अय्यूब 19
And Job answereth and saith: —
Till when do ye afflict my soul, And bruise me with words?
3 ३ इन दसों बार तुम लोग मेरी निन्दा ही करते रहे, तुम्हें लज्जा नहीं आती, कि तुम मेरे साथ कठोरता का बर्ताव करते हो?
These ten times ye put me to shame, ye blush not. Ye make yourselves strange to me —
And also — truly, I have erred, With me doth my error remain.
If, truly, over me ye magnify yourselves, And decide against me my reproach;
Know now, that God turned me upside down, And His net against me hath set round,
7 ७ देखो, मैं उपद्रव! उपद्रव! चिल्लाता रहता हूँ, परन्तु कोई नहीं सुनता; मैं सहायता के लिये दुहाई देता रहता हूँ, परन्तु कोई न्याय नहीं करता।
Lo, I cry out — violence, and am not answered, I cry aloud, and there is no judgment.
My way He hedged up, and I pass not over, And on my paths darkness He placeth.
Mine honour from off me He hath stripped, And He turneth the crown from my head.
10 १० उसने चारों ओर से मुझे तोड़ दिया, बस मैं जाता रहा, और मेरी आशा को उसने वृक्ष के समान उखाड़ डाला है।
He breaketh me down round about, and I go, And removeth like a tree my hope.
And He kindleth against me His anger, And reckoneth me to Him as His adversaries.
Come in do His troops together, And they raise up against me their way, And encamp round about my tent.
13 १३ “उसने मेरे भाइयों को मुझसे दूर किया है, और जो मेरी जान-पहचान के थे, वे बिलकुल अनजान हो गए हैं।
My brethren from me He hath put far off, And mine acquaintances surely Have been estranged from me.
Ceased have my neighbours And my familiar friends have forgotten me,
15 १५ जो मेरे घर में रहा करते थे, वे, वरन् मेरी दासियाँ भी मुझे अनजान गिनने लगीं हैं; उनकी दृष्टि में मैं परदेशी हो गया हूँ।
Sojourners of my house and my maids, For a stranger reckon me: An alien I have been in their eyes.
To my servant I have called, And he doth not answer, With my mouth I make supplication to him.
My spirit is strange to my wife, And my favours to the sons of my [mother's] womb.
Also sucklings have despised me, I rise, and they speak against me.
19 १९ मेरे सब परम मित्र मुझसे द्वेष रखते हैं, और जिनसे मैंने प्रेम किया वे पलटकर मेरे विरोधी हो गए हैं।
Abominate me do all the men of my counsel, And those I have loved, Have been turned against me.
To my skin and to my flesh Cleaved hath my bone, And I deliver myself with the skin of my teeth.
Pity me, pity me, ye my friends, For the hand of God hath stricken against me.
Why do you pursue me as God? And with my flesh are not satisfied?
Who doth grant now, That my words may be written? Who doth grant that in a book they may be graven?
With a pen of iron and lead — For ever in a rock they may be hewn.
That — I have known my Redeemer, The Living and the Last, For the dust he doth rise.
And after my skin hath compassed this [body], Then from my flesh I see God:
27 २७ उसका दर्शन मैं आप अपनी आँखों से अपने लिये करूँगा, और न कोई दूसरा। यद्यपि मेरा हृदय अन्दर ही अन्दर चूर-चूर भी हो जाए,
Whom I — I see on my side, And mine eyes have beheld, and not a stranger, Consumed have been my reins in my bosom.
But ye say, 'Why do we pursue after him?' And the root of the matter hath been found in me.
29 २९ तो तुम तलवार से डरो, क्योंकि जलजलाहट से तलवार का दण्ड मिलता है, जिससे तुम जान लो कि न्याय होता है।”
Be ye afraid because of the sword, For furious [are] the punishments of the sword, That ye may know that [there is] a judgment.
