Job 11
1 Then answered Zophar the Naamathite, and sayde,
Naamathi Zophar loh a doo tih,
2 Should not the multitude of wordes be answered? or should a great talker be iustified?
“Ol cungkuem te a doo moenih a? Hlang he a hmuilai ngawn tah tang dae ta.
3 Should men holde their peace at thy lyes? and when thou mockest others, shall none make thee ashamed?
Na olsai te hlang loh ngam vetih na tamdaeng vaengah a hmaithae mahpawt nim?
4 For thou hast sayde, My doctrine is pure, and I am cleane in thine eyes.
Te vaengah, “Ka rhingtuknah he cil tih na mikhmuh ah a caih la ka om,” na ti.
5 But, oh that God would speake and open his lippes against thee!
Nang taengah aka thui la Pathen loh unim dawk a paek tih a hmuilai ong koinih.
6 That he might shewe thee the secretes of wisedome, howe thou hast deserued double, according to right: know therefore that God hath forgotten thee for thine iniquitie.
Lungming cueihnah he rhaepnit a lo dongah cueihnah olhuep te nang taengah a thui pawn ko. Namah kathaesainah lamloh Pathen loh nang n'hnilh te ming.
7 Canst thou by searching finde out God? canst thou finde out ye Almighty to his perfection?
Pathen kah khenah na hmuh tih Tlungthang kah a khuetnah hil na hmuh a?
8 The heauens are hie, what canst thou doe? it is deeper then the hell, how canst thou know it? (Sheol h7585)
Vaan la a sang te metlam na saii eh? Saelkhui lakah a dung te metlam na ming eh? (Sheol h7585)
9 The measure thereof is longer then the earth, and it is broader then the sea.
A himbaidok loh diklai lakah a puet tih tuitunli lakah dangka ngai.
10 If hee cut off and shut vp, or gather together, who can turne him backe?
A hil tih a tlaeng tih a tingtun sak phoeiah tah ulong anih a mael sak.
11 For hee knoweth vaine men, and seeth iniquitie, and him that vnderstandeth nothing.
Amah loh a poeyoek hlang rhoek khaw a ming ngawn dae boethae a hmuh vaengah yakming pawh.
12 Yet vaine man would be wise, though man new borne is like a wilde asse colte.
Tedae tuihong hlang loh hloih koinih kohong marhang neh laak te hlang la a sak khaming.
13 If thou prepare thine heart, and stretch out thine hands toward him:
Na lungbuei na cikngae tih a taengla na kut na phuel koinih,
14 If iniquitie be in thine hand, put it farre away, and let no wickednesse dwell in thy Tabernacle.
Na kut dongkah boethae te na lakhla tak tih na dap ah dumlai na khueh pawt atah,
15 The truely shalt thou lift vp thy face without spot, and shalt be stable, and shalt not feare.
A lolhmaih kolla na maelhmai na ludoeng van bitni. Na om vaengah khaw tluektluek na long vetih na rhih om mahpawh.
16 But thou shalt forget thy miserie, and remember it as waters that are past.
Nang ham tah thakthaenah te na hnilh vetih tui aka long voelh bangla na poek bitni.
17 Thine age also shall appeare more cleare then the noone day: thou shalt shine and bee as the morning.
Na khosak khaw khothun lakah sae vetih, a hmuep khaw mincang bangla om ni.
18 And thou shalt bee bolde, because there is hope: and thou shalt digge pittes, and shalt lye downe safely.
Ngaiuepnah a om dongah na pangtung vetih ngaikhuek la na too phoeiah na yalh bitni.
19 For when thou takest thy rest, none shall make thee afraide: yea, many shall make sute vnto thee.
Na kol vaengah na lakueng neh na maelhmai muep thae voel mahpawh.
20 But the eyes of the wicked shall faile, and their refuge shall perish, and their hope shalbe sorow of minde.
Tedae halang kah mik tah kha vetih thuhaelnah khaw amih lamloh bing ni, a ngaiuepnah khaw hinglu polpainah la om ni,” a ti nah.
