< Job 32 >

1 And these three men cease from answering Job, for he [is] righteous in his own eyes,
Heoi mutu ake te whakahoki kupu a enei tangata tokotoru ki a Hopa, no te mea he tika ia ki tona nei whakaaro.
2 and the anger of Elihu son of Barachel the Buzite burns, of the family of Ram; his anger has burned against Job, because of his justifying himself more than God;
Na kua mura te riri o Erihu tama a Parakere Puti, no te whanau i a Rame: mura ana tona riri ki a Hopa, no te mea ki tana tika rawa ia i te Atua.
3 and his anger has burned against his three friends, because that they have not found an answer, and condemn Job.
I mura ano tona riri ki ona hoa tokotoru, no te mea kihai i kitea e ratou he kupu hei whakahokinga atu, heoi kei te whakahe ano ratou i a Hopa.
4 And Elihu has waited earnestly beside Job with words, for they are older than he in days.
Na i tatari a Erihu kia korero ia ki a Hopa, no te mea he kaumatua ake ratou i a ia.
5 And Elihu sees that there is no answer in the mouth of the three men, and his anger burns.
A, no te kitenga o Erihu kahore he kupu i nga mangai o aua tangata tokotoru hei whakahokinga atu, mura ana tona riri.
6 And Elihu son of Barachel the Buzite answers and says: “I [am] young in days, and you [are] aged; Therefore I have feared, And am afraid of showing you my opinion.
Na ka oho a Erihu tama a Parakere Puti, ka mea, He taitamariki ahau, ko koutou ia he koroheke rawa; koia ahau i hopohopo ai, i wehi ai ki te whakaatu i toku whakaaro ki a koutou.
7 I said, Days speak, And a multitude of years teach wisdom.
I mea ahau, Ma nga ra te korero, ma nga tau kua maha e whakaatu te whakaaro nui.
8 Surely a spirit is in man, And the breath of the Mighty One Causes them to understand.
Otiia he wairua ano to te tangata, na te manawa ano o te Kaha Rawa ratou i whai mahara ai.
9 The multitude are not wise, Nor do the aged understand judgment.
Ko nga tangata nunui, kahore o ratou whakaaro nui, ko nga kaumatua, kahore e matau ki te whakawa.
10 Therefore I have said: Listen to me, I show my opinion—even I.
Koia ahau i mea ai, Whakarongo ki ahau; ka whakakite hoki ahau i toku whakaaro.
11 Behold, I have waited for your words, I give ear to your reasons, Until you search out sayings.
Nana, i tatari ahau ki a koutou kupu; i whai taringa atu ki o koutou whakaaro mohio i a koutou e rapu kupu ana.
12 And to you I attend, And behold, there is no reasoner for Job, [Or] answerer of his sayings among you.
Nana, mahara tonu atu ahau ki a koutou, a kihai tetahi o koutou i whakaatu i te he o Hopa, i whakahoki kupu ranei ki ana korero.
13 Lest you say, We have found wisdom, God thrusts him away, not man.
Kei mea koutou, Kua kitea e matou te mohio, na te Atua ia i turaki, ehara i te tangata.
14 And he has not set words in array for me, And I do not answer him with your sayings.
Na kihai ana kupu i anga mai ki ahau; e kore ano tana e utua e ahau ki a koutou kupu.
15 (They have broken down, They have not answered again, They removed words from themselves.
Porahurahu kau ana ratou, kore ake a ratou kupu whakahoki: mutu ake a ratou korero.
16 And I have waited, but they do not speak, For they have stood still, They have not answered anymore.)
Kia tatari ahau, no te mea kahore ratou e korero, no te mea e tu kau ana ratou, kahore e whakahoki atu?
17 I answer, even I—my share, I show my opinion—even I.
Me korero atu hoki e ahau aku kupu, maku ano e whakaatu toku whakaaro.
18 For I have been full of words, The spirit of my breast has distressed me,
Ki tonu hoki ahau i te korero; e akiakina ana ahau e te wairua i roto i ahau.
19 Behold, my breast [is] as wine not opened, It is broken up like new bottles.
Nana, ko toku kopu rite tonu ki te waina kahore nei ona putanga; ki te ipu hou e tata ana ia te pakaru.
20 I speak, and there is refreshment to me, I open my lips and answer.
Me korero ahau, kia ta ai toku manawa; ka puaki toku mangai, ka whakahoki kupu ahau.
21 Please do not let me accept the face of any, Nor give flattering titles to man,
Na kaua ahau e whakapai ki te kanohi tangata; e kore hoki ahau e hoatu ingoa whakapaipai ki te tangata.
22 For I have not known to give flattering titles, My Maker takes me away in a little.”
Kahore hoki ahau e mohio ki te whakapati; penei kua riro wawe ahau i toku Kaihanga.
