ഇയ്യോബ് 17
My spirit is broken, my days are cut short, the grave is ready for me.
Yet truly those that mock are with me, and on their offendings must my eye rest.
And thou, [Creator!] attend, I pray thee, be my surety with thyself: who else is there that would strike hands with me?
4 ൪ ബുദ്ധി തോന്നാത്തവണ്ണം അവിടുന്ന് അവരുടെ ഹൃദയം അടച്ചുകളഞ്ഞു; അതുനിമിത്തം അവിടുന്ന് അവരെ ഉയർത്തുകയില്ല.
For thou hast concealed their heart against intelligence: therefore art thou not exalted [through them].
Every one of them speaketh deceptively to his friends: may also the eyes of his children fail.
And he hath placed me here as a by-word unto nations; and I become openly as a place of abomination.
Therefore is my eye dim from vexation, and my limbs are all of them like a shadow.
Upright men must be astonished at this, and the innocent must arouse himself against the hypocrite.
Yet will the righteous hold firmly on to his way; and he that is clean of hands will acquire additional strength.
But all of you, do only return, and come but [to me]: and yet I shall not find among you one wise man.
11 ൧൧ എന്റെ നാളുകൾ കഴിഞ്ഞുപോയി; എന്റെ ഉദ്ദേശ്യങ്ങൾക്ക്, എന്റെ ഹൃദയത്തിലെ നിരൂപണങ്ങൾക്ക് തകർച്ച സംഭവിച്ചു.
My days are past, my resolves are broken off, [even the thoughts]—the possessions of my heart.
These would change the night into day, the light as near in the presence of darkness.—
13 ൧൩ ഞാനോ പാതാളത്തെ എന്റെ വീടായി പ്രതീക്ഷിക്കുന്നു; ഇരുട്ടിൽ ഞാൻ എന്റെ കിടക്ക വിരിച്ചിരിക്കുന്നു. (Sheol h7585)
When I hope for the nether world as my house; in the darkness have I spread my couch; (Sheol h7585)
14 ൧൪ ഞാൻ ദ്രവത്വത്തോട്: നീ എന്റെ അപ്പൻ എന്നും പുഴുവിനോട്: നീ എന്റെ അമ്മയും സഹോദരിയും എന്നും പറഞ്ഞിരിക്കുന്നു.
When I call to corruption, Thou art my father: Thou art my mother, and my sister, to the worms.
Ay, where is then my hope? as for my hope, who will see it [fulfilled]?
