Baibal Olcim (Matupi Chin)
1“But now, O Job, hear my speech, and listen to all my words.
1Job, ka olthui hnatun dae lamtah ka ol boeih he hnakaeng thil laeh.
2Behold, I will open my mouth; my address is on the tip of my tongue.
2Ka ka ong coeng he. Ka ka khuikah ka lai loh a thui.
3My words are from an upright heart, and my lips speak sincerely what I know.
3Ka ol he ka lungbuei dueng lamkah tih ka hmuilai kah mingnah loh cimphan la a thui.
4The Spirit of God has made me, and the breath of the Almighty gives me life.
4Pathen Mueihla loh kai n'saii tih Tlungthang kah hiil loh kai n'hing sak.
5Refute me if you can; prepare your case and confront me.
5Kai thuung hamla na coeng mak atah tawn uh lamtah ka mikhmuh ah pai laeh.
6I am just like you before God; I was also formed from clay.
6Pathen taengah kai he nang ka bangla ka om tih kai khaw dikpo lamkah ni m'pet.
7Surely no fear of me should terrify you; nor will my hand be heavy upon you.
7Kai he mueirhih moenih nang n'let sak mako. Ka kut long khaw nang n'nan thil mahpawh.
8Surely you have spoken in my hearing, and I have heard these very words:
8Tedae ka hna ah na thui tih olthui ol khaw ka yaak.
9‘I am pure, without transgression; I am clean, with no iniquity in me.
9“Ka cil tih boekoek ka khueh moenih. Ka caih tih kai taengah thaesainah om moenih.
10Yet God finds occasions against me; He counts me as His enemy.
10Te cakhaw kai taengkah noihhainah a hmuh vaengah kai amah kah thunkha bangla a moeh.
11He puts my feet in the stocks; He watches over all my paths.’
11Ka kho he hloong dongah a buen tih ka caehlong boeih a dawn,” na ti.
12Behold, you are not right in this matter. I will answer you, for God is greater than man.
12Tedae na tang moenih he. Pathen he hlanghing lakah a len dongah nang te kan doo.
13Why do you complain to Him that He answers nothing a man asks?
13Balae tih amah te na ho. A ol te boeih n'doo moenih ta.
14For God speaks in one way and in another, yet no one notices.
14Pathen loh pakhat la a thui dae a hmuhming pawt atah hnavoei la a thui.
15In a dream, in a vision in the night, when deep sleep falls upon men as they slumber on their beds,
15Ih loh hlang a hnah vaengkah khoyin olphong mueimang ah khaw, thingkong dongkah a ngam vaengah khaw,
16He opens their ears and terrifies them with warnings
16Hlang hna te a khui sak tih amih kah rhalrhingnah neh a daeng pah.
17to turn a man from wrongdoing and keep him from pride,
17Hlang loh a khoboe lamkah a nong sak tih hlang lamkah koevoeinah a khuk pah.
18to preserve his soul from the Pit and his life from perishing by the sword.
18A hinglu te vaam khui lamloh, a hingnah te pumcumnah loh a paan khui lamkah a hoeptlang.
19A man is also chastened on his bed with pain and constant distress in his bones,
19A thingkong dongah nganboh neh a tluung tih tuituknah loh a rhuhrhong boeih te phat a thuek pah.
20so that he detests his bread, and his soul loathes his favorite food.
20A hingnah loh buh te khaw a hinglu loh hoehhamnah maeh khaw a lawt pah.
21His flesh wastes away from sight, and his hidden bones protrude.
21A saa te caphoei cuk bangla mueihmuh ah a khah tih a rhuh a hmuh pawt khaw a ming sak.
22He draws near to the Pit, and his life to the messengers of death.
22A hinglu loh vaam khuila, a hingnah te aka duek rhoek taengla pawk.
23Yet if there is a messenger on his side, one mediator in a thousand, to tell a man what is right for him,
23Anih kah duengnah te hlang taengah aka puen la thawngkhat lamkah pakhat ngawn tah amah taengah puencawn oldoe om khaming.
24to be gracious to him and say, ‘Spare him from going down to the Pit; I have found his ransom,’
24Te dongah anih te a rhen mai vetih, 'Tlansum ka dang tih hlan kah aka suntla khui lamloh anih he doek laeh,’ ti mai koinih.
25then his flesh is refreshed like a child’s; he returns to the days of his youth.
25A saa te camoe bangla noe vetih a cacawn tue vaengkah bangla saibawn suidae.
26He prays to God and finds favor; he sees God’s face and shouts for joy, and God restores His righteousness to that man.
26Pathen taengah a thangthui vanbangla anih te a moeithen ta. A maelhmai te tamlung neh a hmuh vaengah tah anih te hlanghing taengah duengnah neh a mael sak.
27Then he sings before men with these words: ‘I have sinned and perverted what was right; yet I did not get what I deserved.
27Hlang rhoek taengla a mae tih, “Ka tholh tih a thuem te a paihaeh sak dae kai taengah n'yook sak moenih.
28He redeemed my soul from going down to the Pit, and I will live to see the light.’
28Kamah hinglu, hinglu van tah hlan a paan khui lamloh a lat. Te dongah ka hingnah neh a hingnah loh vangnah te hmu saeh.
29Behold, all these things God does to a man, two or even three times,
29He boeih he Pathen loh hlang taengah voei nit voei thum a saii ne.
30to bring back his soul from the Pit, that he may be enlightened with the light of life.
30Hlan khui lamkah a hinglu te hingnah khosae neh tue hamla a mael sak.
31Pay attention, Job, and listen to me; be silent, and I will speak.
31Job nang hnatung lamtah kai ol he hnatun. Hilphah lamtah kai loh kan thui eh.
32But if you have something to say, answer me; speak up, for I would like to vindicate you.
32Kai nan thuung ham ol a om atah thui lah. Nang tang sak ham ka ngaih dongah ni.
33But if not, then listen to me; be quiet, and I will teach you wisdom.”
33Kai taengkah he na hnatun pawt atah hilphah lamtah nang te cueihnah kan cang sak bitni,” a ti nah.
