< Lamentations 1 >
1 See her seated by herself, the town which was full of people! She who was great among the nations has become like a widow! She who was a princess among the countries has come under the yoke of forced work!
एक पटक मानिसहरूले भरिपूर्ण सहर अहिले सुनसान बसिरहेको छ । त्यो शक्तिशाली जाति भए तापनि विधवाजस्तै भएको छ । त्यो जाति-जातिहरूका बिचमा राजकुमारीजस्तै थियो, तर अहिले जबरजस्ती दासत्वमा लगिएको छ ।
2 She is sorrowing bitterly in the night, and her face is wet with weeping; among all her lovers she has no comforter: all her friends have been false to her, they have become her haters.
त्यो रातमा रुन्छ र विलाप गर्छ, अनि त्यसको आँसुले गला भरिन्छ । त्यसको कुनै पनि प्रेमीले त्यसलाई सान्त्वना दिँदैन । त्यसका सबै मित्रले त्यसलाई धोका दिएका छन् । तिनीहरू त्यसका शत्रुहरू भएका छन् ।
3 Judah has been taken away as a prisoner because of trouble and hard work; her living-place is among the nations, there is no rest for her: all her attackers have overtaken her in a narrow place.
गरिबी र वेदनापछि यहूदा निर्वासनमा गएको छ । त्यो जाति-जातिहरूका बिचमा बस्छ, र त्यसले चैन पाउँदैन । त्यसलाई खेद्नहरू सबैले त्यसको घोर निराशामा त्यसलाई पक्रे ।
4 The ways of Zion are sad, because no one comes to the holy meeting; all her doorways are made waste, her priests are breathing out sorrow: her virgins are troubled, and it is bitter for her.
सियोनका सडकहरूले शोक गर्छन्, किनकि कुनै पनि तोकिएका चाडहरूमा आउँदैन । त्यसका सबै मूल ढोका उजाड भएका छन् । त्यसका पुजारीहरू सुस्केरा हाल्दछन् । त्यसका कन्याहरू शोकित छन्, र त्यो आफै नै बिलकुल निराशामा छ ।
5 Those who are against her have become the head, everything goes well for her haters; for the Lord has sent sorrow on her because of the great number of her sins: her young children have gone away as prisoners before the attacker.
त्यसका वैरीहरू त्यसको मालिक भएका छन् । त्यसका शत्रुहरूको उन्नति हुन्छ । त्यसका धेरै पापको कारण परमप्रभुले त्यसलाई कष्ट दिनुभएको छ । त्यसका स-साना बालबच्चाहरू त्यसको वैरीकहाँ निर्वासनमा जान्छन् ।
6 And all her glory has gone from the daughter of Zion: her rulers have become like harts with no place for food, and they have gone in flight without strength before the attacker.
सौन्दर्यले सियोनकी छोरीलाई छोडेको छ । त्यसका राजकुमारहरू खर्क पाउन नसक्ने मृगहरूजस्तै भएका छन्, र तिनीहरू दुर्बल भएर तिनीहरूलाई खेद्नेको अगिअगि भाग्छन् ।
7 Jerusalem keeps in mind, in the days of her sorrow and of her wanderings, all the desired things which were hers in days gone by; when her people came into the power of her hater and she had no helper, her attackers saw their desire effected on her and made sport of her destruction.
त्यसले कष्ट पाएको र घरवारविहीन भएको दिनमा यरूशलेमले आफूसित अगिल्ला दिनमा भएका त्यसका सबै बहुमूल्य खजानाहरूलाई सम्झने छ । त्यसका मानिसहरू वैरीको हातमा पर्दा कसैले त्यसलाई सहायता गरेन । वैरीहरूले त्यसलाई देखे, र त्यसको विनाशमा हाँसे ।
8 Great is the sin of Jerusalem; for this cause she has become an unclean thing: all those who gave her honour are looking down on her, because they have seen her shame: now truly, breathing out grief, she is turned back.
