Job 32
1 And these three men cease from answering Job, for he [is] righteous in his own eyes,
Naʻe tuku ai ʻe he kau tangata ʻe toko tolu ni ʻenau lea atu kia Siope, koeʻuhi naʻe māʻoniʻoni ia ʻi hono mata ʻoʻona.
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;
Pea naʻe tupu ʻae ʻita ʻa Elihu ko e foha ʻo Palakela ko e tangata Pusa, ʻi he kāinga ʻo Lame: naʻe tupu ʻene ʻita kia Siope, koeʻuhi naʻa ne fakatonuhiaʻi ia ʻe ia kae ʻikai ko e ʻOtua.
3 and his anger has burned against his three friends, because that they have not found an answer, and condemn Job.
Naʻe ʻita foki ia ki hono kāinga ʻe toko tolu, koeʻuhi naʻe ʻikai te nau faʻa talia ʻa Siope, ka kuo nau talatalaakiʻi ia.
4 And Elihu has waited earnestly beside Job with words, for they are older than he in days.
Ka naʻe tatali ʻa Elihu kaeʻoua ke ʻosi ʻae lea ʻa Siope, koeʻuhi naʻa nau motuʻa ʻiate ia.
5 And Elihu sees that there is no answer in the mouth of the three men, and his anger burns.
Pea ʻi he vakai ʻa Elihu kuo ʻikai ha tali ʻi he ngutu ʻoe kau tangata ʻe toko tolu ni, naʻe tupu ʻene ʻita.
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.
Pea naʻe lea ʻa Elihu ko e foha ʻo Palakela ko e tangata Pusa, ʻo ne pehē, “ʻOku ou siʻi au, kae motuʻa ʻakimoutolu; ko ia ne u manavahē ai, ʻo taʻefiefakahā ʻa hoku loto.
7 I said, Days speak, And a multitude of years teach wisdom.
Ne u pehē, ‘ʻE lea ʻae ngaahi ʻaho, pea ʻe akonekina ke poto ʻe he ngaahi taʻu lahi.’
8 Surely a spirit is in man, And the breath of the Mighty One Causes them to understand.
Ka ʻoku ai ʻae laumālie ʻi he tangata, pea ʻoku foaki kiate ia ʻae ʻilo lahi ʻe he fakamānava ʻae Māfimafi.
9 The multitude are not wise, Nor do the aged understand judgment.
ʻOku ʻikai poto ʻae houʻeiki kotoa pē, pea ʻoku ʻikai ʻilo ʻe he mātuʻa ʻae fakamaau.
10 Therefore I have said: Listen to me, I show my opinion—even I.
Ko ia ne u pehē ai, ‘Fanongo mai kiate au; te u fakahā foki hoku loto.’
11 Behold, I have waited for your words, I give ear to your reasons, Until you search out sayings.
“Vakai, ne u tatali ki hoʻomou ngaahi lea; naʻaku fakafanongo ki hoʻomou ngaahi fakamatala, ʻi he lolotonga homou hakule ki haʻamou lea.
12 And to you I attend, And behold, there is no reasoner for Job, [Or] answerer of his sayings among you.
ʻIo, ne u tokangaʻi ʻakimoutolu, pea vakai, kuo ʻikai ha taha ʻiate kimoutolu kuo ne lavaʻi ʻa Siope, pe tali ʻene ngaahi lea:
13 Lest you say, We have found wisdom, God thrusts him away, not man.
Telia naʻa mou pehē, ‘Kuo mau ʻiloʻi ʻae poto: ʻoku lī hifo ia ʻe he ʻOtua, kae ʻikai ko e tangata.’
14 And he has not set words in array for me, And I do not answer him with your sayings.
Pea ko eni, naʻe ʻikai te ne lea fakatotonu mai kiate au: pea ʻe ʻikai te u tali ʻaki ia ʻa hoʻomou ngaahi lea.
15 (They have broken down, They have not answered again, They removed words from themselves.
“Naʻe ofo ʻakinautolu, ʻo ʻikai te nau toe lea: pea fakalongo pe.
16 And I have waited, but they do not speak, For they have stood still, They have not answered anymore.)
Pea kuo u tatali, (he naʻe ʻikai te nau lea, kae tutuʻu pe, ʻo ʻikai toe lea: )
17 I answer, even I—my share, I show my opinion—even I.
Pea ne u pehē, ‘Te u tali foki ʻeau ʻi hoku lakanga, te u fakahā foki hoku loto.’
18 For I have been full of words, The spirit of my breast has distressed me,
He ʻoku ou pito ʻi he ngaahi lea, ʻoku fakangaueʻi au ʻe hoku laumālie.
19 Behold, my breast [is] as wine not opened, It is broken up like new bottles.
Vakai, ʻoku tatau hoku loto mo e uaine taʻehanoava; ʻo hangē ko e ngaahi hina ʻoe uaine foʻou, ʻoku toe siʻi pea mahaehae.
20 I speak, and there is refreshment to me, I open my lips and answer.
Te u lea kau fiemālie: te u faʻai hoku loungutu ʻo tali.
21 Please do not let me accept the face of any, Nor give flattering titles to man,
ʻOfa ke ʻoua naʻaku filifilimānako ki ha taha, pea ʻoua naʻaku ʻai ʻae hingoa fakalapu ki ha tangata.
22 For I have not known to give flattering titles, My Maker takes me away in a little.”
He ʻoku ʻikai te u ʻilo ke ʻai ʻae hingoa lapu; telia naʻa ʻave fakavave ai au ʻe hoku Tupuʻanga.
