< Ioba 2 >
1 A I kekahi la hoi i hele na keiki a ke Akua e hoike ia lakou iho imua o Iehova, o Satana hoi kekahi i hele mai iwaena o lakou e hoike ia ia iho imua o Iehova.
Again, on the day when God’s sons came to present themselves before the LORD, Satan came also amongst them to present himself before the LORD.
2 Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Satana, Nohea oe i hele mai nei? Olelo aku la o Satana ia Iehova, i aku la, Mai ka auwana ana ma ka honua, a mai ka hele ana io ia nei malaila.
The LORD said to Satan, “Where have you come from?” Satan answered the LORD, and said, “From going back and forth in the earth, and from walking up and down in it.”
3 Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Satana, Ua noonoo pono anei oe i ka'u kauwa ia Ioba, aohe ona like ma ka honua, he kanaka pono a me ka pololei, ua makau i ke Akua, a ua hookaaokoa i ka hewa? A i keia wa ke hoopaa iho nei ma kona pono, aka, ua koi mai oe ia'u e ku e ia ia, e pepehi hala ole ia ia.
The LORD said to Satan, “Have you considered my servant Job? For there is no one like him in the earth, a blameless and an upright man, one who fears God, and turns away from evil. He still maintains his integrity, although you incited me against him, to ruin him without cause.”
4 A olelo aku ia o Satana ia Iehova, i aka ia, He ili no ka ili, o ka mea a pau a ke kanaka, oia kana e haawi aku ai no kona ola.
Satan answered the LORD, and said, “Skin for skin. Yes, all that a man has he will give for his life.
5 Aka, e kikoo aku oe i kou lima ano, a e hoopa aku i kona iwi a me kona io, a e hoino no oia ia oe imua o kou maka.
But stretch out your hand now, and touch his bone and his flesh, and he will renounce you to your face.”
6 Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Satana, Aia no ia iloko o kou lima; e malama no nae oe i kona ola.
The LORD said to Satan, “Behold, he is in your hand. Only spare his life.”
7 A hele aku la o Satana mai ke alo aku o Iehova, a hahau aku la oia ia Ioba i na mai hehee ehaeha, mai ka poho o kona wawae a kona piko poo.
So Satan went out from the presence of the LORD, and struck Job with painful sores from the sole of his foot to his head.
8 A lawe aku la ia i ka apana ipu lepo, a wauwau ia ia iho me ia; a noho iho la ia iloko o ka Iehuahi.
He took for himself a potsherd to scrape himself with, and he sat amongst the ashes.
9 Alaila olelo mai la kana wahine ia ia, Ke hoopaa nei anei oe ano ma kou pono? E hoino aku i ke Akua a make iho.
Then his wife said to him, “Do you still maintain your integrity? Renounce God, and die.”
10 Aka, i aku la oia ia ia, Ke olelo mai nei oe e like me ka olelo a kekahi o na wahine naaupo. Eia, e loaa anei ia kakou ka maikai mai ke Akua mai, aole anei e loaa ia kakou ka ino kekahi? Ma keia mea a pao, aole o Ioba i hewa me kona mau lehelehe.
But he said to her, “You speak as one of the foolish women would speak. What? Shall we receive good at the hand of God, and shall we not receive evil?” In all this Job didn’t sin with his lips.
11 A Iohe na makamaka ekolu o Ioba i keia ino i hiki mai maluna ona, hele mai kela mea keia mea mai kona wahi mai; o Elipaza no Temana, a o Biledada no Suha, a o Zopara no Naama: no ka mea, ua kuka pu lakou e halawai e uwe pu me ia a e hooluolu ia ia.
Now when Job’s three friends heard of all this evil that had come on him, they each came from his own place: Eliphaz the Temanite, Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite; and they made an appointment together to come to sympathise with him and to comfort him.
12 A nana ao la ko lakou mau maka iluna mai kahi mamao aku, aole hikou i ike ia ia, a hookiekie ae la lakou i ko lakou leo iluna, a auwe iho la; a haehae lakou o kela mea keia mea i kona aahu, a lulu i ka lepo maluna o ko lakou poo ma ka lani.
When they lifted up their eyes from a distance, and didn’t recognise him, they raised their voices, and wept; and they each tore his robe, and sprinkled dust on their heads towards the sky.
13 A noho pu iho lakou me ia ma ka lepo i na la ehiku a me na po ehiko, aole hoi i olelo iki aku kekahi o lakou ia ia: no ka mea, ike no lakou, ua nui loa kona ehaeha.
So they sat down with him on the ground seven days and seven nights, and no one spoke a word to him, for they saw that his grief was very great.
