Then Elihu continued:
“You [three] men who [think that you] [SAR] are very wise, hear me; listen to what I am saying, you men who [say that you] know so much.
When we [SYN] hear what other people [like you] say, we [RHQ] think carefully about what they say [to determine what is good and what is bad], like we [SYN] taste food [to determine what is good].
We need to decide [who is saying] what is right and to determine among ourselves what is good/best.
Job has said, ‘I am innocent, but God has refused to judge me fairly/justly.
Even though I have always done what is right, he is lying about me. Even though I have not done what is wrong, he has caused me to suffer, and I will certainly die.’
(Is there any person like Job, who insults others as easily as people accept a drink of water?/There is no person like Job, who insults others as easily as people accept a drink of water.) [RHQ]
He habitually associates with people who do what is evil and spends time with wicked people.
He has said, ‘It is useless for people to try to please God.’
10 ১০ এতেকে হে বিজ্ঞ লোকবিলাক মোলৈ কাণ পাতা; ঈশ্বৰে যে কুকৰ্ম কৰিব, আৰু সৰ্ব্বশক্তিমান জনাই যে অন্যায় কৰিব, এইয়ে তেওঁৰ পৰা দুৰা থাকক।
“So, you men who [claim that you] understand everything, listen to me! Almighty God would never consider doing anything that is wicked or wrong [DOU]!
He (pays back/punishes) people for what they have done; he gives them what they deserve for the way that they have conducted their lives.
Truly, Almighty God never does what is wicked; he always [LIT] does what is fair/just.
The authority that he has to rule everything on the earth, no one [RHQ] gave it to him; no one [RHQ] put him in control of the whole world. [He has always had that authority].
If he would take his spirit back to himself,
everyone would die [immediately], and their corpses would soon become dirt again.
“So, [Job], if [you say that you] understand everything, listen to what I am saying.
God could certainly not [RHQ] govern the world if he hated doing what is fair/just. So, will you condemn God, who is righteous and powerful, [saying that what he has done is wrong]?
18 ১৮ ৰজাক জানো “তুমি অধম,” এই বুলি কব পাৰি? আৰু সম্ভ্ৰান্ত লোকবিলাকক, “তোমালোকে দুষ্ট,” এই বুলি জানো কব পাৰি?
He tells [some] kings that they are worthless, and he says to [some] officials that they are wicked.
19 ১৯ তেন্তে, যি জনাই অধ্যক্ষসকলক মুখলৈ নাচায়, আৰু দৰিদ্ৰতকৈ ধনীকো উত্তম বুলি জ্ঞান নকৰে, এনে জনাক কিমান কম পৰিমাণে তাক কব পাৰি! কিয়নো সকলোৱেই তেওঁৰ হাতেৰে কৰা বস্তু।
He does not favor rulers [more than he favors others]; he does not favor rich people more than poor people, because he created all of them.
20 ২০ সিবিলাক নিমিষতে, এনে কি মাজ নিশাতেই মৰে; লোকবিলাকে কঁপি কঁপি পৰলোকলৈ গমণ কৰে, আৰু পৰাক্ৰমী বিলাকক বিনাহাতে কাঢ়ি নিয়া হয়।
People [often] die suddenly; he strikes them at midnight and they die; he even gets rid of mighty people without the help of any humans [SYN].
“He sees [MTY] everything that people do; [when we walk, ] he watches every step that we take.
There is no gloom or darkness [DOU] that is so dark that sinners can hide [from him] in that darkness.
23 ২৩ যি স্থলত মনুষ্য বিচাৰৰ অৰ্থে ঈশ্বৰৰ ওচৰলৈ যাব, এনে স্থলত তেওঁ তাৰ বিষয়ে বৰ চিন্তা কৰিব লগীয়া হয়।
God does not [need to] set a time when we will stand in front of him in order that he may judge us. [He can judge us whenever he wants to].
He destroys mighty people without [needing to] investigate [what they have done], and he appoints others to take their places.
25 ২৫ এই হেতুকে তেওঁ তেওঁবিলাকৰ কাৰ্যবোৰ জানে, আৰু ৰাতিতে সকলো লুটিয়াই পেলায়, তাতে তেওঁবিলাক চুৰ্ণীকৃত হয়।
Because he [already] knows what they have done, he removes them at night and gets rid of them.
Where [many] people can see it, he strikes/punishes them because of the wicked things that they have done;
he strikes them because they turned away from doing what he wanted them to do and did not pay attention to any of his commands.
They [mistreated] the poor people, with the result that those poor people cried out to God [for help], and he heard those afflicted people when they cried out [to him].
But if God decides to do nothing [to punish wicked people], no one can criticize/condemn him. If a godless/wicked man rules a nation, a man who tricks/deceives the people,
30 ৩০ অধৰ্মি লোকে যেন ৰাজত্ত্ব নকৰে; আৰু প্ৰজাবিলাকক ফান্দত পেলাবলৈ যেন কোনো নাথাকে, এই নিমিত্তে, জাতিৰ পৰাই হওক, বা মানুহৰ পৰাই হওক, তেওঁ মুখ ঢাকিলে কোনে তেওঁৰ দৰ্শন পাব পাৰে?
and if [God] hides his face [with the result that he does not see that ruler or punish him], no one will be able to prevent that ruler [from doing those things].
“Job, have you or anyone else ever said to God, ‘I have been punished [for my sins], and I will not sin any more;
32 ৩২ যি নেদেখোঁ, তাক মোক দেখুৱাই দিয়া; যদি মই অন্যায় কৰিলোঁ, তেন্তে মই আৰু নকৰোঁ, “এই বুলি ঈশ্বৰৰ আগত কোৱা উচিত নে?
so teach/show me what [sins I have committed]; if I have done anything that is evil, I will not do it any more’?
33 ৩৩ ঈশ্বৰে দিয়া প্ৰতিফল তোমাৰ ইচ্ছাৰ দৰে হয়নে যে, তুমি তাক অগ্ৰাহ্য কৰিলা? কিয়নো মনোনীত কৰা কাৰ্য তোমাৰ হে, মোৰ নহয়; এই হেতুকে তুমি যি জানা, তাক কোৱা।
[Job, ] you object to what God has done to you, but do you think that he will do what you want him to do? It is you who must choose [what you say to God], not I; so tell me what you are thinking about this.
“People who have good sense, those who are wise and who listen to what I say, will say to me,
‘Job is speaking ignorantly; what he says is nonsense.’
I think that Job should be taken to a court and (put on trial/judged), because he answers [us his friends] like wicked men would answer.
37 ৩৭ কিয়নো তেওঁ নিজৰ পাপত বিদ্ৰোহ লগ লগাইছে, তেওঁ আমাৰ মাজত হাত-তালি দিছে, আৰু ঈশ্বৰৰ বিৰুদ্ধে অনেক কথা কৈছে।
To add to the [other] sins that he has committed, he is rebelling [against God]; he shows us that he does not respect God [IDM], making long speeches [saying that God has punished him unjustly].”
