< Isaiah 59 >

1 Here! not it is [too] short [the] hand of Yahweh for saving and not it is [too] heavy ear his for hearing.
हेर, परमप्रभुको हात यति छोटो छैन कि त्‍यसले बचाउन सक्‍दैन । न त उहाँको कान यति मन्द नै छ कि त्‍यसले सुन्‍न सक्‍दैन ।
2 For except iniquities your they have been separating between you and between God your and sins your they have hidden face from you from hearing.
तापनि तिमीहरूका पापपुर्ण कामहरूले तिमीहरूलाई परमेश्‍वरबाट अलग गरेको छ, र तिमीहरूका पापहरूले तिमीहरूबाट र तिमीहरूका कुरा सुन्‍नबाट उहाँलाई आफ्नो मुख लुकाउने बनाएको छ ।
3 For hands your they are defiled with blood and fingers your with iniquity lips your they have spoken falsehood tongue your injustice it mutters.
किनकि तिमीहरूका हातहरूमा रगतका र तिमीहरूको औंलाहरूमा पापका दाग छन् । तिमीहरूका ओठहरूले झुट बोल्छन् र तिमीहरूका जिब्राले छलपुर्वक बोल्छन् ।
4 There not [is one who] calls in righteousness and there not [is one who] enters into judgment in truth [they are] trusting on emptiness and they speak worthlessness they conceive mischief and they bring forth wickedness.
कसैले पनि धार्मिकतामा पुकारा गर्दैन र कसैले पनि आफ्नो मुद्दाको निम्‍ति सत्यतामा बिन्‍ति गर्दैन । तिनीहरू रित्ता शब्दहरूमा भर पर्छन् र झुट बोल्छन् । तिनीहरूले कष्‍ट गर्भधारण गर्छन् र पाप जन्माउँछन् ।
5 Eggs of a viper they have hatched and webs of a spider they weave the [one who] eats any of eggs their he will die and the pressed [egg] it is hatched a snake.
तिनीहरूले विषालु सर्पको अण्डा ओथर्छन् र माकुराको जालो बुन्छन् । तिनीहरूका अण्डा जसले खान्छ त्‍यो मर्छ र एउटा अण्डा फुटाइयो भने, त्‍यसबाट विषलु सर्प निस्‍कन्‍छ ।
6 Webs their not they will become clothing and not people will cover themselves with products their products their [are] products of wickedness and deed[s] of violence [is] in hands their.
तिनीहरूका जालोहरू लुगाको निम्ति प्रयोग गर्न सकिंदैन, न त तिनीहरूले आफ्‍ना कामहरूले आफूलाई ढाक्‍न सक्छन् । तिनीहरूका कामहरू पापका कामहरू हुन् र तिनीहरूका हातहरूमा हिंसाका कामहरू छन् ।
7 Feet their to evil they run and they may hasten to shed blood innocent thoughts their [are] thoughts of wickedness devastation and destruction [are] on highways their.
तिनीहरूका पाउहरू दुष्‍टतातिर हतारिन्छ र तिनीहरू नोर्दोष रगत बगाउन दौडिन्छन् । तिनीहरूका विचारहरू पापका विचारहरू हुन् । हिंसा र विनाश तिनीहरूका बाटोहरू हुन् ।
8 A way of peace not they know and there not [is] justice on tracks their paths their they have made crooked themselves any [one who] treads on it not he knows peace.
शान्तिको बाटो तिनीहरूले जान्दैनन् र तिनीहरूका बाटोहरूमा न्याय हुँदैन । तिनीहरूले बाङ्गा बाटोहरू बनाएका छन् । यी बाटोहरूमा यात्रा गर्नेहरूले शान्ति जान्दैनन् ।
9 There-fore it is far justice from us and not it reaches us righteousness we wait eagerly for the light and there! darkness for gleams of light in gloom we walk.
यसकारण न्याय हामीबाट टाढा छ, न त धार्मिकता हामीकहाँ आइपुग्छ । हामी ज्‍योतिको आशा गर्छौं, तर अन्धकार देख्‍छौं । हामी उज्‍यालोको प्रतिक्षा गर्छौं, तर हामी अन्‍धकारमा हिंड्‍छौं ।
10 We grope for like blind [people] a wall and like there not [are] eyes we grope we have stumbled at noon like the twilight among the fat people like dead [people].
अन्‍धाले झैं र देख्‍न नसक्‍नेहरूले झैं हामी भित्ता छाम्‍छौं । हामी मध्यदिनमा नै साँझमा झैं ठेस खान्छौं । बलियोहरूका माझमा हामी मरेका मानिसझैं छौं।
11 We growl like bears all of us and like doves certainly we moan we wait eagerly for justice and there not for deliverance it is far from us.
