अय्यूब 3

1 यसपछि अय्यूबले आफ्नो मुख खोले, र आफू जन्मेको दिनलाई सरापे ।

Afterward Iob opened his mouth, and cursed his day.

2 तिनले भने,

And Iob cryed out, and sayd,

3 “म जन्मेको दिन नष्‍ट होस्, त्‍यो रात जसले भन्‍यो, 'एउटा बालकको गर्भधारण भएको छ ।'

Let the day perish, wherein I was borne, and the night when it was sayde, There is a man childe conceiued.

4 त्यो दिन अन्धकार होस् । परमेश्‍वरले माथिबाट त्‍यसलाई याद नगरून्, न त यसमा घाम लागोस् ।

Let that day bee darkenesse, let not God regarde it from aboue, neyther let the light shine vpon it,

5 अन्धकार र मृत्युको छायाले आफ्नो लागि यसलाई दाबी गरून् । यसमाथि बादल लागोस् । दिनलाई अँध्यारो बनाउने हरेक कुराले यसलाई साँच्‍चै त्रसित पारोस् ।

But let darkenesse, and the shadowe of death staine it: let the cloude remayne vpon it, and let them make it fearefull as a bitter day.

6 निस्पट्ट अँध्यारोले त्यो रातलाई समातोस् । वर्षका दिनहरूका बिचमा यो नरमाओस् । महिनाहरूको गन्तीमा यसको गणना नहोस् ।

Let darkenesse possesse that night, let it not be ioyned vnto the dayes of the yeere, nor let it come into the count of the moneths.

7 हेर, त्यो रात बाँझो होस् । यसमा कुनै हर्षको सोर नआओस् ।

Yea, desolate be that night, and let no ioy be in it.

8 लिव्यातन्‌लाई कसरी ब्युँझाउने भनी जानेकाहरूले, त्यस दिनलाई सराप दिऊन् ।

Let them that curse the day, (being readie to renue their mourning) curse it.

9 त्यो दिनको बिहानका ताराहरू अँध्यारो होऊन् । त्यो दिनले ज्योति खोजोस्, तर नपाओस्, न त यसले मिरमरेको प्रथम किरणलाई देख्‍न पाओस् ।

Let the starres of that twilight be dimme through darkenesse of it: let it looke for light, but haue none: neither let it see the dawning of the day,

10 किनभने यसले मेरी आमाको गर्भको ढोकालाई थुनेन, र किनभने यसले मेरा आँखाबाट कष्‍टलाई लुकाएन ।

Because it shut not vp the dores of my mothers wombe: nor hid sorowe from mine eyes.

11 मेरी आमाको गर्भबाट बाहिर निस्कँदा म किन मरिनँ? मेरी आमाले मलाई जन्माउँदा मैले आफ्‍नो आत्मा किन त्यागिनँ?

Why died I not in the birth? or why dyed I not, when I came out of the wombe?

12 उनका घुँडाहरूले मलाई किन स्वागत गरे? मैले दूध चुस्‍नलाई उनका स्तनहरूले मलाई किन स्वीकार गरे?

Why did the knees preuent me? and why did I sucke the breasts?

13 किनकि अहिले म चुप लागेर बसिरहेको हुन्‍थें । म सुतेको हुन्‍थें, र विश्राममा हुन्‍थें,

For so shoulde I now haue lyen and bene quiet, I should haue slept then, and bene at rest,

14 पृथ्वीका राजाहरू र सल्लाहकारहरूका साथमा, जसले आफ्नै लागि चिहानहरू बनाए, जुन अहिले ध्‍वस्‍त छन् ।

With the Kings and counselers of the earth, which haue buylded themselues desolate places:

15 अर्थात् ती राजकुमारहरूसित म सुतिरहेको हुन्‍थें, जससित कुनै बेला सुन थियो, जसले आफ्ना घरहरूलाई चाँदीले भरेका थिए ।

Or with the princes that had golde, and haue filled their houses with siluer.

16 अर्थात् सायद म तुहेर जन्‍मने थिएँ, कदापि उज्‍यालो नदेख्‍ने शिशुहरूझैं हुन्‍थें ।

Or why was I not hid, as an vntimely birth, either as infants, which haue not seene the light?

17 त्यहाँ दुष्‍टको अत्‍याचार सकिन्‍छ । त्यहाँ थाकितहरूले विश्राममा लिन्छन् ।

The wicked haue there ceased from their tyrannie, and there they that laboured valiantly, are at rest.

18 त्यहाँ कैदीहरू सँगसँगै चैनमा हुन्छन् । तिनीहरूले कमाराको नाइकेको सोर सुन्‍नुपर्दैन ।

The prisoners rest together, and heare not the voyce of the oppressour.

19 त्यहाँ साना र ठुला दुवै थरिका मानिसहरू छन् । नोकर आफ्नो मालिकबाट स्‍वतन्‍त्र हुन्छ ।

There are small and great, and the seruant is free from his master.

20 दुःखमा हुनेलाई किन ज्योति दिइन्छ? मनमा तितो हुनेलाई किन जीवन दिइन्छ?

Wherefore is the light giuen to him that is in miserie? and life vnto them that haue heauie hearts?

21 जसले मृत्यु नै नआई त्‍यसको प्रतीक्षा गर्छ, जसले गाड्धनभन्‍दा धेरै मृत्यको लागि खाडल खन्‍छ ।

Which long for death, and if it come not, they would euen search it more then treasures:

22 जसले चिहान फेला पार्दा ज्यादै रमाउँछ र खुसी हुन्छ, त्‍यसलाई ज्योति किन दिइन्छ?

Which ioy for gladnes, and reioyce, when they can finde the graue.

23 जसको मार्ग लुकाइएको छ, र जुन मानिसलाई परमेश्‍वरले छेक्‍नुभएको छ, त्यस मानिसलाई ज्योति किन दिइन्छ?

Why is the light giuen to the man whose way is hid, and whom God hath hedged in?

24 किनकि मैले खानुको साटो सुस्केरा हाल्छु । मेरो वेदनाको सोर पानीझैं पोखिन्छ ।

For my sighing commeth before I eate, and my roarings are powred out like the water.

25 जुन कुरोदेखि म डराउँथेँ, त्यही मकहाँ आएको छ । म जेदेखि भयभीत हुन्थेँ, त्यही मकहाँ आएको छ ।

For the thing I feared, is come vpon me, and the thing that I was afraid of, is come vnto me.

26 म चैनमा छैनँ, म मौन छैनँ, र मलाई विश्राम छैन । बरु सङ्कष्‍ट आउँछ ।”

I had no peace, neither had I quietnesse, neither had I rest, yet trouble is come.
