< Job 16 >
1 Forsothe Joob answeride, and seide, Y `herde ofte siche thingis;
Te phoeiah Job loh a doo tih,
2 alle ye ben heuy coumfortouris.
“Te bang ol te muep ka yaak coeng. Nangmih boeih kah a hloep khaw thakthaenah ni.
3 Whether wordis ful of wynd schulen haue an ende? ether ony thing is diseseful to thee, if thou spekist?
Khohli ol te a bawtnah om a? Balae tih na doo hamla nang n'huek.
4 Also Y myyte speke thingis lijk to you, and `Y wolde, that youre soule were for my soule; and Y wolde coumfort you by wordis, and Y wolde moue myn heed on you;
Kai khaw nang bangla ka thui thai ta. Na hinglu te ka hinglu yueng la om koinih olthui neh nangmih te kan sun vetih ka lu lamloh nangmih taengah ka hinghuen van ni.
5 Y wolde make you stronge bi my mouth, and Y wolde moue lippis as sparynge you.
Ka ka neh nangmih te kan duel lah vetih ka hmuilai kah thaphohnah loh n'hoeptlang mako.
6 But what schal Y do? If Y speke, my sorewe restith not; and if Y am stille, it goith not awei fro me.
Ka thui akhaw ka thakkhoeihnah a rhoei moenih. Ka paa koinih kai lamloh metlam a caeh eh?
7 But now my sorewe hath oppressid me, and alle my lymes ben dryuun in to nouyt.
Ka hlangboel boeih khaw na pong uh tih ka ngak ngawn coeng.
8 My ryuelyngis seien witnessyng ayens me, and a fals spekere is reisid ayens my face, and ayenseith me.
Kai nan tonga sak khaw laipai la om coeng. Ka laithae khaw ka taengah pai sak tih, ka mikhmuh ah n'doo coeng.
9 He gaderide togidere his woodnesse in me, and he manaasside me, and gnastide ayens me with his teeth; myn enemye bihelde me with ferdful iyen.
A thintoek loh a baeh tih kai soah a konaeh. Kai taengah a no te a tah coeng. Ka rhal loh kai soah a mik a huel.
10 Thei openyden her mouthis on me, and thei seiden schenschip, and smytiden my cheke; and thei ben fillid with my peynes.
A ka neh kai n'ang thil uh. Kokhahnah neh ka kam han taam uh tih, kai taengah huek ha cu uh.
11 God hath closid me togidere at the wickid, and hath youe me to the hondis of wickid men.
Pathen loh kai he hlang thae taengla n'det tih halang kut dongla kai m'muek.
12 Y thilke riche man and famouse sum tyme, am al to brokun sudeynli; `he helde my nol; he hath broke me, and hath set me as in to a signe.
Thayoeituipan la ka om vaengah kai m'phae. Ka rhawn ah n'khak tih kai he n'taekyak. Te dongah kai he amah ham kutnoek la m'pai sak coeng.
13 He hath cumpasside me with hise speris, he woundide togidere my leendis; he sparide not, and schedde out myn entrails in to the erthe.
Ka taengah a lithen rhoek loh m'vael uh tih ka kuel a khoh. Lungma a ti kolla diklai dongah ka hmuet phawt coeng.
14 He beet me with wounde on wounde; he as a giaunt felde in on me.
A puut hman ah a puut loh kai m'va. Hlangrhalh bangla kai taengah cu.
15 Y sewide togidere a sak on my skyn; and Y hilide my fleisch with aische.
Ka vin soah tlamhni ka hui tih ka ki khaw laipi neh ka poelyoe coeng.
16 My face bolnyde of wepynge, and myn iyeliddis wexiden derke.
Ka maelhmai he rhahnah neh nok la nok uh tih ka mikkhu khaw nut coeng.
17 Y suffride these thingis with out wickidnesse of myn hond, `that is, werk, whanne Y hadde cleene preieris to God.
Te cakhaw ka kut ah kuthlahnah om pawt tih ka thangthuinah khaw cil.
18 Erthe, hile thou not my blood, and my cry fynde not in thee a place of hidyng.
Diklai nang loh ka thii he vuei boeh. Ka pang ol he khaw hmuen om boel saeh.
19 `For, lo! my witnesse is in heuene; and the knowere of my consience is in hiye places.
Vaan ah pataeng kai kah laipai om tih, ka hlangcal khaw hmuensang ah om coeng ke.
20 A! my frendis, ful of wordis, myn iye droppith to God.
Ka hui khaw Pathen taengah, kai kah hmuiyoi la om tih ka mik khaw pha coeng.
21 And `Y wolde, that a man were demed so with God, as the sone of man is demed with his felowe.
Hlang capa tah hlang ham neh a hui ham Pathen taengah a thui ta.
22 `For lo! schorte yeeris passen, and Y go a path, bi which Y schal not turne ayen.
Kum a tarhing ah ha pawk vetih, ka mael voel mueh caehlong ah ka cet pawn ni.”
