अय्यूब 19
1 तब अय्यूबले जवाफ दिए र भने,
But Job answered by saying:
2 “कहिलेसम्म तपाईंहरूले मलाई दुःख दिनुहुन्छ, र वचनले मलाई टुक्राटुक्रा पार्नुहुन्छ?
How long will you afflict my soul and wear me down with words?
3 यी दस पटक तपाईंहरूले मेरो अपमान गर्नुभएको छ । तपाईंहरूले मलाई कठोरतापूर्वक व्यवहार गरे पनि तपाईंहरू लाज मान्नुहुन्न ।
So, ten times you confound me and are not ashamed to oppress me.
4 मैले गल्ती गरेको कुरा वास्तवमा साँचो हो भने, मेरो गल्ती मेरो आफ्नै सरोकारको कुरो हो ।
Now, of course, if I have been ignorant, my ignorance will be with me.
5 तपाईंहरूले आफूलाई मभन्दा माथि उचाल्नुहुन्छ, र मेरो तुच्छता मेरै विरुद्धमा प्रयोग गर्नुहुन्छ भने,
But you have risen up against me, and you accuse me to my disgrace.
6 तब तपाईंहरूले जान्नुपर्छ, परमेश्वरले मेरो हानि गर्नुभएको र मलाई आफ्नो पासोमा पार्नुभएको छ।
At least now you should understand that God has not afflicted me with a balanced judgment, though he has encompassed me with his scourges.
7 हेर्नुहोस्, “हिंसा” भनेर म कराउँछु, तर मैले जवाफ पाउँदिन । मदतको लागि म पुकार्छु, तर त्यहाँ निष्पक्ष व्यवहार हुँदैन ।
Behold, I will cry out, enduring violence, and no one will hear. I will announce loudly, but there is no one who may judge.
8 मेरो बाटोमा उहाँले पर्खाल लगाउनुभएको छ, यसैले म जान सक्दिनँ, अनि उहाँले मेरो मार्गमा अन्धकार राख्नुभएको छ ।
He has hemmed in my path, and I cannot pass; he has added darkness to my difficult path.
9 उहाँले मेरो महिमा हटाउनुभएको छ, र उहाँले मेरो शिरको मुकुट हटाउनुभएको छ ।
He has plundered me of my glory, and he has stolen the crown from my head.
10 उहाँले मलाई चारैतिरबाट चूर पार्नुभएको छ, र लोप हुन्छ, उहाँले मेरो आशा रूखलाई झैं उखेल्नुभएको छ ।
He has destroyed me on every side, and I am lost, and, like an uprooted tree, he has taken away my hope.
11 उहाँले मेरो विरुद्धमा आफ्नो क्रोध पनि दन्काउनुभएको छ । उहाँले मलाई आफ्ना शत्रुहरूमध्ये एक ठान्नुहुन्छ ।
His fury has raged against me, and in this way he has treated me like his enemy.
12 उहाँका फौजहरू सँगसँगै आउँछन् । तिनीहरूले मेरो विरुद्धमा घेरा लगाउँछन्, र मेरो पालको चारैतिर छाउनी हाल्छन् ।
His troops have gathered together, and they have made their way to me, and they have besieged my tabernacle all around.
13 उहाँले मेरा दाजुभाइलाई मबाट टाढा राख्नुभएको छ । मैले चिनजानकाहरू मबाट बिलकुल अलग रहन्छन् ।
He has put my brothers far from me, and my friends have withdrawn from me like strangers.
14 मेरा आफन्तहरू मबाट पछि हटेका छन् । मेरो घनिष्ठ मित्रहरूले मलाई बिर्सेका छन् ।
My kinsmen have forsaken me, and those who knew me, have forgotten me.
15 मेरो घरमा कुनै बेला पाहुना भएर रहेकाहरू र दासीहरूले मलाई बिरोनो ठान्छन् । तिनीहरूको दृष्टिमा म अनौठो भएको छु ।
The inhabitants of my house and my maidservants treat me just as if I were a stranger, and I have been like a sojourner in their eyes.
