Job 26

1 Then responded Job, and said: —

Hatei Job ni a pathung teh,

2 How hast thou given help to one of no-strength? given victory to an arm of no-power?

Hnotithainae ka tawn hoeh e teh, bangtelamaw na kabawp, thaonae ka tawn hoeh e kut teh, bangtelamaw na rungngang thai.

3 How hast thou given counsel to one of no-wisdom? or, effective wisdom, abundantly made known?

Lungangnae ka tawn hoeh e teh, bangtelamaw na toun thai, tami moikapap koevah kalan e pouknae hah bangtelamaw na poe thai.

4 Whom hast thou taught speech? Whose inspiration hath come from thee?

Api koe maw lawk teh na pâpho pouh. Apie muitha maw nama koe ka phat.

5 The shades, tremble, beneath the waters and their inhabitants;

Tami kadout hah a pâyaw teh, tui rahim vah ao teh, haw vah kaawm e naw hoi a pâyaw awh.

6 Naked is hades before him, and there is no covering to destruction; (Sheol h7585)

A hmalah duenae caici lah ao. Rawkphainae ni ramuknae tawn hoeh. (Sheol h7585)

7 Who stretcheth out the north over emptiness, hangeth the earth upon nothingness;

Kalvan teh ahrawnghrang dawk a kangdue. Talai hai ahrawnghrang dawk a kâbang.

8 Who bindeth up the waters in his thick clouds, and the cloud is not rent beneath them;

Katha poung e tâmai dawk tui hah mek a racut teh, a rahim e tâmai hah kâbawng awh hoeh.

9 Who shutteth-in the face of the throne, he spreadeth over it his cloud;

A bawitungkhung e hmalah a ramuk teh, a lathueng vah tâmai a tabo sak.

10 A, boundary, hath he encircled on the face of the waters, as far as where light ends in darkness;

Angnae hoi hmonae langri a ta nahanelah tui dawk a langri a ruen pouh.

11 The pillars of the heavens, are shaken, and are terrified at his rebuke:

Kalvan toenae khom a kâhuet teh, a tounnae hah kângai lah a ru.

12 By his strength, hath he excited the sea, and, by his skill, hath he shattered the Crocodile:

A hnotithainae lahoi tuipui a thaw sak. Bahu lahoi tûilî hah thawk a kapek.

13 By his spirit, hath he arched the heavens, His hand hath pierced the fleeing serpent.

A muitha lahoi kalvan a pathoup sak. Kamleng e khorui hai a kut hoi a sak.

14 Lo! these, are the fringes of his way, and what a whisper of a word hath been heard of him! But, the thunder of his might, who could understand?

Khenhaw! hetnaw heh lamthung nueng kamtawngnae doeh. Ahnimouh koe e thai awh e hrolawk teh, banghloimaw a thoung. Hateiteh, keitat hnotithainae hah, apinimaw a panue thai.
