ಯೋಬನು 20
And Zophar the Naamathite answers and says:
“Therefore my thoughts cause me to answer, And because of my sensations in me.
3 ೩ ಏಕೆಂದರೆ ನಾನು ಅಪಮಾನಕರವಾದ ನಿನ್ನ ಖಂಡನೆಯನ್ನು ಕೇಳಿದ್ದೇನೆ, ಆದಕಾರಣ ನನ್ನ ಆತ್ಮವು ನನ್ನ ಬುದ್ಧಿಯಿಂದಲೇ ಕಲಿತ ಉತ್ತರವನ್ನು ನನಗೆ ತಿಳಿಸುತ್ತದೆ.
I hear the discipline of my shame, And the spirit of my understanding causes me to answer:
Have you known this from antiquity? Since the placing of man on earth?
That the singing of the wicked [is] short, And the joy of the profane for a moment,
Though his excellence goes up to the heavens, He strikes his head against a cloud—
He perishes as his own dung forever, His beholders say, Where [is] he?
He flees as a dream, and they do not find him, And he is driven away as a vision of the night,
The eye has not seen him, and does not add. And his place does not behold him again.
10 ೧೦ ಅವನ ಮಕ್ಕಳು ದರಿದ್ರರ ದಯೆಯನ್ನು ಬೇಡುವರು. ಅವನು ತನ್ನ ಕೈಯಿಂದಲೇ ತನ್ನ ಆಸ್ತಿಯನ್ನು ಹಿಂದಕ್ಕೆ ಕೊಟ್ಟು ಬಿಡಬೇಕಾಗುವುದು.
His sons oppress the poor, And his hands give back his wealth.
His bones have been full of his youth, and it lies down with him on the dust.
Though he sweetens evil in his mouth, hides it under his tongue,
has pity on it, and does not forsake it, and keeps it back in the midst of his palate,
his food is turned in his bowels, the bitterness of cobras [is] in his heart.
He has swallowed wealth, and vomits it. God drives it out from his belly.
He sucks [the] gall of cobras, the tongue of a viper slays him.
He does not look on streams, Flowing of brooks of honey and butter.
He is giving back [what] he labored for, and does not consume [it]; As a bulwark [is] his exchange, and he does not exult.
19 ೧೯ ಅವನು ಬಡವರನ್ನು ಜಜ್ಜಿ ತ್ಯಜಿಸಿಬಿಟ್ಟಿದ್ದಾನಲ್ಲಾ; ಸುಲಿಗೆಯಿಂದ ಕಿತ್ತುಕೊಂಡ ಮನೆಯನ್ನು ಭದ್ರಪಡಿಸಿಕೊಳ್ಳದೆ ಹೋಗುವನು.
For he oppressed—he forsook the poor, He has taken a house away violently, And he does not build it.
For he has not known ease in his belly. With his desirable thing he does not deliver himself.
There is not a remnant to his food, Therefore his good does not stay.
22 ೨೨ ಸಮೃದ್ಧಿಯು ತುಂಬಿರುವಾಗಲೇ ಅವನಿಗೆ ಇಕ್ಕಟ್ಟಾಗುವುದು. ಶ್ರಮೆಯನ್ನು ಅನುಭವಿಸುವ ಪ್ರತಿಯೊಬ್ಬನ ಕೈ ಅವನ ಮೇಲೆ ಬೀಳುವುದು.
In the fullness of his sufficiency he is constricted. Every perverse hand meets him.
23 ೨೩ ಅವನ ಹೊಟ್ಟೆ ತುಂಬುವುದು, ಹೌದು, ದೇವರು ತನ್ನ ಕೋಪಾಗ್ನಿಯನ್ನು ಕಳುಹಿಸಿ; ಅದನ್ನೇ ಆಹಾರವನ್ನಾಗಿ ಅವನ ಮೇಲೆ ಸುರಿಸುವನು.
It comes to pass, at the filling of his belly, He sends forth against him The fierceness of His anger, Indeed, He rains on him in his eating.
He flees from an iron weapon, A bow of bronze passes through him.
25 ೨೫ ಅವನು ಬಾಣವನ್ನು ಕೀಳಲು ಅದು ಬೆನ್ನಿನಿಂದ ಹೊರಬರುವುದು, ಥಳಥಳಿಸುತ್ತಾ ಅವನ ಪಿತ್ತಕೋಶದೊಳಗಿಂದ ಹೊರಡುತ್ತಿರುವುದು, ಭಯಭ್ರಾಂತಿಗಳು ಅವನನ್ನು ಮುತ್ತಿಕೊಳ್ಳುವವು.
One has drawn, And it comes out from the body, And a glittering weapon proceeds from his gall. Terrors [are] on him.
26 ೨೬ ಅವನ ನಿಧಿನಿಕ್ಷೇಪಗಳಿಗಾಗಿ ಪೂರ್ಣಾಂಧಕಾರವು ಕಾದಿರುವುದು, ಯಾರೂ ಹೊತ್ತಿಸದ ಬೆಂಕಿಯು ಅವನನ್ನು ತಿಂದುಹಾಕಿ, ಅವನ ಗುಡಾರದಲ್ಲಿ ತಪ್ಪಿಸಿಕೊಂಡದ್ದನ್ನು ಮೇದು ಬಿಡುವುದು.
All darkness is hid for his treasures, A fire not blown consumes him, The remnant is broken in his tent.
The heavens reveal his iniquity, And earth is raising itself against him.
The increase of his house is removed, Poured forth in a day of His anger.
This [is] the portion of a wicked man from God. And an inheritance appointed him by God.”
