ယောဘ 20
And Zophar the Naamathite answereth and saith: —
Therefore my thoughts cause me to answer, And because of my sensations in me.
The chastisement of my shame I hear, And the spirit of mine understanding Doth cause me to answer:
This hast thou known from antiquity? Since the placing of man on earth?
5 ၅ ဆိုးသောသူသည်ကြာမြင့်စွာကာလ မဝါကြွားရ ကြောင်းကို၎င်း၊ အဓမ္မလူသည် ခဏသာဝမ်းမြောက် ကြောင်းကို၎င်း မသိသလော။
That the singing of the wicked [is] short, And the joy of the profane for a moment,
Though his excellency go up to the heavens, And his head against a cloud he strike —
7 ၇ မိမိမစင်ကဲ့သို့အစဉ်ပျက်ရလိမ့်မည်။ သူ့ကို မြင်ဘူးသော သူတို့က၊ ထိုသူသည် အဘယ်မှာရှိသနည်းဟု မေးကြလိမ့်မည်။
As his own dung for ever he doth perish, His beholders say: 'Where [is] he?'
As a dream he fleeth, and they find him not, And he is driven away as a vision of the night,
The eye hath not seen him, and addeth not. And not again doth his place behold him.
His sons do the poor oppress, And his hands give back his wealth.
11 ၁၁ သူ၏အရိုးတို့သည် ပျိုသောအရွယ်၏ အရှိန် နှင့်ပြည့်စုံသော်လည်း၊ သူနှင့်တကွ မြေမှုန့်၌ အိပ်ရ ကြလိမ့်မည်။
His bones have been full of his youth, And with him on the dust it lieth down.
Though he doth sweeten evil in his mouth, Doth hide it under his tongue,
Hath pity on it, and doth not forsake it, And keep it back in the midst of his palate,
His food in his bowels is turned, The bitterness of asps [is] in his heart.
Wealth he hath swallowed, and doth vomit it. From his belly God driveth it out.
Gall of asps he sucketh, Slay him doth the tongue of a viper.
He looketh not on rivulets, Flowing of brooks of honey and butter.
18 ၁၈ မိမိလုပ်၍ရသောဥစ္စာကို မိမိမသုံးဘဲ ပြန်ပေး ရ၏။ ပြန်ပေးရသော ဥစ္စာဖြစ်သောကြောင့် အားရခြင်း မရှိရ။
He is giving back [what] he laboured for, And doth not consume [it]; As a bulwark [is] his exchange, and he exults not.
For he oppressed — he forsook the poor, A house he hath taken violently away, And he doth not build it.
For he hath not known ease in his belly. With his desirable thing he delivereth not himself.
There is not a remnant to his food, Therefore his good doth not stay.
In the fulness of his sufficiency he is straitened. Every perverse hand doth meet him.
23 ၂၃ သို့သော်လည်း သူသည်ဝစွာစားရ၏။ ဘုရားသခင်သည် အမျက်တော်အရှိန်ကို လွှတ်၍သူစားစရာဘို့ အမျက်တော် မိုဃ်းကို ရွာစေတော်မူမည်။
It cometh to pass, at the filling of his belly, He sendeth forth against him The fierceness of His anger, Yea, He raineth on him in his eating.
He fleeth from an iron weapon, Pass through him doth a bow of brass.
25 ၂၅ မြှားကိုနှုတ်လျှင် မိမိကိုယ်ထဲက ထွက်လာ၏။ အရောင်တောက် သောထားသည်သူ၏ သည်းခြေထဲက ထွက်လာ၍၊ သူသည် မိန်းမောတွေဝေလျက် နေရ၏။
One hath drawn, And it cometh out from the body, And a glittering weapon from his gall proceedeth. On him [are] terrors.
26 ၂၆ ခပ်သိမ်းသောဘေးတို့သည် သူ့အဘို့ သိုထား လျက်ရှိကြ၏။ လူမမွေးသောမီးသည် သူ့ကိုလောင်လိမ့် မည်။ သူ၏နေရာ၌ ကြွင်းသမျှသော အရာတို့ကို လောင် လိမ့်မည်။
All darkness is hid for his treasures, Consume him doth a fire not blown, Broken is the remnant in his tent.
Reveal do the heavens his iniquity, And earth is raising itself against him.
Remove doth the increase of his house, Poured forth in a day of His anger.
29 ၂၉ ထိုသို့သောဆုလပ်ကို ဘုရားသခင်သည် လူဆိုး အားပေးတော်မူ၏။ ထိုသို့သောအမွေဥစ္စာကို ဘုရား သခင် ခွဲဝေစီရင်တော်မူသည်ဟု မြွက်ဆို၏။
This [is] the portion of a wicked man from God. And an inheritance appointed him by God.
