ಯೋಬನು 19
Job replied,
“How long will you go on tormenting me? How long will you go on crushing me with words?
Ten times already you have humiliated me. Aren't you ashamed for treating me so badly?
Even if I did sin, that's my problem, and has nothing to do with you.
5 ೫ ನನ್ನ ವಿರುದ್ಧವಾಗಿ ನಿಮ್ಮನ್ನು ನೀವೇ ಹೆಚ್ಚಿಸಿಕೊಂಡು ನನಗಾದ ಅವಮಾನವನ್ನು ನ್ಯಾಯವೆಂದು ಸ್ಥಾಪಿಸುವುದಕ್ಕೆ ನಿಜವಾಗಿ ಇಷ್ಟಪಡುವಿರೋ?
You think you're so much better than me, and you use my degradation against me.
6 ೬ ಹೀಗಾದರೆ ನನ್ನ ನ್ಯಾಯವನ್ನು ತಿರುಗಿಸಿಬಿಟ್ಟು ನನ್ನ ಸುತ್ತಲೂ ತನ್ನ ಬಲೆಯನ್ನೊಡ್ಡಿದವನು ದೇವರೇ ಎಂದು ತಿಳಿದುಕೊಳ್ಳಿರಿ.
But you should realize that it's God who has wronged me, he has trapped me in his net.
Even though I cry for help, I get no answer; even though I shout my objections, I get no justice.
8 ೮ ನಾನು ಮುಂದೆ ಹೋಗದ ಹಾಗೆ ಆತನು ನನ್ನ ದಾರಿಗೆ ಅಡ್ಡಗೋಡೆ ಹಾಕಿ, ನನ್ನ ಹಾದಿಗಳನ್ನು ಕತ್ತಲು ಕವಿಯುವಂತೆ ಮಾಡಿದ್ದಾನೆ.
God has walled me in so I can't escape; he has plunged my path into darkness.
He has stripped my honor from me; he has taken away my reputation.
10 ೧೦ ಆತನು ನನ್ನನ್ನು ಸುತ್ತುಮುತ್ತಲೂ ಕೆಡವಿದ್ದರಿಂದ ಇಲ್ಲದೆ ಹೋದೆನು. ಮರವನ್ನು ಕೀಳುವ ಹಾಗೆ ನನ್ನ ನಿರೀಕ್ಷೆಯನ್ನು ಕಿತ್ತುಬಿಟ್ಟಿದ್ದಾನೆ.
He tears me down from all sides until I am finished; he has destroyed my hope like a tree that is uprooted.
His anger burns against me; he treats me as one of his enemies.
God's troops assemble to attack me. They build ramparts against me. They encircle and besiege my home.
He has driven my brothers far away from me; all my former friends are estranged from me.
My relatives have abandoned me; my close friends have forgotten me.
My house guests and my maidservants treat me as a stranger—to them I have become a foreigner.
I call my servant, but he doesn't reply. I have to beg him!
I am repulsive to my wife, and I am loathsome to my own brothers.
Even young children despise me; when I stand up they ridicule me.
19 ೧೯ ನನ್ನ ಆಪ್ತಮಿತ್ರರೆಲ್ಲರೂ ನನ್ನನ್ನು ನೋಡಿ ಹೇಸಿಕೊಳ್ಳುತ್ತಾರೆ; ನನ್ನ ಪ್ರೀತಿಪಾತ್ರರು ಸಹ ನನ್ನ ಮೇಲೆ ತಿರುಗಿಬಿದ್ದಿದ್ದಾರೆ.
All my closest friends despise me, and those I loved have turned on me.
20 ೨೦ ನನ್ನ ಎಲುಬು ಚರ್ಮಕ್ಕೂ, ಮಾಂಸಕ್ಕೂ ಅಂಟಿಹೋಗಿದೆ, ಹಲ್ಲಿನ ಪರೆಯನ್ನು ಮಾತ್ರ ಉಳಿಸಿಕೊಂಡು (ಮರಣಕ್ಕೆ) ಓರೆಯಾಗಿದ್ದೇನೆ.
I've been reduced to skin and bones and I survive by the skin of my teeth.
Have pity on me, my friends, have pity on me, because God has struck me down!
Why are you persecuting me like God does? Aren't you satisfied with getting your pound of flesh?
I wish my words could be written down, recorded in a book,
or engraved with an iron pen and molten lead in the rock forever.
I know my Redeemer is alive, and that he shall finally take the stand for me on the earth.
Even though my skin is destroyed, in my body I shall see God.
27 ೨೭ ಕಣ್ಣಾರೆ ಕಾಣುವೆನು, ನಾನೇ ನಾನಾಗಿ ನೋಡುವೆನು, ಮತ್ತೊಬ್ಬನಾಗಿ ಅಲ್ಲ. ನನ್ನ ಹೃದಯವು ಹಂಬಲಿಕೆಯಿಂದ ನನ್ನಲ್ಲಿ ಕುಂದಿದೆ.
I myself will see him—with my own eyes, and not those of someone else! The thought overcomes me!
28 ೨೮ ಅವನಿಗೆ, ‘ಆದಷ್ಟು ಹಿಂಸೆಯನ್ನು ಮಾಡೋಣ, ಅವನಿಗೆ ಸಂಭವಿಸಿದ್ದಕ್ಕೆ ಮೂಲವು ಅವನಲ್ಲಿಯೇ ಅಡಗಿದೆ’ ಎಂದು ನೀವು ಆಡಿಕೊಂಡ ಕಾರಣ,
You say to yourselves, ‘How can we make him suffer so he can see he is the source of his problems?’
29 ೨೯ ಕತ್ತಿಗೆ ಭಯಪಡಿರಿ, ಏಕೆಂದರೆ ಕತ್ತಿಯ ದಂಡನೆಗಳು ತೀಕ್ಷ್ಣವಾಗಿದೆ, ಇದರಿಂದ ನ್ಯಾಯನಿರ್ಣಯವುಂಟೆಂದು ತಿಳಿದುಕೊಳ್ಳುವಿರಿ.”
You yourselves should fear being punished by God, for you know anger brings God's punishment that accompanies judgment.”
