Job 26
1 But Job answered and said,
A LAILA olelo mai la o Ioba, i mai la,
2 How hast thou helped [him that is] without power? [how] savest thou the arm [that hath] no strength?
Pehea la oe i kokua mai ai i ka mea nawaliwali? A hooikaika mai hoi oe i ka lima ikaika ole?
3 How hast thou counselled [him that hath] no wisdom? and [how] hast thou plentifully declared the thing as it is?
Pehea la oe i ao mai ai i ka mea ike ole? A hoike nui mai hoi oe i ka noeau?
4 To whom hast thou uttered words? and whose spirit came from thee?
Ia wai anei oe i hai aku i na olelo? Nowai ka hanu i puka ae mai ou mai la?
5 Dead [things] are formed from under the waters, and the inhabitants thereof.
O na mea i make, ua haalulu lakou mai lalo mai, O na wai a me kolaila poe e noho ana.
Ua ahuwale ka ka po imua ona, Aohe uhi no kahi o ka poe i make. (Sheol h7585)
7 He stretcheth out the north over the empty place, [and] hangeth the earth upon nothing.
Ua hohola aku ia i ke kukuluakau maluna o ka neoneo, Ua kau aku i ka honua maluna o ka mea ole.
8 He bindeth up the waters in his thick clouds; and the cloud is not rent under them.
Ua hoopaa oia i na wai maloko o na ao ona, Aole i nahae ke ao malalo o lakou.
9 He holdeth back the face of his throne, [and] spreadeth his cloud upon it.
Ua uhi no ia i ke alo o kona nohoalii, Ua hohola aku i kona ao maluna ona.
10 He hath compassed the waters with bounds, until the day and night come to an end.
Ua hoopuni oia i na wai i ka palena, A hiki i kahi e pau ai ka malamalama iloko o ka pouli.
11 The pillars of heaven tremble and are astonished at his reproof.
O na kia o ka lani ua haalulu, A weliweli hoi i kona papa ana mai.
12 He divideth the sea with his power, and by his understanding he smiteth through the proud.
Ua hoomalielie oia i ke kai ma kona mana, A ma kona naauao, hahau iho ia i kona kiekie.
13 By his spirit he hath garnished the heavens; his hand hath formed the crooked serpent.
Ma kona Uhane ua hoonani oia i na lani; Na kona lima i hana i ka nahesa e lele ana.
14 Lo, these [are] parts of his ways: but how little a portion is heard of him? but the thunder of his power who can understand?
Aia hoi, oia kekahi mau mea o kona mau aoao; Nani hoi ka uuku o ka mea i loheia nona! A o ka hekili o kona mana owai la ka mea e ike pono?
