< Lamentations 1 >

1 How the city sits solitary, that was full of people. She has become as a widow, who was great among the nations. She who was a princess among the provinces has become a forced laborer.
एक पटक मानिसहरूले भरिपूर्ण सहर अहिले सुनसान बसिरहेको छ । त्यो शक्तिशाली जाति भए तापनि विधवाजस्तै भएको छ । त्यो जाति-जातिहरूका बिचमा राजकुमारीजस्तै थियो, तर अहिले जबरजस्ती दासत्वमा लगिएको छ ।
2 She weeps bitterly in the night, and her tears are on her cheeks; among all her lovers she has none to comfort her. All her friends have dealt treacherously with her; they have become her enemies.
त्यो रातमा रुन्छ र विलाप गर्छ, अनि त्यसको आँसुले गला भरिन्छ । त्यसको कुनै पनि प्रेमीले त्यसलाई सान्त्वना दिँदैन । त्यसका सबै मित्रले त्यसलाई धोका दिएका छन् । तिनीहरू त्यसका शत्रुहरू भएका छन् ।
3 Judah has gone into exile because of affliction and harsh servitude; she dwells among the nations, she finds no rest: all her persecutors overtook her in the midst of her distress.
गरिबी र वेदनापछि यहूदा निर्वासनमा गएको छ । त्यो जाति-जातिहरूका बिचमा बस्छ, र त्यसले चैन पाउँदैन । त्यसलाई खेद्‍नहरू सबैले त्यसको घोर निराशामा त्यसलाई पक्रे ।
4 The roads to Zion mourn, because no one comes to the solemn assembly; all her gates are desolate, her cohanim groan: her virgins are afflicted, and she herself is in bitterness.
सियोनका सडकहरूले शोक गर्छन्, किनकि कुनै पनि तोकिएका चाडहरूमा आउँदैन । त्यसका सबै मूल ढोका उजाड भएका छन् । त्यसका पुजारीहरू सुस्केरा हाल्दछन् । त्यसका कन्याहरू शोकित छन्, र त्यो आफै नै बिलकुल निराशामा छ ।
5 Her adversaries have become the head, her enemies prosper; for the LORD has afflicted her for the multitude of her transgressions: her young children have gone into captivity before the adversary.
त्यसका वैरीहरू त्यसको मालिक भएका छन् । त्यसका शत्रुहरूको उन्‍नति हुन्छ । त्यसका धेरै पापको कारण परमप्रभुले त्यसलाई कष्‍ट दिनुभएको छ । त्यसका स-साना बालबच्‍चाहरू त्यसको वैरीकहाँ निर्वासनमा जान्छन् ।
6 All majesty has departed from the daughter of Zion: her leaders have become like deer that find no pasture, they fled exhausted before the pursuer.
सौन्दर्यले सियोनकी छोरीलाई छोडेको छ । त्यसका राजकुमारहरू खर्क पाउन नसक्‍ने मृगहरूजस्तै भएका छन्, र तिनीहरू दुर्बल भएर तिनीहरूलाई खेद्‍नेको अगिअगि भाग्छन् ।
7 Jerusalem remembers in the days of her affliction and wandering all her precious things that were from the days of old: when her people fell into the hand of the adversary, and no one helped her. The adversaries saw her, they mocked at her desolations.
त्यसले कष्‍ट पाएको र घरवारविहीन भएको दिनमा यरूशलेमले आफूसित अगिल्ला दिनमा भएका त्यसका सबै बहुमूल्य खजानाहरूलाई सम्झने छ । त्यसका मानिसहरू वैरीको हातमा पर्दा कसैले त्यसलाई सहायता गरेन । वैरीहरूले त्यसलाई देखे, र त्यसको विनाशमा हाँसे ।
8 Jerusalem has grievously sinned; therefore she has become as an unclean thing; all who honored her despise her, because they have seen her nakedness: yes, she groans, and turns away.
