1 Pea naʻe toki tali ʻe Elifasi mei Timani, ʻo ne pehē,
Nake Elifazu ũrĩa Mũtemaani akĩũria atĩrĩ:
2 “He ʻoku taau mo e tangata poto ke lau meʻa vaʻinga, mo fakapito hono kete ʻaki ʻae matangi hahake?
“Mũndũ mũũgĩ no acookie ũhoro na kwĩgereria, kana aiyũrie nda yake na rũhuho ruumĩte na irathĩro?
3 ʻOku taau ʻene leaʻaki ʻae lea taʻeʻaonga? Pe ko e ngaahi lau ʻe ʻikai te ne lavaʻi ʻaki ha lelei?
No eciirĩrĩre na ciugo cia tũhũ, kana na mĩario ĩtarĩ bata?
4 ʻIo, ʻoku ke liʻaki ʻae manavahē, pea ke taʻofi ʻae lotu ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ʻOtua.
No wee-rĩ, nĩũracambia ũhoro wa gwĩtigĩra Ngai, na ũkagirĩrĩria ũhoro wa andũ kwĩrutĩra Mũrungu.
5 He ʻoku lea ʻaki ʻe ho ngutu ʻa hoʻo angahala, ka ʻoku ke fili ki he ʻelelo ʻoe fakaoloolo.
Mehia maku nĩmo mataaraga kanua gaku; nawe ũthuurĩte kwaria na rũrĩmĩ rwa mũndũ mwara.
6 ʻOku talatalaakiʻi koe ʻe ho ngutu pe ʻoʻou, kae ʻikai ko au: ʻio, ko ho loungutu pe ʻoʻou ʻoku fakamoʻoni kiate koe.
Kanua gaku wee mwene nĩko karagũtuĩra ciira, ti gakwa: nayo mĩromo yaku wee mwene ĩkaaria ũira wa gũgũũkĩrĩra.
7 “He ko e ʻuluaki tangata koe naʻe fanauʻi? Pe naʻe fakatupu koe ʻi muʻa ʻi he ngaahi moʻunga?
“Wee nĩwe mũndũ wa mbere gũciarwo? Wee-rĩ, waciarirwo mbere ya irĩma igĩe ho?
8 He kuo ke fanongo ʻe koe ki he meʻa fufū ʻae ʻOtua? Pea ʻoku ke fakangata ʻae poto kiate koe?
Wee nĩũthikagĩrĩria ndundu ya Ngai? Wee wiki-rĩ, nowe ũrigĩtie na ũũgĩ?
9 Ko e hā ʻoku ke ʻilo, ka ʻoku ʻikai te mau ʻilo? Ko e hā ʻoku ke ʻilo pau, ʻaia ʻoku ʻikai ʻiate kimautolu?
Nĩ atĩa ũũĩ ithuĩ tũtooĩ? Nĩ ũmenyo ũrĩkũ ũrĩ naguo ithuĩ tũtarĩ?
10 ʻOku ʻiate kimautolu ʻae ʻuluhinā mo e kau mātuʻa, ʻoku motuʻa lahi ʻi hoʻo tamai.
Tũrĩ na athuuri marĩ na mbuĩ na arĩa akũrũ mũno, andũ akũrũ o na gũkĩra thoguo.
11 He ʻoku siʻi ʻae ngaahi fakafiemālie ʻae ʻOtua kiate koe? He ʻoku ai ha meʻa fakalilolilo ʻiate koe?
Ndũiganĩtwo nĩ ũhoorerania wa Mũrungu, o na kana ũhoro ũcio warĩirio na ũhooreri?
12 Ko e hā ʻoku ʻāvea ai koe ʻe ho loto? Pea ʻoku lalama ho mata ʻi he hā.
Ngoro yaku ĩgũteete nĩkĩ, na nĩ kĩĩ kĩratũma ũikare ũkiunaga maitho,
13 Koeʻuhi ʻoku ke fakafoki ho loto ke tuʻu ki he ʻOtua, pea tuku ke tafe ʻae ngaahi lea ni mei ho ngutu?
nĩguo werekerie marakara maku kũrĩ Mũrungu, o na ũgaitũrũra ciugo ta icio kuuma kanua gaku?
