Esias 9
1 Drink this first. Act quickly, O land of Zabulon, land of Nephthalim, and the rest [inhabiting] the sea-coast, and [the land] beyond Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles.
जो वेदनमा थियो, उसबाट नैराश्यता दूर गरिनेछ । जबूलूनको देश र नप्तालीको देशलाई, पहिलेको समयमा उहाँले होच्याउनुभयो, तर पछिल्लो समयमा उहाँले त्यसको समुद्र जाने बाटोमा, यर्दनपारि जातिहरूका गलीलमा त्यसलाई महिमित पार्नुहुनेछ ।
2 O people walking in darkness, behold a great light: ye that dwell in the region [and] shadow of death, a light shall shine upon you.
अन्धकारमा हिंड्ने मानिसहरूले एउटा ठुलो ज्योति देखेका छन् । मृत्युको छायाको देशमा बसेकाहरू, तिनीहरूमाथि ज्योति चम्केको छ ।
3 The multitude of the people which thou hast brought down in thy joy, they shall even rejoice before thee as they that rejoice in harvest, and as they that divide the spoil.
तपाईंले जातिहरूलाई वृद्धि गर्नुभएको छ । तपाईंले तिनीहरूका आनन्दलाई वृद्धि गर्नुभएको छ । कटनीको समयमा झैं तिनीहरू तपाईंको सामु आनन्दित हुन्छन्, जसरी मानिसहरूले लूटको माल बाँड्दा तिनीहरू आनन्दित हुन्छन् ।
4 Because the yoke that was laid upon them has been taken away, and the rod that was on their neck: for he has broken the rod of the exactors, as in the day of Madiam.
किनकि त्यसको भरी जुवा, त्यसको पिठ्युको नाल, त्यसको अत्याचारीको लट्ठीलाई तपाईंले मिद्यानको समयमा झैं चकनाचूर पार्नुभएको छ ।
5 For they shall compensate for every garment that has been acquired by deceit, and [all] raiment with restitution; and they shall be willing, [even] if they were burnt with fire.
दुश्मन सिपाहीका हरेक जुत्ता र रगतमा मुछिएको पोशाकलाई जलाइनेछ र आगोको निम्ति इन्धन हुनेछ ।
6 For a child is born to us, and a son is given to us, whose government is upon his shoulder: and his name is called the Messenger of great counsel: for I will bring peace upon the princes, and health to him.
किनकि हाम्रा निम्ति एउटा बालकको जन्म भएको छ, हाम्रो निम्ति एउटा छोरा जन्मेको छ, र शासन उहाँको काँधमा हुनेछ । अनि उहाँको नाउँ अचम्मको सल्लाकार, शक्तिशाली परमेश्वर, अनन्तका पिता र शान्तिका राजकुमार राखिनेछ ।
7 His government shall be great, and of his peace there is no end: [it shall be] upon the throne of David, and [upon] his kingdom, to establish it, and to support [it] with judgment and with righteousness, from henceforth and forever. The seal of the Lord of hosts shall perform this.
दाऊदको सिंहासनमा र उनको राज्यलाई स्थापित गर्न, अनि त्यसलाई न्याय र धार्मिकताले थाम्न उहाँले अहिलेदेखि लिएर सदासर्वदा राज्य गर्नुहुँदा, उहाँको शासन र शान्ति वृद्धिको अन्त हुनेछैन । सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभुको जोशले यो पुरा गर्नेछ ।
8 The Lord has sent death upon Jacob, and it has come upon Israel.
परमप्रभुले याकूबको विरुद्धमा वचन पठाउनुभयो र यो इस्राएलमा पर्यो ।
9 And all the people of Ephraim, and they that dwelt in Samaria shall know, who say in their pride and lofty heart,
सबै मानिसहरूले जान्नेछन्, घमण्डसाथ र अहङ्कारी हृदयले भन्ने एफ्राइम र सामरियाले पनि जान्नेछन्,
10 The bricks are fallen down, but come, let us hew stones, and cut down sycamores and cedars, and let us build for ourselves a tower.
