Job 36
1 Elihu [finished by] saying this:
Elihu in athusei ajom nalaijin:
2 “[Job, ] be patient with me a little longer, because I have something else to teach you. I have something else to say that God [wants you to know].
Thutah muchet sah ding kanei nahlai jeh in seibe kit nalai inge, ijeh inem itile Pathen thalhenga seiding kanei nalaije.
3 I will tell you what I have learned from many sources, in order to show that God, my creator, is just/fair.
Keiman eisempa chonphatna thu giltah a nelna kapeh ding ahi.
4 I am not saying anything to you that is false; I, who am standing in front of you, am someone who understands things (very well/perfectly) [HYP].
Keima hetna bukim nei kahi jeh in thutah tailou thudang imacha keiman kaseipoi.
5 “Hey, God is [very] powerful, and he does not despise anyone, and he understands everything.
Pathen chu hatchungnung pa ahin, ahinlah aman koima isah louvin abolpoi. Ama chu thanei naleh thil hetkhen themna akopto a hatchungnung pa ahi.
6 He does not allow wicked people to remain alive, and he always acts justly toward those who are poor.
Aman migilou ahinghoi jipon, ahinlah suhgentheija umho chu them achan ji'e.
7 He always watches over [MTY] those who are righteous; he allows them to sit on thrones [and rule] with kings, and they are honored forever.
Aman nolna bei miho a konin amit ahei mang ngaipoi, ahinlah laltouna a leng ho toh atoukhom sah jin chuleh aimatih channa din achoisang ji'e.
8 But if people [who commit crimes] are caught, they [are thrown into prison and] are caused to suffer by being fastened with chains.
Thihkol a ana kihen hihen lang chuleh gentheina a chu kha ana hijong leu,
9 When that happens, God shows them what they have done; he shows them the sins that they have committed, and he shows them that they have been proud/arrogant.
Aman akiletsah nau amuchet sah jin, chuleh achonset nau avetsah ji'e.
10 He causes them to listen [MTY] to what he is warning them, and he commands them to turn away from [doing what is] evil.
Alungthim u alahmang peh in, chule thilse a konna akilehei nadiu thupeh apejin ahi.
11 If they (listen to/heed) him and serve him, [after they get out of prison] they will prosper for all the years that they are alive and be peaceful/happy.
Amahon thu ngaiju hen, chuleh athusei ngaipeh ule ahinkho lhum kei uva khantouna jousea phatthei kiboh diu ahi.
12 But if they do not (listen/pay attention) to him, they will die violently, not knowing [why God is causing them to die].
Ahinlah athusei ngai ding anoplou uleh amaho chemjam a kithat ding ahin, chuleh hetna lhahsam jeh a thidiu ahi.
13 “Godless/Wicked people continue being angry, and they do not cry out for help, [even] when God is punishing them.
Ijeh inem itile Pathen neiloute chu lunghan nan adimset un, aman a engbol teng u jongle nei kithopiuvin tia kou ding chu anom ji pouve.
14 They die while they are still young, disgraced because of their very immoral behavior [EUP].
Ahinkhou chonchatvai na a aman jou nung uleh khangdong cha chan athijiuvin ahi.
15 But God teaches people by causing them to suffer; by afflicting them, he causes them to listen to [MTY] what he is telling them.
Ahinlah agenthei thoh jeh u chun aman ahuhdoh jiuvin ahi. Ijeh inem itile agenthei nauva kon thungaije ahiljin ahi.
16 “And Job, [I think that] God [wants to] bring you out of your troubles and allow you to live without distress; he wants your table to be full of very nice food.
Job Pathen in vangsetna ho a konin napui doh in lungnat naho a konin ongthol tah in nahoijin, nadokhang chungah anpha pha nalui doh peh e.
17 But now, you are being punished [MTY] as wicked people are punished; [God] [PRS] has been punishing you (justly/as you deserve).
Ahinlah nangin Pathen neiloute thu kitan ding kichat nan nadim in, lungkham hih in thutanna leh thudih'a thutanna chu machal jing ding ahi.
18 So be careful that you are not deceived by [desiring to acquire] money or that you are not ruined by [accepting] large bribes.
Ahin kivephan, achuti louleh nei le gou vin nalhem lha khantin nehguh kilah jeh in nang leh nang chonse hih in.
19 [If you are deceived by those things, ] it certainly will not [RHQ] help you to cry out when you are distressed; all of your strength will not help you.
Nanei leh nagou ahiloule thahattah'a nakihabol naho chun lung gentheina jouse a konna nahoidoh jou ding hinam?
20 Do not wish that it would be nighttime [in order that God will not see you and punish you], because night is the time when [even] people-groups are destroyed!
Jan hunglhun kal ngahlel hih in, ijeh inem itile hichu mihem te kisuhmang nading jan ahibouve.
21 Be careful not to [begin doing] evil things, because [God] has caused you to suffer to prevent you from doing evil.
Kiging phan thilse a konin kileheijin, chonsetna hinkho a konna nahoidoh nadinga Pathen in hiche gentheina hohi ahin lhunsah ahi.
22 “Hey, God is extremely powerful; there is certainly [RHQ] no teacher who teaches like he does.
Ven Pathen hi thahat chungnung ahin ama tobang mihil thei ding koi um'em?
23 No one has [RHQ] told him what he should do, and no one has [RHQ] said to him, ‘You have done what is wrong!’
Koima chan hichehi nabol ding ahi atitheipon, ahilouleh nabolkhel tai tia seithei ding chu,
24 People have [always] sung to praise him, so you also should never forget to praise him for what he has done.
Hiche ho khel chun athil bolthei thahatna chu achoian un, vahchoina la ho asauve.
25 Everyone has seen [what he has done], but [sometimes] we can see it only from far away.
Gamla tah ahijeng vang'in hiche ho chu mijousen amucheh uve.
26 “Hey, God is very great, and we are not able to know how great he is, and we do not know how old he is.
Ven Pathen hi eihon ihet sang uvin aloupi jon amakum ho chu sim jou hilou ahi.
27 He draws water up [from the earth and puts it in clouds] and causes it to become rain.
Aman twi chu ahu in achop touvin chuleh chuti chun alhitheng in go asosah kit e.
28 The rain pours down from the sky/clouds; God causes abundant showers to fall on everyone.
Meilah a konin go ahin sung lhan, chuleh mi jousen aphatchom pi ji'e.
29 No one can [RHQ] understand how the clouds move [across the sky] or how it thunders in the sky where God lives.
Meilom hung kijel ji khu kon ahet theija chule vanna vanging kithong jeju a akitol lele khu kon ahetdoh jou ding ham?
30 He causes lightning to flash all around him, but he causes the bottom of the oceans to remain dark.
Ven ama kimvel a kolphe khu iti avahsah ji a, chule twikhanglen to geija avahsah khu iti ham?
31 By providing plenty of rain for us, he enables us to have abundant food.
Hiche athahat athil boltheina ho a hi mihem te avah khang ji a nehle chah neng jeng junga apeh ji ahi.
32 [It is as though] he holds the lightning in his hands, and [then] he commands it to strike where he wants it to.
Aman akhut in keh chang aki choijin chuleh adoina laitah a chudin aseplha jin ahi.
33 When we hear his thunder, we know that there will be a storm, and the cattle know it, too.”
Hiche van gin chun ahina aphondoh a huipi gopi chun alunghan alungsatna chu aphondoh ahi.
