< अय्यूब 20 >
1 तब सोपर नमातीले जवाफ दिए र यसो भने,
And Zophar the Naamathite answers and says:
2 “ममा भएको चिन्ताको कारणले, मेरा विचारहरूले मलाई झट्टै जवाफ दिने बनाउँछन् ।
“Therefore my thoughts cause me to answer, And because of my sensations in me.
3 मलाई अनादार गर्ने हप्की म सुन्छु, तर मेरो सुझबुझको आत्माले मलाई जवाफ दिन्छ ।
I hear the discipline of my shame, And the spirit of my understanding causes me to answer:
4 यो सत्यता तपाईंलाई प्राचीन समयदेखि नै थाहा छैन र, जति बेला परमेश्वरले मानिसलाई पृथ्वीमा राख्नुभयोः
Have you known this from antiquity? Since the placing of man on earth?
5 दुष्ट मानिसको जित क्षणिक हुन्छ, र ईश्वरहीन मानिसको आनन्द क्षणभर मात्र रहन्छ ।
That the singing of the wicked [is] short, And the joy of the profane for a moment,
6 उसको उच्चता आकाशसम्मै पुगे, र उसको शिर बादलसम्मै पुगे पनि,
Though his excellence goes up to the heavens, He strikes his head against a cloud—
7 त्यस्तो व्यक्ति आफ्नै मलमूत्रझैं स्थायी रूपमा नष्ट हुनेछ । उसलाई देखेकाहरूले सोध्नेछन्, 'ऊ कहाँ छ?'
He perishes as his own dung forever, His beholders say, Where [is] he?
8 ऊ सपनाझैं हराउनेछ, र भेट्टाइने छैन । वास्तवमा ऊ रातको दर्शनझैं लुप्त हुनेछ ।
He flees as a dream, and they do not find him, And he is driven away as a vision of the night,
9 उसलाई देखेका आँखाले फेरि उसलाई देख्नेछैन । उसको ठाउँले फेरि उसलाई देख्नेछैन ।
The eye has not seen him, and does not add. And his place does not behold him again.
10 उसका छोराछोरीले गरिब मानिसहरू सँग क्षमा माग्नेछन् । उसको धन-सम्पत्ति उसकै हातले फिर्ता गर्नुपर्नेछ ।
His sons oppress the poor, And his hands give back his wealth.
11 उसका हड्डीहरू युवावस्थाका ताकतले भरिएका छन्, तर ऊसँगै ती पनि भुइँमा ढल्नेछन् ।
His bones have been full of his youth, and it lies down with him on the dust.
12 उसको मुखमा दुष्टता गुलियो भए पनि, उसले त्यसलाई आफ्नो जिब्रोमुनि लुकाए पनि,
Though he sweetens evil in his mouth, hides it under his tongue,
13 उसले त्यो त्यहीं राख्छ अनि त्यसलाई, फुत्किन दिंदैन तर त्यो आफ्नो मुखेमा राख्छ भने पनि,
has pity on it, and does not forsake it, and keeps it back in the midst of his palate,
14 उसको भुँडीभित्र भएको खाना तितो बन्छ । उसको भित्र त्यो सर्पको विषझैं बन्छ ।
his food is turned in his bowels, the bitterness of cobras [is] in his heart.
15 उसले धन-सम्पत्ति निल्छ, तर उसले फेरि ती बान्ता गर्छ । परमेश्वरले उसको पेटबाट ती बाहिर निकाल्नुन्छ ।
He has swallowed wealth, and vomits it. God drives it out from his belly.
16 उसले सर्षको विष चुस्नेछ । साँभे-सर्पको जिब्रोले उसलाई मार्नेछ ।
He sucks [the] gall of cobras, the tongue of a viper slays him.
17 महको धारा अर्थात् तरलता, र घिउको आनन्द उसले लिन पाउनेछैन ।
He does not look on streams, Flowing of brooks of honey and butter.
18 आफ्नो परिश्रमको फल उसले फिर्ता गर्नेछ र त्यो खान सक्नेछैन । आफ्नो व्यापारद्वारा कमाएको सम्पत्तिको आनन्द उसले पाउनेछैन ।
He is giving back [what] he labored for, and does not consume [it]; As a bulwark [is] his exchange, and he does not exult.
19 किनकि उसले गरिब मानिसहरूलाई अत्याचार र बेवास्ता गरेको छ । आफूले नबनाएका घरहरूलाई उसले जबरजस्ती कब्जा गरेको छ ।
For he oppressed—he forsook the poor, He has taken a house away violently, And he does not build it.
20 ऊ आफैमा सन्तुष्ट नभएको हुनाले, आफूले मजा लिने कुनै कुरा पनि उसले बचाउन सक्नेछैन ।
For he has not known ease in his belly. With his desirable thing he does not deliver himself.
21 उसले नखाएको कुनै कुरो बाँकी छैन । त्यसकारण उसको सम्बृद्धि स्थायी हुनेछैन ।
There is not a remnant to his food, Therefore his good does not stay.
22 आफ्नो धनको प्रचुरतामा ऊ सङ्कष्टमा पर्नेछ । गरिबीमा रहेकाहरू हरेकको हात उसको विरुद्धमा आइलाग्नेछ ।
In the fullness of his sufficiency he is constricted. Every perverse hand meets him.
23 उसले आफ्नो पेट भर्नै लाग्दा, परमेश्वरले आफ्नो घोर क्रोध उसमा उतार्नुहुन्छ । उसले खाइरहँदा परमेश्वरले उसमाथि त्यो बर्साउनुहुन्छ ।
It comes to pass, at the filling of his belly, He sends forth against him The fierceness of His anger, Indeed, He rains on him in his eating.
24 त्यो मानिस फलामको हतियारबाट भागे तापनि, काँसको धनुले उसलाई प्रहार गर्नेछ ।
He flees from an iron weapon, A bow of bronze passes through him.
25 आफ्नो पिठिउँबाट उसले त्यो तान्नेछ, र चम्कने टुप्पो उसको कलेजोबाट बाहिर निस्कनेछ । उसमा त्रासहरू आउनेछन् ।
One has drawn, And it comes out from the body, And a glittering weapon proceeds from his gall. 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 hid for his treasures, A fire not blown consumes him, The remnant is broken in his tent.
27 स्वर्गले उसको अधर्म प्रकट गर्नेछ, र साक्षीको रूपमा पृथ्वी नै उसको विरुद्धमा खडा हुनेछ ।
The heavens reveal his iniquity, And earth is raising itself against him.
28 उसको घरको धन लुप्त हुनेछ । परमेश्वरको क्रोधको दिनमा उसका सामानहरू टाढा बग्नेछन् ।
The increase of his house is removed, Poured forth in a day of His anger.
29 परमेश्वरबाट दुष्ट मानिसले पाउने भाग, परमेश्वरले उसको निम्ति साँच्नुभएको पैतृक-अंश यही हो ।
This [is] the portion of a wicked man from God. And an inheritance appointed him by God.”
