अय्यूब 19
1 तब अय्यूबले जवाफ दिए र भने,
Then Job replied:
2 “कहिलेसम्म तपाईंहरूले मलाई दुःख दिनुहुन्छ, र वचनले मलाई टुक्राटुक्रा पार्नुहुन्छ?
“How long will you [three] torment me and crush my spirit by saying to me [that I am wicked]?
3 यी दस पटक तपाईंहरूले मेरो अपमान गर्नुभएको छ । तपाईंहरूले मलाई कठोरतापूर्वक व्यवहार गरे पनि तपाईंहरू लाज मान्नुहुन्न ।
You have already insulted me many [HYP] times; (are you not ashamed for saying these things to me?/you should be ashamed for saying these things to me.) [RHQ]
4 मैले गल्ती गरेको कुरा वास्तवमा साँचो हो भने, मेरो गल्ती मेरो आफ्नै सरोकारको कुरो हो ।
Even if it were true that I have done things that are wrong, I have not injured you!
5 तपाईंहरूले आफूलाई मभन्दा माथि उचाल्नुहुन्छ, र मेरो तुच्छता मेरै विरुद्धमा प्रयोग गर्नुहुन्छ भने,
If you truly think that you are better than I am, and you think that my being miserable now proves that I (am guilty/have committed many sins),
6 तब तपाईंहरूले जान्नुपर्छ, परमेश्वरले मेरो हानि गर्नुभएको र मलाई आफ्नो पासोमा पार्नुभएको छ।
you need to realize that it is God who has caused me to suffer. [It is as though] he has trapped me with his net.
7 हेर्नुहोस्, “हिंसा” भनेर म कराउँछु, तर मैले जवाफ पाउँदिन । मदतको लागि म पुकार्छु, तर त्यहाँ निष्पक्ष व्यवहार हुँदैन ।
“I cry out, ‘Help me!’, but no one answers me. I call out loudly, but there is no one, [not even God, ] who acts fairly toward me.
8 मेरो बाटोमा उहाँले पर्खाल लगाउनुभएको छ, यसैले म जान सक्दिनँ, अनि उहाँले मेरो मार्गमा अन्धकार राख्नुभएको छ ।
[It is as though] [MET] God has blocked my way, with the result that I cannot go where I want to; [it is as though] he has forced me to try to find my way in the darkness.
9 उहाँले मेरो महिमा हटाउनुभएको छ, र उहाँले मेरो शिरको मुकुट हटाउनुभएको छ ।
He has (taken away my good reputation/caused people not to honor me any more); [it is as though] he removed [MET] a crown from my head.
10 उहाँले मलाई चारैतिरबाट चूर पार्नुभएको छ, र लोप हुन्छ, उहाँले मेरो आशा रूखलाई झैं उखेल्नुभएको छ ।
He batters me from every side, and I will soon die. He has caused me to no longer confidently expect [him to do good things for me].
11 उहाँले मेरो विरुद्धमा आफ्नो क्रोध पनि दन्काउनुभएको छ । उहाँले मलाई आफ्ना शत्रुहरूमध्ये एक ठान्नुहुन्छ ।
He attacks me because he is extremely angry with me [MET], and he considers that I am his enemy.
12 उहाँका फौजहरू सँगसँगै आउँछन् । तिनीहरूले मेरो विरुद्धमा घेरा लगाउँछन्, र मेरो पालको चारैतिर छाउनी हाल्छन् ।
[It is as though] he sends his army to attack me; they surround my tent, preparing to attack me.
13 उहाँले मेरा दाजुभाइलाई मबाट टाढा राख्नुभएको छ । मैले चिनजानकाहरू मबाट बिलकुल अलग रहन्छन् ।
“God has caused my brothers to abandon me, and all those who know me act like strangers to me.
14 मेरा आफन्तहरू मबाट पछि हटेका छन् । मेरो घनिष्ठ मित्रहरूले मलाई बिर्सेका छन् ।
All my relatives and good friends have left me.
