The Bible

1

Agh dreggyr Job as dooyrt eh,

But Job answered and said,

2

Kys t'ou er chooney leshyn ta fegooish pooar? kys t'ou sauail yn roih gyn niart?

How hast thou helped him that is without power? how savest thou the arm that hath no strength?

3

Kys t'ou er choyrlaghey eshyn ta gyn creenaght? as kys t'ou dy slane er hoilshaghey yn chooish myr te?

How hast thou counselled him that hath no wisdom? and how hast thou plentifully declared the thing as it is?

4

Quoi da t'ou er n'ockley magh dty ghoan? as quoi'n spyrryd haink voïd?

To whom hast thou uttered words? and whose spirit came from thee?

5

Va ny tranlaasee niartal 'sy chenn earish er nyn stroie fo ny ushtaghyn, marish ny cummaltee elley.

Dead things are formed from under the waters, and the inhabitants thereof.

6

Ta niurin foshlit kiongoyrt rish, as toyrt-mow gyn coodagh.

Hell is naked before him, and destruction hath no covering.

7

T'eh sheeyney magh yn twoaie harrish y feaynid vooar, as t'eh cummal seose yn seihll er y folmid

He stretcheth out the north over the empty place, and hangeth the earth upon nothing.

8

T'eh kiangley seose ny ushtaghyn ayns e vodjallyn chiu, as cha vel y bodjal er ny scoltey foue.

He bindeth up the waters in his thick clouds; and the cloud is not rent under them.

9

T'eh coodaghey ynnyd e eanish, as skeayley bodjal harrish.

He holdeth back the face of his throne, and spreadeth his cloud upon it.

10

T'eh er hoiaghey cagliagh da ny ushtaghyn, derrey ta'n laa as yn oie cheet dy-cheilley.

He hath compassed the waters with bounds, until the day and night come to an end.

11

Ta pillaryn yn aer er-creau, as fo atchim ee e oghsan.

The pillars of heaven tremble and are astonished at his reproof.

12

T'eh dy rheynn yn aarkey liorish e phooar, as liorish e hushtey t'eh cur haart ny mooaralee.

He divideth the sea with his power, and by his understanding he smiteth through the proud.

13

Liorish e Spyrryd t'eh er choamrey ny niaughyn; e laue t'er chummey yn ard-nieu camlaagagh.

By his spirit he hath garnished the heavens; his hand hath formed the crooked serpent.

14

Cur-my-ner, cha vel ad shoh agh ayrn giare jeh ny raaidyn echey; agh cre cha beg ta nyn dushtey jeh e obbraghyn? as taarnagh e phooar quoi oddys toiggal?

Lo, these are parts of his ways: but how little a portion is heard of him? but the thunder of his power who can understand?
