अय्यूब 20
1 तब सोपर नमातीले जवाफ दिए र यसो भने,
Then Zophar the Naamathite answered,
2 “ममा भएको चिन्ताको कारणले, मेरा विचारहरूले मलाई झट्टै जवाफ दिने बनाउँछन् ।
“Therefore my thoughts answer me, even by reason of my haste that is in me.
3 मलाई अनादार गर्ने हप्की म सुन्छु, तर मेरो सुझबुझको आत्माले मलाई जवाफ दिन्छ ।
I have heard the reproof which puts me to shame. The spirit of my understanding answers me.
4 यो सत्यता तपाईंलाई प्राचीन समयदेखि नै थाहा छैन र, जति बेला परमेश्वरले मानिसलाई पृथ्वीमा राख्नुभयोः
Do not you know this from old time, since man was placed on earth,
5 दुष्ट मानिसको जित क्षणिक हुन्छ, र ईश्वरहीन मानिसको आनन्द क्षणभर मात्र रहन्छ ।
that the triumphing of the wicked is short, the joy of the godless but for a moment?
6 उसको उच्चता आकाशसम्मै पुगे, र उसको शिर बादलसम्मै पुगे पनि,
Though his height mount up to the heavens, and his head reach to the clouds,
7 त्यस्तो व्यक्ति आफ्नै मलमूत्रझैं स्थायी रूपमा नष्ट हुनेछ । उसलाई देखेकाहरूले सोध्नेछन्, 'ऊ कहाँ छ?'
yet he will perish forever like his own dung. Those who have seen him will say, ‘Where is he?’
8 ऊ सपनाझैं हराउनेछ, र भेट्टाइने छैन । वास्तवमा ऊ रातको दर्शनझैं लुप्त हुनेछ ।
He will fly away as a dream, and will not be found. Yes, he will be chased away like a vision of the night.
9 उसलाई देखेका आँखाले फेरि उसलाई देख्नेछैन । उसको ठाउँले फेरि उसलाई देख्नेछैन ।
The eye which saw him will see him no more, neither will his place see him any more.
10 उसका छोराछोरीले गरिब मानिसहरू सँग क्षमा माग्नेछन् । उसको धन-सम्पत्ति उसकै हातले फिर्ता गर्नुपर्नेछ ।
His children will seek the favor of the poor. His hands will give back his wealth.
11 उसका हड्डीहरू युवावस्थाका ताकतले भरिएका छन्, तर ऊसँगै ती पनि भुइँमा ढल्नेछन् ।
His bones are full of his youth, but youth will lie down with him in the dust.
12 उसको मुखमा दुष्टता गुलियो भए पनि, उसले त्यसलाई आफ्नो जिब्रोमुनि लुकाए पनि,
“Though wickedness is sweet in his mouth, though he hide it under his tongue,
13 उसले त्यो त्यहीं राख्छ अनि त्यसलाई, फुत्किन दिंदैन तर त्यो आफ्नो मुखेमा राख्छ भने पनि,
though he spare it, and will not let it go, but keep it still within his mouth,
14 उसको भुँडीभित्र भएको खाना तितो बन्छ । उसको भित्र त्यो सर्पको विषझैं बन्छ ।
yet his food in his bowels is turned. It is cobra venom within him.
15 उसले धन-सम्पत्ति निल्छ, तर उसले फेरि ती बान्ता गर्छ । परमेश्वरले उसको पेटबाट ती बाहिर निकाल्नुन्छ ।
He has swallowed down riches, and he will vomit them up again. God will cast them out of his belly.
16 उसले सर्षको विष चुस्नेछ । साँभे-सर्पको जिब्रोले उसलाई मार्नेछ ।
He will suck cobra venom. The viper’s tongue will kill him.
17 महको धारा अर्थात् तरलता, र घिउको आनन्द उसले लिन पाउनेछैन ।
He will not look at the rivers, the flowing streams of honey and butter.
18 आफ्नो परिश्रमको फल उसले फिर्ता गर्नेछ र त्यो खान सक्नेछैन । आफ्नो व्यापारद्वारा कमाएको सम्पत्तिको आनन्द उसले पाउनेछैन ।
He will restore that for which he labored, and will not swallow it down. He will not rejoice according to the substance that he has gotten.
19 किनकि उसले गरिब मानिसहरूलाई अत्याचार र बेवास्ता गरेको छ । आफूले नबनाएका घरहरूलाई उसले जबरजस्ती कब्जा गरेको छ ।
For he has oppressed and forsaken the poor. He has violently taken away a house, and he will not build it up.
20 ऊ आफैमा सन्तुष्ट नभएको हुनाले, आफूले मजा लिने कुनै कुरा पनि उसले बचाउन सक्नेछैन ।
“Because he knew no quietness within him, he will not save anything of that in which he delights.
21 उसले नखाएको कुनै कुरो बाँकी छैन । त्यसकारण उसको सम्बृद्धि स्थायी हुनेछैन ।
There was nothing left that he did not devour, therefore his prosperity will not endure.
22 आफ्नो धनको प्रचुरतामा ऊ सङ्कष्टमा पर्नेछ । गरिबीमा रहेकाहरू हरेकको हात उसको विरुद्धमा आइलाग्नेछ ।
In the fullness of his sufficiency, distress will overtake him. The hand of everyone who is in misery will come on him.
23 उसले आफ्नो पेट भर्नै लाग्दा, परमेश्वरले आफ्नो घोर क्रोध उसमा उतार्नुहुन्छ । उसले खाइरहँदा परमेश्वरले उसमाथि त्यो बर्साउनुहुन्छ ।
When he is about to fill his belly, God will cast the fierceness of his wrath on him. It will rain on him while he is eating.
24 त्यो मानिस फलामको हतियारबाट भागे तापनि, काँसको धनुले उसलाई प्रहार गर्नेछ ।
He will flee from the iron weapon. The bronze arrow will strike him through.
25 आफ्नो पिठिउँबाट उसले त्यो तान्नेछ, र चम्कने टुप्पो उसको कलेजोबाट बाहिर निस्कनेछ । उसमा त्रासहरू आउनेछन् ।
He draws it out, and it comes out of his body. Yes, the glittering point comes out of his liver. Terrors are on him.
26 उसको धनको लागि निस्पट्ट अन्धकार साँचिएको छ । प्रचण्ड आगोले उसलाई भस्म पार्नेछ । उसको पालमा छोडिएका सबै कुरालाई त्यसले भष्म पार्नेछ ।
All darkness is laid up for his treasures. An unfanned fire will devour him. It will consume that which is left in his tent.
27 स्वर्गले उसको अधर्म प्रकट गर्नेछ, र साक्षीको रूपमा पृथ्वी नै उसको विरुद्धमा खडा हुनेछ ।
The heavens will reveal his iniquity. The earth will rise up against him.
28 उसको घरको धन लुप्त हुनेछ । परमेश्वरको क्रोधको दिनमा उसका सामानहरू टाढा बग्नेछन् ।
The increase of his house will depart. They will rush away in the day of his wrath.
29 परमेश्वरबाट दुष्ट मानिसले पाउने भाग, परमेश्वरले उसको निम्ति साँच्नुभएको पैतृक-अंश यही हो ।
This is the portion of a wicked man from God, the heritage appointed to him by God.”