यरूशलेमले घोर पाप गर्‍यो । त्यो अशुद्ध वस्तुजस्तै तिरस्कृत भएको छ । त्यसलाई आदर गर्ने सबैले अहिले त्यसलाई तिरस्कार गर्छ, किनकि तिनीहरूले त्यसको नग्‍नता देखेका छन् । त्यसले सुस्केरा हाल्छ, र भाग्‍ने कोसिस गर्छ ।
9 Her filthiness was in her skirts; she did not remember her latter end; therefore her fall was astonishing; she has no comforter. "Look, LORD, on my affliction, for the enemy has magnified himself."
त्यसको फरियाभित्र त्यो अशुद्ध भएको छ । त्यसले आफ्नो भविष्यको विषयमा सोचेन । त्यसको पतन डरलाग्दो थियो । त्यसलाई सान्त्वना दिने कोही थिएन । त्यो चिच्‍च्यायो, “हे परमप्रभु, मेरो कष्‍टलाई हेर्नुहोस्, किनकि शत्रु अति महान् भएको छ ।”
10 The adversary has spread out his hand on all her precious things: for she has seen that the nations have entered into her sanctuary, concerning whom you commanded that they should not enter into your assembly.
वैरीले हाम्रा सबै बहुमूल्य खजानामा आफ्नो हात हालेको छ । तपाईंको पवित्र सभामा जाति-जातिहरू प्रवेश गर्नुहुँदैन भनी तपाईंले आज्ञा दिनुभए तापनि त्यसले आफ्नो पवित्रस्थानमा तिनीहरू प्रवेश गरेको देखेको छ ।
11 All her people sigh, they seek bread; they have given their precious things for food to refresh the soul. "Look, LORD, and see, for I am despised."
त्यसका सबै मानिसले रोटीको खोजी गर्दा तिनीहरू सुस्केरा हाल्छन् । आफ्ना प्राण बचाउनलाई खानाको लागि तिनीहरूले आफ्ना बहुमूल्य खजानाहरू दिएका छन् । हे परमप्रभु, हेर्नुहोस्, र मलाई विचार गर्नुहोस्, किनकि म बेकम्मा भएको छु ।
12 Is it nothing to you, all you who pass by? Look, and see if there is any sorrow like my sorrow, which is brought on me, with which the LORD has afflicted me in the day of his fierce anger.
यताबाट भएर जाने तिमीहरू सबैलाई के यसको वास्ता छैन? मलाई दिइएको शोकजस्तै कसैको शोक छ कि छैन भनेर हेर र विचार गर, किनकि परमप्रभुले आफ्नो भयङ्कर क्रोधको दिनमा मलाई यातना दिनुभएको छ ।
13 From on high he has sent fire into my bones, and it overcame them. He has spread a net for my feet, he has turned me back. He has made me desolate and faint all the day.
उहाँले उच्‍चबाट मेरा हड्‍डीमा आगो सल्काउनुभएको छ, र यसले तिनलाई जितेको छ । उहाँले मेरो खुट्टाको लागि जाल फिँजाउनुभएको छ, र मलाई फर्काउनुभएको छ । उहाँले मलाई निरन्तर रूपमा उजाड र कमजोर बनाउनुभएको छ ।
14 My transgressions are bound into a yoke; by his hand they are fastened together, they are set upon my neck; he has made my strength to fail. The LORD has delivered me into their hands, against whom I am not able to stand.
मेरा आज्ञा उल्लङ्घनहरूको जुवालाई उहाँको हातद्वारा बाँधिएको छ । ती सँगसँग बाँधिएर मेरो काँधमा राखिएका छन् । उहाँले मेरो बललाई असफल तुल्याइदिनुभएको छ । परमप्रभुले मलाई तिनीहरूका हातमा सुम्पिदिनुभएको छ, र म खडा हुन सक्दिनँ ।
15 The LORD has rejected all my mighty men in my midst; he has called a solemn assembly against me to crush my young men. The LORD has trodden as in a winepress the virgin daughter of Judah.