“इँटहरू खसेका छन्, तर कुँदेका ढुङ्गाहरूले नै हामी पुनःनिर्माण गर्नेछौं । अञ्जीरका रूखहरू काटिएका छन्, तर तिनका ठाउँमा हामी देवदारुका रूखहरू रोप्नेछौं ।”
11 And God shall dash down them that rise up against him on mount Sion, and shall scatter his enemies;
यसकारण परमप्रभुले उसको शत्रु रसीनलाई उसको विरुद्धमा खडा हुनुहुनेछ र उसका शत्रुहरूलाई,
12 [even] Syria from the rising of the sun, and the Greeks from the setting of the sun, who devour Israel with open mouth. For all this [his] anger is not turned away, but still [his] hand is exalted.
पुर्वका अरामीहरू र पश्चिमका पलिश्तीहरू उक्साउनुहुनेछ । तिनीहरूले खुल्ला मुखले इस्राएललाई निल्नेछन् । यी सबै कुराले उहाँको रिस मर्दैन । बरु, उहाँको हात अझै पसारिएकै छ ।
13 But the people turned not until they were smitten, and they sought not the Lord.
तापनि उहाँले प्रहार गरेका मानिसहरू उहाँतिर फर्कंदैनन्, न त तिनीहरूले परमप्रभुको खोजी गर्नेछन् ।
14 So the Lord took away from Israel the head and tail, great and small, in one day:
यसकारण परमप्रभुले इस्राएलबाट टाउको र पुच्छर, खजूरको हाँगा र नर्कट एकै दिनमा नष्ट पार्नुहुनेछ ।
15 the old man, and them that respect persons, this is the head; and the prophet teaching unlawful things, he is the tail.
अगुवाहरू र भद्र मानिसहरू मुखिया हुन् । झुटो सिकाउने अगमवक्ता पुच्छर हो ।
16 And they that pronounce this people blessed shall mislead them; and they mislead them that they may devour them.
यी मानिसहरूलाई डोर्याउनेहरूले तिनीहरूलाई पथभ्रष्ट पार्छन् र तिनीहरूद्वारा डोर्याइनेहरू निलिन्छन् ।
17 Therefore the Lord shall not take pleasure in their young men, neither shall he have pity on their orphans or on their widows: for they are all transgressors and wicked, and every mouth speaks unjustly. For all this [his] anger is not turned away, but [his] hand is yet exalted.
यसकारण परमप्रभु तिनीहरूका जवानहरूसित आनन्दित हुनुहुन्न, न त उहाँले तिनीहरूका अनाथ र विधवाहरूमाथि दया गर्नुहुनेछ, किनकि हरेक व्यक्ति अधर्मी र दुष्ट छन्, अनि हरेक मुखले मूर्ख कुराहरू गर्छन् । यी सबै कुराहरूमा उहाँको रिस मर्दैन । बरु, उहाँको हात अझै पसारिएकै छ ।
18 And iniquity shall burn as fire, and shall be devoured by fire as dry grass: and it shall burn in the thickets of the wood, and shall devour all that is round about the hills.
दुष्टता आगोझैं बल्छ । त्यसले सिउँडी र काँढालाई भष्म पार्छ । यसले जङ्गलको झाडीलाई पनि जलाउँछ, जसले धूँवाको मुस्लोमा उठ्नेछ ।
19 The whole earth is set on fire because of the fierce anger of the Lord, and the people shall be as men burnt by fire: no man shall pity his brother.
सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभुको क्रोधले देश जलेको छ र मानिसहरू आगोको निम्ति इन्धनजस्तै छन् । कुनै मानिसले आफ्नो भाइलाई छोड्दैन ।
20 But [one] shall turn aside to the right hand, for he shall be hungry; and shall eat on the left, and a man shall by no means be satisfied with eating the flesh of his own arm.
तिनीहरूल दाहिने हातमा खानेकुरा समात्छन् तर तिनीहरू अझै भोको नै हुन्छन् । तिनीहरूले देब्रे हातमा खाना खानेछन्, तर अझै तृप्त हुनेछैनन् । प्रत्येकले आफ्नै बाहुलीको मासु पनि खानेछ ।
21 For Manasses shall eat [the flesh] of Ephraim, and Ephraim [the flesh] of Manasses; for they shall besiege Juda together. For all this [his] anger is not turned away, but [his] hand is yet exalted.
मनश्शेले एफ्राइमलाई, अनि एफ्राइमले मनश्शेलाई भस्म गर्नेछ । तिनीहरू एकसाथ यहूदालाई आक्रमण गर्नेछन् । यी कुराहरूमा, उहाँको रिस मर्दैन । बरु, उहाँको हात अझै पसारिएकै छ ।
