Job 16
1 Forsothe Joob answeride, and seide, Y `herde ofte siche thingis;
Pea naʻe toki tali ʻe Siope, ʻo ne pehē,
2 alle ye ben heuy coumfortouris.
Kuo lahi ʻae meʻa pehē kuo u fanongo ai: ko e kau fakafiemālie fakamamahi ʻakimoutolu kotoa pē.
3 Whether wordis ful of wynd schulen haue an ende? ether ony thing is diseseful to thee, if thou spekist?
ʻE ngata afe ʻae launoa? Pe ko e hā ʻoku ne tokoniʻi koe ke ke tali?
4 Also Y myyte speke thingis lijk to you, and `Y wolde, that youre soule were for my soule; and Y wolde coumfort you by wordis, and Y wolde moue myn heed on you;
Te u faʻa lea foki ʻeau ʻo hangē pe ko kimoutolu: ka ne fetongi ʻaki homou laumālie ʻa hoku laumālie, te u faʻa fokotuʻu lea kiate kimoutolu, pea te u kalokalo hoku ʻulu kiate kimoutolu.
5 Y wolde make you stronge bi my mouth, and Y wolde moue lippis as sparynge you.
Ka te u tokoniʻi ʻakimoutolu ʻaki hoku ngutu, pea ko e ueʻi ʻo hoku loungutu ʻe fakafiemālieʻi ʻakimoutolu.
6 But what schal Y do? If Y speke, my sorewe restith not; and if Y am stille, it goith not awei fro me.
“Neongo ʻeku lea, ʻoku ʻikai fakasiʻisiʻi ʻeku mamahi: pea kapau te u taʻofi, ko e hā ʻeku fiemālie ai?
7 But now my sorewe hath oppressid me, and alle my lymes ben dryuun in to nouyt.
Ka ko eni, kuo ne fakakikinaʻi au: kuo ke fakaʻauha ʻa hoku kāinga kotoa pē.
8 My ryuelyngis seien witnessyng ayens me, and a fals spekere is reisid ayens my face, and ayenseith me.
Kuo ke ʻufiʻufi ʻaki au ʻae feʻufeʻu, ko e fakamoʻoni ia: pea ʻoku ha hake hoku tutue ʻo valoki ki hoku mata.
9 He gaderide togidere his woodnesse in me, and he manaasside me, and gnastide ayens me with his teeth; myn enemye bihelde me with ferdful iyen.
ʻOku ne haehae au ʻi hono houhau, ʻaia ʻoku fehiʻa kiate au ʻoku ne fengaiʻitaki hono nifo kiate au, ʻoku matalili ʻa hoku fili kiate au.
10 Thei openyden her mouthis on me, and thei seiden schenschip, and smytiden my cheke; and thei ben fillid with my peynes.
Kuo nau fakamanga honau ngutu kiate au; kuo taaʻi manuki au ʻi hoku kouʻahe; kuo nau fakataha ʻakinautolu kiate au.
11 God hath closid me togidere at the wickid, and hath youe me to the hondis of wickid men.
Kuo tukuange au ʻe he ʻOtua ki he kakai angahala, pea kuo ne lī au ki he nima ʻoe kakai fai kovi.
12 Y thilke riche man and famouse sum tyme, am al to brokun sudeynli; `he helde my nol; he hath broke me, and hath set me as in to a signe.
Ne u fiemālie, ka kuo ne maumauʻi au: kuo ne kuku foki hoku kia, ʻo laiki au, ʻo fokotuʻu au ko hono fanaʻanga.
13 He hath cumpasside me with hise speris, he woundide togidere my leendis; he sparide not, and schedde out myn entrails in to the erthe.
ʻOku tuʻu takatakai kiate au ʻene kau tangata fana, ʻoku ne fahiua hoku konga loto, ʻo ʻikai tuku; ʻoku ne lilingi hoku ʻahu ki he kelekele.
14 He beet me with wounde on wounde; he as a giaunt felde in on me.
ʻOku ne maumauʻi au ʻaki ʻae tā ki he tā, ʻoku ne ʻohofia au ʻo hangē pe ha fuʻu tangata lahi.
15 Y sewide togidere a sak on my skyn; and Y hilide my fleisch with aische.
Kuo u tuitui ʻae tauangaʻa ki hoku kili, ʻo fakaʻuliʻi hoku nifo ʻi he efu.
16 My face bolnyde of wepynge, and myn iyeliddis wexiden derke.
ʻOku kovi hoku mata ʻi he tangi, pea ʻoku ʻi hoku laumata ʻae malumalu ʻoe mate;
17 Y suffride these thingis with out wickidnesse of myn hond, `that is, werk, whanne Y hadde cleene preieris to God.
Ka ʻoku ʻikai ʻi ha taʻetotonu kuo ʻi hoku nima: pea ʻoku māʻoniʻoni foki ʻeku lotu.
18 Erthe, hile thou not my blood, and my cry fynde not in thee a place of hidyng.
“ʻE kelekele, ʻoua naʻa ke ʻuʻufi hoku toto, pea ʻoua naʻa hao ki ha potu ʻa ʻeku tangi.
19 `For, lo! my witnesse is in heuene; and the knowere of my consience is in hiye places.
Ko eni foki, vakai, ʻoku ʻi he langi hoku fakamoʻoni, pea ko ia ʻoku ne ʻiloʻi au ʻoku ʻi ʻolunga.
20 A! my frendis, ful of wordis, myn iye droppith to God.
ʻOku manukiʻi au ʻe hoku ngaahi kāinga: ka ʻoku lilingi ʻae loʻimata ʻa hoku mata ki he ʻOtua.
21 And `Y wolde, that a man were demed so with God, as the sone of man is demed with his felowe.
Taumaiā ke faʻa alea ʻae tangata mo e ʻOtua, ʻo hangē ko e tangata mo hono kaungāʻapi!
22 `For lo! schorte yeeris passen, and Y go a path, bi which Y schal not turne ayen.
ʻOka hokosia ʻae ngaahi taʻu siʻi, te u toki ʻalu ʻi he hala ʻe ʻikai te u foki mei ai.
