< अय्यूब 18 >

1 तब बिल्दद शुहीले जवाफ दिए र भने,
And Bildad the Shuhite answered and said,
2 “आफ्नो कुरा तपाईं कहिले बन्द गर्नुहुन्छ? विचार गर्नुहोस्, र त्यसपछि हामी बोल्नेछौं ।
How long will ye hunt for words? Be intelligent, and then we will speak.
3 तपाईंको दृष्‍टिमा हामीलाई किन जङ्गली पशुहरू जस्‍तै मूर्ख छौं?
Wherefore are we counted as beasts, and reputed stupid in your sight?
4 तपाईंले आफ्नो रिसमा आफैलाई छिया-छिया पार्नुहुन्छ, के तपाईंको निम्‍ति पृथ्वीलाई त्यागिदिने? वा चट्टानहरूलाई तिनीहरूका ठाउँबाट हटाइदिने?
Thou that tearest thyself in thine anger, shall the earth be forsaken for thee? and shall the rock be removed out of its place?
5 वास्तवमा दुष्‍ट व्यक्तिको बत्ती निभाइनेछ । उसको आगोको ज्वाला बल्नेछैन ।
Yea, the light of the wicked shall be put out, and the flame of his fire shall not shine.
6 उसको पालमा ज्योति नै अँध्यारो हुनेछ । ऊमाथि रहेको उसको बत्ती निभाइनेछ ।
The light shall become dark in his tent, and his lamp over him shall be put out.
7 उसको शक्तिका पाइलाहरू छोटा बनाइनेछन् । उसका आफ्नै योजनाहरूले उसलाई तल पार्नेछन् ।
The steps of his strength shall be straitened, and his own counsel shall cast him down.
8 किनकि उसको आफ्नै खुट्टाले उसलाई जालमा फल्‍नेछ । ऊ खल्‍डोतिर भौंतारिंदै जानेछ ।
For he is sent into the net by his own feet, and he walketh on the meshes;
9 पासोले त्यसलाई कुर्कुच्‍चोमा समात्‍ने छ । जालले त्यसलाई पसाउनेछ ।
The gin taketh [him] by the heel, the snare layeth hold on him;
10 उसको लागि जमिनमा एउटा पासो लुकाइएको छ । अनि एउटा पासोले उसलाई समात्‍नेछ ।
A cord is hidden for him in the ground, and his trap in the way.
11 त्रासहरूले चारैतिरबाट उसलाई डरमा पार्नेछन् । तिनले उसलाई पछिपछि खेद्‍नेछन् ।
Terrors make him afraid on every side, and chase him at his footsteps.
12 उसको धन-सम्पत्तिले भोकमा पुर्‍याउनेछ, र विपत्तिले उसको छेउमै पर्खिनेछ ।
His strength is hunger-bitten, and calamity is ready at his side.
13 उसको शरीरका अंगहरू नष्‍ट पारिनेछन् । वास्तवमा, मृत्युको जेठो सन्तानले उसका अंगहरू निल्नेछ ।
The firstborn of death devoureth the members of his body; it will devour his members.
14 आफ्‍नो पालको सुरक्षाबाट उसलाई घिस्‍याइन्‍छ, र त्रासको राजाकहाँ लगिन्‍छ ।
His confidence shall be rooted out of his tent, and it shall lead him away to the king of terrors:
15 अपरिचित मानिसहरूले उसको घरभित्र गन्धक छरेको देखेपछि, तिनीहरू उसको पालमा बस्‍ने छैनन् ।
They who are none of his shall dwell in his tent; brimstone shall be showered upon his habitation:
16 उसका जराहरू तलतिरका नै सुक्‍नेछन् । माथिको उसको हाँगा काटिनेछ ।
His roots shall be dried up beneath, and above shall his branch be cut off;
17 पृथ्वीबाट उसको सम्झना लुप्‍त हुनेछ । सडकमा उसको कुनै नाउँ हुनेछैन ।
His remembrance shall perish from the earth, and he shall have no name on the pasture-grounds.
18 उसलाई उज्यालोबाट अँध्यारोमा धपाइनेछ, र यस संसारबाट लखेटिनेछ ।
He is driven from light into darkness, and chased out of the world.
19 उसका मानिसका बिचमा उसको छोरो वा नाति हुनेछैन, न त ऊ बसेको ठाउँमा कुनै आफन्त हुनेछ ।
He hath neither son nor grandson among his people, nor any remaining in the places of his sojourn.
20 एक दिन उसलाई जे हुन्छ, त्यसमा पश्‍चिममा बस्‍नेहरू मानिसहरू आतङ्कित हुनेछन् भने, पूर्वमा बस्‍नेहरू त्‍यसमा त्रसित हुनेछन् ।
They that come after shall be astonished at his day, as they that went before [them] were affrighted.
21 निश्‍चय नै अधर्मी मानिसहरूका घरहरू यस्तै हुन्‍छन् । परमेश्‍वरलाई नचिन्‍नेहरूका ठाउँहरू यस्तै हुने छन् ।
Surely, such are the dwellings of the unrighteous man, and such the place of him that knoweth not God.
