< इजकिएल 38 >
1 परमप्रभुको वचन यसो भनेर मकहाँ आयो,
Yahweh gave me another message. He said to me,
2 “ए मानिसको छोरो, मागोग देशको गोग, मेशेक र तूबलको प्रमुख शासकतिर आफ्नो मुख फर्का । अनि त्यसको विरुद्ध अगमवाणी गर् ।
“You human, turn and face Magog, the country where Gog [is the king]. He is [also] the ruler of [the nations of] Meshech and Tubal. Prophesy about [the terrible things that will happen to] him,
3 यसो भन्, ‘परमप्रभु परमेश्वर यस्तो भन्नुहुन्छ: हेर्, मेशेक र तूबलको प्रमुख शासक गोग, म तेरो विरुद्धमा छु ।
and say, ‘This is what Yahweh the Lord says: Gog, you who rule Meshech and Tubal, I am opposed to you.
4 यसैले तँलाई म फर्काउनेछु र तेरो बङ्ग्रामा बल्छी लगाउनेछु । तेरा फौज, घोडाहरू र घोडचढीहरू, सारा हतियारले सुसज्जित सबै जना, साना र ठुला ढालहरूका साथमा एउटा ठुलो दल, तरवारहरू बोकेका सबै जनासँगै तँलाई म बाहिर पठाउनेछु ।
[It will be as though] I will turn you around and put hooks in your jaws and bring you [to Israel]—you and all of your army, [including your] horses and men carrying weapons who ride the horses, and many other soldiers carrying large shields and small shields, all of them carrying swords.
5 फारस, कूश र लिबिया तिनीहरूसँगै हुनेछन् । ती सबै जनाले ढाल बोकेका र टोप लगाएका हुनेछन् ।
[Armies from] Persia, Ethiopia, and Put/Libya will also come, all of them with shields and helmets.
6 गोमर र त्यसका सबै फौज, र उत्तरका टाढा ठाउँहरूबाट बेथ-तोगर्मा, र त्यसका सबै फौज । धेरै जना मानिस तँसँग हुनेछन्!
An army from Gomer [north of Israel] will come, and an army from Togarmah far north [of Israel] will come. Armies of many nations will accompany you.’
7 तयार हो! आफूलाई र आफूसित भेला भएका तेरा फौजलाई तयार राख्, र तिनीहरूका कमाण्डर हो ।
[Tell Gog, ] ‘Get ready and be prepared to be the commander of all those groups of soldiers.
8 धेरै दिनपछि तँलाई बोलाइनेछ, र धेरै वर्षपछि तँ त्यो देशमा जानेछस् जुन तरवारद्वारा प्राप्त भएको हो र जुन धेरै समयसम्म भग्नावशेष भएको इस्राएलका पहाडहरूमा धेरै जातिहरूद्वारा पुनः खडा भएको हो । तर त्यस देशका मानिसहरूलाई जातिहरूबाट बाहिर निकालेर ल्याइनेछ, र तिनीहरू सबै जना सुरक्षसाथ बस्नेछन् ।
At some future time, I will command you to lead those armies to attack [Israel], a country whose [buildings] have been rebuilt after [they were destroyed in] wars. Their people will have been brought back from many nations [to live again] on the hills of Israel, which had been deserted for a long time. They had been brought back from [other] nations and will be living peacefully.
9 यसैले जसरी आँधी माथि जान्छ त्यसरी तँ जानेछस् । तँ, तेरा सबै फौज, तँसँग भएका धेरै जना सिपाही त्यस देशलाई ढाक्ने बादलझैं हुनेछन् ।
You and all those armies from many nations will go up to Israel, advancing like [SIM] a big storm. Your army will be like a huge cloud that covers the land.
10 परमप्रभु परमेश्वर यसो भन्नुहुन्छ: त्यो दिन यसो हुनेछ, तेरो हृदयमा योजनाहरू बन्नेछन्, र तैंले दुष्ट युक्तिहरू रच्नेछस् ।’
But this is what [I], Yahweh the Lord, say: On that day, you will have an idea about [DOU] doing an evil thing.
11 तब तैंले यसो भन्नेछस्, ‘म त्यो खुला मैदानसम्म जानेछु । सुरक्षित बसिरहेका शान्त मानिसहरूकहाँ म जानेछु । त्यहाँ तिनीहरू सबै कुनै पर्खाल वा बारहरूबिना नै, र मूल ढोकाहरू नभइकन पनि बसिरहेका छन् ।
You will say [to yourself], “My [army] will invade a country where the villages do not have walls around them. We will attack people who are peaceful and do not suspect/think [that they will be attacked]. Their towns and villages do not have walls with gates and bars.
