अय्यूब 17
1 मेरो आत्मा नाश पारिएको छ, र मेरो आयु सकिएको छ । चिहान मेरो लागि तयार छ ।
My spirit is consumed, my days are extinct, the grave is ready for me.
2 निश्चय नै गिल्ला गर्नेहरू मसितै छन् । मेरो आँखाले सधैं तिनीहरूको रिसलाई हेर्नुपर्छ ।
Surely there are mockers with me, and my eye dwells upon their provocation.
3 मलाई धरौटी दिनुहोस् । तपाईं आफै मेरो जमानी हुनुहोस् । मलाई मदत गर्नलाई अरू को नै छ र?
Give now a pledge, be surety for me with thyself. Who is there that will strike hands with me?
4 किनकि हे परमेश्वर, तपाईंले तिनीहरूका हृदयको समझलाई बन्द गर्नुभएको छ । त्यसकारण तपाईंले तिनीहरूलाई मभन्दा माथि उचाल्नुहुन्न ।
For thou have hid their heart from understanding. Therefore thou shall not exalt them.
5 इनामको लागि जसले आफ्नो मित्रहरूको बदनामी गर्छ, त्यसका छोराछोरीका आँखा कमजोर हुनेछन् ।
He who denounces his friends for a prey, even the eyes of his sons shall fail.
6 तर उहाँले मलाई मानिसहरूको उखान बनाउनुभएको छ । तिनीहरूले मेरो मुखैमा थुक्छन् ।
But he has made me a byword of the people, and they spit in my face.
7 शोकको कारण मेरो आँखा पनि धमिलो भएको छ । मेरो शरीरका सम्पूर्ण भाग छायाजत्तिकै सुकेका छन् ।
My eye also is dim because of sorrow, and all my members are as a shadow.
8 यसले सोझा मानिसहरूलाई अलमलमा पार्नेछन् । निर्दोष मानिसले आफैलाई ईश्वरहीन मानिसहरूको विरुद्धमा सुर्याउनेछ ।
Upright men shall be astonished at this, and the innocent shall stir himself up against the profane.
9 धर्मी मानिस आफ्नो बाटोमा हिंड्नेछ । शुद्ध हात भएकोचाहिं बलियो हुँदै जानेछ ।
Yet the righteous shall hold on his way. And he who has clean hands shall grow stronger and stronger.
10 तर तिमीहरू सबैले चाहिं फेरि कोसिस गर । तिमीहरूका बिचमा बुद्धिमान् मानिस मैले पाउनेछैनँ ।
But as for you all, come on now again, and I shall not find a wise man among you.
11 मेरा दिन बितिसके । मेरा योजनाहरू चकनाचूर भए, अनि मेरो हृदयको इच्छा पनि त्यस्तै भयो ।
My days are past. My purposes are broken off, even the thoughts of my heart.
12 यी मानिसहरू, यी गिल्ला गर्नेले रातलाई दिनमा बद्लन्छन् । उज्यालो अँध्यारको नजिकै छ ।
They change the night into day. The light, they say, is near to the darkness.
If I look for Sheol as my house, if I have spread my couch in the darkness, (Sheol h7585)
14 र मैले खाडललाई, 'तँ मेरो बुबा हो,' अनि किरालाई 'तँ मेरी आमा वा बहिनी' हो भनेको छु भने,
if I have said to corruption, Thou are my father, to the worm, My mother, and my sister,
15 तब मेरो आशा खोइ त? कसले मेरो निम्ति कुनै आशा देख्न सक्छ र?
where then is my hope? And as for my hope, who shall see it?
