ಯೋಬನು 6
Then Job answered,
2 ೨ “ಆಹಾ, ತ್ರಾಸಿನಲ್ಲಿ ನನ್ನ ವಿಪತ್ತನ್ನು ಇಟ್ಟು; ಅದರಿಂದ ನನ್ನ ಕರಕರೆಯ ಭಾರವನ್ನು ತೂಕ ಮಾಡುವುದಾದರೆ ಎಷ್ಟೋ ಒಳ್ಳೆಯದು.
"Oh that my anguish were weighed, and all my calamity laid in the balances.
3 ೩ ಆಗ ನನ್ನ ವಿಪತ್ತು ಸಮುದ್ರದ ಮರಳಿಗಿಂತಲೂ ಹೆಚ್ಚು ಭಾರವುಳ್ಳದ್ದೆಂದು ಗೊತ್ತಾಗುವುದು ಎಂದು ದುಡುಕಿನಿಂದ ಮಾತನಾಡಿದ್ದೇನೆ.
For now it would be heavier than the sand of the seas, therefore have my words been rash.
4 ೪ ಸರ್ವಶಕ್ತನಾದ ದೇವರ ಬಾಣಗಳು ನನ್ನಲ್ಲಿ ನಾಟಿರುತ್ತವೆ, ನನ್ನ ಆತ್ಮವು ಅವುಗಳ ವಿಷವನ್ನು ಹೀರಿಕೊಳ್ಳುತ್ತದೆ; ದೇವರು ಕಳುಹಿಸಿದ ಅಪಾಯಗಳು ನನಗೆ ವಿರುದ್ಧವಾಗಿ ವ್ಯೂಹಕಟ್ಟಿವೆ.
For the arrows of Shaddai are within me. My spirit drinks up their poison. The terrors of God set themselves in array against me.
Does the wild donkey bray when he has grass? Or does the ox low over his fodder?
Can that which has no flavor be eaten without salt? Or is there any taste in the white of an egg?
My soul refuses to touch them. They are as loathsome food to me.
"Oh that I might have my request, that God would grant the thing that I long for,
even that it would please God to crush me; that he would let loose his hand, and cut me off.
10 ೧೦ ಆಗ ನಾನು ಆದರಣೆ ಹೊಂದಿ ಮಿತಿಯಿಲ್ಲದ ಯಾತನೆಯಲ್ಲಿಯೂ ಉಲ್ಲಾಸಿಸುವೆನು. ಪರಿಶುದ್ಧ ದೇವರ ಆಜ್ಞೆಗಳನ್ನು ನಾನು ತೊರೆದುಬಿಟ್ಟವನಲ್ಲ.
Be it still my consolation, yes, let me exult in pain that doesn't spare, that I have not denied the words of the Holy One.
What is my strength, that I should wait? What is my end, that I should be patient?
Is my strength the strength of stones? Or is my flesh of bronze?
Isn't it that I have no help in me, That wisdom is driven quite from me?
14 ೧೪ ಒಬ್ಬನು ಮನಗುಂದಿ ಸರ್ವಶಕ್ತನಾದ ದೇವರ ಮೇಲಣ ಭಯಭಕ್ತಿಯನ್ನು ಬಿಡುವವನಾಗಿದ್ದರೂ; ಅವನ ಮಿತ್ರನು ಅವನಿಗೆ ದಯೆ ತೋರಿಸಬೇಕು.
"To the despairing, kindness should be shown from his friend; even to him who forsakes the fear of Shaddai.
My brothers have dealt deceitfully as a brook, as the channel of brooks that pass away;
Which are black by reason of the ice, in which the snow hides itself.
In the dry season, they vanish. When it is hot, they are consumed out of their place.
The caravans that travel beside them turn aside. They go up into the waste, and perish.
The caravans of Tema looked. The companies of Sheba waited for them.
They were distressed because they were confident. They came there, and were confounded.
For now you are nothing. You see a terror, and are afraid.
22 ೨೨ ನನ್ನ ಬಿನ್ನಹವೇನು? ‘ನನಗೆ ದಾನಮಾಡಿರಿ’ ಎಂದು ಬಿನ್ನವಿಸಿದೆನೋ? ನಿಮ್ಮ ಆಸ್ತಿಯಿಂದ, ‘ನನಗಾಗಿ ಲಂಚಕೊಡಿರಿ’ ಎಂದೆನೋ?
Did I say, 'Give to me?' or, 'Offer a present for me from your substance?'
23 ೨೩ ವಿರೋಧಿಯ ಕೈಯಿಂದ, ‘ನನ್ನನ್ನು ರಕ್ಷಿಸಿರಿ’ ಎಂದು ಕೇಳಿಕೊಂಡೆನೋ? ಬಲಾತ್ಕರಿಸುವವರಿಂದ, ‘ನನ್ನನ್ನು ವಿಮೋಚಿಸಿರಿ’ ಎಂದು ಬೇಡಿಕೊಂಡೆನೋ?
or, 'Deliver me from the adversary's hand?' or, 'Redeem me from the hand of the oppressors?'
"Teach me, and I will hold my peace. Cause me to understand wherein I have erred.
How forcible are words of uprightness. But your reproof, what does it reprove?
Do you intend to reprove words, seeing that the speeches of one who is desperate are as wind?
Yes, you would even cast lots for the fatherless, and make merchandise of your friend.
Now therefore be pleased to look at me, for surely I shall not lie to your face.
Please return. Let there be no injustice. Yes, return again. My cause is righteous.
30 ೩೦ ರುಚಿಗೆ ನನ್ನ ನಾಲಿಗೆಯು ತಪ್ಪುಮಾಡುತ್ತದೋ? ಸತ್ಯಾಸತ್ಯಗಳ, ನ್ಯಾಯಾನ್ಯಾಯಗಳನ್ನು ವಿವೇಚಿಸುವ ಸಾಮರ್ಥ್ಯ ನನಗಿಲ್ಲವೇ?
Is there injustice on my tongue? Can't my taste discern mischievous things?
