< Joba 18 >

1 Dia namaly Bildada Sohita ka nanao hoe:
Pea naʻe toki tali ʻe Pilitati mei Suaa, ʻo ne pehē,
2 Mandra-pahoviana no hamandrika teny ianareo? Mba hendre aloha, dia vao hiteny izahay.
“ʻE fēfē hono fuoloa pea ke fakangata ʻae lea? Tokanga, pea te mau toki lea.
3 Sao ataonareo ho biby anie izahay ka tahaka ny maloto eo imasonareo?
Ko e hā kuo lau ai ʻakimautolu ko e fanga manu, pea lau ko e ʻuli ʻi ho ʻao?
4 Ry ilay mamiravira tena amin’ ny fahatezerana, noho ny aminao va no hahatonga ny tany ho lao, ary ny vatolampy hafindra hiala amin’ ny fitoerany?
‌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 Tsy izany, fa ho faty ny jiron’ ny ratsy fanahy, ary hilopilopy ny lelafony;
“Ko e moʻoni, ʻe tāmateʻi ʻae maama ʻoe angahala, pea ʻe ʻikai ulo ʻae kalofiama ʻo ʻene afi.
6 Ny mazava manjary maizina ao amin’ ny lainy, ary ny jirony eo amboniny dia maty.
‌ʻE fakapoʻuli ʻae maama ʻi hono fale, pea ʻe tāmateʻi ʻa ʻene maama fakataha mo ia.
7 Etena ny herin’ ny diany, ary ny fisainany ihany no mandavo azy.
‌ʻE fakaʻapiʻapi ʻae lakaʻanga ʻo hono mālohi, pea ʻe lī ki lalo ia ʻe heʻene fakakaukau ʻaʻana.
8 Fa ny tongony ihany no mahatonga azy eo amin’ ny fandrika harato, ka manitsaka eo amin’ ny harato izy;
He ko hono kauvaʻe ʻoʻona kuo ne lī ia ki he kupenga, pea ʻoku ne ʻeveʻeva ʻi he funga tauhele.
9 Azon’ ny fandrika ny ombelahin-tongony ary voahazon’ ny tadivavarana
‌ʻE moʻua ia ʻe he hele ʻi hono muivaʻe, pea ʻe ikuna ia ʻe he kaihaʻa.
10 Miafina ao amin’ ny tany ny fandrika haningotra azy sy ny tonta eny an-dalana.
Kuo ʻai ʻae tauhele kiate ia ʻi he kelekele, mo e sokitanu kiate ia ʻi he hala.
11 Fampitahorana no mampitahotra azy manodidina ka mampivadi-po azy eny amin’ ny alehany rehetra.
‌ʻE fakamanavahēʻi ia ʻe he ngaahi meʻa fakailifia mei he potu kotoa pē, pea ʻe fakaveʻevave ia.
12 Liana azy ny loza, ary ny fandringanana dia vonona eo anilany;
‌ʻE kai ʻe he fiekaia ʻa hono mālohi, pea ʻe tali ofi ʻae fakaʻauha ki hono vakavaka.
13 Eny, laniny tsikelikely ny hodiny; ny momba ny tenany dia lanin’ ny lahimatoan’ ny fahafatesana.
‌ʻE fakaʻauha ʻe ia ʻae mālohi ʻo hono sino: ʻio, ko e ʻuluaki fānau ʻoe mate te ne fakaʻauha ʻene mālohi.
14 Ongotana hiala amin’ ny lainy ny zavatra itokiany, ka tsy maintsy ho entina ho amin’ ilay mpanjaka mampahatahotra indrindra izy.
‌ʻE lī kituʻa mei hono fale ʻa hono falalaʻanga, pea ko ia ʻe ʻomi ia ki he tuʻi ʻoe fakailifia.
15 Izay tsy taranany no hitoetra ao amin’ ny lainy; Solifara no hafafy amin’ ny fonenany.
‌ʻE nofo ia ʻi hono fale, he ʻoku ʻikai ʻoʻona ia: ʻe tūtuuʻi ki hono ʻapi ʻae sulifa.
16 Maina ny fakany ao ambany, ary tapaka ny rantsany eo ambony.
‌ʻE mōmoa mei lalo hono ngaahi aka, pea ʻe motuhi mei ʻolunga ʻa hono vaʻa.
17 Ny fahatsiarovana azy dia very tsy ho eo amin’ ny tany. Ary tsy malaza eny ivelany izy.
Ko hono manatuʻi ʻe ʻauha mei he fonua, pea ʻe ʻikai hano hingoa ʻi he hala.
18 Roahina hiala amin’ ny mazava ho any amin’ ny maizina izy ary enjehina hiala amin’ izao tontolo izao.
‌ʻE kapusi ia mei he maama ki he poʻuli, pea ʻe tulia ia mei he māmani.
19 Tsy manana fara mandimby eo amin’ ny fireneny izy, ka tsy misy tsy tratry ny loza ny ao amin’ ny fonenany.
‌ʻE ʻikai maʻu ʻe ia ha foha pe mokopuna ʻi hono kakai, ʻe ʻikai toe ha niʻihi ʻi hono ngaahi fale.
20 Ny manjo azy dia italanjonan’ ny any andrefana, ary ny any atsinanana raiki-tahotra.
Ko kinautolu ʻe muimui ʻiate ia te nau ofo ki hono ʻaho, ʻo hangē ko e ilifia ʻanautolu naʻa nau feangai.
21 Izany tokoa no anjaran’ ny ratsy fanahy, ary izany no manjo ny tsy mahalala an’ Andriamanitra.
Ko e moʻoni ʻoku pehē pe ʻae ngaahi nofoʻanga ʻoe angahala, pea ko eni ʻae potu ʻo ia ʻoku taʻeʻiloʻi ʻae ʻOtua.”
