< Job 2 >

1 And on a day the children of God came and stood before the Lord, and Satan came also among them, and stoode before the Lord.
A tue a pha vaengah Pathen ca rhoek loh cet uh BOEIPA taengah pai uh. Te vaengah Satan khaw BOEIPA taengah pai hamla amih lakli ah cet.
2 Then the Lord sayde vnto Satan, Whence commest thou? And Satan answered the Lord, and sayd, From compassing the earth to and from, and from walking in it.
BOEIPA loh Satan te, “Me lamkah lae na pawk he,” a ti nah. Te vaengah Satan loh BOEIPA te a doo tih, “Diklai ah ka van thikthuek tih a khuiah aka pongpa lamloh,” a ti nah.
3 And the Lord sayd vnto Satan, Hast thou not considered my seruant Iob, how none is like him in the earth? an vpright and iust man, one that feareth God, and escheweth euill? for yet he continueth in his vprightnesse, although thou mouedst me against him, to destroy him without cause.
Te dongah BOEIPA loh Satan te, “Ka sal Job ke na lungbuei ah na khueh a? Anih bangla a cuemthuek neh aka thuem, Pathen aka rhih tih boethae lamloh aka nong hlang he diklai ah om pawh. Anih tah a muelhtuetnah dongah cak pueng. Lunglilungla la anih dolh ham ni amah taengah kai nan vueh,” a ti nah.
4 And Satan answered the Lord, and sayde, Skin for skin, and all that euer a man hath, will he giue for his life.
Satan loh BOEIPA te a doo tih, “A vin ham a vin coeng tih a hinglu ham te hlang taengla boeih a paek ni.
5 But stretch now out thine hand, and touch his bones and his flesh, to see if he will not blaspheme thee to thy face.
Tedae na kut hlah laeh lamtah a rhuh neh a saa te ben lah saeh, na mikhmuh ah nang te n'uem rhet mahpawh,” a ti nah.
6 Then the Lord said vnto Satan, Lo, he is in thine hand, but saue his life.
Te dongah BOEIPA loh Satan te, “Anih te namah kut ah om dae a hinglu te tah ngaithuen,” a ti nah.
7 So Satan departed from the presence of the Lord, and smote Iob with sore boyles, from the sole of his foote vnto his crowne.
Te dongah Satan te BOEIPA mikhmuh lamloh khoe uh tih Job te buhlut thae neh a kho khopha lamloh a luki duela a ngawn.
8 And he tooke a potsharde to scrape him, and he sate downe among the ashes.
Te te khoeih hamla amah loh paikaek a loh tih hmaiphu khui ah ngol.
9 Then said his wife vnto him, Doest thou continue yet in thine vprightnes? Blaspheme God, and dye.
Te vaengah anih te a yuu loh, “Nang loh na muelhtuetnah te na pom bal pueng, Pathen te uem lamtah duek pahoi,” a ti nah.
10 But he said vnto her, Thou speakest like a foolish woman: what? shall we receiue good at the hande of God, and not receiue euill? In all this did not Iob sinne with his lippes.
Tedae amah te na ang cal la na cal. Pathen taeng lamloh hnothen n'doe tih yoethae he n'doe mahpawt nim?” a ti nah. Te boeih khuiah pataeng Job he a hmuilai nen khaw a tholh moenih.
11 Nowe when Iobs three friends heard of all this euill that was come vpon him, they came euery one from his owne place, to wit, Eliphaz the Temanite, and Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite: for they were agreed together to come to lament with him, and to comfort him.
Anih soah yoethae cungkuem a pai he Job kah a hui pathum loh a yaak. Te vaengah Temani Eliphaz, Shuhi Bildad, Naamathi Zophar te amah hmuen lamloh rhip cet uh tih Job suem ham neh hloep ham aka cet la tun hum uh.
12 So when they lift vp their eyes a farre off, they knewe him not: therefore they lift vp their voyces and wept, and euery one of them rent his garment, and sprinkled dust vpon their heads toward the heauen.
A hla lamloh a mik te a huel uh vaengah amah te hmat uh pawh. Te dongah a ol a huel uh tih rhap uh. A hnikul te rhip a phen uh tih laipi te a lu soah vaan la a haeh uh.
13 So they sate by him vpon the ground seuen dayes, and seuen nights, and none spake a worde vnto him: for they sawe, that the griefe was very great.
Anih te diklai dongah khothaih hnin rhih neh khoyin hnin rhih a ngol puei uh. Thakkhoeihnah loh mat a tluek te a hmuh dongah a taengah ol cal uh pawh.
