< Zacharias 12 >

1 The burden of the word of the Lord for Israel; says the Lord, that stretches out the sky, and lays the foundation of the earth, and forms the spirit of man within him.
इस्राएलको विषयमा परमप्रभु यस्तो घोषणा गर्नुहुन्छ, जसले आकाश बनाउनुभयो र पृथ्वीको जग बसाल्नुभयो, जसले मानिसको आत्मालाई त्यसभित्र रच्नुभयो,
2 Behold, I [will] make Jerusalem as trembling door-posts to all the nations round about, and in Judea there shall be a siege against Jerusalem.
“हेर, म यरूशलेमलाई एउटा कचौरा तुल्याउँदै छु जसको कारण त्यसको वरिपरिका सबै धरमराउनेछन् । यरूशलेमको विरुद्ध घेरावन्दी हुँदा यहूदाको निम्ति पनि त्यस्तै हुनेछ ।
3 And it shall come to pass in that day [that] I will make Jerusalem a trodden stone to all the nations: every one that tramples on it shall utterly mock at [it], and all the nations of the earth shall be gathered together against it.
त्यस दिन, म सबै जातिहरूका निम्ति यरूशलेमलाई एउटा गह्रौँ ढुङ्गो तुल्याउनेछु । त्यो ढुङ्गोलाई उठाउन खोज्ने सबैलाई गहिरो चोट लाग्‍नेछ, र पृथ्वीका सबै जातिहरू त्यस सहरको विरुद्धमा एक हुनेछन् ।
4 In that day, says the Lord Almighty, I will strike every horse with amazement, and his rider with madness: but I will open mine eyes upon the house of Juda, and I will strike all the horses of the nations with blindness.
त्यस दिन, म हरेक घोडालाई भ्रमले र त्यसमा सवारलाई पागलपनले प्रहार गर्नेछु - परमप्रभु घोषणा गर्नुहुन्छ। यहूदाको घरानामाथि म मेरो नजर लगाउनेछु, तर जाति-जातिहरूका हरेक घोडालाई म अन्धोपनले प्रहार गर्नेछु ।
5 And the captains of thousands of Juda shall say in their hearts, We shall find for ourselves the inhabitants of Jerusalem in the Lord Almighty their God.
अनि यहूदाका अगुवाहरूले आफ्ना हृदयमा यस्तो भन्‍नेछन्, ‘सेनाहरूका परमप्रभु, तिनीहरूका परमेश्‍वरको कारण यरूशलेमका वासिन्दाहरू हाम्रो बल भएका छन् ।’
6 In that day I will make the captains of thousands of Juda as a firebrand amongst wood, and as a torch of fire in stubble; and they shall devour on the right hand and on the left all the nations round about: and Jerusalem shall dwell again by herself, [even] in Jerusalem.
त्यस दिन म यहूदाका अगुवाहरूलाई दाउराको बिचको आगोको मकलझैँ र बिटाहरूको बिचमा बलिरहेको राँकोझैँ तुल्याउनेछु, किनकि तिनीहरूले वरिपरिका सबै मानिसहरूलाई आफ्नो दाहिने र देब्रेपट्टि सखाप पार्नेछन् । यरूशलेम फेरि आफ्नै ठाउँमा बस्‍नेछ ।”
7 And the Lord shall save the tabernacles of Juda as at the beginning, that the boast of the house of David, and the pride of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, may not magnify themselves against Juda.
दाऊदको घराना र यरूशलेममा बस्‍नेहरूको गौरव यहूदाका बाँकी रहेकाहरूको भन्दा बढ्ता नहोस् भनेर परमप्रभुले पहिला यहूदाको पाललाई बचाउनुहुनेछ ।
8 And it shall come to pass in that day, [that] the Lord shall defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and the weak one amongst them in that day shall be as David, and the house of David as the house of God, as the angel of the Lord before them.
त्यस दिन, परमप्रभु नै यरूशलेमका वासिन्दाहरूको रक्षक हुनुहुनेछ, र त्यस दिन तिनीहरूका कमजोरहरू दाऊदझैँ हुनेछन्, अनि दाऊदको घरानाचाहिँ परमेश्‍वरझैँ, तिनीहरूको अगि परमप्रभुका स्वर्गदूतझैँ हुनेछ ।
9 And it shall come to pass in that day, [that] I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem.
“त्यसदिन यरूशलेमको विरुद्ध खडा हुने सबै जातिहरूलाई म सर्वनाश गर्न थाल्नेछु ।
10 And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and compassion: and they shall look upon me, because they have mocked [me], and they shall make lamentation for him, as for a beloved [friend], and they shall grieve intensely, as for a firstborn [son].
तर दाऊदको घराना र यरूशलेमका वासिन्दाहरूमाथि म अनुग्रह र नम्र-निवेदन गर्ने आत्मा खन्याउनेछु, अनि तिनीहरूले मलाई हेर्नेछन्, जसलाई तिनीहरूले नै घोचेका छन् । एक मात्र छोरोको लागि शोक गरेझैँ, तिनीहरू मेरो निम्ति शोक गर्नेछन् । आफ्नो पहिलो पुत्रको निम्ति शोक गरेझैँ तिनीहरूले उनको लागि अत्यन्तै विलाप गर्नेछन् ।
11 In that day the lamentation in Jerusalem shall be very great, as the mourning for the pomegranate grove cut down in the plain.
त्यस दिन यरूशलेमको विलाप मगिद्दोको बेँसीमा हदद-रिम्मोनको विलापझैँ हुनेछ ।
12 And the land shall lament in separate families, the family of the house of David by itself, and their wives by themselves; the family of the house of Nathan by itself, and their wives by themselves;
भूमि विलाप गर्नेछ, हरेक कुलले अलग-अलग विलाप गर्नेछन् । दाऊदको घरानाको कुल अलग हुनेछ र तिनीहरूका पत्‍नीहरू पतिबाट अलग हुनेछन् । नातानको घरानाको कुल अलग हुनेछ र तिनीहरूका पत्‍नीहरू पतिबाट अलग हुनेछन् ।
13 the family of the house of Levi by itself, and their wives by themselves; the family of Symeon by itself, and their wives by themselves;
लेवीको घरानाको कुल अलग हुनेछ र तिनीहरूका पत्‍नीहरू पतिबाट अलग हुनेछन् । शिमीको कुल अलग हुनेछ र तिनीहरूका पत्‍नीहरू पतिबाट अलग हुनेछन् ।
14 all the families that are left, each family by itself, and their wives by themselves.
बाँकी रहेका कुलहरूको हरेक वंश अलग हुनेछ र तिनीहरूका पत्‍नीहरू पतिबाट अलग हुनेछन् ।”