14 Ko e hā ʻae tangata, ke pehē ʻoku maʻa ia? Pe ha taha ʻoku fanauʻi ʻe he fefine, ke pehē ʻoku tonuhia ia?
“Mũndũ akĩrĩ kĩ, atĩ no ahote gũtuĩka mũtheru, o na mũndũ ũciarĩtwo nĩ mũndũ-wa-nja nake akĩrĩ kĩĩ, atĩ no ahote gũtuĩka mũthingu?
15 Vakai, ʻoku ʻikai falala siʻi ʻe ia ki heʻene kau māʻoniʻoni; ʻio, naʻa mo e ngaahi langi ʻoku ʻikai maʻa ia ʻi hono ʻao.
Angĩkorwo Ngai ndangĩhota kwĩhoka andũ arĩa ake aamũre-rĩ, na kũngĩkorwo o na igũrũ ti gũtheru maitho-inĩ make-rĩ,
16 Ka ʻe fēfē hono lahi hake ʻoe fakalielia mo e ʻuli ʻoe tangata, ʻaia ʻoku ne inumia ʻae angahala ʻo hangē ha vai?
mũndũ akĩrĩ kĩ atĩ amwĩhoke? Mũndũ nĩ mwaganu na nĩ kĩmaramari, anyuuaga waganu ta maaĩ!
17 “Te u fakahā kiate koe, fanongo kiate au; pea ko ia kuo u mamata ai te u fakamatala atu;
“Wee ta thikĩrĩria na nĩngũgũtaarĩria; reke ngwĩre ũrĩa nyonete,
18 ʻAia naʻe tala ʻe he kakai poto mei heʻenau ngaahi tamai, ʻo ʻikai fufū ia:
ngwĩre ũrĩa andũ arĩa oogĩ moigĩte, matekũhitha ũndũ o na ũmwe wa ũhoro ũrĩa maaheirwo nĩ maithe mao,
19 ʻAkinautolu pē naʻe foaki ki ai ʻae fonua, pea naʻe ʻikai feʻaluʻaki ha muli ʻiate kinautolu.
(o acio oiki maaheetwo bũrũri hĩndĩ ĩrĩa gũtaarĩ mũndũ wa kũngĩ watuĩkanagia gatagatĩ-inĩ kao):
20 ʻOku langa mamahi ʻae tangata angahala ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē, pea ʻoku fufū mei he fakaaoao ʻae lau ʻoe ngaahi taʻu.
Atĩrĩ, mũndũ mwaganu akoragwo na mĩnyamaro matukũ make mothe. Matukũ mothe ma ũcio ũtarĩ tha-rĩ, maigĩirwo o mĩnyamaro.
21 Ko e ongo fakailifia ʻoku ʻi hono telinga: ʻi he lolotonga ʻo ʻene monūʻia ʻe hoko kiate ia ʻae fakaʻauha.
Aiguaga o mĩgambo ya kũmakania mũno; hĩndĩ ĩrĩa maũndũ mothe moneka ta marĩ mega-rĩ, atunyani makamũtharĩkĩra.
22 ʻOku ʻikai ʻamanaki ʻe ia ke ne liu mai mei he fakapoʻuli, pea ʻoku talia ia ʻe he heletā.
Ndarĩ na kĩĩrĩgĩrĩro gĩa gwĩthara kuuma nduma-inĩ; etereirio kũũragwo na rũhiũ rwa njora.
23 ʻOku ʻalu fano pe ia ʻo kumi ʻae mā, ʻo pehē, ‘Ko mā ia?’ ʻOku ne ʻilo ʻoku ofi ʻae ʻaho ʻoe fakapoʻuli.
Orũũraga agĩcaragia irio, oragie atĩrĩ, ‘Irĩ na kũ?’ Aikaraga amenyete atĩ mũthenya wa nduma ũrĩ o hakuhĩ.
24 ʻE fakamanavahēʻi ia ʻe he mamahi mo e feinga; te na ikuna ia, ʻo hangē ha tuʻi kuo teu ki he tuʻa.
