ईयोब 8
Then Bildad, from [the] Shuah [area], spoke to Job. He said,
2 २ “तू किती वेळपर्यंत असा बोलत राहणार आहेस? तुझे शब्द सोसाट्याच्या वाऱ्यासारखे किती वेळेपर्यंत उडत राहतील.
“Job, how much longer will you talk like this? What you say is [only] hot air.
Almighty God certainly never does [RHQ] what is unfair/unjust. He always does [LIT] what is right/fair.
4 ४ तुझ्या मुलांनी देवाविरुध्द काही पाप केले असेल म्हणून देवाने त्यांना त्यांच्या पापाची शिक्षा केली.
So, it is evident that your children have sinned against him, therefore he has caused them to be punished for evil things that they have done.
But, if you will [now] earnestly request [DOU] Almighty [God] to help you,
and if you are pure and honest/righteous, he will surely do something good for you and reward you by giving your family back to you and enabling you to prosper.
And even though you [think that you] were not very prosperous/wealthy before, during the last part of your life you will become very wealthy.
8 ८ मी तुला विनंती करतो वडिलांच्या वेळेची माहिती विचार, त्यांनी जो शोध लावला तो तुझ्यासाठी लागू करून घे.
“I request you to think about what happened long ago and consider what our ancestors found out.
9 ९ आपण अगदी कालच जन्माला आलो आहोत आणि काहीच माहित नाही, कारण छायेप्रमाणे आपले पृथ्वीतलावरचे दिवस आहेत.
[It seems as though] we were born only yesterday and we know very little [HYP]; our time here on the earth [disappears quickly, like] a shadow [MET].
So, why do you not allow your ancestors to teach you and tell you something? Allow them to tell you from what they learned!
Papyrus can certainly not [RHQ] grow in places where there is no marsh/swamp; reeds certainly cannot [RHQ] flourish/grow where there is no water.
[If they do not have enough water], while they are still blossoming, they wither more quickly than other plants wither.
Those who do not pay attention to what God says are like those [reeds]; godless people stop confidently expecting [that good things will happen to them].
The things they confidently expect to happen do not happen; things they trust [will help them] are [as fragile as] [MET] a spider’s web.
15 १५ तो आपल्या घरावर टेकला असता परंतू ते त्यास आधार देऊ शकणार नाही, त्याने ते पकडून धरले असता ते स्थिर राहायचे नाही.
If they lean against a house (OR, trust in their wealth; OR, lean on a spider web), it does not (endure/protect them) [LIT]; they cling to things [to be protected], but those things do not remain firm.
Godless people [are like plants] [MET] that are watered before the sun rises; their shoots spread all over the gardens.
The roots of those plants twist around piles of stones and cling tightly to rocks.
18 १८ परंतु जर हा व्यक्ती त्या जागेवरून हलवला गेला तर तो नष्ट होतो, मग ती जागा त्यास नाकारुन म्हणेल ‘मी तुला कधी पाहिले नाही.’
But if those plants are pulled out, [it is as though] the place where they were planted says ‘They were never here!’ [And that is what happens to wicked people who do not heed what God says].
Truly, evil people [MET] are not joyful [IRO] for a long time; other people come and take their places.
:So, [I tell you, Job], God will not reject you if you are truly godly/righteous, but he does not help [IDM] evil people.
He will enable you [MTY] to continually laugh and to always shout [joyfully].
But those who hate you will be very ashamed, and the homes of wicked people will disappear.”
