< अय्यूब 27 >

1 अय्यूबले फेरि बोल्न थाले अनि यसो भने,
Job also added to this, using figures of speech, and he said:
2 “परमप्रभु जीवित हुनुभएझैं, जसले मेरो न्याय हटाउनुभएको छ, सर्वशक्तिमान्‌ जसले मेरो जीवन तितो बनाउनुभएको छ ।
As God lives, who has taken away my judgment, and the Almighty, who has led my soul to bitterness,
3 जबसम्‍म मेरो जीवन ममा रहन्‍छ, अनि परमेश्‍वरको सास मेरो नाकमा रहन्‍छ, तबसम्‍म म यही कुरा गर्नेछु ।
as long as my breath remains in me and the breath of God remains in my nostrils,
4 मेरो ओठले दुष्‍ट कुरा बोल्नेछैन, न त मेरो जिब्रोले छलको कुरा बोल्नेछ ।
my lips will not speak iniquity, nor will my tongue devise lies.
5 तपाईंहरू तिन जनाले ठिक बोल्‍नुहुन्‍छ भनी म कदापि स्वीकार गर्दिन । मेरो मृत्‍यु नभएसम्म म आफ्‍नो निष्ठालाई कदापि इन्कार गर्ने छैनँ ।
Far be it from me that I should judge you to be right, for, until I expire, I will not withdraw from my innocence.
6 म आफ्‍नो धार्मिकतालाई बलियो गरी समाउँछु, र त्‍यसलाई जान दिन्‍नँ । म बाँचुञ्जेलसम्म मेरा विचारहरूले मलाई निन्‍दित पार्नेछैनन् ।
I will not forsake my justification, which I have just begun to grasp, for my heart does not find blame for me in my whole life.
7 मेरो शत्रु एक जना दुष्‍ट मानिसझैं होस् । जो मेरो विरुद्धमा खडा हुन्‍छ, ऊ एक जना अधर्मी मानिसझैं होस् ।
Let the impious be as my enemy, and the sinful, as my adversary.
8 किनकि परमेश्‍वरले ईश्‍वरहीन मानिसलाई इन्कार गर्नुहुँदा, परमेश्‍वरले उसको जीवनलाई हटाउनुहुँदा, उसको आशा के हुन्छ र?
For what hope is there for the hypocrite, if he greedily plunders and God does not free his soul?
9 उसमाथि सङ्कष्‍ट आइपर्दा, के परमेश्‍वरले उसको पुकारा सुन्‍नुहुन्‍छ र?
Will God pay attention to his cry, when anguish overcomes him?
10 के ऊ सर्वशक्तिमान्‌मा आनन्दित हुन्‍छ, अनि उसले हर समयमा परमेश्‍वरलाई पुकारा गर्छ?
Or will he take delight in the Almighty and call upon God at all times?
11 म तपाईंहरूलाई परमेश्‍वरको शक्तिको बारेमा सिकाउनेछु । म सर्वशक्तिमान्‌का विचारहरूलाई लुकाउनेछैनँ ।
I will teach you through the hand of God, what the Almighty holds, and I will not conceal it.
12 हेर्नुहोस्, तपाईंहरू सबैले यो आफैले देख्‍नुभएको छ । तब तपाईंहरूले यी सबै निरर्थक कुरा किन बोल्नुभएको हो त?
Behold, you know all this, and so why do you speak vain things without a reason?
13 दुष्‍ट मानिसले परमेश्‍वरबाट पाउने हिस्सा यही हो । सर्वशक्तिमान्‌बाट अत्याचारीले पाउने आफ्‍नो पैतृक-अंश यही हो ।
This is the portion of the impious man with God, and the inheritance of the violent, which they will receive from the Almighty.
14 उसका छोराछोरीको सङ्‍ख्‍या बढ्‍छन् भने, त्‍यो तरवारको निम्‍तो हो । उसका सन्तानहरूले पेटभरि खान कदापि पाउने छैनन् ।
If his sons should happen to increase, they will be for the sword, and his grandsons will not be satisfied with bread.
15 ऊसँग बाँच्नेहरू विपत्तिद्वारा गाडिनेछन्, अनि तिनीहरूका विधवाहरूले तिनीहरूका निम्‍ति विलाप गर्नेछैनन् ।
Whatever will remain of him will be buried in the ruins, and his widows will not weep.
16 दुष्‍ट मानिसले धूलोझैं चाँदीको थुप्रो लगाए पनि, र माटोझैं लुगाफाटा थुपारे पनि,
If he will amass silver as if it were dirt and fabricate garments as if they were clay,
17 उसले ती लुगाफाटा जम्मा त गर्ला, तर धर्मी मानिसहरूले ती लगाउनेछन्, र निर्दोष मानिसहरूले चाँदीचाहिं आफ्‍नो बिचमा बाँड्‍नेछन् ।
then yes, he will gather, but the just will be clothed with it and the innocent will divide the silver.
18 माकुरोले झैं, एक जना पहरेदारले बनाउने झुप्रोझैं, उसले आफ्‍नो घर बनाउँछ ।
He has built his house like a moth, and he has made a makeshift shelter like a sentry.
19 ऊ धनी भएर ओछ्यानमा पल्टन्छ, तर उसले त्यसो गरिरहने छैन । उसले आफ्ना आँखा खोल्‍छ, अनि हरेक कुरा सिद्धिएको हुनेछ ।
When he falls asleep, the rich man will leave him with nothing; he will open his eyes and find nothing.
20 पानीले झैं त्रासले उसलाई डुबाउनेछ । रातमा एउटा आँधीले उसलाई टाढा पुर्‍याउनेछ ।
Destitution will surround him like water; a storm will overwhelm him in the night.
21 पूर्वीय बतासले उसलाई उडाएर लानेछ, र उसले छोड्‍नेछ । त्‍यसले उसलाई आफ्नो बासस्थानबाट पुर्‍याउनेछ ।
A burning wind will pick him up and carry him away, and, like a whirlwind, it will rush him from his place.
22 उसमाथि त्‍यो हुत्तिन्‍छ, र रोकिन्‍न । त्‍यसको पन्जाबाट ऊ भाग्‍न खोज्‍छ ।
And it will hurl over him and will not spare him; fleeing from its power, he will go into exile.
23 उसको गिल्‍ला गरेर त्‍यसले आफ्‍नो ताली बजाउँछ । त्यसले आफ्नो ठाउँबाट उसको खिसी गर्छ ।
He will clasp his hands over himself, and he will hiss at himself, while considering his situation.
