1Then Sophar the Naamathite answered, and said:
1To naah Namaat acaeng Zophar mah,
2Shall not he that speaketh much, hear also? or shall a man full of talk be justified?
2pop parai loknawk hae pathim han ai boeh maw? Lokthui thaih kami to a zaehaih thung hoiah loisak han oh maw?
3Shall men hold their peace to thee only? and when thou hast mocked others, shall no man confute thee?
3Lok nam laihaih mah minawk lokpae ai ah anghgaisak duem thai tih maw? Kami na pahnui thuih naah, nang azatpaw han thuitaek kami om mak ai maw?
4For thou hast said: My word is pure, and I am clean in thy sight.
4Nang mah, Ka thuih ih lok loe toeng, Sithaw hmaa ah ka ciim, tiah na thuih.
5And I wish that God would speak with thee, and would open his lips to thee,
5Toe Sithaw mah lokthui nasoe loe, na pahni to paong pae nasoe,
6That he might shew thee the secrets of wisdom, and that his law is manifold, and thou mightest understand that he exacteth much less of thee, than thy iniquity deserveth.
6Anih mah panoek karai alet hnetto palunghahaih amtuengsak nasoe; to tiah ni na sakpazaehaih baktiah na tongh han ih hmuen pong tamsi ah Sithaw mah dan ang paek, tiah na panoek tih.
7Peradventure thou wilt comprehend the steps of God, and wilt find out the Almighty perfectly?
7Kathuk Sithaw ih hmuen to na hnuk thai maw? Thacak Sithaw akoephaih na panoek thai maw?
8He is higher than heaven, and what wilt thou do? he is deeper than hell, and how wilt thou know?
8Vannawk pongah kasang, timaw na sah thai tih? Hell pongah kathuk kue, timaw na panoek thai tih?
9The measure of him is longer than the earth, and broader than the sea.
9To kathuk hmuennawk tahhaih loe long pongah sawk kue moe, tuipui pongah doeh kawk kue.
10If he shall overturn all things, or shall press them together, who shall contradict him?
10Sithaw mah naeh maw, thong pakhrak maw, to tih ai boeh loe lok maw na caek nahaeloe, mi mah maw pakaa thai tih?
11For he knoweth the vanity of men, and when he seeth iniquity, doth he not consider it?
11Sithaw loe tidoeh avang ai kami to panoek; sakpazae ih hmuen doeh a hnuk; to tiah nahaeloe anih mah to hmuen to poek ai ah om tih maw?
12A vain man is lifted up into pride, and thinketh himself born free like a wild ass’s colt.
12Toe taw ih laa hrang to kami baktiah tapen naah ni, tidoeh avang ai kami loe palungha thai vop tih.
13Rut thou hast hardened thy heart, and hast spread thy hands to him.
13Toe palungthin nam khraih moe, angmah khaeah ban na payangh pacoengah,
14If thou wilt put away from thee the iniquity that is in thy hand, and lot not injustice remain in thy tabernacle:
14na ban ah sakpazaehaih om cadoeh, to zaehaih to na vah ving moe, na ohhaih kahni im ah sethaih na omsak ai nahaeloe,
15Then mayst thou lift up thy face without spot, and thou shalt be steadfast, and shalt not fear.
15coek koi om ai ah na mikhmai amtueng tih; ue, zithaih om ai ah, kacakah nang doe tih:
16Thou shalt also forget misery, and remember it only as waters that are passed away.
16raihaih to na pahnet ueloe, kalaem tangcae tui baktiah ni na poek tih boeh.
17And brightness like that of the noonday, shall arise to thee at evening: and when thou shalt think thyself consumed, thou shalt rise as the day star.
17Na hinghaih loe athun ih ni aengh pongah aang kue tih; vaihi kaving ah na oh cadoeh, akhawnbang baktiah aang tih.
18And thou shalt have confidence, hope being set before thee, and being buried thou shalt sleep secure.
18Oephaih oh pongah, monghaih hoiah na om tih; ue, angmah na khenzawn ueloe, ngancuem ah nang hak tih boeh.
19Thou shalt rest, and there shall be none to make thee afraid: and many shall entreat thy face.
19Nang song naah, mi mah doeh zithaih na paek mak ai; ue, kami paroeai mah na ven o tih.
20But the eyes of the wicked shall decay, and the way to escape shall fail them, and their hope the abomination of the soul.
20Toe kasae kami ih mik loe thazok tih, loih o mak ai; nihcae oephaih doeh dueh ving tih, tiah a naa.
