< Job 37 >

1 At this also my heart trembleth, and is moved out of its place.
He dongah ka lungbuei lakueng tih a hmuen lamloh cungpet.
2 Hear attentively the noise of his voice, and the sound that goeth out of his mouth.
A ol dongkah khoponah te hnatun hnatun. A ka lamloh caitawknah thoeng.
3 He directeth it under the whole heaven, and his lightning to the ends of the earth.
Vaan boeih hmuiah a hlah tih a vangnah loh diklai hmoi duela pawk.
4 After it a voice roareth: he thundereth with the voice of his excellency; and he will not restrain them when his voice is heard.
A hnukkah a kawk ol khaw a hoemdamnah ol neh hum tih a ol a yaak vaengah rhaek uelh sak boeh.
5 God thundereth marvellously with his voice; great things he doeth, which we cannot comprehend.
Pathen loh a ol neh khobaerhambae a saii khungdaeng tih hum dae m'ming uh moenih.
6 For he saith to the snow, Be thou on the earth; likewise to the small rain, and to the great rain of his strength.
Vuelsong neh khotlan khonal te, 'Diklai ah om saeh,’ a ti vaengah khotlan khonal khaw a sarhi tak.
7 He sealeth up the hand of every man; that all men may know his work.
Amah kutngo hlang boeih ming sak ham hlang boeih kah kut te rhodaek a soei pah.
8 Then the beasts go into dens, and remain in their places.
Te vaengah mulhing khaw a khui la kun tih a khuisaek ah kho a sak.
9 From the south cometh the whirlwind: and cold from the north.
Cangpalam te imkhui lamloh, khosik te tlangpuei lamloh ha thoeng.
10 By the breath of God frost is given: and the breadth of the waters is narrowed.
Pathen kah hiil lamloh rhaelnu khaw a khueh tih tui daang mangdaeng mangtok la om.
11 Also by watering he wearieth the thick cloud: he scattereth his bright cloud:
Khomai te cingtui loh a rhih sak tih cingmai loh amah kah vangnah te a taekyak.
12 And it is turned around by his counsels: that they may do whatever he commandeth them upon the face of the world on the earth.
Te khaw diklai kah lunglai hman ah a uen boeih te saii hamla a niing, a niing dongah kuluk la a hil.
13 He causeth it to come, whether for correction, or for his land, or for mercy.
Te te caitueng lam khaw, a khohmuen ham khaw, sitlohnah ham khaw a thoeng sak.
14 Hearken to this, O Job: stand still, and consider the wondrous works of God.
Job, he he hnakaeng lah. Pai lamtah Pathen kah khobaerhambae he yakming lah.
15 Dost thou know when God disposed them, and caused the light of his cloud to shine?
Te rhoek soah Pathen loh a khueh tih a cingmai kah vangnah a sae te na ming a?
16 Dost thou know the balancings of the clouds, the wondrous works of him who is perfect in knowledge?
Poeknah rhuemtuet, mangvawt khomai a haainah te na ming a?
17 How thy garments are warm, when he quieteth the earth by the south wind?
Tuithim loh khohmuen a mong sak vaengah na himbai te aka bae sak,
18 Hast thou with him spread out the sky, which is strong, and as a molten looking glass?
Hmaidan a hlawn bangla khomong a thah la amah taengah na nulh thai aya?
19 Teach us what we shall say to him; for we cannot order our speech by reason of darkness.
Amah taengah metla n'thui ham khaw kaimih tueng lah. Hmaisuep hmai ah n'tawn uh thai pawt oe.
20 Shall it be told him that I speak? if a man shall speak, surely he shall be swallowed up.
Hlang loh a dolh hamla thui cakhaw ka thui bangla amah taengah a tae pa aya?
21 And now men see not the bright light which is in the clouds: but the wind passeth, and cleanseth them.
Tahae ah khaw vangnah a hmuh uh moenih. A aa te khohli loh a yawn tih a caihcil hnukkah khomong dongah tueng.
22 Fair weather cometh from the north: with God is terrible majesty.
Tlangpuei lamkah sui te mueithennah rhih om Pathen taengla pawk.
23 As for the Almighty, we cannot find him out: he is excellent in power, and in judgment, and in abundance of justice: he will not afflict.
Tlungthang te thadueng a len dongah a tiktamnah m'hmuh lek moenih. Duengnah khaw a cungkuem dongah hlang a phaep moenih.
24 Men therefore fear him: he respecteth not any that are wise of heart.
Hlang rhoek loh amah te a rhih uh tangloeng dongah lungbuei aka cueih rhoek takuem khaw a sawt moenih,” a ti.
