Job 38
1 Forsothe the Lord answeride fro the whirlewynd to Joob,
Pea naʻe toki folofola ʻa Sihova kia Siope mei he ʻahiohio, ʻo pehē,
2 and seide, Who is this man, wlappynge sentences with vnwise wordis?
“Ko hai eni ʻoku ne fakapoʻuliʻi ʻae fakakaukau ʻaki ʻae ngaahi lea ʻoe taʻeʻilo?
3 Girde thou as a man thi leendis; Y schal axe thee, and answere thou to me.
Ko eni, ke ke nonoʻo ho noʻotangavala ʻo ngali mo e tangata; he te u ʻeke kiate koe, pea ke fakamatala mai kiate au.
4 Where were thou, whanne Y settide the foundementis of erthe? schewe thou to me, if thou hast vndurstondyng.
“Naʻa ke ʻi fē koe ʻi heʻeku ʻai ʻae ngaahi tuʻunga ʻo māmani? Fakahā mai, kapau ʻoku ʻiate koe ʻae faʻa ʻilo.
5 Who settide mesures therof, if thou knowist? ethir who stretchide forth a lyne theronne?
Ko hai naʻa ne ai hono ngaahi fuofua ʻo ia, ʻo kapau ʻoku ke ʻilo? Pe ko hai naʻa ne falō ʻae afo ki ai?
6 On what thing ben the foundementis therof maad fast? ether who sente doun the corner stoon therof,
ʻOku fakamaʻu ki he hā ʻa hono ngaahi tuʻunga ʻo ia? Pe ko hai naʻa ne ʻai ʻa hono maka tuliki ʻo ia;
7 whanne the morew sterris herieden me togidere, and alle the sones of God sungun ioyfuli?
ʻAia naʻe hiva fiefia fakataha ai ʻae ngaahi fetuʻu ʻoe pongipongi, pea kalanga fakafiefia ai ʻae ngaahi foha kotoa pē ʻoe ʻOtua?
8 Who closide togidere the see with doris, whanne it brak out comynge forth as of the wombe?
“Pe ko hai naʻa ne tāpuni ʻae tahi ʻaki ʻae ngaahi matapā, ʻi heʻene hā mai, ʻo hangē ko ʻene puna mei he manāva?
9 Whanne Y settide a cloude the hilyng therof, and Y wlappide it with derknesse, as with clothis of yong childhed.
ʻI heʻeku ngaohi ʻae ʻao ko e kofu ʻo ia, pea ko e fakapoʻuli matolu ko hono noʻo ʻoʻona.
10 Y cumpasside it with my termes, and Y settide a barre, and doris;
ʻO keli hake ʻae potu naʻaku tuʻutuʻuni ki ai, ʻo ʻai ki ai ʻae ngaahi pou mo e matapā.
11 and Y seide, `Til hidur thou schalt come, and thou schalt not go forth ferthere; and here thou schalt breke togidere thi bolnynge wawis.
Pea u pehē, ‘Te ke haʻu ki heni, pea ngata ai: pea ʻe lolomi ʻi heni hoʻo ngaahi peau laukau?’
12 Whethir aftir thi birthe thou comaundist to the bigynnyng of dai, and schewidist to the morewtid his place?
“Naʻa ke fekau ki he pongipongi talu hoʻo ngaahi ʻaho; pea pule ki he hengihengi ʻoe ʻaho ke ne ʻilo hono potu:
13 Whethir thou heldist schakynge togidere the laste partis of erthe, and schakedist awei wickid men therfro?
Koeʻuhi ke ne puke ki he ngaahi ngataʻanga ʻoe fonua, koeʻuhi ke tupeʻi mei ai ʻae kakai angahala.
14 A seeling schal be restorid as cley, and it schal stonde as a cloth.
ʻOku liliu ia ʻo hangē ko e ʻumea ki he fakaʻilonga; pea ʻoku nau tuʻu ʻo hangē ko e kofu.
15 The liyt of wickid men schal be takun awey fro hem, and an hiy arm schal be brokun.
Ka ʻoku taʻofi mei he kau angahala ʻenau maama, pea ʻe fesiʻi ʻae nima māʻolunga.
16 Whethir thou entridist in to the depthe of the see, and walkidist in the laste partis of the occian?
“Naʻa ke hū koe ki he ngaahi matavai ʻoe tahi? Pe naʻa ke ʻeveʻeva ke kumi ʻae loloto?
17 Whether the yatis of deeth ben openyd to thee, and `siest thou the derk doris?
Naʻe toʻo ʻae ngaahi matapā ʻoe mate kiate koe? Pe naʻa ke mamata ʻe koe ki he ngaahi matapā ʻoe malumalu ʻoe mate?
18 Whethir thou hast biholde the brede of erthe? Schewe thou to me, if thou knowist alle thingis,
Naʻa ke ʻiloʻi ʻae māukupu ʻoe fonua? Fakahā ʻo kapau ʻoku ke ʻilo ia kotoa pē.
19 in what weie the liyt dwellith, and which is the place of derknesse;
“Ko e fē ʻae hala ʻoku nofo ai ʻae maama? Pea ko e poʻuli, komaʻa ia ʻae potu ʻoʻona.
20 that thou lede ech thing to hise termes, and thou vndurstonde the weies of his hows.
Koeʻuhi ke ke ʻave ia ki hono ngataʻanga ʻoʻona, pea koeʻuhi ke ke ʻilo ʻae ngaahi hala ki he fale ʻo ia?
21 Wistist thou thanne, that thou schuldist be borun, and knew thou the noumbre of thi daies?
Kuo ke ʻilo ia, he naʻe fanauʻi koe ʻi he kuonga ko ia? Pe koeʻuhi kuo lahi hono lau ʻo ho ngaahi ʻaho?
