< Job 33 >

1 Hear therefore, O Job, my speeches, and hearken to all my words.
त्यसैले अब, हे अय्यूब, मेरो कुरा सुन्‍न म तपाईंसित बिन्ती गर्छु, मेरा सबै शब्‍दहरू सुन्‍नुहोस् ।
2 Behold now I have opened my mouth, let my tongue speak within my jaws.
हेर्नुहोस्, अब मैले आफ्‍नो मुख खोलेको छु । मेरो जिब्रोले मेरो मुखमा बोलेको छ ।
3 My words are from my upright heart, and my lips shall speak a pure sentence.
मेरा वचनहरू मेरो हृदयको सोझोपनबाट आउँछन् । मेरो ओठले शुद्ध ज्ञान बोल्‍छ ।
4 The spirit of God made me, and the breath of the Almighty gave me life.
परमेश्‍वरका पवित्र आत्माले मलाई बनाउनुभएको छ । सर्वशक्तिमान्‌को सासले मलाई जीवन दिएको छ ।
5 If thou canst, answer me, and stand up against my face.
तपाईं सक्‍नुहुन्छ भने मलाई जवाफ दिनुहोस् । आफ्‍ना बहसहरू मेरो सामु क्रमैसित राख्‍नुहोस्, र खडा हुनुहोस् ।
6 Behold God hath made me as well as thee, and of the same clay I also was formed.
हेर्नुहोस्, परमेश्‍वरको दृष्‍टिमा तपाईं जस्तो हुनुहुन्‍छ म पनि त्‍यस्‍तै हुँ । म पनि माटैबाट रचना गरिएको हुँ ।
7 But yet let not my wonder terrify thee, and let not my eloquence be burdensome to thee.
हेर्नुहोस्, मेरो डरले तपाईंलाई त्रसित नपारोस्, न त मेरो बोझ तपाईंलाई गह्रौं होस् ।
8 Now thou has said in my hearing, and I have heard the voice of thy words:
तपाईंले निश्‍चय पनि मैले सुन्‍ने गरी बोल्नुभएको छ । तपाईंका वचनहरूका आवाजले यसो भनेको मैले सुनेको छु,
9 I am clean, and without sin: I am unspotted, and there is no iniquity in me.
'म शुद्ध र अपराधरहित छु । म निर्दोष छु, र ममा कुनै पाप छैन ।
10 Because he hath found complaints against me, therefore he hath counted me for his enemy.
परमेश्‍वरले मलाई आक्रमण गर्ने मौकाहरू खोज्‍नुहुन्‍छ । उहाँले मलाई आफ्नो शत्रु ठान्‍नुहुन्छ ।
11 He hath put my feet in the stocks, he hath observed all my paths.
उहाँले मेरो खुट्टा ठिंगुरोमा हाल्नुहुन्छ । उहाँले मेरा सबै मार्ग नियालेर हेर्नुहुन्छ ।'
12 Now this is the thing in which thou art not justified: I will answer thee, that God is greater than man.
हेर्नुहोस्, यो कुरोमा तपाईं ठिक हुनुहुन्‍न— म तपाईंलाई जवाफ दिन्छु, किनकि परमेश्‍वर मानिसभन्दा महान् हुनुहुन्छ ।
13 Dost thou strive against him, because he hath not answered thee to all words?
उहाँको विरुद्धमा तपाईं किन सङ्घर्ष गर्नुहुन्छ? उहाँले त आफ्ना कुनै पनि कामको लेखा दिनुपर्दैन ।
14 God speaketh once, and repeateth not the selfsame thing the second time.
परमेश्‍वरले एक पटक, दुई पटक बोल्नुहुन्छ, तापनि मानिसले त्‍यसको ख्याल गर्दैन ।
15 By a dream in a vision by night, when deep sleep falleth upon men, and they are sleeping in their beds:
राती सपनामा, दर्शनमा, मानिसहरू मस्त निद्रामा पर्दा, ओछ्यानमा सुतेको समयमा,
16 Then he openeth the ears of men, and teaching instructeth them in what they are to learn.
तब परमेश्‍वरले मानिसहरूका कान खोल्‍नुहुन्छ, र तिनीहरूलाई चेतावनीहरूले तर्साउनुहुन्छ,
17 That he may withdraw a man from the things he is doing, and may deliver him from pride.
मानिसका पापी उद्देश्यहरूबाट उसलाई फर्काएर ल्याउनलाई, र अहङ्कारलाई ऊबाट टाढा राख्‍नलाई ।
18 Rescuing his soul from corruption: and his life from passing to the sword.
परमेश्‍वरले मानिसको जीवनलाई खाडल पर्नबाट, उसको जीवनलाई मृत्युमा जानबाट बचाउनुहुन्छ ।
