Job 24

24:1
He aha nga wa te whakapurangatia ai e te Kaha Rawa? A he aha hoki te hunga e mohio ana ki a ia te kite ai i ona ra?
Why, seeing times are not hidden from the Almighty, do they that know him not see his days?
24:2
Tera etahi e whakaneke atu ana i nga rohe; e kahakina ana e ratou nga kahui, whangaia iho e ratou.
Some remove the landmarks; they violently take away flocks, and feed thereof.
24:3
E aia atu ana e ratou te kaihe a nga pani, e tangohia ana hei taunaha te kau a te pouaru.
They drive away the ass of the fatherless, they take the widow's ox for a pledge.
24:4
Whakapekaia ketia ana e ratou nga rawakore i te ara: huihui ana nga ware o te whenua, piri ana.
They turn the needy out of the way: the poor of the earth hide themselves together.
24:5
Nana, rite tonu ratou ki te kaihe mahoao i te koraha, haere atu ana ki ta ratou mahi, e whai ana ki te kai; hei kai te koraha ma ratou, ma a ratou tamariki.
Behold, as wild asses in the desert, go they forth to their work; rising betimes for a prey: the wilderness yieldeth food for them and for their children.
24:6
E kotia ana e ratou ta ratou witi i te mara; e kohia ana e ratou nga waina a te hunga tutu.
They reap every one his corn in the field: and they gather the vintage of the wicked.
24:7
E takoto tahanga ana ratou i te po roa, kahore he kakahu, kahore hoki he hipoki i te maeke.
They cause the naked to lodge without clothing, that they have no covering in the cold.
24:8
Maku iho ratou i te awha o nga maunga, a, ka kore he rerenga, ka awhi i te kamaka.
They are wet with the showers of the mountains, and embrace the rock for want of a shelter.
24:9
Tera te hunga, e tangohia mai ana e ratou te pani i te u, e tango ana i ta te rawakore taunaha:
They pluck the fatherless from the breast, and take a pledge of the poor.
24:10
Koia ka haere tahanga ratou, kahore he kakahu, a, i te matekai ka hari i nga paihere witi;
They cause him to go naked without clothing, and they take away the sheaf from the hungry;
24:11
E mahi nei i te hinu i roto i nga taiepa a aua tangata; e takahi nei i a ratou poka waina, me te mate i te wai.
Which make oil within their walls, and tread their winepresses, and suffer thirst.
24:12
E aue ana nga tangata i roto i te pa, e karanga ana hoki te wairua o te hunga i patua: kahore ano ia a te Atua whakakuware ki a ratou.
Men groan from out of the city, and the soul of the wounded crieth out: yet God layeth not folly to them.
24:13
No te hunga ratou e whakakeke ana ki te marama; kahore o ratou mohio ki ona ara, e kore ano ratou e noho ki ona huarahi.
They are of those that rebel against the light; they know not the ways thereof, nor abide in the paths thereof.
24:14
E maranga ana te kaikohuru i te mea ka marama, patua iho e ia te ware me te rawakore; a i te po ka pena ia i te tahae.
The murderer rising with the light killeth the poor and needy, and in the night is as a thief.
24:15
E tatari ana te kanohi o te tangata puremu kia nehunehu iho, e mea ana, E kore te kanohi e kite i ahau: e huna ana ia i tona mata.
The eye also of the adulterer waiteth for the twilight, saying, No eye shall see me: and disguiseth his face.
24:16
E keri ana ratou i nga whare i te pouri: i te awatea e pa ana ratou i a ratou: kahore ratou e mohio ki te marama.
In the dark they dig through houses, which they had marked for themselves in the daytime: they know not the light.
24:17
Ki a ratou katoa hoki e rite ana te ata ki te atarangi o te mate; e matau ana hoki ratou ki nga whakamataku o te atarangi o te mate.
For the morning is to them even as the shadow of death: if one know them, they are in the terrors of the shadow of death.
24:18
Tere tonu ia ki runga ki te mata o nga wai; he mea kanga to ratou wahi i runga i te whenua: e kore ia e anga mai ki te ara ki nga mara waina.
He is swift as the waters; their portion is cursed in the earth: he beholdeth not the way of the vineyards.
24:19
Ka riro nga wai o te hukarere i te tauraki, i te wera: te hunga hara ano hoki i te reinga.
Drought and heat consume the snow waters: so doth the grave those which have sinned.
24:20
Ka wareware te kopu ki a ia; he kai reka ia ma te iro; e kore ia e maharatia i muri iho; ka whati hoki te kino ano he rakau.
The womb shall forget him; the worm shall feed sweetly on him; he shall be no more remembered; and wickedness shall be broken as a tree.
24:21
E tukinotia ana e ia te pakoko kihai nei i whanau; kahore hoki ana mahi pai ki te pouaru.
He evil entreateth the barren that beareth not: and doeth not good to the widow.
24:22
E kumea atu ana hoki e ia nga marohirohi ki tona kaha: ka whakatika ake ia, kahore he tangata e u ki te ora.
He draweth also the mighty with his power: he riseth up, and no man is sure of life.
24:23
I homai ano e te Atua ki a ratou kia au te noho, a ka whakawhirinaki ratou ki reira; kei runga hoki i o ratou huarahi ona kanohi.
Though it be given him to be in safety, whereon he resteth; yet his eyes are upon their ways.
24:24
E whakanekehia ake ana ratou; otiia wahi iti nei, kua kahore noa iho ratou; ae ra, ka whakaitia ratou, ka whakawateatia atu pera i era atu katoa, a ka tapahia atu ano ko nga kauru o nga puku witi.
They are exalted for a little while, but are gone and brought low; they are taken out of the way as all other, and cut off as the tops of the ears of corn.
24:25
Ki te mea he teka tenei ko wai hei whakateka ki ahau, hei whakakahore i taku korero?
And if it be not so now, who will make me a liar, and make my speech nothing worth?
