1Job loh amah kah a huel ham te a koei tih,
1And Job again took up his parable, and said:
2“Pathen kah hingnah loh kai kah laitloeknah a khoe tih Tlungthang lo ka hinglu a phaep.
2As God liveth, who hath taken away my right; and the Almighty, who hath dealt bitterly with me;
3Ka khuikah ka hiil boeih neh ka hnarhong khuikah he Pathen mueihla ni.
3All the while my breath is in me, and the spirit of God is in my nostrils,
4Ka hmuilai loh dumlai thui boel saeh lamtah ka lai loh palyal la caitawk boel saeh.
4Surely my lips shall not speak unrighteousness, neither shall my tongue utter deceit;
5Nangmih te kan tang sak atah kai ham savisava. Ka pal duela ka muelhtuetnah he kamah lamloh ka khoe mahpawh.
5Far be it from me that I should justify you; till I die I will not put away mine integrity from me.
6Ka duengnah te ka kop vetih ka hlah mahpawh. Kamah tue lamlong tah ka thinko he veet voel mahpawh.
6My righteousness I hold fast, and will not let it go; my heart shall not reproach me so long as I live.
7Ka thunkha te a halang bangla, kai aka tlai thil khaw a boethae bangla om saeh.
7Let mine enemy be as the wicked, and let him that riseth up against me be as the unrighteous.
8Lailak kah ngaiuepnah tah menim? A mueluem tih Pathen loh a hinglu a bong pah.
8For what is the hope of the godless, though he get him gain, when God taketh away his soul?
9A soah citcai loh a pai vaengah a pangngawlnah te Pathen loh a hnatun nim?
9Will God hear his cry, when trouble cometh upon him?
10Tlungthang dongah pang a dok vetih, a tue boeih ah Pathen a khue bitni.
10Will he have his delight in the Almighty, and call upon God at all times?
11Pathen kah kut te nangmih kan thuinuet phoe vetih, Tlungthang taengkah te ka phah mahpawh.
11I will teach you concerning the hand of God; that which is with the Almighty will I not conceal.
12Nangmih boeih khaw na hmuh vaengah balae tih a honghi neh na hoemdawk he.
12Behold, all ye yourselves have seen it; why then are ye become altogether vain?
13Halang hlang loh Pathen taeng lamkah khoyo neh hlanghaeng loh Tlungthang taeng lamkah rho a dang he,
13This is the portion of a wicked man with God, and the heritage of oppressors, which they receive from the Almighty.
14a ca te cunghang hamla a ping pah tih a cadil cahma khaw buh cung uh mahpawh.
14If his children be multiplied, it is for the sword; and his offspring shall not have bread enough.
15A rhaengnaeng, a rhaengnaeng te dueknah loh a up vetih a nuhmai rhoek loh rhah uh mahpawh.
15Those that remain of him shall be buried by pestilence, and his widows shall make no lamentation.
16Cak te laipi bangla hmoeng vetih hnicu te dikpo bangla soe ni.
16Though he heap up silver as the dust, and prepare raiment as the clay;
17Tawn cakhaw aka dueng loh a bai vetih cak te ommongsitoe loh a tael ni.
17He may prepare it, but the just shall put it on, and the innocent shall divide the silver.
18A im te ning bangla a sak tih dungtlungim bangla rhalrhing a khueh.
18He buildeth his house as a moth, and as a booth which the keeper maketh.
19Hlanglen la yalh dae khoem uh mahpawh. A mik a dai dae amah om voel pawh.
19He lieth down rich, but there shall be not to gather; he openeth his eyes, and his wealth is not.
20Anih te tui bangla mueirhih loh a phatawt khoyin ah cangpalam loh a pom.
20Terrors overtake him like waters; a tempest stealeth him away in the night.
21Anih te kanghawn loh a khuen tih khum. Te vaengah anih te amah hmuen lamloh a yawn.
21The east wind carrieth him away, and he departeth; and it sweepeth him out of his place.
22Anih te a voeih tih lungma a ti pawt dongah a kut lamloh yong la yong coeng.
22Yea, it hurleth at him, and spareth not; he would fain flee from its power.
23A taengah a kut a paeng uh tih anih te amah hmuen lamloh kut a ving thil.
23Men shall clap their hands at him, and shall hiss him out of his place.
