Tongan Bible, Revised West Version
1Respondens autem Job, dixit:
1Pea naʻe toki tali ʻe Siope, ʻo ne pehē,
2[Audivi frequenter talia: consolatores onerosi omnes vos estis.
2Kuo lahi ʻae meʻa pehē kuo u fanongo ai: ko e kau fakafiemālie fakamamahi ʻakimoutolu kotoa pē.
3Numquid habebunt finem verba ventosa? aut aliquid tibi molestum est, si loquaris?
3ʻE ngata afe ʻae launoa? Pe ko e hā ʻoku ne tokoniʻi koe ke ke tali?
4Poteram et ego similia vestri loqui, atque utinam esset anima vestra pro anima mea:
4Te u faʻa lea foki ʻeau ʻo hangē pe ko kimoutolu: ka ne fetongi ʻaki homou laumālie ʻa hoku laumālie, te u faʻa fokotuʻu lea kiate kimoutolu, pea te u kalokalo hoku ʻulu kiate kimoutolu.
5consolarer et ego vos sermonibus, et moverem caput meum super vos;
5Ka te u tokoniʻi ʻakimoutolu ʻaki hoku ngutu, pea ko e ueʻi ʻo hoku loungutu ʻe fakafiemālieʻi ʻakimoutolu.
6roborarem vos ore meo, et moverem labia mea, quasi parcens vobis.
6“Neongo ʻeku lea, ʻoku ʻikai fakasiʻisiʻi ʻeku mamahi: pea kapau te u taʻofi, ko e hā ʻeku fiemālie ai?
7Sed quid agam? Si locutus fuero, non quiescet dolor meus, et si tacuero, non recedet a me.
7Ka ko eni, kuo ne fakakikinaʻi au: kuo ke fakaʻauha ʻa hoku kāinga kotoa pē.
8Nunc autem oppressit me dolor meus, et in nihilum redacti sunt omnes artus mei.
8Kuo ke ʻufiʻufi ʻaki au ʻae feʻufeʻu, ko e fakamoʻoni ia: pea ʻoku ha hake hoku tutue ʻo valoki ki hoku mata.
9Rugæ meæ testimonium dicunt contra me, et suscitatur falsiloquus adversus faciem meam, contradicens mihi.
9ʻOku ne haehae au ʻi hono houhau, ʻaia ʻoku fehiʻa kiate au ʻoku ne fengaiʻitaki hono nifo kiate au, ʻoku matalili ʻa hoku fili kiate au.
10Collegit furorem suum in me, et comminans mihi, infremuit contra me dentibus suis: hostis meus terribilibus oculis me intuitus est.
10Kuo nau fakamanga honau ngutu kiate au; kuo taaʻi manuki au ʻi hoku kouʻahe; kuo nau fakataha ʻakinautolu kiate au.
11Aperuerunt super me ora sua, et exprobrantes percusserunt maxillam meam: satiati sunt pœnis meis.
11Kuo tukuange au ʻe he ʻOtua ki he kakai angahala, pea kuo ne lī au ki he nima ʻoe kakai fai kovi.
12Conclusit me Deus apud iniquum, et manibus impiorum me tradidit.
12Ne u fiemālie, ka kuo ne maumauʻi au: kuo ne kuku foki hoku kia, ʻo laiki au, ʻo fokotuʻu au ko hono fanaʻanga.
13Ego ille quondam opulentus, repente contritus sum: tenuit cervicem meam, confregit me, et posuit me sibi quasi in signum.
13ʻOku tuʻu takatakai kiate au ʻene kau tangata fana, ʻoku ne fahiua hoku konga loto, ʻo ʻikai tuku; ʻoku ne lilingi hoku ʻahu ki he kelekele.
14Circumdedit me lanceis suis; convulneravit lumbos meos: non pepercit, et effudit in terra viscera mea.
14ʻOku ne maumauʻi au ʻaki ʻae tā ki he tā, ʻoku ne ʻohofia au ʻo hangē pe ha fuʻu tangata lahi.
15Concidit me vulnere super vulnus: irruit in me quasi gigas.
15Kuo u tuitui ʻae tauangaʻa ki hoku kili, ʻo fakaʻuliʻi hoku nifo ʻi he efu.
16Saccum consui super cutem meam, et operui cinere carnem meam.
16ʻOku kovi hoku mata ʻi he tangi, pea ʻoku ʻi hoku laumata ʻae malumalu ʻoe mate;
17Facies mea intumuit a fletu, et palpebræ meæ caligaverunt.
17Ka ʻoku ʻikai ʻi ha taʻetotonu kuo ʻi hoku nima: pea ʻoku māʻoniʻoni foki ʻeku lotu.
18Hæc passus sum absque iniquitate manus meæ, cum haberem mundas ad Deum preces.
18“ʻE kelekele, ʻoua naʻa ke ʻuʻufi hoku toto, pea ʻoua naʻa hao ki ha potu ʻa ʻeku tangi.
19Terra, ne operias sanguinem meum, neque inveniat in te locum latendi clamor meus:
19Ko eni foki, vakai, ʻoku ʻi he langi hoku fakamoʻoni, pea ko ia ʻoku ne ʻiloʻi au ʻoku ʻi ʻolunga.
20ecce enim in cælo testis meus, et conscius meus in excelsis.
20ʻOku manukiʻi au ʻe hoku ngaahi kāinga: ka ʻoku lilingi ʻae loʻimata ʻa hoku mata ki he ʻOtua.
21Verbosi amici mei: ad Deum stillat oculus meus:
21Taumaiā ke faʻa alea ʻae tangata mo e ʻOtua, ʻo hangē ko e tangata mo hono kaungāʻapi!
22atque utinam sic judicaretur vir cum Deo, quomodo judicatur filius hominis cum collega suo.
22ʻOka hokosia ʻae ngaahi taʻu siʻi, te u toki ʻalu ʻi he hala ʻe ʻikai te u foki mei ai.
23Ecce enim breves anni transeunt, et semitam per quam non revertar ambulo.]
