“Ki ktien jong me ki la kyrshan ia uta uban sa kyllon, bad me la pynskhem ia kita ki khohsiew kiba la dor.” (Job 4:4)
**************************************
Kine ki long ki kyntien jong U Eliphas ia U Job, kiba u kren ha ka por ba U Job u mad ia ki jingeh bad kine ki kyntien ki la long ka jingai-mynsiem ia U Job, ki long ki jing pynkynmaw jong U Eliphas ba U Job u la ju long ka jingai-mynsiem ia kiba bun, u la ju long ka jingpynskhem ia kita kiba dor ki khohsiew (Job 4:4). Ki jingkren jong U Eliphas wat ha ka por jong ka jingshitom ka jong U Job, nga ngeit ba ka la long ka jingai-mynsiem ia U Job, namar ki long ki jingpyn kynmaw ba U Job u la leh ia kaba bha da kaba u long ka jingai-mynsiem ia kiwei.
Ha ka kot bala thoh da U L.O.

Kiba bun ki nongkren kiba dei ban ai jingkren ha kata ka por ki la iaroh ia ka jingtrei jong uta u pastor bad ia ki jinglong ki jong u. Haba ka pali jong U Dawson kala poi, u la kren kumba kiwei ki nongkren ki la ia kren hashwa jong u, shaphang ka jinglong jong uta u pastor uba la khlad, hynrei ha kajuh ka por ula kren ia ki dkhot jong kata ka balang u ong, “If many of you had been in attendance at the regular services of the church as you are now at the funeral service, your pastor would still be alive.” (Lada bun na phi, phi la smat ban wan sha ki jingiaseng ba ju pynlong man ka por ha ka ingmane kumne kumba phi wan ha kane ka sngi leit on tep, u pastor jong phi un dang im). Bad kata ka jingkren jong u ka la pyn kyndit ia kiba bun, hynrei ka long pat ka jingshisha ba ka jingnoh mynsiem khamtam jong ki pastor ne ki nongtrei ha ka kam ka jong U Blei, ka long ba kiba bun ki briew ki pyrkhat ba ki pastor kim donkam shuh ia ka jingai mynsiem, bad kumta kim ai mynsiem ia ki. Hynrei, ngi donkam ban sngewthuh ba ma ki ruh kidei tang ki briew, ki donkam ia ka jingai mynsiem jong ki parabangeit ha ki balang kiba ki ki don. U L.O. Dawson u la ong shuh shuh ha kata ka jingkren, “Empty pews broke your pastor’s heart. He did not know of your love. He died for lack of the things you have today so beautifully said and done.” (Ki ben kiba thylli ki pynpang ia ka mynsiem jong u pastor. Um ioh mad ia ka jingieit ka jong phi. U iap namar shibun kiei kiei kiba um ju iohi ne iohsngew na phi ia kiba phi la pyni bad kren mynta). Bunsien ha ka jinglong briew ha ka por ba dang im ngi nang tang ban woh nia ne ban pyrshang ban pynrem wat ia ka jingim jong kiba bun ki nongtrei ha ka kam ka jong U Blei, hynrei ynda haba ki la iap ne khlad noh ngi pyrshang ban iaroh bad ban iohi tang ia ki kam ba bha jong ki. Ah! lada ngi lah ban iaroh kumta ha ka por ba ki dang im ia ki kam ki jong ki, khlem pep kin ioh mynsiem ba kin nang lah ban trei kham bha. Ha kaba pynkut ia kata ka kot jong u, U Dawson u thoh, “More preachers die from broken hearts than from swelled heads.” (Shibun ki nongialap ne ki nongtrei ha ka kam ka jong U Blei ki iap namar ka jingpait ka mynsiem ym na ka jingshitom jong ka khlieh).
Ai ba kumba long U Job, ba ki kyntien jong ngi ruh kin long shisha ka jingkyrshan ia kiba kyllon, ngin pyrshang ban ai mynsiem bad iaroh ia ki kam ba bha jong ki katba ki dang im, namarba ki donkam ia ki jingiai-mynsiem ba kin nang lah ban trei kham bha. Nai ap haduh ba kin da khlad na kane ka pyrthei ba ngin sa iathuh ia ki kam ba bha jong ki, hynrei to ai ba ngin pyrshang ban ai mynsiem ia ki naduh ba ki dang im, da kaba kynmaw ba ki nongsharai balang ruh ki donkam ia ka jingai-mynsiem jong phi.
