Job 18

1 Na Bildad el fahk,

Pea naʻe toki tali ʻe Pilitati mei Suaa, ʻo ne pehē,

2 “Job, ku kain in mwet se kom an tiana ku in misla? Kom fin tuiwin ac lohng ma kut fahk uh, kut ac ku in sramsram nu sum.

“ʻE fēfē hono fuoloa pea ke fakangata ʻae lea? Tokanga, pea te mau toki lea.

3 Mea sis kom nunku mu kut lalfon oana cow uh?

Ko e hā kuo lau ai ʻakimautolu ko e fanga manu, pea lau ko e ʻuli ʻi ho ʻao?

4 Kom sifacna akkeokye kom ke kasrkusrak lom an. Mea, ku in wanginla mwet fin faclu kom fin kasrkusrak? Mea, God Elan mokle eol uh in tuh akinsewowoye kom?

‌ʻOku ne haehae ia ʻe ia pe ʻi heʻene ʻita: ʻe liʻaki ʻa māmani koeʻuhi ko koe? Pea ʻe hiki ʻae fuʻu makatuʻu mei hono potu?

5 “Kalem lun mwet koluk uh ac nuna kunlana; Firir kac uh ac fah tia ku in sifil kalem.

“Ko e moʻoni, ʻe tāmateʻi ʻae maama ʻoe angahala, pea ʻe ʻikai ulo ʻae kalofiama ʻo ʻene afi.

6 Lam in lohm nuknuk sel uh ac fah lohsrla.

‌ʻE fakapoʻuli ʻae maama ʻi hono fale, pea ʻe tāmateʻi ʻa ʻene maama fakataha mo ia.

7 Meet, el fahsr ku na, a inge el fahsr tukulkul; Kas in luti lal sifacna, oru el ikori.

‌ʻE fakaʻapiʻapi ʻae lakaʻanga ʻo hono mālohi, pea ʻe lī ki lalo ia ʻe heʻene fakakaukau ʻaʻana.

8 El fahsryang nu in sie nwek, ac nial sremla;

He ko hono kauvaʻe ʻoʻona kuo ne lī ia ki he kupenga, pea ʻoku ne ʻeveʻeva ʻi he funga tauhele.

9 Sie sruhf srumasrla kapinnial ac sruokilya.

‌ʻE moʻua ia ʻe he hele ʻi hono muivaʻe, pea ʻe ikuna ia ʻe he kaihaʻa.

10 Sie sruhf wikla oanna infohk uh; Sie pac sruhf uh oakwuki ke acn el fahsr we.

Kuo ʻai ʻae tauhele kiate ia ʻi he kelekele, mo e sokitanu kiate ia ʻi he hala.

11 Mwe aksangeng apnulla yen nukewa; Ac welul yen nukewa el fahsr we.

‌ʻE fakamanavahēʻi ia ʻe he ngaahi meʻa fakailifia mei he potu kotoa pē, pea ʻe fakaveʻevave ia.

12 Meet el kasrup, a inge el masrinsral; Mwe ongoiya oanna siskal soanel.

‌ʻE kai ʻe he fiekaia ʻa hono mālohi, pea ʻe tali ofi ʻae fakaʻauha ki hono vakavaka.

13 Sie mas na upa su ku in unilya kanglana manol, Ac kulweya paol ac nial.

‌ʻE fakaʻauha ʻe ia ʻae mālohi ʻo hono sino: ʻio, ko e ʻuluaki fānau ʻoe mate te ne fakaʻauha ʻene mālohi.

14 Amala el liki lohm nuknuk su el tuh muta insewowo loac, Ac kokola el nu ye mutun Tokosra lun Misa.

‌ʻE lī kituʻa mei hono fale ʻa hono falalaʻanga, pea ko ia ʻe ʻomi ia ki he tuʻi ʻoe fakailifia.

15 Inge kutena mwet ku in utyak ac muta in lohm nuknuk sel — Tukun aknasnasyeyukla ke sulphur!

‌ʻE nofo ia ʻi hono fale, he ʻoku ʻikai ʻoʻona ia: ʻe tūtuuʻi ki hono ʻapi ʻae sulifa.

16 Okah ac lah kacl uh uli ac paola.

‌ʻE mōmoa mei lalo hono ngaahi aka, pea ʻe motuhi mei ʻolunga ʻa hono vaʻa.

17 El tila pwengpeng in acn sel, oayapa in acn nukewa saya! Wangin mwet sifilpa esamul.

Ko hono manatuʻi ʻe ʻauha mei he fonua, pea ʻe ʻikai hano hingoa ʻi he hala.

18 El ac fah lisyukla liki facl sin mwet moul, Ac ukohkyak el liki kalem nu ke lohsr uh.

‌ʻE kapusi ia mei he maama ki he poʻuli, pea ʻe tulia ia mei he māmani.

19 Wangin fwilin tulik natul, nufonna misa.

‌ʻE ʻikai maʻu ʻe ia ha foha pe mokopuna ʻi hono kakai, ʻe ʻikai toe ha niʻihi ʻi hono ngaahi fale.

20 Mwet nukewa in acn kutulap lac nwe roto su lohng pweng kacl Elos sangeng ac rarrar.

Ko kinautolu ʻe muimui ʻiate ia te nau ofo ki hono ʻaho, ʻo hangē ko e ilifia ʻanautolu naʻa nau feangai.

21 Pa inge saflaiyen moul lun mwet koluk uh. Pa inge ma ac sikyak nu sin mwet su tia lulalfongi ke God.”

Ko e moʻoni ʻoku pehē pe ʻae ngaahi nofoʻanga ʻoe angahala, pea ko eni ʻae potu ʻo ia ʻoku taʻeʻiloʻi ʻae ʻOtua.”
