अय्यूब 42
1 तब अय्यूबले परमप्रभुलाई जवाफ दिए र यसो भने,
Then 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 every thing, And that no purpose of thine can be hindered.
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 darkeneth counsel by words without knowledge? Thus have I uttered what I understood not; 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 thou, then, I beseech thee, and I will speak! I will ask thee, and do thou instruct me!
5 तपाईंको विषयमा मेरा कानले मात्र मैले सुनेको थिएँ, तर अहिले मेरा आँखाले नै तपाईंलाई देखेका छन् ।
I have heard of thee by the hearing of the ear; But now hath mine eye seen 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 when Jehovah had spoken these words unto Job, he said to Eliphaz the Temanite: “My wrath is kindled against thee, and against thy two friends; for ye have not spoken concerning me that which is right, as hath 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 ।”
Take ye, therefore, seven bullocks and seven rams, and go to my servant Job, and offer for yourselves a burnt-offering, and my servant Job shall pray for you; for to him alone will I have regard; that I deal not with you according to your folly. For ye have not spoken concerning me that which is right, as hath 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 ।
So Eliphaz the Temanite, and Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite, went and did as Jehovah commanded them; and Jehovah had regard to 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 prayed for his friends, and Jehovah gave him 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 ।
Then came to him all his brethren, and all his sisters, and all his former acquaintances, and ate bread with him in his house; and condoled with him, and comforted him over all the evil which Jehovah had brought upon him; and every one gave him a piece of money [[a kesita]], and every one a ring of gold.
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 ।
Thus Jehovah blessed the latter end of Job more than the beginning; for he had fourteen thousand sheep, six thousand camels, a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand she-asses.
13 तिनका सात छोरा र तिन छोरी पनि थिए ।
He had also 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 Jemima, of the second Kezia, and of the third Kerenhappuch.
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 an 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, even four generations.
17 तब पुरा बुढेसकालमा दीर्घायू भएर अय्यूब मरे ।
Then Job died, being old and satisfied with days.
