Ioba 22
1 A LAILA olelo aku o Elipaza, i aku la,
Pea naʻe toki tali ʻe Elifasi mei Timani, ʻo ne pehē,
2 E hiki anei i ke kanaka, ke hoopomaikai i ke Akua, E like me ka mea naauao, e hoopomaikai ia ia iho?
‘ʻE faʻa ʻaonga ʻae tangata ki he ʻOtua,’ ʻo hangē ʻoku ʻaonga ʻaia ʻoku poto kiate ia pe?
3 He mea oluolu anei ke pono oe i ka Mea mana? A e waiwai anei oia ke hoohemolele oe i kou mau aoao?
He ʻoku ʻaonga ki he Māfimafi ʻa hoʻo māʻoniʻoni? Pe ʻaonga ki ai ʻa hoʻo fakahaohaoa ho ngaahi ʻaluʻanga?
4 No ka makau ia oe, e hoopaapaa mai anei ia ia oe? E hele mai anei ia me oe ma ka hooponopono ana?
He te ne tautea koe ko ʻene manavahē kiate koe? Te ne fai koā mo koe ʻae fakamaau?
5 Aole anei he nui kou hewa? A ua hope ole kou mau hala?
ʻIkai ʻoku lahi ʻaupito hoʻo angahala? Pea taʻengata mo hoʻo ngaahi hia?
6 No ka mea, ua hoopanai wale oe i kou hoahanau, A ua lawe oe i na aahu o ka poe kapa ole.
He kuo ke maʻu taʻetotonu ʻae totongi mei ho kāinga, pea kuo ke faʻao mei he telefua honau kofu.
7 Aole oe i haawi i ka wai i ka mea nawaliwali, A ua ana oe i ka berena i ka mea pololi.
Naʻe ʻikai te ke fakainua ʻae vaivai ʻaki ʻae vai, pea kuo ke taʻofi ʻae mā mei he fiekaia.
8 Aka, o ke kanaka ikaika, nona ka honua; A noho iho la ka mea koikoi ilaila.
Ka naʻe ʻoe tangata mālohi ʻae fonua; pea nofo ai ʻae tangata ongoongolelei.
9 Ua hoihoi nele aku oe i na wahinekanemake, A ua paopaoia na lima o na mea makua ole.
Kuo ke fekau atu taʻehameʻa ʻae kau fefine kuo mate honau husepāniti, pea kuo fesiʻi ʻae nima ʻoe kau tamai mate.
10 Nolaila ua puni oe i na pahele, A o ka makau wale ke hooweliweli mai nei ia oe;
Ko ia kuo kāpui ai koe ʻe he ngaahi tauhele, pea ke puputuʻu ʻi he manavahē kuo fakafokifā;
11 A o ka pouli paha au i ike ole ai; A he nui loa ka wai e halana ana maluna ou.
Pea ko e fakapoʻuli ke ʻoua naʻa ke mamata, pea ʻufiʻufi koe ʻe he ngaahi vai lahi.
12 Aole anei ke Akua ma ka lani kiekie? Aia hoi, ke poo o na hoku, ua kiekie lakou.
“ʻIkai ʻoku ʻi he langi ʻi ʻolunga ʻae ʻOtua? Pea ke vakai ki hono māʻolunga faufau ʻoe ngaahi fetuʻu lahi!
13 A i mai la oe, Pehea la ke Akua e ike ai? E hiki anei ia ke hooponopono mawaena mai o ke ao pouli?
Ka ke pehē ʻe koe, ‘ʻOku ʻilo fēfē ʻe he ʻOtua? Pea ʻe faʻa fakamaau ʻe ia ʻi he loto ʻao fakapoʻuli?
14 O na ao naulu ka uhi nona, i ike ole ai ia, A hele no ia ma ka poai o ka lani.
Ko e ʻufiʻufi kiate ia ʻae ngaahi ʻao matolu, ʻaia ʻoku ʻikai te ne mamata ai; pea ʻoku hāʻele pe ia ʻi he hāʻeleʻanga ʻi he langi.’
15 Ua noonoo pono anei oe i ka aoao kahiko, Kahi a ka poe hewa i hele ai?
He kuo ke fakaʻilongaʻi ʻe koe ʻae hala motuʻa, naʻe fou ai ʻae kakai angahala?
