Job 19
1 Then Job answered and said,
Job ni a pathung teh,
2 How long will ye vex my soul, and break me in pieces with words?
Atueng nâsittouh maw ka hringnae he runae na poe awh teh, lawk hoi kai na raphoe awh han.
3 These ten times have ye reproached me: ye are not ashamed [that] ye make yourselves strange to me.
Vai hra totouh na pathoe awh e ka tak dawkvah na payon awh nakunghai na kayak awh hoeh.
4 And be it indeed [that] I have erred, mine error remaineth with myself.
Ka payon katang pawiteh, ka payonnae teh kai dawk pou ao han.
5 If indeed ye will magnify [yourselves] against me, and plead against me my reproach:
Kai na taranlahoi na kâoup awh teh, kai kayanae heh kai na tarannae lah na hno awh pawiteh,
6 Know now that God hath overthrown me, and hath compassed me with his net.
kai dawkvah Cathut a payon tie hoi, a tamlawk hoi na ramuk tie hah panuek awh.
7 Behold, I cry out of wrong, but I am not heard: I cry aloud, but [there is] no judgment.
Payonnae kong dawkvah ka hram pawiteh, na thai pouh mahoeh. Puenghoi ka hram nakunghai lannae hah awm hoeh.
8 He hath fenced up my way that I cannot pass, and he hath set darkness in my paths.
Ka tapuet thai hoeh nahanlah ama ni ka lamthung hah a pâbing. Ka lamthung dawk hmonae hah a ta.
9 He hath stripped me of my glory, and taken the crown [from] my head.
Ka bawilennae hah na rading pouh teh, ka lû dawk e bawilukhung hah na la pouh.
10 He hath destroyed me on every side, and I am gone: and mine hope hath he removed like a tree.
Avoivang hoi vekvek na phi te ka kahma toe. Ka ngaihawinae teh, thingkung patetlah na phawk pouh.
11 He hath also kindled his wrath against me, and he counteth me unto him as [one of] his enemies.
Kai na taranlahoi a lungkhueknae hah a kâan sak teh, a taran buet touh e patetlah na touksin.
12 His troops come together, and raise up their way against me, and encamp round about my tabernacle.
A ransahu hah a kamkhueng awh teh, kai na taran lahoi lamthung a rasoun awh, ka lukkareirim tengpam petkâkalup lah na ven awh.
13 He hath put my brethren far from me, and mine acquaintance are verily estranged from me.
Ka hmaunawnghanaw hah ahla nah koelah na puen pouh teh, ka panue e naw hah tamitavan lah koung ao awh.
14 My kinsfolk have failed, and my familiar friends have forgotten me.
Ka imthungnaw hai ka hmawt thai hoeh toe. Ka huikahawinaw ni koung na pahnim awh toe.
15 They that dwell in mine house, and my maids, count me for a stranger: I am an alien in their sight.
Ka im dawk kho kasaknaw, ka sannunaw ni imyin lah na pouk awh. Ahnimae mithmu vah imyin lah ka o.
16 I called my servant, and he gave [me] no answer; I intreated him with my mouth.
Ka sannaw hah ka kaw eiteh, na pato awh hoeh toe. Lawkkanem hoi pasawt a ngai toe.
17 My breath is strange to my wife, though I intreated for the children’s [sake] of mine own body.
Ka hringnae teh ka yu hanelah a hnueai e lah ao teh, rei ka tâcawt e hmaunawnghanaw hanelah ngai ka tho e la awm hoeh toe.
18 Yea, young children despised me; I arose, and they spake against me.
Camoca ni patenghai na dudam awh. Ka thaw navah kai taranlahoi lawk a dei awh.
19 All my inward friends abhorred me: and they whom I loved are turned against me.
Ka huiko kamyawng pueng ni na panuet awh. Ka lungpataw e naw ni hai kai tarankung lah koung ao awh.
20 My bone cleaveth to my skin and to my flesh, and I am escaped with the skin of my teeth.
Ka vuen hoi ka tak hai ka hru dawk rapkâbet. Kahâhli duengdoeh kaawm toe.
21 Have pity upon me, have pity upon me, O ye my friends; for the hand of God hath touched me.
Oe, nangmouh ka huinaw, na pahren awh haw, na pahren awh haw, bangkongtetpawiteh Cathut e kut hoi na hem e la ka o toe.
22 Why do ye persecute me as God, and are not satisfied with my flesh?
Bang kecu dawk maw Cathut na rektap e patetlah kai hah na rektap awh. Ka takthai dawk ka khangnae he na khout sak awh hoeh rah maw.
23 Oh that my words were now written! oh that they were printed in a book!
Oe, ka lawknaw he ca lah ka thun pawiteh, cauknaw dawk pakhum boipawiteh,
24 That they were graven with an iron pen and lead in the rock for ever!
thutnae sum hoi, talung dawk thut e a yungyoe hanelah awm pawiteh,
25 For I know [that] my redeemer liveth, and [that] he shall stand at the latter [day] upon the earth:
kai na karatangkung teh a hring tie hah ka panue. A hnuktengpoung nah talai van bout a kangdue han.
26 And [though] after my skin [worms] destroy this [body], yet in my flesh shall I see God:
Ka vuen heh raphoe hnukkhu hoi, ka takthai hoi Cathut hah ka hmu han tie hah ka panue.
27 Whom I shall see for myself, and mine eyes shall behold, and not another; [though] my reins be consumed within me.
Kai kama roeroe ni ka hmu vaiteh, ayâ alouk ni a hmu dueng laipalah, kai ni kamae mit hoi roeroe ka hmu han. Banghloimaw ka thung e ka lungthin ni a rabui.
28 But ye should say, Why persecute we him, seeing the root of the matter is found in me?
Hno coungnae a kung teh, kai dawkvah hmu awh eiteh, bangtelamaw, ahni teh rektap han, na tet awh boipawiteh,
29 Be ye afraid of the sword: for wrath [bringeth] the punishments of the sword, that ye may know [there is] a judgment.
Namamouh ni tahloi teh taket awh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, lungkhueknae ni tahloi hoi reknae hah tâco sak. Lawkcengnae ao tie hah panuethai nahan telah ati.
