< Job 37 >

1 Yea, at this, my heart quaketh, and starteth up out of its place.
He dongah ka lungbuei lakueng tih a hmuen lamloh cungpet.
2 Hear! oh hear! the raging of his voice, A growling sound also, out of his mouth, goeth forth;
A ol dongkah khoponah te hnatun hnatun. A ka lamloh caitawknah thoeng.
3 Under the whole heavens, he letteth it loose, His lightning also, unto the wings of the earth;
Vaan boeih hmuiah a hlah tih a vangnah loh diklai hmoi duela pawk.
4 After it, roareth a voice, He thundereth with his voice of majesty, Nor will he hold them back, when his voice is heard.
A hnukkah a kawk ol khaw a hoemdamnah ol neh hum tih a ol a yaak vaengah rhaek uelh sak boeh.
5 GOD thundereth with his voice, wonderfully, Doing great things, which we cannot know;
Pathen loh a ol neh khobaerhambae a saii khungdaeng tih hum dae m'ming uh moenih.
6 For, to the snow, he saith, Fall earthwards, —Also to the downpour of rain, yea the downpour of his mighty rains.
Vuelsong neh khotlan khonal te, 'Diklai ah om saeh,’ a ti vaengah khotlan khonal khaw a sarhi tak.
7 On the hand of every man, he setteth a seal, that all men may take note of his doing.
Amah kutngo hlang boeih ming sak ham hlang boeih kah kut te rhodaek a soei pah.
8 So then the wild-beast hath gone into covert, and, in its lairs, doth it remain.
Te vaengah mulhing khaw a khui la kun tih a khuisaek ah kho a sak.
9 Out of a chamber cometh a storm-wind, and, out of the north, cold.
Cangpalam te imkhui lamloh, khosik te tlangpuei lamloh ha thoeng.
10 By the breath of GOD, is given—frost, and, the breadth of waters, is congealed;
Pathen kah hiil lamloh rhaelnu khaw a khueh tih tui daang mangdaeng mangtok la om.
11 Also, with moisture, burdeneth he the thick cloud, He disperseth his lightning-cloud;
Khomai te cingtui loh a rhih sak tih cingmai loh amah kah vangnah te a taekyak.
12 Yea, the same, in circles, turneth itself to and fro, by his steering them to their work, whithersoever he commandeth them, over the face of the world, towards the earth.
Te khaw diklai kah lunglai hman ah a uen boeih te saii hamla a niing, a niing dongah kuluk la a hil.
13 Whether, as a rod, or for his earth, or in lovingkindness, he causeth it to come.
Te te caitueng lam khaw, a khohmuen ham khaw, sitlohnah ham khaw a thoeng sak.
14 Give thou ear unto this, O Job, Stay, and consider well the wonders of GOD: —
Job, he he hnakaeng lah. Pai lamtah Pathen kah khobaerhambae he yakming lah.
15 Canst thou got to know of GOD’S giving charge over them, or of the causing of the lightning of his cloud to shine forth?
Te rhoek soah Pathen loh a khueh tih a cingmai kah vangnah a sae te na ming a?
16 Canst thou get to know concerning the poisings of the thick cloud, the wonders of one who is perfect in knowledge?
Poeknah rhuemtuet, mangvawt khomai a haainah te na ming a?
17 That thy garments should be hot when he quieteth the earth from the south?
Tuithim loh khohmuen a mong sak vaengah na himbai te aka bae sak,
18 Didst thou spread out, with him, the skies, strong as a molten mirror?
Hmaidan a hlawn bangla khomong a thah la amah taengah na nulh thai aya?
19 Let us know what we shall say to him, We cannot set in order, by reason of darkness.
Amah taengah metla n'thui ham khaw kaimih tueng lah. Hmaisuep hmai ah n'tawn uh thai pawt oe.
20 Shall it be declared to him—that I would speak? Were any man to say aught, he might he destroyed?
Hlang loh a dolh hamla thui cakhaw ka thui bangla amah taengah a tae pa aya?
21 Yet, now, men see not the light, bright though it is in the skies, when, a wind, hath passed over, and cleansed them.
Tahae ah khaw vangnah a hmuh uh moenih. A aa te khohli loh a yawn tih a caihcil hnukkah khomong dongah tueng.
22 Out of the north, a golden light cometh, Upon GOD, is fearful splendour:
Tlangpuei lamkah sui te mueithennah rhih om Pathen taengla pawk.
23 The Almighty, whom we have not fully found out, is great in vigour, —Neither, justice nor abounding righteousness, will he weaken.
Tlungthang te thadueng a len dongah a tiktamnah m'hmuh lek moenih. Duengnah khaw a cungkuem dongah hlang a phaep moenih.
24 Therefore, do men revere him, He will not regard any who are wise in heart.
Hlang rhoek loh amah te a rhih uh tangloeng dongah lungbuei aka cueih rhoek takuem khaw a sawt moenih,” a ti.