22 Whethir thou entridist in to the tresours of snow, ether biheldist thou the tresours of hail?
Naʻa ke hū koe ki he ngaahi faʻoakianga ʻoe ʻuha hinehina? Pe naʻa ke mamata koe ki he ngaahi faʻoakiʻanga ʻoe ʻuha maka,
23 whiche thingis Y made redy in to the tyme of an enemy, in to the dai of fiytyng and of batel.
ʻAia kuo u tuku ki he kuonga ʻoe fakamamahi, ki he ʻaho ʻoe fekeʻikeʻi mo e tau?
24 Bi what weie is the liyt spred abrood, heete is departid on erthe?
ʻOku vahevahe fēfeeʻi ʻae maama, ʻaia ʻoku ne tufaki ke mamaʻo ʻae matangi hahake ʻi he fonua?
25 Who yaf cours to the strongeste reyn,
Ko hai kuo ne vaheʻi ʻae tafeʻanga vai ki he mahuohua ʻoe ngaahi vai, pe ko e hala ki he ʻuhila ʻoe mana;
26 and weie of the thundur sownynge? That it schulde reyne on the erthe with out man in desert, where noon of deedli men dwellith?
Koeʻuhi ke pule ke ʻuha ki he fonua, ʻaia ʻoku ʻikai ʻi ai ha tangata; ki he toafa, ʻaia ʻoku ʻikai ʻi ai ha tangata;
27 That it schulde fille a lond with out weie and desolat, and schulde brynge forth greene eerbis?
Ke fakafiemālie ʻae kelekele lala mo liʻaki; ke fakatupu ʻae moto ʻoe ʻakau vaivai?
28 Who is fadir of reyn, ether who gendride the dropis of deew?
Ko hai ʻae tamai ʻae ʻuha? Pe ko hai kuo ne fakatupu ʻae ngaahi tulutā ʻoe hahau?
29 Of whos wombe yede out iys, and who gendride frost fro heuene?
Naʻe haʻu ʻae vai fefeka mei he manāva ʻo hai? Pea ko hai naʻa ne fakatupu ʻae falositi hinehina ʻoe langi?
30 Watris ben maad hard in the licnesse of stoon, and the ouer part of occian is streyned togidere.
Kuo fufū ʻae ngaahi vai ʻo hangē ko e maka, pea kuo fakafefeka ʻae funga ʻoe loloto.
31 Whether thou schalt mowe ioyne togidere schynynge sterris Pliades, ethir thou schalt mowe distrie the cumpas of Arturis?
“ʻOku ke faʻa puleʻi ʻe koe ʻae ngaahi mālohi melie ʻo Peliatisi, pe vete ʻae ngaahi haʻi ʻo Olioni?
32 Whether thou bryngist forth Lucifer, `that is, dai sterre, in his tyme, and makist euene sterre to rise on the sones of erthe?
ʻOku ke faʻa ʻomi ʻe koe ʻa Masaloti ʻi hono kuonga? Pe te ke faʻa fakahinohino ʻa ʻAakitulio mo hono ngaahi foha?
33 Whether thou knowist the ordre of heuene, and schalt sette the resoun therof in erthe?
ʻOku ke ʻiloʻi ʻae ngaahi tuʻutuʻuni ʻoe langi? ʻOku ke faʻa fokotuʻu ʻene pule ki he fonua?
34 Whethir thou schalt reise thi vois in to a cloude, and the fersnesse of watris schal hile thee?
“ʻOku ke faʻa hiki hake ʻe koe ho leʻo ki he ngaahi ʻao, koeʻuhi ke ʻufiʻufi ʻaki koe ʻae ngaahi vai lahi?
35 Whethir thou schalt sende leitis, and tho schulen go, and tho schulen turne ayen, and schulen seie to thee, We ben present?
ʻOku ke faʻa fekau atu ʻae ngaahi ʻuhila, koeʻuhi ke nau ʻalu, ʻonau pehē kiate koe, ‘Ko kimautolu eni?’
36 Who puttide wisdoom in the entrailis of man, ethir who yaf vndurstondyng to the cok?
Ko hai kuo ne ʻai ʻae poto ki he ngaahi potu ʻi loto? Pe ko hai kuo ne foaki ʻae faʻa ʻilo ki he loto?
37 Who schal telle out the resoun of heuenes, and who schal make acordyng of heuene to sleep?
Ko hai ʻoku faʻa lau ʻae ngaahi ʻao ʻi he poto? Pe ko hai te ne faʻa taʻofi ʻae ngaahi hina ʻoe langi?
38 Whanne dust was foundid in the erthe, and clottis weren ioyned togidere?
ʻOka tupu ʻo fefeka ʻae efu, pea piki fakataha ʻae tuʻutanga kelekele?
39 Whether thou schalt take prey to the lionesse, and schalt fille the soulis of hir whelpis,
“He te ke tuli ʻae meʻakai maʻae laione? Pe fakamākona ʻae fiekaia ʻoe fanga laione mui,
40 whanne tho liggen in caues, and aspien in dennes?
ʻOka nau ka tokoto ʻi honau ngaahi ʻana, pea nofo pe ʻo lama ʻi he potu lilo?
41 Who makith redi for the crowe his mete, whanne hise briddis crien to God, and wandren aboute, for tho han not meetis?
Ko hai ʻoku ne tokonaki ʻae meʻakai ki he leveni, ʻoka tangi hono fānganga ki he ʻOtua, ʻi heʻenau hē ko e masiva kai?
