Job 17
1 My spirit is crushed; my life is extinguished; the grave is ready for me.
मेरो आत्मा नाश पारिएको छ, र मेरो आयु सकिएको छ । चिहान मेरो लागि तयार छ ।
2 Mockers surround me. I see how bitterly they ridicule me.
निश्चय नै गिल्ला गर्नेहरू मसितै छन् । मेरो आँखाले सधैं तिनीहरूको रिसलाई हेर्नुपर्छ ।
3 God, you need to put down a pledge for me with yourself, for who else will be my guarantor?
मलाई धरौटी दिनुहोस् । तपाईं आफै मेरो जमानी हुनुहोस् । मलाई मदत गर्नलाई अरू को नै छ र?
4 You have closed their minds to understanding, so do not let them win!
किनकि हे परमेश्वर, तपाईंले तिनीहरूका हृदयको समझलाई बन्द गर्नुभएको छ । त्यसकारण तपाईंले तिनीहरूलाई मभन्दा माथि उचाल्नुहुन्न ।
5 They betray friends to gain benefit for themselves and their children suffer for it.
इनामको लागि जसले आफ्नो मित्रहरूको बदनामी गर्छ, त्यसका छोराछोरीका आँखा कमजोर हुनेछन् ।
6 He has made me a proverb of ridicule among the people; they spit in my face.
तर उहाँले मलाई मानिसहरूको उखान बनाउनुभएको छ । तिनीहरूले मेरो मुखैमा थुक्छन् ।
7 My eyes are worn out from crying and my body is a shadow of its former self.
शोकको कारण मेरो आँखा पनि धमिलो भएको छ । मेरो शरीरका सम्पूर्ण भाग छायाजत्तिकै सुकेका छन् ।
8 People who think they are good are shocked to see me. Those who are innocent are troubled by the godless.
यसले सोझा मानिसहरूलाई अलमलमा पार्नेछन् । निर्दोष मानिसले आफैलाई ईश्वरहीन मानिसहरूको विरुद्धमा सुर्याउनेछ ।
9 Those who are right keep going, and those whose hands are clean grow stronger and stronger.
धर्मी मानिस आफ्नो बाटोमा हिंड्नेछ । शुद्ध हात भएकोचाहिं बलियो हुँदै जानेछ ।
10 Why don't you come back and repeat again what you've been saying?—yet I still won't find a wise man among you!
तर तिमीहरू सबैले चाहिं फेरि कोसिस गर । तिमीहरूका बिचमा बुद्धिमान् मानिस मैले पाउनेछैनँ ।
11 My life is over. My plans are gone. My heart is broken.
मेरा दिन बितिसके । मेरा योजनाहरू चकनाचूर भए, अनि मेरो हृदयको इच्छा पनि त्यस्तै भयो ।
12 They turn night into day, and say that daylight is close to darkness.
यी मानिसहरू, यी गिल्ला गर्नेले रातलाई दिनमा बद्लन्छन् । उज्यालो अँध्यारको नजिकै छ ।
मैले आशा गरेको घर पाताल मात्र हो भने, र अन्धकारमा मेरो ओछ्यान मैले बनाएको छु भने, (Sheol h7585)
14 Should I call the grave my father, and the maggot my mother or my sister?
र मैले खाडललाई, 'तँ मेरो बुबा हो,' अनि किरालाई 'तँ मेरी आमा वा बहिनी' हो भनेको छु भने,
15 So then where is my hope? Can anyone see any hope for me?
तब मेरो आशा खोइ त? कसले मेरो निम्ति कुनै आशा देख्न सक्छ र?
