< Job 17 >
1 Mi spirit schal be maad feble; my daies schulen be maad schort, and oneli the sepulcre is left to me.
“Ka mueihla he pat tih ka khohnin loh khum coeng, kai hamla phuel om coeng.
2 Y have not synned, and myn iye dwellith in bittirnessis.
Ka taengah a omsasaipat pai moenih a? Te dongah amih koek ham khaw ka mik ah rhaeh pai saeh.
3 Lord, delyuere thou me, and sette thou me bisidis thee; and the hond of ech fiyte ayens me.
Kai kah rhikhang he namah hamla khueh laeh. Anih te ulong ka kut dongla a khoom eh?
4 Thou hast maad the herte of hem fer fro doctryn, `ethir knowyng of treuthe; therfor thei schulen not be enhaunsid.
Amih kah lungbuei te lungmingnah lamloh na khoem pah coeng. Te dongah na pomsang sak mahpawh.
5 He bihetith prey to felowis, and the iyen of hise sones schulen faile.
Khoyo la a hui a phoe vaengah a ca rhoek mik tah hma coeng.
6 He hath set as in to a prouerbe of the comyn puple, and his saumple bifor hem.
Kai he pilnam kah a thuidoek la n'khueh tih, maelhmai dongkah timthoihnah la ka om.
7 Myn `iye dasewide at indignacioun; and my membris ben dryuun as in to nouyt.
Ka mik he konoinah neh hmang coeng tih ka pumrho he khokhawn bangla boeih om.
8 Iust men schulen wondre on this thing; and an innocent schal be reisid ayens an ypocrite.
Te dongah aka thuem khaw a pong sak tih lailak taengah ommongsitoe a haenghang sak.
9 And a iust man schal holde his weie, and he schal adde strengthe to clene hondis.
Tedae aka dueng loh amah longpuei te a tuuk vetih, a kut cim khaw a thaa sai ni.
10 Therfor alle `ye be conuertid, and come ye; and Y schal not fynde in you ony wiys man.
Amih te boeih na mael sak uh coeng. Na pawk uh to cakhaw nangmih ah hlangcueih ka hmu mahpawh.
11 My daies ben passid; my thouytis ben scaterid, turmentynge myn herte.
Ka khohnin loh thok coeng. Ka thinko kah kohnek la ka poeknah mawth coeng.
12 Tho han turned the nyyt `in to day; and eft aftir derknessis hope liyt.
Khoyin te khothaih la a khueh tih, a hmuep tom te vangnah neh a yoei sak.
13 If Y `susteyne, ether suffre pacientli, helle is myn hous; and Y haue arayede my bed in derknessis. (Sheol )
Saelkhui te ka im bangla ka lamtawn tih, hmaisuep ah ka rhaenghmuen ka saelh. (Sheol )
14 Y seide to rot, Thou art my fadur; and to wormes, Ye ben my modir and my sister.
Vaam taengah, ‘A pa nang,’ ka ti nah tih a rhit taengah, ‘A nu neh ka ngannu,’ ka ti nah coeng.
15 Therfor where is now myn abidyng? and who biholdith my pacience?
Te dongah menim ka ngaiuepnah tih, ka ngaiuepnah he unim aka mae?
16 Alle my thingis schulen go doun in to deppeste helle; gessist thou, whether reste schal be to me, nameli there. (Sheol )
Saelkhui thohka te suntla vetih, laipi khuila rhenten n'ael aya?” a ti. (Sheol )
