< आमोस 2 >
1 परमप्रभु यस्तो भन्नुहुन्छः “मोआबका तिन वा चारवटा पापका निम्ति समेत, दण्ड दिनबाट म पछि हट्नेछैनँ, किनभने त्यसले एदोमका राजालाई जलाएर चून बनायो ।
Thus said Jehovah: For three transgressions of Moab, And for four, I do not reverse it, Because of his burning the bones of the king of Edom to lime,
2 मोआबमा म आगो पठाउनेछु, र त्यसले किर्योतका किल्लाहरूलाई भस्म पार्नेछ । चिच्याहट र तुरहीको आवाजमा, ठुलो गर्जनसहित मोआबचाहिं मर्नेछ ।
And I have sent a fire against Moab, And it hath consumed the palaces of Kerioth, And dying with noise is Moab, With shouting, with voice of a trumpet.
3 त्यसको न्यायकर्तालाई म नष्ट गर्नेछु र त्यसका सबै राजकुमारलाई म मार्नेछु,” परमप्रभु भन्नुहुन्छ ।
And I have cut off a judge from her midst, And all its heads I slay with him, said Jehovah.
4 परमप्रभु यस्तो भन्नुहुन्छः “यहूदाका तिन वा चारवटा पापका निम्ति समेत, दण्ड दिनबाट म पछि हट्नेछैनँ, किनभने तिनीहरूले परमप्रभुको व्यवस्थालाई तिरस्कार गरे, र उहाँका विधिहरू पालना गरेनन् । तिनीहरूका झुटले तिनीहरूलाई भ्रममा पार्यो, जसका पछि तिनीहरूका पुर्खाहरू पनि हिंडेका थिए ।
Thus said Jehovah: For three transgressions of Judah, And for four, I do not reserve it, Because of their loathing the law of Jehovah, And His statutes they have not kept, And their lies do cause them to err, After which their fathers did walk,
5 यहूदामा म आगो पठाउनेछु, र त्यसले यरूशलेमका किल्लाहरूलाई भस्म पार्नेछ ।”
And I have sent a fire against Judah, And it hath consumed palaces of Jerusalem.
6 परमप्रभु यस्तो भन्नुहुन्छः “इस्राएलका तिन वा चारवटा पापका निम्ति समेत, दण्ड दिनबाट म पछि हट्नेछैनँ, किनभने तिनीहरूले निर्दोषहरूलाई चाँदीमा, अनि दरिद्रहरूलाई एक जोर जुत्तामा बेचे ।
Thus said Jehovah: For three transgressions of Israel, And for four, I do not reverse it, Because of their selling for silver the righteous, And the needy for a pair of sandals.
7 मानिसहरूले भुइँमा भएको धुलोलाई कुल्चेझैँ, तिनीहरूले गरिबहरूका शिरहरू कुल्चन्छन् । तिनीहरूले थिचोमिचोमा परेकालाई पर धकेल्छन् । एक जना मानिस र उसका बाबु एउटै केटीसँग सुत्छन्, र यसरी मेरो पवित्र नाउँलाई अशुद्ध पार्छन् ।
Who are panting for the dust of the earth on the head of the poor, And the way of the humble they turn aside, And a man and his father go unto the damsel, So as to pollute My holy name.
8 तिनीहरूले बन्धकको रूपमा लिएका लुगाहरूमाथि नै हरेक वेदीको छेउमा पल्टिन्छन्, र जरिमानामा लिएको दाखमद्य नै तिनीहरूले आफ्नो परमेश्वरका मन्दिरमा पिउँछन् ।
And on pledged garments they stretch themselves near every altar, And the wine of fined ones they drink [in] the house of their gods.
9 तापनि तिनीहरूका सामु मैले एमोरीलाई नाश गरें, जसका उचाइ देवदारुहरूका उचाइझैं थियो । त्यो फलाँटको रूख जत्तिकै बलियो थियो । तापनि मैले त्यसको माथिको फल, अनि त्यसको मुनिका जराहरूलाई नाश गरें ।
And I — I have destroyed the Amorite from before them, Whose height [is] as the height of cedars, And strong he [is] as the oaks, And I destroy his fruit from above, And his roots from beneath.
10 साथै मैले तिमीहरूलाई मिश्रदेशबाट निकालेर माथि ल्याएँ, र एमोरीहरूको देश कब्जा गर्नलाई, चालिस वर्षसम्म तिमीहरूलाई मरुभूमिमा डोर्याएँ ।
And I — I have brought you up from the land of Egypt, And cause you to go in a wilderness forty years, To possess the land of the Amorite.
11 तिमीहरूका छोराछोरीका बिचबाट अगमवक्ताहरू, र तिमीहरूका जवान मानिसहरूबाट नाजिरीहरू मैले खडा गरें । ए इस्राएलका मानिस हो, के यो सत्य होइन? — यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो ।
And I raise of your sons for prophets, And of your choice ones for Nazarites, Is not this true, O sons of Israel? An affirmation of Jehovah.
12 तर तिमीहरूले नाजिरीहरूलाई दाखमद्य पिउन प्रेरित गर्यौ, अनि अगमवक्ताहरूलाई अगमवाणी नबोल्ने आज्ञा दियौ ।
And ye cause the Nazarites to drink wine, And on the prophets ye have laid a charge, Saying, 'Do not prophecy!'
13 हेर, अन्न भरिएको गाडाले कसैलाई कुल्चेझैं, म तिमीहरूलाई कुल्चनेछु ।
Lo, I am pressing you under, As the full cart doth press for itself a sheaf.
14 तेज दौडने उम्केर जान सक्नेछैन, र बलियोले आफ्नो बलमाथि बल पाउनेछैन, न त शक्तिशालीले आफैंलाई बचाउन सक्नेछ ।
And perished hath refuge from the swift, And the strong strengtheneth not his power, And the mighty delivereth not his soul.
15 धनुधारी खडा हुनेछैन । तीव्र गतिमा दौडने उम्कने छैन । घोडचडीले आफैंलाई बचाउन सक्नेछैन ।
And the handler of the bow standeth not, And the swift with his feet delivereth not [himself], And the rider of the horse delivereth not his soul.
16 त्यस दिनमा सबैभन्दा साहसी योद्धाहरू पनि नाङ्गै भाग्नेछन् — यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो ।”
And the courageous of heart among the mighty, Naked doth flee in that day, An affirmation of Jehovah!
