< Job 32 >

1 So these three men ceased to answer Job, because he was righteous in his own eyes.
त्‍यसैले यी तिन जना मानिसले अय्यूबलाई जवाफ दिन छाडे किनभने आफ्‍नो दृष्‍टिमा तिनले आफूलाई धर्मी ठहराए ।
2 Then was kindled the wrath of Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite, of the family of Ram; against Job was his wrath kindled, because he justified himself rather than God.
त्यसपछि रामको परिवारको बुजी बारकेलका छोरा एलीहूलाई रिस उठ्यो । तिनलाई अय्यूबको विरुद्धमा रिस उठेको थियो, किनकि तिनले परमेश्‍वरभन्दा पनि आफैलाई धर्मी ठहराएका थिए ।
3 Also against his three friends was his wrath kindled, because they had found no answer, and yet had condemned Job.
तिन जना मित्रको विरुद्धमा पनि एलीहूलाई रिस उठ्यो किनकि तिनीहरूले अय्यूबलाई जवाफ दिन सकेका थिएनन्, र पनि तिनीहरूले अय्यूबलाई दोषी ठहराएका थिए ।
4 Now Elihu had waited to speak unto Job, because they were older than he.
अरू मानिसहरू एलीहूभन्दा उमेरमा पाका भएका हुनाले तिनले अय्यूबसित बोल्‍नलाई पर्खिरहेका थिए ।
5 And when Elihu saw that there was no answer in the mouth of these three men, his wrath was kindled.
तापनि यी तिन जना मानिसका मुखमा एलीहूले जवाफ नदेखेपछि तिनलाई रिस उठ्यो ।
6 And Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite answered and said: I am young, and ye are very old; wherefore I held back, and durst not declare you mine opinion.
तब बुजी बारकेलका छोरा एलीहू बोले र यसो भने, “म जवान छु, र तपाईंहरू निकै पाका हुनुहुन्छ । त्यसैले म चुप लागें, र मेरो विचार तपाईंहरूलाई भन्‍ने आँट गरिनँ ।
7 I said: 'Days should speak, and multitude of years should teach wisdom.'
मैले भनें, “बुढा-पाकाले बोल्नुपर्छ । धेरै वर्ष बिताएकाहरूले बुद्धि सिकाउनुपर्छ ।
8 But it is a spirit in man, and the breath of the Almighty, that giveth them understanding.
तर मानिसमा एउटा आत्मा हुन्छ । सर्वशक्तिमान्‌को सासले उसलाई सुझबुझ दिन्छ ।
9 It is not the great that are wise, nor the aged that discern judgment.
महान् मानिसहरू मात्र बुद्धिमान् हुँदैनन्, न त पाका मानिसहरूले मात्र न्यायलाई बुझ्छन् ।
10 Therefore I say: 'Hearken to me; I also will declare mine opinion.'
यसैकारण म तपाईंहरूलाई भन्दछु, 'मेरो कुरा सुन्‍नुहोस् । म पनि तपाईंहरूलाई आफ्‍नो ज्ञान भन्‍नेछु ।’
11 Behold, I waited for your words, I listened for your reasons, whilst ye searched out what to say.
हेर्नुहोस्, मैले तपाईंहरूका कुरा सुनें । तपाईंहरूले के भन्‍ने भनी विचार गरिरहँदा मैले तपाईंका बहसहरू सुनें ।
12 Yea, I attended unto you, and, behold, there was none that convinced Job, or that answered his words, among you.
वास्तवमा मैले ध्यान दिएर तपाईंहरूका कुरा सुनें, तर तपाईंहरूमध्ये एक जनाले पनि अय्यूबलाई विश्‍वस्त पार्न, अर्थात् तिनको वचनलाई जवाफ दिन सक्‍नुभएन ।
13 Beware lest ye say: 'We have found wisdom; God may vanquish him, not man!'
'हामीले बुद्धि भेट्टाएका छौं,' नभन्‍नलाई होसियार हुनुहोस् । अय्यूबलाई परमेश्‍वरले नै हराउनुपर्छ । मानिसले यसो गर्न सक्दैन ।
14 For he hath not directed his words against me; neither will I answer him with your speeches.
किनकि अय्यूबले आफ्ना वचनहरू मेरो विरुद्धमा बोलेका छैनन् । त्यसैले तपाईंहरूकै जवाफले म तिनलाई जवाफ दिनेछैनँ ।
15 They are amazed, they answer no more; words are departed from them.
यी तिन जना मानिसका बोली बन्‍द भएका छन् । तिनीहरूले फेरि अय्यूबलाई जवाई दिन सक्दैनन् । तिनीहरूसँगत बोल्‍नलाई एउटै शब्द पनि छैन ।
16 And shall I wait, because they speak not, because they stand still, and answer no more?
तिनीहरू बोल्‍दैनन्, तिनीहरू चूपचाप खडा छन्, अनि कुनै जवाफ दिंदैनन् भनेर के म पर्खिरहनू?
17 I also will answer my part, I also will declare mine opinion.
अहँ, म पनि आफ्‍नो तर्फबाट जवाफ दिनेछु । म पनि तिनीहरूलाई आफ्‍नो ज्ञान भन्‍नेछु ।
18 For I am full of words; the spirit within me constraineth me.
किनकि मसँग जवाफ धेरै छन् । मभित्र भएको आत्माले मलाई बाध्य पार्छ ।
19 Behold, mine inwards are as wine which hath no vent; like new wine-skins which are ready to burst.
मेरो छाती फुल्‍दै गरेको दाखमद्यझैं भएको छ जसको प्‍वाल छैन । नयाँ मशकझैं यो फुट्नलाई तयार छ ।
20 I will speak, that I may find relief; I will open my lips and answer.
म ताजा हुन सकूँ भनेर म बोल्नेछु । म आफ्‍नो ओठ खोल्नेछु, र बोल्नेछु ।
21 Let me not, I pray you, respect any man's person; neither will I give flattering titles unto any man.
म पक्षपात गर्नेछैनँ, न त कुनै मानिसलाई आदरको दर्जा नै दिनेछु ।
22 For I know not to give flattering titles; else would my Maker soon take me away.
किनकि त्‍यस्तो दर्जा कसरी दिने हो म जान्‍दिनँ । मैले त्यसो गरें भने, मेरा सृष्‍टिकर्ताले मलाई चाँडै लैजानुहुन्‍छ ।
