Job 33
Asang Khongca Bible (Eastern Khumi Chin, 2019)
King James Version with Apocrypha
1Toe Job, ka lok hae tahngai ah; ka thuih ih loknawk boih hae tahngai ah.
1Wherefore, Job, I pray thee, hear 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, my tongue hath spoken in my mouth.
3Ka loknawk loe ka poek toenghaih hoiah ni angzoh; ka palai mah kahoih palunghahaih lok to thuih.
3My words shall be of the uprightness of my heart: and my lips shall utter knowledge clearly.
4Sithaw ih Muithla mah ni kai hae sak moe, Thacak Angraeng ih takhi mah hinghaih ang paek.
4The Spirit of God hath made me, and the breath of the Almighty hath given me life.
5Na pathim thaih nahaeloe na patim ah, amsakcoek ah loe ka hmaa ah angdoe ah.
5If thou canst answer me, set thy words in order before me, stand up.
6Khenah, Sithaw hmaa ah kai doeh nang baktiah ni ka oh, kai doeh long hoiah ni sak toeng.
6Behold, I am according to thy wish in God’s stead: I also am formed out of the clay.
7Khenah, na zit han koi kai khaeah tidoeh om ai; na nuiah kazit ban to ka koeng mak ai.
7Behold, my terror shall not make thee afraid, neither shall my hand be heavy upon thee.
8Na thuih ih lok to ka thaih, na thuih ih loknawk to ka thaih boeh,
8Surely thou hast spoken in mine hearing, and I have heard the voice of thy words, saying ,
9kai loe ka ciim, zae sakhaih ka tawn ai; sakpazaehaih doeh ka tawn ai.
9I am clean without transgression, I am innocent; neither is there iniquity in me.
10Khenah, Sithaw mah ka zaehaih pakrong; kai hae a misa ah ang suek,
10Behold, he findeth occasions against me, he counteth me for his enemy,
11ka khok hae thlong ang thuk pae moe, ka caehhaih loklamnawk boih ang pakaa, tiah na thuih.
11He putteth my feet in the stocks, he marketh all my paths.
12Khenah, na thuih pazae boeh; lok kang pathim han vop, Sithaw loe kami pongah len kue.
12Behold, in this thou art not just: 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?
13Why dost thou strive against him? for he giveth not account of any of his matters.
14Sithaw mah lok vaito thuih pacoengah, kalah loklam bang hoiah lok a thuih pae let, toe kami mah panoek pae thai ai.
14For God speaketh once, yea twice, yet man perceiveth it not.
15Kami loe iih angam moe, iihhaih ahmuen ah a iih, qum amang ah hnuksakhaih mah,
15In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falleth upon men, in slumberings upon the bed;
16a naa thungah lok to thuih pae moe, thuitaekhaih lok to paek,
16Then he openeth the ears of men, and sealeth their instruction,
17kami mah sak atimhaih to pahnawt moe, amoekhaih tawn han ai ah a sak.
17That he may withdraw man from his purpose, and hide pride from man.
18Anih hinghaih to tangqom thung hoiah Sithaw mah pahlong moe, sumsen hoi duek han ai ah pakaa pae.
18He keepeth back his soul from the pit, and his life from perishing by the sword.
19Anih loe iihhaih ahmuen ah angsong hanah nathaih hoiah kami to thuitaek moe, ahuhnawk boih to natsak;
19He is chastened also with pain upon his bed, and the multitude of his bones with strong pain:
20To naah a hinghaih mah buh to panuet moe, palung mah buhcaak angnaa pae ai.
20So that his life abhorreth bread, and his soul dainty meat.
21Anih loe zaek kaeng boeh moe, kamtueng vai ai ahuhnawk doeh, amtueng boih.
21His flesh is consumed away, that it cannot be seen; and his bones that were not seen stick out.
22Ue, a hinghaih mah taprong to pangh tathuk, a hinghaih amrosakkungnawk khaeah phak tom boeh.
22Yea, his soul draweth near unto the grave, 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 be a messenger with him, an interpreter, one among a thousand, to shew unto man his 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.
24Then he is gracious unto him, and saith, Deliver him from going down to the pit: I have found a ransom.
25To naah anih ih ngan loe nawkta ngan baktiah angcoeng let ueloe, thendoeng nathuem ih baktih toengah om let tih.
25His flesh shall be fresher than a child’s: he shall 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 unto God, and he will be favourable unto him: and he shall see his face with joy: for he will render unto man his righteousness.
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 looketh upon men, and if any say, I have sinned, and perverted that which was right, and it profited me not;
28Anih mah tangqom thung hoiah a hinghaih to akrang ueloe, a hinghaih mah aanghaih to hnu tih.
28He will deliver his soul from going into the pit, and his life shall see the light.
29Khenah, Sithaw mah hae hmuennawk hae kami khaeah sak toepsoep;
29Lo, all these things worketh God oftentimes with man,
30anih hinghaih to tangqom thung hoiah amlaemsak let moe, hinghaih paek aanghaih thungah a caeh haih.
30To bring back his soul from the pit, to be enlightened 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.
31Mark well, O Job, hearken unto me: hold thy peace, and I will speak.
32Lokthuih na koeh nahaeloe, na pathim ah; toenghaih hnuksak han ka koeh pongah, lok na thui ah.
32If thou hast any thing to say, answer me: speak, for I desire to justify thee.
33Toe lokthuih han na tawn ai nahaeloe, ka lok hae tahngai ah; anghngai duem ah, palunghahaih kang patuk han, tiah a naa.
33If not, hearken unto me: hold thy peace, and I shall teach thee wisdom.
