< Job 6 >

1 Then Job spoke again, saying [to Eliphaz],
तब अय्यूबले जवाफ दिए र भने,
2 “If all my troubles and misery could be put on a scale and weighed,
“हाय, मेरो वेदना जोखिएको भए, मेरा सबै विपत्ति तराजुमा राखिएको भए,
3 they would be heavier than all the sands [on the shores] of the oceans. That is why I spoke (very rashly/without thinking clearly) [about the day that I was born].
किनकि अहिले त्‍यो समुद्रका बालुवाभन्दा पनि गह्रौं हुनेथियो, त्यसकारण मेरा वचन समझहीन छन् ।
4 [It is as though] Almighty [God] has shot me with arrows. [It is as though] those arrows had poison on their tips, and that poison has gone into my spirit. The things that God has done to me have terrified me.
सर्वशक्तिमान्‌का काँडहरू ममा गाडिएका छन्, र मेरो आत्माले विष सेवन गर्छ । परमेश्‍वरको त्रास आफै मेरो विरुद्धमा तैनाथ छन् ।
5 Just like a wild donkey does not [complain by] braying when it has plenty of grass to eat, and an ox does not [complain by] bellowing when it has food to eat [MET], [I would not complain if you were really helping/comforting me].
के वनको गधाले घाँस पाउँदा यो निराशमा कराउँछ र? वा के गोरुले कुँडो पाउँदा यो डुक्रन्छ र?
6 People complain [RHQ] when they must eat food which has no salt or other tasteless food [MET], [and that is what your words are like, Eliphaz].
के स्वाद नभएको खानेकुरालाई नुनविना खान सकिन्छ र? वा अण्डाको सेतो भागको कुनै स्वाद हुन्छ र?
7 Just like I do not want to eat food [like that], and I loathe/detests that kind of food [MET], [I do not appreciate what you have said to me].
म तिनलाई छुन पनि इन्कार गर्छु । मेरा लागि ती घृणित खानेकुरा हुन् ।
8 “I wish that God would do for me what I have requested from him [DOU].
हाय! मैले बिन्ती गरेको कुरा मसित भए! हाय, मैले चिताएको कुरा परमेश्‍वरले दिनुभए!
9 I wish that he would crush me [and let me die]. I wish that he would reach out his hand and take away my life.
मलाई एकैचोटी धुलो पार्न परमेश्‍वर खुसी हुनुपर्छ! उहाँले आफ्‍नो हात उठाउनुपर्छ र यो जीवनबाट मलाई खतम पार्नुपर्छ!
10 If he would do that, I would be comforted by knowing that in spite of the great pain that I have suffered, I have always obeyed what [God, ] the Holy One, has commanded.
यो अझै पनि मेरो सान्त्वना होस्– म पीडामा उफ्रे पनि त्‍यो घट्‍दैन, मैले परमपवित्रको वचन इन्कार गरेको छैनँ ।
11 But now I do not have [RHQ] enough strength to endure all these things. And since I have nothing [to hope for] in (the future/this life), it is difficult for me to be patient now [RHQ].
मैले पर्खन कोसिस गर्नुपर्ने मेरो बल के हो र? मैले आफ्‍नो जीवनलाई लम्‍ब्‍याउनुपर्ने मेरो अन्त्य के हो?
12 I am not [RHQ] strong like rocks are, and my body is not made of bronze.
के मेरो बल ढुङ्गाहरूका बल हो र? अर्थात् मेरो मासु काँसाबाट बनेको छ?
13 So I am not able to help myself, and [it seems that] there is no one to rescue me.”
म आफैलाई मदत गर्न सक्‍दिन भन्‍ने कुरा सत्‍य होइन र, अनि बुद्धिलाई मबाट खेदिएको छैन र?
14 “When a man has many troubles, his friends should be kind to him, even if he stops revering Almighty [God].
मूर्छा खानै लागेको व्यक्तिलाई, त्यसको साथीले विश्‍वसनीयता देखाउनु, उसलाई पनि जसले सर्वशक्तिमान्‌को भयलाई त्याग्‍छ ।
15 But [you, ] my friends, are not dependable. You are like streams: They spill over their banks [in the spring]
तर मरुभूमिको नहरझैं मेरा दाजुभाइ मसित विश्‍वासयोग्य भएका छन्, बगेर कतै पनि नपुग्‍ने पानीको नहरझैं,
16 when [the melting] ice and snow make those streams overflow,
तीमाथि बरफ जमेको हुनाले, र तिनमा लुकेर बस्‍ने हिउँको कारणले अँध्‍यारो भएका छन् ।
17 but when the dry season comes, there is no water flowing [in those streams], and the channels dry up.
