< Job 2 >

1 Nikhat van thutanna in na miho chu acham tah uvin Pakai masangah ahung kilah kit uvin, hiche a chun hehhatpa Satan chu amaho lah a ahung pange.
Again there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before Jehovah; and Satan came also among them to present himself before Jehovah.
2 “Hoiya konna hung nahim?” tin Pakaiyin Satan adonge. Satan in Pakai chu adonbut in, “Keiman leiset kaga khollen; thilsoh jouse kaga velhan ahi” ati.
And Jehovah said to Satan, Whence comest thou? And Satan answered Jehovah, and said, From wandering over the earth, and walking up and down in it.
3 Hichun Pakaiyin Satan adongin, “Kasohpa Job khu namu tah em? Amahi leiset chunga dinga miphapen ahin, nolnabei, milung thengsel ahi, Pathen agingin thilse jouse a konna kikangse jing mi ahi, ajeh beija nangin amakhu chonset sah teidinga nagot vang'in tunjong lungtheng sellin aum jinge,” ati.
Then said Jehovah to Satan, Hast thou observed my servant Job, that there is none like him upon the earth, an upright and good man, fearing God and departing from evil? And still he holdeth fast his integrity, although thou didst excite me against him to destroy him without a cause.
4 Satan in Pakai adonbut in “Vun dinga vun ahi, mihem khat in ahinkho ahuhdohna dinga anei agou jouse apeh doh teiding ahi.
And Satan answered Jehovah, and said, Skin for skin, yea, all that a man hath will he give for his life.
5 Ahin, nakhut lhangin lang adamtheina khu lahmang peh le chun namaichang laitaha nagaosap tei ding ahi!” ati.
But put forth now thy hand, and touch his bone and his flesh, and to thy face will he renounce thee.
6 “Aphai, amapa chunga hin nalungdei tah boltan; ahin ahinkho vang khen peh in,” tin Pakaiyin Satan aseipeh e.
And Jehovah said to Satan, Behold, he is in thy hand; but spare his life.
7 Hijeh chun Satan chun Pakai angsung adalhan, chule Job chu nat hoisetah uilut alujanga kipat akengto geijin a onglai beihellin aphah sahtai.
Then Satan went forth from the presence of Jehovah, and smote Job with sore boils from the sole of his foot to his crown.
8 Job in atahsa vun chu bel hallin akhot in vut bollah a atouve.
And he took a potsherd to scrape himself withal, and sat down among the ashes.
9 “Tuchan geija lungtheng sella naum jing nahlai ding ham? Pathen chu gaosap in lang thijengin,” tin ajinun Job jah a chun aseije.
Then said his wife to him, Dost thou still retain thine integrity? Renounce God, and die.
10 Ahinlah Job in adonbut in, “Nangin numei ngol khat thusei bangin naseije, Pathen khutna konna chu einin thil pha jeng jeng ikisanna chule thilse kisan louva ium ding ham?” ati. Thilsoh hijat chunga jong hin Job in thilse aseipoi.
But he said to her, Thou talkest like one of the foolish women. What! shall we receive good at the hand of God, and shall we not receive evil? In all this, Job sinned not with his lips.
11 Job agolte thum hon lungset umtah anat thohgim thu ajahdoh phat uvin ama ama in cheh a konin alhamon dingle alhembi dingin thakhat'in ahung kikhom uve. Amin hou chu Teman mi Eliphaz, Shuh mi Bildad chule Naamath mi Zophar ahiuve.
Now three friends of Job heard of all this evil that had come upon him, and came each one from his home; Eliphaz the Temanite, and Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite; for they had agreed to come to mourn with him, and to comfort him.
12 Amahon galla konna Job ahinmu u chun alim amel jong ahethei tapouve. Alung gentheihu nau vetsahna in akap loi loi jengun, aluchung uva huilah a chun leivui atheuvin ahi.
And they lifted up their eyes at a distance, and knew him not; then they raised their voices and wept, and rent each one his mantle, and sprinkled dust upon their heads toward heaven.
13 Chuti chun nisagi leh jan sagi tolla atou piuvin, anat genthei hoiset behseh amujeh u chun khatna khatcha jong Job koma thu chengkhat jeng cha seija jong aumpouve; ijeh inem itile anat chu hoise asah behseh jengu ahi.
And they sat down with him upon the ground seven days and seven nights, and none spake a word to him; for they saw that his grief was very great.
