Isaiah 25
1 O Lord, my God art thou; I will exalt thee, I will praise thy name; for thou hast done wonderful things, resolves of distant times [are become] faithful confirmation.
हे परमप्रभु, तपाईं मेरो परमेश्वर हुनुहुन्छ । तपाईंलाई म उच्च पार्नेछु, तपाईंको नाउँको म प्रशंसा गर्नेछु । किनकि धेरै अघि योजना बनाइएका कुराहरू, सुन्दर कुराहरू तपाईंले पुर्ण विश्वस्ततासाथ गर्नुभएको छ ।
2 For thou hast made of a city a stone-heap; of a fortified town a falling ruin; the palace of barbarians ceaseth out of the city, to eternity shall it not be rebuilt.
किन तपाईंले सहरलाई एउटा थुप्रो, किल्लाबन्दी गरेको सहरलाई भग्नावशेष र परदेशीहरूका किल्ला भएको सहरलाई नाश गर्नुभएको छ ।
3 Therefore shall a strong people honor thee; the town of the tyrannical nations shall fear thee.
यसकारण बलिया मानिसहरूले तपाईंको महिमा गर्नेछन् । निर्दयी सहरका जातिहरूले तपाईंको डर मान्नेछन् ।
4 For thou hast become a stronghold to the poor, a stronghold to the needy when he is distressed; a protection from the tempest, a shadow from the heat; for the [wrathful] breath of the tyrants is like the tempest against a wall.
किनकि गरीबको निम्ति तपाईं सुरक्षाको ठाउँ, खाँचोमा परेकाको निम्ति शरणस्थान— हुरीबाट बच्ने घर र तापबाट बच्ने छहारी हुनुभएको छ । जब निर्दयीहरूको सास पर्खालविरुद्ध आँधीजस्तै थियो,
5 Like heat in a dry land, wilt thou subdue the tumult of the barbarians; as the heat [is lessened] by the shadow of the cloud, so will he subdue the song of the tyrants.
र सुख्खा जमिनको ताप जस्तो थियो, तपाईंले विदेशीहरूका आवाजलाई निस्तेज गर्नुभयो, जसरी तापलाई बादलको छायाले निस्तेज पार्छ, त्यसरी नै निर्दयीको गीतको जवाफ दिइन्छ ।
6 And the Lord of hosts will make unto all the nations on this mountain a feast of fat things, a feast of wines on the lees, of fat things full of marrow, of wines on the lees well refined.
यस पर्वतमाथि सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभुले सबै मानिसहरूका निम्ति मोटा-मोटा थोकहरू, उत्तम मद्यहरू, स्वदिष्ट मासु र मिठो मद्यको भोज तयार पार्नुहुनेछ ।
7 And he will destroy on this mountain the face of the covering which covereth all the people, and the vail that is spread over all the nations.
उहाँले मानिसहरूमाथिका छकनीहरू, सबै जातिहरूमाथि बुनिएका जालोहरू यही पर्वतमाथि नाश गर्नुहुनेछ ।
8 He will destroy death to eternity: and the Lord Eternal will wipe away the tear from off all faces; and the shame of his people will he remove from off all the earth; for the Lord hath spoken it.
उहाँले मृत्युलाई सदाको निम्ति निल्नुहुनेछ, र परमप्रभु परमेश्वरले सबैको मुहारको आँसु पुछ्नुहुनेछ । उहाँले आफ्ना मानिसहरूको अपमानलाई सबै पृथ्वीबाट हटाउनुहुनेछ, किनकि यो परमप्रभुले भन्नुभएको छ ।
9 And men will say on that day, Lo, this is our God, for whom we have waited that he would help us; this is the Lord for whom we have waited, we will be glad and we will rejoice in his salvation.
त्यस दिन यसो भनिनेछ, “हेर, उहाँ नै हाम्रो परमेश्वर हुनुहुन्छ । हामीले उहाँको प्रतिक्षा गरेका छौं र उहाँले हामीलाई बचाउनुहुनेछ । उहाँ परमप्रभु हुनुहुन्छ । उहाँको उद्धारमा हामी खुसी हुनेछौं र आनन्द मनाउनेछौं ।
10 For the hand of the Lord will rest on this mountain, and Moab shall be trodden down on his own place, even as straw is trodden down upon the dunghill.
किनकि यो पर्वतमा परमप्रभुको हातले विश्रमा लिनेछ, अनि गोबरले भरिएको खाल्डोमा पराललाई कुल्चेझैं मोआबलाई त्यसकै ठाउँमा कुल्चिइनेछ
11 And he will spread forth his hands in the midst thereof, as the swimmer spreadeth them forth to swim: and he will bring down his pride together with the joints of his hands.
पौडी खेल्नेले पौडनलाई आफ्नो हात फैलाएझैं तिनीहरूले त्यसको माझमा आफ्ना हातहरू फैलाउनेछन् । तर तिनीहरूका हातहरूका सीपहरूको बाबजुत पनि परमप्रभुले तिनीहरूका घमण्डलाई तल झार्नुहुनेछ ।
12 And the fortress of the stronghold of thy walls he bringeth down, layeth low, casteth it to the ground, even to the dust.
तेरा किल्लाहरूका अग्ला पर्खालहरूलाई उहाँले तल जमिनमा माटोमा ढाल्नुहुनेछ ।
