< Job 2 >

1 Again it fell upon a day, that the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan came also among them to present himself before the LORD.
Cathut e capanaw BAWIPA e hmalah a tâconae hnin bout a pha toteh, Setan hai BAWIPA e hmalah kamnue van hanlah ahnimouh koe a tho van.
2 And the LORD said unto Satan: 'From whence comest thou?' And Satan answered the LORD, and said: 'From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it.'
BAWIPA ni Setan teh nâ lahoi maw na tho atipouh. Setan ni BAWIPA a pathungnae teh, talai van ka kâhei teh, ka kumluennae koehoi, atipouh.
3 And the LORD said unto Satan: 'Hast thou considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a whole-hearted and an upright man, one that feareth God, and shunneth evil? and he still holdeth fast his integrity, although thou didst move Me against him, to destroy him without cause.'
BAWIPA ni Setan koevah, ka san Job heh na pouk boimaw. Ahni patetlae toun han kaawm hoeh e, tamikalan, Cathut ka taket e hoi, kahawihoehe lamthung ka roun e, apihai awm hoeh. Bang hoeh e dawk na ka raphoe nakunghai ama min la doeh poe awm ti atipouh.
4 And Satan answered the LORD, and said: 'Skin for skin, yea, all that a man hath will he give for his life.
Setan ni BAWIPA hah a pathung teh, vuen hanlah vuen lah doeh ao, tami ni a tawnta e pueng hah a hring nahanelah a kâpasoung yawkaw han.
5 But put forth Thy hand now, and touch his bone and his flesh, surely he will blaspheme Thee to Thy face.'
Hateiteh, atu na kut pho nateh, a hru hoi atak tek pouh haw, na hmaitung vah na pahnawt han doeh atipouh.
6 And the LORD said unto Satan: 'Behold, he is in thy hand; only spare his life.'
BAWIPA ni Setan koe, khenhaw! ahni teh na kut dawk ao. Hateiteh a hringnae hah pâhlung atipouh.
7 So Satan went forth from the presence of the LORD, and smote Job with sore boils from the sole of his foot even unto his crown.
Setan teh BAWIPA e hmaitung hoi a tâco teh, Job hah a khok koehoi a lû totouh, ka patawpoung e moihna hoi a kawi sak.
8 And he took him a potsherd to scrape himself therewith; and he sat among the ashes.
A kâkoe nahanelah Job ni ampaikei hah a la teh hraba dawk a tahung.
9 Then said his wife unto him: 'Dost thou still hold fast thine integrity? blaspheme God, and die.'
A yu ni, na lannae hah pou na kuet han rah maw. Na Cathut hah thoebo nateh, dout lawih atipouh.
10 But he said unto her: 'Thou speakest as one of the impious women speaketh. What? shall we receive good at the hand of God, and shall we not receive evil?' For all this did not Job sin with his lips.
Hateiteh ahni ni napui koe, ka pathu e napui ni lawk a dei e patetlah na dei. Bangtelamaw Cathut koehoi hawinae ka hmu katang teh, thoenae hai hmawt mahoeh maw, telah atipouh. Hete hno pueng dawk Job ni apâhni dawk hoi yonnae dei hoeh.
11 Now when Job's three friends heard of all this evil that was come upon him, they came every one from his own place, Eliphaz the Temanite, and Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite; and they made an appointment together to come to bemoan him and to comfort him.
Job e a hui kathum touh ni, het patet e hawihoehnae ni a pha sin e a thai awh torei teh, amamouh aonae koehoi lengkaleng a tho awh. Teman tami Eliphaz Shuhi tami Bildad hoi, Naamath tami Zophar, bangkongtetpawiteh, ahni lungpahawi hane, lungmawng sak hanelah a kamkhueng awh teh a kâpan awh.
12 And when they lifted up their eyes afar off, and knew him not, they lifted up their voice, and wept; and they rent every one his mantle, and threw dust upon their heads toward heaven.
Ahnimouh ni ahlanae koehoi Job hah a khet awh navah, nout thai awh hoeh. Kacaipounglah a ka awh teh, khohnanaw hah vekvek a ravei awh teh, a lûnaw dawk vaiphu a kâphuen awh.
13 So they sat down with him upon the ground seven days and seven nights, and none spoke a word unto him; for they saw that his grief was very great.
Hottelah hnin sari touh hoi rum sari touh thung talai dawk a tahungkhai awh teh, apinihai ahni koe lawk kam touh hai dei awh hoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, a lungmathoe poung tie hah a panue awh.
