< Isaiah 33 >

1 Alas! thou plunderer when, thou, hadst not been plundered, And thou traitor when they had not betrayed thee: When thou hast ceased plundering, thou shalt be plundered, When thou hast left off betraying, they shall betray thee.
विनाश नभएको विनाश पार्ने तँलाई धिक्‍कार! तिनीहरूले धोका नदिएको धोकेबाजलाई धिक्‍कार! जब तैंले विनाश गर्न छोड्छस् तब तेरो विनाश हुनेछ । जब तैले धोका दिन छोड्छस् तब तिनीहरूले तँलाई धोका दिनेछन् ।
2 O Yahweh! shew us favour, —For thee, have we waited, —Be thou their arm every morning, Yea our salvation in the time of distress.
हे परमप्रभु, हामीप्रति अनुग्रही हुनुहोस् । हामी तपाईंको आशा गर्छौं । हरेक बिहान हाम्रो बहुली हुनुहोस्, कष्‍टको समयमा हाम्रो उद्धार हुनुहोस् ।
3 At the noise of a tumult, the peoples retreated, —When thou didst lift thyself up, nations were scattered.
ठुलो आवाजमा मानिसहरू भाग्‍छन् । तपाईं उठ्नुहुँदा जातिहरू तितरबितर हुन्‍छन् ।
4 Then shall your spoil be gathered as the gathering of the caterpillar, —As the swift running of locusts, is he about to run upon them.
तपाईंको लूट सलहरूले जस्तै बटुलिन्‍छ । सलहहरू उफ्रेझैं मानिसहरू उफ्रन्छन् ।
5 Exalted is Yahweh, for he inhabiteth a height, —He hath filled Zion with justice and righteousness.
परमप्रभु उच्‍च पारिनुभएको छ । उच्‍च स्थानमा उहाँ विराजमान हुनुहुन्छ । उहाँले सियोनलाई न्याय र धार्मिकता भर्नुहुनेछ ।
6 So shall a wealth of deliverances, wisdom and knowledge, become the stability of thy times, —the reverence of Yahweh, the same is his treasure.
तिमीहरूका समयमा उहाँ स्थिरता, उद्धार, बुद्धि र ज्ञानको प्रचुरता हुनुहुनेछ । परमप्रभुको भय नै त्‍यसको भण्डार हो ।
7 Lo! their heroes, have cried out openly, —the messengers of peace, in bitterness, continue weeping [they say]:
हेर, तिनीहरूका दूतहरू सडकहरूमा कराउँछन् । शान्तिको आशा गर्ने कुटनितिज्ञहरू धुरुधुरु रुन्छन् ।
8 The highways are deserted, The passer-by on the path, hath ceased, —He hath broken covenant, He hath despised cities, He hath made no account of men.
मुल बाटोहरू उजाड पारिएका छन् । त्यहाँ कुनै यात्रीहरू छैनन् । करारहरू तोडिएका छन्, गवाहीहरूको अवहेलना भएको छ र मानव जातिलाई आदर गरिंदैन ।
9 The land mourneth, languisheth, Lebanon, displayeth shame, is withered, —Sharon, hath become, as the waste plain, And Bashan and Carmel are shaking off their leaves.
देशले विलाप गर्छ र ओइलाउँछ । लेबनान लज्‍जित हुन्छ र ओइलाउँछ । शारोन मरुभूमिको मैदानजस्तै हो । बाशान र कार्मेलले आफ्‍ना पातहरू हल्‍लाउँछन् ।
10 Now, will I arise, Saith Yahweh, Now, will I lift myself up, Now, will I be exalted!
परमप्रभु भन्‍नुहुन्छ, “अब म उठ्नेछु, अब म उच्‍च पारिनेछु; म अब उचालिनेछु ।
11 Ye shall conceive chaff Ye shall bring forth stubble, —Your own breath, like fire, shall devour you.
तिमीहरूले भुस गर्भधारण गर्‍यौ र तिमीहरूले परालका ठुटाहरू जन्मायौ । तिमीहरूका सास तिमीहरूलाई भष्‍म पार्ने आगो हो ।
12 So shall peoples, become, as the burnings of lime, —As thorns lopped off, with fire, shall they be burned.
काँढाका झाडीहरू काटेर जलाएझैं मानिसहरूलाई चूनझैं जलाइनेछ ।
13 Hear—ye that are far off. what I have done, And know—ye that are near my might:
तिमीहरू टाढा हुनेहरू, मैले के गरेको छु सो सुन । अनि तिमीहरू नजिक हुनेहरू, मेरो शक्तिलाई स्वीकार गर ।
14 Terror-stricken in Zion, —are sinners, Shuddering hath seized the impious, —Who among us can sojourn with a fire that devoureth? Who among us can sojourn with burnings age-abiding?
