ईयोब 5
Call now, see if any will answer thee! And to which of the holy ones wilt thou look?
Verily grief destroyeth the fool, And wrath consumeth the weak man.
I have seen an impious man taking root, But soon I cursed his habitation.
4 ४ त्याची मुले सुरक्षिततेपासून फार दूर आहेत, ते शहराच्या वेशीत चिरडले जातील. त्यांना तारणारा कोणीही राहणार नाही
His children are far from safety; They are oppressed at the gate, and there is none to deliver them.
5 ५ भुकेल्या मनुष्यांनी त्याची उभी पिके खाऊन टाकली, काट्याकुटयात वाढलेले धान्यही लोकांनी सोडले नाही, लोभी मनुष्यांनी सर्वकाही नेले.
His harvest the hungry devour, Carrying it even through the thorns; And a snare gapeth after his substance.
For affliction cometh not from the dust, Nor doth trouble spring up from the ground;
Behold, man is born to trouble, As the sparks fly upward.
I would look to God, And to God would I commit my cause,
Who doeth great things and unsearchable; Yea, marvellous things without number;
Who giveth rain upon the earth, And sendeth water upon the fields;
Who placeth the lowly in high places, And restoreth the afflicted to prosperity;
Who disappointeth the devices of the crafty, So that their hands cannot perform their enterprises;
13 १३ तो शहाण्यास त्याच्याच धुर्ततेच्या जाळ्यात अडकवितो, तो हूशार लोंकाच्या मसलती लवकर संपुष्टात आणतो.
Who taketh the wise in their own craftiness, And bringeth to nought the counsel of the artful.
They meet with darkness in the daytime; They grope at noon as if it were night.
15 १५ त्यांच्या मुखांतील तलवारीपासून तो दरीद्री मनुष्यास, आणि बलंवताच्या हातातून गरजवंत मनुष्यास सोडवतो
So he saveth the persecuted from their mouth; The oppressed from the hand of the mighty.
So the poor hath hope, And iniquity stoppeth her mouth.
17 १७ पाहा, ज्या मनुष्याला देव दुरूस्त करतो तो सुखी आहे, म्हणून सर्वशक्तिमानाच्या शिक्षेचा अवमान करु नकोस.
Behold, happy is the man whom God correcteth; Therefore despise not thou the chastening of the Almighty.
For he bruiseth, and bindeth up; He woundeth, and his hands make whole.
In six troubles will he deliver thee; Yea, in seven shall no evil touch thee.
In famine he will redeem thee from death, And in war from the power of the sword.
21 २१ जिभेच्या दुःखदायी वाऱ्यापासून तू झाकला जाशील, आणि विनाश तूझ्यावर येईल तेव्हा तू त्यास भिणार नाहीस.
Thou shalt be safe from the scourge of the tongue, And shalt not be afraid of destruction, when it cometh.
At destruction and famine thou shalt laugh, And of the wild beasts of the land shalt thou not be afraid.
For thou shalt be in league with the stones of the field; Yea, the beasts of the forest shall be at peace with thee.
24 २४ तुला समजेल तुझा तंबू त्याच्यामध्ये सुरक्षित आहे, तू तुझ्या कळपाची पाहणी करशील आणि तुला काही कमतरता आढळणार नाही.
Thou shalt find that thy tent is in peace; Thou shalt visit thy dwelling, and not be disappointed.
Thou shalt see thy descendants numerous, And thine offspring as the grass of the earth.
Thou shalt come to thy grave in full age, As a shock of corn gathered in its season.
27 २७ पाहा, आम्ही या साऱ्यांचा अभ्यास केला आहे आणि ते सर्व खरे आहे. म्हणून तू आमचे ऐक. आणि त्यातून स्वत: साठी काही शिक.”
Lo! this we have searched out; so it is: Hear it, and lay it up in thy mind!
