< Nahum 3 >
1 Woe to the city of blood, filled with all manner of lies and violence. Crime shall not depart from you:
रगतले भरिएको सहरलाई धिक्कार! त्यो झूट र लूटको सम्पत्तिले भरिएको छ । त्यसका शिकारहरू सधैँ त्यहीँभित्र छन् ।
2 the voice of the whip, and the voice of the turning wheels, and of the neighing horse, and the burning chariot, and the horsemen who ride,
तर अब त्यहाँबाट कोर्राहरूको, तेज पाङ्ग्राहरू, उफ्रदै गरेका घोडाहरू, र रथहरूको कुदाइको आवाज आउँछन् ।
3 and of the flashing sword and the shining spear, and of a multitude executed and a grievous ruination. Neither is there an end to the dead bodies, and they will fall down upon their dead bodies.
आक्रमण गर्ने घोडचढीहरू, टल्कने तरवारहरू, चम्कने भालाहरू, लास र मुर्दाहरूको थुप्रो त्यहाँ छन् । त्यहाँ अनगिन्ती लाशहरू छन् । त्यसलाई आक्रमण गर्नेहरू लाशमा ठोकर खाँदै हिँड्छन् ।
4 Because of the multitude of fornications of the kept woman, beautiful and pleasing and practicing evil deeds, who sold nations by her fornications, and families by her evil doing:
टुनामुनामा निपुण, त्यो सुन्दर वेश्या, जसले आफ्नो, र टुनामुनाले जाति-जातिहरूलाई बेच्छे, त्यसको कामवासनापूर्ण कामहरूका कारण यो भइरहेको छ ।
5 behold, I will come to you, says the Lord of hosts, and I will reveal your shame to your face, and I will show your nakedness to the Gentiles, and your disgrace to kingdoms.
सेनाहरूका परमप्रभु घोषणा गर्नुहुन्छ, “हेर्, म तेरो विरुद्ध छु । म तेरो फरियालाई तेरो अनुहारभन्दा माथिसम्म उचालिदिनेछु र तेरा गुप्तांगहरू जाति-जातिहरूलाई, र तेरो शर्म राज्यहरूलाई देखाइदिनेछु ।
6 And I will cast abominations over you, and I will afflict you with abuse, and I will make an example of you.
म तँमाथि घिनलाग्दो फोहोर फ्याँक्नेछु र तँलाई घृणित बनाइदिनेछु । म तँलाई यस्तो बनाउनेछु, कि सबैले तँलाई हेर्नेछन् ।
7 And this shall be: everyone who sees you, will recoil from you, and he will say: “Nineveh has been devastated.” Who will shake his head over you? Where might I seek consolation for you?
तँलाई हेर्ने सबै तँबाट टाढा भाग्नेछन् र भन्नेछन्, ‘निनवे नष्ट भएको छ, त्यसको निम्ति कसले विलौना गर्ला?’ तँलाई शान्त्वना दिने मैले कहाँ पाउन सक्छु?”
8 Are you better than the populous Alexandria, which dwells along the rivers? Waters encircle it: the sea, with its riches. The waters are its walls.
निनवे, के तँ नील नदीको किनारमा बनाइएको नो शहरभन्दा असल छस्, त्यो शहर जसको वरिपरि पानी थियो, जसको सुरक्षा सागर, र जसको पर्खाल समुद्र थियो?
9 Ethiopia and Egypt were its strength, and there is no limit. Africa and Northern Africa have been your helpers.
कूश र मिश्र त्यसका शक्ति थिए, र त्यसको कुनै अन्त थिएन । पूत र लिबिया त्यसका मित्रराष्ट्रहरू थिए ।
10 Nevertheless, she has been led away with the transmigration into captivity. Her little ones have been dashed in pieces at the top of every street, and they have cast lots over her celebrities, and all her elite have been fastened together in shackles.