15 मेरो घरमा कुनै बेला पाहुना भएर रहेकाहरू र दासीहरूले मलाई बिरोनो ठान्छन् । तिनीहरूको दृष्टिमा म अनौठो भएको छु ।
The people who were guests in my house have forgotten me, and my female servants consider that I am a stranger or that I am a foreigner.
16 म आफ्नो सेवकलाई बोलाउँछु, तर उसले मलाई जवाफ दिंदैन । मैले आफ्नै मुखले त्यसलाई बिन्ती गर्छु ।
When I summon my servants, they do not answer; I plead with them to come [to help me, but they do not come].
17 मेरो सास मेरी पत्नीलाई दुर्गन्धित लाग्छ । मेरै आमाको गर्भबाट जन्मेकाहरूले पनि मलाई घृणा गर्छन् ।
My wife does not want to come close to me because my breath [smells very bad], and even my brothers detest me.
18 सा-साना केटाकेटीले पनि मलाई तिरस्कार गर्छन् । म बोल्नलाई उठ्दा तिनीहरू मेरो विरुद्धमा बोल्छन् ।
Even young children despise me; when I stand up [to talk to them], they laugh at me.
19 मेरा सबै परिचित मित्रहरूले मलाई घृणा गर्छन् । मैले प्रेम गरेकाहरू मेरो विरुद्धमा लागेका छन् ।
My dearest friends detest me, and those whom I love [very much] have turned against me.
20 मेरा हड्डीहरू मेरो छाला र मासुमा टाँसिन्छन् । म आफ्ना दाँतको छालाले मात्र बाँचेको छु ।
My body is [only] skin and bones; I am barely alive [IDM].
21 मलाई दया गर्नुहोस्, हे मेरा मित्रहरू हो, मलाई दया गर्नुहोस्, किनकि परमेश्वरको हातले मलाई छोएको छ ।
[“I plead with] you, my [three] friends, pity me, because God has (struck [EUP] me with his hand/caused me to suffer greatly).
22 परमेश्वरले झैं तपाईंहरू किन मेरो खेदो गर्नुहुन्छ? मेरो शरीरले तपाईंहरूलाई कहिल्यै सन्तुष्ट पार्छ र?
Why do you cause me to suffer like God does? Why do you continue to slander [MET] me?
23 ओहो, मेरो वचनहरू यति बेला लेखिए त! ओहो, ती एउटा पुस्तकमा लेखिए त!
“I wish/desire that someone would take these words of mine and write them permanently in a book [in order that people can read them].
24 ओहो, फलामको कलम र छिनोले, सदाको लागि ती चट्टानमा खोपे त!
Or else, I wish that he would carve them on a rock with (a chisel/an iron tool) in order that they would last forever.
25 तर मेरो बारेमा, मेरा उद्धारक जिउँदो हुनुहुन्छ, र अन्त्यमा उहाँ पृथ्वीमा खडा रहनुहुनेछ ।
But I know that the one who vindicates/defends me in court is alive, and that some day he will stand [here] on the earth [and make the final decision about whether I deserve to be punished].
26 मेरो शरीरको छाला, अर्थात् शरीर पूरै गलेपछि, मेरो शरीरमा नै म परमेश्वरलाई देख्नेछु ।
And even after diseases have eaten away my skin, while I still have my body, I will see God.
27 मेरा आफ्नै आँखाले— अरू कसैको होइन म आफैंले उहाँलाई देख्नेछु । मेरो हृदय मभित्रै विह्वल बन्छ ।
I will see him myself; I will see him with my own eyes! I am overwhelmed [as I think about that]!
28 तपाईंहरूले यसो भन्नुहुन्छ भने, 'हामी उसलाई कसरी सताउँ! उसको सङ्कष्टको जड ऊ आफै हो,'
“If you three men say, ‘What more can we do to cause Job to suffer?’ and if you say, ‘He has caused his own [troubles],’
29 तब तरवारदेखि डराउनुहोस्, किनकि क्रोधले तरवारको दण्ड ल्याउँछ, यसरी न्याय हुन्छ भनी तपाईंहरूले जान्नुहुनेछ ।”
you should be afraid that God will punish [MTY] you; he punishes those [like you] with whom he is angry; and when that happens, you will know that there is [someone who] judges [people].”
