Job 40
1 Hichun Pakaiyin Job komma aseijin:
And the Lord God answered Job, and said,
2 Hatchungnungpa chu nakinelpi nom nah laijam? Pathen thutan dihlouna podohpa nahin, ahileh donbutna ding nanei nahlai em?
Will [any one] pervert judgement with the Mighty One? and he that reproves God, let him return it for answer.
3 Hichun Job in Pakai chu adonbut in,
And Job answered and said to the Lord,
4 Keima ima hilou kahi, adonbutna ding chu iti kaholdoh jou ding ham? Kakhut in kamuh kisip ing katin,
Why do I yet plead? being rebuked even while reproving the Lord: hearing such things, whereas I am nothing: and what shall I answer to these [arguments]? I will lay my hand upon my mouth.
5 Thu tamtah kaseidoh ahitan, seibe ding kanei tapoi.
I have spoken once; but I will not do so a second time.
6 Hiti chun Pakaiyin chimpei lah a kon in Job ahin donbut in,
And the Lord yet again answered and spoke to Job out of the cloud, [saying],
7 Pasal phatah bangin nakong kigah in, keiman nangma doh ding thudoh themkhat kaneijin, chuleh nangin hiche ho chu nadonbut ding ahi.
Nay, gird up now your loins like a man; and I will ask you, and do you answer me.
8 Kathutan dihna hi tahsan louva nakoija, chule nangma dihna photchetna dinga kei themmo neichan joh ding ham?
Do not set aside my judgement: and do you think that I have dealt with you in any other way, than that you might appear to be righteous?
9 Pathen banga thahat nahin, Pathen ogin banga nangin van nagin sah thei ding ham?
Hast you an arm like the Lord's? or do you thunder with a voice like his?
10 Aphai naloupina leh nagun chenan kivon in lang, ja naumna leh aming than nan kivon temin.
Assume now a lofty bearing and power; and clothe yourself with glory and honour.
11 Nalung hanna ngoh ding hol in lang, mikiletsah teho jouse chunga chuhen.
And send forth messengers with wrath; and lay low every haughty one.
12 Mikiletsah techu namit hei chun jachat sah in lang, migiloute chu adin nauva chun chot phan.
Bring down also the proud man; and consume at once the ungodly.
13 Leivui lah a chun vui in lang, amaho chu mithigam songkul'a hunk hum den tan.
And hide them together in the earth; and fill their faces with shame.
14 Chutia chu kei jengin jong kapachat ding nahi, ijeh inem itile nabangol thahat chun nahuhuhdoh ahitai.
[Then] will I confess that your right hand can save [you].
15 Behemoth khu vetemin, nang kasem banga kasem ahin, bongchal bangin hampa ane e.
But now look at the wild beasts with you; they eat grass like oxen.
16 Akengphang athahat nale, a oipoh a aphe ho khu ven.
Behold now, his strength is in his loins, and his force is in the navel of his belly.
17 Amei jong khu Cedar thing bangin atah in, akhel teni a aphe ho khu detchet a kipheh khomahi.
He sets up his tail like a cypress; and his nerves are wrapped together.
18 Agu ho jong sum-eng long abangin atibah ho jong thihjol tobang ahi.
His sides are sides of brass; and his backbone is [as] cast iron.
19 Pathen khutsem ho lah a vetkah theipen ahin, chuleh asempa bouvin agihsal thei ahi.
This is the chief of the creation of the Lord; made to be played with by his angels.
20 Gam'a gamsa jouse lhatle namun hiche molsang hohin amaho dinga anneh phapen pen chu apeh nom u ahi.
And when he has gone up to a steep mountain, he causes joy to the quadrupeds in the deep.
21 Thambal pahcha phung noija chun akol jin, pengphung boh lah a akisel jin ahi.
He lies under trees of every kind, by the papyrus, and reed, and bulrush.
22 Vadung pang thingnem ho lah a pahcha phungho chu amadin lim in apange.
And the great trees make a shadow over him with their branches, and [so do] the bushes of the field.
23 Vadung twisoh in ama asunoh phah pon, Jordan vadung soh hen lang chup jongle alungkham deh poi.
If there should be a flood, he will not perceive it; he trust that Jordan will rush up into his mouth.
24 Koima chan amandoh joupoi, ahiloule anah avu a, thihkol abu peh a chuleh akaimang theilou ahi.
[Yet one] shall take him in his sight; [one] shall catch [him] with a cord, and pierce his nose.
