< Joba 26 >

1 Job loh a doo tih,
And Job answered and said,
2 “Metlam thadueng mueh te na bom tih sarhi aka tak mueh bantha te na khang?
How hast thou helped the powerless; how saved the arm that is without strength!
3 Metlam lae cueihnah aka tal te na uen tih a cungkuem ah lungming cueihnah na ming sak.
How hast thou counselled him that hath no wisdom, and abundantly declared the thing as it is!
4 U taengah nim ol na thui tih nang lamloh u kah hiil nim aka thoeng?
For whom hast thou uttered words? and whose spirit came from thee?
5 Sairhai tah tui hmui ah kilkul uh tih kho a sak.
The shades tremble beneath the waters and the inhabitants thereof;
6 A taengah saelkhui khaw pumtling om tih Abaddon khaw himbai om pawh. (Sheol h7585)
Sheol is naked before him, and destruction hath no covering. (Sheol h7585)
7 Tlangpuei ah hinghong la a yaal tih bang aka om pawt soah khaw diklai a dingkoei sak.
He stretcheth out the north over empty space, he hangeth the earth upon nothing;
8 A khomai khuiah tui a cun tih cingmai te a hmui ah a ueth pawh.
He bindeth up the waters in his thick clouds, and the cloud is not rent under them.
9 A cingmai te a soah a yaal tih ngolkhoel hmai a dah.
He covereth the face of his throne, he spreadeth his cloud upon it.
10 Vangnah neh a hmuep laklo kah a khuetnah hamla tui hman ah a rhi a rhuen pah.
He hath traced a fixed circle over the waters, unto the confines of light and darkness.
11 Vaan kah tung khaw hlinghloek uh tih a tluungnah dongah a ngaihmang uh.
The pillars of the heavens tremble and are astonished at his rebuke.
12 A thadueng loh tuipuei te a phih tih a lungcuei neh Rahab a phop.
He stirreth up the sea by his power, and by his understanding he smiteth through Rahab.
13 A mueihla loh vaan kah khocil a thoeng sak tih a kut loh yingyet rhul khaw a toeh.
By his Spirit the heavens are adorned; his hand hath formed the fleeing serpent.
14 He tah a longpuei dongkah longpuei hmoi ni he. A thayung thamal kah khohum khuiah amah kah ol duem te metlam n'yaak? A thayung thamal te u long a yakming pai eh?” a ti.
Lo, these are the borders of his ways; but what a whisper of a word do we hear of him! And the thunder of his power, who can understand?
