1 अझै एलीहूले निरन्‍तर यसो भनिरहे,
After this, Eliu again spoke in this way:
2 “जब तपाईं भन्‍नुहुन्‍छ, 'परमेश्‍वरको सामु मेरो अधिकार' तब त्‍यो न्‍यायोचित नै हो भन्‍ने विचार तपाईंलाई हुन्छ?
Does it seem right to you in your thoughts, that you should say, “I am more just than God?”
3 किनकि तपाईं सोध्‍नुहुन्छ, 'यसबाट मलाई के फाइदा हुन्‍छ?' अनि 'मैले पाप गर्दा मलाई के असल हुन्‍छ र?’
For you said, “Having done what is right does not please you,” and, “How will it benefit you, if I sin?”
4 म तपाईंलाई, तपाईं र तपाईंका मित्रहरू दुवैलाई जवाफ दिनेछु ।
And so, I will respond to your words, and to your friends who are with you.
5 माथि आकाशमा हेर्नुहोस् र विचार गर्नुहोस् । आकाशलाई हेर्नुहोस्, जुन तपाईंभन्दा माथि छ ।
Look up towards heaven and consider; also, think about the sky, which is higher than you.
6 तपाईंले पाप गर्नुभयो भने, परमेश्‍वरको के नोक्‍सान हुन्छ र? तपाईंका अपराधहरूको थुप्रो लाग्‍यो भने, तपाईंले उहाँलाई के गर्नुहुन्छ र?
If you sin, how will it hurt him? And if your iniquities are multiplied, what will you do against him?
7 तपाईं धर्मी हुनुहुन्छ भने, तपाईंले उहाँलाई के दिन सक्‍नुहुन्छ र? तपाईंको हातबाट उहाँले के ग्रहण गर्नुहुन्‍छ र?
Furthermore, if you act justly, what will you give him, or what will he receive from your hand?
8 जसरी तपाईं मानिस हुनुहुन्‍छ, तपाईंको दुष्‍ट कामले मानिसलाई नै चोट पुर्‍याउन सक्छ, र तपाईंको धार्मिकताले अर्को मानिसको छोरोलाई लाभ हुन सक्छ ।
Your impiety may hurt a man who is like you, though your justice may help the son of the man.
9 अत्याचारका धेरै कार्यहरूले मानिसहरू रुन्‍छन् । शक्तिशाली मानिसहरूका पाखुराको मदत तिनीहरूले माग्‍छन् ।
Because of the multitude of false accusers, they will cry out; and they will lament because of the strong arm of the tyrants.
10 तर कसैले यसो भन्दैन, 'मेरा सृष्‍टिकर्ता परमेश्‍वर कहाँ हुनुहुन्छ, जसले रातमा गीतहरू दिनुहुन्छ,
Yet he has not said: “Where is God, who made me, who has given songs in the night,
11 जसले पृथ्वीका जन्तुहरूलाई भन्दा बढी हामीलाई सिकाउनुहुन्छ, र जसले आकाशका चराहरूलाई भन्दा बढी हामीलाई बुद्धिमानी बनाउनुहुन्छ?'
who teaches us in addition to the beasts of the earth, and who educates us along with the birds of the air?”
12 त्यहाँ तिनीहरू कराउँछन्, तर दुष्‍ट मानिसहरूको अहङ्कारको कारण परमेश्‍वरले कुनै जवाफ दिनुहुन्‍न ।
There they will cry, and he will not heed them, because of the arrogance of the wicked.
13 परमेश्‍वरले निश्‍चय नै दुष्‍टको पुकारा सुन्‍नुहुन्‍न । सर्वशक्तिमान्‌ले त्‍यसलाई ध्यानै दिनुहुन्‍न ।
Therefore, God does not hear in vain, and the Almighty will look into each and every case.
14 तपाईं भन्‍नुहुन्‍छ, तपाईंले उहाँलाई देक्‍नुहुन्‍न, तपाईंको मुद्दा उहाँको सामु छ, र तपाईंले उहाँको प्रतीक्षा गरिरहनुभएको छ भने, उहाँले तपाईंलाई झन् कति थोरै जवाफ दिनुहोला!
And so, when you say, “He does not examine,” be judged before him, but wait for him.
15 अब तपाईं भन्‍नुहुन्छ, उहाँको क्रोधले दण्ड दिंदैन, र उहाँले अपराधलाई अलिकति पनि ध्‍यान दिनुहुन्‍न ।
For, at the present time, he does not bring forth his fury, nor does he punish sin exceedingly.
16 त्यसैले अय्यूबले मूर्ख कुरा बोल्न मात्र आफ्नो मुख खोल्‍नुहुन्‍छ । उहाँले ज्ञानविनाका शब्‍दहरूको थुप्रो लगाउनुहुन्‍छ ।”
Therefore, Job has opened his mouth in vain and has multiplied words without knowledge.
