Job 35
1 Moreover Elihu answered,
Hahoi Elihu ni a pathung e teh,
2 "Do you think this to be your right, or do you say, 'My righteousness is more than God's,'
Heteheh, a lan telah na pouk maw, Cathut lannae hlak ka lan telah na dei maw.
3 That you ask, 'What advantage will it be to you? What profit shall I have, more than if I had sinned?'
Bangkongtetpawiteh, ka yonnae hah pap boipawiteh, hot teh, nang hanelah bangmaw a hawinae, meknae hoe ka hmu telah na ti.
4 I will answer you, and your companions with you.
Nama koe kaawm e naw hoi na pathung han.
5 Look to the heavens, and see. See the skies, which are higher than you.
Kalvan lah moung nateh khenhaw! khenhaw! nang hlak hoe ka rasang e tâmainaw hah,
6 If you have sinned, what effect do you have against him? If your transgressions are multiplied, what do you do to him?
Yonnae na sak pawiteh, ama taranlahoi bangmaw hoe na kuepcing sak, nahoeh pawiteh kâtapoenae hah pap pawiteh, ama hanelah bangmaw na sak,
7 If you are righteous, what do you give him? Or what does he receive from your hand?
Tamikalan lah na awm pawiteh, ama hah bangmaw na poe, Nahoeh pawiteh, ama ni na kut dawk hoi bangmaw a hmu.
8 Your wickedness may hurt a man as you are, and your righteousness may profit a son of man.
Na hawihoehnae ni nang patetlah kaawm e tami hah a ratet, na lannae ni tami capa buet touh a ratet.
9 "By reason of the multitude of oppressions they cry out. They cry for help by reason of the arm of the mighty.
Hnephnap e a pap kecu dawkvah a hramki awh, athakaawme taminaw e rektapnae kecu dawkvah, kabawpnae a panki hoi a hram awh.
10 But none says, 'Where is God my Maker, who gives songs in the night,
Hateiteh, apinihai nâmaw kasakkung Cathut, karum lah la sak han ka poe e hah ao telah dei awh hoeh.
11 who teaches us more than the animals of the earth, and makes us wiser than the birds of the sky?'
Talai e sarang hlak hai apinimaw na cangkhai awh. Kalvan e tava hlak lung na ang sak awh.
12 There they cry, but none gives answer, because of the pride of evil men.
Tamikathoutnaw a kâoup kecu dawk, hawvah a hram awh ei, pathung awh hoeh.
13 Surely God will not hear an empty cry, neither will Shaddai regard it.
Banghai bang hoeh e lawk hah Cathut ni khoeroe thai mahoeh, Athakasaipounge, ni hai banglahai noutna mahoeh.
14 How much less when you say you do not see him. The cause is before him, and you wait for him.
Ama teh na hmawt hoeh telah na dei nakunghai, amae hmalah lannae ao teh, ama teh na ring raw na ring han.
15 But now, because he has not visited in his anger, neither does he greatly regard arrogance.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, atuvah a lungkhueknae dawk hoi na rek hoeh niteh, pathunae hnonaw pueng hah pâkuem hoeh.
16 Therefore Job opens his mouth with empty talk, and he multiplies words without knowledge."
Hatdawkvah, Job ni a khuekhaw awm laipalah, a pahni a ang teh, panuenae laipalah lawk a pap sak.
