ইয়োবের বিবরণ 21
But Job answered and said,
Hear diligently my speech, and let this be your consolations.
Suffer me that I may speak; and after that I have spoken, mock on.
As for me, is my complaint to man? and if it were so, why should not my spirit be troubled?
Mark me, and be astonished, and lay your hand upon your mouth.
Even when I remember I am afraid, and trembling takes hold on my flesh.
Wherefore do the wicked live, become old, yea, are mighty in power?
8 ৮ তাদের বংশধাররা তাদের চোখের সামনে তাদের সঙ্গে প্রতিষ্ঠিত হচ্ছে এবং তাদের সন্তানসন্ততিরা তাদের চোখের সামনে প্রতিষ্ঠিত হচ্ছে।
Their seed is established in their sight with them, and their offspring before their eyes.
Their houses are safe from fear, neither is the rod of God upon them.
10 ১০ তাদের ষাঁড় বংশ বৃদ্ধি করে; তা এটা করতে ব্যর্থ হয় না; তাদের গরু বাচ্চা জন্ম দেয় এবং গাভীন তার বাছুর হারায় না।
Their bull genders, and fails not; their cow calves, and casts not her calf.
They send forth their little ones like a flock, and their children dance.
They take the timbrel and harp, and rejoice at the sound of the organ.
13 ১৩ তারা সৌভাগ্যে তাদের জীবন যাপন করে এবং তারা নিঃশব্দে (শান্তিপুর্বক) পাতালে নেমে যায়। (Sheol h7585)
They spend their days in wealth, and in a moment go down to the grave. (Sheol h7585)
Therefore they say unto God, Depart from us; for we desire not the knowledge of your ways.
15 ১৫ সর্বশক্তিমান কে যে আমাদের তাঁর উপাসনা করা উচিত? যদি আমরা তাঁর কাছে প্রার্থনা করি তাহলে আমাদের কি লাভ হবে?’
What is the Almighty, that we should serve him? and what profit should we have, if we pray unto him?
Lo, their good is not in their hand: the counsel of the wicked is far from me.
17 ১৭ কতবার পাপীদের প্রদীপ নেভান হয় অথবা কতবার যে তাদের ওপর বিপদ আসে? কতবার এটা ঘটেছে যে ঈশ্বর তাঁর ক্রোধে তাদের কষ্ট ভাগ করেছেন?
How often is the candle of the wicked put out! and how often comes their destruction upon them! God distributes sorrows in his anger.
They are as stubble before the wind, and as chaff that the storm carries away.
19 ১৯ তোমরা বল, ‘ঈশ্বর এক জনের অপরাধের দায় তার সন্তানদের জন্য রাখেছেন,’ তাকে নিজেকেই এটা ভোগ করতে দাও, যাতে সে জানতে পারে তার অপরাধ।
God lays up his iniquity for his children: he rewards him, and he shall know it.
His eyes shall see his destruction, and he shall drink of the wrath of the Almighty.
For what pleasure has he in his house after him, when the number of his months is cut off in the midst?
Shall any teach God knowledge? seeing he judges those that are high.
One dies in his full strength, being wholly at ease and quiet.
His breasts are full of milk, and his bones are moistened with marrow.
And another dies in the bitterness of his soul, and never eats with pleasure.
They shall lie down alike in the dust, and the worms shall cover them.
Behold, I know your thoughts, and the devices which all of you wrongfully imagine against me.
For all of you say, Where is the house of the prince? and where are the dwelling places of the wicked?
Have all of you not asked them that go by the way? and do all of you not know their tokens,
That the wicked is reserved to the day of destruction? they shall be brought forth to the day of wrath.
Who shall declare his way to his face? and who shall repay him what he has done?
Yet shall he be brought to the grave, and shall remain in the tomb.
33 ৩৩ উপত্যকার মাটি তার কাছে মিষ্টি লাগবে; সমস্ত লোক তাকে অনুসরণ করবে, তার আগে অসংখ্য মানুষ যেমন সেখানে ছিল।
The clods of the valley shall be sweet unto him, and every man shall draw after him, as there are innumerable before him.
34 ৩৪ নিরর্থক কোথায় তোমরা কেমন করে আমায় সান্ত্বনা দেবে, যেহেতু তোমাদের উত্তরে কিছুই নেই কিন্তু মিথ্যা রয়েছে?”
How then comfort all of you me in vain, seeing in your answers there remains falsehood?
