< Job 16 >

1 Then Job answered,
तब अय्यूबले जवाफ दिए र भने,
2 “I have heard many such things. You are all miserable comforters!
“धेरै यस्ता कुराहरू मैले सुनेको छु । सान्‍वना दिने तपाईंहरू सबैले दुःख दिनुहुन्छ ।
3 Shall vain words have an end? Or what provokes you that you answer?
के व्यर्थका शब्दहरू कहिल्यै अन्त्य हुन्‍छन् कि? तपाईंहरूलाई के भयो जसले गर्दा तपाईंहरू यसरी जवाफ दिनुहुन्छ?
4 I also could speak as you do. If your soul were in my soul’s place, I could join words together against you, and shake my head at you,
तपाईंहरू ठाउँमा हुनुहुन्‍थ्‍यो भने, तपाईंहरूले बोलेझैं म पनि बोल्‍न सक्‍थें, तपाईंहरूको विरुद्धमा शब्दहरू जम्मा गर्न र मिलाउन सक्थें, र गिल्ला गर्दै मेरो शिर हल्लाउन सक्थें ।
5 but I would strengthen you with my mouth. The solace of my lips would relieve you.
मेरो मुखले तपाईंहरूलाई बलियो पार्थें, र मेरो ओठको बरबरले तपाईंहरूलाई राहत ल्याउँथें ।
6 “Though I speak, my grief is not subsided. Though I forbear, what am I eased?
मैले बोल्‍दा त मेरो शोक कम हुँदैन । मैले बोल्न छाडें भने मलाई कसरी मदत हुन्छ?
7 But now, God, you have surely worn me out. You have made all my company desolate.
तर हे परमेश्‍वर, तपाईंले मलाई थकित पार्नुभएको छ । तपाईंले मेरा सबै परिवारलाई सर्वनाश पार्नुभएको छ ।
8 You have shriveled me up. This is a witness against me. My leanness rises up against me. It testifies to my face.
तपाईंले मलाई सुक्खा पार्नुभएको छ, जसले मेरो विरुद्धमा साक्षी दिन्‍छ । मेरो शरीरको दुब्लोपन मेरो विरुद्धमा खडा हुन्छ, र यसले मेरो अनुहारको विरुद्धमा साक्षी दिन्छ ।
9 He has torn me in his wrath and persecuted me. He has gnashed on me with his teeth. My adversary sharpens his eyes on me.
परमेश्‍वर क्रोधमा उहाँले मलाई टुक्रा पार्नुभएको, र मलाई सताउनुभएको छ । क्रोधमा उहाँले आफ्नो दाह्रा किट्नुहुन्छ । मेरो शत्रुले मलाई घुरेर हेर्नुहुन्छ ।
10 They have gaped on me with their mouth. They have struck me on the cheek reproachfully. They gather themselves together against me.
मानिसहरूले मलाई हेर्दै मुख खोलेर टोलाएका छन् । निन्दाले भरिएर तिनीहरूले मलाई गालामा थप्‍पड हानेका छन् । तिनीहरू मेरो विरुद्धमा एकसाथ भेला भएका छन्।
11 God delivers me to the ungodly, and casts me into the hands of the wicked.
परमेश्‍वरले मलाई ईश्‍वरहीन मानिसहरूका हातमा दिनुहुन्छ, र मलाई दुष्‍ट मानिसहरूका हातमा फाल्‍नुहुन्छ ।
12 I was at ease, and he broke me apart. Yes, he has taken me by the neck, and dashed me to pieces. He has also set me up for his target.
म चैनमा थिएँ, अनि उहाँले मलाई लुछ्नुभयो । वास्तवमा, उहाँले मलाई गलहत्त्‍याउनुभएको र टुक्रा-टुक्रा पार्नुभएको छ । उहाँले मलाई आफ्नो निसाना पनि बनाउनुभएको छ ।
13 His archers surround me. He splits my kidneys apart, and does not spare. He pours out my bile on the ground.
उहाँका धनुर्धारीहरूले मेरो चारैतिर घेरा हाल्‍छन् । परमेश्‍वरले मेरा मिर्गौला छेड्नुहुन्छ, र मलाई छोड्‍नुहुन्‍न । उहाँले मेरो पित्त भुइँमा पोख्‍नुहुन्छ ।
14 He breaks me with breach on breach. He runs at me like a giant.
उहाँले बारम्बार मेरो भित्तामा हिर्काउनुहुन्छ । एक जना लडाकुले झैं उहाँले मलाई झम्‍टिनुहुन्छ ।
15 I have sewed sackcloth on my skin, and have thrust my horn in the dust.
आफ्‍नो शरीर ढाक्‍नलाई मैले भाङ्ग्रा सिएको छु । मैले आफ्‍नो टाउकोलाई भुइँमा गाडेको छु ।
16 My face is red with weeping. Deep darkness is on my eyelids,
रुँदा-रुँदा मेरो अनुहार रातो भएको छ । मेरो आँखाको वरिपरि मृत्युको छाया छ,
17 although there is no violence in my hands, and my prayer is pure.
जबकि मेरा हातमा कुनै हिंसा छैन र मेरो प्रार्थना शुद्ध छ ।
18 “Earth, don’t cover my blood. Let my cry have no place to rest.
ए पृथ्वी, मेरो रगतलाई नछोप । मेरो रोदनले विश्राम नपाओस् ।
19 Even now, behold, my witness is in heaven. He who vouches for me is on high.
अहिले पनि मेरो साक्षी स्वर्गमा हुनुहुन्छ । मलाई स्‍याबासी दिनुहुने उच्‍चमा हुनुहुन्छ ।
20 My friends scoff at me. My eyes pour out tears to God,
मेरा मित्रहरूले मलाई खिसी गर्छन्, तर मेरो आँखाले परमेश्‍वरमा आँसु बगाउँछ ।
21 that he would maintain the right of a man with God, of a son of man with his neighbour!
मानिसले आफ्नो छिमेकीलाई गरेझैं, स्वर्गमा हुनुभएको त्यो साक्षीलाई यस मानिसको पक्षमा परमेश्‍वरसित बहस गरिदिन म बिन्‍ती गर्छु ।
22 For when a few years have come, I will go the way of no return.
किनकि जब केही वर्ष बितेर जान्‍छ, तब म त्यस्तो ठाउँमा जानेछु, जहाँबाट म फर्कनेछैनँ ।
