1Job loh koep a doo tih,
1Then Job answered:
2A tueng te ka ming tangloeng dae hlanghing he Pathen taengah metlam a tang thai eh?
2“Yes, I know that it is so, but how can a mortal be righteous before God?
3Amah te oelh ham ngaih cakhaw, anih te thawngkhat ah pakhat long pataeng a doo thai moenih.
3If one wished to contend with God, he could not answer Him one time out of a thousand.
4A thinko cueih tih a thadueng khaw len rhapsat. A thuung dongah anih taengah unim aka mangkhak?
4God is wise in heart and mighty in strength. Who has resisted Him and prospered?
5Tlang khaw haimo coeng tih a thintoek ah amih a maelh te khaw ming uh pawh.
5He moves mountains without their knowledge and overturns them in His anger.
6Diklai he a hmuen lamloh tlai tih a tung khaw tuen coeng.
6He shakes the earth from its place, so that its foundations tremble.
7Khomik te a uen tih thoeng pawh, aisi khaw catui tloep a hnah.
7He commands the sun not to shine; He seals off the stars.
8Vaan ke amah bueng loh a cueh tih tuitunli kah hmuensang dongah a cawt.
8He alone stretches out the heavens and treads on the waves of the sea.
9Ning buhol neh airhitbom khaw, tuithim tlungkawt khaw a saii neh.
9He is the Maker of the Bear and Orion, of the Pleiades and the constellations of the south.
10Khenah tloel duela hno len a saii tih tae lek pawt hil ah khobaerhambae coeng.
10He does great things beyond searching out, and wonders without number.
11Kai taeng long a pah mai akhaw ka hmu pawt tih a tinghil akhaw anih te ka yakming moenih.
11Were He to pass by me, I would not see Him; were He to move, I would not recognize Him.
12Paco cakhaw ulong anih a mael sak? Ulong long anih te, “Balae na saii,” a ti nah?
12If He takes away, who can stop Him? Who dares to ask Him, ‘What are You doing?’
13Pathen tah a thintoek mael pawt tih Rahab aka bom rhoek khaw a hmui, a hmui ah ngam uh.
13God does not restrain His anger; the helpers of Rahab cower beneath Him.
14Te dongah anih aisat te kai loh ka doo thai vetih a taengah ka ol ka coelh thai aya?
14How then can I answer Him or choose my arguments against Him?
15Ka tang cakhaw kai lai aka tloek taengah ka doo thai pawt tih rhennah ni ka bih.
15For even if I were right, I could not answer. I could only beg my Judge for mercy.
16Ka khue tih kai n'doo cakhaw ka ol a hnatun tila ka tangnah moenih.
16If I summoned Him and He answered me, I do not believe He would listen to my voice.
17Hlithae neh kai kai m'phop tih lunglilungla la ka tloh ping.
17For He would crush me with a tempest and multiply my wounds without cause.
18Ka mueihla he mael hamla kai m'pae pawt dae olkhaa ni kai n'kum sak.
18He does not let me catch my breath, but overwhelms me with bitterness.
19Thadueng dongah khaw len rhapsat tih laitloeknah dongah khaw unim kai aka tuentah he?
19If it is a matter of strength, He is indeed mighty! If it is a matter of justice, who can summon Him ?
20Ka ka neh ka tang akhaw ka boe hae ni, ka cuemthuek cakhaw ka kawn hae.
20Even if I were righteous, my mouth would condemn me; if I were blameless, it would declare me guilty.
21Ka cuemthuek dae ka hinglu khaw ka ming pawt tih ka hingnah khaw ka kohnue.
21Though I am blameless, I have no concern for myself; I despise my own life.
22Te dongah pakhat la, “Cuemthuek neh halang khaw amah loh a khah,” a ti.
22It is all the same, and so I say, ‘He destroys both the blameless and the wicked.’
23Rhuihet loh a duek sak buengrhuet kae vaengah ommongsitoe kah noemcainah te a tamdaeng.
23When the scourge brings sudden death, He mocks the despair of the innocent.
24Diklai he halang kut ah pae tih a laitloek kah maelhmai te a khuk. Te pawt koinih amah te unim?
24The earth is given into the hand of the wicked; He blindfolds its judges. If it is not He, then who is it?
25Ka khohnin khaw aka yong lakah bawn tih a yong dongah a then khaw hmuh uh pawh.
25My days are swifter than a runner; they flee without seeing good.
26Sangpho canghlong bangla tinghil tih, atha bangla caak dongah cu.
26They sweep by like boats of papyrus, like an eagle swooping down on its prey.
27“Kai he ka kohuetnah ka hnilh pawn eh, ka maelhmai ka hlam saeh lamtah ngaidip saeh,’ ka ti akhaw,
27If I were to say, ‘I will forget my complaint and change my expression and smile,’
28Ka nganboh he boeih ka rhih tih kai nan hmil mahpawh tila ka ming.
28I would still dread all my sufferings; I know that You will not acquit me.
29Kai ka boe coeng dae balae tih a honghi nen he ka kohnue eh?
29Since I am already found guilty, why should I labor in vain?
30Vuelsong tui dongah ka hluk vetih ka kut lunghuem neh ka cil cakhaw,
30If I should wash myself with snow and cleanse my hands with lye,
31vaam khuila kai nan nuem hae vetih ka himbai neh kamah khaw n'tuei uh ni.
31then You would plunge me into the pit, and even my own clothes would despise me.
32Hlang he kamah bangla a om pawt dongah anih te ka doo koinih laitloeknah la rhenten m'pawk uh ni.
32For He is not a man like me, that I can answer Him, that we can take each other to court.
33Mamih laklo ah oltloek tih mamih rhoi soah a kut aka tloeng om pawh.
33Nor is there a mediator between us, to lay his hand upon us both.
34A cungkui te kai taeng lamloh a khoe mai vetih a mueirhih loh kai n'let sak pawt mako.
34Let Him remove His rod from me, so that His terror will no longer frighten me.
35Ka thui neh anih ka rhih pawt dae kai he kamah taengah te tlam te ka om moenih.
35Then I would speak without fear of Him. But as it is, I am on my own.
