Asang Khongca Bible (Eastern Khumi Chin, 2019)
1But Job answered and said,
1To naah Job mah,
2Hear diligently my speech, and let this be your consolations.
2ka lok hae kahoih ah tahngai ah; nang pathloephaih lok loe hae tiah om nasoe.
3Suffer me that I may speak; and after that I have spoken, mock on.
3Tahngai ah, lok ka thuih han vop; koeh boeh loe ka thuih pacoengah, na pahnui thui ah.
4As for me, is my complaint to man? and if it were so , why should not my spirit be troubled?
4Kai loe kami maw laisaep thuih? To tiah om nahaeloe, palung duem ai ah om tih maw?
5Mark me, and be astonished, and lay your hand upon your mouth.
5Kai hae na khen ah loe, dawnrai ah; pakha to ban hoi tamuep ah.
6Even when I remember I am afraid, and trembling taketh hold on my flesh.
6Hae kawng hae ka poek naah ka zit moe; ka takpum boih tasoeh.
7Wherefore do the wicked live, become old, yea, are mighty in power?
7Tipongah kasae kaminawk loe hinglung sawk o, mitong khoek to ngantui o moe, angraeng o pacoengah, thacak o loe?
8Their seed is established in their sight with them, and their offspring before their eyes.
8Anih ih caanawk loe angmah taengah khosak o moe, angmah ih acaengnawk doeh a mikhnuk ah qoeng o tahang.
9Their houses are safe from fear, neither is the rod of God upon them.
9A imnawk doeh misa zithaih om ai, Sithaw danpaekhaih thingboeng doeh nihcae nuiah krah ai.
10Their bull gendereth, and faileth not; their cow calveth, and casteth not her calf.
10Nihcae ih maitaw tae loe apet ai ah apaa cuk o moe, kapomh maitaw doeh acaa zuun vai ai.
11They send forth their little ones like a flock, and their children dance.
11Nihcae ih caanawk loe tuu baktiah caeh o moe, hnawh o.
12They take the timbrel and harp, and rejoice at the sound of the organ.
12Cingceng to boh o, katoeng kruek hoiah laa a sak o moe, tamoi lok hoiah anghoe o.
13They spend their days in wealth, and in a moment go down to the grave.
13Nihcae loe taprong ah laem o ai karoek to, hmuenmae angraenghaih hoiah khosak o.
14Therefore they say unto God, Depart from us; for we desire not the knowledge of thy ways.
14Nihcae loe Sithaw khaeah, Na caeh taak ah, Na loklam panoek han ka koeh o ai.
15What is the Almighty, that we should serve him? and what profit should we have, if we pray unto him?
15Thacak Sithaw loe kawbangmaw oh moe, a tok ka sak pae o han loe? Anih khaeah lawk ka thuih o nahaeloe, tih atho maw om tih, tiah a thuih o.
16Lo, their good is not in their hand: the counsel of the wicked is far from me.
16Khenah, nihcae angraenghaih loe angmacae ban ah om poe ai; kazae kaminawk ih poekhaih to angqoi taak boeh.
17How oft is the candle of the wicked put out! and how oft cometh their destruction upon them! God distributeth sorrows in his anger.
17Sithaw mah kasae kaminawk ih hmaithaw to paduek pae, anih palungphui pongah nihcae to amrosak moe, nihcae nuiah vai nazetto maw raihaih to phaksak?
18They are as stubble before the wind, and as chaff that the storm carrieth away.
18Nihcae loe takhi mah hmuh ih anghnoeng baktiah oh o moe, takhi sae mah hmuh ih tavai baktiah ni oh o.
19God layeth up his iniquity for his children: he rewardeth him, and he shall know it .
19Nangcae mah loe, zaehaih sah kaminawk zuengah a caanawk to Sithaw mah danpaek tih, tiah na thuih o; toe kaimah loe a sak pazaehaih panoek thai hanah, Sithaw mah zaehaih sah kami angmah roe to danpaek nasoe, tiah ka thuih.
20His eyes shall see his destruction, and he shall drink of the wrath of the Almighty.
20Angmah amrohaih to a mik hoi roe hnu nasoe loe, Thacak Sithaw palungphuihaih to nae nasoe.
21For what pleasure hath he in his house after him, when the number of his months is cut off in the midst?
21Anih han paek ih ani hoi akhrah akoep naah loe, anih mah a caeh taak ih a caanawk hanah timaw sah pae thai tih?
22Shall any teach God knowledge? seeing he judgeth those that are high.
22Mi mah maw hmuensang ah kaom kaminawk lokcaekkung Sithaw to patuk thai tih?
23One dieth in his full strength, being wholly at ease and quiet.
23Kami maeto loe tha oh li, misa monghaih hoiah khosak moe, nawm li nathuem,
24His breasts are full of milk, and his bones are moistened with marrow.
24A takpum kahoih ah qoeng tahang li moe, ahuhnawk tangkhring hoiah koi li nathuem ah duek ving.
25And another dieth in the bitterness of his soul, and never eateth with pleasure.
25Kalah kami maeto bae loe khosak nawmhaih tong vai ai, a hinghaih patangkhang pongah duek.
26They shall lie down alike in the dust, and the worms shall cover them.
26Nihnik loe maiphu thungah angsong hoi moe, sadong mah khuk khoep boeh.
27Behold, I know your thoughts, and the devices which ye wrongfully imagine against me.
27Khenah, ka nuiah sak han na pacaeng ih kahoih ai hmuen to ka panoek.
28For ye say, Where is the house of the prince? and where are the dwelling places of the wicked?
28Nang mah, angraeng ih im naa ah maw oh, kasae kaminawk ih im naa ah maw oh? tiah na thuih.
29Have ye not asked them that go by the way? and do ye not know their tokens,
29Kholong caeh kaminawk to lok na dueng o vai ai maw? A sak o ih angmathaih to na panoek o ai maw?
30That the wicked is reserved to the day of destruction? they shall be brought forth to the day of wrath.
30Kahoih ai kami loe amrohaih ani hanah pahoe boeh, palungphuihaih ani hanah suek boeh pongah, anih loe vaihi loih tih boeh, tiah na poek o ai maw?
31Who shall declare his way to his face? and who shall repay him what he hath done?
31A sak ih kahoih ai hmuen to mi mah maw taphong pae tih? A sak ih zaehaih baktih toengah mi mah maw pathok tih?
32Yet shall he be brought to the grave, and shall remain in the tomb.
32Toe anih loe taprong ah phak naah doeh, tangprong toepkung to suem pae o tih.
33The clods of the valley shall be sweet unto him, and every man shall draw after him, as there are innumerable before him.
33Azawn ih long loe anih hanah luep, kami boih anih hnukah patom o ueloe, anih hmaa ah kroek laek ai kaminawk caeh o tih.
34How then comfort ye me in vain, seeing in your answers there remaineth falsehood?
34To tiah nahaeloe tih han ih azom pui ah kaom lok hoiah nang pathloep o loe? Nang pathimhaih lok ah tangtang to om ai, amsawnlok cing ni oh, tiah a naa.
