अय्यूब 32
1 त्यसैले यी तिन जना मानिसले अय्यूबलाई जवाफ दिन छाडे किनभने आफ्नो दृष्टिमा तिनले आफूलाई धर्मी ठहराए ।
Then those three men stopped answering Job, because [they could not convince Job that he was wrong in claiming that] he had not done anything that was wrong.
2 त्यसपछि रामको परिवारको बुजी बारकेलका छोरा एलीहूलाई रिस उठ्यो । तिनलाई अय्यूबको विरुद्धमा रिस उठेको थियो, किनकि तिनले परमेश्वरभन्दा पनि आफैलाई धर्मी ठहराएका थिए ।
Then Elihu, the son of Barachel, a descendant of Buz, from the clan of Ram, became very angry at Job. He was angry because Job continued to claim that he was righteous/innocent, and that God was wrong [to punish him].
3 तिन जना मित्रको विरुद्धमा पनि एलीहूलाई रिस उठ्यो किनकि तिनीहरूले अय्यूबलाई जवाफ दिन सकेका थिएनन्, र पनि तिनीहरूले अय्यूबलाई दोषी ठहराएका थिए ।
He was also angry with Job’s three friends, because they had declared that Job must have done many things that were wrong, but they were unable to convince Job [that what they said was true]. As a result, [it seemed to Elihu that] God did what was wrong by punishing Job.
4 अरू मानिसहरू एलीहूभन्दा उमेरमा पाका भएका हुनाले तिनले अय्यूबसित बोल्नलाई पर्खिरहेका थिए ।
Elihu was younger than the others, so he waited [until they had finished speaking] before he replied to Job.
5 तापनि यी तिन जना मानिसका मुखमा एलीहूले जवाफ नदेखेपछि तिनलाई रिस उठ्यो ।
But when Elihu realized that the three men had no more to say [MTY] to Job, he became angry.
6 तब बुजी बारकेलका छोरा एलीहू बोले र यसो भने, “म जवान छु, र तपाईंहरू निकै पाका हुनुहुन्छ । त्यसैले म चुप लागें, र मेरो विचार तपाईंहरूलाई भन्ने आँट गरिनँ ।
And this is what he said: “I am young, and you all are much older than I am. So, I was timid, and I was afraid to tell you what I was thinking.
7 मैले भनें, “बुढा-पाकाले बोल्नुपर्छ । धेरै वर्ष बिताएकाहरूले बुद्धि सिकाउनुपर्छ ।
I thought, ‘Let those [PRS] who are much older speak, because older people [should be able to] say things that are wise.’
8 तर मानिसमा एउटा आत्मा हुन्छ । सर्वशक्तिमान्को सासले उसलाई सुझबुझ दिन्छ ।
But the Spirit of Almighty [God] is within people, and it is he who enables them to be wise.
9 महान् मानिसहरू मात्र बुद्धिमान् हुँदैनन्, न त पाका मानिसहरूले मात्र न्यायलाई बुझ्छन् ।
It is not people becoming old that enables them to be wise; not [all] old people understand what is right.
10 यसैकारण म तपाईंहरूलाई भन्दछु, 'मेरो कुरा सुन्नुहोस् । म पनि तपाईंहरूलाई आफ्नो ज्ञान भन्नेछु ।’
“So, I say, ‘Listen to me, and allow me to say what I think.’
11 हेर्नुहोस्, मैले तपाईंहरूका कुरा सुनें । तपाईंहरूले के भन्ने भनी विचार गरिरहँदा मैले तपाईंका बहसहरू सुनें ।
I waited for you all to speak; I wanted to hear the wise things that you would say. I waited while you thought carefully about what [would be the right things] to say.
12 वास्तवमा मैले ध्यान दिएर तपाईंहरूका कुरा सुनें, तर तपाईंहरूमध्ये एक जनाले पनि अय्यूबलाई विश्वस्त पार्न, अर्थात् तिनको वचनलाई जवाफ दिन सक्नुभएन ।
I paid attention carefully, but surprisingly, none of you were able to prove that what Job said was wrong.
13 'हामीले बुद्धि भेट्टाएका छौं,' नभन्नलाई होसियार हुनुहोस् । अय्यूबलाई परमेश्वरले नै हराउनुपर्छ । मानिसले यसो गर्न सक्दैन ।
So, do not say [to yourselves], ‘We have discovered what is wise!’ It is God who must (refute Job/show that what Job said was wrong), because you three have not been able to do that.
14 किनकि अय्यूबले आफ्ना वचनहरू मेरो विरुद्धमा बोलेका छैनन् । त्यसैले तपाईंहरूकै जवाफले म तिनलाई जवाफ दिनेछैनँ ।
Job was replying to you, [not to me], but I will not reply to him by saying what you three said.
15 यी तिन जना मानिसका बोली बन्द भएका छन् । तिनीहरूले फेरि अय्यूबलाई जवाई दिन सक्दैनन् । तिनीहरूसँगत बोल्नलाई एउटै शब्द पनि छैन ।
“You three are dismayed [because you have not been able to convince him that he was wrong], so you are not saying any more to him [DOU].
16 तिनीहरू बोल्दैनन्, तिनीहरू चूपचाप खडा छन्, अनि कुनै जवाफ दिंदैनन् भनेर के म पर्खिरहनू?
But because you do not speak, I certainly will not wait any longer [RHQ]; you merely stand there and do not reply any more.
17 अहँ, म पनि आफ्नो तर्फबाट जवाफ दिनेछु । म पनि तिनीहरूलाई आफ्नो ज्ञान भन्नेछु ।
So [now] I also will reply [to Job] and say what I think.
18 किनकि मसँग जवाफ धेरै छन् । मभित्र भएको आत्माले मलाई बाध्य पार्छ ।
I have plenty to say, and my spirit compels me to say it.
19 मेरो छाती फुल्दै गरेको दाखमद्यझैं भएको छ जसको प्वाल छैन । नयाँ मशकझैं यो फुट्नलाई तयार छ ।
My inner being is like [SIM] a (wineskin/bag that has (new/fermenting) wine in it), and it will soon burst.
20 म ताजा हुन सकूँ भनेर म बोल्नेछु । म आफ्नो ओठ खोल्नेछु, र बोल्नेछु ।
I must speak [MTY], in order that I do not have to keep holding what I want to say; I must say something [MTY] to reply [to you all].
21 म पक्षपात गर्नेछैनँ, न त कुनै मानिसलाई आदरको दर्जा नै दिनेछु ।
I will speak [fairly], not favoring any of you, and I will not try to flatter anyone.
22 किनकि त्यस्तो दर्जा कसरी दिने हो म जान्दिनँ । मैले त्यसो गरें भने, मेरा सृष्टिकर्ताले मलाई चाँडै लैजानुहुन्छ ।
I [really] do not know how to flatter people; and if I did that, God would soon get rid of me.”
