< Job 16 >

1 And Job made answer and said,
तब अय्यूबले जवाफ दिए र भने,
2 Such things have frequently come to my ears: you are comforters who only give trouble.
“धेरै यस्ता कुराहरू मैले सुनेको छु । सान्‍वना दिने तपाईंहरू सबैले दुःख दिनुहुन्छ ।
3 May words which are like the wind be stopped? or what is troubling you to make answer to them?
के व्यर्थका शब्दहरू कहिल्यै अन्त्य हुन्‍छन् कि? तपाईंहरूलाई के भयो जसले गर्दा तपाईंहरू यसरी जवाफ दिनुहुन्छ?
4 It would not be hard for me to say such things if your souls were in my soul's place; joining words together against you, and shaking my head at you:
तपाईंहरू ठाउँमा हुनुहुन्‍थ्‍यो भने, तपाईंहरूले बोलेझैं म पनि बोल्‍न सक्‍थें, तपाईंहरूको विरुद्धमा शब्दहरू जम्मा गर्न र मिलाउन सक्थें, र गिल्ला गर्दै मेरो शिर हल्लाउन सक्थें ।
5 I might give you strength with my mouth, and not keep back the comfort of my lips.
मेरो मुखले तपाईंहरूलाई बलियो पार्थें, र मेरो ओठको बरबरले तपाईंहरूलाई राहत ल्याउँथें ।
6 If I say what is in my mind, my pain becomes no less: and if I keep quiet, how much of it goes from me?
मैले बोल्‍दा त मेरो शोक कम हुँदैन । मैले बोल्न छाडें भने मलाई कसरी मदत हुन्छ?
7 But now he has overcome me with weariness and fear, and I am in the grip of all my trouble.
तर हे परमेश्‍वर, तपाईंले मलाई थकित पार्नुभएको छ । तपाईंले मेरा सबै परिवारलाई सर्वनाश पार्नुभएको छ ।
8 It has come up as a witness against me, and the wasting of my flesh makes answer to my face.
तपाईंले मलाई सुक्खा पार्नुभएको छ, जसले मेरो विरुद्धमा साक्षी दिन्‍छ । मेरो शरीरको दुब्लोपन मेरो विरुद्धमा खडा हुन्छ, र यसले मेरो अनुहारको विरुद्धमा साक्षी दिन्छ ।
9 I am broken by his wrath, and his hate has gone after me; he has made his teeth sharp against me: my haters are looking on me with cruel eyes;
परमेश्‍वर क्रोधमा उहाँले मलाई टुक्रा पार्नुभएको, र मलाई सताउनुभएको छ । क्रोधमा उहाँले आफ्नो दाह्रा किट्नुहुन्छ । मेरो शत्रुले मलाई घुरेर हेर्नुहुन्छ ।
10 Their mouths are open wide against me; the blows of his bitter words are falling on my face; all of them come together in a mass against me.
मानिसहरूले मलाई हेर्दै मुख खोलेर टोलाएका छन् । निन्दाले भरिएर तिनीहरूले मलाई गालामा थप्‍पड हानेका छन् । तिनीहरू मेरो विरुद्धमा एकसाथ भेला भएका छन्।
11 God gives me over to the power of sinners, sending me violently into the hands of evil-doers.
परमेश्‍वरले मलाई ईश्‍वरहीन मानिसहरूका हातमा दिनुहुन्छ, र मलाई दुष्‍ट मानिसहरूका हातमा फाल्‍नुहुन्छ ।
12 I was in comfort, but I have been broken up by his hands; he has taken me by the neck, shaking me to bits; he has put me up as a mark for his arrows.
म चैनमा थिएँ, अनि उहाँले मलाई लुछ्नुभयो । वास्तवमा, उहाँले मलाई गलहत्त्‍याउनुभएको र टुक्रा-टुक्रा पार्नुभएको छ । उहाँले मलाई आफ्नो निसाना पनि बनाउनुभएको छ ।
13 His bowmen come round about me; their arrows go through my body without mercy; my life is drained out on the earth.
उहाँका धनुर्धारीहरूले मेरो चारैतिर घेरा हाल्‍छन् । परमेश्‍वरले मेरा मिर्गौला छेड्नुहुन्छ, र मलाई छोड्‍नुहुन्‍न । उहाँले मेरो पित्त भुइँमा पोख्‍नुहुन्छ ।
14 I am broken with wound after wound; he comes rushing on me like a man of war.
उहाँले बारम्बार मेरो भित्तामा हिर्काउनुहुन्छ । एक जना लडाकुले झैं उहाँले मलाई झम्‍टिनुहुन्छ ।
15 I have made haircloth the clothing of my skin, and my horn is rolled in the dust.
आफ्‍नो शरीर ढाक्‍नलाई मैले भाङ्ग्रा सिएको छु । मैले आफ्‍नो टाउकोलाई भुइँमा गाडेको छु ।
16 My face is red with weeping, and my eyes are becoming dark;
रुँदा-रुँदा मेरो अनुहार रातो भएको छ । मेरो आँखाको वरिपरि मृत्युको छाया छ,
17 Though my hands have done no violent acts, and my prayer is clean.
जबकि मेरा हातमा कुनै हिंसा छैन र मेरो प्रार्थना शुद्ध छ ।
18 O earth, let not my blood be covered, and let my cry have no resting-place!
ए पृथ्वी, मेरो रगतलाई नछोप । मेरो रोदनले विश्राम नपाओस् ।
19 Even now my witness is in heaven, and the supporter of my cause is on high.
अहिले पनि मेरो साक्षी स्वर्गमा हुनुहुन्छ । मलाई स्‍याबासी दिनुहुने उच्‍चमा हुनुहुन्छ ।
20 My friends make sport of me; to God my eyes are weeping,
मेरा मित्रहरूले मलाई खिसी गर्छन्, तर मेरो आँखाले परमेश्‍वरमा आँसु बगाउँछ ।
21 So that he may give decision for a man in his cause with God, and between a son of man and his neighbour.
मानिसले आफ्नो छिमेकीलाई गरेझैं, स्वर्गमा हुनुभएको त्यो साक्षीलाई यस मानिसको पक्षमा परमेश्‍वरसित बहस गरिदिन म बिन्‍ती गर्छु ।
22 For in a short time I will take the journey from which I will not come back.
किनकि जब केही वर्ष बितेर जान्‍छ, तब म त्यस्तो ठाउँमा जानेछु, जहाँबाट म फर्कनेछैनँ ।
