< Isaiah 3 >

1 For behold, the Lord GOD of Hosts is about to remove from Jerusalem and Judah both supply and support: the whole supply of food and water,
हेर, सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभुले यरूशलेम र यहूदाबाट, टेवा र लट्टी: अर्थात् रोटीको सारा आफुर्ती र पानीको सारा आपुर्ती,
2 the mighty man and the warrior, the judge and the prophet, the soothsayer and the elder,
वीर मानिसहरू र योद्धाहरू, न्यायकर्ता र अगमवक्ता, जोखना हेर्नेहरू र धर्मगुरुहरू,
3 the commander of fifty and the dignitary, the counselor, the cunning magician, and the clever enchanter.
पचास जनाका कप्‍तानहरू र आदरणिय नागरिक, सल्‍लाहकारहरू, सिपालु कारीगरहरू र निपुण जादूगरहरू हटाउन लाग्‍नुभएको छ ।
4 “I will make mere lads their leaders, and children will rule over them.”
“युवाहरूलाई मात्र म तिनीहरूका अगुवाहरूको बनाउनेछु र जवानहरूले तिनीहरूमाथि शासन गर्नेछन् ।
5 The people will oppress one another, man against man, neighbor against neighbor; the young will rise up against the old, and the base against the honorable.
हरेक मानिस एउटाले अर्कोलाई, हरेक आफ्नै छिमेकीद्वरा मानिसहरूले अत्याचार गर्नेछन् । बालकले वृद्धको अपमान गर्नेछ र तुच्छले आदरणियलाई चुनौति दिनेछ ।
6 A man will seize his brother within his father’s house: “You have a cloak—you be our leader! Take charge of this heap of rubble.”
एक जना मानिसले आफ्नै बुबाको घरमा आफ्नै दाजुलाई समातेर यसो भन्‍ने छ, 'तिमीसँग कोट छ । हाम्रो शासक होऊ, र यो विनाश जिम्‍मा तिमीले लेऊ ।'
7 On that day he will cry aloud: “I am not a healer. I have no food or clothing in my house. Do not make me leader of the people!”
त्यो दिनमा ऊ चिच्याउनेछ र भन्‍नेछ, 'म निको पार्ने हुनेछैन । मसँग रोटी वा लुगा छैन । तिमीहरूले मलाई मानिसहरूका शासक बनाउनेछैनौ' ।”
8 For Jerusalem has stumbled and Judah has fallen because they spoke and acted against the LORD, defying His glorious presence.
किनकि यरूशलेमले ठेस खाएको छ र यहूदा ढलेको छ, किनभने तिनीहरूका बोलिवचन र कामहरू परमप्रभुको विरुद्धमा छन्, उहाँको महिमाको दृष्‍टिको विरोध गर्छन् ।
9 The expression on their faces testifies against them, and like Sodom they flaunt their sin; they do not conceal it. Woe to them, for they have brought disaster upon themselves.
तिनीहरूका विरुद्धको गवाहीहरू तिनीहरूकै अनुहारहरूमा खोज्‍नुहोस् । अनि सदोमले झैं तिनीहरूले आफ्‍ना पाप भन्‍नेछन् । तिनीहरूले त्‍यो लुकाउने छैनन् । तिनीहरूलाई धिक्‍कार! किनकि तिनीहरूले आफ्नै निम्ति सर्वनाश पुरा गरेका छन् ।
10 Tell the righteous it will be well with them, for they will enjoy the fruit of their labor.
धर्मी मानिसलाई राम्रो हुनेछ भन, किनकि तिनीहरूले आफ्‍ना कामहरूका फल खानेछन् ।
11 Woe to the wicked; disaster is upon them! For they will be repaid with what their hands have done.
दुष्‍टलाई धिक्‍कार! उसलाई खराब हुनेछ, किनकि उहाँको हातको बदला उसैमाथि पर्नेछ ।
12 Youths oppress My people, and women rule over them. O My people, your guides mislead you; they turn you from your paths.