मेरो प्रतिरक्षा गर्ने मेरा सबै शक्तिशाली मानिसलाई परमप्रभुले एकातिर फ्याँकिदिनुभएको छ । मेरा हट्टाकट्टा मानिसहरूलाई धूलोपिठो पार्न उहाँले मेरो विरुद्धमा सभा बोलाउनुभएको छ । परमप्रभुले यहूदाका कन्या-छोरीहरूलाई दाखको कोलमा कुल्चिमिल्ची पार्नुभएको छ ।
16 For these things I weep; my eyes flow with tears; because the comforter who should refresh my soul is far from me. My children are desolate, because the enemy has prevailed.
यिनै कुराहरूको लागि म रुन्छु; मेरा आँखा आँसुको धारा बहन्छ । किनकि मलाई सान्त्वना दिने र मेरो जीवनलाई पुनर्स्थापित गर्ने मबाट निकै टाढा छ । शत्रुले मलाई परास्त गरेकोले मेरा बालबच्‍चा बेसहारा छन् ।
17 Zion spreads forth her hands; there is none to comfort her. The LORD has commanded concerning Jacob, that those who are around him should be his adversaries. Jerusalem is among them as an unclean thing.
सियोनले आफ्ना हात फैलाएको छ । त्यसलाई सान्त्वना दिने कोही छैन । याकूबको वरिपरि हुनेहरू त्यसका वैरीहरू होऊन् भनी परमप्रभुले आज्ञा दिनुभएको छ । यरूशलेम तिनीहरूका लागि अशुद्ध छ ।
18 The LORD is righteous, for I have rebelled against his commandment. Please listen all you people, and see my suffering. My virgins and my young men have gone into captivity.
परमप्रभु धर्मी हुनुहुन्छ, किनकि म उहाँको आज्ञाको विरुद्धमा बागी भएको छु । हे सबै मानिस हो, सुन र मेरो शोकलाई विचार गर । मेरा कन्याहरू र हट्टाकट्टा मानिसहरू निर्वासनमा गएका छन् ।
19 I called for my lovers, but they deceived me. My cohanim and my elders perished in the city, while they searched for food to refresh their souls.
मैले मेरा मित्रहरूलाई बोलाएँ, तर तिनीहरू मप्रति धोकेबाज निस्किए । मेरा पुजारीहरू र मेरा धर्म-गुरुहरूले आफ्ना प्राण बचाउनको लागि खानाको खोजी गर्दा तिनीहरू सहरमा नै नष्‍ट भए ।
20 See, LORD, for I am in distress; my stomach churns; my heart is turned within me; for I have grievously rebelled. Outside the sword bereaves, in the house it is like death.
हे परमप्रभु, हेर्नुहोस्, किनकि म निराशामा छु । मेरो पेट हुँडल्छ । मेरो हृदय मभित्रै छटपटिन्छ, किनकि म ज्यादै विद्रोही भएको छु । बाहिर तरवारले आमालाई नष्‍ट पार्छ, घरभित्र केवल मृत्यु छ ।
21 They have heard that I groan; there is none to comfort me. All my enemies have heard of my trouble; they are glad that you have done it. Bring the day that you have proclaimed, so that they shall end up like me.
तिनीहरूले मेरो सुस्केरा सुनेका छन्, तर मलाई सान्त्वना दिने कोही छैन । मेरा सबै शत्रुले मेरो कष्‍टको विषयमा सुनेका छन्, र तपाईंले यसो गर्नुभएकोमा तिनीहरू खुसी छन् । तपाईंले प्रतिज्ञा गर्नुभएको दिन तपाईंले ल्याउनुभएको छ । अब तिनीहरू मजस्तै होऊन् ।
22 Let all their wickedness come before you. Do to them, as you have done to me for all my transgressions. For my groans are many, and my heart is faint.
तिनीहरूका सबै दुष्‍टता तपाईंको सामु आऊन् । मेरा सबै आज्ञा उल्लङ्घनको कारणले तपाईंले मलाई व्यवहार गर्नुभएझैँ तिनीहरूसित व्यवहार गर्नुहोस् । मेरा सुस्केरा धेरै छन्, र मेरो हृदय मुर्छा परेको छ ।
