< Job 36 >

1 Continuing in a similar manner, Eliu had this to say:
एलीहूले निरन्‍तर बोले र यसो भने,
2 Bear with me for a little while and I will show you; for I have still more to say in favor of God.
“मलाई अरू थोरै समय बोल्न दिनुहोस्, र म तपाईंहरूलाई केही कुरा देखाउनेछु, किनकि परमेश्‍वरको समर्थनमा मैले अलिकति अरू भन्‍नुछ ।
3 I will review my knowledge from the beginning, and I will prove my Maker to be just.
म धेरै टाढाबाट आफ्‍नो ज्ञान प्राप्‍त गर्नेछु । धार्मिकता मेरा सृष्‍टिकर्ताको हो भनी म स्‍वीकार गर्छु ।
4 For truly my words are without any falsehood and perfect knowledge will be proven to you.
किनकि वास्‍तवमा नै मेरा शब्‍दहरू झुटा हुनेछैनन् । ज्ञानमा परिपक्व कोही एक जना तपाईंहरूसँग हुनुहुन्छ ।
5 God does not abandon the powerful, for he himself is also powerful.
हेर्नुहोस्, परमेश्‍वर शक्तिशाली हुनुहुन्छ, र उहाँले कसैलाई तिरस्कार गर्नुहुन्‍न । समझशक्तिको ताकतमा उहाँ शक्तिशाली हुनुहुन्छ ।
6 But he does not save the impious, though he grants judgment to the poor.
दुष्‍ट मानिसहरूका जीवनलाई उहाँले जोगाउनुहुन्‍न, बरु, दुःख भोग्‍नेहरूका लागि जे ठिक हुन्‍छ, त्यही गर्नुहुन्छ ।
7 He will not take his eyes away from the just, and he continually establishes kings on their throne, and they are exalted.
उहाँले धर्मी मानिसहरूबाट आफ्नो दृष्‍टि हटाउनुहुन्‍न, तर त्‍यसको साटोमा राजालाई झैं तिनीहरूलाई सधैंभरि सिंहासनमा राख्‍नुहुन्छ, र तिनीहरू माथि उचालिन्छन् ।
8 And, if they are in captivity, or are bound with the chains of poverty,
तिनीहरू साङ्लाले बाँधिए अनि दुःखका डोरीमा अल्‍झिए भने,
9 he will reveal to them their works, as well as their sinfulness, in that they were violent.
तब तिनीहरूले जे गरेका हुन्‍छन्, अनि तिनीहरूका अपराध र तिनीहरूका घमण्ड, उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई प्रकट गर्नुहुन्छ ।
10 Likewise, he will open their ears to his correction, and he will speak to them, so that they may return from iniquity.
उहाँको निर्देशन सुन्‍नलाई उहाँले तिनीहरूका कान खुल्‍ला गर्नुहुन्छ, र अधर्मबाट फर्कन तिनीहरूलाई आदेश दिनुहुन्छ ।
11 If they listen and obey, they will fill their days with goodness and complete their years in glory.
तिनीहरूले उहाँको सोर सुने अनि उहाँको आराधना गरे भने, तिनीहरूले आफ्नो समय समृद्धिमा, र आफ्ना वर्षहरू सन्तुष्‍टिमा बिताउनेछन् ।
12 But if they will not listen, they will pass away by the sword and will be consumed by foolishness.
यद्यपि, तिनीहरू सुन्‍दैनन् भने, तिनीहरू तरवारले नष्‍ट पारिनेछन् । तिनीहरूसँग ज्ञान नभएको हुनाले तिनीहरू मर्नेछन् ।
13 The false and the crafty provoke the wrath of God, yet they do not cry out to him when they are chained.
हृदयमा ईश्‍वर नभएकाहरूले आफ्‍नो रिसलाई थुपार्छन् । परमेश्‍वरले तिनीहरूलाई बाँध्‍नुहुँदा पनि तिनीहरू मदतको लागि पुकारा गर्दैनन् ।
14 Their soul will die in a storm, and their life, among the unmanly.
तिनीहरू आफ्नो युवावस्थामा मर्छन् । तिनीहरूको जीवन झुटा धर्मका वेश्याहरूका बिचमा बित्छ ।
15 He will rescue the poor from his anguish, and he will open his ear during tribulation.
कष्‍टमा परेका मानिसहरूलाई परमेश्‍वरले तिनीहरूका कष्‍टबाट छुटकारा दिनुहुन्छ । तिनीहरूको थिचोमिचोमा उहाँले तिनीहरूसँग बोल्‍नुहुन्छ ।
16 Therefore, he will save you from the narrow mouth very widely, even though it has no foundation under it. Moreover, your respite at table will be full of fatness.
