1 “अब तैंले इस्राएलका अगुवाहरूका विरुद्धमा विलाप गर्,
Moreover take thou up a lamentation for the princes of Israel,
2 र भन्‌, 'तेरी आमा को थिई? एक सिंहिनी, त्यो सिंहका डमरुसँग बस्थी । त्यसले आफ्ना डमरुहरूलाई हुर्काउँदै तिनीहरूका बिचमा बस्थी ।
And say: Why did thy mother the lioness lie down among the lions, and bring up her whelps in the midst of young lions?
3 आफ्ना डमरुमध्‍ये एउटालाई हुर्काएर जवान बनाउने त्यो नै थिई । त्‍यो सिंह जसले आफ्नो शिकारलाई फहराउन सिक्‍यो र त्‍यसले मानिसहरूलाई खायो ।
And she brought out one of her whelps, and he became a lion: and he learned to catch the prey, and to devour men.
4 तब जातिहरूले त्‍यसको बारेमा सुने । त्यो तिनीहरूको जालमा पर्‍यो, र तिनीहरूले त्यसलाई अङ्‌कुसेले समातेर मिश्रदेशमा लगे ।
And the nations heard of him, and took him, but not without receiving wounds: and they brought him in chains into the land of Egypt.
5 त्‍यसले ऊ फर्केर आउँछ कि भनी आशा गरे तापनि आफ्‍नो आशा खेर गएको देखी । यसैले त्यसले आफ्नो अर्को डमरुलाई लिएर र त्यसलाई जवान सिंह हुनलाई हुर्काई ।
But she seeing herself weakened, and that her hope was lost, took one of her young lions, and set him up for a lion.
6 त्यो जवान सिंह अरू सिंहहरूका माझमा यताउता हिंड्‌डुल गर्न लाग्‍यो । त्‍यो एउटा बलियो जवान सिंह भएको थियो र त्‍यसले शिकारलाई फहराउन सिक्‍यो । त्‍यसले मानिसहरूलाई खान लाग्‍यो ।
And he went up and down among the lions, and became a lion: and he learned to catch the prey, and to devour men.
7 त्‍यसले तिनीहरूका विधवाहरूलाई कब्जा गर्‍यो र तिनीहरूका सहरहरू उजाड पार्‍यो । त्‍यो गर्जेको आवाजले त्यो देश र त्‍यसको पूर्णतालाई त्यागियो ।
He learned to make widows, and to lay waste their cities: and the land became desolate, and the fulness thereof by the noise of his roaring.
8 तर छेउछाउका इलाकाबाट जातिहरू त्‍यसको विरुद्धमा आए । तिनीहरूले त्‍यसमाथि पासो थापे । तिनीहरूको पासोमा त्‍यो पर्‍यो ।
And the nations Game together against him on every side out of the provinces, and they spread their net over him, in their wounds he was taken.
9 अङ्‌कुसेले समातेर तिनीहरूले त्‍यसलाई एउटा खोरमा हाले, र तिनीहरूले त्‍यसलाई बेबिलोनको राजाकहाँ लगे । तिनीहरूले त्‍यसलाई किल्लाहरूमा ल्याए ताकि इस्राएलका डाँडाहरूमा त्‍यसको आवाज फेरि कहिल्‍यै सुनिनेछैन ।
And they put him into a cage, they brought him in chains to the king of Babylon: and they cast him into prison, that his voice should no more be heard upon the mountains of Israel.
10 तेरी आमा पानीको छेउमा तेरो रगतमा रोपिएको दाखको बोटजस्तै थिई । प्रशस्त पानीको कारणले त्यो फलवन्त र हाँगैहाँगाले पूर्ण थियो ।
Thy mother is like a vine in thy blood planted by the water: her fruit and her branches have grown out of many waters.
11 त्‍यसका हाँगाहरू बलिया थिए, जसलाई शासकको राजदण्‍डको लागि प्रयोग गरिए, र त्यसको आकार हाँगाहरूभन्‍दा माथि उठ्‍यो, र त्‍यसको उचाइचाहिं त्‍यसका पातहरूमा देखिन्‍थ्‍यो ।
And she hath strong rods to make sceptres for them that bear rule, and her stature was exalted among the branches: and she saw her height in the multitude of her branches.
12 तर त्यो दाखको बोट क्रोधमा उखेलियो, र जमिनमा फालियो, र पूर्वीय बतासले त्‍यसका फललाई सुकाइदियो । त्‍यसका बलिया हाँगाहरू भाँचिए र सुके, र आगोले ती भस्‍म पारिए ।
But she was plucked up in wrath, and cast on the ground, and the burning wind dried up her fruit: her strong rods are withered, and dried up: the fire hath devoured her.
13 यसैले अब त्‍यो उजाड-स्‍थानमा, सुक्‍खा र पानी नभएको ठाउँमा रोपियो ।
And now she is transplanted into the desert, in a land not passable, and dry.
14 किनकि त्‍यसका ठुला हाँगाहरूबाट आगो निस्‍क्‍यो, र त्‍यसका फलहरू भस्‍म पार्‍यो । त्‍यसमा कुनै बलियो हाँगा बाँकी रहेन, शासन गर्ने राजदण्ड पनि रहेन ।' यो एउटा विलापको गीत हो, र विलापको गीतको रूपमा गाउनुपर्छ ।”
And a fire is gone out from a rod of her branches, which hath devoured her fruit: so that she now hath no strong rod, to be a sceptre of rulers. This is a lamentation, and it shall be for a lamentation.
