ईयोब 35
Then Elihu also said this:
“[Job, ] do you think that what you said is right/correct? You say, ‘God knows that I am innocent,’
3 ३ तू देवाला विचारतोस ‘जर मी नितीमान असण्याचा मला काय लाभ मिळेल? मी जर पाप केले नाहीतर त्यामुळे माझे काय चांगले होणार आहे?’
and you say [to God], ‘What good have I received for not sinning? What benefit have I received from that?’ [DOU, RHQ]
[Well, ] I will answer you, and I will answer your three friends, too.
“[Job], look up at the sky; look at the clouds that are high above you and realize [that God is far above everything].
6 ६ जर तू पाप केलेस तर त्यामुळे देवाला कसली इजा होत नाही? तुझ्याकडे पापांच्या राशी असल्या तरी त्यामुळे देवाला काही होत नाही?
If you have sinned, that does not [RHQ] harm God at all. If many times you do things that are wrong, that certainly does not [RHQ] affect him [DOU].
And if you are righteous, does that help God? No, he is not benefited by anything that you do [DOU].
8 ८ तुझे दुष्टपण कदाचित मनुष्यास ईजा पोहचवेल, जसा तू मनुष्य आहेस, आणि तुझे नितीमत्वाचा कदाचीत एखाद्या मनुष्याच्या पुत्राला लाभ होईल.
It is other people who suffer because of the wicked things that you do, but by doing good things for people, you help them.
9 ९ पुष्कळशा वाईट कृत्यामुळे लोकांस दु: ख झाले तर ते ओरडतील. ते सामर्थ्यवान लोकांकडे जातात आणि मदतीची याचना करतात.
“People cry out because of the many things that people do to others to (oppress them/treat them cruelly); they call for help because of the things that powerful people do [MTY] to them.
But (no one/none of them) calls out [to God], saying ‘Why does God, my creator, [not help me]? He [should] enable me to sing [joyful] songs, [instead of very sad songs, ] during the night.
11 ११ ‘देवाने आम्हास आकाशातील पशुपक्ष्यांपेक्षा शहाणे बनवले आहे तेव्हा तो कुठे आहे?’ पृथ्वीवरील जंगली प्राण्यापेक्षा जो मला अधीक शिकवतो,
He [should be able to] teach us more than all the wild animals do; he [should] enable us to become wiser than [all] the birds are!’
12 १२ त्यामुळे त्यांनी देवाकडे मदत मागितली तरी देव त्यांना उत्तर देणार नाही कारण ते लोक अतिशय गर्विष्ठ आहेत.
People cry out [for help], but God does not answer them, because those who cry out are proud and evil people.
It is useless for them to cry out, because God, the Almighty One, does not pay any attention to what they say.
14 १४ तेव्हा, तू जेव्हा असे म्हणशील की देव तुला दिसत नाही तेव्हा देव तुझ्याकडे लक्ष देणार नाही तर तू त्याची वाट पाहत रहा!
So, when you complain that you cannot see God, and you tell him that you are waiting for him [to decide whether or not you should be punished for what you have done], God will not listen to you, either!
15 १५ तो तुला किती थोडक्यात उत्तर देईल जर तू असे म्हणालास तो क्रोधाने कोणालाही शिक्षा करीत नाही, आणि तो लोकांच्या गर्वीष्ठपणाकडे फारसे लक्ष देत नाही.
Furthermore, [you say that] because he does not pay attention when people commit sins, he does not become angry and punish them.
You say things that are useless; you say a lot of things without knowing [what you are talking about].”
