< Job 5 >
1 Call out now; is there anyone who will answer you? To which of the holy ones will you turn?
अहिले बोलाउनुहोस् । तपाईंलाई जवाफ दिने कुनै व्यक्ति छ? पवित्र मानिसहरूमध्ये कुनतिर तपाईं फर्कनुहुनेछ?
2 For anger kills the foolish man; jealousy kills the silly one.
किनकि मूर्ख मानिसलाई रिसले मार्छ। सजिलै छलमा पर्नेलाई ईर्ष्याले मार्छ ।
3 I have seen a foolish person taking root, but suddenly I cursed his home.
मूर्ख व्यक्तिले जरा गाडेको मैले देखेको छु, तर मैले एक्कासि त्यसको घरलाई सराप दिएँ ।
4 His children are far from safety; they are crushed in the city gate. There is no one to rescue them.
त्यसका छोराछोरी बिल्कुलै सुरक्षित छैनन् । तिनीहरू सहरको मूल ढोकामा कुल्चिमिल्ची पारिएका छन् । तिनीहरूलाई छुटकारा दिने कोही छैन ।
5 The hungry eat up their harvest; they even take it from among the thorns. The thirsty pant for their wealth.
भोकाएकाहरूले आफ्नो फसल खान्छन् । तिनीहरूले त्यसलाई काँढाहरूका बिचबाट पनि बटुल्छन् । तिर्खाएकाहरूले आफ्नो धन-सम्पत्तिको तृष्णा गर्छन् ।
6 For difficulties do not come out from the soil; neither does trouble sprout from the ground.
किनकि कठिनाइ माटोबाट आउँदैन । न त भुइँबाट समस्या उम्रन्छ ।
7 Instead, mankind is born for trouble, just as sparks fly upward.
बरु, मानव-जाति कष्टकै लागि जन्मन्छन्, जसरी आगोको झिल्काहरू माथि उड्छन् ।
8 But as for me, I would turn to God himself; to him I would commit my cause—
तर मेरो बारेमा, स्वयम् परमेश्वरकहाँ नै म फर्कन्छु । उहाँमा नै म आफ्नो गुनासो समर्पित गर्छु—
9 he who does great and unsearchable things, marvelous things without number.
महान् अनि अगम्य कुराहरू गर्नुहुने, अनगिन्ती उदेकका कामहरू गर्नुहुने उहाँ नै हुनुहुन्छ ।
10 He gives rain on the earth, and sends water on the fields.
उहाँले पृथ्वीमा वृष्टि दिनुहुन्छ, र खेतबारीमा पानी पठाउनुहुन्छ ।
11 He does this in order to set up on high those who are low; to raise to safety those who mourn.
नम्रहरूलाई उच्च स्थानमा राख्नलाई अनि शोक गर्नेहरूलाई सुरक्षित उचाल्नलाई उहाँले यसो गर्नुहुन्छ ।
12 He breaks the plans of the crafty people, so that their hands cannot achieve success.
धूर्त मानिसहरूका हातले सफलता नपाओस् भनेर, उहाँले तिनीहरूका योजनाहरूलाई विफल तुल्याउनुहुन्छ ।
13 He traps wise people in their own crafty actions; the plans of twisted people are hurried to their end.
उहाँले बुद्धिमान् मानिसहरूलाई तिनीहरूका आफ्नै धूर्त कामहरूमा पासोमा पार्नुहुन्छ । टेडा मानिसहरूका योजनाहरू अन्त्यको लागि हतारिन्छन् ।
14 They encounter darkness in the daytime, and grope at noonday as if it were night.
तिनीहरूले दिउँसै अन्धकार भेट्टाउँछन्, अनि मध्यदिनमा पनि रातमा झैं छामेर हिंड्छन् ।
15 But he saves the poor person from the sword in their mouths and the needy person from the hand of mighty people.
तर उहाँले गरिबहरूलाई तिनीहरूको मुखमा भएको तरवारदेखि र खाँचोमा परेकालाई शक्तिशाली मानिसहरूको हातबाट बचाउनुहुन्छ ।
16 So the poor person has hope, and injustice shuts her own mouth.
त्यसैले गरिब मानिसको आशा छ, र अन्यायले त्यसको आफ्नै मुख बन्द गर्छ ।
17 See, blessed is the man whom God corrects; therefore, do not despise the chastening of the Almighty.
हेर, त्यो मानिस धन्यको हो, जसलाई परमेश्वरले सुधार्नुहुन्छ । त्यसकारण सर्वशक्तिमान्को ताडनालाई इन्कार नगर ।
18 For he wounds and then binds up; he wounds and then his hands heal.
किनकि उहाँले चोट पुर्याउनुहुन्छ, र पट्टी बाँध्नुहुन्छ । उहाँले चोट पुर्याउनुहुन्छ र आफ्नै हातले निको पार्नुहुन्छ ।
19 He will rescue you out of six troubles; indeed, in seven troubles, no evil will touch you.
उहाँले तपाईंलाई छवटा कष्टबाट छुटकारा दिनुहुनेछ । वास्तवमा सातौं कष्टमा पनि कुनै दुष्ट्याइँले तपाईंलाई छुँदैन ।
20 In famine he will ransom you from death, and in war from the hands of the sword.
अनिकालको समयमा मृत्युबाट मोल तिरेर, र युद्धमा तरवारको हातबाट उहाँले तपाईंलाई छुटाउनुहुनेछ ।
21 You will be hidden from the scourge of the tongue; and you will not be afraid of destruction when it comes.
झूट बोल्ने जिब्रोको कोर्राबाट तपाईंलाई लुकाइनेछ, र जब विनाश आउँछ, तब तपाईं त्यसबाट डराउनुहुनेछैन ।
22 You will laugh at destruction and famine, and you will not be afraid of beasts of the earth.
विनाश र अनिकाल देखेर तपाईं हास्नुहुनेछ, अनि पृथ्वीका जङ्गली जनावरहरूदेखि तपाईं डराउनुहुनेछैनौ ।
23 For you will have a covenant with the stones in your field, and the beasts of the field will be at peace with you.
किनकि तपाईंको खेतमा भएका ढुङ्गाहरूसित तपाईंले करार बाँध्नुहुनेछ, र वनका पशुहरू तपाईंसित मिलापमा रहनेछन् ।
24 You will know that your tent is in safety; you will visit your sheepfold and you will not miss anything.
तपाईंको पाल सुरक्षित छ भनी तपाईंले जान्नुहुनेछ । तपाईं आफ्नो भेडी-गोठ हेर्न जानुहुनेछ र एउटा पनि नहराएको तपाईंले पाउनुहुनेछैन ।
25 You will also know that your seed will be great, that your offspring will be like the grass on the ground.
तपाईंले यो जान्नुहुनेछ, तपाईंको सन्तान महान् हुनेछ, तपाईंका छोराछोरी जमिनको घाँसझैं हुनेछन् ।
26 You will come to your grave at a full age, like a stack of grain bundles that goes up at its time.
तपाईं आफ्नो चिहानमा पूरा बढो भएर आउनुहुनेछ । जसरी आफ्नो समयमा अन्नका मुट्ठाहरूको चाङ हुनेछ ।
27 See, we have examined this matter; it is like this; listen to it, and know it for yourself.”
हेर्नुहोस्, हामीले यस विषयलाई जाँच गरेका छौं । यो यस्तो छ । यसलाई सुन्नुहोस् र आफ्नै निम्ति यसलाई चिन्नुहोस् ।”