16 Ka poe i noopauia mamua o ka manawa, Ua nininiia ke kaiakahinalii maluna o ko lakou kahua;
ʻAkinautolu naʻe tuʻusi hifo ʻi he teʻeki hoko honau kuonga, ʻakinautolu naʻe lōmaki honau tuʻunga ʻaki ʻae vai:
17 Ka poe i olelo aku i ke Akua, E hele mai o makou aku; A heaha ka ka Mea mana e hana mai ai no lakou?
ʻAkinautolu naʻe pehē ki he ʻOtua, ‘ʻAlu ʻiate kimautolu:’ pea, ‘Ko e hā ʻe faʻa fai ʻe he Māfimafi maʻanautolu?’
18 Ua hoopiha no nae ia i ko lakou mau hale i ka waiwai; Aka. o ka manao o ka poe hewa ua mamao loa aku ia ia'u.
Ka naʻa ne fakapito ʻaki ʻae ngaahi meʻa lelei honau ngaahi fale: ka ʻoku mamaʻo ʻiate au ʻae fakakaukau ʻoe angahala.
19 Ua ike no ka poe pono ia, a olioli, A akaaka ka poe hala ole ia lakou.
ʻOku mamata ki ai ʻae māʻoniʻoni, pea fiefia: pea ʻoku kata manuki kiate kinautolu ʻe he taʻeangahala.
20 Ina paha ua lukuia ko makou poe enemi, A ua hoopauia ka waiwai nui o lakou i ke ahi.
‘Koeʻuhi naʻe ʻikai tuʻusi ʻetau koloa, ka ko honau toe ʻoku fakaʻauha ʻe he afi.’
21 E hookuikahi ae me ia ano, a e pomaikai; Pela no e hiki mai ai ka pomaikai ia oe.
“Fai ke ke ʻiloʻi ia, pea ke melino: pea ko ia ʻe hoko ai ʻae lelei kiate koe.
22 Ke koi aku nei au ia oe, E lawe oe i ke kanawai mai kona waha mai, A e waiho oe i kana mau olelo iloko o kou naau.
ʻOku ou kole kiate koe, ke ke maʻu ʻae fono mei hono ngutu, pea ke faʻo ki ho loto ʻa ʻene ngaahi folofola.
23 Ina e hoi hou oe i ka Mea mana, e kukuluia oe, E hoomamao loa aku oe i ka hewa mai kou mau halelewa aku.
Kapau te ke tafoki ki he Māfimafi, ʻe langa hake koe, pea te ke tukuange ke mamaʻo ʻae hia mei ho ngaahi fale.
24 A e hoolei aku oe i kou houlunlu ana i ke gula i ka lepo, A i ke gula Opira hoi i na pohaku o na kahawai
Pea te ke toki fokotuʻu ʻae koloa ʻo hangē ko e efu, mo e koula ʻo Ofeli ʻo hangē ko e ngaahi maka teka ʻoe tafeʻanga vai.
25 A o ka Mea mana kou gula, A me ke kala o na waiwai nou.
ʻIo, ʻe hoko ʻae Māfimafi ko ho fakaū, pea te ke maʻu ʻo lahi ʻae siliva.
26 No ka mea, alaila e hauoli oe i ka Mea mana, A e hoala ae i kou maka i ke Akua.
He te ke toki fiefia ʻi he Māfimafi, pea hanga hake ho mata ki he ʻOtua.
27 E pule aku no oe ia ia, a e hoolohe mai ia ia oe, A e hooko aku oe i na mea au i hoohiki ai.
Te ke fai haʻo lotu kiate ia, pea te ne ongoʻi koe, pea te ke fai hoʻo ngaahi fuakava.
28 A e noonoo oe i kahi mea, a e hoopaaia oia nou; A e alohi mai ka malamalama maluna o kou mau ala.
Te ke tuʻutuʻuni foki ha meʻa, pea ʻe fakamoʻoni ia kiate koe: pea ʻe ulo ʻae maama ki ho ngaahi hala.
29 A e hoohaahaaia lakou, alaila e olelo oe, He kiekie; A e hoola mai no ia i ka mea i kulou na maka.
ʻOka ai ha tōkilalo, te ke toki pehē, ‘ʻOku ai ʻae hakeakiʻi;’ pea ʻe fakamoʻui ʻe ia ʻae angavaivai.
30 E hoopakele no ia i ka mea lawe hala; A e hoopakeleia oia ma ka maemae o kou mau lima.
ʻE fakahaofi ʻe ia ʻae fonua motu ʻoe taʻeangahala: pea ʻoku hao ia ʻi he māʻoniʻoni ʻo ho nima.”
