अय्यूब 19
1 तब अय्यूबले जवाफ दिए र भने,
Job replied,
2 “कहिलेसम्म तपाईंहरूले मलाई दुःख दिनुहुन्छ, र वचनले मलाई टुक्राटुक्रा पार्नुहुन्छ?
“How long will you go on tormenting me? How long will you go on crushing me with words?
3 यी दस पटक तपाईंहरूले मेरो अपमान गर्नुभएको छ । तपाईंहरूले मलाई कठोरतापूर्वक व्यवहार गरे पनि तपाईंहरू लाज मान्नुहुन्न ।
Ten times already you have humiliated me. Aren't you ashamed for treating me so badly?
4 मैले गल्ती गरेको कुरा वास्तवमा साँचो हो भने, मेरो गल्ती मेरो आफ्नै सरोकारको कुरो हो ।
Even if I did sin, that's my problem, and has nothing to do with you.
5 तपाईंहरूले आफूलाई मभन्दा माथि उचाल्नुहुन्छ, र मेरो तुच्छता मेरै विरुद्धमा प्रयोग गर्नुहुन्छ भने,
You think you're so much better than me, and you use my degradation against me.
6 तब तपाईंहरूले जान्नुपर्छ, परमेश्वरले मेरो हानि गर्नुभएको र मलाई आफ्नो पासोमा पार्नुभएको छ।
But you should realize that it's God who has wronged me, he has trapped me in his net.
7 हेर्नुहोस्, “हिंसा” भनेर म कराउँछु, तर मैले जवाफ पाउँदिन । मदतको लागि म पुकार्छु, तर त्यहाँ निष्पक्ष व्यवहार हुँदैन ।
Even though I cry for help, I get no answer; even though I shout my objections, I get no justice.
8 मेरो बाटोमा उहाँले पर्खाल लगाउनुभएको छ, यसैले म जान सक्दिनँ, अनि उहाँले मेरो मार्गमा अन्धकार राख्नुभएको छ ।
God has walled me in so I can't escape; he has plunged my path into darkness.
9 उहाँले मेरो महिमा हटाउनुभएको छ, र उहाँले मेरो शिरको मुकुट हटाउनुभएको छ ।
He has stripped my honor from me; he has taken away my reputation.
10 उहाँले मलाई चारैतिरबाट चूर पार्नुभएको छ, र लोप हुन्छ, उहाँले मेरो आशा रूखलाई झैं उखेल्नुभएको छ ।
He tears me down from all sides until I am finished; he has destroyed my hope like a tree that is uprooted.
11 उहाँले मेरो विरुद्धमा आफ्नो क्रोध पनि दन्काउनुभएको छ । उहाँले मलाई आफ्ना शत्रुहरूमध्ये एक ठान्नुहुन्छ ।
His anger burns against me; he treats me as one of his enemies.
12 उहाँका फौजहरू सँगसँगै आउँछन् । तिनीहरूले मेरो विरुद्धमा घेरा लगाउँछन्, र मेरो पालको चारैतिर छाउनी हाल्छन् ।
God's troops assemble to attack me. They build ramparts against me. They encircle and besiege my home.
13 उहाँले मेरा दाजुभाइलाई मबाट टाढा राख्नुभएको छ । मैले चिनजानकाहरू मबाट बिलकुल अलग रहन्छन् ।
He has driven my brothers far away from me; all my former friends are estranged from me.
14 मेरा आफन्तहरू मबाट पछि हटेका छन् । मेरो घनिष्ठ मित्रहरूले मलाई बिर्सेका छन् ।
My relatives have abandoned me; my close friends have forgotten me.
15 मेरो घरमा कुनै बेला पाहुना भएर रहेकाहरू र दासीहरूले मलाई बिरोनो ठान्छन् । तिनीहरूको दृष्टिमा म अनौठो भएको छु ।
My house guests and my maidservants treat me as a stranger—to them I have become a foreigner.
16 म आफ्नो सेवकलाई बोलाउँछु, तर उसले मलाई जवाफ दिंदैन । मैले आफ्नै मुखले त्यसलाई बिन्ती गर्छु ।
I call my servant, but he doesn't reply. I have to beg him!
17 मेरो सास मेरी पत्नीलाई दुर्गन्धित लाग्छ । मेरै आमाको गर्भबाट जन्मेकाहरूले पनि मलाई घृणा गर्छन् ।
I am repulsive to my wife, and I am loathsome to my own brothers.
18 सा-साना केटाकेटीले पनि मलाई तिरस्कार गर्छन् । म बोल्नलाई उठ्दा तिनीहरू मेरो विरुद्धमा बोल्छन् ।
Even young children despise me; when I stand up they ridicule me.
19 मेरा सबै परिचित मित्रहरूले मलाई घृणा गर्छन् । मैले प्रेम गरेकाहरू मेरो विरुद्धमा लागेका छन् ।
All my closest friends despise me, and those I loved have turned on me.
20 मेरा हड्डीहरू मेरो छाला र मासुमा टाँसिन्छन् । म आफ्ना दाँतको छालाले मात्र बाँचेको छु ।
I've been reduced to skin and bones and I survive by the skin of my teeth.
21 मलाई दया गर्नुहोस्, हे मेरा मित्रहरू हो, मलाई दया गर्नुहोस्, किनकि परमेश्वरको हातले मलाई छोएको छ ।
Have pity on me, my friends, have pity on me, because God has struck me down!
22 परमेश्वरले झैं तपाईंहरू किन मेरो खेदो गर्नुहुन्छ? मेरो शरीरले तपाईंहरूलाई कहिल्यै सन्तुष्ट पार्छ र?
Why are you persecuting me like God does? Aren't you satisfied with getting your pound of flesh?
23 ओहो, मेरो वचनहरू यति बेला लेखिए त! ओहो, ती एउटा पुस्तकमा लेखिए त!
I wish my words could be written down, recorded in a book,
24 ओहो, फलामको कलम र छिनोले, सदाको लागि ती चट्टानमा खोपे त!
or engraved with an iron pen and molten lead in the rock forever.
25 तर मेरो बारेमा, मेरा उद्धारक जिउँदो हुनुहुन्छ, र अन्त्यमा उहाँ पृथ्वीमा खडा रहनुहुनेछ ।
I know my Redeemer is alive, and that he shall finally take the stand for me on the earth.
26 मेरो शरीरको छाला, अर्थात् शरीर पूरै गलेपछि, मेरो शरीरमा नै म परमेश्वरलाई देख्नेछु ।
Even though my skin is destroyed, in my body I shall see God.
27 मेरा आफ्नै आँखाले— अरू कसैको होइन म आफैंले उहाँलाई देख्नेछु । मेरो हृदय मभित्रै विह्वल बन्छ ।
I myself will see him—with my own eyes, and not those of someone else! The thought overcomes me!
28 तपाईंहरूले यसो भन्नुहुन्छ भने, 'हामी उसलाई कसरी सताउँ! उसको सङ्कष्टको जड ऊ आफै हो,'
You say to yourselves, ‘How can we make him suffer so he can see he is the source of his problems?’
29 तब तरवारदेखि डराउनुहोस्, किनकि क्रोधले तरवारको दण्ड ल्याउँछ, यसरी न्याय हुन्छ भनी तपाईंहरूले जान्नुहुनेछ ।”
You yourselves should fear being punished by God, for you know anger brings God's punishment that accompanies judgment.”
