Job 5
Asang Khongca Bible (Eastern Khumi Chin, 2019)
King James Version with Apocrypha
1Vaihi kawk noek ah, na kawkhaih lok pathim han kami om tih maw? Naa bang ih kaciim kaminawk khaeah maw nang qoi han?
1Call now, if there be any that will answer thee; and to which of the saints wilt thou turn?
2Palungphui hmai baktih amngaehhaih mah kamthu to hum moe, uthaih mah kamthu to misong ah ohsak.
2For wrath killeth the foolish man, and envy slayeth the silly one.
3Kamthu ih tangzun loe cak, tiah ka hnuk pongah, a ohhaih ahmuen to ka tangoeng pae roep.
3I have seen the foolish taking root: but suddenly I cursed his habitation.
4Anih ih caanawk loe misa monghaih tawn o ai, khongkha ah ah atit o naah, bomkung tawn o ai.
4His children are far from safety, and they are crushed in the gate, neither is there any to deliver them .
5A aah ih cang loe zok amthlam kaminawk mah caak pae o ving; anih ih hmuenmaenawk loe mingcahnawk mah lomh pae o king.
5Whose harvest the hungry eateth up, and taketh it even out of the thorns, and the robber swalloweth up their substance.
6Patangkhanghaih loe maiphu thung hoiah angzo ai, raihaih doeh long thung hoiah tacawt ai.
6Although affliction cometh not forth of the dust, neither doth trouble spring out of the ground;
7Toe van bangah tapraek tahang hmai baktih toengah, kami loe raihaih tongh han ih ni tapen roe.
7Yet man is born unto trouble, as the sparks fly upward.
8Toe kai loe Sithaw khaeah tahmenhaih ka hnik moe, ka raihaih to Sithaw khaeah ka tathlang han:
8I would seek unto God, and unto God would I commit my cause:
9anih loe paroeai kalen hmuen, kroek laek ai hmuen, dawnrai koi hmuennawk to sak;
9Which doeth great things and unsearchable; marvellous things without number:
10Anih mah ni long ah kho angzohsak moe, lawk ah tui to longsak.
10Who giveth rain upon the earth, and sendeth waters upon the fields:
11Poek pahnaem kami to anih mah atoengh tahang moe, palungsae kami to monghaih ahmuen ah atoengh tahang.
11To set up on high those that be low; that those which mourn may be exalted to safety.
12Minawk aling thaih kami mah kasae pacaeng ih hmuen akoep han ai ah, anih mah pakaa pae.
12He disappointeth the devices of the crafty, so that their hands cannot perform their enterprise.
13Palungha kaminawk loe angmacae palunghahaih hoiah sak pacaeng ih hmuen pongah amansak moe, poek kangkawn kami amsakhaih to a phraek pae.
13He taketh the wise in their own craftiness: and the counsel of the froward is carried headlong.
14Nihcae loe khodai ah vinghaih tongh o moe, athun ah khoving baktiah loklam pathoep hoiah a caeh o.
14They meet with darkness in the daytime, and grope in the noonday as in the night.
15Sithaw mah amtang kaminawk to thacak kami ih pakha hoi anih ih ban thung hoiah pahlong.
15But he saveth the poor from the sword, from their mouth, and from the hand of the mighty.
16To pongah amtang kaminawk loe oephaih tawnh o moe, katoeng ai hmuen mah anih ih pakha to tamuep pae.
16So the poor hath hope, and iniquity stoppeth her mouth.
17Khenah, Sithaw mah patoengh ih kami loe tahamhoih; to pongah Thacak koek Sithaw mah thuitaekhaih to patoek hmah.
17Behold, happy is the man whom God correcteth: therefore despise not thou the chastening of the Almighty:
18Anih mah ahmaa caksak, toe ahmaa to komh pae let; nganbawh kana a paek, toe ngantuisak let.
18For he maketh sore, and bindeth up: he woundeth, and his hands make whole.
19Anih mah vai tarukto raihaih thung hoiah na loisak tih; ue, vai sarihto naah doeh kasae na tongh mak ai.
19He shall deliver thee in six troubles: yea, in seven there shall no evil touch thee.
20Anih mah khokhaa naah duekhaih thung hoiah na pahlong tih; misatuk naah doeh sumsen thacakhaih thung hoiah pahlong tih.
20In famine he shall redeem thee from death: and in war from the power of the sword.
21Lok amlai palai thung hoiah na pakaa ueloe, amrohaih phak naah, na zii mak ai.
21Thou shalt be hid from the scourge of the tongue: neither shalt thou be afraid of destruction when it cometh.
22Amrohaih hoi khokhaahaih to na pahnui thuih ueloe, long nui ih hmawsaeng moinawk doeh na zii mak ai.
22At destruction and famine thou shalt laugh: neither shalt thou be afraid of the beasts of the earth.
23Azawn ih thlungnawk loe lokmaihaih ampui baktiah om ueloe, taw ih moisannawk loe kamongah nang hoi nawnto om o tih.
23For thou shalt be in league with the stones of the field: and the beasts of the field shall be at peace with thee.
24Na ohhaih kahni im loe misa monghaih hoiah oh, tiah na panoek ueloe, na ohhaih ahmuen na phak naah, palungboenghaih om mak ai.
24And thou shalt know that thy tabernacle shall be in peace; and thou shalt visit thy habitation, and shalt not sin.
25Nang ih atiinawk loe paroeai pop o tih, na caanawk loe long ih phroh baktiah om o tih, tiah na panoek tih.
25Thou shalt know also that thy seed shall be great, and thine offspring as the grass of the earth.
26Atue phak naah aah ih cang baktiah, na mitong naah loe taprong ah na caeh tih.
26Thou shalt come to thy grave in a full age, like as a shock of corn cometh in in his season.
27Khenah, hae hmuen hae ka pakrong o, to hmuen loe oh tangtang; to pongah tahngai ah loe, na hoih haih hanah pakuem ah, tiah a naa.
27Lo this, we have searched it, so it is; hear it, and know thou it for thy good.
