Jovu 4

1 Hagi anante Temani mopafinti ne' Elifasi'a amanage huno kenona hu'ne,

Pea toki leaange ai ʻa Elifasi mei Timani, ʻo ne pehē,

2 Mago vahe'mo'ma kagri'enema nanekema hu'zama nehanigenka akohenka mani'nenka ontahigahano? Hagi nagra nagitera aze'ori'na hunaku'ma hanua nanekea amne kasmigahue.

“Kapau te mau ʻahiʻahi ke lea kiate koe, te ke ʻita ai? Ka ko hai te ne faʻa taʻofi ia ʻe ia mei he lea?

3 Rama'a vahe antahintahia nezminka, hankavezmi omne vahera zamazeri hankaveti'nane.

Vakai, kuo ke akonekina ʻae tokolahi, pea kuo ke fakamālohiʻi ʻae nima vaivai.

4 Tanafa'ma hu'za mase'zama nehaza vahetmina, nanekeka'amo'a zamazeri hankavenetino, zaferina omne amnema hia vahera hankavea nezamie.

Naʻe poupou hake ʻe hoʻo ngaahi lea ʻaia naʻe meimei hinga, pea kuo ke fakamālohiʻi ʻae foʻi tui vaivai.

5 Hianagi menima knazampi nemaninkeno'a krimpamo'a haviza nehie. Hazenke zamo'ma kavate'ma egenka kagogogu nehane.

Ka ko eni kuo hoko ia kiate koe, pea ke vaivai; ʻoku ala ia kiate koe, pea ʻoku ke puputuʻu.

6 Anumzamofonku'ma koro hunentenka fatgo hunka nemaninazanku kamentintia nehunka, Anumzamo naza hugahie nehano?

He kofaʻā eni hoʻo manavahē, hoʻo falala, hoʻo ʻamanaki lelei, mo e angatonu ʻa ho ngaahi hala?

7 Kagesa antahigo, hazenke'a omne vahe'mo'a amnea frigahifi? Hagi fatgo avu'ava'ma nehia vahera inantega ahe fri'negenka ke'nane?

“ʻOku ou kole kiate koe, ke ke fakamanatu, ko hai ha taʻeangahala naʻe ʻauha? Pea ko e potu fē naʻe motuhi ai ʻae māʻoniʻoni?

8 Hagi nagrama ke'na antahi'nama hu'noana, hozama eri'za avimzama hankre'za hamarazankna hu'za kefo avu'avazama nehaza vahe'mo'za hazenke'za nehamaraze.

‌ʻIo, ʻo hangē pe ko ia kuo u mamata ki ai, ko kinautolu ʻoku keli ʻae angahala, mo tūtuuʻi ʻae fai kovi, ʻoku nau utu pe ia.

9 Anumzamofo rimpa ahezamo'a, zaho'mo'ma maka'zama eri haviza hiaza huno, Agra asimu'ma antea zantetira zamahe fanane nehie.

‌ʻI he ifi ʻae ʻOtua ʻoku nau ʻauha, pea ko e mānava ʻo hono fofonga ʻoku nau ʻosiʻosingamālie ai.

10 Zamagra ha' laionimo'ma ha' hunaku nehiaza hu'za krafa nehu'za, rekazigazi hugahazanagi, hanave laionimofona aheno avera rutafrigahie.

‌ʻOku [fakangata ]ʻae ngungulu ʻoe laione, mo e leʻo ʻoe laione fekai, pea ʻoku mafesifesi ʻae kau nifo ʻoe fanga laione mui.

11 Hagi ana ha' laionimo'za ahe'zama nenaza zaga omanisige'za zamagaku nehu'za mofavrezmia atresage'za panini hu'za hazagre'za vu'za e'za hugahaze.

‌ʻOku ʻauha ʻae motuʻa laione ko e masiva meʻa kai, pea ko e fānganga ʻoe laione mālohi kuo fakahēʻi mamaʻo.

12 Hagi tamage nanekea oku'a sumi sumi hu'za eme nasmizage'na antahi'noe.

“Ko eni, naʻe ai ha meʻa naʻe ʻomi fufū kiate au, pea naʻe ongoʻi ʻe hoku telinga ʻae fafana ʻo ia.

13 Vahe'mo'za mase himrenageno, kenage ava'nafi ana nanekea eme nasmizage'na anhintahi hakare nehugeno,

‌ʻI he ngaahi mahalo mei he ngaahi meʻa hā mai ʻoe pō, ʻoka tō ʻae mohe maʻu ki he kakai,

14 tusi nagogo nefegeno, zaferinani'a omne amne nehige'na, tusi nahirahiku hu'noe.

Naʻe hoko mai kiate au ʻae manavahē, mo e tetetete, ʻaia naʻe fakangalulu ai hoku ngaahi hui kotoa pē.

15 Mago zaho erino navufi evigeno, navufga nazokamo'a harahara huno oti vagare'ne.

Pea naʻe toki māʻali ai ʻae laumālie ʻi hoku ʻao; pea naʻe vavana hake ʻae fulufulu ʻo hoku sino:

16 Hagi ana zaho'ma erino'ma evigenama koana, mago zamofo amema'a fore huno oti'neanagi, avufga'a onke'noe. Anama nehigeno agasasama omanenefintira mago agerumo'a anage hu'ne.

Naʻe tuʻu mai ia, ka naʻe ʻikai te u ʻilo hono anga: naʻe ʻi hoku ʻao ʻae fakatātā, naʻe longo pe, pea ne u ongoʻi ʻae leʻo, naʻe pehē,

17 Anumzamofo avurera mago vahe'mo'a fatgo osu'ne. Tro'ma hurante'nea Anumzamofo avurera magora agru vahera omanifta hu'ne.

“ʻE faʻa angatonu lahi hake ʻae tangata ki hono ʻOtua? ʻE māʻoniʻoni lahi hake ʻae tangata ki hono Tupuʻanga?

18 Anumzamo'a eri'za vahe'anena antahi nozmino ankero vahe'amofo havi zamavu'zmava zana refko huno nezamage.

Vakai, ʻoku ʻikai te ne falala ki heʻene kau tamaioʻeiki, pea ko ʻene kau ʻāngelo ʻoku ʻikai ke ne fakamālō ki ai.

19 Hagi vahera Anumzamo'a mopareti eri kripeno tro hunteneankino (moth) afovage brebrema rehapatiaza hugahie.

Kae huanoa ʻakinautolu ʻoku nofo ʻi he ngaahi fale ʻumea, ko honau tuʻunga ʻoku ʻi he efu, pea ʻoku taʻomia ʻakinautolu ʻo hangē pe ko e ane?

20 Hagi trazamo'za nantera fore hute'za, kinaga sege'za frizankna hu'za ana fri fanane hazage'za antahi nozamize.

‌ʻOku tā hifo ʻakinautolu mei he pongipongi ʻo aʻu ki he efiafi: ʻoku nau ʻauha ʻo taʻetuku, ka ʻoku ʻikai tokanga ki ai ha taha.

21 Seli nozmimofo nofira katufe atrazageno pasru hiankna hu'za knare antahintahi omne vahe nefrize.

Pea ʻikai ʻoku mole atu ʻae lelei kotoa pē ʻoku ʻiate kinautolu? ʻOku nau mate, ʻio, ʻi he taʻehapoto.’
