A LAILA olelo aku o Elipaza, i aku la,
2Can a man be profitable unto God, as he that is wise may be profitable unto himself?
2E hiki anei i ke kanaka, ke hoopomaikai i ke Akua, E like me ka mea naauao, e hoopomaikai ia ia iho?
3Is it any pleasure to the Almighty, that thou art righteous? or is it gain to him , that thou makest thy ways perfect?
3He mea oluolu anei ke pono oe i ka Mea mana? A e waiwai anei oia ke hoohemolele oe i kou mau aoao?
4Will he reprove thee for fear of thee? will he enter with thee into judgment?
4No ka makau ia oe, e hoopaapaa mai anei ia ia oe? E hele mai anei ia me oe ma ka hooponopono ana?
5Is not thy wickedness great? and thine iniquities infinite?
5Aole anei he nui kou hewa? A ua hope ole kou mau hala?
6For thou hast taken a pledge from thy brother for nought, and stripped the naked of their clothing.
6No ka mea, ua hoopanai wale oe i kou hoahanau, A ua lawe oe i na aahu o ka poe kapa ole.
7Thou hast not given water to the weary to drink, and thou hast withholden bread from the hungry.
7Aole oe i haawi i ka wai i ka mea nawaliwali, A ua ana oe i ka berena i ka mea pololi.
8But as for the mighty man, he had the earth; and the honourable man dwelt in it.
8Aka, o ke kanaka ikaika, nona ka honua; A noho iho la ka mea koikoi ilaila.
9Thou hast sent widows away empty, and the arms of the fatherless have been broken.
9Ua hoihoi nele aku oe i na wahinekanemake, A ua paopaoia na lima o na mea makua ole.
10Therefore snares are round about thee, and sudden fear troubleth thee;
10Nolaila ua puni oe i na pahele, A o ka makau wale ke hooweliweli mai nei ia oe;
11Or darkness, that thou canst not see; and abundance of waters cover thee.
11A o ka pouli paha au i ike ole ai; A he nui loa ka wai e halana ana maluna ou.
12Is not God in the height of heaven? and behold the height of the stars, how high they are!
12Aole anei ke Akua ma ka lani kiekie? Aia hoi, ke poo o na hoku, ua kiekie lakou.
13And thou sayest, How doth God know? can he judge through the dark cloud?
13A i mai la oe, Pehea la ke Akua e ike ai? E hiki anei ia ke hooponopono mawaena mai o ke ao pouli?
14Thick clouds are a covering to him, that he seeth not; and he walketh in the circuit of heaven.
14O na ao naulu ka uhi nona, i ike ole ai ia, A hele no ia ma ka poai o ka lani.
15Hast thou marked the old way which wicked men have trodden?
15Ua noonoo pono anei oe i ka aoao kahiko, Kahi a ka poe hewa i hele ai?
16Which were cut down out of time, whose foundation was overflown with a flood:
16Ka poe i noopauia mamua o ka manawa, Ua nininiia ke kaiakahinalii maluna o ko lakou kahua;
17Which said unto God, Depart from us: and what can the Almighty do for them?
17Ka poe i olelo aku i ke Akua, E hele mai o makou aku; A heaha ka ka Mea mana e hana mai ai no lakou?
18Yet he filled their houses with good things: but the counsel of the wicked is far from me.
18Ua hoopiha no nae ia i ko lakou mau hale i ka waiwai; Aka. o ka manao o ka poe hewa ua mamao loa aku ia ia'u.
19The righteous see it , and are glad: and the innocent laugh them to scorn.
19Ua ike no ka poe pono ia, a olioli, A akaaka ka poe hala ole ia lakou.
20Whereas our substance is not cut down, but the remnant of them the fire consumeth.
20Ina paha ua lukuia ko makou poe enemi, A ua hoopauia ka waiwai nui o lakou i ke ahi.
21Acquaint now thyself with him, and be at peace: thereby good shall come unto thee.
21E hookuikahi ae me ia ano, a e pomaikai; Pela no e hiki mai ai ka pomaikai ia oe.
22Receive, I pray thee, the law from his mouth, and lay up his words in thine heart.
22Ke koi aku nei au ia oe, E lawe oe i ke kanawai mai kona waha mai, A e waiho oe i kana mau olelo iloko o kou naau.
23If thou return to the Almighty, thou shalt be built up, thou shalt put away iniquity far from thy tabernacles.
23Ina e hoi hou oe i ka Mea mana, e kukuluia oe, E hoomamao loa aku oe i ka hewa mai kou mau halelewa aku.
24Then shalt thou lay up gold as dust, and the gold of Ophir as the stones of the brooks.
24A e hoolei aku oe i kou houlunlu ana i ke gula i ka lepo, A i ke gula Opira hoi i na pohaku o na kahawai
25Yea, the Almighty shall be thy defence, and thou shalt have plenty of silver.
25A o ka Mea mana kou gula, A me ke kala o na waiwai nou.
26For then shalt thou have thy delight in the Almighty, and shalt lift up thy face unto God.
26No ka mea, alaila e hauoli oe i ka Mea mana, A e hoala ae i kou maka i ke Akua.
27Thou shalt make thy prayer unto him, and he shall hear thee, and thou shalt pay thy vows.
27E pule aku no oe ia ia, a e hoolohe mai ia ia oe, A e hooko aku oe i na mea au i hoohiki ai.
28Thou shalt also decree a thing, and it shall be established unto thee: and the light shall shine upon thy ways.
28A e noonoo oe i kahi mea, a e hoopaaia oia nou; A e alohi mai ka malamalama maluna o kou mau ala.
29When men are cast down, then thou shalt say, There is lifting up; and he shall save the humble person.
29A e hoohaahaaia lakou, alaila e olelo oe, He kiekie; A e hoola mai no ia i ka mea i kulou na maka.
30He shall deliver the island of the innocent: and it is delivered by the pureness of thine hands.
30E hoopakele no ia i ka mea lawe hala; A e hoopakeleia oia ma ka maemae o kou mau lima.