तथापि नो शहर निर्वासनमा लगियो, त्यो दासत्वमा लगियो, त्यसका छोराछोरीहरू हरेक सडकहरूका मुखमा टुक्रा-टुक्रा पारिए । त्यसका शत्रुहरूले त्यसका भारदारहरूका निम्ति चिट्ठा हाले, र त्यसका सबै महान् मानिसहरू साङ्लाले बाँधिए ।
11 Therefore, you also will become inebriated, and you will be despised, and you will seek help from the opposition.
तँ मतवाला हुनेछस्, तँ लुक्न कोसिस गर्नेछस्, र तैँले आफ्नो शत्रुबाट भाग्नलाई शरणस्थान खोज्नेछस् ।
12 All your fortresses will be like fig trees with their green figs. If they are shaken violently, they will fall into the mouth of the one who devours.
तेरा सबै किल्लाहरू पहिले नै फल पाकेका अन्जिरका रूखहरूझैँ हुनेछन् । ती हल्लाइए भने, त्यसका सबै फल खानेवालाको मुखमा झर्नेछन् ।
13 Behold, women are at the center of your people. The gates of your land will be opened wide for your enemies; fire will devour your bars.
हेर्, तेरा बिचमा भएका मानिसहरू स्त्रीहरू मात्र छन् । तेरो देशका प्रवेशद्धारहरु शत्रुहरूका निम्ति खुला भएका छन् । आगोले त्यसका गजबारहरू भस्म पारेको छ ।
14 Draw in water because of the blockade; build up your fortresses. Go into the clay and tread; work it to make brick.
घेरावन्दीको दिनको निम्ति पानी भर्, आफ्ना किल्लाहरू बलियो पार् । हिलोमा जा, र त्यसलाई कुल्ची । इट बनाउने भाँडो बोक् ।
15 There, fire will devour you. You will perish by the sword; it will devour you like the beetle. Gather together like the beetle. Multiply like the locust.
आगोले तँलाई त्यहाँ भस्म पार्नेछ, र तरवारले तँलाई नाश गर्नेछ । सलहहरूले सबै कुरा सखाप पारेझैँ त्यसले तँलाई सखाप पार्नेछ । फटेङ्ग्राहरू जस्ता अनगिन्ती हो, र सलाहहरूझैँ संख्यामा बढ् ।
16 You have made more negotiations than there are stars in the sky. The beetle has spread out and flown away.
तैँले आफ्ना व्यापारीहरूलाई आकाशका ताराहरूभन्दा पनि धेरै बनाएको छस्, तर तिनीहरू सलहहरूझैँ हुन्, तिनीहरूले भुमिलाई लुटेर उडिजान्छन् ।
17 Your guardians are like locusts, and your little ones are like locusts among locusts, which alight on hedges on a cold day. The sun rose up, and they flew away, and there was no way to know the place where they had been.
तेरा राजकुमारहरू सलहहरूझैँ धेरै छन्, र तेरा अधिकारीहरू सलहका बथानझैँ छन्, जो चिसो दिनमा पर्खालहरूमा बस्छन् । तर घाम उदाएपछि ती कहाँ उडेर जान्छन् भन्ने नै थाहा हुँदैन ।
18 Your shepherds have become drowsy, king Assur. Your princes will be buried. Your people have remained hidden in the mountains, and there is no one to gather them.
अश्शूरको राजा, तेरा गोठालाहरू सुतेका छन्, तेरा शासकहरू विश्राम गर्दै पल्टेका छन् । तेरा मानिसहरू पर्वतहरूमा छरिएका छन्, र तिनीहरूलाई त्यहाँ भेला गर्ने कोही छैन ।
19 Your destruction is not hidden; your wound is grievous. All who have heard of your fame have clenched their hands over you, because over whom has your wickedness not trampled continually?
तेरा घाउहरू निको हुँदैनन् । ती गहिरा छन् । तेरो विषयमा सुन्ने सबैले रमाहटले ताली बजाउँछन् । तेरो लगातारको दुष्टताबाट को भागेको छ र?
