1He dongah ka lungbuei lakueng tih a hmuen lamloh cungpet.
1At this also my heart trembleth, and is moved out of its place.
2A ol dongkah khoponah te hnatun hnatun. A ka lamloh caitawknah thoeng.
2Hear attentively the noise of His voice, and the sound that goeth out of His mouth.
3Vaan boeih hmuiah a hlah tih a vangnah loh diklai hmoi duela pawk.
3He sendeth it forth under the whole heaven, and His lightning unto the ends of the earth.
4A hnukkah a kawk ol khaw a hoemdamnah ol neh hum tih a ol a yaak vaengah rhaek uelh sak boeh.
4After it a voice roareth; He thundereth with the voice of His majesty; and He stayeth them not when His voice is heard.
5Pathen loh a ol neh khobaerhambae a saii khungdaeng tih hum dae m'ming uh moenih.
5God thundereth marvellously with His voice; great things doeth He, which we cannot comprehend.
6Vuelsong neh khotlan khonal te, 'Diklai ah om saeh,’ a ti vaengah khotlan khonal khaw a sarhi tak.
6For He saith to the snow: 'Fall thou on the earth'; likewise to the shower of rain, and to the showers of His mighty rain.
7Amah kutngo hlang boeih ming sak ham hlang boeih kah kut te rhodaek a soei pah.
7He sealeth up the hand of every man, that all men whom He hath made may know it.
8Te vaengah mulhing khaw a khui la kun tih a khuisaek ah kho a sak.
8Then the beasts go into coverts, and remain in their dens.
9Cangpalam te imkhui lamloh, khosik te tlangpuei lamloh ha thoeng.
9Out of the Chamber cometh the storm; and cold out of the north.
10Pathen kah hiil lamloh rhaelnu khaw a khueh tih tui daang mangdaeng mangtok la om.
10By the breath of God ice is given, and the breadth of the waters is straitened.
11Khomai te cingtui loh a rhih sak tih cingmai loh amah kah vangnah te a taekyak.
11Yea, He ladeth the thick cloud with moister, He spreadeth abroad the cloud of His lightning;
12Te khaw diklai kah lunglai hman ah a uen boeih te saii hamla a niing, a niing dongah kuluk la a hil.
12And they are turned round about by His guidance, that they may do whatsoever He commandeth them upon the face of the habitable world:
13Te te caitueng lam khaw, a khohmuen ham khaw, sitlohnah ham khaw a thoeng sak.
13Whether it be for correction, or for His earth, or for mercy, that He cause it to come.
14Job, he he hnakaeng lah. Pai lamtah Pathen kah khobaerhambae he yakming lah.
14Hearken unto this, O Job; stand still, and consider the wondrous works of God.
15Te rhoek soah Pathen loh a khueh tih a cingmai kah vangnah a sae te na ming a?
15Dost thou know how God enjoineth them, and causeth the lightning of His cloud to shine?
16Poeknah rhuemtuet, mangvawt khomai a haainah te na ming a?
16Dost thou know the balancings of the clouds, the wondrous works of Him who is perfect in knowledge?
17Tuithim loh khohmuen a mong sak vaengah na himbai te aka bae sak,
17Thou whose garments are warm, when the earth is still by reason of the south wind;
18Hmaidan a hlawn bangla khomong a thah la amah taengah na nulh thai aya?
18Canst thou with Him spread out the sky, which is strong as a molten mirror?
19Amah taengah metla n'thui ham khaw kaimih tueng lah. Hmaisuep hmai ah n'tawn uh thai pawt oe.
19Teach us what we shall say unto Him; for we cannot order our speech by reason of darkness.
20Hlang loh a dolh hamla thui cakhaw ka thui bangla amah taengah a tae pa aya?
20Shall it be told Him that I would speak? Or should a man wish that he were swallowed up?
21Tahae ah khaw vangnah a hmuh uh moenih. A aa te khohli loh a yawn tih a caihcil hnukkah khomong dongah tueng.
21And now men see not the light which is bright in the skies; but the wind passeth, and cleanseth them.
22Tlangpuei lamkah sui te mueithennah rhih om Pathen taengla pawk.
22Out of the north cometh golden splendour, about God is terrible majesty.
23Tlungthang te thadueng a len dongah a tiktamnah m'hmuh lek moenih. Duengnah khaw a cungkuem dongah hlang a phaep moenih.
23The Almighty, whom we cannot find out, is excellent in power, yet to judgment and plenteous justice He doeth no violence.
24Hlang rhoek loh amah te a rhih uh tangloeng dongah lungbuei aka cueih rhoek takuem khaw a sawt moenih,” a ti.
24Men do therefore fear Him; He regardeth not any that are wise of heart.
