< Job 18 >

1 Then Bildad the Shuhite answered,
तब बिल्दद शुहीले जवाफ दिए र भने,
2 “How long will you hunt for words? Consider, and afterwards we will speak.
“आफ्नो कुरा तपाईं कहिले बन्द गर्नुहुन्छ? विचार गर्नुहोस्, र त्यसपछि हामी बोल्नेछौं ।
3 Why are we counted as animals, which have become unclean in your sight?
तपाईंको दृष्‍टिमा हामीलाई किन जङ्गली पशुहरू जस्‍तै मूर्ख छौं?
4 You who tear yourself in your anger, will the earth be forsaken for you? Or will the rock be removed out of its place?
तपाईंले आफ्नो रिसमा आफैलाई छिया-छिया पार्नुहुन्छ, के तपाईंको निम्‍ति पृथ्वीलाई त्यागिदिने? वा चट्टानहरूलाई तिनीहरूका ठाउँबाट हटाइदिने?
5 “Yes, the light of the wicked will be put out. The spark of his fire will not shine.
वास्तवमा दुष्‍ट व्यक्तिको बत्ती निभाइनेछ । उसको आगोको ज्वाला बल्नेछैन ।
6 The light will be dark in his tent. His lamp above him will be put out.
उसको पालमा ज्योति नै अँध्यारो हुनेछ । ऊमाथि रहेको उसको बत्ती निभाइनेछ ।
7 The steps of his strength will be shortened. His own counsel will cast him down.
उसको शक्तिका पाइलाहरू छोटा बनाइनेछन् । उसका आफ्नै योजनाहरूले उसलाई तल पार्नेछन् ।
8 For he is cast into a net by his own feet, and he wanders into its mesh.
किनकि उसको आफ्नै खुट्टाले उसलाई जालमा फल्‍नेछ । ऊ खल्‍डोतिर भौंतारिंदै जानेछ ।
9 A snare will take him by the heel. A trap will catch him.
पासोले त्यसलाई कुर्कुच्‍चोमा समात्‍ने छ । जालले त्यसलाई पसाउनेछ ।
10 A noose is hidden for him in the ground, a trap for him on the path.
उसको लागि जमिनमा एउटा पासो लुकाइएको छ । अनि एउटा पासोले उसलाई समात्‍नेछ ।
11 Terrors will make him afraid on every side, and will chase him at his heels.
त्रासहरूले चारैतिरबाट उसलाई डरमा पार्नेछन् । तिनले उसलाई पछिपछि खेद्‍नेछन् ।
12 His strength will be famished. Calamity will be ready at his side.
उसको धन-सम्पत्तिले भोकमा पुर्‍याउनेछ, र विपत्तिले उसको छेउमै पर्खिनेछ ।
13 The members of his body will be devoured. The firstborn of death will devour his members.
उसको शरीरका अंगहरू नष्‍ट पारिनेछन् । वास्तवमा, मृत्युको जेठो सन्तानले उसका अंगहरू निल्नेछ ।
14 He will be rooted out of the security of his tent. He will be brought to the king of terrors.
आफ्‍नो पालको सुरक्षाबाट उसलाई घिस्‍याइन्‍छ, र त्रासको राजाकहाँ लगिन्‍छ ।
15 There will dwell in his tent that which is none of his. Sulfur will be scattered on his habitation.
अपरिचित मानिसहरूले उसको घरभित्र गन्धक छरेको देखेपछि, तिनीहरू उसको पालमा बस्‍ने छैनन् ।
16 His roots will be dried up beneath. His branch will be cut off above.
उसका जराहरू तलतिरका नै सुक्‍नेछन् । माथिको उसको हाँगा काटिनेछ ।
17 His memory will perish from the earth. He will have no name in the street.
पृथ्वीबाट उसको सम्झना लुप्‍त हुनेछ । सडकमा उसको कुनै नाउँ हुनेछैन ।
18 He will be driven from light into darkness, and chased out of the world.
उसलाई उज्यालोबाट अँध्यारोमा धपाइनेछ, र यस संसारबाट लखेटिनेछ ।
19 He will have neither son nor grandson among his people, nor any remaining where he lived.
उसका मानिसका बिचमा उसको छोरो वा नाति हुनेछैन, न त ऊ बसेको ठाउँमा कुनै आफन्त हुनेछ ।
20 Those who come after will be astonished at his day, as those who went before were frightened.
एक दिन उसलाई जे हुन्छ, त्यसमा पश्‍चिममा बस्‍नेहरू मानिसहरू आतङ्कित हुनेछन् भने, पूर्वमा बस्‍नेहरू त्‍यसमा त्रसित हुनेछन् ।
21 Surely such are the dwellings of the unrighteous. This is the place of him who does not know God.”
निश्‍चय नै अधर्मी मानिसहरूका घरहरू यस्तै हुन्‍छन् । परमेश्‍वरलाई नचिन्‍नेहरूका ठाउँहरू यस्तै हुने छन् ।