मेरा मानिसहरू—बालबालिका तिनीहरूका अत्‍याचारी हुन् र स्‍त्रीहरूले तिनीहरूमाथि शासन गर्नेछन् । मेरा मानिसहरू, तँलाई अगुवाइ गर्नेहरूले तँलाई भड्काउनेछन् र तेरा मार्ग कता जाने भन्‍ने कुरा नै अलमलमा पार्नेछन् ।
13 The LORD arises to contend; He stands to judge the people.
दोष लगाउनलाई परमप्रभु खडा हुनुहुन्छ । मानिसहरूलाई दोष लगाउन उहाँ खडा हुनुहुन्छ ।
14 The LORD brings this charge against the elders and leaders of His people: “You have devoured the vineyard; the plunder of the poor is in your houses.
आफ्‍ना मानिसहरूका धर्मगुरुहरू र तिनीहरूका अगुवाहरू विरुद्ध परमप्रभु न्‍याय लिएर आउनुहुनेछः “तिमीहरूले दाखबारी विनाश पारेका छौ । गरीबलाई लुटेको माल तिमीहरूका घरहरूमा छन् ।
15 Why do you crush My people and grind the faces of the poor?”
तिमीहरूले मेरा मानिसहरूलाई किन कुल्चन्छौ र गरिबहरूको अनुहारहरू किन पिस्‍छौ?” यो सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो ।
16 The LORD also says: “Because the daughters of Zion are haughty— walking with heads held high and wanton eyes, prancing and skipping as they go, jingling the bracelets on their ankles—
परमप्रभु भन्‍नुहुन्छ, सियोनकी छोरीहरू घमण्डी छन्, तिनीहरू मुण्टो ठाडो पार्दै, चञ्‍चले आँखाले, हिंड्‍दा छोटो-छोटो पाइला सारेर, तिनीहरूका गोडामा भएका पाउजुका छिन्‌छिन्‌ आवाज निकाल्दै हिंड्छन् ।
17 the Lord will bring sores on the heads of the daughters of Zion, and the LORD will make their foreheads bare.”
यसकारण परमप्रभुले सियोनकी छोरीहरूका टाउकोमा घावै-घाउ पार्नुहुनेछ, र परमप्रभुले तिनीहरूलाई मुडुलो पार्नुहुनेछ ।
18 In that day the Lord will take away their finery: their anklets and headbands and crescents;
त्यो दिन परमप्रभुले तिनीहरूका सुन्दर पाउजुहरू, शिरबन्दीहरू, चन्द्रहारहरू,
19 their pendants, bracelets, and veils;
कुण्डलहरू, बालाहरू, झुम्‍काहरू,
20 their headdresses, ankle chains, and sashes; their perfume bottles and charms;
शिर ढाक्‍नेहरू, कल्लीहरू, पटुकाहरू, अत्तरदानीहरू, जन्तरहरू,
21 their signet rings and nose rings;
औंठीहरू, नत्थहरू,
22 their festive robes, capes, cloaks, and purses;
चाडका वस्‍त्रहरू, पछ्‍यौराहरू, घुम्‍टोहरू, हाते-ब्‍यागहरू,
23 and their mirrors, linen garments, tiaras, and shawls.
हाते-ऐनाहरू, मसिनो मलमल, शिरफुलहरू र मजेत्रोहरू हटाउनुहुनेछ ।
24 Instead of fragrance there will be a stench; instead of a belt, a rope; instead of styled hair, baldness; instead of fine clothing, sackcloth; instead of beauty, shame.
सुगन्धित अत्तरको सट्टामा दूर्गन्ध हुनेछ । अनि पटुकाको सट्टामा डोरी हुनेछ । राम्ररी कोरेको कपालको सट्टामा मुडुलो हुनेछ । अनि पोशाकको सट्टामा भाङ्ग्राको लुगा हुनेछ । र सुन्दरताको सट्टामा डामै-डाम हुनेछ ।
25 Your men will fall by the sword, and your warriors in battle.
तेरा मानिसहरू तरवारले मारिनेछन् र तेरा बलिया मानिसहरू युद्धमा ढल्नेछन् ।
26 And the gates of Zion will lament and mourn; destitute, she will sit on the ground.
यरूशलेमका ढोकाहरूले विलाप र विलौना गर्नेछन् । अनि त्यो एक्लो हुनेछ र भूइँमा बस्‍नेछ ।