यरूशलेमले घोर पाप गर्यो । त्यो अशुद्ध वस्तुजस्तै तिरस्कृत भएको छ । त्यसलाई आदर गर्ने सबैले अहिले त्यसलाई तिरस्कार गर्छ, किनकि तिनीहरूले त्यसको नग्नता देखेका छन् । त्यसले सुस्केरा हाल्छ, र भाग्ने कोसिस गर्छ ।
9 In her skirts were her unclean ways; she gave no thought to her end; and her fall has been a wonder; she has no comforter: see her sorrow, O Lord; for the attacker is lifted up.
त्यसको फरियाभित्र त्यो अशुद्ध भएको छ । त्यसले आफ्नो भविष्यको विषयमा सोचेन । त्यसको पतन डरलाग्दो थियो । त्यसलाई सान्त्वना दिने कोही थिएन । त्यो चिच्च्यायो, “हे परमप्रभु, मेरो कष्टलाई हेर्नुहोस्, किनकि शत्रु अति महान् भएको छ ।”
10 The hand of her hater is stretched out over all her desired things; for she has seen that the nations have come into her holy place, about whom you gave orders that they were not to come into the meeting of your people.
वैरीले हाम्रा सबै बहुमूल्य खजानामा आफ्नो हात हालेको छ । तपाईंको पवित्र सभामा जाति-जातिहरू प्रवेश गर्नुहुँदैन भनी तपाईंले आज्ञा दिनुभए तापनि त्यसले आफ्नो पवित्रस्थानमा तिनीहरू प्रवेश गरेको देखेको छ ।
11 Breathing out grief all her people are looking for bread; they have given their desired things for food to give them life: see, O Lord, and take note; for she has become a thing of shame.
त्यसका सबै मानिसले रोटीको खोजी गर्दा तिनीहरू सुस्केरा हाल्छन् । आफ्ना प्राण बचाउनलाई खानाको लागि तिनीहरूले आफ्ना बहुमूल्य खजानाहरू दिएका छन् । हे परमप्रभु, हेर्नुहोस्, र मलाई विचार गर्नुहोस्, किनकि म बेकम्मा भएको छु ।
12 Come to me, all you who go by! Keep your eyes on me, and see if there is any pain like the pain of my wound, which the Lord has sent on me in the day of his burning wrath.
यताबाट भएर जाने तिमीहरू सबैलाई के यसको वास्ता छैन? मलाई दिइएको शोकजस्तै कसैको शोक छ कि छैन भनेर हेर र विचार गर, किनकि परमप्रभुले आफ्नो भयङ्कर क्रोधको दिनमा मलाई यातना दिनुभएको छ ।
13 From on high he has sent fire into my bones, and it has overcome them: his net is stretched out for my feet, I am turned back by him; he has made me waste and feeble all the day.
उहाँले उच्चबाट मेरा हड्डीमा आगो सल्काउनुभएको छ, र यसले तिनलाई जितेको छ । उहाँले मेरो खुट्टाको लागि जाल फिँजाउनुभएको छ, र मलाई फर्काउनुभएको छ । उहाँले मलाई निरन्तर रूपमा उजाड र कमजोर बनाउनुभएको छ ।
14 A watch is kept on my sins; they are joined together by his hand, they have come on to my neck; he has made my strength give way: the Lord has given me up into the hands of those against whom I have no power.
मेरा आज्ञा उल्लङ्घनहरूको जुवालाई उहाँको हातद्वारा बाँधिएको छ । ती सँगसँग बाँधिएर मेरो काँधमा राखिएका छन् । उहाँले मेरो बललाई असफल तुल्याइदिनुभएको छ । परमप्रभुले मलाई तिनीहरूका हातमा सुम्पिदिनुभएको छ, र म खडा हुन सक्दिनँ ।
15 The Lord has made sport of all my men of war in me, he has got men together against me to send destruction on my young men: the virgin daughter of Judah has been crushed like grapes under the feet of the Lord.
