Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
1Pea naʻe toki tali ʻe Pilitati mei Suaa, ʻo ne pehē,
1Then Baldad the Suhite answered, and I said:
2“ʻOku ʻiate ia ʻae pule mo e manavahēʻia, ʻoku ne fakamelino ʻi hono ngaahi potu māʻolunga.
2Power and terror are with him, who maketh peace in his high places.
3He ʻoku faʻa lauʻi ʻa ʻene ngaahi matatau? Pea ko hai ia ʻoku ʻikai hopo ki ai ʻa ʻene maama?
3Is there any numbering of his soldiers? and upon whom shall not his light arise?
4Pea ka kuo pehē, ʻe faʻa fakatonuhia fēfē ʻae tangata mo e ʻOtua? Pea ʻe maʻa fēfē ʻaia kuo fanauʻi ʻe he fefine?
4Can man be justified compared with God, or he that is born of a woman appear clean?
5Vakai pē ki he māhina, pea ʻoku ʻikai huhulu ia; ʻio, ko e ngaahi fetuʻu ʻoku ʻikai maʻa ʻi hono ʻao.
5Behold even the moon doth not shine, and the stars are not pure in his sight.
6Ka ʻe huanoa ʻae tangata ʻaia ko e kelemutu? Mo e foha ʻoe tangata, ʻaia ko e kelemutu?”
6How much less man that is rottenness and the son of man who is a worm?
