ईयोब 4
Then Eliphaz, from Teman, replied to Job. He said,
2 २ “जर कोणी तुझ्यासोबत बोलण्याचा प्रयत्न केला, तर तू दु: खी होशील का? परंतू बोलण्यापासून स्वत: ला कोण आवरेल?
“Will you please let me say something to you? I am not [RHQ] able to remain silent [any longer].
In the past, you have instructed/taught many people, and you have encouraged those who were weak.
By what you said, you have helped those who (needed spiritual help/almost quit trusting in God) [MET], and you have enabled them to become spiritually strong again [MET].
But now, when you experience disasters, you become discouraged. The disasters hit you, and you are stunned.
You revere God; (does that not cause you to trust [in him]?/that should cause you to trust [in him].) [RHQ] If you were guiltless, you would [RHQ] be confident that [God] would not [have allowed] these disasters [to] happen to you!
7 ७ मी तुला विंनती करतो, कोणी निष्पाप कधी नाश पावला का? किंवा चांगल्या लोकांचा कधी नि: पात झाला का? याच्या विषयी तू विचार कर.
Think about this: Do innocent people die [while they are still young] [RHQ]? Does God get rid of godly people [RHQ]? [No!]
What I have experienced is this: [Just as] [MET] farmers who plant bad [seeds] do not harvest good [crops], [just as those who start] trouble for others, later bring trouble on themselves.
They die when God angrily blows his breath on them, when he is very angry with them.
[Even though wicked people may be very powerful like] young lions, [God] will get rid of them [MET].
[They will die like] fierce lions [that] starve to death when there are no animals that they can kill and eat, and [their children will be separated from each other like] young lions separate from each other [to find food].”
“I heard a message that someone came and whispered to me.
He spoke to me at night when I was having a bad dream that disturbed/frightened me while I was fast asleep.
It caused me to be afraid and tremble; it caused all my bones to shake.
A ghost glided past my face and caused the hair on [on the back of] my neck to stand straight up.
16 १६ तो आत्मा निश्चल उभा राहिला, पण त्याचा आकार मला दिसू शकला नाही, माझ्या डोळ्यांसमोर एक आकार होता, तेथे शांतता होती आणि वाणी असे बोलताना मी ऐकली.
It stopped, but I could not see what form it had. But [I could sense that] there was some being in front of me, and it said in a quiet voice,
17 १७ मर्त्य मनुष्य देवापेक्षा नितीमान असू शकतो काय? मनुष्य त्याच्या निर्मात्यापेक्षा अधिक शुद्ध असू शकतो काय?
‘(Does God consider anyone to be righteous?/No human beings can be righteous in God’s sight!) [RHQ] (Their creator cannot consider them to be pure./Can their creator consider them to be pure?) [RHQ]
God cannot be sure that his own angels [will always do what is right]; he declares that some of them have done what is wrong.
19 १९ तर जे मातीच्या घरात राहतात त्यांच्याविषयी हे किती सत्य आहे, ज्यांच्या घरांचा पाया धुळीत आहे, ते पंतगासारखे तितक्या लवकर चिरडले जातात?
So he certainly cannot trust human beings who were made from dust and clay, who are crushed as easily as moths are crushed!
20 २० आणि सकाळपासून संध्याकाळपर्यंत ते नाश पावतात, ते कायमचे नष्ट होतात व कोणीही त्यांच्याकडे लक्ष देत नाही.
People are sometimes well in the morning, but in the evening they are dead. They are gone forever and do not even know it (OR, and no one pays any attention to it).
They are like [MET] tents that collapse [suddenly]: They die [suddenly] before they become wise.’”
