< Isaiah 25 >

1 O LORD, thou art my God; I will exalt thee, I will praise thy name; for thou hast done wonderful things, [even] counsels of old, in faithfulness [and] truth.
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 an heap; of a defenced city a ruin: a palace of strangers to be no city; it shall never be built.
किन तपाईंले सहरलाई एउटा थुप्रो, किल्लाबन्दी गरेको सहरलाई भग्‍नावशेष र परदेशीहरूका किल्ला भएको सहरलाई नाश गर्नुभएको छ ।
3 Therefore shall the strong people glorify thee, the city of the terrible nations shall fear thee.
यसकारण बलिया मानिसहरूले तपाईंको महिमा गर्नेछन् । निर्दयी सहरका जातिहरूले तपाईंको डर मान्‍नेछन् ।
4 For thou hast been a strong hold to the poor, a strong hold to the needy in his distress, a refuge from the storm, a shadow from the heat, when the blast of the terrible ones is as a storm against the 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 As the heat in a dry place shalt thou bring down the noise of strangers; as the heat by the shadow of a cloud, the song of the terrible ones shall be brought low.
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 in this mountain shall the LORD of hosts make unto all peoples 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 in this mountain the face of the covering that is cast over all peoples, and the veil that is spread over all nations.
उहाँले मानिसहरूमाथिका छकनीहरू, सबै जातिहरूमाथि बुनिएका जालोहरू यही पर्वतमाथि नाश गर्नुहुनेछ ।
8 He hath swallowed up death for ever; and the Lord GOD will wipe away tears from off all faces; and the reproach of his people shall he take away 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 it shall be said in that day, Lo, this is our God; we have waited for him, and he will save us: this is the LORD; we have waited for him, we will be glad and 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 in this mountain shall the hand of the LORD rest, and Moab shall be trodden down in his place, even as straw is trodden down in the water of the dunghill.
किनकि यो पर्वतमा परमप्रभुको हातले विश्रमा लिनेछ, अनि गोबरले भरिएको खाल्डोमा पराललाई कुल्चेझैं मोआबलाई त्यसकै ठाउँमा कुल्चिइनेछ
11 And he shall spread forth his hands in the midst thereof, as he that swimmeth spreadeth forth [his hands] to swim: and he shall lay low his pride together with the craft 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 high fort of thy walls hath he brought down, laid low, and brought to the ground, even to the dust.
तेरा किल्लाहरूका अग्‍ला पर्खालहरूलाई उहाँले तल जमिनमा माटोमा ढाल्‍नुहुनेछ ।
