ईयोब 38
Then spake Jehovah to Job out of the whirlwind, and said:
Who is this that darkeneth counsel by words without knowledge?
Gird up thy loins like a man! I will ask thee, and answer thou me!
Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth? Declare, if thou hast understanding!
Who fixed its dimensions, that thou shouldst know it! Or who stretched out the line upon it?
Upon what were its foundations fixed? And who laid its corner-stone,
When the morning stars sang together, And all the sons of God shouted for joy?
And who shut up the sea with doors, When it burst forth as from the womb?
When I made the clouds its mantle, And thick darkness its swaddling-band;
When I appointed for it my bound, And fixed for it bars and doors;
And said, Thus far shalt thou come, and no farther, And here shall thy proud waves be stayed!
Hast thou, in thy life, given charge to the morning, Or caused the day-spring to know its place,
13 १३ तू कधीतरी पहाटेच्या प्रकाशाला पृथ्वीला पकडून दुष्ट लोकांस त्यांच्या लपायच्या जागेतून हुसकायला सांगितलेस का?
That it should lay hold of the ends of the earth, And shake the wicked out of it?
14 १४ पहाटेच्या प्रकाशात डोंगरदऱ्या नीट दिसतात. दिवसाच्या प्रकाशात या जगाचा आकार अंगरख्याला असलेल्या घडीप्रमाणे ठळक दिसतात
It is changed as clay by the seal; And all things stand forth as in rich apparel.
But from the wicked their light is withheld, And the high-raised arm is broken.
16 १६ सागराला जिथे सुरुवात होते तिथे अगदी खोल जागेत तू कधी गेला आहेस का? समुद्राच्या तळात तू कधी चालला आहेस का?
Hast thou visited the springs of the sea, And walked through the recesses of the deep?
Have the gates of death been disclosed to thee, And hast thou seen the gates of the shadow of death?
Hast thou surveyed the breadth of the earth? Declare, if thou knowest it all!
Where is the way to the abode of light? And darkness—where is its dwelling-place?
20 २० तू प्रकाशाला आणि काळोखाला ते जिथून आले तेथे परत नेऊ शकशील का? तिथे कसे जायचे ते तुला माहीत आहे का?
That thou shouldst lead it to its boundary, And that thou shouldst know the paths to its mansion!
21 २१ तुला या सर्व गोष्टी नक्कीच माहीत असतील तू खूप वृध्द आणि विद्वान आहेस मी तेव्हा या गोष्टी निर्माण केल्या तेव्हा तू जिवंत होतास होय ना?
Surely thou knowest; for thou wast then born! And the number of thy years is great!
Hast thou visited the storehouses of the snow, Or seen the treasuries of the hail,
Which I have reserved against the time of trouble, —Against the day of battle and war?
24 २४ सूर्य उगवतो त्याठिकाणी तू कधी गेला आहेस का? पूर्वेकडचा वारा जिथून सर्व जगभर वाहातो तिथे तू कधी गेला आहेस का?
What is the way to where light is distributed, And the east wind spread abroad upon the earth?
Who hath prepared channels for the rain, And a path for the thunder-flash,
To give rain to the land without an inhabitant, To the wilderness wherein is no man;
To satisfy the desolate and waste ground, And cause the tender herb to spring forth?
Hath the rain a father? Or who hath begotten the drops of the dew?
Out of whose womb came the ice? And who hath gendered the hoar-frost of heaven?
The waters are hid as under stone, And the face of the deep becometh solid.
Canst thou fasten the bands of the Pleiades, Or loosen the chains of Orion?
32 ३२ तुला राशीचक्र योग्यवेळी आकाशात आणता येईल का? किंवा तुला सप्तऋर्षो त्यांच्या समूहासह मार्ग दाखवता येईल का?
Canst thou lead forth the Signs in their season, Or guide the Bear with her sons?
Knowest thou the ordinances of the heavens? Hast thou appointed their dominion over the earth?
Canst thou lift up thy voice to the clouds, So that abundance of waters will cover thee?
35 ३५ तुला विद्युतलतेला आज्ञा करता येईल का? ती तुझ्याकडे येऊन. आम्ही आलो आहोत काय आज्ञा आहे? असे म्हणेल का? तुझ्या सांगण्याप्रमाणे ती हवे तिथे जाईल का?
Canst thou send forth lightnings, so that they will go, And say to thee, “Here we are”?
Who hath put understanding in the reins, And given intelligence to the mind?
Who numbereth the clouds in wisdom? And who poureth out the bottles of heaven,
When the dust floweth into a molten mass, And the clods cleave fast together?
Canst thou hunt prey for the lioness, Or satisfy the hunger of the young lions,
When they couch in their dens, And lie in wait in the thicket?
41 ४१ कावळ्याला कोण अन्न देतो? जेव्हा त्याची पिल्ले देवाकडे याचना करतात आणि अन्नासाठी चारी दिशा भटकतात तेव्हा त्यांना कोण अन्न पुरवतो?
Who provideth for the raven his food, When his young ones cry unto God, While they wander about without food?
