Job 8
1 Then Baldad the Sauchite answered, and said,
तब बिल्दाद शुहीले जवाफ दिए र भने,
2 How long will you speak these things, [how long shall] the breath of your mouth [be] abundant in words?
“तपाईं कहिलेसम्म यी कुरा भन्नुहुन्छ? कहिलेसम्म तपाईंको मुखका वचन शक्तिशाली बतास हुनेछन्?
3 Will the Lord be unjust when he judges; or will he that has made all things pervert justice?
के परमेश्वरले न्यायमा रोक लगाउनुहुन्छ र? के सर्वशक्तिमान्ले धार्मिकतामा रोक लगाउनुहुन्छ र?
4 If your sons have sinned before him, he has cast them away because of their transgression.
तपाईंका छोराछोरीले उहाँको विरुद्धमा पाप गरेका छन् । हामी यो जान्दछौं, किनकि उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई आफ्नै पापमा मर्न दिनुभयो ।
5 But be you early in prayer to the Lord Almighty.
तर मानौँ, तपाईंले परमेश्वरलाई बडो मेहनत गरेर खोज्नुभयो, अनि आफ्नो बिन्ती सर्वशक्तिमान्लाई चढाउनुभयो ।
6 If you are pure and true, he will listen to your supplication, and will restore to you the habitation of righteousness.
तपाईं शुद्ध र सोझो हुनुहुन्छ भने, उहाँले निश्चय पनि तपाईंको पक्ष लिनुहुन्छ, र तपाईंको उचित स्थानमा तपाईंलाई पुनर्स्थापित गर्नुहुन्छ ।
7 Though then your beginning should be small, yet your end should be unspeakably great.
तपाईंको सुरुआत् सानो भए तापनि, तपाईंको आखिरी अवस्था महान् हुन्छ ।
8 For ask of the former generation, and search diligently amongst the race of [our] fathers:
कृपया पहिलेका पुस्ताहरूलाई सोध्नुहोस्, र हाम्रा पुर्खाहरूले सिकेका कुरामा आफ्नो ध्यान लगाउनुहोस् ।
9 (for we are of yesterday, and know nothing; for our life upon the earth is a shadow: )
(हामी हिजो मात्र जन्मियौं र हामी केही जन्दैनौं, किनकि पृथ्वीमा हाम्रा दिनहरू छाया मात्र हो ।)
10 shall not these teach you, and report [to you], and bring out words from [their] heart?
के तिनले तपाईंलाई सिकाउने र भन्ने छैनन् र? के तिनले आफ्ना हृदयहरूबाट वचन बोल्ने छैनन्?
11 Does the rush flourish without water, or shall the flag grow up without moisture?
के दलदल नभएको ठाउँमा नर्कट उम्रन्छ? के पानीविना निगालाहरू बढ्छन्?
12 When it is yet on the root, and [though] it has not been cut down, does not any herb wither before it has received moisture?
ती अझै हरिया छँदै र नकाटकै बेलामा, अरू कुनै बिरुवाभन्दा पहिले नै ती सुक्छन् ।
13 Thus then shall be the end of all that forget the Lord: for the hope of the ungodly shall perish.
परमेश्वरलाई बिर्सनेहरू सबैका मार्गहरू पनि त्यस्तै हुन्छन् । ईश्वरहीनको आशा नष्ट हुन्छन् ।
14 For his house shall be without inhabitants, and his tent shall prove a spider's web.
उसको दृढता टुक्राटुक्रा हुनेछन्, र उसको भरोसा माकुरोको जालझैं कमजोर हुन्छ ।
15 If he should prop up his house, it shall not stand: and when he has taken hold of it, it shall not remain.
ऊ आफ्नो घरमा अडेल लग्छ, तर त्यसले उसलाई थाम्दैन । उसले त्यसमा समात्छ, तर यो अडिंदैन ।
16 For it is moist under the sun, and his branch shall come forth out of his dung-heap.
घामको मुनि त्यो हरियो हुन्छ, र त्यसका पालुवाहरू त्यसको सारा बगैँचामा फैलिन्छ ।
17 He lies down upon a gathering of stones, and shall live in the mist of flints.
त्यसका जराहरू ढुङ्गाको थुप्रो वरिपरि बेरिन्छन् । तिनले चट्टानहरूका बिचमा राम्रा ठाउँहरू खोज्छन् ।
18 If [God] should destroy [him], his place shall deny him. Hast you not seen such things,
तर यो व्यक्ति आफ्नो ठाउँ बाहिर नष्ट भयो भने, तब त्यो ठाउँले उसलाई इन्कार गर्नेछ र भन्नेछ, 'मैले तँलाई कहिल्यै देखिनँ ।'
19 that such is the overthrow of the ungodly? and out of the earth another shall grow.
हेर्नुहोस्, त्यस्तो व्यक्तिको व्यवहारको 'आनन्द' यही हो । त्यसको ठाउँमा उही माटोबाट अन्य बिरुवाहरू उम्रनेछन् ।
20 For the Lord will by no means reject the harmless man; but he will not receive any gift of the ungodly.
हेर्नुहोस्, परमेश्वरले निर्दोष मानिसलाई फाल्नुहुन्न, न त उहाँले दुष्ट काम गर्नेहरूका हातलाई मदत गर्नुहुन्छ ।
21 But he will fill with laughter the mouth of the sincere, and their lips with thanksgiving.
तर पनि उहाँले तपाईंको मुखमा हाँसो, र तपाईंको ओठमा आनन्दको सोरले भर्नुहुनेछ ।
22 But their adversaries shall clothe themselves with shame; and the habitation of the ungodly shall perish.
तपाईंलाई घृणा गर्नेहरू लाजले ढाकिनेछन् । दुष्टको पाल फेरि रहनेछैन ।”
