< Joba 26 >

1 Job loh a doo tih,
Then Job answered, and said:
2 “Metlam thadueng mueh te na bom tih sarhi aka tak mueh bantha te na khang?
Whose helper art thou? is it of him that is weak? and dost thou hold up the arm of him that has no strength?
3 Metlam lae cueihnah aka tal te na uen tih a cungkuem ah lungming cueihnah na ming sak.
To whom hast thou given counsel? perhaps to him that hath no wisdom, and thou hast shewn thy very great prudence.
4 U taengah nim ol na thui tih nang lamloh u kah hiil nim aka thoeng?
Whom hast thou desired to teach? was it not him that made life?
5 Sairhai tah tui hmui ah kilkul uh tih kho a sak.
Behold the giants groan under the waters, and they that dwell with them.
6 A taengah saelkhui khaw pumtling om tih Abaddon khaw himbai om pawh. (Sheol h7585)
Hell is naked before him, and there is no covering for destruction. (Sheol h7585)
7 Tlangpuei ah hinghong la a yaal tih bang aka om pawt soah khaw diklai a dingkoei sak.
He stretched out the north over the empty space, and 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 clouds, so that they break not out and fall down together.
9 A cingmai te a soah a yaal tih ngolkhoel hmai a dah.
He withholdeth the face of his throne, and spreadeth his cloud over it.
10 Vangnah neh a hmuep laklo kah a khuetnah hamla tui hman ah a rhi a rhuen pah.
He hath set bounds about the waters, till light and darkness come to an end.
11 Vaan kah tung khaw hlinghloek uh tih a tluungnah dongah a ngaihmang uh.
The pillars of heaven tremble, and dread at his beck.
12 A thadueng loh tuipuei te a phih tih a lungcuei neh Rahab a phop.
By his power the seas are suddenly gathered together, and his wisdom has struck the proud one.
13 A mueihla loh vaan kah khocil a thoeng sak tih a kut loh yingyet rhul khaw a toeh.
His spirit hath adorned the heavens, and his obstetric hand brought forth the winding 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 things are said in part of his ways: and seeing we have heard scarce a little drop of his word, who shall be able to behold the thunder of his greatness?