हामी भालुझैं कराउँछौं र ढुकुरझैं विलाप गर्छौं । हामी न्यायको आशा गर्छौं, तर त्यहाँ छैन । छुटकाराको खोज्‍छौं, तर त्‍यो हामीबाट टाढा छ ।
12 For they are many transgressions our before you and sins our it has testified against us that transgressions our [are] with us and iniquities our we know them.
किनकि हाम्रा धेरै अपराधहरू तपाईंका सामु छन् र हाम्रा पापहरूले हाम्रा विरुद्धमा गवाही दिन्छन् । किनकि हाम्रा अपराधहरू हामीसँग छन् र हामी आफ्‍ना पापहरू जान्दछौं।
13 We have transgressed and we have denied Yahweh and we have turned back from after God our we have spoken oppression and rebellion we have conceived and we have uttered from [the] heart words of falsehood.
परमप्रभुलाई इन्कार गरेर र हाम्रा परमेश्‍वरको अनुसरण गर्न छाडेर हामीले विद्रोह गरेका छौं । हामीले झुट बोलेका छौं, अनि तर्किएर हृदय र झुटका शब्दहरूबाट गनगन गरेका छौं ।
14 And it has been driven back backwards justice and righteousness from a distance it stands for it has stumbled in the open place truth and honesty not it is able to enter.
न्याय हटाइएको छ र धार्मिका टाढै खडा हुन्‍छ । किनकि सत्यता खुल्ला ठाउँ ठेस खान्छ र ठिक कुरा आउन सक्‍दैन ।
15 And it was truth lacking and [one who] turned aside from evil [was] plundered and he saw Yahweh and it was displeasing in view his that there not [was] justice.
भरोसा हराएको छ, र जो दुष्‍टताबाट फर्किन्‍छ उसले आफूलाई शिकार बनाउँछ । परमप्रभुले यो देख्‍नुभयो र त्‍यहाँ न्याय नदेखेर अप्रशन्‍न हुनुभयो ।
16 And he saw that there not [was] anyone and he was appalled that there not [was one who] interposed and it gave victory to him own arm his and own righteousness his it it sustained him.
त्‍यहाँ उहाँले कुनै मानिसलाई देख्‍नुभएन र मध्यस्थ गर्ने कोही नभएकोमा उहाँ छक्‍क पर्नुभयो । यसकारण उहाँको आफ्नै बहुलीले उसको उद्धार गर्‍यो र उहाँको धार्मिकताले उसलाई सम्भाल्यो ।
17 And he put on righteousness like body armor and a helmet of salvation on head his and he put on garments of vengeance clothing and he wrapped himself like robe zeal.
उहाँले धार्मिकतालाई छातीपाताको रूपमा र आफ्‍नो शिरमा मुक्‍तिको टोप लगाउनुभयो । उहाँले आफूलाई बदलाको पोशाल पहिरनुभयो र जोशलाई आवरणको रूपमा लगाउनुभयो ।
18 As on deeds as on he will repay rage to opponents his recompense to enemies his to the islands recompense he will repay.
आफ्‍ना विरोधीहरूलाई क्रोधको इन्साफले, आफ्‍ना शत्रुहरूलाई बदलाले, टापुहरूलाई तिनीहरूका इनामको रूपमा दण्डले, तिनीहरूले जे गरेका थिए, त्‍यसको प्रतिफल उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई दिनुभयो ।
19 And they may fear from [the] setting place [the] name of Yahweh and from [the] rising of [the] sun glory his for he will come like river narrow [which] [the] wind of Yahweh it will drive it.
त्यसैले तिनीहरूले पश्‍चिमदेखि परमप्रभुको नाउँको भय मान्‍नेछन् र सूर्योदयदेखि उहाँको महिमा देख्‍नेछन् । किनकि परमप्रभुको सासले डोर्‍याएर उहाँ उर्लंदो नदीझैं आउनुहुनेछ ।
20 And he will come to Zion a redeemer and to [those who] repent of transgression in Jacob [the] utterance of Yahweh.
“सियोनमा र याकूबका विद्रोही कामहरूबाट फर्कनेहरूकहाँ— एक जना उद्धारक आउनुहुने छ— यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो ।
21 And I this [is] covenant my with them he says Yahweh spirit my which [is] on you and words my which I have put in mouth your not they will depart from mouth your and from [the] mouth of offspring your and from [the] mouth of [the] offspring of offspring your he says Yahweh from now and until perpetuity.
परमप्रभु भन्‍नुहुन्छ— मेरो निम्‍ति, तिनीहरूसँग यो मेरो करार हो । मेरो आत्मा तँमाथि छ, र मेरो वचन मैले तेरो मुखमा राखेको छु, त्‍यो तेरो मुखबाट जानेछैन वा तेरा छोराछोरीका मुखबाट जानेछैन, अहिलेदेखि सदासर्वदासम्मै—परमप्रभु भन्‍नुहुन्छ ।
