< Job 13 >

1 See, my eye has seen all this; my ear has heard and understood it.
हेर्नुहोस्, मेरो आँखाले यो सबै देखेका छन् । मेरो कानले यसलाई सुनेको छ, र बुझेको छ ।
2 What you know, the same I also know; I am not inferior to you.
तपाईंहरू जे जान्‍नुहुन्छ, म त्यो जान्दछु । म तपाईंहरूभन्दा कम छैनँ ।
3 However, I would rather speak with the Almighty; I wish to reason with God.
तापनि, बरु म सर्वशक्तिमान्‌सित बोल्‍छु । म परमेश्‍वरसित तर्क गर्ने इच्छा गर्छु ।
4 But you whitewash the truth with lies; you are all physicians of no value.
तर तपाईंहरू झुटले सत्यलाई लुकाउनुहुन्छ । तपाईंहरू सबै जना तुच्‍छ वैद्यहरू हुनुहुन्छ ।
5 Oh, that you would altogether hold your peace! That would be your wisdom.
तपाईंहरू सबैजना सँगै चूप लाग्‍नुहोस् । त्यो नै तपाईंहरूको बुद्धि हुन्‍छ ।
6 Hear now my own reasoning; listen to the pleading of my own lips.
अब मेरो आफ्नै तर्क सुन्‍नुहोस् । मेरो आफ्नै ओठको बिन्तीलाई सुन्‍नुहोस् ।
7 Will you speak unrighteously for God, and will you talk deceitfully for him?
परमेश्‍वरको लागि तपाईंहरू अधार्मिकताले बोल्नुहुनेछ र? अनि तपाईंहरू उहाँको लागि छलले कुरा गर्नुहुनेछ र?
8 Will you show him partiality? Will you argue the case for God?
उहाँलाई तपाईंहरू पक्षपात गर्नुहुनेछ र? परमेश्‍वरको लागि तपाईंहरू मुद्दाको बहस गर्नुहुनेछ र?
9 Will it be good for you when he searches you out? Could you deceive him as you might deceive men?
उहाँले तपाईंहरूको खोजी गर्नुहुँदा तपाईंहरूको भलो हुनेछ त? तपाईंहरूले मानिसहरूलाई छल गरेझैं उहाँलाई छल गर्न सक्‍नुहुन्छ र?
10 He would surely reprove you if in secret you showed partiality.
तपाईंहरूले गुप्‍तमा पक्षपात गर्नुभयो भने, उहाँले निश्‍चय नै तपाईंहरूलाई हप्काउनुहुन्‍छ ।
11 Will not his majesty terrify you, and the dread of him fall upon you?
उहाँको वैभवले तपाईंहरूलाई आतङ्कित पार्दैन र? उहाँको डर तपाईंहरूमाथि पर्दैन र?
12 Your memorable sayings are proverbs made of ashes; your defenses are defenses made of clay.
तपाईंहरूका सम्झनलायक भनाइहरू खरानीले बनेका उखानहरू हुन् । तपाईंहरूका सुरक्षा माटोले बनेका सुरक्षा हुन् ।
13 Hold your peace, let me alone, so that I may speak, let come what may on me.
तपाईंहरू चूप लाग्‍नुहोस्, यसैले कि म बोल्‍न सकूँ । मलाई जे हुनु छ होस् ।
14 I will take my own flesh in my teeth; I will take my life in my hands.
म आफ्नो जीवनलाई खतरामा हाल्नेछु । म आफ्‍नो जीवनलाई आफ्‍नो हातमा लिनेछु ।
15 See, if he kills me, I will have no hope left; nevertheless, I will defend my ways before him.
हेर्नुहोस्, उहाँले मलाई मार्नुहुन्‍छ भने, ममा कुनै आशा बाँकी रहनेछैन । तापनि उहाँको सामु म आफ्‍ना मार्गको बचाउ गर्नेछु ।
16 This will be the reason for my deliverance, for no godless person would come before him.
यो नै मेरो छुटकाराको कारण हुनेछ, किनकि ईश्‍वरहीन व्यक्ति उहाँको सामु आउँदैन ।
17 God, listen carefully to my speech; let my declaration come to your ears.
हे परमेश्‍वर, मेरो कुरा ध्‍यानले सुन्‍नुहोस् । मेरो घोषणा तपाईंका कानमा पुगोस् ।
18 See now, I have set my defense in order; I know that I am innocent.
हेर्नुहोस्, आफ्‍नो बचाउ मेलै गरेको छु । म निर्दोष छु भनी म जान्‍दछु ।
19 Who is the one who would argue against me in court? If you came to do so, and if I were proved wrong, then I would be silent and give up my life.
मेरो विरुद्धमा अदालतमा बहस कसले गर्छ? तपाईंहरू त्यसो गर्न आउनुभयो र म गलत प्रमाणित भएँ भने, तब म चुप रहन्‍छु, र आफ्‍नो जीवन दिन्‍छु ।
20 God, do only two things for me, and then I will not hide myself from your face:
हे परमेश्‍वर, मेरो निम्‍ति दुईवटा कुरा मात्र गर्नुहोस्, अनि म आफूलाई तपाईंको सामुबाट लुकाउनेछैनँ ।
21 withdraw your oppressive hand from me, and do not let your terrors make me afraid.
आफ्‍नो अत्याचारको हात मबाट निकाल्नुहोस्, अनि तपाईंका त्रासहरूले मलाई नतर्साउनुहोस् ।
22 Then call me, and I will answer; or let me speak to you, and you answer me.
तब मलाई बोलाउनुहोस्, र म जवाफ दिनेछु । वा तपाईंसित म बोल्‍नेछु र तपाईंले जवाफ दिनुहोस् ।
23 How many are my iniquities and sins? Let me know my transgression and my sin.
मेरा अधर्म र पाप कति धेरै छन्? मेरो अपराध र मेरो पापको जानकारी मलाई दिनुहोस् ।
24 Why do you hide your face from me and treat me like your enemy?
आफ्नो अनुहार मबाट तपाईं किन लुकाउनुहुन्‍छ, अनि मलाई आफ्नो शत्रुजस्‍तो व्यवहार किन गर्नुहुन्छ?
25 Will you persecute a driven leaf? Will you pursue dry stubble?
तपाईंले एउटा उडेको पातलाई सताउनुहुन्‍छ र? तपाईं सुकेका झारपातको पछि जानुहुन्‍छ र?
26 For you write down bitter things against me; you make me inherit the iniquities of my youth.
किनकि मेरो विरुद्धमा तपाईंले तिक्‍त कुराहरू लेख्‍नुहुन्छ । मेरो युवावस्थाका अधर्म प्राप्‍त गर्ने तपाईंले मलाई बनाउनुहुन्छ ।
27 You also put my feet in the stocks; you closely watch all my paths; you examine the ground where the soles of my feet have walked
तपाईंले मेरो खुट्टालाई ठिंगुरोमा हाल्नुहुन्छ । तपाईंले मेरा सबै मार्गलाई नजिकबाट हेर्नुहुन्छ । मेरो खुट्टाको पैतालाले टेकेको जमिनलाई तपाईंले जाँच्‍नुहुन्छ ।
28 although I am like a rotten thing that wastes away, like a garment that moths have eaten.
यद्यपि म खेर जाने सडेगलेको कुराजस्‍तै, किराहरूले खाएको एउटा वस्‍त्रजस्‍तै छु ।
