< 約伯記 2 >
1 又有一天,天主的眾子都前來侍立在上主面前,撒殫也夾在他們當中,侍立在上主面前。
Pea naʻe toe ai ʻae ʻaho naʻe fakataha ai ʻae ngaahi foha ʻoe ʻOtua ke fakahā ʻakinautolu ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, pea naʻe haʻu ai foki ʻa Sētane mo kinautolu ke fakahā ia ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova.
2 上主向撒殫說:「你從那裏來﹖」撒殫回答上主說:「我走遍了世界,周遊了各地回來。」
Pea pehē ʻe Sihova kia Sētane, “Kuo ke haʻu mei fē?” Pea tali ʻe Sētane kia Sihova, ʻo pehē, “Mei heʻeku fakatakamilo ʻa māmani, mo ʻeku feʻaluʻaki fano ʻi ai.”
3 上主對撒殫說:「你曾留心注意到我的僕人約伯嗎﹖世上沒有一個像他那樣十全十美,生性正直,敬畏天主,遠避邪惡的人。你雖然激動我加害他,無端叫他傾家蕩產,但他依然保持自己的完善。」
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova kia Sētane, “Kuo ke tokangaʻi ʻa ʻeku tamaioʻeiki ko Siope, he ʻoku ʻikai hano tatau ʻi māmani, ko e tangata haohaoa mo angatonu, ʻoku manavahē ia ki he ʻOtua, pea afe mei he kovi? Pea ʻoku ne kei kuku maʻu pe ʻene angatonu, ka naʻa ke ueʻi au ki ai, ke fakaʻauha ia taʻehanoʻuhinga.”
4 撒殫回答上主說:「那只不過是以皮換皮罷了! 人都肯捨棄所有,去保全自己的性命。
Pea naʻe tali ʻe Sētane kia Sihova, ʻo pehē, “Ko e kili maʻa e kili, ʻio, ʻe foaki ʻe he tangata ʻene meʻa kotoa pē ke ne moʻui ai.
5 但是,你若伸手打擊他的骨和肉,他必定當面詛咒你。」
Kae mafao atu eni ho nima, ʻo ala ki hono hui mo hono kakano, pea te ne lauʻikoviʻi koe ʻi ho fofonga.”
6 上主向撒殫說:「看,任你處置他,但要保留他的性命。」
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova kia Sētane, “Vakai, ʻoku ʻi ho nima ia; ka ko ʻene moʻui pe ʻe tapu.”
7 撒殫從上主那裏出來,就使約伯從足踵到頭頂都長了毒瘡。
Pea ʻalu ai ʻa Sētane mei he ʻao ʻo Sihova, ʻo ne taaʻi ʻaki ʻa Siope ʻae ngaahi hangatāmaki mamahi, ʻo fai mei hono ʻaofi vaʻe ʻo aʻu ki hono tumuʻaki.
Pea ne toʻo ʻe ia ʻae konga ipu maumau ʻo teletele ʻaki ia; pea tangutu ia ʻi he efuefu.
9 他的妻子向他說:「你還保持你的完善嗎﹖你倒不如詛咒天主,死了算了! 」
Pea pehē ai ʻe hono uaifi kiate ia, “ʻOku ke kei kuku hoʻo angatonu? Lea kovi ki he ʻOtua, ka ke mate.”
10 約伯向她說:「你說話,真像一個糊塗女人! 難道我們只由天主那裏接受恩惠,而不接受災禍嗎﹖」就這一切事而論,約伯沒有犯失言的過錯。
Ka naʻe pehē ʻe ia ki ai, “Ko hoʻo lea ʻoku hangē ko e lea ʻa ha taha ʻi he kau fefine vale. ʻIo! he te tau maʻu koā ʻae lelei mei he nima ʻoe ʻOtua, pea ʻikai te tau maʻu mo e kovi?” ʻI he ngaahi meʻa ni kotoa pē naʻe ʻikai angahala ʻa Siope ʻi hono loungutu.
11 約伯的三位朋友,特曼人厄里法次、叔亞人彼耳達得、納阿瑪人左法爾,聽說他遭遇了災禍,就各從本地起程,來到一起,去慰問他、勸勉他,
Pea ʻi he fanongo ʻae kāinga ʻe toko tolu ʻo Siope ki he kovi ni kotoa pē kuo tō kiate ia, naʻa nau haʻu mei honau potu taki taha; ko Elifasi mei Timani, mo Pilitati mei Suaa, mo Sofaa mei Neama: he kuo nau tālanga ke nau fakataha ke nau mamahi mo ia mo nau fakafiemālieʻi ia.
12 他們從遠處舉目一望,已認不得他,就放聲大哭,撕破了自己的外衣,把灰揚起,落在自己頭上。
Pea ʻi heʻenau hanga hake kiate ia mei he mamaʻo, ʻo ʻikai ʻilo ia, naʻa nau tangi leʻo lahi; pea naʻa nau taki taha haehae hono pulupulu, mo lī ʻae efu ki ʻolunga ki honau ʻulu.
13 他們於是同他在灰土中,坐了七天七夜,因見他受苦太大,沒有人敢向他說一句話。
Pea naʻa nau nonofo mo ia ʻi he kelekele ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fitu mo e pō ʻe fitu, pea naʻe ʻikai siʻi lea ha taha ki ai: he naʻa nau vakai kuo lahi ʻaupito ʻene mamahi.
