1 स्‍त्रीबाट जन्मेको मानिस थोरै दिन बाँच्‍छ, अनि दुखैदुखले भरिएको हुन्छ ।
Man born of a woman is short of days, and sated with harrowing trouble.
2 ऊ फुलझैं जमिनबाट उम्रिन्‍छ र काटिन्छ । ऊ छायाझैं भाग्छ, र रहँदैन ।
Like a flower he cometh forth, and is cut down: and he fleeth like a shadow, and remaineth not.
3 के तपाईंले यीमध्ये कुनैलाई हेर्नुहुन्छ? के तपाईंले मलाई आफूसँगै न्यायमा ल्याउनुहुन्छ?
And yet on such a one dost thou open thy eyes, and me thou bringest into judgment with thee?
4 अशुद्ध कुराबाट कसले शुद्ध कुरा ल्याउन सक्छ र? कसैले सक्दैन ।
Who can make a clean thing out of an unclean? not one [thing].
5 मानिसको दिनहरू निर्धारित छन् । उसका महिनाहरूका सङ्ख्या तपाईंसितै छन् । तपाईंले उसका सिमाहरू तोक्‍नुभएको छ, जसलाई उसले नाघ्न सक्दैन ।
Seeing that his days are determined, the number of his months are [fixed] with thee, that thou hast set his bounds which he cannot pass:
6 ऊबाट आफ्नो दृष्‍टि हटाउनुहोस्, यसैले कि उसले विश्राम पाओस्, यसरी उसले सक्‍छ भने, ज्यालाको मानिस झैं आफ्नो दिनमा रमाउन सकोस् ।
Turn thyself from him that he may recover from his pain, and be able to enjoy like a hired laborer 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 for the tree: if it be cut down, it may still sprout again, while its young shoot will not cease.
8 त्‍यसको जरा जमिनभित्र बुढो हुन्‍छ, त्‍यसको फेद जमिनमा मर्छ,
If even its root become old in the earth, and its stock die in the dust:
9 तापनि त्‍यसले पानीको ओस मात्र पायो भने, त्यो फेरि पलाउँछ, र रुखले झैं हाँगाहरू फिंजाउँछ ।
Yet through the scent of water will it flourish [again], and produce boughs as though It were newly planted.
10 तर मानिसचाहिं मर्छ । त्यो कमजोर हुन्छ । वास्तवमा मानिसले सास फेर्न छोड्छ र फेरि ऊ कहाँ हुन्छ?
But man dieth, and lieth powerless: yea, the son of earth departeth—and where is he?
11 जसरी एउटा तलाउबाट पानी लोप हुन्छ, र जसरी नदीको पानी घट्छ र सुक्छ,
The waters run off from the sea, and the river faileth and drieth up:
12 त्यसरी नै मानिसहरू ढल्‍किन्छन्, र फेरि उठ्दैनन् । आकाशहरू लोप नभएसम्म तिनीहरू ब्युँझने छैनन्, न त तिनीहरू आफ्‍ना निद्राबाट उठ्नेछन् ।
So doth man lie down, and riseth not: till the heavens be no more, they will not awake, and will not 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 who would grant that thou mightest hide me in the nether world, that thou mightest conceal me, until thy wrath be appeased, that thou mightest set for me a fixed time, and remember me then! (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 ।
Or, when a man dieth, will he live again? all the days of my time of service would I then wait, till [the hour of] my release were come.
15 तपाईंले मलाई बोलाउनुहुन्‍छ, र म जवाफ दिन्‍छु । आफ्‍नो हातको कामको लागि तपाईंको इच्छा हुन्‍छ ।
Do thou call, and I will truly answer thee: have a desire for the work of thy hands.
16 तपाईंले मेरा पाइला गन्‍नुहुन्‍छ, र वास्ता गर्नुहुन्‍छ । तपाईंले मेरो पापको लेखा राख्‍नुहुन्‍न ।
Yet now thou numberest my steps: and thou waitest not with [the punishment of] my sin.
17 मेरो अपराध थैलोमा बन्‍द गरिन्‍छ । तपाईंले मेरो अधर्म ढाक्‍नुहुन्‍छ ।
Sealed up in a bag is my transgression, and thou yet addest to my iniquity.
18 तर पहाडहरू खस्‍छन् र कतै पुग्‍दैनन्, चट्टानहरू आफ्नो ठाउँबाट हटेर जान्‍छन्,
But truly a falling mountain will crumble, and [even] a rock is moved out of its place.
19 नदीहरूले ढुङ्गाहरूलाई खियाउँछन्, तिनीहरूमा भएको बाढीले जमिनको धूलो बगाउँछन्। त्‍यसरी नै तपाईंले मानिसको आशालाई नाश गर्नुहुन्छ ।
The water weareth out stones; thou sweepest away their fragments [like] the dust of the earth: and so thou destroyest the hope of man.
20 तपाईंले सधैं उसलाई हराउनुहुन्छ, र ऊ मर्छ । तपाईंले उसको अनुहारको बद्लनुहुन्छ, र उसलाई मर्न दिनुहुन्छ ।
Thou assailest him with might without ceasing, till he passeth away: thou changest his countenance, and sendest him off.
21 उसका छोराहरूको आदर भयो कि भएन भनेर उसलाई जान्‍दैन । र तिनीहरू होच्याइएका छन् कि छैन् उसले त्‍यो देख्दैन ।
His children acquire honor, but he knoweth it not: and they are esteemed little, but he perceiveth nothing of them.
22 उसले आफ्नो शरीरको दुखलाई अनुभव गर्छ, र उसले आफ्नै निम्‍ति शोक गर्छ ।
But his body. on him, feeleth pain, and his soul will mourn for him.
