యోబు~ గ్రంథము 33
“But now, Job, listen carefully to all that I am going to say [DOU].
I am ready to tell you [MTY, DOU] [what I think].
I know that I am speaking honestly and that I am speaking [MTY] sincerely.
Almighty God has created me [as well as you], and his breath has caused me to live.
So, answer [what] I [say] if you can; think carefully [about how you will reply to me].
“God considers that you, and I are both [equal]; he formed both of us from clay.
So you do not need to be afraid of me; I will not crush/oppress you [by what I say] [MTY].
I have heard you [DOU] speaking, and this is what you have said:
‘I am innocent; I have not committed any sins; I am pure; I have not done things that are wrong.
But God finds reasons to accuse me, and he considers that I am his enemy.
11 ౧౧ ఆయన నా కాళ్లను బొండలో బిగిస్తున్నాడు. నా దారులన్నిటినీ కనిపెట్టి చూస్తున్నాడు” అని నీవంటున్నావు.
[It is as though] he has put my feet (in stocks/between wooden blocks to prevent me from walking away), and he watches everything that I do.’ [MTY]
But what you have said is wrong, and I will tell you [what you have said that is wrong]. God is much greater than any human.
So, (why are you arguing against God, saying ‘He never answers my questions’?/you should not be arguing against God, saying ‘He never answers my questions.’) [RHQ]
God does speak [to us] in various ways, but we do not pay any attention to what he says.
[Sometimes he speaks to us] at night in dreams and visions, when we are on our beds, asleep [DOU].
He reveals things [MTY] to us and terrifies us by the things he warns us about.
He tell us those things in order that we stop doing [evil] things and to prevent us from becoming proud.
He does not want us to be destroyed [MTY]; he wants to prevent us from dying [MTY] [while we are still young].
19 ౧౯ వ్యాధిచేత మంచం పట్టడం మూలంగానూ, ఒకడి ఎముకల్లో ఎడతెగని నొప్పులు కలగడం మూలంగానూ వాణ్ణి శిక్షిస్తాడు.
God also [sometimes] corrects us by forcing us to lie on our beds suffering much pain and with fever/aching in our bones.
The result is that we do not desire any food, not even very special food.
Our bodies become very thin, with the result that we look like skeletons [HYP], and our bones stick out.
[We know that] we will soon die and go to the place where dead people are.
23 ౨౩ మనుషులకు యుక్తమైనది ఏదో దాన్ని వాడికి తెలియజేయడానికి వేలాది దేవదూతల్లో ఒకడు వాడికి మధ్యవర్తిగా ఉంటే,
“But sometimes an angel [may come to one of us], one of the thousands of angels who come to intervene between us and God, to tell us what are the right things for us [to do].
24 ౨౪ ఆ దేవదూత వాడిపై కరుణ చూపి దేవునితో “పాతాళంలోకి దిగిపోకుండా ఇతన్ని విడిపించు. ఇతని పక్షంగా పరిహారం దొరికింది” అని గనక అంటే,
The angel is kind to us and says to God, ‘Release that person, so that he does not descend to the place where dead people are! Do that because I have found the money to pay so that he can be released!
25 ౨౫ అప్పుడు వాడి మాంసం చిన్నపిల్లల మాంసం కన్నా ఆరోగ్యంగా ఉంటుంది. వాడికి తన యవ్వన బలం తిరిగి కలుగుతుంది.
Allow his body to be strong again; allow him to be strong like he was when he was a youth!’
26 ౨౬ వాడు దేవుణ్ణి బతిమాలుకుంటే ఆయన వాణ్ణి కటాక్షిస్తాడు. కాబట్టి వాడు ఆయన ముఖం చూసి సంతోషిస్తాడు. ఇలా ఆయన మనిషికి నిర్దోషత్వం దయచేస్తాడు.
When that happens, that person will pray to God, and God will accept/answer him; he will (enter God’s presence/worship God) joyfully, and then he will tell others how God saved him [from dying].
27 ౨౭ అప్పుడు వాడు మనుష్యుల ఎదుట సంతోషిస్తూ ఇలా అంటాడు. “నేను పాపం చేసి యథార్థమైన దాన్ని వక్రం చేశాను. అయినా నా పాపానికి తగిన ప్రతీకారం నాకు కలగలేదు.
He will sing as he tells everyone, ‘I sinned, and I did things that were not right, but God did not punish me in the way that I deserved.
He has saved me from dying and going to the place where dead people are, and I will continue to enjoy being alive.’
God does all these things for us many times;
30 ౩౦ కూపంలోనుండి వారిని మళ్ళీ రప్పించాలని, మనుషులు సజీవులకుండే వెలుగుతో వెలిగించబడాలని ఇలా చేస్తాడు.
he keeps us [SYN] from [dying and] going to the place where the dead are, in order that we can continue to enjoy being alive [IDM].
So Job, listen to me; do not say anything more; just allow me to speak.
[After I speak], if you have something more that you want to say to me, say it, because I would like to find a way to declare that you (are innocent/have not done what is wrong).
But if you have nothing more that you want to say, then just listen to me, and I will teach you how to become wise.”