सियोनका पापीहरू भयभित भएका छन् । ईश्‍वरहीनहरू थरथराउने डरले समातेको छ । हामीमध्ये कोचाहिं बलिरहेको आगोसँग खेल्‍न सक्छ र? हामीमध्ये कोचाहिं अनन्त जलिरहने आगोसँग खेल्‍न सक्छ र?
15 He that walketh righteously, And speaketh uprightly, —He that refuseth the gain of exactions That shaketh his hands free from holding a bribe, That stoppeth his ear from hearkening to deeds of blood, And shutteth his eyes from giving countenance to wrong,
त्यही नै जो धार्मिकतासाथ हिंड्छ र इमानदारसाथ बोल्छ । जसले अत्यचारको लाभलाई घृणा गर्छ, जसले घूस स्वीकार नगर्न आफ्नो हात टकटकाउँछ, रक्‍तपातको बारे सुन्‍नदेखि आफ्ना कानहरू बन्द गर्छ र जसले दुष्‍टता हेर्नदेखि आफ्ना आँखाहरू बन्‍द गर्छ—
16 He, the heights, shall inhabit, A stronghold of crags, shall be his refuge, —His bread, hath been delivered, His waters, have been made sure,
यो त्‍यो मानिस हो जो उच्‍च स्थानहरूमा वास गर्नेछ, त्यसको सुरक्षाको स्थान भिरहरू माझको किल्लाहरूमा हुनेछ, त्यसको खाना दिइनेछ र त्यसको पानीको आपुर्ती निरन्‍तर हुनेछ ।
17 Of a king, in his beauty, shall thine eyes have vision: They shall see a land that stretcheth afar.
तेरा आँखाहरूले राजालाई उहाँको सुन्दरतामा देख्‍नेछ । तिनीहरू देशलाई टाढाको दुरीमा देख्‍नेछन् ।
18 Thy heart, may murmur in terror, —Where is the scribe? Where—the receiver? Where—he that maketh a list of the towers?
तिमीहरूका मनले त्रासलाई याद गर्नेछ । शास्‍त्री कहाँ छ, पैसा तौलने कहाँ छ? धरहराहरूको गन्ती गर्ने कहाँ छ?
19 The fierce people, shalt thou not see, —The people of too deep a lip to be understood, of too barbarous a tongue for thee to comprehend.
तिमीहरूले फेरि हठी मानिसहरू, तिमीहरूले नबुझ्‍ने भाषा बोल्‍ने अनौठो मानिसहरूलाई कदापि देख्‍नेछैनौ ।
20 Look thou on Zion, the city of our appointed feast, —Thine own eyes, shall see Jerusalem—A home of comfort A tent which shall not be packed up—Whose pins shall not be pulled out, for ever, And none of, whose cords, shall be broken.
सियोन, हाम्रो भोजको सहरलाई हेर । तिमीहरूका आँखाहरूले यरूशलेमलाई शान्त बासस्थानको रूपमा, नहटाइने पालको रूपमा देख्‍नेछौ, जसको किलाहरूलाई कदापि उखेलिनेछैन न यसको कुनै डोरीलाई चुडाइन्छ ।
21 But, there shall Yahweh be our majestic one, A place of rivers—streams broad on both hands, Wherein shall go no galley with oars, Neither shall majestic ship traverse it;
बरु, परमप्रभु आफ्‍नो वैभवमा फराकिलो नदीहरू र खोलाहरूको ठाउँमा हामीसँग हुनुहुनेछ । पतवारले चलाइने कुनै पनि युद्धका पानी जहाजहरूले यात्रा गर्नेछैनन् र कुनै पनि ठुला पानी जहाजहरू जानेछैनन् ।
22 For, Yahweh is our judge, Yahweh, is our lawgiver, —Yahweh, is our king, He will save us!
किनकि परमप्रभु हाम्रो न्यायकर्ता हुनुहुन्छ, परमप्रभु हाम्रो व्यवस्था दिने हुनुहुन्छ, परमप्रभु हाम्रा राजा हुनुहुन्छ । उहाँले हामीलाई बचाउनुहुने छ ।
23 Loosed are thy ropes, —They cannot strengthen the socket of their mast They have not unfurled a sail Now, can be apportioned spoil, in abundance, The lame, have captured prey!
तिमीहरूका जहाजका डोरीहरू खुकुलो छन् । तिनीहरूले मस्तुललाई पक्रन सक्दैनन् । तिनीहरू पाल टाँग्‍न सक्दैनन् । जब ठुलो लूट बाँडिन्छ, लङ्गडोले पनि लूटको माल घिसारेर लानेछ ।
24 Neither shall the inhabitant say. I am sick, —the people who dwell therein, have been forgiven iniquity.
बासिन्दाहरूले “म बरामी छु” भन्‍ने छैनन् । त्यहाँ बस्‍ने मानिसहरूलाई तिनीहरूको पाप क्षमा गरिनेछ ।