वास्तवमा उहाँले तपाईंलाई निराशाबाट निकालेर, कुनै कठिनाइ नहुने एउटा फराकिलो ठाउँमा लाने इच्‍छा गर्नुहुन्छ, र तपाईंको टेबल मासुको प्रशस्तताले भरिपूर्ण गर्नुहुन्छ ।
17 Your case has been judged like that of the impious; you will withdraw your plea and your judgment.
तर दुष्‍ट मानिसहरूलाई तपाईं न्‍याय गर्न पूर्ण हुनुहुन्छ । इन्साफ र न्यायले तपाईंलाई समातेका छन् ।
18 Therefore, do not let anger overwhelm you so that you oppress another; neither should you allow a multitude of gifts to influence you.
तपाईंको रिसले तपाईंलाई गिल्ला पाउने नबनाओस्, वा घुसको ठुलो रकमले तपाईंलाई पाखा नलगाओस् ।
19 Lay down your greatness without distress, and put aside all of your power with courage.
तपाईंको धन-सम्पत्तिले तपाईंलाई यति फाइदा दिन्‍छ जसले गर्दा तपाईं निराशामा पर्नुहुन्‍न? अर्थात् तपाईंको ताकतको सबै शक्तिले तपाईंलाई मदत गर्न सक्छ?
20 Do not prolong the night, even if people rise on their behalf.
अरूको विरुद्धमा पाप गर्नलाई रातको इच्‍छा नगर्नुहोस्, जति बेला मानिसहरू आ-आफ्ना ठाउँमा मारिन्‍छन् ।
21 Be careful that you do not turn to iniquity; for, after your misery, you have begun to follow this.
तपाईं पाप गर्नतिर नफर्कनलाई होसियार हुनुहोस्, किनकि तपाईंले पाप गर्न नपरोस् भनेर कष्‍टद्वारा तपाईंको जाँच हुँदैछ ।
22 Behold, God is exalted in his strength, and there is no one like him among the law-givers.
हेर्नुहोस्, परमेश्‍वर आफ्नो शक्तिमा उचालिनुभएको छ । उहाँजस्तै शिक्षक को छ र?
23 Who is able to investigate his ways? And who can say, “You have done iniquity,” to him?
उहाँको चालको विषयमा कसले उहाँलाई कदापि निर्देशन दिएको छ र? कसले उहाँलाई कदापि यसो भन्‍न सक्छ र, 'तपाईंले अधर्मको काम गर्नुभएको छ?'
24 Remember that you are ignorant of his work, yet men have sung its praises.
उहाँका कामहरूको प्रशंसा गर्न नबिर्सिनुहोस् जसको बारेमा मानिसहरूले गाएका छन् ।
25 All men consider him; and each one ponders from a distance.
सबै मानिसले ती कामहरू हेरेका छन्, तर तिनीहरूले ती कामहरू टाढाबाट मात्र देख्छन् ।
26 Behold, God is great, defeating our knowledge; the number of his years is inestimable.
हेर्नुहोस्, परमेश्‍वर महान् हुनुहुन्छ, तर हामी उहाँलाई राम्ररी बुझ्न सक्दैनौं । उहाँका वर्षहरूको सङ्ख्‍याको गणना गर्न सकिंदैन ।
27 He carries away the drops of rain, and he sends forth showers like a raging whirlpool;
किनकि उहाँले पानीको थोपालाई माथि तान्‍नुहुन्छ, आफ्‍नो बाफलाई चिसो पारेर झरी पार्नुहुन्छ,
28 they flow from the clouds that are woven above everything.
जसलाई बादलहरूले तल खन्‍याउँछन्, र मानवजातिमा प्रचुर मात्रामा पानी पर्छ ।
29 If he wills it, he extends the clouds as his tent
वास्तवमा के कसैले बादलको बृहत् फैलावट, र उहाँको बासस्थानबाट निस्कने गर्जनलाई बुझ्न सक्छ?
30 and shines with his light from above; likewise, he covers the oceans within his tent.
हेर्नुहोस्, उहाँले आफ्नो वरिपरि बिजुली चम्काउनुहुन्छ, र समुद्रको गहिराइलाई ढाक्‍नुहुन्छ ।
31 For he judges the people by these things, and he gives food to a multitude of mortals.
यसरी उहाँले मानिसहरूको इन्साफ गर्नुहुन्छ, र प्रचुर मात्रामा खानेकुरा दिनुहुन्छ ।
32 Within his hands, he hides the light, and he commands it to come forth again.
उहाँले बिजुलीलाई निशानामा प्रहार गर्न आज्ञा नदिनुभएसम्म त्यसलाई आफ्नो हातमा लिनुहुन्छ ।
33 He announces it to his friend, for it is his possession and he is able to reach out to it.
यसको गर्जनले आँधी-बेहरीको चेताउनी दिन्छ, गाईवस्तुले पनि त्यसको आगमनको आवाज सुन्छ ।
