अय्यूब 14
1 स्त्रीबाट जन्मेको मानिस थोरै दिन बाँच्छ, अनि दुखैदुखले भरिएको हुन्छ ।
Man, that is born of a woman, Is of few days, and full of trouble.
2 ऊ फुलझैं जमिनबाट उम्रिन्छ र काटिन्छ । ऊ छायाझैं भाग्छ, र रहँदैन ।
He cometh forth like a flower, and is cut down: He fleeth also as a shadow, and continueth not.
3 के तपाईंले यीमध्ये कुनैलाई हेर्नुहुन्छ? के तपाईंले मलाई आफूसँगै न्यायमा ल्याउनुहुन्छ?
And dost thou open thine eyes upon such a one, And bringest me into judgment with thee?
4 अशुद्ध कुराबाट कसले शुद्ध कुरा ल्याउन सक्छ र? कसैले सक्दैन ।
Who can bring a clean thing out of an unclean? not one.
5 मानिसको दिनहरू निर्धारित छन् । उसका महिनाहरूका सङ्ख्या तपाईंसितै छन् । तपाईंले उसका सिमाहरू तोक्नुभएको छ, जसलाई उसले नाघ्न सक्दैन ।
Seeing his days are determined, The number of his months is with thee, And thou hast appointed his bounds that he cannot pass;
6 ऊबाट आफ्नो दृष्टि हटाउनुहोस्, यसैले कि उसले विश्राम पाओस्, यसरी उसले सक्छ भने, ज्यालाको मानिस झैं आफ्नो दिनमा रमाउन सकोस् ।
Look away from him, that he may rest, Till he shall accomplish, as a hireling, his day.
7 एउटा रुखको लागि आशा हुन सक्छ । त्यो काटियो भने, त्यो फेरि पलाउन सक्छ, जसको कारणले त्यसका कोमल पालुवा लोप हुँदैनन् ।
For there is hope of a tree, If it be cut down, that it will sprout again, And that the tender branch thereof will not cease.
8 त्यसको जरा जमिनभित्र बुढो हुन्छ, त्यसको फेद जमिनमा मर्छ,
Though the root thereof wax old in the earth, And the stock thereof die in the ground;
9 तापनि त्यसले पानीको ओस मात्र पायो भने, त्यो फेरि पलाउँछ, र रुखले झैं हाँगाहरू फिंजाउँछ ।
Yet through the scent of water it will bud, And put forth boughs like a plant.
10 तर मानिसचाहिं मर्छ । त्यो कमजोर हुन्छ । वास्तवमा मानिसले सास फेर्न छोड्छ र फेरि ऊ कहाँ हुन्छ?
But man dieth, and is laid low: Yea, man giveth up the ghost, and where is he?
11 जसरी एउटा तलाउबाट पानी लोप हुन्छ, र जसरी नदीको पानी घट्छ र सुक्छ,
[As] the waters fail from the sea, And the river wasteth and drieth up;
12 त्यसरी नै मानिसहरू ढल्किन्छन्, र फेरि उठ्दैनन् । आकाशहरू लोप नभएसम्म तिनीहरू ब्युँझने छैनन्, न त तिनीहरू आफ्ना निद्राबाट उठ्नेछन् ।
So man lieth down and riseth not: Till the heavens be no more, they shall not awake, Nor be roused out of their sleep.
13 दुखबाट टाढा तपाईंले मलाई पातालमा लुकाउनुहुन्छ, र तपाईंको रिस नमरेसम्म तपाईंले मलाई गुप्तमा राख्नुहुन्छ, र त्यहाँ म रहने समय तपाईंले तोक्नुहुन्छ, र मलाई याद गर्नुहुन्छ । (Sheol h7585)
Oh that thou wouldest hide me in Sheol, That thou wouldest keep me secret, until thy wrath be past, That thou wouldest appoint me a set time, and remember me! (Sheol h7585)
14 एक जना मानिस मर्यो भने, के ऊ फेरि बाँच्नेछ र? त्यसो हो भने, मेरो छुटकारा नआएसम्म, मेरा सबै दुखको समयमा म त्यहाँ पर्खेर बिताउन चाहान्छु ।
If a man die, shall he live [again]? All the days of my warfare would I wait, Till my release should come.
15 तपाईंले मलाई बोलाउनुहुन्छ, र म जवाफ दिन्छु । आफ्नो हातको कामको लागि तपाईंको इच्छा हुन्छ ।
Thou wouldest call, and I would answer thee: Thou wouldest have a desire to the work of thy hands.
16 तपाईंले मेरा पाइला गन्नुहुन्छ, र वास्ता गर्नुहुन्छ । तपाईंले मेरो पापको लेखा राख्नुहुन्न ।
But now thou numberest my steps: Dost thou not watch over my sin?
17 मेरो अपराध थैलोमा बन्द गरिन्छ । तपाईंले मेरो अधर्म ढाक्नुहुन्छ ।
My transgression is sealed up in a bag, And thou fastenest up mine iniquity.
18 तर पहाडहरू खस्छन् र कतै पुग्दैनन्, चट्टानहरू आफ्नो ठाउँबाट हटेर जान्छन्,
But the mountain falling cometh to nought; And the rock is removed out of its place;
19 नदीहरूले ढुङ्गाहरूलाई खियाउँछन्, तिनीहरूमा भएको बाढीले जमिनको धूलो बगाउँछन्। त्यसरी नै तपाईंले मानिसको आशालाई नाश गर्नुहुन्छ ।
The waters wear the stones; The overflowings thereof wash away the dust of the earth: So thou destroyest the hope of man.
20 तपाईंले सधैं उसलाई हराउनुहुन्छ, र ऊ मर्छ । तपाईंले उसको अनुहारको बद्लनुहुन्छ, र उसलाई मर्न दिनुहुन्छ ।
Thou prevailest for ever against him, and he passeth; Thou changest his countenance, and sendest him away.
21 उसका छोराहरूको आदर भयो कि भएन भनेर उसलाई जान्दैन । र तिनीहरू होच्याइएका छन् कि छैन् उसले त्यो देख्दैन ।
His sons come to honor, and he knoweth it not; And they are brought low, but he perceiveth it not of them.
22 उसले आफ्नो शरीरको दुखलाई अनुभव गर्छ, र उसले आफ्नै निम्ति शोक गर्छ ।
But his flesh upon him hath pain, And his soul within him mourneth.
