Baibal Olcim (Matupi Chin)
1The Baldad the Suhite answered, and said:
1Shuhi Bildad loh a doo tih,
2How long wilt thou speak these things, and how long shall the words of thy mouth be like a strong wind?
2“He he me hil nim na thui ve? Na ka kah ol tah khohli bangla khuet coeng.
3Doth God pervert judgment, or doth the Almighty overthrow that which is just?
3Pathen loh tiktamnah he a khun sak tih Tlungthang loh duengnah te a khun sak mai a?
4Although thy children have sinned against him, and he hath left them in the hand of their iniquity:
4Na ca rhoek te anih taengah a tholh vaengah amih te amamih kah boekoek kut dongla a tueih.
5Yet if thou wilt arise early to God, and wilt beseech the Almighty:
5Namah loh Pathen te na toem tih Tlungthang te na hloep mak atah,
6If thou wilt walk clean and upright, he will presently awake onto thee, and will make the dwelling of thy justice peaceable:
6Na cil tih na thuem koinih nang yueng la haenghang vetih na duengnah rhamtlim te n'thuung pataeng pawn ni.
7Insomuch, that if thy former things were small, thy latter things would be multiplied exceedingly.
7Na tongnah te a yiit om cakhaw na hmailong te muep rhoeng ni.
8For inquire of the former generation, and search diligently into the memory of the fathers:
8Lamhma kah cadil taengah dawt laeh lamtah a napa rhoek khenah te soepsoei laeh.
9(For we are but of yesterday, and are ignorant that our days upon earth are but a shadow:)
9Mamih loh n'hlaem paek kah long khaw m'ming uh moenih, mamih kah khohnin diklai dongkah mueihlip banghui ni.
10And they shall teach thee: they shall speak to thee, and utter words out of their hearts.
10Amih te na thuinuet pawt tih a, nang taengah a thui vetih amih kah lungbuei lamloh olthui te a khueh eh?
11Can the rush be green without moisture? or a sedge-bush grow without water?
11Nongtui pawt ah talik thawn tih tui om mueh ah capu rhoeng a?
12When it is yet in flower, and is not plucked up with the hand, it withereth before all herbs.
12Te te a duei pueng ah a hlaek pawt akhaw sulrham boeih hmai ah rhae coeng.
13Even so are the ways of all that forget God, and the hope of the hypocrite shall perish:
13Pathen aka hnilh boeih kah caehlong neh lailak kah ngaiuepnah tah bing tangloeng.
14His folly shall not please him, and his trust shall be like the spider’s web.
14A uepnah neh a pangtungnah bumba im te khaw bawtboeng.
15He shall lean upon his house, and it shall not stand: he shall prop it up, and it shall not rise:
15A im dongah hangdang dae pai thai pawh. Te te a kuel dae thoo pawh.
16He seemeth to have moisture before the sun cometh, and at his rising his blossom shall shoot forth.
16Anih te khosae li ah thingsup tih a dum ah a dawn sai.
17His roots shall be thick upon a heap of stones, and among the stones he shall abide.
17A yung loh lungkuk dongah a ven tih lungto im te a hmuh.
18If one swallow him up out of his place, he shall deny him, and shall say: I know thee not.
18Te te a hmuen lamloh a phuk van vaengah, “Nang kam hmu moenih,” anih te a namnah.
19For this is the joy of his way, that others may spring again out of the earth.
19He he a longpuei kah omthennah coeng koinih laipi tloe lamloh a poe uh khaming.
20God will not cast away the simple, nor reach out his hand to the evildoer:
20Pathen loh cuemthuek hnawt ngawn pawt tih thaehuet kut te a moem moenih.
21Until thy mouth be filled with laughter, and thy lips with rejoicing.
21Na ka dongah nueihbu neh na hmui dongah tamlung bae.
22They that hate thee, shall be clothed with confusion: and the dwelling of the wicked shall not stand.
22Na lunguet rhoek loh yahpohnah a bai uh vetih halang kah dap tah om mahpawh,” a ti.