16 म आफ्नो सेवकलाई बोलाउँछु, तर उसले मलाई जवाफ दिंदैन । मैले आफ्नै मुखले त्यसलाई बिन्ती गर्छु ।
I called my servant, and he did not respond; I pleaded with him with my own mouth.
17 मेरो सास मेरी पत्नीलाई दुर्गन्धित लाग्छ । मेरै आमाको गर्भबाट जन्मेकाहरूले पनि मलाई घृणा गर्छन् ।
My wife has shuddered at my breath, and I have begged the sons of my loins.
18 सा-साना केटाकेटीले पनि मलाई तिरस्कार गर्छन् । म बोल्नलाई उठ्दा तिनीहरू मेरो विरुद्धमा बोल्छन् ।
Even the foolish have looked down on me, and, when I withdrew from them, they spoke ill of me.
19 मेरा सबै परिचित मित्रहरूले मलाई घृणा गर्छन् । मैले प्रेम गरेकाहरू मेरो विरुद्धमा लागेका छन् ।
Those who were sometimes my counselors, treat me like an abomination; and he whom I valued the most has turned against me.
20 मेरा हड्डीहरू मेरो छाला र मासुमा टाँसिन्छन् । म आफ्ना दाँतको छालाले मात्र बाँचेको छु ।
Since my flesh has been consumed, my bone adheres to my skin, and only my lips have been left around my teeth.
21 मलाई दया गर्नुहोस्, हे मेरा मित्रहरू हो, मलाई दया गर्नुहोस्, किनकि परमेश्वरको हातले मलाई छोएको छ ।
Have mercy on me, have compassion on me, at least you my friends, because the hand of the Lord has touched me.
22 परमेश्वरले झैं तपाईंहरू किन मेरो खेदो गर्नुहुन्छ? मेरो शरीरले तपाईंहरूलाई कहिल्यै सन्तुष्ट पार्छ र?
Why do you pursue me just as God does, and satiate yourselves with my flesh?
23 ओहो, मेरो वचनहरू यति बेला लेखिए त! ओहो, ती एउटा पुस्तकमा लेखिए त!
Who will grant to me that my words may be written down? Who will grant to me that they may be inscribed in a book,
24 ओहो, फलामको कलम र छिनोले, सदाको लागि ती चट्टानमा खोपे त!
with an iron pen and a plate of lead, or else be carved in stone?
25 तर मेरो बारेमा, मेरा उद्धारक जिउँदो हुनुहुन्छ, र अन्त्यमा उहाँ पृथ्वीमा खडा रहनुहुनेछ ।
For I know that my Redeemer lives, and on the last day I will rise out of the earth.
26 मेरो शरीरको छाला, अर्थात् शरीर पूरै गलेपछि, मेरो शरीरमा नै म परमेश्वरलाई देख्नेछु ।
And I will be enveloped again with my skin, and in my flesh I will see my God.
27 मेरा आफ्नै आँखाले— अरू कसैको होइन म आफैंले उहाँलाई देख्नेछु । मेरो हृदय मभित्रै विह्वल बन्छ ।
It is he whom I myself will see, and he whom my eyes will behold, and no other. This, my hope, has taken rest in my bosom.
28 तपाईंहरूले यसो भन्नुहुन्छ भने, 'हामी उसलाई कसरी सताउँ! उसको सङ्कष्टको जड ऊ आफै हो,'
Why then do you now say: “Let us pursue him, and let us find a basis to speak against him?”
29 तब तरवारदेखि डराउनुहोस्, किनकि क्रोधले तरवारको दण्ड ल्याउँछ, यसरी न्याय हुन्छ भनी तपाईंहरूले जान्नुहुनेछ ।”
So then, flee from the face of the sword, for the sword is the avenger of iniquities; but know this: there is to be a judgment.
