Siope 34
1 Pea naʻe fai pe ʻe Elihu ʻa ʻene lea, ʻo ne pehē,
A OLELO aku o Elihu, i aku la,
2 “ʻAe kau tangata poto, mou fanongo ki heʻeku ngaahi lea; pea tokanga kiate au ʻakimoutolu kuo maʻu ʻae ʻilo.
E hoolohe mai oukou ia'u, e ka poe akamai, E haliu mai i ka pepeiao ia'u, e ka poe ike:
3 He ʻoku ʻahiʻahiʻi ʻe he telinga ʻae ngaahi lea, ʻo hangē ʻoku kamata ʻe he ngutu ʻae kai.
No ka mea, ke hoao nei ka pepeiao i na olelo, E like me ke kileo i hoao i ka ai.
4 Ke tau fili kiate kitautolu ʻae fakamaau; ke tau ʻilo ʻiate kitautolu ʻaia ʻoku lelei.
E hoao kakou i ka hooponopono no kakou iho; E ike kakou iwaena o kakou i ka mea maikai.
5 He naʻe pehē ʻe Siope, ‘ʻOku ou māʻoniʻoni: pea kuo toʻo atu ʻe he ʻOtua hoku fakamaau.
No ka mea, ua i mai o Ioba, Ua pono wau: A ua lawe aku ke Akua i kuu hoaponoia.
6 He te u lohiakiʻi ʻa ʻeku totonu? ʻOku taʻefaʻafakamoʻui ʻa hoku lavea ʻi he taʻetalangataʻa.’
E hoopunipuni anei au i kuu pono? O kuu eha me ka hala ole, aole e hoolaia.
7 Ko hai ha tangata ʻoku tatau mo Siope, ʻoku ne inumia ʻae manuki ʻo hangē ko e vai?
Owai ke kanaka e like me Ioba; Ka mea inu i ka olelo hoino me he wai la,
8 ʻAia ʻoku ne ʻalu fakataha mo e kau ngāue kovi, pea ʻeveʻeva mo e kau tangata angahala.
Ka mea e hele pu ana me ka poe e hana ana i ka hewa, E hele ana hoi me na kanaka aia?
9 He naʻe pehē ʻe ia, ‘ʻOku ʻikai hano ʻaonga siʻi ki ha tangata ke ne fakafiefiaʻi ia ʻi he ʻOtua.’
No ka mea, ua i mai ia, Aohe o ke kanaka mea e pono ai, I kona launa pu ana me ke Akua.
10 “Ko ia, fanongo mai kiate au, ʻakimoutolu ʻae kau tangata faʻa ʻilo: ko e kovi, ke mamaʻo ia mei he ʻOtua, pea mo e angahala mei he Māfimafi.
Nolaila e hoolohe ia'u, e na kanaka naauao; Aole ke Akua e hana i ka hewa; Aole hoi ka Mea mana i ka pono ole:
11 He ko e ngāue ʻae tangata te ne totongi kiate ia, pea fakaʻilo ki he tangata kotoa pē ʻo fakatatau ki hono ngaahi hala.
No ka mea, ma ka hana a ke kanaka e ukuia mai ai oia, A e loaa i kela kanaka keia kanaka e like me kona aoao.
12 ʻIo, ko e moʻoni ʻe ʻikai fai kovi ʻae ʻOtua, pea ʻe ʻikai fakahalaʻi ʻae fakamaau ʻe he Māfimafi.
He oiaio no, aole ke Akua e hana i ka hewa, Aole hoi ka Mea mana e hookahuli i ka pono.
13 Ko hai naʻa ne fakanofo ia ke pule ki māmani? Pea ko hai kuo ne ngaohi ʻa māmani kotoa pē?
Owai ka i haawi ia ia i ka honua? A owai ka i hoonoho i ko ke ao nei a pau?
14 Kapau te ne fakatokangaʻi hono finangalo ki he tangata, te ne tānaki kiate ia hono laumālie mo ʻene mānava;
Ina e kau ia i kona naau maluna o ke kanaka, A e lawe aku ia i kona uhane a me kona ea io na la;
15 ʻE mate fakataha ʻae kakano kotoa pē, pea ʻe toe liliu ʻae tangata ko e efu.
E make pu auanei na io a pau, A e hoi hou aku ke kanaka i ka lepo.
16 “Kapau ʻoku ke maʻu ʻae faʻa ʻilo, fanongo eni: fakafanongo ki he leʻo ʻo ʻeku ngaahi lea.
A ina he naauao kou, e hoolohe mai i keia; E haliu mai i ka leo o ka'u olelo.
17 Te ne faʻa pule ʻaia ʻoku fehiʻa ki he totonu? Pea te ke faʻa fakahalaiaʻi ʻaia ʻoku mātuʻaki angatonu?
E alii anei ka mea hoowahawaha i ka pono? A e hoahewa anei oe i ka mea pono loa?
18 He ʻoku ngali ke pehē ki ha tuʻi, ʻOku ke kovi? Pe ki he houʻeiki, ʻOku mou fai kovi?
He pono anei e olelo i ke alii, He hewa kou? A i na'lii, He pono ole oukou?
19 Ka ʻe fēfē kiate ia ʻaia ʻoku ʻikai te ne filifilimānako ki he kakai houʻeiki, pea ʻoku ʻikai lahi hake ʻene tokanga ki he koloaʻia ʻi he masiva? He ko e ngāue ʻa hono nima ʻakinautolu kotoa pē.
Pehea hoi ka mea maliu ole mai i ko na'lii, Aole hoi ia i manao i ka mea waiwai mamua o ka ilihune? No ka mea, o lakou, a pau ka hana a kona lima.
