< अय्यूब 36 >
1 एलीहूले निरन्तर बोले र यसो भने,
Elihu continued on and said,
2 “मलाई अरू थोरै समय बोल्न दिनुहोस्, र म तपाईंहरूलाई केही कुरा देखाउनेछु, किनकि परमेश्वरको समर्थनमा मैले अलिकति अरू भन्नुछ ।
“Permit me to speak a little longer, and I will show you some things because I have a little more to say in defense of God.
3 म धेरै टाढाबाट आफ्नो ज्ञान प्राप्त गर्नेछु । धार्मिकता मेरा सृष्टिकर्ताको हो भनी म स्वीकार गर्छु ।
I will obtain my knowledge from far off; I will acknowledge that righteousness belongs to my Maker.
4 किनकि वास्तवमा नै मेरा शब्दहरू झुटा हुनेछैनन् । ज्ञानमा परिपक्व कोही एक जना तपाईंहरूसँग हुनुहुन्छ ।
For indeed, my words will not be false; someone who is mature in knowledge is with you.
5 हेर्नुहोस्, परमेश्वर शक्तिशाली हुनुहुन्छ, र उहाँले कसैलाई तिरस्कार गर्नुहुन्न । समझशक्तिको ताकतमा उहाँ शक्तिशाली हुनुहुन्छ ।
See, God is mighty, and despises no one; he is mighty in strength of understanding.
6 दुष्ट मानिसहरूका जीवनलाई उहाँले जोगाउनुहुन्न, बरु, दुःख भोग्नेहरूका लागि जे ठिक हुन्छ, त्यही गर्नुहुन्छ ।
He does not preserve the life of wicked people but instead does what is right for those who suffer.
7 उहाँले धर्मी मानिसहरूबाट आफ्नो दृष्टि हटाउनुहुन्न, तर त्यसको साटोमा राजालाई झैं तिनीहरूलाई सधैंभरि सिंहासनमा राख्नुहुन्छ, र तिनीहरू माथि उचालिन्छन् ।
He does not withdraw his eyes from righteous people but instead sets them on thrones like kings forever, and they are lifted up.
8 तिनीहरू साङ्लाले बाँधिए अनि दुःखका डोरीमा अल्झिए भने,
If they are bound in chains and trapped in cords of suffering,
9 तब तिनीहरूले जे गरेका हुन्छन्, अनि तिनीहरूका अपराध र तिनीहरूका घमण्ड, उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई प्रकट गर्नुहुन्छ ।
then he reveals to them what they have done, and their transgressions and their pride.
10 उहाँको निर्देशन सुन्नलाई उहाँले तिनीहरूका कान खुल्ला गर्नुहुन्छ, र अधर्मबाट फर्कन तिनीहरूलाई आदेश दिनुहुन्छ ।
He also opens their ears to his instruction, and commands them to turn back from iniquity.
11 तिनीहरूले उहाँको सोर सुने अनि उहाँको आराधना गरे भने, तिनीहरूले आफ्नो समय समृद्धिमा, र आफ्ना वर्षहरू सन्तुष्टिमा बिताउनेछन् ।
If they listen to him and worship him, they will spend their days in prosperity, their years in contentment.
12 यद्यपि, तिनीहरू सुन्दैनन् भने, तिनीहरू तरवारले नष्ट पारिनेछन् । तिनीहरूसँग ज्ञान नभएको हुनाले तिनीहरू मर्नेछन् ।
However, if they do not listen, they will perish by the sword; they will die because they have no knowledge.
13 हृदयमा ईश्वर नभएकाहरूले आफ्नो रिसलाई थुपार्छन् । परमेश्वरले तिनीहरूलाई बाँध्नुहुँदा पनि तिनीहरू मदतको लागि पुकारा गर्दैनन् ।
Those who are godless in heart store up their anger; they do not cry out for help even when God ties them up.
14 तिनीहरू आफ्नो युवावस्थामा मर्छन् । तिनीहरूको जीवन झुटा धर्मका वेश्याहरूका बिचमा बित्छ ।
They die in their youth; their lives end among the cultic prostitutes.
15 कष्टमा परेका मानिसहरूलाई परमेश्वरले तिनीहरूका कष्टबाट छुटकारा दिनुहुन्छ । तिनीहरूको थिचोमिचोमा उहाँले तिनीहरूसँग बोल्नुहुन्छ ।
God rescues afflicted people by means of their afflictions; he opens their ears by means of their oppression.
16 वास्तवमा उहाँले तपाईंलाई निराशाबाट निकालेर, कुनै कठिनाइ नहुने एउटा फराकिलो ठाउँमा लाने इच्छा गर्नुहुन्छ, र तपाईंको टेबल मासुको प्रशस्तताले भरिपूर्ण गर्नुहुन्छ ।
Indeed, he would like to draw you out of distress into a broad place where there is no hardship and where your table would be set with food full of fatness.
