Job 19
Asang Khongca Bible (Eastern Khumi Chin, 2019)
World English Bible
1To pacoengah Job mah,
1Then Job answered,
2kai poek nang patang o sak, nasetto maw lok hoiah nang pacaekthlaek o han vop?
2“How long will you torment me, and crush me with words?
3Vai hato nang zoeh o boeh; azathaih tawn ai ah panoek vai ai ih kami baktiah nang zoeh o.
3You have reproached me ten times. You aren’t ashamed that you attack me.
4Sakpazaehaih ka tawnh cadoeh, ka sakpazaehaih loe kaimah nuiah ni krak.
4If it is true that I have erred, my error remains with myself.
5Nangcae loe kai ni nam oek o thuih, a sak ih zaehaih pongah ni azathaih hoiah oh, tiah nang naa o:
5If indeed you will magnify yourselves against me, and plead against me my reproach,
6toe kai loe Sithaw mah ni amtimsak moe, anih ih thaang pongah ka manh, tito panoek oh.
6know now that God has subverted me, and has surrounded me with his net.
7Khenah, ka sakpazaehaih thung hoiah ka hang; mi mah doeh tahngai ai; tha hoi ka hangh, toe toenghaih hoiah lokcaek kami om ai.
7“Behold, I cry out of wrong, but I am not heard. I cry for help, but there is no justice.
8Anih mah ka poeng thaih han ai ah ka caehhaih loklam to pakaa khoep, anih mah ka caehhaih loklam ah vinghaih to suek.
8He has walled up my way so that I can’t pass, and has set darkness in my paths.
9Ka lensawkhaih to anih mah ang khringh pae moe, ka lu nui ih lumuek to ang lak pae ving.
9He has stripped me of my glory, and taken the crown from my head.
10Anih mah ahmuen kruek hoi ang boh pongah, kam ro boeh; anih mah ka oephaih to thing baktiah ang phongh pae ving.
10He has broken me down on every side, and I am gone. He has plucked my hope up like a tree.
11Anih ih palung kabae to kai khaeah ang palai moe, kai hae a misa ah ang poek.
11He has also kindled his wrath against me. He counts me among his adversaries.
12Anih ih misatuh kaminawk loe, kai tuk hanah nawnto angzoh o moe, kai ih kahni im taeng boih ah atai o.
12His troops come on together, build a siege ramp against me, and encamp around my tent.
13Kam nawkamyanawk to kai khae hoi kangthla ah a ohsak moe, kam puinawk doeh panoek vai ai ih kami baktiah ni oh o.
13“He has put my brothers far from me. My acquaintances are wholly estranged from me.
14Ka canawknawk mah ang pahnawt o moe, kam puinawk mah ang pahnet o boeh.
14My relatives have gone away. My familiar friends have forgotten me.
15Ka tamna nongpatanawk hoi ka imthung takohnawk mah angvin baktih, prae kalah kami baktiah ang khet o.
15Those who dwell in my house and my maids consider me a stranger. I am an alien in their sight.
16Ka tamna to ka kawk naah, na pathim ai; tahmenhaih ka hnik cadoeh, na pathim ai boeh.
16I call to my servant, and he gives me no answer. I beg him with my mouth.
17Kang hahhaih takhi loe ka zu koeh koiah om ai, ka caanawk hanah panuet thok hmuen ah oh boeh.
17My breath is offensive to my wife. I am loathsome to the children of my own mother.
18Ue, nawktanawk mah ang patoek o, kang thawk tahang naah, ang pahnui o thuih.
18Even young children despise me. If I arise, they speak against me.
19Kam puinawk mah ang panuet o moe, ka palung ih kaminawk doeh ka misa ah angcoeng o ving boeh.
19All my familiar friends abhor me. They whom I loved have turned against me.
20Ka huh loe nganhin hoi angbet rap boeh moe, ka haa doeh angkhringh boeh.
20My bones stick to my skin and to my flesh. I have escaped by the skin of my teeth.
21Aw kam puinawk, na tahmen oh, na tahmen oh; Sithaw mah ni ang boh.
21“Have pity on me. Have pity on me, you my friends, for the hand of God has touched me.
22Tipongah Sithaw pacaekthlaek baktiah kai nang pacaekthlaek o loe? Kai ih angan hoiah zok nam hah o ai vop maw?
22Why do you persecute me as God, and are not satisfied with my flesh?
23Aw, ka loknawk hae pakuem o nasoe loe, nihcae mah cabu ah pathok o nasoe.
23“Oh that my words were now written! Oh that they were inscribed in a book!
24Sum cacung hoiah tarik o nasoe loe, thlung nuiah dungzan ah tarik o poe nasoe!
24That with an iron pen and lead they were engraved in the rock forever!
25Kai akrangkung loe hing, tiah ka panoek; anih loe hnukkhuem atue boeng naah long ah angdoe tih;
25But as for me, I know that my Redeemer lives. In the end, he will stand upon the earth.
26ka nganhin amro moe, hae takpum hae amro ving cadoeh, ka taksa hoiah Sithaw to ka hnu vop tih;
26After my skin is destroyed, then I will see God in my flesh,
27anih to ka hnu tih; minawk mah hnuk ih na ai, kaimah roe mik hoiah ka hnu tih; ka palungthin mah zing kong boeh.
27whom I, even I, will see on my side. My eyes will see, and not as a stranger. “My heart is consumed within me.
28Nangcae mah, anih hae kawbangmaw pacaekthlaek han, anih zae nethaih kawbangmaw hnuk thai han? tiah na thuih o,
28If you say, ‘How we will persecute him!’ because the root of the matter is found in me,
29sumsen to na zit o han oh, Sithaw palungphuihaih mah sumsen hoi danpaekhaih to tacawtsak, lokcaekhaih atue oh, tiah panoek oh, tiah a naa.
29be afraid of the sword, for wrath brings the punishments of the sword, that you may know there is a judgment.”
