Job 35
1 And Elihu went on to say:
Hichun Elihun aseijin:
2 “Do you think this is just? You say, ‘I am more righteous than God.’
Pathen masanga keima hi chonpha kahi tia sei ding hi dih nakisah ham?
3 For you ask, ‘What does it profit me, and what benefit do I gain apart from sin?’
Ijeh inem itile, chonphatna a hinkho aman hi ipi phatchomna kaneijem? Keija dinga phachom ipi um'em? tinjong nasei ji'e.
4 I will reply to you and to your friends as well.
Ken nadonbut ing ting chuleh naloi nagolho jousen jong na donbut uhen.
5 Look to the heavens and see; gaze at the clouds high above you.
Van thamjol khu ven lang, chule nachung langa meilhang ho khu ven.
6 If you sin, what do you accomplish against Him? If you multiply your transgressions, what do you do to Him?
Chonset bol ta le chun Pathen ichan geijin asuna dem? Avel vel in chonse ta le chun ama lungthim ichan gei asukha dem?
7 If you are righteous, what do you give Him, or what does He receive from your hand?
Chonphat bol hile chun ama a dinga thilpeh loupi khat ahidem? Ama chu ipi nape tadem?
8 Your wickedness affects only a man like yourself, and your righteousness only a son of man.
Ahipoi nang chonset chun nangma tobang mihem ho chun adoulel ahin, chule nathilpha bol jong chun mihem mama aphatchom pi sah ahi.
9 Men cry out under great oppression; they plead for relief from the arm of the mighty.
Mihem techu bol gentheija aum teng ule apeng jah jeng jiuvin, mithahat thaneina noija chun apeng peng jiuve.
10 But no one asks, ‘Where is God my Maker, who gives us songs in the night,
Jan laileh la a hin saji pa eisempau Pathen chun hoiya umham ti jeng jong nadong kha pouve.
11 who teaches us more than the beasts of the earth and makes us wiser than the birds of the air?’
Ganchate sanga hoijo a eisem pau leh chunga leng vachate sanga chingjo a eisem pau chu hoiya umham?
12 There they cry out, but He does not answer, because of the pride of evil men.
Chule mihemte chu akiletsah jeh uvin aka teng uleh Pathen in adonbut jipoi.
13 Surely God does not listen to empty pleas, and the Almighty does not take note of it.
Ahinlah Pathen in ajah peh pouvin hatchungnung pa chun ngaisah in aneipoi tia seiding chu dihlou ahi.
14 How much less, then, when you say that you do not see Him, that your case is before Him and you must wait for Him,
Nangin kamu theipoi tin naseije, ahinlah nanga hat le bou thudih chu hungdoh ding ahi.
15 and further, that in His anger He has not punished or taken much notice of folly!
Nangin michonse ho chu lunghang in alethuhpoi natin chule migiloute ngaisah in aneipoi tin naseije.
16 So Job opens his mouth in vain and multiplies words without knowledge.”
Ahinlah Job nangin thu homkeu jeng naseiyin, mingol khat bangin thu naseije.
