ईयोब 17
“My spirit is broken; my days are extinguished; the grave awaits me.
Surely mockers surround me, and my eyes must gaze at their rebellion.
Give me, I pray, the pledge You demand. Who else will be my guarantor?
You have closed their minds to understanding; therefore You will not exalt them.
5 ५ जो आपल्या मित्रांशी धोका करून त्यास लुटीप्रमाणे परक्यांच्या हाती देतो, त्याच्या मुलांचे डोळे जातील.
If a man denounces his friends for a price, the eyes of his children will fail.
He has made me a byword among the people, a man in whose face they spit.
My eyes have grown dim with grief, and my whole body is but a shadow.
8 ८ यामुळे चांगले लोक फार व्यथित झाले आहेत. देवाची पर्वा न करणाऱ्या लोकांमुळे निष्पाप लोक व्यथित होतात.
The upright are appalled at this, and the innocent are stirred against the godless.
9 ९ पण चांगली माणसे मात्र न्यायाने जीवन जगत राहतात. ज्याचे हात निर्मळ तो अधिकाधिक सामर्थ्यवान होत जाईल.
Yet a righteous one holds to his way, and the one with clean hands grows stronger.

But come back and try again, all of you. For I will not find a wise man among you.
My days have passed; my plans are broken off— even the desires of my heart.
12 १२ माझे मित्र गोंधळून गेले आहेत. त्यांना रात्र दिवसासारखी वाटते. अंधकारापेक्षा प्रकाश जवळ आहे असे ते म्हणतात.
They have turned night into day, making light seem near in the face of darkness.
13 १३ थडगेच माझे नवीन घर असेल अशी मी आशा करतो. अंधाऱ्या थडग्यांत माझे अंथरुण घालण्याची इच्छा मी धरतो. (Sheol h7585)
If I look for Sheol as my home, if I spread out my bed in darkness, (Sheol h7585)
and say to corruption, ‘You are my father,’ and to the worm, ‘My mother,’ or ‘My sister,’
where then is my hope? Who can see any hope for me?
