Job 30
1 And now, laughed at me, Have the younger in days than I, Whose fathers I have loathed to set With the dogs of my flock.
Toe vaihi loe kai pongah saning kanawk kaminawk mah ang pahnui o thuih, nihcae ampanawk loe ka panuet moe, tuutoep uinawk hoi nawnto suek han mataeng doeh ka koeh ai.
2 Also — the power of their hands, why [is it] to me? On them hath old age perished.
Ue, nihcae ban thacakhaih loe kai han tidoeh avanghaih om ai, nihcae thacakhaih loe anghmat boih boeh.
3 With want and with famine gloomy, Those fleeing to a dry place, Formerly a desolation and waste,
Nihcae loe zok amthlam o pongah, minawk hoi angkom o ai; kami om ai angqai krang praezaek ah ni amhet o.
4 Those cropping mallows near a shrub, And broom-roots [is] their food.
Kapring thungah phrohnawk to a aah o moe, caak hanah imphok kung tangzun to takaeh o.
5 From the midst they are cast out, (They shout against them as a thief),
Nihcae loe kaminawk ohhaih ahmuen hoiah haek o moe, (kamqu hangh thuih baktih hangh o thuih; )
6 In a frightful place of valleys to dwell, Holes of earth and clefts.
tahawt thung ih cathaeng khaw thungah oh o moe, longkhaw thung hoi lungsong khaw thungah a oh o.
7 Among shrubs they do groan, Under nettles they are gathered together.
Kapring thungah hrang baktiah hangh o moe, soekhring thungah nawnto amkhueng o.
8 Sons of folly — even sons without name, They have been smitten from the land.
Nihcae loe kamthu caa ah oh o, ue, khosak kasae kaminawk ih caa ah oh o moe, prae thung hoi haek ih kaminawk ah oh o.
9 And now, their song I have been, And I am to them for a byword.
Vaihi loe nihcae mah laa ang sak o thuih; ue, nihcae mah kasae thuih ih kami ah ka oh boeh.
10 They have abominated me, They have kept far from me, And from before me have not spared to spit.
Nihcae mah ang panuet o moe, kangthla ah ang oh o taak; ka mikhmai tamtui hoi pathoih hanah tongaah o ai.
11 Because His cord He loosed and afflicteth me, And the bridle from before me, They have cast away.
Sithaw mah kalii hoiah ang kah moe, ang pacaekthlaek pongah, ka hmaa ah angsumhaih tawn o ai boeh.
12 On the right hand doth a brood arise, My feet they have cast away, And they raise up against me, Their paths of calamity.
Ka bantang bangah thendoengnawk angthawk o moe, ka khok hae ang cawh o; kai amrohaih loklam to a sak o.
13 They have broken down my path, By my calamity they profit, 'He hath no helper.'
Ka loklam to phraek o moe, kai amtimh hanah azom o; nihcae bomhkung mi doeh om ai.
14 As a wide breach they come, Under the desolation have rolled themselves.
Nihcae loe kalen pui akhaw thungah kakun tui baktiah, kai amrosak hanah tha hoi kai khaeah ang cawnh o.
15 He hath turned against me terrors, It pursueth as the wind mine abundance, And as a thick cloud, Hath my safety passed away.
Zitthok hmuennawk to ka nuiah phak moe, takhi song baktiah ka hinghaih hnukah patom o; ka tawnh ih hmuenmae loe tamai baktiah anghmat boeh.
16 And now, in me my soul poureth itself out, Seize me do days of affliction.
Vaihi ka palungthin koih boeh moe, patangkhanghaih aninawk mah ang naeh boeh.
17 At night my bone hath been pierced in me, And mine eyelids do not lie down.
Aqum mah ka huh hae thunh moe, thaqui kana ka pauep thai ai boeh.
18 By the abundance of power, Is my clothing changed, As the mouth of my coat it doth gird me.
Ka nathaih nung parai pongah, kaimah ih khubuen mah zaeng ih baktih toengah, ang zaeng caeng.
19 Casting me into mire, And I am become like dust and ashes.
Anih mah tangnong thungah ang nuih, kai loe maiphu hoi tavai baktiah ni ka oh sut boeh.
20 I cry unto Thee, And Thou dost not answer me, I have stood, and Thou dost consider me.
Ka Angraeng Nang khaeah ka qah, toe nang pathim ai; kang doet tahang, toe tiah doeh nang sah ai.
21 Thou art turned to be fierce to me, With the strength of Thy hand, Thou oppressest me.
Ka nuiah tahmenhaih na tawn ai; thacakhaih na ban hoiah nang pacaekthlaek.
22 Thou dost lift me up, On the wind Thou dost cause me to ride, And Thou meltest — Thou levellest me.
Kai hae nang toengh tahang moe, takhi to nang thuengsak pongah, ka takpum hae nam rosak ving boeh.
23 For I have known To death Thou dost bring me back, And [to] the house appointed for all living.
Kahing kaminawk boih hanah na sak pae ih im hoi duekhaih thungah, nang caeh haih tih, tiah ka panoek.
24 Surely not against the heap Doth He send forth the hand, Though in its ruin they have safety.
Sithaw mah amrohaih phaksak hanah ban phok naah, nihcae mah tahmenhaih hni o langla cadoeh, atho om ai boeh.
25 Did not I weep for him whose day is hard? Grieved hath my soul for the needy.
Raihaih tongh kami to ka qah haih ai maw? Amtang kami palung ka sae haih ai maw?
26 When good I expected, then cometh evil, And I wait for light, and darkness cometh.
Kahoih hmuen ka zing naah, kasae hmuen to angzoh; aanghaih ka zing naah, vinghaih to angzoh.
27 My bowels have boiled, and have not ceased, Gone before me have days of affliction.
Kai ih pathin loe bet moe, anghakhaih om ai; patangkhanghaih aninawk loe kai tongh hanah angzoh o.
28 Mourning I have gone without the sun, I have risen, in an assembly I cry.
Niduem naah palungsethaih hoiah ka oh; kaminawk amkhuenghaih ahmuen ah kang doet moe, ka hang.
29 A brother I have been to dragons, And a companion to daughters of the ostrich.
Kai loe pahui puinawk ih nawkamya ah ka oh moe, bukbuhnawk ih ampui ah ka oh.
30 My skin hath been black upon me, And my bone hath burned from heat,
Ka nganhin loe amnum moe, ka huhnawk doeh kabae thuih pa ai boeh.
31 And my harp doth become mourning, And my organ the sound of weeping.
Kai ih katoeng loe palungsethaih ah angcoeng boeh, kai ih tamoi doeh qahhaih lok ah ni angcoeng ving boeh.
