< Job 10 >

1 “My soul is weary of my life. I will give free course to my complaint. I will speak in the bitterness of my soul.
Kamae ka hringnae ka panuet. Ka phuenangnae ka pâpho ngala han. Ka hringnae a rek hoi lawk ka dei han.
2 I will tell God, ‘Do not condemn me. Show me why you contend with me.
Cathut koe yon na pen hanh, bangdawkmaw na taran, na hmawt sak haw, telah ka ti han.
3 Is it good to you that you should oppress, that you should despise the work of your hands, and smile on the counsel of the wicked?
Tami repcoungroe lahoi na kutsak tami hah dudam teh, tamikathoutnaw khokhang e hnâbokhaie heh, ahawi telah na pouk maw.
4 Do you have eyes of flesh? Or do you see as man sees?
Takthai e mit maw na tawn, tami ni a hmu e patetlah maw na hmu van maw.
5 Are your days as the days of mortals, or your years as man’s years,
Namae hninnaw hai tami e hnin patetlah maw ao. Namae kumnaw teh, tami e hnin patetlah maw ao.
6 that you inquire after my iniquity, and search after my sin?
tamikathout lah ka ohoehnae hah na panue eiteh, na kut dawk hoi ka rungngang thai e awm hoeh tie hah na panue nahlangva,
7 Although you know that I am not wicked, there is no one who can deliver out of your hand.
Ka payonpakai e naw hah na tawng teh, ka yonnae hah na pâphue.
8 “‘Your hands have framed me and fashioned me altogether, yet you destroy me.
Namae na kut hoi na sak teh, ka kuepcingcalah na pathoup. Hateiteh, namae kut ni bout na raphoe.
9 Remember, I beg you, that you have fashioned me as clay. Will you bring me into dust again?
Nama ni talai e na sak tie hah na pahnim hoeh nahan ka kâhei, vaiphu lah maw bout na coung sak han.
10 Have not you poured me out like milk, and curdled me like cheese?
Nama ni sanutui patetlah na rabawk teh, sanutui kamkak patetlah na pahlawm nahoehmaw.
11 You have clothed me with skin and flesh, and knit me together with bones and sinews.
Nama ni ka vuen hoi takthai na ramuk. Ka hru hoi ka tharui hoi na caksak nahoehmaw.
12 You have granted me life and loving kindness. Your visitation has preserved my spirit.
Nama ni ka hringnae hoi pahrennae na poe teh, na khetyawtnae ni ka muitha teh a lungmawng sak.
13 Yet you hid these things in your heart. I know that this is with you:
Hete hnonaw heh na lungthin thung vah na hro teh, namae thung vah ao tie hah ka panue.
14 if I sin, then you mark me. You will not acquit me from my iniquity.
Ka yon pawiteh nama ni na panue han. Ka payonpakai e dawk hoi na hlout sak hoeh.
15 If I am wicked, woe to me. If I am righteous, I still will not lift up my head, being filled with disgrace, and conscious of my affliction.
Tamikathout lah kaawm pawiteh, yawthoe lah ka o han, tamikalan lah ka o nakunghai, minhmai kahawi kahmawt thai mahoeh. Kayayeirai hoi runae hoi kakawi e la ka o.
16 If my head is held high, you hunt me like a lion. Again you show yourself powerful to me.
Ka kâoup pawiteh, ka matheng e Sendek patetlah, hmâ na ca sak. Kai taranlahoi takikathopounge bout na kamnue sak.
17 You renew your witnesses against me, and increase your indignation on me. Changes and warfare are with me.
Kai na ka taran hane ka panuekkhaie patuen patuen na tha teh, kai dawk na lungkuephoehnae na pung sak. Dumyennae hoi tarantuknae hah, kai koe pou ao.
18 “‘Why, then, have you brought me out of the womb? I wish I had given up the spirit, and no eye had seen me.
Bangdawkmaw camo im dawk hoi na tâcosak. Oe apinihai na hmawt laipalah kadout boi pawiteh;
19 I should have been as though I had not been. I should have been carried from the womb to the grave.
Kaawmhoehe patetlah ka o han ei, Camo im thung hoi phuen lah ceikhai lah ka o han ei.
20 Are not my days few? Stop! Leave me alone, that I may find a little comfort,
Ka hninnaw heh, ka younca e nahoehmaw. Ka cei vaiteh bout ka ban thai hoeh nahanlah, duenae tâhlip hoi hmonae ram dawk ka cei hoehnahlan vah.
21 before I go where I will not return from, to the land of darkness and of the shadow of death;
Lungmawngnae dawngdeng hai ka hmu nahanelah, ka kâhat pawiteh, ka mahmawk na awm sak awh.
22 the land dark as midnight, of the shadow of death, without any order, where the light is as midnight.’”
Ama lungpouk ka hmawt e, kingkahmawt e ram, duenae tâhlip patetlah, banghai ka awmhoeh e, angnae hai hmonae patetlah a onae hmuen koe, telah ati.
