Job 26

1 Then answered Job, and said,

Job loh a doo tih,

2 What assistance hast thou given to the powerless? [how] hast thou helped the arm without strength?

“Metlam thadueng mueh te na bom tih sarhi aka tak mueh bantha te na khang?

3 How hast thou counselled the unwise? and what sound wisdom hast thou made known so plentifully?

Metlam lae cueihnah aka tal te na uen tih a cungkuem ah lungming cueihnah na ming sak.

4 To whom hast thou told words? and whose spirit came from thee?

U taengah nim ol na thui tih nang lamloh u kah hiil nim aka thoeng?

5 The departed are called into being beneath the waters, and their inhabitants.

Sairhai tah tui hmui ah kilkul uh tih kho a sak.

6 Naked is the nether world before him, and there is no covering for the place of corruption. (Sheol h7585)

A taengah saelkhui khaw pumtling om tih Abaddon khaw himbai om pawh. (Sheol h7585)

7 He stretched out the north over empty space; he suspended the earth on nothing;

Tlangpuei ah hinghong la a yaal tih bang aka om pawt soah khaw diklai a dingkoei sak.

8 He bound up the waters in his clouds; and the cloud bursteth not under their weight;

A khomai khuiah tui a cun tih cingmai te a hmui ah a ueth pawh.

9 He closed up the surface of his throne, spreading over it his cloud;

A cingmai te a soah a yaal tih ngolkhoel hmai a dah.

10 A fixed limit he compassed off over the face of the waters, for the division of the light and darkness.

Vangnah neh a hmuep laklo kah a khuetnah hamla tui hman ah a rhi a rhuen pah.

11 The pillars of heaven tremble greatly, and are astounded at his rebuke.

Vaan kah tung khaw hlinghloek uh tih a tluungnah dongah a ngaihmang uh.

12 By his power he split in pieces the sea, and by his understanding he crushed [its] pride:

A thadueng loh tuipuei te a phih tih a lungcuei neh Rahab a phop.

13 By his breath the heavens [acquired] beauty; his hand hath created the flying serpent.

A mueihla loh vaan kah khocil a thoeng sak tih a kut loh yingyet rhul khaw a toeh.

14 Lo, these are ends of his ways; for how slight a whisper is heard [by us] of him! but the thunder of his mighty deeds who can understand?

He tah a longpuei dongkah longpuei hmoi ni he. A thayung thamal kah khohum khuiah amah kah ol duem te metlam n'yaak? A thayung thamal te u long a yakming pai eh?” a ti.
