Ioba 1
1 HE kanaka ma ka aina o Uza, o Ioba kona inoa, ua pono, ua pololei hoi ua kanaka la, a ua makau no ia i ke Akua, a hoopale i ka hewa.
A man there hath been in the land of Uz — Job his name — and that man hath been perfect and upright — both fearing God, and turning aside from evil.
2 Ua hanauia nana ehiku mau keikikane, a me na kaikamahine ekolu.
And there are borne to him seven sons and three daughters,
3 O kana waiwai, ehiku tausani hipa me na kao, ekolu tausani kamelo, elima haneri bipikaulua a elima haneri hoki wahine, a he nui loa kona poe ohua; nolaila, ua oi aku ke koikoi o keia kanaka mamua o na kanaka a pau o ka hikina.
and his substance is seven thousand sheep, and three thousand camels, and five hundred pairs of oxen, and five hundred she-asses, and a service very abundant; and that man is greater than any of the sons of the east.
4 A hele aku la kana mau keikikane, a ahaaina iho la ma ka hale, o kela mea keia mea o lakou i kona la; a hoouna aku la, a hea aku i ko lakou mau kaikuwahine ekolu, e ai pu a e inu pu me lakou.
And his sons have gone and made a banquet — the house of each [in] his day — and have sent and called to their three sisters to eat and to drink with them;
5 A i ka manawa i hala ae ai na la o ka ahaaina ana, hoouna aku la o Ioba a hoomaemae ia lakou, a ala ae la i kakahiaka nui, a kaumaha aku la i na mohaikuni e like me ka nui o lakou a pau; no ka mea, i iho la o Ioba, Malia paha ua hana hewa ka'u mau keikikane, a ua olelo hoino i ke Akua ma ko lakou naau. Pela o Ioba i hana'i i na la a Pau.
and it cometh to pass, when they have gone round the days of the banquet, that Job doth send and sanctify them, and hath risen early in the morning, and caused to ascend burnt-offerings — the number of them all — for Job said, 'Perhaps my sons have sinned, yet blessed God in their heart.' Thus doth Job all the days.
6 A i kekahi la, i ka manawa i hele ai na keiki a ke Akua e hoike aku ia lakou iho imua o Iehova, i hele mai hoi o Satana iwaena o lakou.
And the day is, that sons of God come in to station themselves by Jehovah, and there doth come also the Adversary in their midst.
7 A i mai la o Iehova ia Satana, Nohea oe i hele mai nei? olelo aku la o Satana ia Iehova, Mai ka auwana ana ma ka honua, a mai ka hele ana io ia nei malaila.
And Jehovah saith unto the Adversary, 'Whence comest thou?' And the Adversary answereth Jehovah and saith, 'From going to and fro in the land, and from walking up and down on it.'
8 I mai la o Iehova ia Satana, Ua noonoo pono anei oe i ka'u kauwa ia Ioba, aohe mea like me ia ma ka honua, he kanaka pono me ka pololei, ua makau i ke Akua, a ua hookaaokoa i ka hewa.
And Jehovah saith unto the Adversary, 'Hast thou set thy heart against My servant Job because there is none like him in the land, a man perfect and upright, fearing God, and turning aside from evil?'
9 Alaila olelo aku la o Satana ia Iehova, i aku la, Ke makau kumu ole la anei o Ioba i ke Akua?
And the Adversary answereth Jehovah and saith, 'For nought is Job fearing God?
10 Aole anei oe i hoopuni ia ia, a me kona hale a me kona mea a pau i ka pa ma na aoao a pau? Ua hoopomaikai oe i ka hana a kona mau lima, a mahuahua kona waiwai ma ka aina.
Hast not Thou made a hedge for him, and for his house, and for all that he hath — round about?
11 Aka, e kikoo aku ano i kou lima, a hoopa i kana mau mea a pau, a e hoino no kela ia oe imua o kou maka.
The work of his hands Thou hast blessed, and his substance hath spread in the land, and yet, put forth, I pray Thee, Thy hand, and strike against anything that he hath — if not: to Thy face he doth bless Thee!'