मेरो प्रतिरक्षा गर्ने मेरा सबै शक्तिशाली मानिसलाई परमप्रभुले एकातिर फ्याँकिदिनुभएको छ । मेरा हट्टाकट्टा मानिसहरूलाई धूलोपिठो पार्न उहाँले मेरो विरुद्धमा सभा बोलाउनुभएको छ । परमप्रभुले यहूदाका कन्या-छोरीहरूलाई दाखको कोलमा कुल्चिमिल्ची पार्नुभएको छ ।
16 For these things I am weeping; my eye is streaming with water; because the comforter who might give me new life is far from me: my children are made waste, because the hater is strong.
यिनै कुराहरूको लागि म रुन्छु; मेरा आँखा आँसुको धारा बहन्छ । किनकि मलाई सान्त्वना दिने र मेरो जीवनलाई पुनर्स्थापित गर्ने मबाट निकै टाढा छ । शत्रुले मलाई परास्त गरेकोले मेरा बालबच्चा बेसहारा छन् ।
17 Zion's hands are outstretched; she has no comforter; the Lord has given orders to the attackers of Jacob round about him: Jerusalem has become like an unclean thing among them.
सियोनले आफ्ना हात फैलाएको छ । त्यसलाई सान्त्वना दिने कोही छैन । याकूबको वरिपरि हुनेहरू त्यसका वैरीहरू होऊन् भनी परमप्रभुले आज्ञा दिनुभएको छ । यरूशलेम तिनीहरूका लागि अशुद्ध छ ।
18 The Lord is upright; for I have gone against his orders: give ear, now, all you peoples, and see my pain, my virgins and my young men have gone away as prisoners.
परमप्रभु धर्मी हुनुहुन्छ, किनकि म उहाँको आज्ञाको विरुद्धमा बागी भएको छु । हे सबै मानिस हो, सुन र मेरो शोकलाई विचार गर । मेरा कन्याहरू र हट्टाकट्टा मानिसहरू निर्वासनमा गएका छन् ।
19 I sent for my lovers, but they were false to me: my priests and my responsible men were breathing their last breath in the town, while they were looking for food to give them new life.
मैले मेरा मित्रहरूलाई बोलाएँ, तर तिनीहरू मप्रति धोकेबाज निस्किए । मेरा पुजारीहरू र मेरा धर्म-गुरुहरूले आफ्ना प्राण बचाउनको लागि खानाको खोजी गर्दा तिनीहरू सहरमा नै नष्ट भए ।
20 See, O Lord, for I am in trouble; the inmost parts of my body are deeply moved; my heart is turned in me; for I have been uncontrolled: outside the children are put to the sword, and in the house there is death.
हे परमप्रभु, हेर्नुहोस्, किनकि म निराशामा छु । मेरो पेट हुँडल्छ । मेरो हृदय मभित्रै छटपटिन्छ, किनकि म ज्यादै विद्रोही भएको छु । बाहिर तरवारले आमालाई नष्ट पार्छ, घरभित्र केवल मृत्यु छ ।
21 Give ear to the voice of my grief; I have no comforter; all my haters have news of my troubles, they are glad because you have done it: let the day of fate come when they will be like me.
तिनीहरूले मेरो सुस्केरा सुनेका छन्, तर मलाई सान्त्वना दिने कोही छैन । मेरा सबै शत्रुले मेरो कष्टको विषयमा सुनेका छन्, र तपाईंले यसो गर्नुभएकोमा तिनीहरू खुसी छन् । तपाईंले प्रतिज्ञा गर्नुभएको दिन तपाईंले ल्याउनुभएको छ । अब तिनीहरू मजस्तै होऊन् ।
22 Let all their evil-doing come before you; do to them as you have done to me for all my sins: for loud is the sound of my grief, and the strength of my heart is gone.
तिनीहरूका सबै दुष्टता तपाईंको सामु आऊन् । मेरा सबै आज्ञा उल्लङ्घनको कारणले तपाईंले मलाई व्यवहार गर्नुभएझैँ तिनीहरूसित व्यवहार गर्नुहोस् । मेरा सुस्केरा धेरै छन्, र मेरो हृदय मुर्छा परेको छ ।
