अय्यूब 42
1 तब अय्यूबले परमप्रभुलाई जवाफ दिए र यसो भने,
And Job answered Jehovah and said,
2 “तपाईंले सबै कुरा गर्न सक्नुहुन्छ भनी म जान्दछु, र तपाईंको कुनै पनि उद्देश्यलाई रोक्न सकिंदैन ।
I know that thou canst do everything, and that thou canst be hindered in no thought of thine.
3 तपाईंले सोध्नुभयो, 'ज्ञानविना योजनाहरू लुकाउने को हो?' वास्तवमा मैले यस्ता कुराहरू बोलेको छु, जुन मैले बुझिनँ, जुन बुझ्न मलाई अत्यन्तै गार्हो थियो, जसको बारेमा मलाई थाहा थिएन ।
Who is he that obscureth counsel without knowledge? therefore have I uttered what I did not understand; things too wonderful for me, which I knew not.
4 तपाईंले मलाई भन्नुभयो, 'अब सुन्, र म बोल्नेछु । म तँलाई सोध्नेछु, र तैंले मलाई जवाफ दिनेछस् ।'
Hear, I beseech thee, and I will speak: I will demand of thee, and inform me.
5 तपाईंको विषयमा मेरा कानले मात्र मैले सुनेको थिएँ, तर अहिले मेरा आँखाले नै तपाईंलाई देखेका छन् ।
I had heard of thee by the hearing of the ear, but now mine eye seeth thee:
6 त्यसैले म आफैलाई हीन ठान्छु । धूलो र खरानीमा बसेर म पश्चात्ताप गर्छु ।”
Wherefore I abhor [myself], and repent in dust and ashes.
7 परमप्रभुले अय्यूबसित यी वचनहरू बोल्नुभएपछि, उहाँले एलीपज तेमानीलाई भन्नुभयो, “तँ र तेरा दुई जना मित्रको विरुद्धमा मेरो क्रोध दन्किएको छ, किनकि मेरो दास अय्यूबले झैं तिमीहरूले मेरो विषयमा जे ठिक छ, सो बोलेका छैनौ ।
And it came to pass after Jehovah had spoken these words to Job, that Jehovah said to Eliphaz the Temanite, Mine anger is kindled against thee, and against thy two friends; for ye have not spoken rightly of me, like my servant Job.
8 त्यसकारण अब आफ्नो निम्ति सातवटा साँढे र सातवटा भेडा लेओ, मेरो दास अय्यूबकहाँ जाओ, र आफ्नो लागि होमबलि चढाओ । मेरो दास अय्यूबले तिमीहरूका लागि प्रार्थना चढाउनेछ, र म त्यसको प्रार्थना ग्रहण गर्नेछु, जसको कारणले तिमीहरूको मूर्खताअनुरूपको व्यवहार मैले तिमीहरूसित गर्न नपरोस् । मेरो दास अय्यूबले भनेझैं तिमीहरूले मेरो विषयमा जे ठिक छ, सो बोलेका छैनौ ।”
And now, take for yourselves seven bullocks and seven rams, and go to my servant Job, and offer up for yourselves a burnt-offering; and my servant Job shall pray for you, for him will I accept: lest I deal with you [after your] folly, for ye have not spoken of me rightly, like my servant Job.
9 त्यसैले एलीपज तेमानी, बिल्दद शुही र सोपर नमाती गए, र परमप्रभुले तिनीहरूलाई आज्ञा दिनुभएझैं गरे, अनि परमप्रभुले अय्यूबको प्रार्थना ग्रहण गर्नुभयो ।
Then Eliphaz the Temanite, and Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite, went and did according as Jehovah had said unto them; and Jehovah accepted Job.
10 अय्यूबले आफ्ना मित्रहरूका निम्ति प्रार्थना गरेपछि, परमप्रभुले तिनको सुदिन पुनर्स्थापित गर्नुभयो । तिनीसित पहिले भएकोभन्दा परमप्रभुले तिनलाई दोब्बर दिनुभयो ।
And Jehovah turned the captivity of Job, when he had prayed for his friends; and Jehovah gave Job twice as much as he had before.
11 तब अय्यूबका सबै दाजु-भाइ, दिदी-बहिनी र तिनले पहिले चिनेका सबै जना तिनीकहाँ आए, र तिनको घरमा भोज गरे । परमप्रभुले तिनीमाथि ल्याउनुभएका सबै विपत्तिको निम्ति तिनीहरूले तिनलाई सहानुभूति र सान्त्वना प्रकट गरे । हरेकले अय्यूबलाई चाँदीको टुक्रा र सुनको औँठी दिए ।
And all his brethren, and all his sisters, and all they that had been of his acquaintance before, came to him, and they ate bread with him in his house, and they condoled with him, and comforted him concerning all the evil that Jehovah had brought upon him; and every one gave him a piece of money, and every one a golden ring.
12 परमप्रभुले अय्यूबको जीवनको अगिल्लो समयमा भन्दा पछिल्लो समयमा झन् धेरै आशिष् दिनुभयो । तिनका चौध हजार भेडा, छ हजार ऊँट, एक हजार हल गोरु र एक हजार गधैनी थिए ।
And Jehovah blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning; and he had fourteen thousand sheep, and six thousand camels, and a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand she-asses.
13 तिनका सात छोरा र तिन छोरी पनि थिए ।
And he had seven sons and three daughters.
14 तिनले जेठीको नाउँ यमीमा, माहिलीको नाउँ कसीआ र कान्छीको नाउँ केरेन-हप्पूक राखे ।
And he called the name of the first, Jemimah; and the name of the second, Keziah; and the name of the third, Keren-happuch.
15 सारा देशमा अय्यूबका छोरीहरूजत्तिकै सुन्दरी कुनै स्त्रीहरू पनि थिएनन् । तिनीहरूका पिताले तिनीहरूलाई आफ्ना दाजुभाइसरह नै पैतृक-अंश दिए ।
And in all the land were no women found [so] fair as the daughters of Job; and their father gave them inheritance among their brethren.
16 यसपछि अय्यूब थप १४० वर्षसम्म बाँचे । तिनले आफ्ना छोराहरू, नातिहरू र चार पुस्तासम्मका सन्तानहरूलाई देखे ।
And Job lived after this a hundred and forty years, and saw his sons, and his sons' sons, four generations.
17 तब पुरा बुढेसकालमा दीर्घायू भएर अय्यूब मरे ।
And Job died, old and full of days.
