ईयोब 36
Elihu also proceeded, and said,
Suffer me a little, and I will shew thee: for I have yet somewhat to say on God’s behalf.
I will fetch my knowledge from afar, and will ascribe righteousness to my Maker.
For truly my words are not false: one that is perfect in knowledge is with thee.
Behold, God is mighty, and despiseth not any: he is mighty in strength of understanding.
He preserveth not the life of the wicked: but giveth to the afflicted [their] right.
7 ७ जे लोक योग्य रीतीने वागतात त्यांच्यावर देव नजर ठेवतो. तो चांगल्या लोकांस राज्य करु देतो. तो चांगल्यांना सदैव उंच करतो.
He withdraweth not his eyes from the righteous: but with kings upon the throne he setteth them for ever, and they are exalted.
And if they be bound in fetters, and be taken in the cords of affliction;
9 ९ आणि त्यांनी काय चूक केली ते देव त्यांना सांगेल. देव त्यांना सांगेल की त्यांनी पाप केले आहे. देव त्यांना ते गर्विष्ठ होते असे सांगेल.
Then he sheweth them their work, and their transgressions, that they have behaved themselves proudly.
He openeth also their ear to instruction, and commandeth that they return from iniquity.
If they hearken and serve [him], they shall spend their days in prosperity, and their years in pleasures.
But if they hearken not, they shall perish by the sword, and they shall die without knowledge.
13 १३ जे लोक देवाची पर्वा करीत नाहीत ते सदा कटू (रागावलेले) असतात. देवाने जरी त्यांना बांधले तरी ते देवाकडे मदत मागायला तयार नसतात.
But they that are godless in heart lay up anger: they cry not for help when he bindeth them.
They die in youth, and their life [perisheth] among the unclean.
He delivereth the afflicted by his affliction, and openeth their ear in oppression.
16 १६ खरोखर, त्यास तुला दुःखातून काढायला आवडते व अडचण नसलेल्या मोकळ्या जागी नेतो, आणि तुझ्या जेवणाच्या टेबलावर भरपूर पौष्टीक अन्न ठेवले असते.
Yea, he would have led thee away out of distress into a broad place, where there is no straitness; and that which is set on thy table should be full of fatness.
But thou art full of the judgment of the wicked: judgment and justice take hold [on thee].
Because there is wrath, beware lest thou be led away by [thy] sufficiency; neither let the greatness of the ransom turn thee aside.
19 १९ आता तुझ्या सपंत्तीचा तुला काही नफा होईल काय, म्हणजे तू दुःखी होणार नाहीस किंवा तुझ्या सर्व सामर्थ्याचा तुला काही उपयोग होईल काय?
Will thy riches suffice, [that thou be] not in distress, or all the forces of [thy] strength?
20 २० दुसऱ्या विरूद्ध पाप करण्यास तू रात्र होण्याची इच्छा मनी बाळगू नकोस, लोक रात्री पसार होण्याची वेळ प्रयत्न करतात.
Desire not the night, when peoples are cut off in their place.
21 २१ काळजीपूर्वक रहा पापाकडे वळू नकोस. कारण तुझी त्रासातून परीक्षा झाली आहे, म्हणून तू पापापासुन दूर रहा.
Take heed, regard not iniquity: for this hast thou chosen rather than affliction.
Behold, God doeth loftily in his power: who is a teacher like unto him?
23 २३ त्याच्या मार्गाबद्दल त्यास कोण सुचीत करील? ‘देवा तू अयोग्य केलेस’ असे कोणी त्यास म्हणू शकत नाही.
Who hath enjoined him his way? or who can say, Thou hast wrought unrighteousness?
Remember that thou magnify his work, whereof men have sung.
25 २५ त्याने कार्य केले ते प्रत्येक मनुष्याला दिसते. दूरदूरच्या देशांतील लोकांसही देवाचे महान कार्य दिसतात.
All men have looked thereon; man beholdeth it afar off.
26 २६ होय, देव महान आहे परंतु त्याची महानता आपल्याला कळत नाही. आम्ही त्याच्या वर्षाची संख्या पाहाणे अशक्य आहे.
Behold, God is great, and we know him not; the number of his years is unsearchable.
For he draweth up the drops of water, which distil in rain from his vapour:
Which the skies pour down and drop upon man abundantly.
Yea, can any understand the spreadings of the clouds, the thunderings of his pavilion?
Behold, he spreadeth his light around him; and he covereth the bottom of the sea.
For by these he judgeth the peoples; he giveth meat in abundance.
He covereth his hands with the lightning; and giveth it a charge that it strike the mark.
The noise thereof telleth concerning him, the cattle also concerning [the storm] that cometh up.
