< Job 39 >
1 Knowest thou the time when the wild goats of the rock bring forth? Or canst thou mark when the hinds do calve?
U A ike anei oe i ka wa e hanau ai na kao hihiu o ka pali? Ua malama anei oe i ka hanau ana o na dia?
2 Canst thou number the months that they fulfil? Or knowest thou the time when they bring forth?
E hiki anei ia oe ke helu i na malama o ko lakou koko ana? A ua ike anei oe i ka wa e hanau ai lakou?
3 They bow themselves, they bring forth their young, they cast out their fruit.
Kulou iho no lakou, hanau mai i ka lakou mau keiki, I ka wa i pau ai ko lakou nahunahu ana.
4 Their young ones wax strong, they grow up in the open field; they go forth, and return not again.
Ua ikaika ka lakou poe keiki, Nui ae la lakou, ma ka waonahele; Hele aku lakou aole e hoi hou mai io lakou la.
5 Who hath sent out the wild ass free? Or who hath loosed the bands of the wild ass?
Owai la ka i hookuu wale aku i ka hoki hihiu? Owai hoi ka i kala ae i na mea paa o ka hoki hihiu?
6 Whose house I have made the wilderness, and the salt land his dwelling-place.
O kona hale ka waonahele a'u i hana'i, A o kahi panoa kona noho ana.
7 He scorneth the tumult of the city, neither heareth he the shoutings of the driver.
Akaaka no ia i ka haunaele o ke kulanakauhale, Aole ia e hoolohe i ka wawa o ke kahu holoholona.
8 The range of the mountains is his pasture, and he searcheth after every green thing.
O ka mea i loaa o na mauna, oia kana ai, A imi no ia i na mea uliuli a pau.
9 Will the wild-ox be willing to serve thee? Or will he abide by thy crib?
E ae mai anei ka reema e hookauwa nau, E noho no ia ma kou wahi hanai?
10 Canst thou bind the wild-ox with his band in the furrow? Or will he harrow the valleys after thee?
E hiki ia oe ke hoopaa i ka reema ma ke auwaha me kona kaula? E hana anei ia i na awawa me ka oopalau mahope ou?
11 Wilt thou trust him, because his strength is great? Or wilt thou leave thy labour to him?
E hilinai anei oe ia ia no ka nui o kona ikaika? E waiho anei oe i kau hana ia ia?
12 Wilt thou rely on him, that he will bring home thy seed, and gather the corn of thy threshing-floor?
E manao anei oe ia ia i hoihoi mai ia i kau ai. A e hoiliili i kau hua palaoa?
13 The wing of the ostrich beateth joyously; but are her pinions and feathers the kindly stork's?
O ka eheu o ka iana ke hele wikiwiki; He eheu anei a he hulu kona e like me ko ka setoreka?
14 For she leaveth her eggs on the earth, and warmeth them in dust,
No ka mea, waiho no ia i kona hua iloko o ka honua, A hoopumehana ia lakou ma ka lepo,
15 And forgetteth that the foot may crush them, or that the wild beast may trample them.
A hoopoina no ia e hoopepe auanei ka wawae ia lakou, A o ka holoholona hihiu o ke kula e hehi iho ia lakou.
16 She is hardened against her young ones, as if they were not hers; though her labour be in vain, she is without fear;
Ua hana paakiki aku ia i kana mau keiki, me he mea la aole nana; He make hewa kona luhi, a he makau ole nae.
17 Because God hath deprived her of wisdom, neither hath He imparted to her understanding.
Na ke Akua no ia i hoonele i ke akamai, Aole hoi ia i haawi ia ia i ka naauao.
18 When the time cometh, she raiseth her wings on high, and scorneth the horse and his rider.
Aka, i ka wa i hooholo ai oia ia ia iho, Ua akaaka no ia i ka lio a me kona mea hooholo.
19 Hast thou given the horse his strength? Hast thou clothed his neck with fierceness?
Ua haawi anei oe i ka ikaika no ka lio? Ua hoaahu anei oe i kona a-i i ka hulu haalulu?
20 Hast thou made him to leap as a locust? The glory of his snorting is terrible.
E hiki anei ia oe ke hoolele ia ia e like me ka uhini? A kona hau nui ana, he mea weliweli ia.
21 He paweth in the valley, and rejoiceth in his strength; he goeth out to meet the clash of arms.
Helu no oia ma ke awawa, a olioli ikaika: Hele aku e halawai me ka mea kaua.
22 He mocketh at fear, and is not affrighted; neither turneth he back from the sword.
Ua akaaka no ia i ka makau, aole haalulu; Aole ia e huli ae mai ka pahikaua aku.
23 The quiver rattleth upon him, the glittering spear and the javelin.
Nakeke ke aapua ia ia, O ka maka o ka ihe a me ka pahi.
24 He swalloweth the ground with storm and rage; neither believeth he that it is the voice of the horn.
Me ka hau ana a me ka huhu, ua ale no ia i ka aina: Aole ia e ku malie i ka wa e kani ai ka pu.
25 As oft as he heareth the horn he saith: 'Ha, ha!' and he smelleth the battle afar off, the thunder of the captains, and the shouting.
I waena o na pu kani, i iho la ia, Ha, ha! A honi aku la ia i ke kaua ma kahi loihi, I ka uwa ana o na luna, a me ka hooho kaua.
26 Doth the hawk soar by thy wisdom, and stretch her wings toward the south?
Na kou naauao anei e lele aku ka nisu, Hohola aku no ia i kona mau eheu ma ke kukulu hema?
27 Doth the vulture mount up at thy command, and make her nest on high?
Na kau kauoha anei i lele ae iluna ka aeto, A e kau i kona punana ma kahi kiekie?
28 She dwelleth and abideth on the rock, upon the crag of the rock, and the stronghold.
Ma ka pali no ia i noho ai a hoomau ai, Maluna o kahi oioi o ka pohaku, a ma kahi paa.
29 From thence she spieth out the prey; her eyes behold it afar off.
Malaila mai no ia i imi ai i ka mea pio, A nana ae kona maka i kahi loihi.
30 Her young ones also suck up blood; and where the slain are, there is she.
O kana poe keiki, inu lakou i ke koko; A ma kahi o na heana, malaila no oia.
