< अय्यूब 13 >

1 हेर्नुहोस्, मेरो आँखाले यो सबै देखेका छन् । मेरो कानले यसलाई सुनेको छ, र बुझेको छ ।
Behold, mine eye has seen these things, and mine ear has heard [them].
2 तपाईंहरू जे जान्‍नुहुन्छ, म त्यो जान्दछु । म तपाईंहरूभन्दा कम छैनँ ।
And I know all that you too know; and I have not less understanding than you.
3 तापनि, बरु म सर्वशक्तिमान्‌सित बोल्‍छु । म परमेश्‍वरसित तर्क गर्ने इच्छा गर्छु ।
Nevertheless I will speak to the Lord, and I will reason before him, if he will.
4 तर तपाईंहरू झुटले सत्यलाई लुकाउनुहुन्छ । तपाईंहरू सबै जना तुच्‍छ वैद्यहरू हुनुहुन्छ ।
But you are all bad physicians, and healers of diseases.
5 तपाईंहरू सबैजना सँगै चूप लाग्‍नुहोस् । त्यो नै तपाईंहरूको बुद्धि हुन्‍छ ।
But would that you were silent, and it would be wisdom to you in the end.
6 अब मेरो आफ्नै तर्क सुन्‍नुहोस् । मेरो आफ्नै ओठको बिन्तीलाई सुन्‍नुहोस् ।
But hear you the reasoning of my mouth, and attend to the judgment of my lips.
7 परमेश्‍वरको लागि तपाईंहरू अधार्मिकताले बोल्नुहुनेछ र? अनि तपाईंहरू उहाँको लागि छलले कुरा गर्नुहुनेछ र?
Do you not speak before the Lord, and utter deceit before him?
8 उहाँलाई तपाईंहरू पक्षपात गर्नुहुनेछ र? परमेश्‍वरको लागि तपाईंहरू मुद्दाको बहस गर्नुहुनेछ र?
Or will you draw back? nay do, you yourselves be judges.
9 उहाँले तपाईंहरूको खोजी गर्नुहुँदा तपाईंहरूको भलो हुनेछ त? तपाईंहरूले मानिसहरूलाई छल गरेझैं उहाँलाई छल गर्न सक्‍नुहुन्छ र?
For [it were] well if he would thoroughly search you: for though doing all things [in your power] you should attach yourselves to him,
10 तपाईंहरूले गुप्‍तमा पक्षपात गर्नुभयो भने, उहाँले निश्‍चय नै तपाईंहरूलाई हप्काउनुहुन्‍छ ।
he will not reprove you at all the less: but if moreover you should secretly respect persons,
11 उहाँको वैभवले तपाईंहरूलाई आतङ्कित पार्दैन र? उहाँको डर तपाईंहरूमाथि पर्दैन र?
shall not his whirlpool sweep you round, and terror from him fall upon you?
12 तपाईंहरूका सम्झनलायक भनाइहरू खरानीले बनेका उखानहरू हुन् । तपाईंहरूका सुरक्षा माटोले बनेका सुरक्षा हुन् ।
And your glorying shall prove in the end to you like ashes, and your body [like a body] of clay.
13 तपाईंहरू चूप लाग्‍नुहोस्, यसैले कि म बोल्‍न सकूँ । मलाई जे हुनु छ होस् ।
Be silent, that I may speak, and cease from [mine] anger,
14 म आफ्नो जीवनलाई खतरामा हाल्नेछु । म आफ्‍नो जीवनलाई आफ्‍नो हातमा लिनेछु ।
while I may take my flesh in my teeth, and put my life in my hand.
15 हेर्नुहोस्, उहाँले मलाई मार्नुहुन्‍छ भने, ममा कुनै आशा बाँकी रहनेछैन । तापनि उहाँको सामु म आफ्‍ना मार्गको बचाउ गर्नेछु ।
Though the Mighty One should lay hand upon me, forasmuch as he has begun, verily I will speak, and plead before him.
16 यो नै मेरो छुटकाराको कारण हुनेछ, किनकि ईश्‍वरहीन व्यक्ति उहाँको सामु आउँदैन ।
And this shall turn to me for salvation; for fraud shall have no entrance before him.
17 हे परमेश्‍वर, मेरो कुरा ध्‍यानले सुन्‍नुहोस् । मेरो घोषणा तपाईंका कानमा पुगोस् ।
Hear, hear you my words, for I will declare in your hearing.
18 हेर्नुहोस्, आफ्‍नो बचाउ मेलै गरेको छु । म निर्दोष छु भनी म जान्‍दछु ।
Behold, I am near my judgment: I know that I shall appear evidently just.
19 मेरो विरुद्धमा अदालतमा बहस कसले गर्छ? तपाईंहरू त्यसो गर्न आउनुभयो र म गलत प्रमाणित भएँ भने, तब म चुप रहन्‍छु, र आफ्‍नो जीवन दिन्‍छु ।
For who is he that shall plead with me, that I should now be silent, and expire?
20 हे परमेश्‍वर, मेरो निम्‍ति दुईवटा कुरा मात्र गर्नुहोस्, अनि म आफूलाई तपाईंको सामुबाट लुकाउनेछैनँ ।
But grant me two things: then I will not hide myself from your face.
21 आफ्‍नो अत्याचारको हात मबाट निकाल्नुहोस्, अनि तपाईंका त्रासहरूले मलाई नतर्साउनुहोस् ।
Withhold [your] hand from me: and let not your fear terrify me.
22 तब मलाई बोलाउनुहोस्, र म जवाफ दिनेछु । वा तपाईंसित म बोल्‍नेछु र तपाईंले जवाफ दिनुहोस् ।
Then shall you call, and I will listen to you: or you shall speak, and I will give you an answer.
23 मेरा अधर्म र पाप कति धेरै छन्? मेरो अपराध र मेरो पापको जानकारी मलाई दिनुहोस् ।
How many are my sins and my transgressions? teach me what they are.
24 आफ्नो अनुहार मबाट तपाईं किन लुकाउनुहुन्‍छ, अनि मलाई आफ्नो शत्रुजस्‍तो व्यवहार किन गर्नुहुन्छ?
Therefore hide you yourself from me, and deem me your enemy?
25 तपाईंले एउटा उडेको पातलाई सताउनुहुन्‍छ र? तपाईं सुकेका झारपातको पछि जानुहुन्‍छ र?
Will you be startled [at me], as [at] a leaf shaken by the wind? or will you set yourself against me as against grass borne upon the breeze?
26 किनकि मेरो विरुद्धमा तपाईंले तिक्‍त कुराहरू लेख्‍नुहुन्छ । मेरो युवावस्थाका अधर्म प्राप्‍त गर्ने तपाईंले मलाई बनाउनुहुन्छ ।
for you have written evil things against me, and you have compassed me with the sins of my youth.
27 तपाईंले मेरो खुट्टालाई ठिंगुरोमा हाल्नुहुन्छ । तपाईंले मेरा सबै मार्गलाई नजिकबाट हेर्नुहुन्छ । मेरो खुट्टाको पैतालाले टेकेको जमिनलाई तपाईंले जाँच्‍नुहुन्छ ।
And you have placed my foot in the stocks; and you have watched all my works, and have penetrated my heels.
28 यद्यपि म खेर जाने सडेगलेको कुराजस्‍तै, किराहरूले खाएको एउटा वस्‍त्रजस्‍तै छु ।
[I am as] that which waxes old like a bottle, or like a moth-eaten garment.
