Job 39
Asang Khongca Bible (Eastern Khumi Chin, 2019)
World English Bible
1Sathar caa tapenhaih atue na panoek maw? To tih ai boeh loe tasuk caa tapenhaih atue na panoek maw?
1“Do you know the time when the mountain goats give birth? Do you watch when the doe bears fawns?
2Ca tapen karoek to khrah nazetto maw zokpomh, tito na panoek maw? To tih ai boeh loe nihcae tapenhaih atue na panoek maw?
2Can you count the months that they fulfill? Or do you know the time when they give birth?
3Nihcae loe tabok o, caa tapen o; to naah caa tapenhaih kana to pahnet o.
3They bow themselves. They bear their young. They end their labor pains.
4A caanawk loe ngantui o moe, taw ah qoeng o tahang; amno to caeh o taak, amlaem o let ai boeh.
4Their young ones become strong. They grow up in the open field. They go out, and don’t return again.
5Mi mah maw taw ih hrangnawk angmah koeh ah prasak? Mi mah maw taw hrang ih aqui to khramh pae thaih?
5“Who has set the wild donkey free? Or who has loosened the bonds of the swift donkey,
6Anih ohhaih ahmuen to praezaek ah ka sak moe, karoem long to anih ohhaih ahmuen ah ka paek.
6whose home I have made the wilderness, and the salt land his dwelling place?
7Anih loe vangpui thung ih loknawk to pahnuithuih moe, kamongh kami hanghaih lok doeh tahngai ai.
7He scorns the tumult of the city, neither does he hear the shouting of the driver.
8Anih loe maenawk nuiah prat moe, kahing phrohnawk to pakrong.
8The range of the mountains is his pasture. He searches after every green thing.
9Hmawsaeng taw ih maitaw loe na tok to sak moe, nang khaeah oh han koeh tih maw?
9“Will the wild ox be content to serve you? Or will he stay by your feeding trough?
10Laikok toksak hanah qui hoiah na zae thai tih maw? To tih ai boeh loe laikok atok hanah na hnukah bang thai tih maw?
10Can you hold the wild ox in the furrow with his harness? Or will he till the valleys after you?
11Anih thacakhaih to na oep han maw? To tih ai boeh loe na sak ih tok to anih khaeah na aap thai tih maw?
11Will you trust him, because his strength is great? Or will you leave to him your labor?
12Anih mah im ah cang na phaw pae ueloe, tapup thungah na suem pae tih, tiah na tang maw?
12Will you confide in him, that he will bring home your seed, and gather the grain of your threshing floor?
13Tawtaaw tavaa loe amoekhaih hoiah pakhraeh to boh, toe tahnongsawk tavaa hoi Ostrich tavaa loe anih ih amui hoiah patah thai ai,
13“The wings of the ostrich wave proudly, but are they the feathers and plumage of love?
14anih loe long ah taduih moe, savuet long hoiah tadui to khaeksak,
14For she leaves her eggs on the earth, warms them in the dust,
15anih loe khok hoiah angmah ih tadui to cawh moeng ueloe, taw ih moi mah tadui koisak moeng tih, tito panoek ai.
15and forgets that the foot may crush them, or that the wild animal may trample them.
16Anih loe a caanawk to angmah ih caa ai baktiah khet, anih caasakhaih loe azom pui ni, tiah poek ai;
16She deals harshly with her young ones, as if they were not hers. Though her labor is in vain, she is without fear,
17Sithaw mah anih han palunghahaih to paek ai, panoekhaih roe paek ai.
17because God has deprived her of wisdom, neither has he imparted to her understanding.
18Toe pakhraeh atoengh tahang naah, anih mah hrang hoi a nuiah kangthueng kami to pahnuithuih.
18When she lifts up herself on high, she scorns the horse and his rider.
19Hrang tha na caksak maw? Anih ih tahnong to na khuk pae maw?
19“Have you given the horse might? Have you clothed his neck with a quivering mane?
20Pakhuh kangphet baktiah maw nang phetsak? Anih anghahaih takhi tuen loe zit thoh parai.
20Have you made him to leap as a locust? The glory of his snorting is awesome.
21Anih loe azawn ah cawnh tapaih, a thacakhaih to angoep moe, misatuh kaminawk to a hmaang.
21He paws in the valley, and rejoices in his strength. He goes out to meet the armed men.
22Zithaih to pahnuithuih, zithaih tidoeh tawn ai; sumsen doeh cawn taak ai.
22He mocks at fear, and is not dismayed, neither does he turn back from the sword.
23Anih kahhaih palaa tuen to tacawt, tayae hoi misa angvaenghaih aphaw loe ampha hlip.
23The quiver rattles against him, the flashing spear and the javelin.
24Anih loe palungphui moe, thacakhaih palung hoiah long to a caak; mongkah lok a thaih naah, om duem thai ai.
24He eats up the ground with fierceness and rage, neither does he stand still at the sound of the trumpet.
25Mongkah lok thaih naah, Ha, ha, tiah a thuih; misatuh angraeng ih lok, misa pahruekhaih lok ahmui loe ahmuen kangthla hoiah panoek thaih.
25As often as the trumpet sounds he snorts, ‘Aha!’ He smells the battle afar off, the thunder of the captains, and the shouting.
26Tahmu loe na patuk ih palunghahaih hoiah pakhraeh to boh moe, aloih bangah azawk tathuk maw?
26“Is it by your wisdom that the hawk soars, and stretches her wings toward the south?
27Tahmu loe na paek ih lok pongah maw van bangah azawk tahang moe, hmuensang ah tabu to boh?
27Is it at your command that the eagle mounts up, and makes his nest on high?
28Anih loe lungsong nuiah oh, cathaeng loe anih ohhaih kacak ahmuen ah oh.
28On the cliff he dwells and makes his home, on the point of the cliff and the stronghold.
29To ahmuen hoiah a khet moe, caak koi moi to ahmuen kangthla hoiah hnuk thaih.
29From there he spies out the prey. His eyes see it afar off.
30A caanawk doeh athii to pazoh o toeng; anih loe kadueh qok ohhaih ahmuen ah oh, tiah a naa.
30His young ones also suck up blood. Where the slain are, there he is.”
