< Amos 6 >

1 Woe to them [that are] at ease in Zion, and trust in the mountain of Samaria, [which are] named chief of the nations, to whom the house of Israel came!
सियोनमा आरामसित बस्‍नेहरूलाई धिक्‍कार, र सामरियाको पहाडी मुलुकमा सुरक्षित भएकाहरू, जातिहरूका उत्कृष्‍टहरूमध्ये विशिष्‍ट मानिसहरू, जसकहाँ इस्राएलको घराना सहायताको निम्ति आउँछन् ।
2 Pass ye unto Calneh, and see; and from thence go ye to Hamath the great: then go down to Gath of the Philistines: [be they] better than these kingdoms? or their border greater than your border?
तिमीहरूका अगुवाहरू यसो भन्छन्, “कल्‍नेहमा जाओ र हेर । त्यहाँबाट महान् सहर हामातमा जाओ, अनि त्यसपछि पलिश्‍तीहरूको गातमा जाओ । के तिमीहरूका दुई राज्यभन्दा ती असल छन् र? के तिनका सिमाना तिमीहरूका सिमानाभन्दा ठुलो छ?”
3 Ye that put far away the evil day, and cause the seat of violence to come near;
विनाशको दिनलाई पन्‍छाउने मानिसहरू, र हिंसाको सिंहासनलाई नजिक तुल्याउनेहरूलाई धिक्‍कार ।
4 That lie upon beds of ivory, and stretch themselves upon their couches, and eat the lambs out of the flock, and the calves out of the midst of the stall;
तिनीहरू हस्तिहाडको ओछ्‍यानमा सुत्‍छन् र आ-आफ्‍ना पलङ्हरूमा आराम गर्छन् । तिनीहरू बगालबाट भेडाका पाठाहरू र गोठबाट बाछाहरू खान्छन् ।
5 That chant to the sound of the viol, [and] invent to themselves instruments of musick, like David;
तिनीहरू वीणाको सङ्गीतमा मूर्खताका गीतहरू गाउँछन्, दाऊदले झैं तिनीहरू बाजाहरूले नयाँ सङ्गीत बनाउँछन् ।
6 That drink wine in bowls, and anoint themselves with the chief ointments: but they are not grieved for the affliction of Joseph.
तिनीहरू कचौराबाट दाखमद्य पिउँछन् र उत्तम तेलहरूले आफूलाई अभिषेक गर्छन्, तर योसेफको विनाशमा तिनीहरू शोक गर्दैनन् ।
7 Therefore now shall they go captive with the first that go captive, and the banquet of them that stretched themselves shall be removed.
यसैले सुरुमा निर्वासित हुनेहरूसँगै तिनीहरू निर्वासित हुनेछन्, र मोज-मज्‍जा गर्नेहरूको भोजको अन्‍त हुनेछ ।
8 The Lord GOD hath sworn by himself, saith the LORD the God of hosts, I abhor the excellency of Jacob, and hate his palaces: therefore will I deliver up the city with all that is therein.
“म, परमप्रभुले आफैंसित यो प्रतिज्ञा गरेको छु — यो परमप्रभु सर्वशक्तिमान् परमेश्‍वर घोषणा हो, म याकूबको घमण्डलाई घृणा गर्छु, म त्यसका किल्लाहरूलाई घृणा गर्छु । यसकारण म त्यो सहरमा भएका सबै थोकसँगै त्‍यसलाई सुम्पिदिनेछु ।”
9 And it shall come to pass, if there remain ten men in one house, that they shall die.
यस्‍तो हुनेछ कि एउटा घरमा दश जना मानिस बाँकी छन् भने तिनीहरू सबै मर्नेछन् ।
10 And a man’s uncle shall take him up, and he that burneth him, to bring out the bones out of the house, and shall say unto him that [is] by the sides of the house, [Is there] yet [any] with thee? and he shall say, No. Then shall he say, Hold thy tongue: for we may not make mention of the name of the LORD.
जब कुनै मानिसको आफन्‍त तिनीहरूका लासहरू निकाल्‍न आउँछ— जसले ती लासहरू घरबाट बाहिर निकालेर तिनलाई जलाउँछ— उसले त्‍यस घरमा भएको मानिसलाई सोध्‍छ, “के तिमीसँग अरू कोही बाँकी छ?” तब त्‍यो मानिसले भन्छ, “छैन ।” त्‍यसपछि उसले भन्‍नेछ, “चुप लाग, किनकि हामीले परमप्रभुको नाउँ लिनुहुँदैन ।”
11 For, behold, the LORD commandeth, and he will smite the great house with breaches, and the little house with clefts.
किनकि, हेर, परमप्रभुले एउटा आज्ञा दिनुहुनेछ, र ठुलो घर टुक्रा-टुक्रा हुनेछ, र सानो घरचाहिं धूलोपिठो हुनेछ ।
12 Shall horses run upon the rock? will [one] plow [there] with oxen? for ye have turned judgment into gall, and the fruit of righteousness into hemlock:
के घोडाहरू ठाडो चट्टानहरूमा दौडन्‍छन् र? के कसैले त्यहाँ गोरू जोत्‍छ? तापनि तिमीहरूले न्यायलाई विष अनि धार्मिकताको फललाई तिक्‍ततामा परिणत गरेका छौ ।
13 Ye which rejoice in a thing of nought, which say, Have we not taken to us horns by our own strength?
लो-देबारको पराजयमा आनन्द मनाउनेहरू, जसले भन्छन्, “के हामीले आफ्नै शक्तिले कार्नैमलाई लिएनौं र?”
14 But, behold, I will raise up against you a nation, O house of Israel, saith the LORD the God of hosts; and they shall afflict you from the entering in of Hemath unto the river of the wilderness.
“तर ए इस्राएलका घराना, हेर, म तिमीहरूका विरुद्धमा एउटा जातिलाई खडा गर्नेछु— परमप्रभु सर्वशक्‍तमान् परमेश्‍वरको घोषणा हो । तिनीहरूले तिमीहरूलाई लेबो-हमातदेखि अराबाको खोलासम्मै पीडा दिनेछन् ।”
