Siope 35
1 Pea naʻe fai pe ʻe Elihu ʻa ʻene lea, ʻo ne pehē,
Bongo Eliwu alobaki:
2 “ʻOku ke mahalo ʻoku totonu eni, ʻa hoʻo lea ʻo pehē, ‘Ko ʻeku māʻoniʻoni ʻoku lahi ki he ʻOtua?’
« Boni, okanisi ete yango ezali sembo? Olobi: ‹ Nazali sembo liboso ya Nzambe. ›
3 He naʻa ke pehē, ‘Ko e hā hono ʻaonga kiate koe? Pea ko e hā ʻae totongi te u maʻu [ʻo kapau ʻe fakamaʻa ]au mei heʻeku angahala?’
Nzokande, ozali koloba: ‹ Nakozwa nini, litomba nini nakozwa soki nasali masumu te? ›
4 Te u tala kiate koe, mo kinautolu ʻoku kaumeʻa mo koe.
Nalingi kopesa yo eyano, yo elongo na baninga na yo.
5 Sio ki he ngaahi langi, ʻo mamata; pea vakai ki he ngaahi ʻao ʻaia ʻoku māʻolunga hake ʻiate koe.
Tombola miso na likolo mpe tala; mona ndenge mapata ezali likolo na yo.
6 Kapau ʻoku ke fai angahala, ko e hā ʻoku ke fai kiate ia? Pea kapau kuo tupu ʻo lahi ʻa hoʻo talangataʻa, ko e hā ʻoku ke fai kiate ia?
Soki osali masumu, ekosala Nzambe nini? Soki masumu na yo ezali ebele, ekosala Ye nini?
7 Kapau ʻoku ke māʻoniʻoni, ko e hā ʻoku ke foaki kiate ia? Pe ko e hā ia ʻoku ne maʻu ʻi ho nima?
Soki ozali sembo, okopesa Ye nini to akozwa nini na loboko na yo?
8 ʻE kovi nai hoʻo angahala ki he tangata ʻo hangē ko koe; pea ʻe ʻaonga nai hoʻo māʻoniʻoni ki he foha ʻoe tangata.
Mabe na yo ekokomela kaka bazalani na yo, bosembo na yo ezali na litomba kaka epai ya bana na bato.
9 “Ko e meʻa ʻi he lahi ʻoe ngaahi meʻa fakamālohi ʻoku tangi ai ʻae kau fakamālohia, ʻoku nau tangi kalanga ʻi he nima ʻoe mālohi.
Bato bazali kolela na se ya mokumba ya minyoko, bazali koganga na se ya motema makasi ya bato minene.
10 Ka ʻoku ʻikai pehē ʻe ha taha, ‘Kofaʻā ia ʻae ʻOtua ko hoku tupuʻanga, ʻaia ʻoku ne foaki ʻae ngaahi hiva ʻi he pō;
Kasi moto moko te azali koloba: ‹ Nzambe Mokeli na ngai, Ye oyo apesaka banzembo ya esengo na butu,
11 ʻAia ʻoku ako lahi hake kiate kitautolu ʻi he ngaahi manu ʻoe fonua, ʻo ne fakapoto lahi hake ʻakitautolu ʻi he ngaahi manupuna ʻoe ʻatā?’
Ye oyo ateyaka biso koleka banyama ya mokili mpe akomisaka biso mayele koleka bandeke ya likolo, azali wapi? ›
12 ʻOku nau tangi ʻi ai, ka ʻoku ʻikai lea ha tokotaha, ko e meʻa ʻi he laukau ʻae kau tangata kovi.
Ata bagangi, Nzambe akoyanola te, mpo na lolendo ya bato mabe.
13 Ko e moʻoni ʻe ʻikai fanongo ʻae ʻOtua ki he launoa, pea ʻe ʻikai tokanga ki ai ʻae Māfimafi.
Pamba te, Nzambe ayokaka te maloba na bango ya pamba, Nkolo-Na-Nguya-Nyonso azalaka ata na bokebi na yango te.
14 Naʻa ke lea, ʻo pehē, ‘ʻE ʻikai te ke mamata kiate ia, ka ʻoku ʻi hono ʻao ʻae fakamaau, ko ia ke ke falala kiate ia.
Nzokande, yo ozali komeka koloba ete ozali komona Ye te, ete ozwi nanu eyano te na kolela na yo epai na Ye.
15 Ka koeʻuhi ʻoku ʻikai pehē eni, ko ia kuo ne ʻaʻahi ai ʻi hono houhau; ka ʻoku ʻikai te ne ʻilo ia ʻi he mamahi lahi:
Mpe sik’oyo, soki kanda ya Nzambe eyei nanu likolo na yo te mpe soki Ye azali nanu kobosana maloba na yo ya soni,
16 Ko ia ʻoku mafaʻa taʻeʻaonga ai ʻae ngutu ʻo Siope; ʻoku ne fakalahi ʻae ngaahi lea ʻi he taʻeʻilo.
elingi koloba ete yo, Yobo, ofungoli monoko na yo kaka na pamba mpe otondisi yango na maloba ya bozoba. »
