Baibal Olcim (Matupi Chin)
1Then Job replied:
1Job loh a doo tih,
2“If only my grief could be weighed and placed with my calamity on the scales.
2Ka konoinah ka thuek, ka thuek vetih ka talnah he cooi dongah ka tloeng rhenten koinih.
3For then it would outweigh the sand of the seas— no wonder my words have been rash.
3Tuitunli kah laivin lakah n'nan ngawn coeng. Te dongah ka ol he lawn coeng.
4For the arrows of the Almighty have pierced me; my spirit drinks in their poison; the terrors of God are arrayed against me.
4Tlungthang thaltang dongah a sue te ka khuiah ka mueihla loh a mam. Pathen kah hihhamnah loh kai taengah rhong a pai.
5Does a wild donkey bray over fresh grass, or an ox low over its fodder?
5Kohong marhang khaw baelhing soah pang tih, vaito te a kamvuelh soah rhung bal nim?
6Is tasteless food eaten without salt, or is there flavor in the white of an egg ?
6Lungkaeh om kolla ankak a caak tih aiduei dakda dongah a hlihlim om aya?
7My soul refuses to touch them; they are loathsome food to me.
7Amih te ka hinglu loh ben ham a aal tih ka buh khaw kolet la om.
8If only my request were granted and God would fulfill my hope:
8Ka huithuinah he ulong m'paek vetih a thoeng eh? Tedae ka ngaiuepnah he Pathen long ni m'paek eh?
9that God would be willing to crush me, to unleash His hand and cut me off!
9Pathen he mulmet vetih kai he m'phop, a kut a hlam vetih kai m'mueluem mako.
10It still brings me comfort, and joy through unrelenting pain, that I have not denied the words of the Holy One.
10Te vaengah kai ham hloephloeinah om dae lah sue. Te vaengah bungtloh khuiah ka uem mako. Hlangcim te ka phah pawt bangla n'lungma sak pawt mako.
11What strength do I have, that I should still hope? What is my future, that I should be patient?
11Ka ngaiuep ham ka thadueng khaw menim? Ka hinglu ka hlawt ham ka hmailong khaw menim?
12Is my strength like that of stone, or my flesh made of bronze?
12Ka thadueng he lungto thadueng nim? Ka saa he rhohumsen a?
13Is there any help within me now that success is driven from me?
13Kai ham he kamah kah bomnah om ngawn pawt tih lungming cueihnah khaw kai lamloh a heh coeng.
14A despairing man should have the kindness of his friend, even if he forsakes the fear of the Almighty.
14Ngaidaeng loh tlungthang hinyahnah a hnoo vaengah pataeng a baerhoep taengkah sitlohnah a dang van.
15But my brothers are as faithless as wadis, as seasonal streams that overflow,
15Ka manuca rhoek khaw soklong bangla la hnukpoh tih sokca soklong bangla kak.
16darkened because of the ice and the inflow of melting snow,
16Amih te vueltling loh a nu sak tih vuelsong a yut pah.
17but ceasing in the dry season and vanishing from their channels in the heat.
17Kho a awlh vaengah a bae neh huu tih amah hmuen lamloh kak uh.
18Caravans turn aside from their routes; they go into the wasteland and perish.
18A caehlong longpuei a hoi uh tih hinghong la a caeh dongah milh uh.
19The caravans of Tema look for water; the travelers of Sheba hope to find it.
19Tema caehlong kah rhoek loh a paelki uh tih, Sheba lambong amih ham a lamtawn uh.
20They are confounded because they had hoped; their arrival brings disappointment.
20A pangtung uh dongah yak uh tih a taengla a pawk uh akhaw a hmai tal.
21For now you are of no help; you see terror, and you are afraid.
21A taengah a hong la na om uh van coeng dongah rhihkoi na hmuh vaengah na rhih uh.
22Have I ever said, ‘Give me something; offer me a bribe from your wealth;
22“Kai taengah m'pae uh lamtah na thadueng lamloh kai hamla kapbaih pae uh.
23deliver me from the hand of the enemy; redeem me from the grasp of the ruthless’?
23Rhal kut lamloh kai n'loeih sak lamtah hlanghaeng kut lamloh kai n'lat uh,” ka ti noek a?
24Teach me, and I will be silent. Help me understand how I have erred.
24Kai n'thuinuet lamtah ka ngam bitni. Metla ka palang khaw kai he m'ming sak uh.
25How painful are honest words! But what does your argument prove?
25Balae tih hlang dueng ol rhap rhap a cal? Nangmih lamloh a tluung ham khaw balae a tluung?
26Do you intend to correct my words, and treat as wind my cry of despair?
26Olthui te tluung hamla na moeh uh nama? Ol khaw khohli bangla talsae mai pawn ni.
27You would even cast lots for an orphan and barter away your friend.
27Cadah ham aisat hmulung na naan vetih na hui hamla na tael pah nim?
28But now, please look at me. Would I lie to your face?
28Tedae mulmet uh laeh, kai taengla mael uh. Nangmih maelhmai ah ka laithae nim?
29Reconsider; do not be unjust. Reconsider, for my righteousness is at stake.
29Mael uh laeh, dumlai la om uh boeh, mael uh laeh, koep mael uh laeh. Ka duengnah he a khuiah om.
30Is there iniquity on my tongue? Can my mouth not discern malice?
30Ka lai dongah dumlai om nim? Ka dang loh talnah yakming pawt maco.
