Job 26
1 To naah Job mah,
And Job answereth and saith: —
2 kawbangmaw thacak ai kami to na bomh, bantha cak ai kami to na pahlong?
What — thou hast helped the powerless, Saved an arm not strong!
3 Kawbangmaw palungha ai kami khaeah lok na thuih pae? Kawbangmaw kahoih poekhaih to paroeai kaminawk khaeah nam tuengsak?
What — thou hast given counsel to the unwise, And wise plans in abundance made known.
4 Hae lok hae mi han ih maw na thuih? Nang khae hoi angzo muithla loe mi ih maw?
With whom hast thou declared words? And whose breath came forth from thee?
5 Tuinawk tlim ah kaom kadueh kaminawk, tui thungah kaom hmuennawk loe tasoeh takuenhaih hoiah oh o.
The Rephaim are formed, Beneath the waters, also their inhabitants.
Naked [is] Sheol over-against Him, And there is no covering to destruction. (Sheol h7585)
7 Anih mah aluek bang ih van to tidoeh kaom ai ahmuen nuiah payuengh moe, tidoeh kaom ai ahmuen nuiah long to a bangh.
Stretching out the north over desolation, Hanging the earth upon nothing,
8 Kathah tamai nuiah tuinawk to a suek; toe tui kazit mah tamai to tapoksak ai.
Binding up the waters in His thick clouds, And the cloud is not rent under them.
9 Anih mah angmah ih angraeng tangkhang to khuk moe, angmah ih tamai to a nuiah taboksak.
Taking hold of the face of the throne, Spreading over it His cloud.
10 Tui nuiah kawk parai ramri to a sak moe, aanghaih hoi vinghaih salakah a suek.
A limit He hath placed on the waters, Unto the boundary of light with darkness.
11 Anih mah thuitaek naah, van ih tungnawk to anghuenh moe, dawnraihaih hoiah oh o.
Pillars of the heavens do tremble, And they wonder because of His rebuke.
12 A thacakhaih hoiah tuipui to tapraek moe, palunghahaih hoiah amoekhaih to koihsak.
By His power He hath quieted the sea, And by His understanding smitten the proud.
13 Angmah ih Muithla hoiah van to krang kahoih ah pathoep moe, a ban hoiah kasae pahui to sak.
By His Spirit the heavens He beautified, Formed hath His hand the fleeing serpent.
14 Khenah, hae hmuennawk loe a sak ih hmuen aqai ah ni oh o vop; aicae mah anih ih lok zetta ni a thaih o vop; toe a thacakhaih khopazih tuen loe mi mah maw panoek thai tih?
Lo, these [are] the borders of His way, And how little a matter is heard of Him, And the thunder of His might Who doth understand?