12 Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Satana, Aia hoi, iloko o kou lima kana mau mea a pau; aka, maluna ona mai kau aku oe i kou lima. A hele aku la o Satana mai ke alo aku o Iehova.
And Jehovah saith unto the Adversary, 'Lo, all that he hath [is] in thy hand, only unto him put not forth thy hand.' And the Adversary goeth out from the presence of Jehovah.
13 A i kekahi la, i ka manawa o kana mau keikikane a me kana mau kaikamahine e ahaaina ana, a e inu waina ana iloko o ka hale o ko lakou hanau mua;
And the day is, that his sons and his daughters are eating, and drinking wine, in the house of their brother, the first-born.
14 Hele mai kekahi elele io Ioba la, i mai la, O na bipikauo e hoopalau ana, a o na hoki wahine e ai ana ma ko lakou aoao;
And a messenger hath come in unto Job and saith, 'The oxen have been plowing, and the she-asses feeding by their sides,
15 A popoi mai la ka poe Seba maluna o lakou, a lawe pio aku la i ia lakou; a pepehi iho la lakou i na kanaka opiopio me ka maka o ka pahikaua; a owau wale no ka i pakele e hai aku ia oe.
and Sheba doth fall, and take them, and the young men they have smitten by the mouth of the sword, and I am escaped — only I alone — to declare [it] to thee.'
16 A i kana kamailio ana, hele mai kekahi, i mai la, Ua lele mai ke ahi a ke Akua mai ka lani mai, a ua ai iho i na hipa a me na kahu, a ua hoopau ia lakou; a owau wale no ka i pakele e hai aku ia oe.
While this [one] is speaking another also hath come and saith, 'Fire of God hath fallen from the heavens, and burneth among the flock, and among the young men, and consumeth them, and I am escaped — only I alone — to declare [it] to thee.'
17 A i kana kamailio ana, hele mai kekahi e ae, i mai la, Hoonohonoho iho la ka poe Kaledea i ekolu poe kaua, a lele mai lakou maluna o na kamelo, a lawe pio aku ia lakou, a pepehi iho la i na kauwa opiopio me ka maka o ka pahikaua; a owau wale no ka i pakele e hai aku ia oe.
While this [one] is speaking another also hath come and saith, 'Chaldeans made three heads, and rush on the camels, and take them, and the young men they have smitten by the mouth of the sword, and I am escaped — only I alone — to declare [it] to thee.'
18 I kana kamailio ana, hele mai kekahi e ae, i mai la, O kau mau keikikane, a me kau mau kaikamahine, e ai ana a e inu waina ana iloko o ka hale o ko lakou hanau mua:
While this [one] is speaking another also hath come and saith, 'Thy sons and thy daughters are eating, and drinking wine, in the house of their brother, the first-born.
19 Aia hoi, hiki mai la ka makani ikaika mai ka aoao o ka waonahele mai, a nou mai ma na kihi eha o ka hale, a hina iho la ia maluna o na kanaka opiopio, a ua make lakou; a owau wale no ka i pakele e hai aku ia oe.
And lo, a great wind hath come from over the wilderness, and striketh against the four corners of the house, and it falleth on the young men, and they are dead, and I am escaped — only I alone — to declare [it] to thee.'
20 Alaila ku ae la o Ioba, a baehae iho la i kona aahu, a ako i kona poo, a hina ilalo i ka honua, a hoomana aku la,
And Job riseth, and rendeth his robe, and shaveth his head, and falleth to the earth, and doth obeisance,
21 I iho la, I hele kohana mai no au mai ka opu mai o ko'u makuwahine, a e hoi kohana aku au ilaila: na Iehova i haawi mai, na Iehova hoi i lawe aku; e hoomaikaiia ka inoa o Iehova.
and he saith, 'Naked came I forth from the womb of my mother, and naked I turn back thither: Jehovah hath given and Jehovah hath taken: let the name of Jehovah be blessed.'
22 Ma keia mea a pau, aole o Ioba i hana hewa, aole hoi ia i hooili wale aku i ka hewa i ke Akua.
In all this Job hath not sinned, nor given folly to God.