20 Te nau mate fakafokifā pe, pea ʻe mamahi ʻae kakai ʻi he tuʻuapō mālie, pea nau mole atu: pea ʻe fetuku atu ʻae kau mālohi taʻehanima.
E make koke no lakou, Iwaena o ka po e haalulu na kanaka, a e nalo aku; A e laweia'ku ka poe ikaika, me ka lima ole.
21 “He ʻoku ʻi he ngaahi fale ʻoe tangata ʻa hono fofonga, pea ʻoku ne ʻafioʻi ʻa hono ʻalunga kotoa pē.
No ka mea, aia no kona mau maka maluna o na aoao o ke kanaka, A ua nana no i kona mau kapuwai a pau.
22 ʻOku ʻikai ha poʻuli, pe ha malumalu ʻoe mate, ʻe faʻa fakafufū ai ʻe he kau fai kovi ʻakinautolu.
Aohe pouli, aohe malu make, Kahi e pee ai ka poe e hana ana i ka hewa.
23 Koeʻuhi ʻe [ʻi he meʻa ʻoku totonu]; koeʻuhi ke ne fie fakamaau ai mo e ʻOtua.
No ka mea, aole ia e noonoo nui i ka ke kanaka, E kai aku ia ia imua o ke Akua ma ka hookolokolo ana.
24 Te ne lailaiki ʻae kau tangata mālohi tokolahi taʻefaʻalaua, pea fokotuʻu ʻae niʻihi moʻono totongi.
E ulupa oia i na'lii me ka noonoo ole, A e hooku i na mea e ae ma ko lakou hakahaka.
25 Ko ia ʻoku ne ʻilo ʻenau ngaahi ngāue, pea ʻoku ne fulihi ʻakinautolu ʻi he pō, pea ʻoku nau ʻauha ai.
Nolaila, ua ike no ia i ka lakou mau hana, A e hookahuli oia ia lakou i ka po, a e hehiia lakou ilalo.
26 ʻOku ne taaʻi ʻakinautolu ʻo hangē ko e kau tangata fai kovi, ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kakai.
Hoopai no ia ia lakou, no ka mea, ua hewa lakou, Ma kahi o ka poe e nana mai ana;
27 Koeʻuhi naʻa nau tafoki kimui meiate ia, pea ʻikai fie tokanga ki hono ngaahi hala:
No ka mea, ua huli ae lakou mai ona aku la, Aole lakou i noonoo i kona mau aoao a pau.
28 Ko ia ʻoku nau fakahoko ʻae tangi ʻae masiva ke aʻu atu kiate ia, pea ʻoku ne ongoʻi ʻae tangi ʻae mahaki.
Nolaila, e hele ka uwe ana o ka mea hune io na la, A ua hoolohe ia i ka uwe ana o ka poe i hooluhiia.
29 ʻOku foaki ʻe ia ʻae fiemālie, ko hai te ne faʻa fakamamahi? Pea ka fufū ʻe ia hono fofonga, ko hai ʻe faʻa mamata kiate ia? ʻO kapau te ne fai ki ha puleʻanga, pe ki ha tangata pe tokotaha:
A haawi mai ia i ka maha, owai hoi ke hoopilikia mai? A huna oia i kona maka, owai ke ike aku ia ia? Pela no ka lahuikanaka a me ke kanaka hookahi:
30 Koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa pule ʻae mālualoi, telia naʻa fasiaʻi ʻae kakai.
I alii ole ai ke kanaka aia, O hihia auanei na kanaka.
31 “ʻOku taau moʻoni mo e ʻOtua ʻae lea pehē ki ai, kuo u kātaki, ʻe ʻikai te u fakamamahi.
He pono no e olelo aku oe i ke Akua, Ua hoopaiia wau, aole au e hana hewa hou aku.
32 Ko ia ʻoku ʻikai te u ʻilo ke ke ako ia kiate au: kapau kuo u fai angahala, ʻe ʻikai te u toe fai ia.
O ka mea a'u i ike ole ai kau e ao mai ai ia'u; Ina ua hana au i ka hewa, aole au e hana hou.
33 ʻE fakatatau ia koā mo ho loto? Te ne totongi ia, ʻo kapau te ke ʻoua, pe te ke loto ki ai; kae ʻikai ko au: ko ia ke ke tala ʻaia ʻoku ke ʻilo.
Ma kou manao anei kana e uku mai ai, no kou hoole ana, Nau no e koho, aole na'u? Nolaila o ka mea au i ike ai, e olelo mai oe.
34 Ke tala kiate au ʻe he kau tangata faʻa ʻilo, pea ke fanongo kiate au ʻe ha tangata poto.
O na kanaka naauao e olelo mai ia'u, A me ke kanaka akamai e hoolohe mai ia'u.
35 ‘Kuo lea ʻa Siope ʻi he taʻeʻilo, pea ʻoku taʻepoto ʻa ʻene ngaahi lea.
Ua olelo mai o Ioba me ka ike ole, A o kana mau olelo, aole me ka naauao.
36 Ko hoku loto ke fakamaauʻi ʻa Siope ʻo aʻu ki he ngataʻanga, koeʻuhi ko ʻene ngaahi tali ʻo hangē ko e kau tangata angahala.
O kuu makemake, e hoaoia o Ioba a i ka hopena, No kana mau olelo e like me ka na kanaka hewa.
37 He ʻoku ne fakahoko ʻae talangataʻa ki he angahala, ʻoku ne pasipasi hono nima ʻiate kitautolu, ʻo fakalahi ʻene ngaahi lea ki he ʻOtua.”
No ka mea, ua hookui aku ia i ka lawehala me kona hewa, Iwaena o kakou ua pai i kona lima, A ua hoonui i kana mau olelo ku e i ke Akua.
