Job 10
Asang Khongca Bible (Eastern Khumi Chin, 2019)
World English 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“My soul is weary of my life. I will give free course to my complaint. I will 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 tell God, ‘Do not condemn me. Show me why you contend with me.
3Minawk pacaekthlaek moe, na ban hoi sak ih hmuen to patoekhaih pacoengah, kasae kaminawk poekhaih to nang hoe haih maw?
3Is it good to you that you should oppress, that you should despise the work of your hands, and smile on the counsel 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? Or 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 as the days of mortals, or your years as man’s years,
6Tipongah ka sakpazaehaih hoi ka zaehaih to na pakrong loe?
6that you inquire after my iniquity, and search after my sin?
7Kai loe kasae kami na ai ni, tiah na panoek; mi mah doeh na ban thung hoi pahlong thai mak ai.
7Although you know that I am not wicked, there is no one who can deliver out of your hand.
8Ka takpum boih hae na ban hoiah ni nang sak, ka tungkrang doeh nang ohsak; toe vaihi nam rosak han boeh maw?
8“‘Your hands have framed me and fashioned me altogether, yet you destroy me.
9Kai hae tangphrung long baktiah ni nang sak, tiah pahnet hmah; vaihi maiphu ah maw nam laemsak let han boeh?
9Remember, I beg you, that you have fashioned me as clay. Will you bring me into dust again?
10Kai hae maitaw tahnutui baktiah nang kraih moe, maitaw tahnutui kamkhawk baktiah nam khawksak boeh na ai maw?
10Haven’t you poured me out like milk, and curdled me like cheese?
11Kai hanah agan hoi ahin to nang khuksak moe, ahuh hoi thaquinawk hoiah nang zaeng.
11You have 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 kindness. Your visitation 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 hid these things in your heart. I know that this is with you:
14Ka zae nahaeloe, ka zaehaih to na pakuem moe, ka zaehaih baktih toengah dan nang paek.
14if I sin, then you mark me. You will not acquit me from 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 wicked, woe to me. If I am righteous, I still will not lift up my head, being filled with disgrace, and conscious of my affliction.
16kang thawk tahang naah, zoep ih hmawsaeng kaipui baktiah nang zoep moe, zitthok hmuen ka nuiah nam tuengsak.
16If my head is held high, you hunt me like a lion. Again you show yourself powerful to 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 renew your witnesses against me, and increase your indignation on me. Changes and warfare are with me.
18Tipongah kam no zok thung hoiah nang tacawtsak loe? Ka duek ving nahaeloe, mi mah doeh na hnu mak ai.
18“‘Why, then, have you brought me out of the womb? I wish I had given up the spirit, 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.
19I should have been as though I had not been. I should have 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,
20Aren’t my days few? Stop! Leave me alone, that I may find a little comfort,
no verse 21 in this text
21before I go where I will not return from, to the land of darkness and of the shadow of death;
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.
22the land dark as midnight, of the shadow of death, without any order, where the light is as midnight.’”
