< Hiob 13 >
1 “Mʼani ahu eyinom nyinaa, mʼaso ate, na ate ase.
Nana, kua kitea katoatia tenei e toku kanohi, kua rongo toku taringa, kua mohio.
2 Nea wunim no, me nso minim; wonyɛ abomfiaa mma me.
Ko ta koutou e mohio na, ko taku ano tena e mohio nei: kahore hoki ahau i hoki iho i a koutou.
3 Nanso mepɛ sɛ mekasa kyerɛ Otumfo no na mekyerɛkyerɛ mʼasɛm mu kyerɛ Onyankopɔn.
Ina, e whai kupu ano ahau ki te Kaha Rawa: a e hiahia ana ki te korerorero ki te Atua.
4 Mode atoro mmom na asra me ho; mo nyinaa moyɛ ayaresafo a munsi hwee!
Ko koutou ia, he hunga tito i te teka, he rata horihori noa koutou katoa.
5 Sɛ mobɛyɛ komm koraa a ɛno na ɛbɛyɛ nyansa ama mo!
Te pai na, me i mutu rawa a koutou korero! Ko to koutou whakaaro nui hoki tena.
6 Afei muntie mʼano asɛm; muntie mʼanoyi.
Tena ra, whakarongo mai ki taku tautohe, maharatia nga whawhai a oku ngutu.
7 Mobɛka amumɔyɛsɛm ama Onyankopɔn ana? Mobɛka nnaadaasɛm ama no ana?
Me tautoko ta te Atua ki te kupu kino? me tautoko ranei tana ki te tinihanga?
8 Mobɛkyea mo aso ama no? Mobɛka Onyankopɔn asɛm ama no ana?
Ka whakapai kanohi koia koutou ki a ia? Ma koutou ranei ta te Atua tautohe?
9 Sɛ ɔhwehwɛ mo mu a, ebesi mo yiye ana? Mubetumi adaadaa no sɛnea modaadaa nnipa no ana?
He pai ranei kia rapua ta koutou e ia? E maminga ranei koutou ki a ia, e pera me tetahi ka maminga nei ki te tangata?
10 Sɛ mokyeaa mo aso wɔ kokoa mu a, sɛnea ɛte biara, ɔbɛka mo anim
He pono ka whakahe ia ki a koutou ki te whakapai puku koutou i te kanohi.
11 Nʼanuonyam mmɔ mo hu ana? Ne ho suro ntɔ mo so ana?
E kore ranei koutou e mataku ki tona nui? E kore ranei te wehi ki a ia e tau ki a koutou?
12 Mo kasatɔmmɛ yɛ mmɛbu a ɛte sɛ nsõ; mo anoyi yɛ dɔte twann anoyi.
Ko a koutou pepeha nunui he whakatauki no te pungarehu, ko o koutou parepare he parepare paru.
13 “Monyɛ komm mma menkasa; na nea ɛbɛyɛ me biara mmra me so.
Kati te korero, waiho noa iho ahau, kia korero ai ahau, ahakoa pa mai te aha ki ahau.
14 Adɛn nti na mede me ho to amane mu na mede me nkwa to me nsam?
He aha oku kikokiko i ngaua ai e oku niho? He aha toku wairua i waiho ai e ahau i roto i toku ringa?
15 Ɛwɔ mu sɛ okum me de, nanso ne so na mʼani bɛda; ampa ara medi mʼakwan ho adanse wɔ nʼanim.
Ahakoa whakamate noa ia i ahau, ka tatari tonu ahau ki a ia: otiia ka mau tonu ahau ki oku ara i tona aroaro.
16 Nokware, eyi na ɛbɛyɛ me nkwagye, efisɛ nea onsuro Onyankopɔn no rentumi nkɔ nʼanim!
Ko tenei hoki hei oranga moku; e kore hoki te tangata atuakore e tae mai ki tona aroaro.
17 Muntie me nsɛm yi yiye; monyɛ aso mma nea meka.
Ata whakarongo ki aku korero: kia anga mai o koutou taringa ki taku e whakapuaki nei.
18 Afei a masiesie me nkurobɔ yi, minim sɛ medi bem.
Na kua takoto taku mo te whakawa; e mohio ana ahau he tika ahau.
19 Obi betumi abɔ me kwaadu ana? Sɛ ɛte saa de a, anka mɛyɛ komm na mawu.
Ko wai ia hei totohe ki ahau? Ka whakarongo puku hoki ahau aianei, a ka hemo ahau.
20 “Onyankopɔn, yɛ saa nneɛma abien yi pɛ ma me, na afei meremfa me ho nhintaw wo:
Engari kaua nga mea e rua e meatia mai ki ahau; katahi ahau ka kore e huna i ahau i tou mata.
21 Yi wo nsa fi me so kɔ akyirikyiri, na gyae wo ho hu a wode hunahuna me no.
Kia matara atu tou ringa ki tawhiti i ahau; a kaua ahau e whakawehia e te mataku ki a koe.
22 Ɛno de, samena me na mɛba, anaa ma menkasa na bua me.
Ko reira, mau e karanga, a maku e whakao atu; maku ranei e korero, a mau e whakahoki kupu mai ki ahau.
23 Mfomso ne bɔne dodow ahe na mayɛ? Kyerɛ me me mfomso ne me bɔne.
Ka hia ra oku kino, oku hara? Meinga ahau kia matau ki toku he me toku hara.
24 Adɛn nti na wode wʼanim asie me na wudwen sɛ meyɛ wo tamfo?
He aha tou mata i huna ai e koe? He aha ahau i kiia ai e koe he hoariri?
25 Wobɛyɛ ahaban a mframa rebɔ no ayayade ana? Wobɛtaa ntɛtɛ a awo ana?
E kapokapohia ranei e koe te pakawha e puhia haeretia ana? E whaia ranei e koe te papapa maroke?
26 Wokyerɛw sobo a ɛyɛ yaw tia me, na woka me mmabunmmere mu bɔne nyinaa gu me so.
Kei te tuhituhi na hoki koe i nga mea kawa moku, e mea ana hoki kia riro mai i ahau nga he o toku taitamarikitanga.
27 Wode nkyehama gu mʼanan; wohwɛ mʼanammɔnkwan nyinaa so yiye na wode agyiraehyɛde ayeyɛ mʼanammɔn mu.
Karapitia iho e koe oku waewae ki te rakau, he mea tohu nau oku ara katoa, a he mea tuhi nau oku takahanga waewae tawhio noa:
28 “Enti onipa nkwa sa te sɛ ade a aporɔw, te sɛ atade a nwewee adi.
Ahakoa toku rite kei te mea pirau, e memeha noa ana, kei te kakahu e kainga ana e te purehurehu.
