अय्यूब 15
Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered and said,
“Should a wise man answer with useless knowledge and fill himself with the east wind?
Should he reason with unprofitable talk or with speeches with which he can do no good?
Indeed, you diminish respect for God; you obstruct devotion to him,
for your iniquity teaches your mouth; you choose to have the tongue of a crafty man.
6 ६ मैं तो नहीं परन्तु तेरा मुँह ही तुझे दोषी ठहराता है; और तेरे ही वचन तेरे विरुद्ध साक्षी देते हैं।
Your own mouth condemns you, not mine; indeed, your own lips testify against you.
Are you the first man that was born? Were you brought into existence before the hills?
Have you heard the secret knowledge of God? Do you limit wisdom to yourself?
What do you know that we do not know? What do you understand that is not also in us?
With us are both the gray-headed and the very aged men who are much older than your father.
11 ११ परमेश्वर की शान्तिदायक बातें, और जो वचन तेरे लिये कोमल हैं, क्या ये तेरी दृष्टि में तुच्छ हैं?
Are the consolations of God too small for you, the words that are gentle toward you?
Why does your heart carry you away? Why do your eyes flash,
so that you turn your spirit against God and bring out such words from your mouth?
What is man that he should be clean? What is he who is born of a woman that he should be righteous?
See, God puts no trust even in his holy ones; indeed, the heavens are not clean in his sight;
how much less clean is one who is abominable and corrupt, a man who drinks iniquity like water!
I will show you; listen to me; I will announce to you the things I have seen,
the things that wise men have passed down from their fathers, the things that their ancestors did not hide.
These were their ancestors, to whom alone the land was given, and among whom no stranger ever passed.
The wicked man twists in pain all his days, the number of years that are laid up for the oppressor to suffer.
A sound of terrors is in his ears; while he is in prosperity, the destroyer will come upon him.
He does not think that he will return out of darkness; the sword waits for him.
23 २३ वह रोटी के लिये मारा-मारा फिरता है, कि कहाँ मिलेगी? उसे निश्चय रहता है, कि अंधकार का दिन मेरे पास ही है।
He goes to various places for bread, saying, 'Where is it?' He knows that the day of darkness is at hand.
24 २४ संकट और दुर्घटना से उसको डर लगता रहता है, ऐसे राजा के समान जो युद्ध के लिये तैयार हो, वे उस पर प्रबल होते हैं।
Distress and anguish make him afraid; they prevail against him, as a king ready for battle.
25 २५ क्योंकि उसने तो परमेश्वर के विरुद्ध हाथ बढ़ाया है, और सर्वशक्तिमान के विरुद्ध वह ताल ठोंकता है,
Because he has reached out with his hand against God and has behaved proudly against the Almighty,
this wicked man runs at God with a stiff neck, with a thick shield.
This is true, even though he has covered his face with his fat and gathered fat on his loins,
28 २८ और वह उजाड़े हुए नगरों में बस गया है, और जो घर रहने योग्य नहीं, और खण्डहर होने को छोड़े गए हैं, उनमें बस गया है।
and has lived in desolate cities; in houses which no man inhabits now and which were ready to become heaps.
29 २९ वह धनी न रहेगा, और न उसकी सम्पत्ति बनी रहेगी, और ऐसे लोगों के खेत की उपज भूमि की ओर न झुकने पाएगी।
He will not be rich; his wealth will not last and his possessions will not spread over the land.
30 ३० वह अंधियारे से कभी न निकलेगा, और उसकी डालियाँ आग की लपट से झुलस जाएँगी, और परमेश्वर के मुँह की श्वास से वह उड़ जाएगा।
He will not depart out of darkness; a flame will dry up his stalks; at the breath of God's mouth he will go away.
Let him not trust in useless things, deceiving himself; for uselessness will be his reward.
It will happen before his time should come to die; his branch will not be green.
He will drop his unripe grapes like a grapevine; he will cast off his flowers like the olive tree.
34 ३४ क्योंकि भक्तिहीन के परिवार से कुछ बन न पड़ेगा, और जो घूस लेते हैं, उनके तम्बू आग से जल जाएँगे।
For the company of godless people will be barren; fire will consume their tents of bribery.
35 ३५ उनको उपद्रव का गर्भ रहता, और वे अनर्थ को जन्म देते है और वे अपने अन्तःकरण में छल की बातें गढ़ते हैं।”
They conceive mischief and give birth to iniquity; their womb conceives deceit.”
