अय्यूब 17
1 मेरो आत्मा नाश पारिएको छ, र मेरो आयु सकिएको छ । चिहान मेरो लागि तयार छ ।
My breath is corrupt, my days are extinct, the graves are ready for me.
2 निश्चय नै गिल्ला गर्नेहरू मसितै छन् । मेरो आँखाले सधैं तिनीहरूको रिसलाई हेर्नुपर्छ ।
Are there not mockers with me? and doth not my eye continue in their provocation?
3 मलाई धरौटी दिनुहोस् । तपाईं आफै मेरो जमानी हुनुहोस् । मलाई मदत गर्नलाई अरू को नै छ र?
Lay down now, put me in a surety with thee; who is he 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 hast hid their heart from understanding: therefore shalt thou not exalt them.
5 इनामको लागि जसले आफ्नो मित्रहरूको बदनामी गर्छ, त्यसका छोराछोरीका आँखा कमजोर हुनेछन् ।
He that speaketh flattery to his friends, even the eyes of his children shall fail.
6 तर उहाँले मलाई मानिसहरूको उखान बनाउनुभएको छ । तिनीहरूले मेरो मुखैमा थुक्छन् ।
He hath made me also a byword of the people; and as one before whom men spit.
7 शोकको कारण मेरो आँखा पनि धमिलो भएको छ । मेरो शरीरका सम्पूर्ण भाग छायाजत्तिकै सुकेका छन् ।
My eye also is dim by reason 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 appalled at this, and the innocent shall stir up himself against the hypocrite.
9 धर्मी मानिस आफ्नो बाटोमा हिंड्नेछ । शुद्ध हात भएकोचाहिं बलियो हुँदै जानेछ ।
The righteous also shall hold on his way, and he that hath clean hands shall be stronger and stronger.
10 तर तिमीहरू सबैले चाहिं फेरि कोसिस गर । तिमीहरूका बिचमा बुद्धिमान् मानिस मैले पाउनेछैनँ ।
But as for you all, do ye return, and come now: for I cannot find one 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 is short because of darkness.
If I wait, the grave is my house: I have made my bed in the darkness. (Sheol h7585)
14 र मैले खाडललाई, 'तँ मेरो बुबा हो,' अनि किरालाई 'तँ मेरी आमा वा बहिनी' हो भनेको छु भने,
I have said to corruption, Thou art my father: to the worm, Thou art my mother, and my sister.
15 तब मेरो आशा खोइ त? कसले मेरो निम्ति कुनै आशा देख्न सक्छ र?
And where is now my hope? as for my hope, who shall see it?