17 तर दुष्ट मानिसहरूलाई तपाईं न्याय गर्न पूर्ण हुनुहुन्छ । इन्साफ र न्यायले तपाईंलाई समातेका छन् ।
But you are full of judgment on wicked people; judgment and justice have laid hold of you.
18 तपाईंको रिसले तपाईंलाई गिल्ला पाउने नबनाओस्, वा घुसको ठुलो रकमले तपाईंलाई पाखा नलगाओस् ।
Do not let your anger entice you to mockery, or the greatness of a ransom to turn you aside.
19 तपाईंको धन-सम्पत्तिले तपाईंलाई यति फाइदा दिन्छ जसले गर्दा तपाईं निराशामा पर्नुहुन्न? अर्थात् तपाईंको ताकतको सबै शक्तिले तपाईंलाई मदत गर्न सक्छ?
Can your wealth benefit you, so that you will not be in distress, or can all the force of your strength help you?
20 अरूको विरुद्धमा पाप गर्नलाई रातको इच्छा नगर्नुहोस्, जति बेला मानिसहरू आ-आफ्ना ठाउँमा मारिन्छन् ।
Do not desire the night, to commit sin against others, when peoples are cut off in their place.
21 तपाईं पाप गर्नतिर नफर्कनलाई होसियार हुनुहोस्, किनकि तपाईंले पाप गर्न नपरोस् भनेर कष्टद्वारा तपाईंको जाँच हुँदैछ ।
Be careful that you do not turn to sin because you are being tested by suffering so that you will stay away from sinning.
22 हेर्नुहोस्, परमेश्वर आफ्नो शक्तिमा उचालिनुभएको छ । उहाँजस्तै शिक्षक को छ र?
See, God is exalted in his power; who is a teacher like him?
23 उहाँको चालको विषयमा कसले उहाँलाई कदापि निर्देशन दिएको छ र? कसले उहाँलाई कदापि यसो भन्न सक्छ र, 'तपाईंले अधर्मको काम गर्नुभएको छ?'
Who has ever instructed him about his way? Who can ever say to him, 'You have committed unrighteousness?'
24 उहाँका कामहरूको प्रशंसा गर्न नबिर्सिनुहोस् जसको बारेमा मानिसहरूले गाएका छन् ।
Remember to praise his deeds, of which people have sung.
25 सबै मानिसले ती कामहरू हेरेका छन्, तर तिनीहरूले ती कामहरू टाढाबाट मात्र देख्छन् ।
All people have looked on those deeds, but they see those deeds only from far away.
26 हेर्नुहोस्, परमेश्वर महान् हुनुहुन्छ, तर हामी उहाँलाई राम्ररी बुझ्न सक्दैनौं । उहाँका वर्षहरूको सङ्ख्याको गणना गर्न सकिंदैन ।
See, God is great, but we do not understand him well; the number of his years is incalculable.
27 किनकि उहाँले पानीको थोपालाई माथि तान्नुहुन्छ, आफ्नो बाफलाई चिसो पारेर झरी पार्नुहुन्छ,
For he draws up the drops of water that he distills as rain from his vapor,
28 जसलाई बादलहरूले तल खन्याउँछन्, र मानवजातिमा प्रचुर मात्रामा पानी पर्छ ।
which the clouds pour down and drop in abundance on mankind.
29 वास्तवमा के कसैले बादलको बृहत् फैलावट, र उहाँको बासस्थानबाट निस्कने गर्जनलाई बुझ्न सक्छ?
Indeed, can anyone understand the extensive spread of the clouds and the thunder from his hut?
30 हेर्नुहोस्, उहाँले आफ्नो वरिपरि बिजुली चम्काउनुहुन्छ, र समुद्रको गहिराइलाई ढाक्नुहुन्छ ।
See, he spreads his lightning around him and covers the roots of the sea.
31 यसरी उहाँले मानिसहरूको इन्साफ गर्नुहुन्छ, र प्रचुर मात्रामा खानेकुरा दिनुहुन्छ ।
In this way he judges the peoples and gives food in abundance.
32 उहाँले बिजुलीलाई निशानामा प्रहार गर्न आज्ञा नदिनुभएसम्म त्यसलाई आफ्नो हातमा लिनुहुन्छ ।
He fills his hands with the lightning until he commands it to strike its mark.
33 यसको गर्जनले आँधी-बेहरीको चेताउनी दिन्छ, गाईवस्तुले पनि त्यसको आगमनको आवाज सुन्छ ।
Its thunder warns of the storm, the cattle can also hear it is coming.
