Job 33
Asang Khongca Bible (Eastern Khumi Chin, 2019)
Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
1Toe Job, ka lok hae tahngai ah; ka thuih ih loknawk boih hae tahngai ah.
1Hear therefore, O Job, my speeches, and hearken to all my words.
2Khenah, vaihi pakha ka angh moe, ka palai mah lokthuih.
2Behold now I have opened my mouth, let my tongue speak within my jaws.
3Ka loknawk loe ka poek toenghaih hoiah ni angzoh; ka palai mah kahoih palunghahaih lok to thuih.
3My words are from my upright heart, and my lips shall speak a pure sentence.
4Sithaw ih Muithla mah ni kai hae sak moe, Thacak Angraeng ih takhi mah hinghaih ang paek.
4The spirit of God made me, and the breath of the Almighty gave me life.
5Na pathim thaih nahaeloe na patim ah, amsakcoek ah loe ka hmaa ah angdoe ah.
5If thou canst, answer me, and stand up against my face.
6Khenah, Sithaw hmaa ah kai doeh nang baktiah ni ka oh, kai doeh long hoiah ni sak toeng.
6Behold God hath made me as well as thee, and of the same clay I also was formed.
7Khenah, na zit han koi kai khaeah tidoeh om ai; na nuiah kazit ban to ka koeng mak ai.
7But yet let not my wonder terrify thee, and let not my eloquence be burdensome to thee.
8Na thuih ih lok to ka thaih, na thuih ih loknawk to ka thaih boeh,
8Now thou has said in my hearing, and I have heard the voice of thy words:
9kai loe ka ciim, zae sakhaih ka tawn ai; sakpazaehaih doeh ka tawn ai.
9I am clean, and without sin: I am unspotted, and there is no iniquity in me.
10Khenah, Sithaw mah ka zaehaih pakrong; kai hae a misa ah ang suek,
10Because he hath found complaints against me, therefore he hath counted me for his enemy.
11ka khok hae thlong ang thuk pae moe, ka caehhaih loklamnawk boih ang pakaa, tiah na thuih.
11He hath put my feet in the stocks, he hath observed all my paths.
12Khenah, na thuih pazae boeh; lok kang pathim han vop, Sithaw loe kami pongah len kue.
12Now this is the thing in which thou art not justified: I will answer thee, that God is greater than man.
13Anih mah ka sak ih hmuen kawng pongah lok pathim ai, tiah na thuih moe, Sithaw to na laisaep thuih loe?
13Dost thou strive against him, because he hath not answered thee to all words?
14Sithaw mah lok vaito thuih pacoengah, kalah loklam bang hoiah lok a thuih pae let, toe kami mah panoek pae thai ai.
14God speaketh once, and repeateth not the selfsame thing the second time.
15Kami loe iih angam moe, iihhaih ahmuen ah a iih, qum amang ah hnuksakhaih mah,
15By a dream in a vision by night, when deep sleep falleth upon men, and they are sleeping in their beds:
16a naa thungah lok to thuih pae moe, thuitaekhaih lok to paek,
16Then he openeth the ears of men, and teaching instructeth them in what they are to learn.
17kami mah sak atimhaih to pahnawt moe, amoekhaih tawn han ai ah a sak.
17That he may withdraw a man from the things he is doing, and may deliver him from pride.
18Anih hinghaih to tangqom thung hoiah Sithaw mah pahlong moe, sumsen hoi duek han ai ah pakaa pae.
18Rescuing his soul from corruption: and his life from passing to the sword.
19Anih loe iihhaih ahmuen ah angsong hanah nathaih hoiah kami to thuitaek moe, ahuhnawk boih to natsak;
19He rebuketh also by sorrow in the bed, and he maketh all his bones to wither.
20To naah a hinghaih mah buh to panuet moe, palung mah buhcaak angnaa pae ai.
20Bread becometh abominable to him in his life, and to his soul the meat which before he desired.
21Anih loe zaek kaeng boeh moe, kamtueng vai ai ahuhnawk doeh, amtueng boih.
21His flesh shall be consumed away, and his bones that were covered shall be made bare.
22Ue, a hinghaih mah taprong to pangh tathuk, a hinghaih amrosakkungnawk khaeah phak tom boeh.
22His soul hath drawn near to corruption, and his life to the destroyers.
23Toe kaminawk khaeah toenghaih loklam to patuek hanah, van kami sangto thungah, maeto mah Sithaw hoi kami salakah laicaeh ah om nahaeloe,
23If there shall be an angel speaking for him, one among thousands, to declare man’s uprightness,
24Sithaw mah anih to tahmen ah loe, Tangqom thung caeh han ai ah anih to pahlong ah; anih akranghaih to ka hnuk boeh, tiah thui tih.
24He shall have mercy on him, and shall say: Deliver him, that he may not go down to corruption: I have found wherein I may be merciful to him.
25To naah anih ih ngan loe nawkta ngan baktiah angcoeng let ueloe, thendoeng nathuem ih baktih toengah om let tih.
25His flesh is consumed with punishment, let him return to the days of his youth.
26Anih mah Sithaw khaeah lawkthui ueloe, mikhmai hoihaih to hnu tih; anghoehaih hoi Sithaw ih mikhmai to hnu tih; Sithaw mah a toenghaih to kami hanah paek.
26He shall pray to God, and he will be gracious to him: and he shall see his face with joy, and he will render to man his justice.
27Anih mah kaminawk hmaa ah, Mi kawbaktih mah doeh ka zae moeng boeh, toenghaih to toeng ai ah ka sak moeng boeh, to hmuen mah kai han avanghaih tidoeh na paek ai, tiah thui nahaeloe,
27He shall look upon men, and shall say: I have sinned, and indeed I have offended, and I have not received what I have deserved.
28Anih mah tangqom thung hoiah a hinghaih to akrang ueloe, a hinghaih mah aanghaih to hnu tih.
28He hath delivered his soul from going into destruction, that it may live and see the light.
29Khenah, Sithaw mah hae hmuennawk hae kami khaeah sak toepsoep;
29Behold, all these things God worketh three times within every one.
30anih hinghaih to tangqom thung hoiah amlaemsak let moe, hinghaih paek aanghaih thungah a caeh haih.
30That he may withdraw their souls from corruption, and enlighten them with the light of the living.
31Aw Job, naa to patuengah loe, ka lok hae acoehaih hoiah tahngai ah; anghngai duem ah; lok kang thuih han vop.
31Attend, Job, and hearken to me: and hold thy peace, whilst I speak.
32Lokthuih na koeh nahaeloe, na pathim ah; toenghaih hnuksak han ka koeh pongah, lok na thui ah.
32But if thou hast any thing to say, answer me, speak: for I would have thee to appear just.
33Toe lokthuih han na tawn ai nahaeloe, ka lok hae tahngai ah; anghngai duem ah, palunghahaih kang patuk han, tiah a naa.
33And if thou have not, hear me: hold thy peace, and I will teach thee wisdom.
