Isaiah 46
1 Bel is bent down, Nebo is falling; their images are on the beasts and on the cattle: the things which you took about have become a weight to the tired beast.
बेल झुक्छ, नेबो निहुरिन्छ । तिनीहरूका मूर्तिहरूलाई जनावरहरू र भारी बोक्ने पशुहरूले बोक्छन् । तिमीहरूले बोक्ने यी मूर्तीहरू थकित पशुहरूका निम्ति गह्रौँ बारी हुन्छन् ।
2 They are bent down, they are falling together: they were not able to keep their images safe, but they themselves have been taken prisoner.
तिनीहरू एकसाथ झुक्छन् र घुँडा टेक्छन् । तिनीहरूले मुर्तिहरूलाई छुटकारा दिन सक्दैनन् र तिनीहरू आफै कैदमा गएका छन् ।
3 Give ear to me, O family of Jacob, and all the rest of the people of Israel, who have been supported by me from their birth, and have been my care from their earliest days:
ए याकूबको घराना, मेरो कुरा सुन्, ए इस्राएलका सबै बाँकी रहेकाहरू, जसलाई मैले तिमीहरूका जन्म हुनअगिदेखि अर्थात् गर्भदेखि नै बोकेको छु ।
4 Even when you are old I will be the same, and when you are grey-haired I will take care of you: I will still be responsible for what I made; yes, I will take you and keep you safe.
तिमीहरूका बुढेसकालमा पनि उही हुँ र तिमीहरूका कपाल फुल्ने बेलामा पनि म तिमीहरूलाई बोक्नेछु । मैले तँलाई बनाएँ र म नै तँलाई बोक्नेछु । म तँलाई बोक्नेछु र म तँलाई छुटकारा दिनेछु ।
5 Who in your eyes is my equal? or what comparison will you make with me?
मलाई कोसँग तुलना गर्नेर्छस्? म कोजस्तो छु जस्तो लाग्छ ताकि हामीलाई तुलना गर्न सकियोस्?
6 As for those who take gold out of a bag, and put silver in the scales, they give payment to a gold-worker, to make it into a god; they go down on their faces and give it worship.
मानिहरूले झोलाबाट सुन खन्याउँछन् र चाँदीलाई तराजुमा जोख्नेछन् । तिनीहरूले सुनारलाई ज्याला लिन्छन् र त्यसबाट उसले एउटा देवता बनाउँछ । तिनीहरू त्यसको सामु घोप्टो पर्छन् र त्यसको पुजा गर्छन् ।
7 They put him on their backs, and take him up, and put him in his fixed place, from which he may not be moved; if a man gives a cry for help to him, he is unable to give an answer, or get him out of his trouble.
तिनीहरूले त्यसलाई आफ्नो काँधमा राख्छन् र त्यो बोक्छन् । तिनीहरूले त्यसलाई एक ठाउँमा राख्छन् र त्यो त्यहाँ खडा हुन्छ र त्यो हलचल गर्दैन । तिनीहरू त्यससँग पुकारा गर्छन्, तर त्यसले जवाफ दिन सक्दैन न कुनै व्यक्तिको कष्टबाट उसलाई छुटकारा दिन नै सक्छ ।
8 Keep this in mind and be shamed; let it come back to your memory, you sinners.
ए विद्रोहीहरू, यी कुराहरूका बारेमा विचार गर । तिनलाई कदापि बेवास्त नगर ।
9 Let the things which are past come to your memory: for I am God, and there is no other; I am God, and there is no one like me;
पहिलेका कुराहरू अर्थात् विगतका समयहरूका बारेमा विचार गर, किनकि म परमेश्वर हुँ र त्यहाँ अरू कोही छैन । म परमेश्वर हुँ र मजस्तो अरू कोही छैन ।
10 Making clear from the first what is to come, and from past times the things which have not so far come about; saying, My purpose is fixed, and I will do all my pleasure;
सुरुदेखि नै म अन्तको बारेमा, अनि अझसम्म नघटेको कुराका बारेमा पहिलेदेखि नै म भन्न सक्छु । म भन्छु, “मेरो योजना पुरा हुनेछ र मलाई जस्तो इच्छा लाग्छ त्यस्तै म गर्नेछु ।”
11 Sending for a bird of strong flight from the east, the man of my purpose from a far country; I have said it, and I will give effect to it; the thing designed by me will certainly be done.
शिकारी चरालाई म पुर्वबाट बोलाउँछु, मैले रोजेको मानिसलाई म टाढा देशबाट बोलाउँछु । हो, मैले बोलेको छु । मैले यसलाई पुरा पनि गर्नेर्छु । मैले उद्देश्य राखेको छु, म त्यो पुरा गर्नेछु ।
12 Give ear to me, you feeble-hearted, who have no faith in my righteousness:
ए हठी मानिसहरू, मेरो कुरा सुन, जो ठिक कुरा गर्नबाट टाढै बस्छौ ।
13 My righteousness is near, it is not far off; salvation will come quickly; and I will make Zion free, and give Israel my glory.
म आफ्नो धार्मिकता नजिक ल्याउँदैछु । त्यो टाढा छैन, र मेरो उद्धारले पर्खंदैन । अनि सियोनलाई मेरो उद्धार र इस्राएललाई मेरो सुन्दरता म दिनेछु ।
