Job 35

King James Version with Apocrypha

Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)

1Elihu spake moreover, and said,

1OLELO aku la hoi o Elihu, i aku la,

2Thinkest thou this to be right, that thou saidst, My righteousness is more than God’s?

2Ke manao nei oe he pono keia, O kau i olelo mai, O ko'u pono, ua oi mamua o ko ke Akua?

3For thou saidst, What advantage will it be unto thee? and , What profit shall I have, if I be cleansed from my sin?

3No ka mea, ua ninau mai oe, Heaha ka pono no'u? Heaha hoi ko'u pomaikai no kuu hewa ole ana?

4I will answer thee, and thy companions with thee.

4Owau ke hoihoi aku ia olelo iou la, A i kou mau hoalauna me oe.

5Look unto the heavens, and see; and behold the clouds which are higher than thou.

5E nana ae oe i ka lani, a ike; A e nana i na ao, ua kiekie lakou mamua ou.

6If thou sinnest, what doest thou against him? or if thy transgressions be multiplied, what doest thou unto him?

6Ina e hana hewa oe, heaha kau hana ia ia? Ina e hoonuiia kou mau hala, heaha kau e hana'i nana?

7If thou be righteous, what givest thou him? or what receiveth he of thine hand?

7Ina ua pono oe, heaha kau e haawi aku ai ia ia? Heaha kana e loaa'i mai kou lima aku?

8Thy wickedness may hurt a man as thou art; and thy righteousness may profit the son of man.

8No ke kanaka e like me oe kou hala, A no ke keiki a ke kanaka kou pono.

9By reason of the multitude of oppressions they make the oppressed to cry: they cry out by reason of the arm of the mighty.

9Ke uwe ae nei ka poe kaumaha no ka hooluhiia; I uwe lakou no ka lima o na mea koikoi.

10But none saith, Where is God my maker, who giveth songs in the night;

10Aka, aole e i mai kekahi, Auhea ke Akua nana au i hana, Ka mea i haawi mai i na mele olioli i ka po;

11Who teacheth us more than the beasts of the earth, and maketh us wiser than the fowls of heaven?

11O ka mea i ao mai ia kakou mamua o na holoholona o ka honua, A ua hoonaauao oia ia kakou mamua o na manu o ka lewa?

12There they cry, but none giveth answer, because of the pride of evil men.

12Malaila lakou e uwe ai, aole mea i ekemu mai, No ka haaheo o ka poe hewa.

13Surely God will not hear vanity, neither will the Almighty regard it.

13He oiaio, aole ke Akua e hoolohe mai i ka mea wahahee, Aole ka Mea mana e maliu mai ia.

14Although thou sayest thou shalt not see him, yet judgment is before him; therefore trust thou in him.

14Ina paha e olelo oe, aole oe i ike ia ia, Imua ona ka hooponopono, nolaila e kali aku oe ia ia.

15But now, because it is not so , he hath visited in his anger; yet he knoweth it not in great extremity:

15Ano hoi, he mea ole ka hoopai ana o kona inaina, Aole ia e haka pono mai i na hewa;

16Therefore doth Job open his mouth in vain; he multiplieth words without knowledge.

16Nolaila i oaka hewa mai ai ko Ioba waha, He hoonui olelo kana me ko ike ole.
