Job 10
Asang Khongca Bible (Eastern Khumi Chin, 2019)
Berean Standard Bible
1Ka pakhra mah ka hinghaih hmawt sut boeh; to pongah laisaephaih ai ah loe ka om thai ai, ka hingh patangkhanghaih hae nang khaeah kang thuih han.
1“I loathe my own life; I will express my complaint and speak in the bitterness of my soul.
2Sithaw khaeah, Zaehaih na net hmah, tipongah misa ah nang suek loe, na thui ah, tiah ka naa han.
2I will say to God: Do not condemn me! Let me know why You prosecute me.
3Minawk pacaekthlaek moe, na ban hoi sak ih hmuen to patoekhaih pacoengah, kasae kaminawk poekhaih to nang hoe haih maw?
3Does it please You to oppress me, to reject the work of Your hands and favor the schemes of the wicked?
4Nang loe long taksa mik maw na tawnh? To tih ai boeh loe kami mah hnuk ih baktiah maw na hnuk?
4Do You have eyes of flesh? Do You see as man sees?
5Nang ih aninawk loe kadueh thaih kaminawk ih ani baktiah maw oh? Nang ih saningnawk doeh kami ih saning baktiah maw oh?
5Are Your days like those of a mortal, or Your years like those of a man,
6Tipongah ka sakpazaehaih hoi ka zaehaih to na pakrong loe?
6that You should seek my iniquity and search out my sin—
7Kai loe kasae kami na ai ni, tiah na panoek; mi mah doeh na ban thung hoi pahlong thai mak ai.
7though You know that I am not guilty, and there is no deliverance from Your hand?
8Ka takpum boih hae na ban hoiah ni nang sak, ka tungkrang doeh nang ohsak; toe vaihi nam rosak han boeh maw?
8Your hands shaped me and altogether formed me. Would You now turn and destroy me?
9Kai hae tangphrung long baktiah ni nang sak, tiah pahnet hmah; vaihi maiphu ah maw nam laemsak let han boeh?
9Please remember that You molded me like clay. Would You now return me to dust?
10Kai hae maitaw tahnutui baktiah nang kraih moe, maitaw tahnutui kamkhawk baktiah nam khawksak boeh na ai maw?
10Did You not pour me out like milk, and curdle me like cheese?
11Kai hanah agan hoi ahin to nang khuksak moe, ahuh hoi thaquinawk hoiah nang zaeng.
11You clothed me with skin and flesh, and knit me together with bones and sinews.
12Hinghaih hoi tahmenhaih kai hanah nang paek, ka muithla hae nang khetzawn.
12You have granted me life and loving devotion, and Your care has preserved my spirit.
13Toe hae hmuennawk thui ai ah palung thungah na suek; na palung thungah hae hmuen hae oh, tiah ka panoek.
13Yet You concealed these things in Your heart, and I know that this was in Your mind:
14Ka zae nahaeloe, ka zaehaih to na pakuem moe, ka zaehaih baktih toengah dan nang paek.
14If I sinned, You would take note, and would not acquit me of my iniquity.
15Kahoih ai kami ah ka oh nahaeloe, khosak bing boeh! Toenghaih hoi ka oh cadoeh, pakoehhaih ka hnu ai. Patangkhanghaih ka poek loiah ka zat sut boeh;
15If I am guilty, woe to me! And even if I am righteous, I cannot lift my head. I am full of shame and aware of my affliction.
16kang thawk tahang naah, zoep ih hmawsaeng kaipui baktiah nang zoep moe, zitthok hmuen ka nuiah nam tuengsak.
16Should I hold my head high, You would hunt me like a lion, and again display Your power against me.
17Kai kasae thuih koeh kami na tawnh mangh, ka nuiah palungphuihaih na thap aep; kai tuk han koeh paroeai misa to nang zoh haih.
17You produce new witnesses against me and multiply Your anger toward me. Hardships assault me in wave after wave.
18Tipongah kam no zok thung hoiah nang tacawtsak loe? Ka duek ving nahaeloe, mi mah doeh na hnu mak ai.
18Why then did You bring me from the womb? Oh, that I had died, and no eye had seen me!
19Kaom vai ai baktiah ka om ueloe, kam no zok thung hoiah taprong ah na caeh o haih tih.
19If only I had never come to be, but had been carried from the womb to the grave.
20Kai ih atue loe setta ah na ai maw oh boeh? Ka phak pacoengah kam laem let han ai ih prae, duekhaih tahlip mah khuk ih vinghaih prae ah ka caeh ai naah, nawnetta thung, kaimabueng monghaih hoiah ka oh hanah, na caeh taak ah,
20Are my days not few? Withdraw from me, that I may have a little comfort,
no verse 21 in this text
21before I go—never to return— to a land of darkness and gloom,
22to prae loe aqum baktih khovinghaih prae, hmuen boih angmah ih ahmuen ah kaom ai, duekhaih tahlip ahmuen, aanghaih to vinghaih ah kaom prae ni, tiah ka thuih han, tiah anih mah pathim pae.
22to a land of utter darkness, of deep shadow and disorder, where even the light is like darkness.”
