< Job 15 >

1 Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered,
Hichun Teman mipa Eliphaz in adonbut in;
2 "Should a wise man answer with vain knowledge, and fill himself with the east wind?
Michingin hitobang thu hom keu chu donbut ponte. Nang hi imacha hilou nahin chule khohui hungnung bep nahi.
3 Should he reason with unprofitable talk, or with speeches with which he can do no good?
Michingin tang louva thu homkeu sei din akigo jipon, hitobang thu a chu ipi phatchomna um'em?
4 Yes, you do away with fear, and hinder devotion before God.
Pathen ginna neilou nahim, ama dinga jana neilou nahi.
5 For your iniquity teaches your mouth, and you choose the language of the crafty.
Nachonsetna ho chun nakama ipi seiding ham ti naseipeh untin, nathucheng hohi joulhep themtah chunga kingam ahi.
6 Your own mouth condemns you, and not I. Yes, your own lips testify against you.
Nangma kam tah chun themmo nachan sah ahin, kei kahipoi; namuh mama chun nang douna a thu asei ahi.
7 "Are you the first man who was born? Or were you brought forth before the hills?
Nanghi apeng masapen nahim? Molle lhang ho kisem masanga peng nahim?
8 Have you heard the secret counsel of God? Do you limit wisdom to yourself?
Pathen in guhthima nahilna ho nangai hinam? Chihna chu nangma tum dinga nanei hinam?
9 What do you know, that we do not know? What do you understand, which is not in us?
Keihon kahet louvu ipi nahetna, keihon kahet khen theilouvu nangin nahet khen thei um'em?
10 With us are both the gray-headed and the very aged men, much elder than your father.
Keiho langa hin upa tah tah samkangsa apangun amaho chu napa sanga hatah a tahjo ahiuve.
11 Are the consolations of God too small for you, even the word that is gentle toward you?
Pathen in nalhamon chu nang dinga neo behseh a ham? Nemma athusei chu lhing joulou ham?
12 Why does your heart carry you away? Why do your eyes flash,
Naki gellhah na chu ipin nalah mang peh ham? Na khomu theina chu ipin alhahsam sah ham?
13 That you turn your spirit against God, and let such words go out of your mouth?
Hiti chun Pathen dounan nakihei mangin, chule hitobang thuphalou hi naseije.
14 What is man, that he should be clean? What is he who is born of a woman, that he should be righteous?
Thithei khat tou chu theng theijem? Numeija pengdoh mihem chu adih a umthei ding ham?
15 Look, he puts no trust in his holy ones. Yes, the heavens are not clean in his sight;
Ven Pathen in vantil ho jeng jong atahsan joupoi, ama mitmu in vanho jeng jong athengsel poi.
16 how much less one who is abominable and corrupt, a man who drinks iniquity like water.
Chonsetna dimho leh lheplhahna dimho leh gitlouna a dangchah ho chu ichan geijin thenna alhasam tadem?
17 "I will show you, listen to me; that which I have seen I will declare:
Kathusei nangai dingle keiman navet sah inge, ken katahsa tah a kahet ho a kon in nadonbut inge.
18 (Which wise men have told by their fathers, and have not hidden it;
Apa teuva konna hiche thu mama hi ajah uva, michingho hetsah dungjuija hiche hi kisudet ahi.
19 to whom alone the land was given, and no stranger passed among them):
Gamdang miho hunglhun masang sot laipeh a chu koiham khat hitobang ho a konna gamkhat ana kipe ahi.
20 the wicked man writhes in pain all his days, even the number of years that are laid up for the oppressor.
Migiloupa chu ahinkho lhum keijin nat gim genthei thoh in akipeh peh in lungsetna neilou ho dingin hahsat gentheina kum jat tamtah kikhol ahi.
21 A sound of terrors is in his ears. In prosperity the destroyer shall come on him.
Ama banga kichat tijatna O aging jingin chule nikho phaho jeng jong misumang hon ahin delkhum dio kichatnan aneiye.
22 He doesn't believe that he shall return out of darkness. He is waited for by the sword.
Muthim lah a chedoh ding amahon angapcha pouve, kichatna jeh a amahon tol atha dingu ahi.
23 He wanders abroad for bread, saying, 'Where is it?' He knows that the day of darkness is ready at his hand.
Gamtinah avahle leuvin changlhah hoiya kakimu ding ham tin aseijuve. Amahon amanthah nadiu nikho anaije ti aheuve.
24 Distress and anguish make him afraid. They prevail against him, as a king ready to the battle.
Muthim nikhon amaho chu akichatsah uvin, galkon dinga kigong lengpa bangin lung gentheina leh lung natna dimset in ahing uve.
25 Because he has stretched out his hand against God, and behaves himself proudly against Shaddai;
Hatchungnung pa asuhboh uva Pathen akhut u athin khum jeh u chun,
26 he runs at him with a stiff neck, with the thick shields of his bucklers;
Alummu hattah chu akichoijun amadou nan isah loutah in anokhum jiuve.
27 because he has covered his face with his fatness, and gathered fat on his thighs.
Migiloute chu athaovun chule sumle paijin akhangtou cheh cheh un akongu jong athaovin apom doh sah uve.
28 He has lived in desolate cities, in houses which no one inhabited, which were ready to become heaps.
Ahinlah akhopi hou hi kisumang thah ding ahin, amaho chu dalhahsa ingemma hung chenguva; sotlhuh ding sa a um cheh ahiuve.
29 He shall not be rich, neither shall his substance continue, neither shall their possessions be extended on the earth.
Ahaosat nau jong sot tapontin, anei agou hou sot ponte; anei agouho jong kolmong geijin hung kikho khong soh taponte.
30 He shall not depart out of darkness. The flame shall dry up his branches. By the breath of God's mouth shall he go away.
Muthim lah a konin jamdoh thei pouvin tin, ajih hung dondoh ho jong nisan halgop intin chule Pathen hu haikhum chun amaho asuhmang ding ahi.
31 Let him not trust in emptiness, deceiving himself; for emptiness shall be his reward.
Haosatna homkeu tahsanna chun amaho leh amaho kilhem lha sot tapou vintin, amaho dinga akipaman u chu ahomsa hiding ahi.
32 It shall be accomplished before his time. His branch shall not be green.
Ahinkhou hoilai tah le thingbah kilhamlha bangin kisat lhauvin tin abah hou jong avellin hung engdoh kit tapou vinte.
33 He shall shake off his unripe grape as the vine, and shall cast off his flower as the olive tree.
Amaho chu lengpi phung aga matah a kilou lha bangle Olive thingphung aga kisem masanga apah pullha bang diu ahi.
34 For the company of the godless shall be barren, and fire shall consume the tents of bribery.
Ijeh inem itile Pathen neiloute chu ahomkeu ahiuvin, nehguh chahguh a haosa ho in chu kavam ding ahi.
35 They conceive mischief, and bring forth iniquity. Their heart prepares deceit."
Amahon boina naovop bangin avop un chule gitlouna ahing doh jiuve. Anaobu houvin joule nal asodoh uve.
