King James Version with Apocrypha
Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
1Then answered Bildad the Shuhite, and said,
1A LAILA olelo mai la o Biledada, no Suha, i mai la,
2How long wilt thou speak these things ? and how long shall the words of thy mouth be like a strong wind?
2Pehea la ka loihi o kau olelo ana i keia mau mea? A he makani ikaika na huaolelo o kou waha?
3Doth God pervert judgment? or doth the Almighty pervert justice?
3E hookahuli anei ke Akua i ka pololei? A e hookekee anei ka Mea mana i ka pono?
4If thy children have sinned against him, and he have cast them away for their transgression;
4Ina paha ua hana hewa kau poe keiki ia ia, Alaila kiola aku la ia ia lakou, no ko lakou lawehala ana;
5If thou wouldest seek unto God betimes, and make thy supplication to the Almighty;
5Ina e imi oe i ke Akua, A e nonoi aku oe i ka Mea mana;
6If thou wert pure and upright; surely now he would awake for thee, and make the habitation of thy righteousness prosperous.
6Ina ua maemae oe a pono hoi; He oiaio no, ina ua ala mai no ia ano nou, A ua hoomalu mai ia i ka hale o kou pono ana.
7Though thy beginning was small, yet thy latter end should greatly increase.
7Ina ua uuku kou hoomaka ana i kinohou, O kou hopena, e mahuahua loa ana no ia.
8For enquire, I pray thee, of the former age, and prepare thyself to the search of their fathers:
8No ka mea, ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e ninau aku oe i ka hanauna mamua, A e hoomakaukau oe e noonoo i ko lakou poe makua:
9(For we are but of yesterday, and know nothing, because our days upon earth are a shadow:)
9(No ka mea, inehinei wale no kakou, aohe ike, A o ko kakou mau la ma ka honua, he aka no ia:)
10Shall not they teach thee, and tell thee, and utter words out of their heart?
10Aole anei lakou e ao mai ia oe, a e hai mai ia oe, A e hoike mai i na olelo mailoko mai o ko lakou naau?
11Can the rush grow up without mire? can the flag grow without water?
11E ulu anei ke papuro ke ole ka lepo poho? E ulu anei ka akaakai ke ole ka wai?
12Whilst it is yet in his greenness, and not cut down, it withereth before any other herb.
12I kona manawa uliuli, aole i okiia, Ua mae no ia mamua o na mauu e ae a pau.
13So are the paths of all that forget God; and the hypocrite’s hope shall perish:
13Pela no ka hope o ka poe a pau e hoopoina ana i ke Akua; A pela no ka manaolana o ka aia e make ai.
14Whose hope shall be cut off, and whose trust shall be a spider’s web.
14O kona manaolana e okiia'ku ia, A o kona mea hilinai, he punawelewele no ia.
15He shall lean upon his house, but it shall not stand: he shall hold it fast, but it shall not endure.
15E hilinai iho oia maluna o kona hale, aka, aole ia e paa: E hoopaa aku oia ia mea, aole nae ia e kupono.
16He is green before the sun, and his branch shooteth forth in his garden.
16Ua uliuli oia imua o ka la, A kupu ae kona mau lala ma kona kihapai.
17His roots are wrapped about the heap, and seeth the place of stones.
17Ua awiliia kona mau aa ma ka waikahe, A ike iho la ia i kahi o na pohaku.
18If he destroy him from his place, then it shall deny him, saying , I have not seen thee.
18Aka, e hoopauia aku ia mea mai kona wahi aku, Alaila e hoole mai oia ia ia, aole au i ike ia oe.
19Behold, this is the joy of his way, and out of the earth shall others grow.
19Aia hoi, oia ka olioli o kona aoao, A mailoko mai o ka lepo e kupu ae na mea e.
20Behold, God will not cast away a perfect man , neither will he help the evil doers:
20Aia hoi, aole ke Akua e hoowahawaha i ka mea pono, Aole hoi ia e kokua aku i ka poe hana hewa:
21Till he fill thy mouth with laughing, and thy lips with rejoicing.
21A hoopiha mai ia i kou waha i ka akaaka, A i kou lehelehe i ka hooho olioli.
22They that hate thee shall be clothed with shame; and the dwelling place of the wicked shall come to nought.
22O ka poe inaina ia oe e hoaahuia lakou i ka hilahila: A e lilo ka hale o ka poe hewa i mea ole.