Mĩnyamaro na ruo rwa ngoro nĩcio imũmakagia; imũtooragia taarĩ mũthamaki wĩhaarĩirie kũmũtharĩkĩra,
25 He ʻoku ne mafao atu hono nima ki he ʻOtua, ʻo ne fakamālohi ia ʻo tuʻu ki he Māfimafi.
nĩ ũndũ ainainagĩria Mũrungu ngundi, na akangʼathĩria Mwene-Hinya-Wothe,
26 ʻOku ne ʻohofi kiate ia, ʻio, ki hono kia, ki he ngaahi potu matolu ʻo hono sifa fatafata:
akamũguthũkĩra angʼathĩtie, arĩ na ngo yake mata ya hinya.
27 Koeʻuhi ʻoku ne fai ke fuʻu pupula hono mata, pea ne fangapesi ke matolu ʻae ngako ʻi hono ngaahi potu.
“O na gũtuĩka ũthiũ wake nĩ mũnoru, na njohero yake ĩkaneneha nĩ kũnora-rĩ,
28 Ka ʻoku ne nofo ʻi he ngaahi kolo lala, ʻi he ngaahi fale ʻoku ʻikai nofo ai ha taha, ʻaia kuo tuʻutuʻuni ko e ngaahi tuʻunga veve.
agaatũũraga matũũra maanangĩku, na aikarage nyũmba itatũũragwo nĩ mũndũ, nyũmba itigairie o kũmomoka ituĩke ihumbu cia mahiga.
29 ʻE ʻikai koloaʻia ia, ʻe ʻikai tuʻumaʻu ʻene ngaahi meʻa, pea ʻe ʻikai te ne faʻa fai ke fakatolonga hono lelei ʻi he fonua.
Ndagacooka gũkorwo arĩ mũtongu, naguo ũtonga wake ndũgatũũra, o na kana indo ciake itheereme kũu bũrũri-inĩ.
30 ʻE ʻikai ʻalu ia mei he fakapoʻuli; ʻe mangia ʻe he afi ʻa hono ngaahi vaʻa, pea ʻi he mānava ʻo hono fofonga ʻe mole atu ia.
Ndakahota kũũrĩra nduma; rũrĩrĩmbĩ nĩrũkahoohia thuuna ciake, nayo mĩhũmũ ya kanua ka Ngai nĩĩkamweheria.
31 Ke ʻoua naʻa falala ia ʻaia kuo kākaaʻi ki he vaʻinga: ko hono totongi ko e vaʻinga pe.
Nĩatige kwĩheenia na ũndũ wa kwĩhoka maũndũ ma tũhũ, nĩgũkorwo gũtirĩ kĩndũ makaamũrehere.
32 ʻE fakamoʻoni eni ʻi he teʻeki hoko hono ʻaho, pea ʻe ʻikai maʻuiʻui hono vaʻa.
Ihinda rĩake rĩtanakinya-rĩ, nĩakarĩhio mũigana wake wothe, na honge ciake itikarura.
33 ʻE lulu ʻe ia ke tō hono fuhi kālepi taʻemomoho ʻo hangē pe ko e vaine, pea te ne fakamokulu hono fisi ʻo hangē pē ko e ʻolive.
Agaatuĩka ta mũthabibũ ũhũrũrĩtwo thabibũ ciaguo itarĩ njĩru, ahaane ta mũtamaiyũ ũraita kĩro kĩaguo.
34 He koeʻuhi ʻe lala ʻae fakatahaʻanga ʻoe kau angahala, pea ʻe fakaʻauha ʻe he afi ʻae ngaahi fale naʻe maʻu ʻaki ʻae koloa kovi.
Nĩgũkorwo andũ a thiritũ ya arĩa matooĩ Ngai matũũraga marĩ thaata, na mwaki nĩũgaacina hema cia arĩa mendete mahaki.
35 ʻOku nau tuʻituʻia ʻi he pauʻu, pea nau fanauʻi ʻae vaʻinga, pea ʻoku teuteu ʻe honau loto ʻae kākā.
Magĩaga nda cia mathĩĩna, na magaciara waganu; nda ciao ithugundaga o maheeni.”
