1 Afei, Elihu kaa sɛ:
Pea naʻe fai pe ʻe Elihu ʻa ʻene lea, ʻo ne pehē,
2 “Wogye di sɛ yei fata? Woka sɛ, ‘Onyankopɔn bɛtwitwa agye me.’
“ʻOku ke mahalo ʻoku totonu eni, ʻa hoʻo lea ʻo pehē, ‘Ko ʻeku māʻoniʻoni ʻoku lahi ki he ʻOtua?’
3 Nanso wobisa no sɛ, ‘Mfasoɔ bɛn na mɛnya, na sɛ manyɛ bɔne a, mfasoɔ bɛn na mɛnya?’
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?’
4 “Mepɛ sɛ mebua wo ne wo nnamfonom nyinaa.
Te u tala kiate koe, mo kinautolu ʻoku kaumeʻa mo koe.
5 Ma wʼani so kyerɛ ɔsoro na hwɛ; hwɛ omununkum a ɛwɔ wʼatifi ɔsorosoro nohoa.
Sio ki he ngaahi langi, ʻo mamata; pea vakai ki he ngaahi ʻao ʻaia ʻoku māʻolunga hake ʻiate koe.
6 Sɛ woyɛ bɔne a, ɛkwan bɛn so na ɛsakyera Onyankopɔn? Mpo sɛ wo bɔne dɔɔso a, nsunsuansoɔ bɛn na ɛnya wo ne so?
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?
7 Sɛ wotene a, ɛdeɛn na wode ma noɔ anaasɛ ɛdeɛn na ɔnya firi wo nsam?
Kapau ʻoku ke māʻoniʻoni, ko e hā ʻoku ke foaki kiate ia? Pe ko e hā ia ʻoku ne maʻu ʻi ho nima?
8 Wʼamumuyɛ pira onipa a ɔte sɛ wo na wo tenenee pira nnipa mma nko ara.
ʻE kovi nai hoʻo angahala ki he tangata ʻo hangē ko koe; pea ʻe ʻaonga nai hoʻo māʻoniʻoni ki he foha ʻoe tangata.
9 “Nnipa su ɛberɛ a wɔwɔ nhyɛsoɔ ase; na wɔsrɛ mmoa firi deɛ ɔwɔ tumi nsam.
“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.
10 Nanso, obi mmisa sɛ, ‘Ɛhe na Onyankopɔn, me Yɛfoɔ no wɔ, deɛ ɔma nnwom anadwo no,
Ka ʻoku ʻikai pehē ʻe ha taha, ‘Kofaʻā ia ʻae ʻOtua ko hoku tupuʻanga, ʻaia ʻoku ne foaki ʻae ngaahi hiva ʻi he pō;
11 deɛ ɔkyerɛ yɛn nimdeɛ bebree sene asase so mmoa na ɔma yɛhunu nyansa sene ewiem nnomaa?’
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?’
12 Sɛ nnipa su team a, ɔmmua, amumuyɛfoɔ ahantan enti.
ʻOku nau tangi ʻi ai, ka ʻoku ʻikai lea ha tokotaha, ko e meʻa ʻi he laukau ʻae kau tangata kovi.
13 Ampa ara Onyankopɔn rentie wɔn nkotosrɛ hunu no; na Otumfoɔ remmu.
Ko e moʻoni ʻe ʻikai fanongo ʻae ʻOtua ki he launoa, pea ʻe ʻikai tokanga ki ai ʻae Māfimafi.
14 Woka sɛ wonhunu no, nanso sɛ wotwɛn no a, ɔde atɛntenenee bɛba enti ɛsɛ sɛ wotwɛn no.
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.
15 Bio, woka sɛ nʼabufuo mmfa asotweɛ mma na nʼani nni amumuyɛsɛm akyi pii.
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:
16 Enti Hiob bue nʼano ka nsɛm hunu; nimdeɛ a ɔnni enti, ɔkeka nsɛm bebree.”
Ko ia ʻoku mafaʻa taʻeʻaonga ai ʻae ngutu ʻo Siope; ʻoku ne fakalahi ʻae ngaahi lea ʻi he taʻeʻilo.
