Job 3
1 After this Job opened his mouth, and cursed his day,
यसपछि अय्यूबले आफ्नो मुख खोले, र आफू जन्मेको दिनलाई सरापे ।
2 saying,
तिनले भने,
3 Let the day perish in which I was born, and that night in which they said, Behold a boy!
“म जन्मेको दिन नष्ट होस्, त्यो रात जसले भन्यो, 'एउटा बालकको गर्भधारण भएको छ ।'
4 Let that night be darkness, and let not the Lord regard it from above, neither let light come upon it.
त्यो दिन अन्धकार होस् । परमेश्वरले माथिबाट त्यसलाई याद नगरून्, न त यसमा घाम लागोस् ।
5 But let darkness and the shadow of death seize it; let blackness come upon it;
अन्धकार र मृत्युको छायाले आफ्नो लागि यसलाई दाबी गरून् । यसमाथि बादल लागोस् । दिनलाई अँध्यारो बनाउने हरेक कुराले यसलाई साँच्चै त्रसित पारोस् ।
6 let that day and night be cursed, let darkness carry them away; let it not come into the days of the year, neither let it be numbered with the days of the months.
निस्पट्ट अँध्यारोले त्यो रातलाई समातोस् । वर्षका दिनहरूका बिचमा यो नरमाओस् । महिनाहरूको गन्तीमा यसको गणना नहोस् ।
7 But let that night be pain, and let not mirth come upon it, nor joy.
हेर, त्यो रात बाँझो होस् । यसमा कुनै हर्षको सोर नआओस् ।
8 But let him that curses that day curse it, [even] he that is ready to attack the great whale.
लिव्यातन्लाई कसरी ब्युँझाउने भनी जानेकाहरूले, त्यस दिनलाई सराप दिऊन् ।
9 Let the stars of that night be darkened; let it remain [dark], and not come into light; and let it not see the morning star arise:
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 gates of my mother's womb, for [so] it would have removed sorrow from my eyes.
किनभने यसले मेरी आमाको गर्भको ढोकालाई थुनेन, र किनभने यसले मेरा आँखाबाट कष्टलाई लुकाएन ।
11 For why died I not in the belly? and [why] did I not come forth from the womb and die immediately?
मेरी आमाको गर्भबाट बाहिर निस्कँदा म किन मरिनँ? मेरी आमाले मलाई जन्माउँदा मैले आफ्नो आत्मा किन त्यागिनँ?
12 and why did the knees support me? and why did I suck the breasts?
उनका घुँडाहरूले मलाई किन स्वागत गरे? मैले दूध चुस्नलाई उनका स्तनहरूले मलाई किन स्वीकार गरे?
13 Now I should have lain down and been quiet, I should have slept and been at rest,
किनकि अहिले म चुप लागेर बसिरहेको हुन्थें । म सुतेको हुन्थें, र विश्राममा हुन्थें,
14 with kings [and] councillors of the earth, who gloried in [their] swords;
पृथ्वीका राजाहरू र सल्लाहकारहरूका साथमा, जसले आफ्नै लागि चिहानहरू बनाए, जुन अहिले ध्वस्त छन् ।
15 or with rulers, whose gold was abundant, 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 [I should have been] as an untimely birth proceeding from his mother's womb, or as infants who never saw light.
अर्थात् सायद म तुहेर जन्मने थिएँ, कदापि उज्यालो नदेख्ने शिशुहरूझैं हुन्थें ।
17 There the ungodly have burnt out the fury of rage; there the wearied in body rest.
त्यहाँ दुष्टको अत्याचार सकिन्छ । त्यहाँ थाकितहरूले विश्राममा लिन्छन् ।
18 And the men of old time have together ceased to hear the exactor's voice.
त्यहाँ कैदीहरू सँगसँगै चैनमा हुन्छन् । तिनीहरूले कमाराको नाइकेको सोर सुन्नुपर्दैन ।
19 The small and great are there, and the servant that feared his lord.
त्यहाँ साना र ठुला दुवै थरिका मानिसहरू छन् । नोकर आफ्नो मालिकबाट स्वतन्त्र हुन्छ ।
20 For why is light given to those who are in bitterness, and life to those souls which are in griefs?
दुःखमा हुनेलाई किन ज्योति दिइन्छ? मनमा तितो हुनेलाई किन जीवन दिइन्छ?
21 who desire death, and obtain it not, digging [for it] as [for] treasures;
जसले मृत्यु नै नआई त्यसको प्रतीक्षा गर्छ, जसले गाड्धनभन्दा धेरै मृत्यको लागि खाडल खन्छ ।
22 and would be very joyful if they should gain it?
जसले चिहान फेला पार्दा ज्यादै रमाउँछ र खुसी हुन्छ, त्यसलाई ज्योति किन दिइन्छ?
23 Death [is] rest to [such] a man, for God has hedged him in.
जसको मार्ग लुकाइएको छ, र जुन मानिसलाई परमेश्वरले छेक्नुभएको छ, त्यस मानिसलाई ज्योति किन दिइन्छ?
24 For my groaning comes before my food, and I weep being beset with terror.
किनकि मैले खानुको साटो सुस्केरा हाल्छु । मेरो वेदनाको सोर पानीझैं पोखिन्छ ।
25 For the terror of which I meditated has come upon me, and that which I had feared has befallen me.
जुन कुरोदेखि म डराउँथेँ, त्यही मकहाँ आएको छ । म जेदेखि भयभीत हुन्थेँ, त्यही मकहाँ आएको छ ।
26 I was not at peace, nor quiet, nor had I rest; yet wrath came upon me.
म चैनमा छैनँ, म मौन छैनँ, र मलाई विश्राम छैन । बरु सङ्कष्ट आउँछ ।”
