< Job 42 >

1 Then Job answered the LORD, and said,
तब अय्यूबले परमप्रभुलाई जवाफ दिए र यसो भने,
2 I know that thou canst do every [thing], and [that] no thought can be withheld from thee.
“तपाईंले सबै कुरा गर्न सक्‍नुहुन्छ भनी म जान्‍दछु, र तपाईंको कुनै पनि उद्देश्यलाई रोक्‍न सकिंदैन ।
3 Who [is] he that hideth counsel without knowledge? therefore have I uttered that which I understood not; things too wonderful for me, which I knew not.
तपाईंले सोध्‍नुभयो, 'ज्ञानविना योजनाहरू लुकाउने को हो?' वास्तवमा मैले यस्ता कुराहरू बोलेको छु, जुन मैले बुझिनँ, जुन बुझ्न मलाई अत्यन्तै गार्‍हो थियो, जसको बारेमा मलाई थाहा थिएन ।
4 Hear, I beseech thee, and I will speak: I will ask of thee, and declare thou to me.
तपाईंले मलाई भन्‍नुभयो, 'अब सुन्, र म बोल्नेछु । म तँलाई सोध्‍नेछु, र तैंले मलाई जवाफ दिनेछस् ।'
5 I have heard of thee by the hearing of the ear: but now my eye seeth thee.
तपाईंको विषयमा मेरा कानले मात्र मैले सुनेको थिएँ, तर अहिले मेरा आँखाले नै तपाईंलाई देखेका छन् ।
6 Wherefore I abhor [myself], and repent in dust and ashes.
त्यसैले म आफैलाई हीन ठान्‍छु । धूलो र खरानीमा बसेर म पश्‍चात्ताप गर्छु ।”
7 And it was [so], that after the LORD had spoken these words to Job, the LORD said to Eliphaz the Temanite, My wrath is kindled against thee, and against thy two friends: for ye have not spoken of me [the thing that is] right, as my servant Job [hath].
परमप्रभुले अय्यूबसित यी वचनहरू बोल्‍नुभएपछि, उहाँले एलीपज तेमानीलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “तँ र तेरा दुई जना मित्रको विरुद्धमा मेरो क्रोध दन्किएको छ, किनकि मेरो दास अय्यूबले झैं तिमीहरूले मेरो विषयमा जे ठिक छ, सो बोलेका छैनौ ।
8 Therefore take to you now seven bullocks and seven rams, and go to my servant Job, and offer for yourselves a burnt-offering; and my servant Job shall pray for you: for him will I accept: lest I deal with you [after your] folly, in that ye have not spoken of me [the thing which is] right, like my servant Job.
त्यसकारण अब आफ्‍नो निम्‍ति सातवटा साँढे र सातवटा भेडा लेओ, मेरो दास अय्यूबकहाँ जाओ, र आफ्नो लागि होमबलि चढाओ । मेरो दास अय्यूबले तिमीहरूका लागि प्रार्थना चढाउनेछ, र म त्यसको प्रार्थना ग्रहण गर्नेछु, जसको कारणले तिमीहरूको मूर्खताअनुरूपको व्यवहार मैले तिमीहरूसित गर्न नपरोस् । मेरो दास अय्यूबले भनेझैं तिमीहरूले मेरो विषयमा जे ठिक छ, सो बोलेका छैनौ ।”
9 So Eliphaz the Temanite and Bildad the Shuhite [and] Zophar the Naamathite went, and did according as the LORD commanded them: the LORD also accepted Job.
त्यसैले एलीपज तेमानी, बिल्दद शुही र सोपर नमाती गए, र परमप्रभुले तिनीहरूलाई आज्ञा दिनुभएझैं गरे, अनि परमप्रभुले अय्यूबको प्रार्थना ग्रहण गर्नुभयो ।
10 And the LORD turned the captivity of Job, when he prayed for his friends: also the LORD gave Job twice as much as he had before.
अय्यूबले आफ्ना मित्रहरूका निम्ति प्रार्थना गरेपछि, परमप्रभुले तिनको सुदिन पुनर्स्थापित गर्नुभयो । तिनीसित पहिले भएकोभन्दा परमप्रभुले तिनलाई दोब्बर दिनुभयो ।
11 Then came there to him all his brethren, and all his sisters, and all they that had been of his acquaintance before, and ate bread with him in his house: and they condoled with him, and comforted him over all the evil that the LORD had brought upon him: every man also gave him a piece of money, and every one an ear-ring of gold.
तब अय्यूबका सबै दाजु-भाइ, दिदी-बहिनी र तिनले पहिले चिनेका सबै जना तिनीकहाँ आए, र तिनको घरमा भोज गरे । परमप्रभुले तिनीमाथि ल्याउनुभएका सबै विपत्तिको निम्ति तिनीहरूले तिनलाई सहानुभूति र सान्त्वना प्रकट गरे । हरेकले अय्यूबलाई चाँदीको टुक्रा र सुनको औँठी दिए ।
12 So the LORD blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning: for he had fourteen thousand sheep, and six thousand camels, and a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand she asses.
परमप्रभुले अय्यूबको जीवनको अगिल्लो समयमा भन्दा पछिल्लो समयमा झन् धेरै आशिष् दिनुभयो । तिनका चौध हजार भेडा, छ हजार ऊँट, एक हजार हल गोरु र एक हजार गधैनी थिए ।
13 He had also seven sons, and three daughters.
तिनका सात छोरा र तिन छोरी पनि थिए ।
14 And he called the name of the first, Jemima; and the name of the second, Kezia; and the name of the third, Keren-happuch.
तिनले जेठीको नाउँ यमीमा, माहिलीको नाउँ कसीआ र कान्छीको नाउँ केरेन-हप्पूक राखे ।
15 And in all the land were no women found [so] fair as the daughters of Job: and their father gave them inheritance among their brethren.
सारा देशमा अय्यूबका छोरीहरूजत्तिकै सुन्दरी कुनै स्‍त्रीहरू पनि थिएनन् । तिनीहरूका पिताले तिनीहरूलाई आफ्‍ना दाजुभाइसरह नै पैतृक-अंश दिए ।
16 After this Job lived a hundred and forty years, and saw his sons, and his sons' sons, [even] four generations.
यसपछि अय्यूब थप १४० वर्षसम्म बाँचे । तिनले आफ्ना छोराहरू, नातिहरू र चार पुस्तासम्मका सन्तानहरूलाई देखे ।
17 So Job died, [being] old and full of days.
तब पुरा बुढेसकालमा दीर्घायू भएर अय्यूब मरे ।
