Isaiah 56
1 Thus said YHWH: “Keep judgment, and do righteousness, For My salvation [is] near to come, And My righteousness to be revealed.”
परमप्रभु यसो भन्नुहुन्छ, “जे ठिक छ सो गर, जे न्यायोचित छ सो गर । किनकि मेरो उद्धार नजिकै छ र मेरो धार्मिकता प्रकट हुनै लागेको छ ।
2 O the blessedness of a man who does this, And of a son of man who keeps hold on it, Keeping the Sabbath from defiling it, And keeping his hand from doing any evil.
त्यसो गर्ने र त्यसलाई दह्रोसित समात्ने मानिस धन्यको हो । उसले शबाथ-दिनलाई अपवित्र नपारी त्यसको पालन गर्छ र कुनै खराबी गर्नबाट आफ्नो हातलाई अलग राख्छ ।
3 Do not let a son of the stranger speak, Who is joined to YHWH, saying, “YHWH certainly separates me from His people.” Nor let the eunuch say, “Behold, I am a dried up tree,”
परमप्रभुको अनुसरण गर्ने कुनै परदेशीले यसो नभनोस्, “निश्चय नै परमप्रभुले मलाई आफ्ना मानिसहरूबाट बहिस्कार गर्नुहुनेछ ।” नपुङ्सकले यसो भन्नुहुँदैन, “हेर, म सुकेको रूख हुँ ।”
4 For thus said YHWH: “To the eunuchs who keep My Sabbaths, And have fixed on that which I desired, And are keeping hold on My covenant:
किनकि परमप्रभु यसो भन्नुहुन्छ, “मेरा शबाथ-दिन पालन गर्ने र मलाई मन पर्ने कुरा गर्ने र मेरो करा बलियो गरी समात्ने नपुङ्सकहरूलाई,
5 I have given to them in My house, And within My walls a station and a name, Better than sons and than daughters, I give a continuous name to him That is not cut off.
आफ्नो मन्दिरमा र मेरा पर्खालहरूभित्र छोराहरू र छोरीहरू हुनेभन्दा असल स्मारकको रूपमा तिनीहरूलाई म खडा गर्नेछु । तिनीहरूलाई कहिल्यै नकाटिने अनन्तको स्मारक म दिनेछु ।
6 And sons of the stranger, who are joined to YHWH, To serve Him, and to love the Name of YHWH, To be for servants to Him, All keeping from defiling the Sabbath, And those keeping hold on My covenant,
ती परदेशीहरू पनि जो परमप्रभुमा सहभागी हुन्छन्— उहाँको सेवा गर्न र उहाँको आराधना गर्न परमप्रभुको नाउँलाई प्रेम गर्नेहरू, हरेक व्यक्ति जसले शबाथ-दिन पालन गर्छ, र जसले त्यसलाई अपवित्र पार्दैन, अनि जसले मेरो करार बलियो गरी समाउँछ,
7 I have brought them to My holy mountain, And caused them to rejoice in My house of prayer, Their burnt-offerings and their sacrifices [Are] for a pleasing thing on My altar, For My house is called a house of prayer for all the peoples.”
— म आफ्नो पवित्र पर्वतमा ल्याउनेछु र मेरो प्रार्थनाको घरमा तिनीहरूलाई आनन्दित बनाउनेछु । तिनीहरूका होमबलिहरू र बलिदानहरू मेरो वेदीमा स्वीकार गरिनेछ । किनकि मेरो घर सबै जातिका निम्ति प्रार्थनाको घर भनिनेछ,
8 A declaration of Lord YHWH, Who is gathering the outcasts of Israel: “Again I gather to him—to his gathered ones.”
यो इस्राएलबाट बहिष्कृत भएकाहरूलाई भेला पार्नुहुने परमप्रभु परमेश्वरको घोषणा हो— तिनीहरूबाहेक अरूलाई पनि म भेला पार्नेछु ।”
9 Every beast of the field, Come to devour, every beast in the forest.
ए मैदानमा भएका सबै जङ्गली पशुहरू, वनका सबै जङ्गली पशुहरू आओ र खाओ!
10 His watchmen [are] blind—all of them, They have not known, All of them [are] mute dogs, they are not able to bark, Dozing, lying down, loving to slumber.
तिनीहरूका सबै रक्षकहरू अन्धा छन्, तिनीहरूले बुझ्दैनन् । तिनीहरू सबै भुक्न नसक्ने शान्त कुकुरहरू हुन् । तिनीहरू सपना देख्छन् र तिनीहरू ढल्केर सुत्न मन पराउँछन् ।
11 And the dogs [are] strong of desire, They have not known sufficiency, And they [are] shepherds! They have not known understanding, All of them turned to their own way, Each to his dishonest gain from his quarter:
ती कुकुरहरू निकै भोकाएका छन् । तिनीहरू कहिल्यै अघाउँदैनन् । तिनीहरू समझ नबइका गोठालाहरू हुन् । तिनीहरू आ-आफ्नै बाटोमा लागेका छन्, प्रत्येक व्यक्तिले अन्यायपुर्ण लाभको निम्ति लालच गर्छ ।
12 “Come, I take wine, And we drink, gulp strong drink, And tomorrow has been as this day, Great—exceedingly abundant!”
तिनीहरू भन्छन्, “आओ, हामी दाखमद्य र कडा मद्य पिऔं । भोलि पनि आजको जस्तै धेरै महान् दिन हुनेछ ।”
