< Job 35 >

1 Moreover Elihu answered,
Hichun Elihun aseijin:
2 "Do you think this to be your right, or do you say, 'My righteousness is more than God's,'
Pathen masanga keima hi chonpha kahi tia sei ding hi dih nakisah ham?
3 That you ask, 'What advantage will it be to you? What profit shall I have, more than if I had sinned?'
Ijeh inem itile, chonphatna a hinkho aman hi ipi phatchomna kaneijem? Keija dinga phachom ipi um'em? tinjong nasei ji'e.
4 I will answer you, and your companions with you.
Ken nadonbut ing ting chuleh naloi nagolho jousen jong na donbut uhen.
5 Look to the heavens, and see. See the skies, which are higher than you.
Van thamjol khu ven lang, chule nachung langa meilhang ho khu ven.
6 If you have sinned, what effect do you have against him? If your transgressions are multiplied, what do you do to him?
Chonset bol ta le chun Pathen ichan geijin asuna dem? Avel vel in chonse ta le chun ama lungthim ichan gei asukha dem?
7 If you are righteous, what do you give him? Or what does he receive from your hand?
Chonphat bol hile chun ama a dinga thilpeh loupi khat ahidem? Ama chu ipi nape tadem?
8 Your wickedness may hurt a man as you are, and your righteousness may profit a son of man.
Ahipoi nang chonset chun nangma tobang mihem ho chun adoulel ahin, chule nathilpha bol jong chun mihem mama aphatchom pi sah ahi.
9 "By reason of the multitude of oppressions they cry out. They cry for help by reason of the arm of the mighty.
Mihem techu bol gentheija aum teng ule apeng jah jeng jiuvin, mithahat thaneina noija chun apeng peng jiuve.
10 But none says, 'Where is God my Maker, who gives songs in the night,
Jan laileh la a hin saji pa eisempau Pathen chun hoiya umham ti jeng jong nadong kha pouve.
11 who teaches us more than the animals of the earth, and makes us wiser than the birds of the sky?'
Ganchate sanga hoijo a eisem pau leh chunga leng vachate sanga chingjo a eisem pau chu hoiya umham?
12 There they cry, but none gives answer, because of the pride of evil men.
Chule mihemte chu akiletsah jeh uvin aka teng uleh Pathen in adonbut jipoi.
13 Surely God will not hear an empty cry, neither will Shaddai regard it.
Ahinlah Pathen in ajah peh pouvin hatchungnung pa chun ngaisah in aneipoi tia seiding chu dihlou ahi.
14 How much less when you say you do not see him. The cause is before him, and you wait for him.
Nangin kamu theipoi tin naseije, ahinlah nanga hat le bou thudih chu hungdoh ding ahi.
15 But now, because he has not visited in his anger, neither does he greatly regard arrogance.
Nangin michonse ho chu lunghang in alethuhpoi natin chule migiloute ngaisah in aneipoi tin naseije.
16 Therefore Job opens his mouth with empty talk, and he multiplies words without knowledge."
Ahinlah Job nangin thu homkeu jeng naseiyin, mingol khat bangin thu naseije.