19 He rebuketh also by sorrow in the bed, and he maketh all his bones to wither.
मानिसलाई ओछ्यानमा हुने पीडा, उसका हड्‍डीहरूमा निरन्तर हुने वेदनाद्वारा पनि उसलाई दण्ड दिइन्छ,
20 Bread becometh abominable to him in his life, and to his soul the meat which before he desired.
जसको कारणले उसको जीवनले खानेकुरालाई घृणा गर्छ, र उसको प्राणले मिठो भोजनलाई घृणा गर्छ ।
21 His flesh shall be consumed away, and his bones that were covered shall be made bare.
उसको शरीरको मासु नदेखियोस् भनेर त्यो नष्‍ट भएको हुन्छ । पहिले नदेखिने उसका हाडहरू लौरोझैं देखिन्छन् ।
22 His soul hath drawn near to corruption, and his life to the destroyers.
वास्तवमा उसको प्राण मृत्‍युको खाडल नजिक, उसको जीवन उसलाई नष्‍ट गर्न चाहनेहरूकहाँ पुग्छ ।
23 If there shall be an angel speaking for him, one among thousands, to declare man’s uprightness,
तर के गर्नु ठिक हुन्‍छ भनेर उसलाई देखाउन, उसको निम्‍ति मध्‍यस्‍थकर्ता हुनलाई एउटा स्‍वर्गदूत छन्, हजारौँ स्वर्गदूतहरूका बिचबाट एउटा यस्तो मध्यस्थकर्ता छन्,
24 He shall have mercy on him, and shall say: Deliver him, that he may not go down to corruption: I have found wherein I may be merciful to him.
र त्यो स्वर्गदूत ऊप्रति दयालु हुन्‍छन् र परमेश्‍वरलाई यसो भन्‍छन् भने, 'य स व्यक्तिलाई मृत्‍युको खाडल जानबाट बचाउनुहोस् । उसलाई छुटकारा दिने मोल म तिर्नेछु,'
25 His flesh is consumed with punishment, let him return to the days of his youth.
तब उसको मासु बच्‍चाको भन्दा कलिलो हुन्छ । उसले फेरि आफ्नो युवावस्थाको ताकत पाउनेछ ।
26 He shall pray to God, and he will be gracious to him: and he shall see his face with joy, and he will render to man his justice.
उसले परमेश्‍वरलाई प्रार्थना चढाउनेछ, र परमेश्‍वर ऊप्रति दयालु बन्‍नुहुनेछ, ताकि उसले आनन्दले परमेश्‍वरको मुहार हेर्छ । परमेश्‍वरले त्यो व्यक्तिलाई विजय दिनुहुन्‍छ ।
27 He shall look upon men, and shall say: I have sinned, and indeed I have offended, and I have not received what I have deserved.
तब त्यो व्यक्तिले अरू मानिसहरूको सामु गाउनेछ र यसो भन्‍नेछ, 'मैले पाप गरें, र ठिक कुरालाई बङ्ग्याएँ, तर मेरो पापको दण्ड दिइएन ।
28 He hath delivered his soul from going into destruction, that it may live and see the light.
परमेश्‍वरले मेरो प्राणलाई मृत्‍युको खाडलमा जानबाट छुटकारा दिनुभएको छ । मेरो जीवनले निरन्‍तर ज्योति देख्‍नेछ ।'
29 Behold, all these things God worketh three times within every one.
परमेश्‍वरले एक जना व्यक्तिसित यी सबै कुरा, दुई पटक वा तिन पटक पनि गर्नुहुन्छ,
30 That he may withdraw their souls from corruption, and enlighten them with the light of the living.
उसको प्राणलाई मृत्‍युको खाडलबाट फर्काउनलाई, जसले गर्दा जीवनको ज्योतिले उसले आफूलाई चम्काउन सकोस् ।
31 Attend, Job, and hearken to me: and hold thy peace, whilst I speak.
हे अय्यूब, ध्यान दिनुहोस्, र मेरो कुरा सुन्‍नुहोस् । चुप लाग्‍नुहोस्, र म बोल्नेछु ।
32 But if thou hast any thing to say, answer me, speak: for I would have thee to appear just.
तपाईंसित भन्‍नुपर्ने कुनै कुरा छ भने मलाई जवाफ दिनुहोस् । बोल्नुहोस्, किनकि तपाईं ठिक हुनुहुन्छ भनी म प्रमाणित गर्न चाहान्‍छु ।
33 And if thou have not, hear me: hold thy peace, and I will teach thee wisdom.
होइन भने, मेरो कुरा सुन्‍नुहोस् । चुप लाग्‍नुहोस्, र म तपाईंलाई बुद्धिका कुरा सिकाउनेछु ।”