जब ती पग्लिन्छन्, ती बिलय हुन्छन् । तातो हुँदा ती आफ्नो ठाउँबाट पग्लेर जान्छन् ।
18 [The caravans of merchants] turn off the path [to search for some water], but there is no water, so they die [in the desert].
आफ्नो बाटोमा हिंड्ने यात्रु-दल पानी खोज्‍न पाखा लाग्‍छन् । तिनीहरू बाँझो भू-भागमा भौंतारिन्छन्, र नष्‍ट हुन्छन् ।
19 The men in those caravans search [for some water] because they are sure that they will find some.
तेमाबाट आएका यात्रु-दलले त्‍यहाँ हेरे, जबकि शेबाका सहयात्रीहरूले तिनमा आशा राखे ।
20 But they do not find any, so they are very disappointed.
तिनमा पानी भेट्टाउने निश्‍चयता भएको हुनाले तिनीहरू निरुत्साही भए । तिनीहरू त्यहाँ गए, तर तिनीहरू धोकामा परे ।
21 Similarly, you friends have not helped me at all! You have seen that terrible things have happened to me, and you are afraid [that God might do similar things to you].
किनकि अब तपाईं मित्रहरू त मेरा लागि केही होइन । तपाईंहरू मेरो डरलाग्दो अवस्था देख्‍नुहुन्‍छ र डराउनुहुन्‍छ ।
22 [After I lost all my wealth, ] did I ask any of you for money? [RHQ] Did I plead with any of you to spend some of your money to help me [RHQ]?
के मैले तपाईंलाई यसो भनें, 'मलाई केही कुरा दिनुहोस्?' अथवा ‘आफ्‍नो धन-सम्पत्तिबाट मलाई एउटा उपहार दिनुहोस्?’
23 Have I asked any of you to rescue me from my enemies [RHQ]? Have I asked you to save me from those who (oppressed me/treated me badly) [RHQ]? [No!]”
अथवा ‘मलाई मेरा वैरीको हातबाट बचाउनुहोस्?' अथवा 'मेरो थिचोमिचो गर्नेहरूको हातबाट मलाई मोल तिरेर छुटाउनुहोस्?'
24 “Answer me [now, and then] I will be quiet; tell me what wrong things I have done!
मलाई सिकाउनुहोस्, र म आफू शान्‍त रहनेछु । मैले कहाँ गल्ती गरें, मलाई प्रष्‍ट पार्नुहोस् ।
25 When people speak what is true, that will not hurt the person who hears it, but what you say, criticizing me, [is not true, so your saying it] proves nothing [RHQ]!
इमानदार वचन कति पीडादयक हुन्छन्! तर तपाईंका तर्कहरू, कसरी तिनले मलाई साँच्‍चै हप्काउँछन् र?
26 I am a man who has nothing to hope for, but you try to correct me, and you think what I say is nothing but wind [RHQ]!
मेरा वचनलाई बेवास्ता गर्ने योजना गर्नुहुन्‍छ, निराश मानिसका वचनलाई बतासझैं तपाईं गर्नुहुन्‍छ?
27 You do not sympathize with me at all [for all that I am suffering]. [You are heartless!] You would even gamble to see who gets an orphan [as a prize]!
वास्तवमा, तपाईं अनाथको लागि चिट्ठा हाल्‍नुहुन्‍छ, र बेच्ने सामनझैं आफ्नो मित्रको मूल्‍य तोक्‍नुहुन्‍छ ।
28 Please look at me! I will not [RHQ] lie to you.
त्यसकारण अब कृपया मलाई हेर्नुहोस्, किनकि म निश्‍चय नै तपाईंको सामु झुट बोल्दिनँ ।
29 Stop [saying that I have sinned, and] stop criticizing me unjustly! You should realize that I have not done things that are wrong.
मेरो बिन्ती छ, कोमल हुनुहोस् । तपाईंसित कुनै अन्याय नहोस् । वास्तवमै कोमलो हुनुहोस्, किनकि मेरो समस्‍या न्‍यायोचित छ ।
30 Do you think that I am lying? No, I am not lying, because I know what is right and what is wrong [RHQ].”
के मेरो जिब्रोमा खराबी छ र? के मेरा मुखले दूर्भावपूर्ण कुराहरू छुट्ट्याउन सक्दैन र?
