Ioba 3
1 MAHOPE iho o keia, pane ae la ko Ioba waha, a hoino aku la ia i kona la.
After this Job opened his mouth, and cursed his day,
2 Olelo mai la o Ioba, i mai la,
And he said:
3 E poho wale iho ka la a'u i hanau ai, A me ka po i oleloia, ua hapaiia he keikikane.
Let the day perish wherein I was born, and the night in which it was said: A man child is conceived.
4 E lilo ua la la i pouli; Mai manao ke Akua ia mai luna mai, Aole hoi e alohi mai ka malamalama maluna ona.
Let that day be turned into darkness, let not God regard it from above, and let not the light shine upon it.
5 E haukae ka pouli a me ka malu make ia la; E kau ka naulu maluna ona; E hooweliweli na wela o ka la ia ia.
Let darkness, and the shadow of death cover it, let a mist overspread it, and let it be wrapped up in bitterness.
6 A o ua po la, e lawe aku ka pouli ia ia; Aole e hui pu ia oia me na la o ka makahiki; Mai hookomoia oia iloko o ka helu ana o na malama.
Let a darksome whirlwind seize upon that night, let it not be counted in the days of the year, nor numbered in the months.
7 Aia hoi, o ua po la, e hooneoneoia oia; Aole e hookomoia ka leo olioli iloko ona.
Let that night be solitary, and not worthy of praise.
8 Na lakou ia e hoino, na ka poe e hoino ana i ua la la, Ka poe makaukau no ke kanikau ana.
Let them curse it who curse the day. who are ready to raise up a leviathan:
9 E hoopouliia na hoku o kona wa molehulehu: E kali aku ia i ka malamalama, a loaa ole; Aole hoi ia e ike i ka wehe ana o ke alaula.
Let the stars be darkened with the mist thereof: let it expect light and not see it, nor the rising of the dawning of the day:
10 No ka mea, aole ia i hoopaa i na puka o ka opu o kuu makuwahine, Aole hoi ia i huna i ka popilikia mai ko'u maka aku.
Because it shut not up the doors of the womb that bore me, nor took away evils from my eyes.
11 No ke aha la i make ole ai au mai ka opu mai? No ke aha la i kaili ole ia kuu ea i kuu puka ana mai ka opu mai?
Why did I not die in the womb, why did I not perish when I came out of the belly?
12 No ke aha la i kokua ai na kuli ia'u? No ke aha hoi na u, i omo aku ai au?
Why received upon the knees? why suckled at the breasts?
13 Alaila, ua moe iho au ano, a ua maluhia iho, Ua hiamoe iho la au, alaila ua maha iho la au,
For now I should have been asleep and still, and should have rest in my sleep.
14 Me na'lii, a me na kuhina o ka honua, Ka poe i kukulu i na wahi neoneo no lakou:
With kings and consuls of the earth, who build themselves solitudes:
15 Me na keiki alii paha, ka poe mea gula, Me ka poe i hoopiha i ko lakou mau hale i ke kala:
Or with princes, that possess gold, and All their houses with silver:
16 A, me he mea la i hanau i ka wa, ua ole au; Me na keiki ike ole i ka malamalama.
Or as a hidden untimely birth I should not be, or as they that being conceived have not seen the light.
17 Malaila e hooki ai ka poe hewa i ka hana kolohe ana; Malaila hoi e hoomahaia'i ka poe i luhi o ka ikaika.
There the wicked cease from tumult, and there the wearied in strength are at rest.
18 A e hoomaha pu ia'i hoi ka poe pio; Aole lakou i lohe i ka leo o ka mea hooluhi.
And they sometime bound together without disquiet, have not heard the voice of the oppressor.
19 O ka mea uuku, a me ka mea nui, aia no malaila; A o ke kauwa, ua kaawale ia mai kona haku aku.
The small and great are there, and the servant is free from his master.
20 No ke aha la i haawiia mai ai ka malamalama i ka mea popilikia, A me ke ola i ka mea eha ma ka naau?
Why is light given to him that is in misery, and life to them that are in bitterness of soul?
21 Ka poe e kali ana i ka make, aole i hiki mai, A ua oi ko lakou eli ana ia mea, mamua o na waiwai i hunaia;
That look for death, and it cometh not, as they that dig for a treasure:
22 I ka poe hauoli nui me ka olioli, I ka wa i loaa'i ia lakou ka luakupapau?
And they rejoice exceedingly when they have found the grave.
23 I ke kanaka i hunaia kona aoao, I ka mea a ke Akua i hoopuni ai?
To a man whose way is hidden, and God hath surrounded him with darkness?
24 No ka mea, ua hiki pu mai ko'u kaniuhu ana me kuu ai ana, A ua nininiia'ku ko'u uwe ana e like me na wai.
Before I eat I sigh: and as overflowing waters, so is my roaring:
25 No ka mea, ua makau au i ka mea makau, a ua hiki mai ia maluna o'u, A o ka mea a'u i weliweli ai ua hele mai ia io'u nei.
For the fear which I feared hath come upon me: and that which I was afraid of, hath befallen me.
26 Aole au i pomaikai, aole hoi i oluolu, Aole hoi i maha; aka, hiki mai ka popilikia.
Have I not dissembled? have I not kept silence? have I not been quiet? and indignation is come upon me.
