अय्यूब 27
Moreover Job continued his discourse, and said:
2 २ “मैं परमेश्वर के जीवन की शपथ खाता हूँ जिसने मेरा न्याय बिगाड़ दिया, अर्थात् उस सर्वशक्तिमान के जीवन की जिसने मेरा प्राण कड़वा कर दिया।
As God liveth, who hath rejected my cause, And the Almighty, who hath afflicted my soul;
As long as my breath is in me, And the spirit of God is in my nostrils,
Never shall my lips speak falsehood, Nor my tongue utter deceit.
5 ५ परमेश्वर न करे कि मैं तुम लोगों को सच्चा ठहराऊँ, जब तक मेरा प्राण न छूटे तब तक मैं अपनी खराई से न हटूँगा।
God forbid that I should acknowledge you to be just: To my last breath will I assert my integrity.
6 ६ मैं अपनी धार्मिकता पकड़े हुए हूँ और उसको हाथ से जाने न दूँगा; क्योंकि मेरा मन जीवन भर मुझे दोषी नहीं ठहराएगा।
I will hold fast my innocence, and not let it go; My heart reproacheth me for no part of my life.
May mine enemy be as the wicked, And he that riseth up against me as the unrighteous!
8 ८ जब परमेश्वर भक्तिहीन मनुष्य का प्राण ले ले, तब यद्यपि उसने धन भी प्राप्त किया हो, तो भी उसकी क्या आशा रहेगी?
For what is the hope of the wicked, when God cutteth off his web, And taketh away his life?
Will he listen to his cry, When trouble cometh upon him?
Can he delight himself in the Almighty, And call at all times upon God?
11 ११ मैं तुम्हें परमेश्वर के काम के विषय शिक्षा दूँगा, और सर्वशक्तिमान परमेश्वर की बात मैं न छिपाऊँगा
I will teach you concerning the hand of God; That which is with the Almighty I will not conceal.
Behold, ye yourselves have all seen it; Why then do ye cherish such vain thoughts?
13 १३ “दुष्ट मनुष्य का भाग परमेश्वर की ओर से यह है, और उपद्रवियों का अंश जो वे सर्वशक्तिमान परमेश्वर के हाथ से पाते हैं, वह यह है, कि
This is the portion of the wicked man from God, —The inheritance which oppressors receive from the Almighty.
14 १४ चाहे उसके बच्चे गिनती में बढ़ भी जाएँ, तो भी तलवार ही के लिये बढ़ेंगे, और उसकी सन्तान पेट भर रोटी न खाने पाएगी।
If his children be multiplied, it is for the sword; And his offspring shall not be satisfied with bread.
Those of them that escape shall be buried by Death, And their widows shall not bewail them.
Though he heap up silver as dust, And procure raiment as clay, —
17 १७ वह उन्हें तैयार कराए तो सही, परन्तु धर्मी उन्हें पहन लेगा, और उसका रुपया निर्दोष लोग आपस में बाँटेंगे।
He may procure, but the righteous shall wear it, And the innocent shall share the silver.
He buildeth his house like the moth, Or like the shed which the watchman maketh.
The rich man lieth down, and is not buried; In the twinkling of an eye he is no more.
Terrors pursue him like a flood; A tempest stealeth him away in the night.
The east wind carrieth him away, and he perisheth; Yea, it sweepeth him away from his place.
God sendeth his arrows at him, and doth not spare; He would fain escape from His hand.
Men clap their hands at him, And hiss him away from his place.
