1Job again took up his parable, and said,
1Job mah a thuih ih patahhaih lok to thuih patomh poe;
2“As God lives, who has taken away my right, the Almighty, who has made my soul bitter
2ka toenghaih ang lak pae ving; ka hinghaih patangkhangsak, Thacak Sithaw loe hing pongah,
3(for the length of my life is still in me, and the spirit of God is in my nostrils);
3ka hinghaih takhi ka takpum thungah oh nathung, Sithaw ih takhi ka hnaqong thungah oh nathung,
4surely my lips will not speak unrighteousness, neither will my tongue utter deceit.
4ka pahni mah kahoih ai hmuen to thui mak ai, ka palai mah alinghaih lok thui mak ai.
5Far be it from me that I should justify you. Until I die I will not put away my integrity from me.
5Nang loe na toeng tiah, thuih han ih lok to Sithaw mah pakaa nasoe; ka duek khoek to ka toenghaih ka pahnawt sut mak ai.
6I hold fast to my righteousness, and will not let it go. My heart will not reproach me so long as I live.
6Ka toenghaih to kacakah ka patawnh, ka prawt ving mak ai; ka hing thung ka palung mah kai hae kasae thui mak ai.
7“Let my enemy be as the wicked. Let him who rises up against me be as the unrighteous.
7Ka misanawk loe kasae kami ah om o nasoe loe, kai tuk han angthawk kaminawk loe katoeng ai kami ah om o nasoe.
8For what is the hope of the godless, when he is cut off, when God takes away his life?
8Angsah cop kami loe duek moe, Sithaw mah a hinghaih lak pae ving naah, oephaih timaw tawn vop tih?
9Will God hear his cry when trouble comes on him?
9Anih nuiah raihaih phak naah, Sithaw mah anih qahhaih lok to tahngai pae maw?
10Will he delight himself in the Almighty, and call on God at all times?
10Anih loe Thacak Sithaw khaeah anghoe thai tih maw? Anih mah Sithaw to kawk khing tih maw?
11I will teach you about the hand of God. I will not conceal that which is with the Almighty.
11Sithaw thacakhaih to kang patuek han; Thacak Sithaw poekhaih thuih hanah kang phat mak ai.
12Behold, all of you have seen it yourselves; why then have you become altogether vain?
12Khenah, nangmacae mah roe na hnuk o boeh; tipongah kavang ai lok to na thuih o loe?
13“This is the portion of a wicked man with God, the heritage of oppressors, which they receive from the Almighty.
13Sithaw mah kasae kami han paek ih taham, kasae kami mah Thacak Sithaw khae hoi hnuk han koi qawk loe hae tiah oh;
14If his children are multiplied, it is for the sword. His offspring will not be satisfied with bread.
14anih ih caanawk loe pop o parai cadoeh, sumsen hoi hum han ih ni oh o; anih ih caa patoeng kaminawk doeh caaknaek kakhawt ah tawn o mak ai.
15Those who remain of him will be buried in death. His widows will make no lamentation.
15Kahing kanghmat kaminawk loe duekhaih mah muek tih; a zu lamhmainawk loe qah o thai mak ai.
16Though he heap up silver as the dust, and prepare clothing as the clay;
16Anih mah sumkanglung to maiphu baktiah tapop moe, khukbuennawk to tangphrung long baktiah sah langlacadoeh,
17he may prepare it, but the just will put it on, and the innocent will divide the silver.
17a tawnh ih hmuen to katoeng kami mah ni angkhuk tih, zaehaih tawn ai kami mah phoisa to pazet tih.
18He builds his house as the moth, as a booth which the watchman makes.
18A sak ih im doeh bongpaha tabu baktiah om ueloe, misa toephaih im baktiah ni om tih.
19He lies down rich, but he will not do so again. He opens his eyes, and he is not.
19Hmuenmae angraeng kami iih han angsong naah loe, hmuennawk tawn mang let mak ai boeh; anih mah mik padai naah, hmuenmaenawk anghmat o boih.
20Terrors overtake him like waters. A storm steals him away in the night.
20Zitthok hmuen mah anih to tuipui baktiah uem ueloe, khoving ah takhi sae mah hmut boih tih.
21The east wind carries him away, and he departs. It sweeps him out of his place.
21Ni angyae bang ih takhi mah anih to hmuh moe, anghmat ving; a ohhaih ahmuen hoiah kaham takhi sae mah hmuh ving.
22For it hurls at him, and does not spare, as he flees away from his hand.
22Anih loe Sithaw ih ban thung hoiah loih han koeh, toe Sithaw mah tahmenhaih tawn ai ah anih to danpaek tih.
23Men will clap their hands at him, and will hiss him out of his place.
23To naah kaminawk mah ban tabaeng o thui tih, anih kawng kasae thui o ueloe, a ohhaih ahmuen hoiah haek o ving tih.
