ईयोब 3
After this, Job opened his mouth and cursed his day.
And Job answered and said,
3 ३ “मी ज्या दिवशी जन्मलो तो दिवस नष्ट होवो, मुलाची गर्भधारणा झाली अशी जी रात्र म्हणाली ती भस्म होवो.
Let the day perish in which I was born, and the night that said, There is a man child conceived.
4 ४ तो दिवस अंधकारमय होवो, देवाला त्याचे विस्मरण होवो, त्यावर सुर्यप्रकाश पडला नसता तर फार बरे झाले असते.
That day — let it be darkness, let not God care for it from above, neither let light shine upon it:
5 ५ मृत्यूची सावली आणि अंधार त्यास आपल्या स्वतःचा समजो, ढग सदैव त्यावर राहो, जी प्रत्येक गोष्ट दिवसाचा अंधार करते ती त्यास खरेच भयभीत करो,
Let darkness and the shadow of death claim it; let clouds dwell upon it; let darkeners of the day terrify it.
6 ६ ती रात्र काळोख घट्ट पकडून ठेवो, वर्षाच्या दिवसांमध्ये ती आनंद न पावो. महिन्याच्या तिथीत तिची गणती न होवो.
That night — let gloom seize upon it; let it not rejoice among the days of the year; let it not come into the number of the months.
Behold, let that night be barren; let no joyful sound come therein;
Let them curse it that curse the day, who are ready to rouse Leviathan;
9 ९ त्या दिवसाच्या पहाटेचे तारे काळे होत. तो दिवस प्रकाशाची वाट पाहो पण तो कधी न मिळो, त्याच्या पापण्यास उषःकालाचे दर्शन न घडो.
Let the stars of its twilight be dark; let it wait for light, and have none, neither let it see the eyelids of the dawn:
Because it shut not up the doors of the womb that bore me, and hid not trouble from mine eyes.
11 ११ उदरातुन बाहेर आलो तेव्हाच मी का मरण पावलो नाही? माझ्या आईने मला जन्म देताच मी का प्राण त्यागला नाही?
Wherefore did I not die from the womb, — come forth from the belly and expire?
12 १२ तिच्या मांडयानी माझा स्विकार का केला? किंवा मी जगावे म्हणून तिच्या स्तनांनी माझा स्विकार का केला?
Why did the knees meet me? and wherefore the breasts, that I should suck?
For now should I have lain down and been quiet; I should have slept: then had I been at rest,
With kings and counsellors of the earth, who build desolate places for themselves,
15 १५ किंवा ज्या राजकुमारांनी आपली घरे सोन्या रुप्यांनी भरली त्यांच्या बरोबरच मलाही मरण आले असते तर बरे झाले असते.
Or with princes who had gold, who filled their houses with silver;
16 १६ कदाचित मी जन्मापासूनच मृत मूल का झालो नाही, किंवा प्रकाश न पाहिलेले अर्भक मी असतो तर बरे झाले असते.
Or as a hidden untimely birth I had not been; as infants that have not seen the light.
There the wicked cease from troubling; and there the wearied are at rest.
The prisoners together are at ease; they hear not the voice of the taskmaster.
The small and great are there, and the bondman freed from his master.
Wherefore is light given to him that is in trouble, and life to those bitter of soul,
21 २१ ज्याला मरण पाहीजे त्यास मरण येत नाही, दु: खी मनुष्य गुप्त खजिन्यापेक्षा मृत्यूच्या अधिक शोधात असतो?
Who long for death, and it [cometh] not, and dig for it more than for hidden treasures;
Who rejoice even exultingly and are glad when they find the grave? —
To the man whose way is hidden, and whom God hath hedged in?
For my sighing cometh before my bread, and my groanings are poured out like the waters.
For I feared a fear, and it hath come upon me, and that which I dreaded hath come to me.
I was not in safety, neither had I quietness, neither was I at rest, and trouble came.
