< Job 2 >

1 Nikhat van thutanna in na miho chu acham tah uvin Pakai masangah ahung kilah kit uvin, hiche a chun hehhatpa Satan chu amaho lah a ahung pange.
AGAIN there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the Lord, and Satan came also among them to present himself before the Lord.
2 “Hoiya konna hung nahim?” tin Pakaiyin Satan adonge. Satan in Pakai chu adonbut in, “Keiman leiset kaga khollen; thilsoh jouse kaga velhan ahi” ati.
And the Lord said unto Satan, From whence comest thou? And Satan answered the Lord, and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it.
3 Hichun Pakaiyin Satan adongin, “Kasohpa Job khu namu tah em? Amahi leiset chunga dinga miphapen ahin, nolnabei, milung thengsel ahi, Pathen agingin thilse jouse a konna kikangse jing mi ahi, ajeh beija nangin amakhu chonset sah teidinga nagot vang'in tunjong lungtheng sellin aum jinge,” ati.
And the Lord said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and escheweth evil? and still he holdeth fast his integrity, although thou movedst me against him, to destroy him without cause.
4 Satan in Pakai adonbut in “Vun dinga vun ahi, mihem khat in ahinkho ahuhdohna dinga anei agou jouse apeh doh teiding ahi.
And Satan answered the Lord, and said, Skin for skin, yea, all that a man hath will he give for his life.
5 Ahin, nakhut lhangin lang adamtheina khu lahmang peh le chun namaichang laitaha nagaosap tei ding ahi!” ati.
But put forth thine hand now, and touch his bone and his flesh, and he will curse thee to thy face.
6 “Aphai, amapa chunga hin nalungdei tah boltan; ahin ahinkho vang khen peh in,” tin Pakaiyin Satan aseipeh e.
And the Lord said unto Satan, Behold, he is in thine hand; but save his life.
7 Hijeh chun Satan chun Pakai angsung adalhan, chule Job chu nat hoisetah uilut alujanga kipat akengto geijin a onglai beihellin aphah sahtai.
So went Satan forth from the presence of the Lord, and smote Job with sore boils from the sole of his foot unto his crown.
8 Job in atahsa vun chu bel hallin akhot in vut bollah a atouve.
And he took him a potsherd to scrape himself withal; and he sat down among the ashes.
9 “Tuchan geija lungtheng sella naum jing nahlai ding ham? Pathen chu gaosap in lang thijengin,” tin ajinun Job jah a chun aseije.
Then said his wife unto him, Dost thou still retain thine integrity? curse God, and die.
10 Ahinlah Job in adonbut in, “Nangin numei ngol khat thusei bangin naseije, Pathen khutna konna chu einin thil pha jeng jeng ikisanna chule thilse kisan louva ium ding ham?” ati. Thilsoh hijat chunga jong hin Job in thilse aseipoi.
But he said unto her, Thou speakest as one of the foolish women speaketh. What? shall we receive good at the hand of God, and shall we not receive evil? In all this did not Job sin with his lips.
11 Job agolte thum hon lungset umtah anat thohgim thu ajahdoh phat uvin ama ama in cheh a konin alhamon dingle alhembi dingin thakhat'in ahung kikhom uve. Amin hou chu Teman mi Eliphaz, Shuh mi Bildad chule Naamath mi Zophar ahiuve.
Now when Job’s three friends heard of all this evil that was come upon him, they came every one from his own place; Eliphaz the Temanite, and Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite: for they had made an appointment together to come to mourn with him and to comfort him.
12 Amahon galla konna Job ahinmu u chun alim amel jong ahethei tapouve. Alung gentheihu nau vetsahna in akap loi loi jengun, aluchung uva huilah a chun leivui atheuvin ahi.
And when they lifted up their eyes afar off, and knew him not, they lifted up their voice, and wept; and they rent every one his mantle, and sprinkled dust upon their heads toward heaven.
13 Chuti chun nisagi leh jan sagi tolla atou piuvin, anat genthei hoiset behseh amujeh u chun khatna khatcha jong Job koma thu chengkhat jeng cha seija jong aumpouve; ijeh inem itile anat chu hoise asah behseh jengu ahi.
So they sat down with him upon the ground seven days and seven nights, and none spake a word unto him: for they saw that his grief was very great.
