Baibal Olcim (Matupi Chin)
King James Version with Apocrypha
1Shuhi Bildad loh a doo tih,
1Then answered Bildad the Shuhite, and said,
2“He he me hil nim na thui ve? Na ka kah ol tah khohli bangla khuet coeng.
2How long wilt thou speak these things ? and how long shall the words of thy mouth be like a strong wind?
3Pathen loh tiktamnah he a khun sak tih Tlungthang loh duengnah te a khun sak mai a?
3Doth God pervert judgment? or doth the Almighty pervert justice?
4Na ca rhoek te anih taengah a tholh vaengah amih te amamih kah boekoek kut dongla a tueih.
4If thy children have sinned against him, and he have cast them away for their transgression;
5Namah loh Pathen te na toem tih Tlungthang te na hloep mak atah,
5If thou wouldest seek unto God betimes, and make thy supplication to the Almighty;
6Na cil tih na thuem koinih nang yueng la haenghang vetih na duengnah rhamtlim te n'thuung pataeng pawn ni.
6If thou wert pure and upright; surely now he would awake for thee, and make the habitation of thy righteousness prosperous.
7Na tongnah te a yiit om cakhaw na hmailong te muep rhoeng ni.
7Though thy beginning was small, yet thy latter end should greatly increase.
8Lamhma kah cadil taengah dawt laeh lamtah a napa rhoek khenah te soepsoei laeh.
8For enquire, I pray thee, of the former age, and prepare thyself to the search of their fathers:
9Mamih loh n'hlaem paek kah long khaw m'ming uh moenih, mamih kah khohnin diklai dongkah mueihlip banghui ni.
9(For we are but of yesterday, and know nothing, because our days upon earth are a shadow:)
10Amih te na thuinuet pawt tih a, nang taengah a thui vetih amih kah lungbuei lamloh olthui te a khueh eh?
10Shall not they teach thee, and tell thee, and utter words out of their heart?
11Nongtui pawt ah talik thawn tih tui om mueh ah capu rhoeng a?
11Can the rush grow up without mire? can the flag grow without water?
12Te te a duei pueng ah a hlaek pawt akhaw sulrham boeih hmai ah rhae coeng.
12Whilst it is yet in his greenness, and not cut down, it withereth before any other herb.
13Pathen aka hnilh boeih kah caehlong neh lailak kah ngaiuepnah tah bing tangloeng.
13So are the paths of all that forget God; and the hypocrite’s hope shall perish:
14A uepnah neh a pangtungnah bumba im te khaw bawtboeng.
14Whose hope shall be cut off, and whose trust shall be a spider’s web.
15A im dongah hangdang dae pai thai pawh. Te te a kuel dae thoo pawh.
15He shall lean upon his house, but it shall not stand: he shall hold it fast, but it shall not endure.
16Anih te khosae li ah thingsup tih a dum ah a dawn sai.
16He is green before the sun, and his branch shooteth forth in his garden.
17A yung loh lungkuk dongah a ven tih lungto im te a hmuh.
17His roots are wrapped about the heap, and seeth the place of stones.
18Te te a hmuen lamloh a phuk van vaengah, “Nang kam hmu moenih,” anih te a namnah.
18If he destroy him from his place, then it shall deny him, saying , I have not seen thee.
19He he a longpuei kah omthennah coeng koinih laipi tloe lamloh a poe uh khaming.
19Behold, this is the joy of his way, and out of the earth shall others grow.
20Pathen loh cuemthuek hnawt ngawn pawt tih thaehuet kut te a moem moenih.
20Behold, God will not cast away a perfect man , neither will he help the evil doers:
21Na ka dongah nueihbu neh na hmui dongah tamlung bae.
21Till he fill thy mouth with laughing, and thy lips with rejoicing.
22Na lunguet rhoek loh yahpohnah a bai uh vetih halang kah dap tah om mahpawh,” a ti.
22They that hate thee shall be clothed with shame; and the dwelling place of the wicked shall come to nought.
