< Job 2 >

1 And it was the day and they came [the] sons of God to present themselves on Yahweh and he came also the adversary in midst of them to present himself on Yahweh.
तब अर्को दिनमा परमेश्‍वरका छोराहरूले आफैलाई परमप्रभुको सामु उपस्थित गराउनलाई आए । शैतान पनि परमप्रभुको सामु आफैलाई उपस्थित गराउन तिनीहरूसँगै आयो ।
2 And he said Yahweh to the adversary where? from this are you coming and he answered the adversary Yahweh and he said from roving about on the earth and from going about on it.
परमप्रभुले शैतानलाई सोध्‍नुभयो, “तँ कहाँबाट आइस्?” शैतानले परमप्रभुलाई जवाफ दियो र भन्‍यो, “पृथ्वीमा घुमेर, त्‍यसमा यता र उता गएर आएको हुँ ।”
3 And he said Yahweh to the adversary ¿ have you set heart your to servant my Job for there not [is] like him on the earth a man blameless and upright fearing God and [who] turns aside from evil and still he [is] keeping hold on integrity his and you incited me against him to ruin him without cause.
परमप्रभुले त्यसलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “के तैंले मेरो दास अय्यूबलाई विचार गरेको छस्? किनकि पृथ्वीमा त्योजस्तो दोषरहित र सोझो मानिस कोही छैन जो परमेश्‍वरको भय मान्छ र खराबीबाट अलग बस्छ । विनाकारण त्यसलाई नाश गर्न त्यसको विरुद्धमा तैंले मलाई भ्रममा पारेको भए तापनि त्‍यसले अझै आफ्नो निष्ठामा कायम राखेको छ ।”
4 And he answered the adversary Yahweh and he said skin for skin and all that [belongs] to the man he will give for life his.
शैतानले परमप्रभुलाई जवाफ दियो र भन्‍यो, “वस्‍तवमा नै छालाको साटो छाला हुन्‍छ । एक जना मानिसले आफ्नो ज्यानको लागि आफूसित भएका सबै थोक दिन्छ ।
5 But stretch out please hand your and touch bone his and flesh his if not to face your he will bless you.
तर अब आफ्नो हात पसार्नुहोस् र तिनका हड्‍डी र शरीरलाई छुनुहोस्, अनि हेर्नुहोस्, कतै तिनले तपाईंको मुखैमा तपाईंलाई सराप्‍ने त छैनन् ।”
6 And he said Yahweh to the adversary there he [is] in hand your surely life his preserve.
परमप्रभुले शैतानलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “हेर्, त्यो तेरै हातमा छ । त्यसको जीवन मात्र चाहिं तैंले छोड्‍नैपर्छ ।”
7 And he went out the adversary from with [the] presence of Yahweh and he struck Job with boil[s] bad from [the] sole of foot his (and to *Q(K)*) scalp his.
तब शैतान परमप्रभुको उपस्थितिबाट तुरुन्‍तै गयो । त्यसले अय्यूबलाई तिनको पाउको कुर्कुच्‍चादेखि तिनको शिरसम्म पीडादायी खटिराले प्रहार गर्‍यो ।
8 And he took for himself a potsherd to scrape himself with it and he [was] sitting in [the] midst the ash[es].
आफूलाई कन्याउन अय्यूबले फुटेको भाँडोको एक टुक्रा खपटा लिए, र तिनी खरानीको बिचमा बसे ।
9 And she said to him wife his [are] still? you keeping hold on integrity your bless God and die.
तब तिनकी पत्‍नीले तिनलाई भनिन्, “के तपाईं अझै पनि आफ्नो निष्ठामा रहनुहुन्छ? परमेश्‍वरलाई सराप्‍नुहोस् र मर्नुहोस् ।”
10 And he said to her as speaks one of the foolish women you are speaking also the good will we accept? from with God and the evil not will we accept? in all this not he sinned Job with lips his.
तर तिनले उनलाई भने, “एक जना मूर्ख स्‍त्रीले बात गरेझैं तिमी बात गर्छ्‍यौ । के हामीले परमेश्‍वरबाट असल कुराचाहिं ग्रहण गर्नू अनि खराब कुराचाहिं ग्रहण नगर्नू?” यी सबै कुरामा अय्यूबले आफ्नो मुखले पाप गरेनन् ।
11 And they heard [the] three - [the] friends of Job all the evil this that it had come on him and they came each one from own place his Eliphaz the Temanite and Bildad the Shuhite and Zophar the Naamathite and they met by appointment together to come to show sympathy to him and to comfort him.
जब अय्यूबका तिन जना मित्रले तिनीमाथि आइपरेका यी सबै खराबीको बारेमा सुने, तब तिनीहरू हरेक आ-आफ्नो ठाउँबाट निस्केर आए, अर्थात् एलीपज तेमानी, बिल्दद शुही र सोपर नमाती । तिनीसँगै शोक गर्न र तिनलाई सान्त्वना दिन तिनीहरूले समय निकाले ।
12 And they lifted up eyes their from a distance and not they recognized him and they lifted up voice their and they wept and they tore each one robe his and they sprinkled dust on heads their the heavens towards.
जब तिनीहरूले टाढैबाट आँखा उठाएर हेरे, तब तिनीहरूले उनलाई चिनेनन् । तिनीहरूले आफ्‍ना सोर उचालेर कराए र रोए । हरेकले आफ्नो लुगा च्याते, धूलो हावामा फाले र आ-आफ्ना शिरमा हाले ।
13 And they sat with him to the ground seven days and seven nights and not [anyone was] speaking to him a word for they saw that it was great the pain exceedingly.
तब तिनीहरू सात दिन र सात रात तिनीसँगै भुइँमा बसे । कसैले तिनलाई एउटै शब्द पनि बोलेन, किनकि तिनको शोक अत्यन्तै ठुलो भएको तिनीहरूले देखे ।
