Ioba 5
1 E KAHEA ano, ina paha e pane mai kekahi ia oe; Io wai la o na mea laa e huli ai oe?
“Wopɛ a frɛ, na hwan na ɔbɛgye wo soɔ? Akronkronfoɔ no mu hwan nkyɛn na wobɛkorɔ?
2 No ka mea, ke pepehi nei ka inaina i ka mea naaupo, A ke hoomake nei ka huhu i ka mea hawawa.
Ahisɛm kum ɔkwasea, na anibereɛ kum atetekwaa.
3 Ua ike au i ka mea naaupo e ulu ana; A hoino koke aku au i kona noho ana.
Mʼankasa mahunu ɔkwasea a ɔrefefɛ, nanso, mpofirim, wɔdomee ne fie.
4 Ua mamao aku kana poe keiki i ka maluhia, Ua ulupaia lakou ma ka pukapa, Aohe mea nana e hoopakele.
Ne mma ne banbɔ ntam ɛkwan ware, wɔdwerɛ wɔn wɔ asɛnniiɛ a wɔnnya ɔkamafoɔ.
5 O kana ai i ohiia ua pau i ka mea pololi, A ua lawe aku ia mea mailoko mai o na laau kuku, A kaili na powa i ko lakou waiwai.
Deɛ ɛkɔm de noɔ no di ne nnɔbaeɛ, na ɔfa firi nkasɛɛ mu mpo, na deɛ osukɔm de noɔ no pere di nʼahodeɛ akyi.
6 No ka mea, aole e puka mai ka popilikia mai ka lepo mai, Aole hoi e kupu mai ka ehaeha mailoko mai o ka honua.
Ahokyere mmpue mfiri dɔteɛ mu na ɔhaw nso mmpue mfiri fam.
7 Aka, ua hanau ke kanaka no ka ehaeha, E like me na hunaahi i lele ae iluna.
Nanso wɔwo nnipa to ɔhaw mu mpɛn dodoɔ a ogyaframa turi kɔ ɔsoro.
8 Aka e imi au i ke Akua, A i ke Akua e waiho aku i kuu olelo;
“Nanso sɛ ɛyɛ me a, anka mɛdwane atoa Onyankopɔn; na mede mʼasɛm ato nʼanim.
9 Oia ke hana i na mea nui, a hiki ole ke hoomaopopoia; I na mea kupaianaha, a hiki ole ke heluia:
Ɔyɛ anwanwadeɛ a wɔntumi nhwehwɛ mu, ne nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ a wɔntumi nkan ne dodoɔ.
10 Ka mea e haawi ana i ka ua maluna o ka honua, A e hoouna mai ana i na wai maluna o na kula.
Ɔtɔ nsuo gu asase so; na ɔde kɔ wira mu.
11 E hookiekie iluna i ka poe i hoowahawahaia; I kaikaiia'i iluna i kahi malu ka poe e uwe ana.
Ɔde ahobrɛasefoɔ si deɛ ɛkorɔn, na ɔma wɔn a wɔdi awerɛhoɔ nya asomdwoeɛ.
12 Ke hookahuli nei oia i na manao o ka poe maalea, A hiki ole i ko lakou lima ke hooko i ko lakou mea i manao ai.
Ɔsɛe anifirefoɔ nhyehyɛeɛ, ma wɔn nsa si fam.
13 Ke hei aku nei oia i ka poe akamai iloko o ko lakou maalea; A ua hoohioloia ka manao o ka poe paakiki.
Ɔkyere anyansafoɔ wɔ wɔn anifire mu, na ɔbɔ anitefoɔ nhyehyɛeɛ gu.
14 I ke ao halawai lakou me ka pouli, A ke hana nei lakou i ka wa awakea, e like me ia i ka po.
Esum duru wɔn awia ketee; na wɔkeka owigyinaeɛ te sɛ anadwo.
15 Aka, ke hoopakele no ia i ka poe ilihune mai ka pahikaua mai, mai ko lakou waha mai, A mai ka lima mai o ka mea ikaika.
Ɔgye ahiafoɔ firi afena a ɛhyɛ wɔn anomu; ɔgye wɔn firi ahoɔdenfoɔ nkyehoma mu.
16 Nolaila, ua loaa i ka mea hune ka manaolana, A ua hoopaa ka hewa i kona waha.
Enti, ahiafoɔ wɔ anidasoɔ, na ntɛnkyea ka nʼano to mu.
17 Aia hoi, pomaikai ke kanaka a ke Akua i hoeha mai; Nolaila, mai hoowahawaha oe i ka hahau ana mai o ka Mea mana:
“Nhyira ne onipa a Onyankopɔn tene no, enti mmu Otumfoɔ ntenetene no animtiaa.
18 No ka mea, ke hoeha mai nei ia, a e lapaau mai hoi: Ke hahau mai nei oia, a e hoola mai hoi kona mau lima.
Ɛfiri sɛ, ɔno na ɔpira na ɔno ara akyekyere; ɔpira nanso ne nsa sa yadeɛ.
19 Iloko o na pilikia eono e hoopakele mai oia ia oe: A iloko o ka hiku hoi, aole e hoopa mai ka ino ia oe.
Ɔbɛgye wo afiri ɔhaw ahodoɔ nsia mu; nson so, a bɔne biara renka wo.
20 Iloko o ka wi e hoopakele mai oia ia oe i ka make; A iloko o ke kaua, mai ka lima o ka pahikaua mai.
Ɛkɔm ba a, ɔbɛgye wo afiri owuo mu, na ɔko mu nso, ɔbɛgye wo afiri afena ano.
21 E hunaia oe mai ke alelo hoino mai: Aole hoi oe e makau i ka luku, ke hiki mai.
Wɔbɛbɔ wo ho ban afiri kasatwie ho na sɛ ɔsɛeɛ ba a, ɛnsɛ sɛ wosuro.
22 I ka luku a i ka pololi e akaaka no oe: Aole hoi oe e makau i na holoholona hihiu o ka honua.
Wobɛsere ɔsɛeɛ ne ɔkɔm; na ɛnsɛ sɛ wosuro asase so mmoa.
23 No ka mea, e noho kuikahi oe me na pohaku o ke kula; A e maluhia na holoholona hihiu o ke kula me oe.
Wo ne afuo so aboɔ bɛyɛ apam, na emu nkekaboa nso ne wo bɛtena asomdwoeɛ mu.
24 A e ike no oe, he maluhia kou halelewa: A e nana no oe i kou hale, aohe mea nalo.
Wobɛhunu sɛ wo ntomadan wɔ banbɔ; na sɛ wosese wʼahodeɛ a, wobɛhunu sɛ hwee nyeraeɛ.
25 A e ike no oe, he nui kou hua, A o kau poe keiki, e like me ka weuweu o ka honua.
Wobɛhunu sɛ wo mma bɛyɛ bebree; na wʼasefoɔ bɛdɔre sɛ ɛserɛ.
26 E hele auanei oe i ka luakupapau me ka ikaika nui, E like me na puu hua palaoa i kona manawa.
Wode ahoɔden bɛkɔ damena mu, te sɛ afiafi a wɔaboa ano wɔ otwa berɛ mu.
27 Aia hoi o keia ka makou i manao ai, pela io no; E hoolohe oe, a e ike oe ia mea pono nou.
“Yɛahwehwɛ yei mu, na ɛyɛ nokorɛ ɛno enti tie na fa toto wʼabrabɔ ho.”
