Job 7
1 Mihem jouse hinkho hi hahsatna toh kidel jing hilou ham? Ihinkho uhi kitha lah khut tobang hilou ham?
Is there not a warfare to man on earth? And as the days of an hireling his days?
2 Liim ngaicha aum natong mi tobang ahin, soh atohna man ngah tobang ahi.
As a servant desireth the shadow, And as a hireling expecteth his wage,
3 Keima jong lha phabep sunga chu phatchomna bei natoh eikipen ahi, lunggel gentheina dimset in jankho sot noijah genthei kathoh e.
So I have been caused to inherit months of vanity, And nights of misery they numbered to me.
4 Jalkhun chungah kalumin, itih tah le jingkah ahitadem tin kagel jin, ahinlah jan in eisu chol in khovah kahsen kaki pehle le jin ahi.
If I lay down then I said, 'When do I rise!' And evening hath been measured, And I have been full of tossings till dawn.
5 Kati chungla than leh akhih in atom dimin ka vun jong apohkeh gamin anai along longe.
Clothed hath been my flesh [with] worms, And a clod of dust, My skin hath been shrivelled and is loathsome,
6 Ka nikho ho jong pon khong ho patphei kilham sangin ging jon, kinepna beijin akichai ji'e.
My days swifter than a weaving machine, And they are consumed without hope.
7 O Pathen, kahin kho hi hai khat bep bou ahi ti nei geldoh peh in, chule keiman kipana hi kanei kit lou hel ding ahi.
Remember Thou that my life [is] a breath, Mine eye turneth not back to see good.
8 Nangin tua hi neimu ahin, ahinlah nei musot pon nate, nangin neiven natin ahinlah keima ana chemang tange.
The eye of my beholder beholdeth me not. Thine eyes [are] upon me — and I am not.
Consumed hath been a cloud, and it goeth, So he who is going down to Sheol cometh not up. (Sheol h7585)
10 Amaho chu ainuva patna tonsotna mukit tah lou dinga chemang ahitauve.
He turneth not again to his house, Nor doth his place discern him again.
11 Keima thusei louvin kaum theipoi, kalung genthei naho kasei doh a ka lhagao genthei jeh a kiphin ding kahi.
Also I — I withhold not my mouth — I speak in the distress of my spirit, I talk in the bitterness of my soul.
12 Keima hi twikhanglen'a kichat chat um ganhing len ahilouleh gullui kahia nahonbit nanoija chu neikoi jeng ding ham?
A sea -[monster] am I, or a dragon, That thou settest over me a guard?
13 Keima kalupna in eilhamon intin, chule ka imut teng kanat genthei na ho olsah tante tin kagelle.
When I said, 'My bed doth comfort me,' He taketh away in my talking my couch.
14 Ahinlah nangin mangse neimatsah jin, chule gaothil mu in nei kichat sah ji'e.
And thou hast affrighted me with dreams, And from visions thou terrifiest me,
15 Hitia genthei thoh sang hin, eikimeh lih jeng hen lang thileng pha kasa joi.
And my soul chooseth strangling, Death rather than my bones.
16 Kahinkho kadei mon hitia hin hin ding hi kadei tapoi, O nikho lhomcha kanei sung hin kachangin nei dalha jengin.
I have wasted away — not to the age do I live. Cease from me, for my days [are] vanity.
17 Mihem hohi ipi hiuva, nangin hibanga hi na khohsah a chule nagel jing jeng ham?
What [is] man that Thou dost magnify him? And that Thou settest unto him Thy heart?
18 Ajeh chu nangin jingkah seh le nakhol chil soh in, chule phat jousen na patep jinge.
And inspectest him in the mornings, In the evenings dost try him?
19 Kachil valna ding phatsung beh a ipi dinga nei dalhah lou ham?
How long dost Thou not look from me? Thou dost not desist till I swallow my spittle.
20 Chonset kanei ahilehnang chunga ipi kabol khah ham? O mihem te vejing pa, keihi nanga dinga pohgih kahija, natup penna neisem ham?
I have sinned, what do I to Thee, O watcher of man? Why hast Thou set me for a mark to Thee, And I am for a burden to myself — and what?
21 Kachonsetna hi ngaidam jengin lang chule kathemmona ho nei lahmang peh tan, ajeh chu leivui lah a kijam a thivah ding kahitan, nangin hin ven natin chemang tange.
Thou dost not take away my transgression, And cause to pass away mine iniquity, Because now, for dust I lie down: And Thou hast sought me — and I am not!
