अय्यूब 14
1 स्त्रीबाट जन्मेको मानिस थोरै दिन बाँच्छ, अनि दुखैदुखले भरिएको हुन्छ ।
As for man, the son of woman, his days are short and full of trouble.
2 ऊ फुलझैं जमिनबाट उम्रिन्छ र काटिन्छ । ऊ छायाझैं भाग्छ, र रहँदैन ।
He comes out like a flower, and is cut down: he goes in flight like a shade, and is never seen again.
3 के तपाईंले यीमध्ये कुनैलाई हेर्नुहुन्छ? के तपाईंले मलाई आफूसँगै न्यायमा ल्याउनुहुन्छ?
Is it on such a one as this that your eyes are fixed, with the purpose of judging him?
4 अशुद्ध कुराबाट कसले शुद्ध कुरा ल्याउन सक्छ र? कसैले सक्दैन ।
If only a clean thing might come out of an unclean! But it is not possible.
5 मानिसको दिनहरू निर्धारित छन् । उसका महिनाहरूका सङ्ख्या तपाईंसितै छन् । तपाईंले उसका सिमाहरू तोक्नुभएको छ, जसलाई उसले नाघ्न सक्दैन ।
If his days are ordered, and you have knowledge of the number of his months, having given him a fixed limit past which he may not go;
6 ऊबाट आफ्नो दृष्टि हटाउनुहोस्, यसैले कि उसले विश्राम पाओस्, यसरी उसले सक्छ भने, ज्यालाको मानिस झैं आफ्नो दिनमा रमाउन सकोस् ।
Let your eyes be turned away from him, and take your hand from him, so that he may have pleasure at the end of his day, like a servant working for payment.
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 is cut down, it will come to life again, and its branches will not come to an end.
8 त्यसको जरा जमिनभित्र बुढो हुन्छ, त्यसको फेद जमिनमा मर्छ,
Though its root may be old in the earth, and its cut-off end may be dead in the dust;
9 तापनि त्यसले पानीको ओस मात्र पायो भने, त्यो फेरि पलाउँछ, र रुखले झैं हाँगाहरू फिंजाउँछ ।
Still, at the smell of water, it will make buds, and put out branches like a young plant.
10 तर मानिसचाहिं मर्छ । त्यो कमजोर हुन्छ । वास्तवमा मानिसले सास फेर्न छोड्छ र फेरि ऊ कहाँ हुन्छ?
But man comes to his death and is gone: he gives up his spirit, and where is he?
11 जसरी एउटा तलाउबाट पानी लोप हुन्छ, र जसरी नदीको पानी घट्छ र सुक्छ,
The waters go from a pool, and a river becomes waste and dry;
12 त्यसरी नै मानिसहरू ढल्किन्छन्, र फेरि उठ्दैनन् । आकाशहरू लोप नभएसम्म तिनीहरू ब्युँझने छैनन्, न त तिनीहरू आफ्ना निद्राबाट उठ्नेछन् ।
So man goes down to his last resting-place and comes not again: till the heavens come to an end, they will not be awake or come 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)
If only you would keep me safe in the underworld, putting me in a secret place till your wrath is past, giving me a fixed time when I might come to your memory again! (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 death takes a man, will he come to life again? All the days of my trouble I would be waiting, till the time came for me to be free.
15 तपाईंले मलाई बोलाउनुहुन्छ, र म जवाफ दिन्छु । आफ्नो हातको कामको लागि तपाईंको इच्छा हुन्छ ।
At the sound of your voice I would give an answer, and you would have a desire for the work of your hands.
16 तपाईंले मेरा पाइला गन्नुहुन्छ, र वास्ता गर्नुहुन्छ । तपाईंले मेरो पापको लेखा राख्नुहुन्न ।
For now my steps are numbered by you, and my sin is not overlooked.
17 मेरो अपराध थैलोमा बन्द गरिन्छ । तपाईंले मेरो अधर्म ढाक्नुहुन्छ ।
My wrongdoing is corded up in a bag, and my sin is shut up safe.
18 तर पहाडहरू खस्छन् र कतै पुग्दैनन्, चट्टानहरू आफ्नो ठाउँबाट हटेर जान्छन्,
But truly a mountain falling comes to dust, and a rock is moved from its place;
19 नदीहरूले ढुङ्गाहरूलाई खियाउँछन्, तिनीहरूमा भएको बाढीले जमिनको धूलो बगाउँछन्। त्यसरी नै तपाईंले मानिसको आशालाई नाश गर्नुहुन्छ ।
The stones are crushed small by the force of the waters; the dust of the earth is washed away by their overflowing: and so you put an end to the hope of man.
20 तपाईंले सधैं उसलाई हराउनुहुन्छ, र ऊ मर्छ । तपाईंले उसको अनुहारको बद्लनुहुन्छ, र उसलाई मर्न दिनुहुन्छ ।
You overcome him for ever, and he is gone; his face is changed in death, and you send 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 honour, and he has no knowledge of it; they are made low, but he is not conscious of it.
22 उसले आफ्नो शरीरको दुखलाई अनुभव गर्छ, र उसले आफ्नै निम्ति शोक गर्छ ।
Only his flesh still has pain, and his soul is sad.
