Hiob 22
1 Na Temanni Elifas buae se,
Pea naʻe toki tali ʻe Elifasi mei Timani, ʻo ne pehē,
2 “Onyankopɔn benya onipa so mfaso ana? Mpo onyansafo so bɛba no mfaso ana?
‘ʻE faʻa ʻaonga ʻae tangata ki he ʻOtua,’ ʻo hangē ʻoku ʻaonga ʻaia ʻoku poto kiate ia pe?
3 Sɛ woyɛ ɔtreneeni a, anigye bɛn na Otumfo no benya? Sɛ wʼakwan ho nni asɛm a, mfaso bɛn na obenya?
He ʻoku ʻaonga ki he Māfimafi ʻa hoʻo māʻoniʻoni? Pe ʻaonga ki ai ʻa hoʻo fakahaohaoa ho ngaahi ʻaluʻanga?
4 “Wo kronkronyɛ nti na ɔka wʼanim na ɔbɔ wo kwaadu ana?
He te ne tautea koe ko ʻene manavahē kiate koe? Te ne fai koā mo koe ʻae fakamaau?
5 Ɛnyɛ wʼamumɔyɛ na ɛso? Ɛnyɛ wo bɔne na ɛdɔɔso dodo?
ʻIkai ʻoku lahi ʻaupito hoʻo angahala? Pea taʻengata mo hoʻo ngaahi hia?
6 Wopɛɛ bammɔ fii wo nuanom nkyɛn a emfi hwee so; wopaa nnipa ho ntama ma wɔdaa adagyaw.
He kuo ke maʻu taʻetotonu ʻae totongi mei ho kāinga, pea kuo ke faʻao mei he telefua honau kofu.
7 Woamma abrɛfo nsu annom na wode aduan kamee nea ɔkɔm de no,
Naʻe ʻikai te ke fakainua ʻae vaivai ʻaki ʻae vai, pea kuo ke taʻofi ʻae mā mei he fiekaia.
8 nanso na woyɛ obi a ɔwɔ tumi, wɔ nsase, onuonyamfo a ɔte so.
Ka naʻe ʻoe tangata mālohi ʻae fonua; pea nofo ai ʻae tangata ongoongolelei.
9 Wopam akunafo ma wɔkɔɔ nsapan na womaa ayisaa nso ahoɔden sae.
Kuo ke fekau atu taʻehameʻa ʻae kau fefine kuo mate honau husepāniti, pea kuo fesiʻi ʻae nima ʻoe kau tamai mate.
10 Ɛno nti na mfiri atwa wo ho ahyia, na amanehunu a ɛba ntɛm so bɔ wo hu yi,
Ko ia kuo kāpui ai koe ʻe he ngaahi tauhele, pea ke puputuʻu ʻi he manavahē kuo fakafokifā;
11 ɛno nti na sum kabii aduru a wunhu ade, na asorɔkye akata wo so yi.
Pea ko e fakapoʻuli ke ʻoua naʻa ke mamata, pea ʻufiʻufi koe ʻe he ngaahi vai lahi.
12 “So Onyankopɔn nni ɔsoro akyirikyiri ana? Hwɛ sɛnea ɔsoro akyirikyiri nsoromma korɔn!
“ʻIkai ʻoku ʻi he langi ʻi ʻolunga ʻae ʻOtua? Pea ke vakai ki hono māʻolunga faufau ʻoe ngaahi fetuʻu lahi!
13 Nanso woka se, ‘Dɛn na Onyankopɔn nim? Sum yi mu na obu atɛn ana?
Ka ke pehē ʻe koe, ‘ʻOku ʻilo fēfē ʻe he ʻOtua? Pea ʻe faʻa fakamaau ʻe ia ʻi he loto ʻao fakapoʻuli?
14 Omununkum kabii akata nʼanim nti onhu yɛn bere a ɔnenam ɔsoro kontonkurowi mu.’
Ko e ʻufiʻufi kiate ia ʻae ngaahi ʻao matolu, ʻaia ʻoku ʻikai te ne mamata ai; pea ʻoku hāʻele pe ia ʻi he hāʻeleʻanga ʻi he langi.’
15 So wobɛkɔ so afa ɔkwan dedaw a abɔnefo anantew so no so ana?
He kuo ke fakaʻilongaʻi ʻe koe ʻae hala motuʻa, naʻe fou ai ʻae kakai angahala?
