< Job 14 >
1 Man that is born of a woman is of few days, and full of trouble.
स्त्रीबाट जन्मेको मानिस थोरै दिन बाँच्छ, अनि दुखैदुखले भरिएको हुन्छ ।
2 He cometh forth like a flower, and is cut down: he fleeth also as a shadow, and continueth not.
ऊ फुलझैं जमिनबाट उम्रिन्छ र काटिन्छ । ऊ छायाझैं भाग्छ, र रहँदैन ।
3 And dost thou open thine eyes upon such an one, and bringest me into judgment with thee?
के तपाईंले यीमध्ये कुनैलाई हेर्नुहुन्छ? के तपाईंले मलाई आफूसँगै न्यायमा ल्याउनुहुन्छ?
4 Who can bring a clean thing out of an unclean? not one.
अशुद्ध कुराबाट कसले शुद्ध कुरा ल्याउन सक्छ र? कसैले सक्दैन ।
5 Seeing his days are determined, the number of his months is with thee, and thou hast appointed his bounds that he cannot pass;
मानिसको दिनहरू निर्धारित छन् । उसका महिनाहरूका सङ्ख्या तपाईंसितै छन् । तपाईंले उसका सिमाहरू तोक्नुभएको छ, जसलाई उसले नाघ्न सक्दैन ।
6 Look away from him, that he may rest, till he shall accomplish, as an hireling, his day.
ऊबाट आफ्नो दृष्टि हटाउनुहोस्, यसैले कि उसले विश्राम पाओस्, यसरी उसले सक्छ भने, ज्यालाको मानिस झैं आफ्नो दिनमा रमाउन सकोस् ।
7 For there is hope of a tree, if it be cut down, that it will sprout again, and that the tender branch thereof will not cease.
एउटा रुखको लागि आशा हुन सक्छ । त्यो काटियो भने, त्यो फेरि पलाउन सक्छ, जसको कारणले त्यसका कोमल पालुवा लोप हुँदैनन् ।
8 Though the root thereof wax old in the earth, and the stock thereof die in the ground;
त्यसको जरा जमिनभित्र बुढो हुन्छ, त्यसको फेद जमिनमा मर्छ,
9 Yet through the scent of water it will bud, and put forth boughs like a plant.
तापनि त्यसले पानीको ओस मात्र पायो भने, त्यो फेरि पलाउँछ, र रुखले झैं हाँगाहरू फिंजाउँछ ।
10 But man dieth, and wasteth away: yea, man giveth up the ghost, and where is he?
तर मानिसचाहिं मर्छ । त्यो कमजोर हुन्छ । वास्तवमा मानिसले सास फेर्न छोड्छ र फेरि ऊ कहाँ हुन्छ?
11 [As] the waters fail from the sea, and the river decayeth and drieth up;
जसरी एउटा तलाउबाट पानी लोप हुन्छ, र जसरी नदीको पानी घट्छ र सुक्छ,
12 So man lieth down and riseth not: till the heavens be no more, they shall not awake, nor be roused out of their sleep.
त्यसरी नै मानिसहरू ढल्किन्छन्, र फेरि उठ्दैनन् । आकाशहरू लोप नभएसम्म तिनीहरू ब्युँझने छैनन्, न त तिनीहरू आफ्ना निद्राबाट उठ्नेछन् ।
13 Oh that thou wouldest hide me in Sheol, that thou wouldest keep me secret, until thy wrath be past, that thou wouldest appoint me a set time, and remember me! (Sheol )
दुखबाट टाढा तपाईंले मलाई पातालमा लुकाउनुहुन्छ, र तपाईंको रिस नमरेसम्म तपाईंले मलाई गुप्तमा राख्नुहुन्छ, र त्यहाँ म रहने समय तपाईंले तोक्नुहुन्छ, र मलाई याद गर्नुहुन्छ । (Sheol )
14 If a man die, shall he live [again]? all the days of my warfare would I wait, till my release should come.
एक जना मानिस मर्यो भने, के ऊ फेरि बाँच्नेछ र? त्यसो हो भने, मेरो छुटकारा नआएसम्म, मेरा सबै दुखको समयमा म त्यहाँ पर्खेर बिताउन चाहान्छु ।
15 Thou shouldest call, and I would answer thee: thou wouldest have a desire to the work of thine hands.
तपाईंले मलाई बोलाउनुहुन्छ, र म जवाफ दिन्छु । आफ्नो हातको कामको लागि तपाईंको इच्छा हुन्छ ।
16 But now thou numberest my steps: dost thou not watch over my sin?
तपाईंले मेरा पाइला गन्नुहुन्छ, र वास्ता गर्नुहुन्छ । तपाईंले मेरो पापको लेखा राख्नुहुन्न ।
17 My transgression is sealed up in a bag, and thou fastenest up mine iniquity.
मेरो अपराध थैलोमा बन्द गरिन्छ । तपाईंले मेरो अधर्म ढाक्नुहुन्छ ।
18 And surely the mountain falling cometh to nought, and the rock is removed out of its place;
तर पहाडहरू खस्छन् र कतै पुग्दैनन्, चट्टानहरू आफ्नो ठाउँबाट हटेर जान्छन्,
19 The waters wear the stones; the overflowings thereof wash away the dust of the earth: and thou destroyest the hope of man.
नदीहरूले ढुङ्गाहरूलाई खियाउँछन्, तिनीहरूमा भएको बाढीले जमिनको धूलो बगाउँछन्। त्यसरी नै तपाईंले मानिसको आशालाई नाश गर्नुहुन्छ ।
20 Thou prevailest for ever against him, and he passeth; thou changest his countenance, and sendest him away.
तपाईंले सधैं उसलाई हराउनुहुन्छ, र ऊ मर्छ । तपाईंले उसको अनुहारको बद्लनुहुन्छ, र उसलाई मर्न दिनुहुन्छ ।
21 His sons come to honour, and he knoweth it not; and they are brought low, but he perceiveth it not of them.
उसका छोराहरूको आदर भयो कि भएन भनेर उसलाई जान्दैन । र तिनीहरू होच्याइएका छन् कि छैन् उसले त्यो देख्दैन ।
22 But his flesh upon him hath pain, and his soul within him mourneth.
उसले आफ्नो शरीरको दुखलाई अनुभव गर्छ, र उसले आफ्नै निम्ति शोक गर्छ ।
