Baibal Olcim (Matupi Chin)
1“Man, who is born of a woman, is of few days, and full of trouble.
1Huta kah a sak hlang he a khohnin toi tih khoponah khaw hah.
2He grows up like a flower, and is cut down. He also flees like a shadow, and doesn’t continue.
2Rhaipai bangla phuelh tih a oh uh. Khokhawn bangla yong tih pai voel pawh.
3Do you open your eyes on such a one, and bring me into judgment with you?
3Te soah ngawn tah na mik tueng tih kai he na taengkah laitloeknah dongla na khuen.
4Who can bring a clean thing out of an unclean? Not one.
4Rhalawt lamloh a cuem la aka khueh te unim? Pakhat pataeng om pawh.
5Seeing his days are determined, the number of his months is with you, and you have appointed his bounds that he can’t pass.
5A khohnin neh a hla taenah khaw namah taengah hangdang. A oltlueh te a oltlueh bangla na saii tih poe thai pawh.
6Look away from him, that he may rest, until he accomplishes, as a hireling, his day.
6Anih lamloh vawl mangthong lamtah amah hnin at kutloh bangla a ngaingaih hil toeng saeh.
7“For there is hope for a tree if it is cut down, that it will sprout again, that the tender branch of it will not cease.
7Thing ham tah a vung akhaw ngaiuepnah om pueng. Te dongah koep mikhing vetih a dawn khaw ngoeng mahpawh.
8Though its root grows old in the earth, and its stock dies in the ground,
8Diklai khuiah a yung patong mai tih laipi khuiah a ngo duek cakhaw,
9yet through the scent of water it will bud, and sprout boughs like a plant.
9tui bo ah duei vetih thinghloe bangla a pae cawn ni.
10But man dies, and is laid low. Yes, man gives up the spirit, and where is he?
10Tedae hlang tah duek tih rhaa uh coeng. Hlang he a pal phoeiah tah melam a om.
11As the waters fail from the sea, and the river wastes and dries up,
11Tuitunli lamkah tui khaw khawk dae tuiva loh a khah vaengah tah kak.
12so man lies down and doesn’t rise. Until the heavens are no more, they will not awake, nor be roused out of their sleep.
12Hlang khaw yalh tih thoo voel pawh. Vaan a om pawt due khaw haenghang pawh. Amih te ih kung lamloh haenghang uh mahpawh.
13“Oh that you would hide me in Sheol, that you would keep me secret until your wrath is past, that you would appoint me a set time and remember me!
13Unim saelkhui ah a paek lah ve? Kai he nan khoem lah vetih na thintoek a mael duela kai nan thuh lah mako. Kai hamla oltlueh na khueh vetih kai nan poek mako.
14If a man dies, will he live again? I would wait all the days of my warfare, until my release should come.
14Hlang he duek koinih hing venim? Kamah kah caempuei hnin boeih he ka thovaelnah a pawk hil ka lamtawn bitni.
15You would call, and I would answer you. You would have a desire for the work of your hands.
15Nan khue vaengah kai loh nang te ka doo bitni. Na kut dongkah bibi dongah na moo bitni.
16But now you count my steps. Don’t you watch over my sin?
16Ka khokan he na tae pawn vetih ka tholhnah khaw na dawn mahpawh.
17My disobedience is sealed up in a bag. You fasten up my iniquity.
17Ka boekoek hnocun khuiah catui a hnah thil tih kai kathaesainah na dah thil bitni.
18“But the mountain falling comes to nothing. The rock is removed out of its place.
18Tedae Tlang khaw cungku tih moelh. Lungpang pataeng a hmuen lamloh thoeih.
19The waters wear the stones. The torrents of it wash away the dust of the earth. So you destroy the hope of man.
19Lungto khaw tui loh a hoh tih a kongnawt loh diklai laipi a yo. Te dongah hlanghing kah ngaiuepnah na pal sak.
20You forever prevail against him, and he departs. You change his face, and send him away.
20Anih te a yoeyah la na khulae tih a hmai a tal la a van daengah anih te na tueih.
21His sons come to honor, and he doesn’t know it. They are brought low, but he doesn’t perceive it of them.
21A ca rhoek a thangpom uh dae a ming moenih. Muei uh cakhaw amih a yakming moenih.
22But his flesh on him has pain, and his soul within him mourns.”
22Tedae a pumsa tah a taengah tih thak a khoeih tih a hinglu khaw amah hamla nguekcoi,” a ti.
