1Silver hath beginnings of its veins, and gold hath a place wherein it is melted.
1Sumkanglung takaehhaih ahmuen to oh moe, sui tui paciihaih ahmuen doeh oh tangtang.
2Iron is taken out of the earth, and stone melted with heat is turned into brass.
2Sum loe long thung hoiah takaeh moe, sumkamling loe thlung atui pacii naah ni oh.
3He hath set a time for darkness, and the end of all things he considereth, the stone also that is in the dark and the shadow of death.
3Kami mah hmaiim to sin moe, sum tacawthaih ahmuen kathuk, duekhaih tahlip khoving thungah sum to pakrong.
4The flood divideth from the people that are on their journey, those whom the food of the needy man hath forgotten, and who cannot be come at.
4Kami ohhaih ahmuen hoi kangthla, panoek ai ih ahmuen ah, qui hoiah angbangh moe, long to takaeh.
5The land, out of which bread grew in its place, hath been overturned with fire.
5Long mah caaknaek to tacawtsak, toe atlim ah loe hmai to oh.
6The stones of it are the place of sapphires, and the clods of it are gold.
6To ah kaom thlungnawk loe Sapphire thlung tacawthaih ahmuen ah oh moe, maiphu doeh sui tacawthaih maiphu ah oh.
7The bird hath not known the path, neither hath the eye of the vulture beheld it.
7Tavaa mah panoek ai ih, tahmu mah doeh hnu ai ih, loklam to oh;
8The children of the merchants have not trodden it, neither hath the lioness passed by it.
8to loklam loe kaipui mah cawh ai moe, hmawsaeng kaipui mah doeh pazui vai ai vop.
9He hath stretched forth his hand to the flint, he hath overturned mountains from the roots.
9Kami mah ban hoiah thlung to pakhoih moe, maenawk to takung khoek to takaeh boih.
10In the rocks he hath cut out rivers, and his eye hath seen every precious thing.
10Thlung to pakhoih moe, athung ah kaom atho kana hmuennawk to a hnuk.
11The depths also of rivers he hath searched, and hidden things he hath brought forth to light.
11Kalong tui to pakaa moe, hnuk ai ih hmuennawk to a lak.
12But where is wisdom to be found, and where is the place of understanding?
12Toe palunghahaih loe naa ah maw hnu thai tih? Palunghahaih ahmuen loe naa ah maw oh?
13Man knoweth not the price thereof, neither is it found in the land of them that live in delights.
13Palunghahaih atho nazetto maw oh, tito kami mah panoek thai ai; kahing kaminawk ohhaih prae ah doeh hnu thai ai.
14The depth saith: It is not in me: and the sea saith: It is not with me.
14Kathuk tui mah, Kai thungah om ai; tuipui mah doeh kai khaeah om ai, tiah thuih.
15The finest gold shall not purchase it, neither shall silver be weighed in exchange for it.
15Kaciim suitui hoiah palunghahaih to qan thai ai moe, phoisa to noek moe, paek cadoeh, palunghahaih to qan thai ai.
16It shall not be compared with the dyed colours of India, or with the most precious stone sardonyx, or the sapphire.
16Ophir ih sui hoiah doeh qan thai ai moe, atho kaom onyx hoi sapphire mah doeh qan thai ai.
17Gold or crystal cannot equal it, neither shall any vessels of gold be changed for it.
17Palunghahaih loe sui, atho kaom kawbaktih thlung hoiah doeh patah thai ai; kaciim suitui hoiah doeh alaih thai mak ai.
18High and eminent things shall not be mentioned in comparison of it: but wisdom is drawn out of secret places.
18Koral hoi pale loe thuih han koi om ai; palunghahaih atho loe thlung kathim pongah doeh atho oh kue.
19The topaz of Ethiopia shall not be equal to it, neither shall it be compared to the cleanest dyeing.
19Ethiopia ih Topaz thlung hoiah patah thai ai moe, kaciim suitui hoiah doeh qan thai ai.
20Whence then cometh wisdom? and where is the place of understanding?
20To tih nahaeloe palunghahaih loe naa bang hoiah maw angzoh? Panoekthaihaih ahmuen loe naa ah maw oh?
21It is hid from the eyes of all living. and the fowls of the air know it not.
21Palunghahaih loe hinghaih katawn hmuennawk boih ih mik hoiah hnu thai ai, van ih tavaanawk mah doeh hnu thai ai.
22Destruction and death have said: With our ears we have heard the fame thereof.
22Amrohaih hoi duekhaih hnik mah loe, Palunghahaih lok to naa hoi khue ni ka thaih, tiah a thuih hoi.
23God understandeth the way of it, and he knoweth the place thereof.
23Sithaw mah khue ni palunghahaih loklam to panoek moe, a ohhaih ahmuen to panoek.
24For he beholdeth the ends of the world: and looketh on all things that are under heaven.
24Anih loe long boenghaih to khet moe, van tlim ih hmuennawk boih to a hnuk.
25Who made a weight for the winds and weighed the waters by measure.
25Takhi thacakhaih to a noek moe, tuinawk to a tah.
26When he gave a law for the rain, and a way for the sounding storms.
26Kho angzohhaih dan hoi khopazih tangphra puekhaih loklam to a sak naah,
27Then he saw it, and declared, and prepared, and searched it.
27palunghahaih to a hnuk moe, amtuengsak; ue, anih mah caksak moe, a sak tanoek.
28And he said to man: Behold the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom: and to depart from evil, is understanding.
28Anih mah kami khaeah, Khenah, Angraeng zithaih loe, palunghahaih ah oh; kasae caeh taakhaih loe, panoekthaihaih ah oh, tiah a naa.
