अय्यूब 5
1 अहिले बोलाउनुहोस् । तपाईंलाई जवाफ दिने कुनै व्यक्ति छ? पवित्र मानिसहरूमध्ये कुनतिर तपाईं फर्कनुहुनेछ?
Call out now; is there anyone who will answer you? To which of the holy ones will you turn?
2 किनकि मूर्ख मानिसलाई रिसले मार्छ। सजिलै छलमा पर्नेलाई ईर्ष्याले मार्छ ।
For anger kills the foolish man; jealousy kills the silly one.
3 मूर्ख व्यक्तिले जरा गाडेको मैले देखेको छु, तर मैले एक्कासि त्यसको घरलाई सराप दिएँ ।
I have seen a foolish person taking root, but suddenly I cursed his home.
4 त्यसका छोराछोरी बिल्कुलै सुरक्षित छैनन् । तिनीहरू सहरको मूल ढोकामा कुल्चिमिल्ची पारिएका छन् । तिनीहरूलाई छुटकारा दिने कोही छैन ।
His children are far from safety; they are crushed in the city gate. There is no one to rescue them.
5 भोकाएकाहरूले आफ्नो फसल खान्छन् । तिनीहरूले त्यसलाई काँढाहरूका बिचबाट पनि बटुल्छन् । तिर्खाएकाहरूले आफ्नो धन-सम्पत्तिको तृष्णा गर्छन् ।
The hungry eat up their harvest; they even take it from among the thorns. The thirsty pant for their wealth.
6 किनकि कठिनाइ माटोबाट आउँदैन । न त भुइँबाट समस्या उम्रन्छ ।
For difficulties do not come out from the soil; neither does trouble sprout from the ground.
7 बरु, मानव-जाति कष्टकै लागि जन्मन्छन्, जसरी आगोको झिल्काहरू माथि उड्छन् ।
Instead, mankind is born for trouble, just as sparks fly upward.
8 तर मेरो बारेमा, स्वयम् परमेश्वरकहाँ नै म फर्कन्छु । उहाँमा नै म आफ्नो गुनासो समर्पित गर्छु—
But as for me, I would turn to God himself; to him I would commit my cause—
9 महान् अनि अगम्य कुराहरू गर्नुहुने, अनगिन्ती उदेकका कामहरू गर्नुहुने उहाँ नै हुनुहुन्छ ।
he who does great and unsearchable things, marvelous things without number.
10 उहाँले पृथ्वीमा वृष्टि दिनुहुन्छ, र खेतबारीमा पानी पठाउनुहुन्छ ।
He gives rain on the earth, and sends water on the fields.
11 नम्रहरूलाई उच्च स्थानमा राख्नलाई अनि शोक गर्नेहरूलाई सुरक्षित उचाल्नलाई उहाँले यसो गर्नुहुन्छ ।
He does this in order to set up on high those who are low; to raise to safety those who mourn.
12 धूर्त मानिसहरूका हातले सफलता नपाओस् भनेर, उहाँले तिनीहरूका योजनाहरूलाई विफल तुल्याउनुहुन्छ ।
He breaks the plans of the crafty people, so that their hands cannot achieve success.
13 उहाँले बुद्धिमान् मानिसहरूलाई तिनीहरूका आफ्नै धूर्त कामहरूमा पासोमा पार्नुहुन्छ । टेडा मानिसहरूका योजनाहरू अन्त्यको लागि हतारिन्छन् ।
He traps wise people in their own crafty actions; the plans of twisted people are hurried to their end.
14 तिनीहरूले दिउँसै अन्धकार भेट्टाउँछन्, अनि मध्यदिनमा पनि रातमा झैं छामेर हिंड्छन् ।
They encounter darkness in the daytime, and grope at noonday as if it were night.
15 तर उहाँले गरिबहरूलाई तिनीहरूको मुखमा भएको तरवारदेखि र खाँचोमा परेकालाई शक्तिशाली मानिसहरूको हातबाट बचाउनुहुन्छ ।
But he saves the poor person from the sword in their mouths and the needy person from the hand of mighty people.
16 त्यसैले गरिब मानिसको आशा छ, र अन्यायले त्यसको आफ्नै मुख बन्द गर्छ ।
So the poor person has hope, and injustice shuts her own mouth.
17 हेर, त्यो मानिस धन्यको हो, जसलाई परमेश्वरले सुधार्नुहुन्छ । त्यसकारण सर्वशक्तिमान्को ताडनालाई इन्कार नगर ।
See, blessed is the man whom God corrects; therefore, do not despise the chastening of the Almighty.
18 किनकि उहाँले चोट पुर्याउनुहुन्छ, र पट्टी बाँध्नुहुन्छ । उहाँले चोट पुर्याउनुहुन्छ र आफ्नै हातले निको पार्नुहुन्छ ।
For he wounds and then binds up; he wounds and then his hands heal.
19 उहाँले तपाईंलाई छवटा कष्टबाट छुटकारा दिनुहुनेछ । वास्तवमा सातौं कष्टमा पनि कुनै दुष्ट्याइँले तपाईंलाई छुँदैन ।
He will rescue you out of six troubles; indeed, in seven troubles, no evil will touch you.
20 अनिकालको समयमा मृत्युबाट मोल तिरेर, र युद्धमा तरवारको हातबाट उहाँले तपाईंलाई छुटाउनुहुनेछ ।
In famine he will ransom you from death, and in war from the hands of the sword.
21 झूट बोल्ने जिब्रोको कोर्राबाट तपाईंलाई लुकाइनेछ, र जब विनाश आउँछ, तब तपाईं त्यसबाट डराउनुहुनेछैन ।
You will be hidden from the scourge of the tongue; and you will not be afraid of destruction when it comes.
22 विनाश र अनिकाल देखेर तपाईं हास्नुहुनेछ, अनि पृथ्वीका जङ्गली जनावरहरूदेखि तपाईं डराउनुहुनेछैनौ ।
You will laugh at destruction and famine, and you will not be afraid of beasts of the earth.
23 किनकि तपाईंको खेतमा भएका ढुङ्गाहरूसित तपाईंले करार बाँध्नुहुनेछ, र वनका पशुहरू तपाईंसित मिलापमा रहनेछन् ।
For you will have a covenant with the stones in your field, and the beasts of the field will be at peace with you.
24 तपाईंको पाल सुरक्षित छ भनी तपाईंले जान्नुहुनेछ । तपाईं आफ्नो भेडी-गोठ हेर्न जानुहुनेछ र एउटा पनि नहराएको तपाईंले पाउनुहुनेछैन ।
You will know that your tent is in safety; you will visit your sheepfold and you will not miss anything.
25 तपाईंले यो जान्नुहुनेछ, तपाईंको सन्तान महान् हुनेछ, तपाईंका छोराछोरी जमिनको घाँसझैं हुनेछन् ।
You will also know that your seed will be great, that your offspring will be like the grass on the ground.
26 तपाईं आफ्नो चिहानमा पूरा बढो भएर आउनुहुनेछ । जसरी आफ्नो समयमा अन्नका मुट्ठाहरूको चाङ हुनेछ ।
You will come to your grave at a full age, like a stack of grain bundles that goes up at its time.
27 हेर्नुहोस्, हामीले यस विषयलाई जाँच गरेका छौं । यो यस्तो छ । यसलाई सुन्नुहोस् र आफ्नै निम्ति यसलाई चिन्नुहोस् ।”
See, we have examined this matter; it is like this; listen to it, and know it for yourself.”
