Job 35
Maori Bible
35 I korero ano a Erihu, i mea,
2 Ki tou whakaaro he tika tenei mau, e mea ana ranei koe, Nui atu toku tika i to te Atua?
3 I mea ai koe, He aha te rawa ki a koe? a, He aha te painga ki ahau, hira ake i te painga me i hara ahau?
4 Maku e whakahoki he kupu ki a koe, ki a koutou ko ou hoa.
5 Kia matatau atu tau titiro ki nga rangi; matakitakina atu hoki nga kapua e tiketike ake na i a koe.
6 Mehemea kua hara koe, ka ahatia ia e tau mahi? A ki te whakanuia au mahi tutu, e aha ana ranei koe ki a ia?
7 Ki te mea he tika tou, ko te aha e hoatu ana e koe ki a ia? Ko te aha ranei a tou ringa e riro ana i a ia?
8 Ka mamae pea tetahi tangata pena i a koe na i tou kino; ka whai painga pea ki tetahi tama a te tangata tou tika.
9 He maha no nga tukinotanga i tangi ai ratou; na te ringaringa o te hunga nui i aue ai ratou kia awhinatia.
10 Kahore ia tetahi e mea ana, Kei hea toku Kaihanga, te Atua, e homai nei i nga waiata i te po?
11 E nui atu nei tana whakaako ki a tatou i tana ki nga kararehe o te whenua, nana hoki i nui ai o tatou mahara i o nga manu o te rangi?
12 Karanga ana ratou i reira, heoi kahore he kupu e whakahokia mai, he mea na te whakapehapeha o te hunga kino.
13 He pono e kore te tekateka noa e whakarangona mai e te Atua, e kore ano hoki e tirohia mai e te Kaha Rawa.
14 Ka iti rawa iho ki te mea koe, kahore koe e kite i a ia, kei tona aroaro te whakarite whakawa; na ka tatari koe ki a ia!
15 Na, kihai nei ia i tae mai i runga i tona riri, kihai ano hoki i aro nui mai ki te whakamanamana;
16 Koia i puaki ai te mangai o Hopa, he mea horihori kau nei; kahore he matauranga o nga kupu e whakamahatia nei e ia.
Job 35
New International Version
Job 35
New International Version
35 Then Elihu said:
2 “Do you think this is just?
You say, ‘I am in the right,(A) not God.’(B)
3 Yet you ask him, ‘What profit is it to me,[a]
and what do I gain by not sinning?’(C)
4 “I would like to reply to you
and to your friends with you.
5 Look up at the heavens(D) and see;
gaze at the clouds so high above you.(E)
6 If you sin, how does that affect him?
If your sins are many, what does that do to him?(F)
7 If you are righteous, what do you give to him,(G)
or what does he receive(H) from your hand?(I)
8 Your wickedness only affects humans like yourself,(J)
and your righteousness only other people.(K)
9 “People cry out(L) under a load of oppression;(M)
they plead for relief from the arm of the powerful.(N)
10 But no one says, ‘Where is God my Maker,(O)
who gives songs(P) in the night,(Q)
11 who teaches(R) us(S) more than he teaches[b] the beasts of the earth
and makes us wiser than[c] the birds in the sky?’
12 He does not answer(T) when people cry out
because of the arrogance(U) of the wicked.(V)
13 Indeed, God does not listen to their empty plea;
the Almighty pays no attention to it.(W)
14 How much less, then, will he listen
when you say that you do not see him,(X)
that your case(Y) is before him
and you must wait for him,(Z)
15 and further, that his anger never punishes(AA)
and he does not take the least notice of wickedness.[d](AB)
16 So Job opens his mouth with empty talk;(AC)
without knowledge he multiplies words.”(AD)