16 Wɔpraa wɔn kɔe ansa na wɔn bere reso, na nsuyiri hohoroo wɔn fapem.
ʻAkinautolu naʻe tuʻusi hifo ʻi he teʻeki hoko honau kuonga, ʻakinautolu naʻe lōmaki honau tuʻunga ʻaki ʻae vai:
17 Na wɔka kyerɛɛ Onyankopɔn se, ‘Gyaa yɛn! Dɛn na Otumfo betumi ayɛ yɛn?’
ʻAkinautolu naʻe pehē ki he ʻOtua, ‘ʻAlu ʻiate kimautolu:’ pea, ‘Ko e hā ʻe faʻa fai ʻe he Māfimafi maʻanautolu?’
18 Nanso ɛyɛ ɔno na ɔde nnepa hyɛɛ wɔn afi mu, nti metwe me ho fi amumɔyɛfo afotu ho.
Ka naʻa ne fakapito ʻaki ʻae ngaahi meʻa lelei honau ngaahi fale: ka ʻoku mamaʻo ʻiate au ʻae fakakaukau ʻoe angahala.
19 Atreneefo hu wɔn asehwe ma wɔn ani gye; na wɔn a wɔn ho nni asɛm serew wɔn ka se,
ʻOku mamata ki ai ʻae māʻoniʻoni, pea fiefia: pea ʻoku kata manuki kiate kinautolu ʻe he taʻeangahala.
20 ‘Wɔasɛe yɛn atamfo, na ogya ahyew wɔn agyapade.’
‘Koeʻuhi naʻe ʻikai tuʻusi ʻetau koloa, ka ko honau toe ʻoku fakaʻauha ʻe he afi.’
21 “Fa wo ho ma Onyankopɔn na nya asomdwoe wɔ ne mu; saa ɔkwan yi so na yiyedi bɛfa ayɛ wo kyɛfa.
“Fai ke ke ʻiloʻi ia, pea ke melino: pea ko ia ʻe hoko ai ʻae lelei kiate koe.
22 Tie akwankyerɛ a efi nʼanom, na fa ne nsɛm sie wo koma mu.
ʻOku ou kole kiate koe, ke ke maʻu ʻae fono mei hono ngutu, pea ke faʻo ki ho loto ʻa ʻene ngaahi folofola.
23 Sɛ wosan kɔ Otumfo no nkyɛn a obegye wo ato mu bio: sɛ wuyi amumɔyɛsɛm fi wo ntamadan mu
Kapau te ke tafoki ki he Māfimafi, ʻe langa hake koe, pea te ke tukuange ke mamaʻo ʻae hia mei ho ngaahi fale.
24 na wotow wo sika mpɔw gu mfutuma mu ne Ofir sikakɔkɔɔ gu abotan a ɛwɔ abon mu no so a,
Pea te ke toki fokotuʻu ʻae koloa ʻo hangē ko e efu, mo e koula ʻo Ofeli ʻo hangē ko e ngaahi maka teka ʻoe tafeʻanga vai.
25 ɛno de Otumfo bɛyɛ wo sikakɔkɔɔ ɔbɛyɛ dwetɛ ankasa ama wo.
ʻIo, ʻe hoko ʻae Māfimafi ko ho fakaū, pea te ke maʻu ʻo lahi ʻae siliva.
26 Afei nokware wubenya anigye wɔ Otumfo mu na wobɛpagyaw wʼani akyerɛ Onyankopɔn.
He te ke toki fiefia ʻi he Māfimafi, pea hanga hake ho mata ki he ʻOtua.
27 Wobɛbɔ no mpae, na obetie wo, na wubedi wo bɔhyɛ so.
Te ke fai haʻo lotu kiate ia, pea te ne ongoʻi koe, pea te ke fai hoʻo ngaahi fuakava.
28 Nea woyɛ wʼadwene sɛ wobɛyɛ no bɛba mu, na hann bɛtɔ wʼakwan so.
Te ke tuʻutuʻuni foki ha meʻa, pea ʻe fakamoʻoni ia kiate koe: pea ʻe ulo ʻae maama ki ho ngaahi hala.
29 Sɛ nnipa hwe ase na woka se, ‘Ma wɔn so!’ a, obegye wɔn a wɔahwe ase no nkwa.
ʻOka ai ha tōkilalo, te ke toki pehē, ‘ʻOku ai ʻae hakeakiʻi;’ pea ʻe fakamoʻui ʻe ia ʻae angavaivai.
30 Obegye abɔnefo mpo, ɔnam wo nsa a ɛho nni fi so begye wɔn.”
ʻE fakahaofi ʻe ia ʻae fonua motu ʻoe taʻeangahala: pea ʻoku hao ia ʻi he māʻoniʻoni ʻo ho nima.”
