Job 3
1 After this opened Job his mouth, and cursed his day.
यसपछि अय्यूबले आफ्नो मुख खोले, र आफू जन्मेको दिनलाई सरापे ।
2 And Job spake, and said,
तिनले भने,
3 Let the day perish wherein I was born, and the night [in which] it was said, There is a man child conceived.
“म जन्मेको दिन नष्ट होस्, त्यो रात जसले भन्यो, 'एउटा बालकको गर्भधारण भएको छ ।'
4 Let that day be darkness; let not God regard it from above, neither let the light shine upon it.
त्यो दिन अन्धकार होस् । परमेश्वरले माथिबाट त्यसलाई याद नगरून्, न त यसमा घाम लागोस् ।
5 Let darkness and the shadow of death stain it; let a cloud dwell upon it; let the blackness of the day terrify it.
अन्धकार र मृत्युको छायाले आफ्नो लागि यसलाई दाबी गरून् । यसमाथि बादल लागोस् । दिनलाई अँध्यारो बनाउने हरेक कुराले यसलाई साँच्चै त्रसित पारोस् ।
6 As [for] that night, let darkness seize upon it; let it not be joined unto the days of the year, let it not come into the number of the months.
निस्पट्ट अँध्यारोले त्यो रातलाई समातोस् । वर्षका दिनहरूका बिचमा यो नरमाओस् । महिनाहरूको गन्तीमा यसको गणना नहोस् ।
7 Lo, let that night be solitary, let no joyful voice come therein.
हेर, त्यो रात बाँझो होस् । यसमा कुनै हर्षको सोर नआओस् ।
8 Let them curse it that curse the day, who are ready to raise up their mourning.
लिव्यातन्लाई कसरी ब्युँझाउने भनी जानेकाहरूले, त्यस दिनलाई सराप दिऊन् ।
9 Let the stars of the twilight thereof be dark; let it look for light, but [have] none; neither let it see the dawning of the day:
त्यो दिनको बिहानका ताराहरू अँध्यारो होऊन् । त्यो दिनले ज्योति खोजोस्, तर नपाओस्, न त यसले मिरमरेको प्रथम किरणलाई देख्न पाओस् ।
10 Because it shut not up the doors of my [mother’s] womb, nor hid sorrow from mine eyes.
किनभने यसले मेरी आमाको गर्भको ढोकालाई थुनेन, र किनभने यसले मेरा आँखाबाट कष्टलाई लुकाएन ।
11 Why died I not from the womb? [why] did I [not] give up the ghost when I came out of the belly?
मेरी आमाको गर्भबाट बाहिर निस्कँदा म किन मरिनँ? मेरी आमाले मलाई जन्माउँदा मैले आफ्नो आत्मा किन त्यागिनँ?
12 Why did the knees prevent me? or why the breasts that I should suck?
उनका घुँडाहरूले मलाई किन स्वागत गरे? मैले दूध चुस्नलाई उनका स्तनहरूले मलाई किन स्वीकार गरे?
13 For now should I have lain still and been quiet, I should have slept: then had I been at rest,
किनकि अहिले म चुप लागेर बसिरहेको हुन्थें । म सुतेको हुन्थें, र विश्राममा हुन्थें,
14 With kings and counsellors of the earth, which built desolate places for themselves;
पृथ्वीका राजाहरू र सल्लाहकारहरूका साथमा, जसले आफ्नै लागि चिहानहरू बनाए, जुन अहिले ध्वस्त छन् ।
15 Or with princes that had gold, who filled their houses with silver:
अर्थात् ती राजकुमारहरूसित म सुतिरहेको हुन्थें, जससित कुनै बेला सुन थियो, जसले आफ्ना घरहरूलाई चाँदीले भरेका थिए ।
16 Or as an hidden untimely birth I had not been; as infants [which] never saw light.
अर्थात् सायद म तुहेर जन्मने थिएँ, कदापि उज्यालो नदेख्ने शिशुहरूझैं हुन्थें ।
17 There the wicked cease [from] troubling; and there the weary be at rest.
त्यहाँ दुष्टको अत्याचार सकिन्छ । त्यहाँ थाकितहरूले विश्राममा लिन्छन् ।
18 [There] the prisoners rest together; they hear not the voice of the oppressor.
त्यहाँ कैदीहरू सँगसँगै चैनमा हुन्छन् । तिनीहरूले कमाराको नाइकेको सोर सुन्नुपर्दैन ।
19 The small and great are there; and the servant [is] free from his master.
त्यहाँ साना र ठुला दुवै थरिका मानिसहरू छन् । नोकर आफ्नो मालिकबाट स्वतन्त्र हुन्छ ।
20 Wherefore is light given to him that is in misery, and life unto the bitter [in] soul;
दुःखमा हुनेलाई किन ज्योति दिइन्छ? मनमा तितो हुनेलाई किन जीवन दिइन्छ?
21 Which long for death, but it [cometh] not; and dig for it more than for hid treasures;
जसले मृत्यु नै नआई त्यसको प्रतीक्षा गर्छ, जसले गाड्धनभन्दा धेरै मृत्यको लागि खाडल खन्छ ।
22 Which rejoice exceedingly, [and] are glad, when they can find the grave?
जसले चिहान फेला पार्दा ज्यादै रमाउँछ र खुसी हुन्छ, त्यसलाई ज्योति किन दिइन्छ?
23 [Why is light given] to a man whose way is hid, and whom God hath hedged in?
जसको मार्ग लुकाइएको छ, र जुन मानिसलाई परमेश्वरले छेक्नुभएको छ, त्यस मानिसलाई ज्योति किन दिइन्छ?
24 For my sighing cometh before I eat, and my roarings are poured out like the waters.
किनकि मैले खानुको साटो सुस्केरा हाल्छु । मेरो वेदनाको सोर पानीझैं पोखिन्छ ।
25 For the thing which I greatly feared is come upon me, and that which I was afraid of is come unto me.
जुन कुरोदेखि म डराउँथेँ, त्यही मकहाँ आएको छ । म जेदेखि भयभीत हुन्थेँ, त्यही मकहाँ आएको छ ।
26 I was not in safety, neither had I rest, neither was I quiet; yet trouble came.
म चैनमा छैनँ, म मौन छैनँ, र मलाई विश्राम छैन । बरु सङ्कष्ट आउँछ ।”
