Ioba 26
1 A LAILA olelo mai la o Ioba, i mai la,
But Job answered and said,
2 Pehea la oe i kokua mai ai i ka mea nawaliwali? A hooikaika mai hoi oe i ka lima ikaika ole?
How have you helped him that is without power? how save you the arm that has no strength?
3 Pehea la oe i ao mai ai i ka mea ike ole? A hoike nui mai hoi oe i ka noeau?
How have you counceled him that has no wisdom? and how have you plentifully declared the thing as it is?
4 Ia wai anei oe i hai aku i na olelo? Nowai ka hanu i puka ae mai ou mai la?
To whom have you uttered words? and whose spirit came from you?
5 O na mea i make, ua haalulu lakou mai lalo mai, O na wai a me kolaila poe e noho ana.
Dead things are formed from under the waters, and the inhabitants thereof.
Hell is naked before him, and destruction has no covering. (Sheol h7585)
7 Ua hohola aku ia i ke kukuluakau maluna o ka neoneo, Ua kau aku i ka honua maluna o ka mea ole.
He stretches out the north over the empty place, and hangs the earth on nothing.
8 Ua hoopaa oia i na wai maloko o na ao ona, Aole i nahae ke ao malalo o lakou.
He binds up the waters in his thick clouds; and the cloud is not rent under them.
9 Ua uhi no ia i ke alo o kona nohoalii, Ua hohola aku i kona ao maluna ona.
He holds back the face of his throne, and spreads his cloud on it.
10 Ua hoopuni oia i na wai i ka palena, A hiki i kahi e pau ai ka malamalama iloko o ka pouli.
He has compassed the waters with bounds, until the day and night come to an end.
11 O na kia o ka lani ua haalulu, A weliweli hoi i kona papa ana mai.
The pillars of heaven tremble and are astonished at his reproof.
12 Ua hoomalielie oia i ke kai ma kona mana, A ma kona naauao, hahau iho ia i kona kiekie.
He divides the sea with his power, and by his understanding he smites through the proud.
13 Ma kona Uhane ua hoonani oia i na lani; Na kona lima i hana i ka nahesa e lele ana.
By his spirit he has garnished the heavens; his hand has formed the crooked serpent.
14 Aia hoi, oia kekahi mau mea o kona mau aoao; Nani hoi ka uuku o ka mea i loheia nona! A o ka hekili o kona mana owai la ka mea e ike pono?
See, these are parts of his ways: but how little a portion is heard of him? but the thunder of his power who can understand?
