ယောဘ 15
Then Eliphaz replied to Job:
2 ၂ ပညာရှိသောသူသည် လေနှင့်တူသော အချည်း နှီးစကားကို ပြောသင့်သလော။ မိမိဝမ်းကို အရှေ့လေ နှင့်ပြည့်စေသင့်သလော။
“If you were truly wise [RHQ], you would not have replied to us by claiming that you know a lot; what you are saying is just a lot of hot air [MET].
You should not [RHQ] be saying things that do not benefit anyone, using words that do no one any good.
4 ၄ သင်သည် ဘုရားသခင်ကို ကြောက်ရွံ့ခြင်းအကျင့်၌ အကျိုးမရှိဟု ဆိုလို၏။ ဆိုတောင်းပဌနာပြုရာ ဝတ်ကို ဆီးတားတတ်၏။
[By what you say, ] you show that you do not revere God, and you are hindering people from meditating/thinking about God.
[It is as though] your sins are telling you what to say; you talk like people who will not admit that they are wicked.
6 ၆ ငါသည် သင့်ကိုအပြစ်မတင်၊ သင့်နှုတ်သည် သင့်ကိုအပြစ်တင်၏။ သင့်နှုတ်ခမ်းတို့သည် သင့်တဘက် ၌ သက်သေခံ၏။
Everything that you say [MTY] shows that you should be punished; so, it is not necessary for me to show that.
[“Tell me do you know more than everyone else because you think that] you are the first person who was ever born? [SAR, RHQ] Were you born before the hills [were created]?
Were you listening when God made all his plans? [SAR, RHQ] Or do you think that you are the only person who is wise?
(What do you know that we do not know?/You do not know anything that we do not know.) [RHQ] You do not understand [RHQ] anything that is not also clear to us.
My friends and I are also wise; we acquired [wisdom] from old gray-haired people, from people who were born before your father was born.
God wants to comfort you, and to speak gently/kindly to you; (is that not enough for you/do you need more than that)?
Why do you allow yourself to be (carried away/excited) by your emotions? Why are [you very angry, with the result that] your eyes flash?
You are angry [IDM] with God, and so you [MTY] are criticizing/denouncing him.
14 ၁၄ လူသည်အဘယ်သို့သော သူဖြစ်၍ သန့်ရှင်းနိုင်သနည်း။ မိန်းမဘွားသောသူသည် အဘယ်သို့သော သူဖြစ်၍ ဖြောင့်မတ်နိုင်သနည်း။
“(How can any person, [including you, ] be sinless?/No person, [including you], can be sinless.) [RHQ] (How can anyone on the earth be [completely] righteous?/No one on the earth can be [completely] righteous.) [RHQ]
Hey, God does not even trust his angels; he does not consider even them to be [completely] pure.
16 ၁၆ သို့ဖြစ်လျှင်၊ ရေကိုသောက်သကဲ့သို့ ဒုစရိုက်အပြစ်ကို သောက်လျက်၊ ဆိုးညစ်ရွံ့ရှာဘွယ်သော လူသတ္တဝါ၌ အဘယ်ဆိုဘွယ် ရှိသနည်း။
So, he certainly does not [trust] abominable/disgusting and depraved/corrupt people who do evil things [as easily] as they drink water [MET].
17 ၁၇ ငါ့စကားကို နားထောင်လော့။ တပါးအမျိုးသားနှင့် မရောနှော၊ ကိုယ်အမျိုးတမျိုးတည်းလျှင် မြေကို ပိုင်သော ပညာရှိတို့သည်၊ ဘိုးဘေးလက်ထက်မှစ၍ မထိမ်မဝှက်၊ ပြောဘူးသော အရာ၊ ငါ့ကိုယ်တိုင်မြင်သော အရာကို ငါပြသမည်။
Job, listen to what I will tell you. I will declare to you what I know,
18 ၁၈
things that wise men have told me, truths that their ancestors did not keep hidden.
19 ၁၉
God gave this land to those ancestors, who were truly wise; no one from another country caused them to think wrongly [IDM].
It is wicked people who suffer with great pain all the time that they are alive; that is what happens to those who (oppress/act violently toward) others.
21 ၂၁ သူသည် ကြောက်မက်ဘွယ်သောအသံကို ကြားလျက်နေရ၏။ စည်းစိမ်ကို ခံစားစဉ်တွင်၊ ဖျက်ဆီး သော သူသည် လာတတ်၏။
They constantly hear sounds that terrify them; while they are prospering, bandits attack them.
Wicked people surely know that they will not escape from darkness/death, because [they are sure that someone] is waiting to kill them with a sword.
They wander around, searching for food, saying ‘Where can I find some?’ And they know that they will soon experience disasters.
24 ၂၄ ဆင်းရဲခြင်းဒုက္ခနှင့် နာကြဉ်းခြင်းဝေဒနာတို့သည် ထိုသူကို ချောက်တတ်၏။ စစ်တိုက်ခြင်းငှါ အသင့် နေသော ရှင်ဘုရင်ကဲ့သို့ သူ့ကို နိုင်တတ်၏။
Because they are afraid of those things happening to them, they are afraid and worry that these things will come to them like [the army of] a king comes to attack [their enemies and cause them to suffer] [SIM].
25 ၂၅ အကြောင်းမူကား၊ ထိုသူသည် ဘုရားသခင်၏ အာဏာတော်ကို ဆန်လျက်၊ အနန္တတန်ခိုးရှင်တဘက် ကနေ၍ ကိုယ်ကိုခိုင်ခံ့စေ၏။
[Those things happen to them] because they (shook their fists/dared to fight) against Almighty God, and thought that they were strong enough to defeat him.
They stubbornly [IDM] rush to attack God [as though they were carrying] a strong shield [to protect themselves].
They are so fat [that they are unable to fight].
They will live in cities that have been abandoned, cities which have become a heap of ruins.
But they will not remain rich very long; Everything that they own will be taken from them; their possessions will all disappear.
30 ၃၀ သူသည် မှောင်မိုက်ဘေးနှင့်မလွတ်ရ။ မီးလျှံသည်သူ၏အခက်အလက်တို့ကို လောင်လိမ့်မည်။ ဘုရားသခင်၏ နှုတ်တော်အသက်အားဖြင့် သုတ်သင် ပယ်ရှင်းခြင်းကို ခံရ၏။
They will not escape from the darkness [of death]; they will be like trees whose branches are burned by fire and whose blossoms are blown away by the wind.
Since they are very foolish, with the result that they trust in things that are really worthless, then things that are worthless will be all that they get.
Before they are old, they will wither; they will be like [MET] branches that wither and never become green again.
33 ၃၃ စပျစ်နွယ်ပင်ကဲ့သို့ မိမိ၌ မမှည့်သော အသီးကို ၎င်း၊ သံလွင်ပင်ကဲ့သို့ မိမိအပွင့်ကို၎င်း ချွေရလိမ့်မည်။
They will be like [SIM] vines whose grapes fall off before they are ripe, like olive trees whose blossoms fall off before they produce any fruit.
Wicked/godless people will not have any descendants, and fires will completely burn up the homes of [those who built those homes using] money they received from bribes.
35 ၃၅ ထိုသူတို့သည်မကောင်းသောအကြံကို ပဋိသန္ဓေယူ၍ အနတ္တကိုဘွားတတ်ကြ၏။ သူတို့ဝမ်းထဲ၌မုသာကို ကိုယ်ဝန်ဆောင်တတ်သည်ဟု မြွက်ဆို၏။
They plan to cause trouble and to do evil things, and they are always preparing to deceive people.”
