Tongan Bible, Revised West Version
1Respondens autem Dominus Job de turbine, dixit:
1Pea naʻe folofola pe ʻa Sihova kia Siope, ʻo pehē,
2[Accinge sicut vir lumbos tuos: interrogabo te, et indica mihi.
2“Ko ia ʻoku ne fakakikihi ki he Māfimafi te ne akonaki ia? Ko ia ʻoku ne valokiʻi ʻae ʻOtua, tuku ke ne talia ia.”
3Numquid irritum facies judicium meum, et condemnabis me, ut tu justificeris?
3¶ Pea naʻe toki tali ʻe Siope kia Sihova, ʻo ne pehē,
4Et si habes brachium sicut Deus? et si voce simili tonas?
4“Vakai kuo u kovi; ko e hā te u tali ʻaki koe? Te u ʻai hoku nima ki hoku ngutu.
5Circumda tibi decorem, et in sublime erigere, et esto gloriosus, et speciosis induere vestibus.
5Kuo u lea ʻo tuʻo taha ka ʻe ʻikai te u toe lea: ʻio, kuo tuʻo ua ka ʻe ʻikai te u toe lea atu.”
6Disperge superbos in furore tuo, et respiciens omnem arrogantem humilia.
6¶ Pea naʻe toki folofola ʻa Sihova kia Siope mei he ʻahiohio, ʻo pehē,
7Respice cunctos superbos, et confunde eos, et contere impios in loco suo.
7“Ko eni, ke ke nonoʻo ho noʻotangavala ʻo taau mo e tangata: pea te u ʻeke kiate koe, pea ke fakahā mai kiate au.
8Absconde eos in pulvere simul, et facies eorum demerge in foveam.
8Te ke fakataʻeʻaongaʻi ʻa ʻeku fakamaau foki? Te ke fakahalaia au, koeʻuhi ke ke māʻoniʻoni koe?
9Et ego confitebor quod salvare te possit dextera tua.
9Kuo ke maʻu ʻae nima ʻo hangē ko e ʻOtua? Pe ʻoku ke faʻa mana koe ʻaki ʻae leʻo ʻo hangē ko ia?
10Ecce behemoth quem feci tecum, fœnum quasi bos comedet.
10“Ko eni, ke ke teuʻi koe ʻaki ʻae māfimafi mo e ngeia; mo ke kofuʻaki koe ʻae nāunau mo e toulekeleka.
11Fortitudo ejus in lumbis ejus, et virtus illius in umbilico ventris ejus.
11Tufaki ke mamaʻo ʻae tuputāmaki ʻo ho houhau: pea vakai kiate kinautolu taki taha kotoa pē ʻoku laukau, ʻo fakavaivai ia.
12Stringit caudam suam quasi cedrum; nervi testiculorum ejus perplexi sunt.
12Vakai kiate ia kotoa pē ʻoku fielahi, pea ʻohifo ia ki lalo; pea molomoloki hifo ʻae kau angahala ʻi honau potu.
13Ossa ejus velut fistulæ æris; cartilago illius quasi laminæ ferreæ.
13Fakafufū ʻakinautolu fakataha ʻi he efu; pea nonoʻo honau mata ʻi he lilo.
14Ipse est principium viarum Dei: qui fecit eum applicabit gladium ejus.
14Pea te u toki fakamoʻoni kiate koe, ʻe faʻa fakamoʻui koe ʻe ho nima toʻomataʻu ʻoʻou.
15Huic montes herbas ferunt: omnes bestiæ agri ludent ibi.
15“Ko eni, ke ke vakai ki he Piʻimote, ʻaia kuo u ngaohi mo koe; ʻoku ne kai mohuku ʻo hangē ko e fanga pulu:
16Sub umbra dormit in secreto calami, et in locis humentibus.
16Vakai, ʻoku ʻi hono fasiʻatuʻa ʻa hono mālohi, mo ʻene mafai ʻoku ʻi he pito ʻo hono kete.
17Protegunt umbræ umbram ejus: circumdabunt eum salices torrentis.
17ʻOku ne ueʻi hono iku ʻo hangē ko e sita: ko e uoua ʻo hono tenga ʻoku fefihitaki fakataha.
18Ecce absorbebit fluvium, et non mirabitur, et habet fiduciam quod influat Jordanis in os ejus.
18Ko hono ngaahi hui ʻoku tatau mo e ngaahi konga palasa mālohi; ʻoku tatau hono ngaahi hui mo e ngaahi vaʻa ʻaione.
19In oculis ejus quasi hamo capiet eum, et in sudibus perforabit nares ejus.
19Ko e lahi ia ʻoe ngaahi ngāue ʻae ʻOtua: ko ia naʻa ne ngaohi ia ʻoku ne faʻa fai ke fakaofi ʻene heletā kiate ia.
20An extrahere poteris Leviathan hamo, et fune ligabis linguam ejus?
20Ko e moʻoni, ʻoku tupu hake ʻi he ngaahi moʻunga ʻae meʻakai maʻana, ʻaia ʻoku fakavā ai ʻae ngaahi manu kotoa pē ʻoe ngoue.
21Numquid pones circulum in naribus ejus, aut armilla perforabis maxillam ejus?
21ʻOku tokoto ia ʻi he lolo ʻakau malumalu, ʻi he lilolilo ʻoe kaho, mo e ngaahi ano.
22Numquid multiplicabit ad te preces, aut loquetur tibi mollia?
22Ko e ngaahi ʻakau malumalu ʻoku ʻufiʻufi ia ʻaki honau ata; ʻoku tuʻu takatakai ʻiate ia ʻae ngaahi uilou ʻoe vaitafe.
23Numquid feriet tecum pactum, et accipies eum servum sempiternum?
23Vakai, ʻoku ne inu ʻae vaitafe ʻo maha, pea ʻikai toʻotoʻo: ʻoku tui ia te ne faʻa mimisi hake ʻa Sioatani ki hono ngutu.
24Numquid illudes ei quasi avi, aut ligabis eum ancillis tuis?
24ʻOku ne maʻu ia ʻaki hono mata: ʻoku ne tuiʻi ʻae ngaahi tauhele ʻaki hono iku.
25Concident eum amici? divident illum negotiatores?