12 लूटका माल म कब्जा गर्नेछु र चोर्नेछु ताकि भर्खरै मात्र बसोबास गरिएका बाँझो जमिनका विरुद्धमा, र जातिहरूबाट भेला भएका मानिसहरू, गाईवस्तु र सम्पत्ति आर्जन गरिरहेका मानिसहरू र पृथ्वीको बिचमा बसोबास गरिरहेकाहरूका विरुद्ध म आफ्नो हात उठाउनेछु ।’
So [it will be easy for] us to attack the people who are living again in those towns that were previously destroyed. They are people who have been gathered from many countries [where they had lived for many years], people who now live safely in their land with all their livestock and other possessions. They are living in the country that is in the middle of the most important countries (OR, [that they think is] [IRO] the most important country) in the world. Our soldiers will take away [DOU] all their valuable possessions.”
13 शेबा र ददान, र तर्शीशका व्यापारीहरूले आफ्ना जवान योद्धाहरूसँगै तँलाई यसो भन्नेछन्, ‘के तँ लुट्न आएको होस्? के तैंले तेरो फौजलाई लुटको माल, चाँदी र सुन, तिनीहरूका गाईवस्तु र सम्पत्ति जफत गर्न र लैजान भेला गराएको होस्?’
[Then people of] Sheba and Dedan and the merchants of Tarshish and nearby villages will come and say to you, “Are you gathering all your soldiers in order to [attack Israel and] take away all their silver and gold? [Do you plan] to take away their livestock and all their other valuable possessions [DOU]?”’
14 यसकारण, ए मानिसको छोरो, अगमवाणी गर् र गोगलाई यसो भन्, ‘परमप्रभु परमेश्वर यसो भन्नुहुन्छ: त्यो दिन, जब मेरा मानिसहरू सुरक्षित बसेका हुन्छन्, के तैंले तिनीहरूका बारेमा जान्नेछैनस्?
Therefore, you human, prophesy about Gog and say to him, ‘This is what Yahweh the Lord says: At that time, when my people of Israel are living safely, you will certainly think about that.
15 तँ टाढा उत्तरको आफ्नो ठाउँबाट ठुलो फौजको साथमा, ती सबै जना घोडाहरूमा सवार हुने एउटा ठुलो दल, विशाल फौजसहित आउनेछस् ।
So you will come from your place far north [of Israel], with the armies of many [other] nations, all riding horses, a huge army.
16 जमिनलाई बादलले ढाकेझैं तैंले मेरा मानिस अर्थात् इस्राएललाई आक्रमण गर्नेछस् । पछिल्ला दिनहरूमा म तँलाई मेरो देशको विरुद्ध ल्याउनेछु, ताकि मैले तँ, गोगद्वारा जातिहरूका आँखा अगाडि मलाई पवित्र प्रकट गर्दा तिनीहरूले मलाई जान्न सकून् ।
You will march toward my Israeli people, and [your soldiers] will cover the land like a huge cloud. Gog, I will bring your army to attack the country that belongs to me, but [what I do] for you will show the people of other nations that I am holy.
17 परमप्रभु परमेश्वर यसो भन्नुहुन्छ: के तँ त्यही होइनस् जसको बारेमा मैले पुराना दिनामा मेरा दास, इस्राएलका अगमवक्ताहरूद्वारा बोलें र मैले तँलाई तिनीहरूका विरुद्धमा ल्याउने समयको बारेमा तिनीहरूले आफ्नै समयमा अगमवाणी गरे?
This is what [I], Yahweh the Lord, say to Gog: In past years, when I gave messages to my servants, the prophets [in Israel], there were messages [RHQ] about you. At that time, they prophesied for [many] years that I would bring your [armies] to attack my people.
18 यसैले यो परमप्रभु परमेश्वरको घोषणा हो, गोगले इस्राएल देशलाई आक्रमण गर्ने दिनमा मेरो रिसको क्रोध दन्किनेछ ।
[So] this is what I, Yahweh the Lord, say will happen: When your [army] attacks Israel, I will be very angry with you.
19 मेरो जोश र मेरो क्रोधको आगोमा, म यो घोषणा गर्छु, कि त्यस दिन इस्राएलमा एउटा ठुलो भूकम्प जानेछ ।
I will be very furious, and to show that I am angry, there will be a great earthquake in Israel, [where your armies will be].
20 तिनीहरू सबै अर्थात् समुद्रका माछाहरू, आकाशका चाराहरू, जमिनका पशुहरू, र जमिनका घस्रने सबै प्राणीहरू, र जमिनको सतहमा भएका हरेक मानिस मेरो अगि थरथर काँम्नेछन् । हरेक पर्खालहरू जमिनमा नढलेसम्म सबै पर्वतहरू तल खसालिनेछन् र चट्टानहरू ढल्नेछन् ।
The fish in the sea, the birds, the wild animals, and the animals/creatures that crawl on the ground, and all the people on the earth will tremble because of what I [am doing]. Mountains will fall down, cliffs will crumble, and walls everywhere will fall to the ground.
21 यो परमप्रभु परमेश्वरको घोषणा हो, मेरा सबै पर्वतहरूमा म त्यसको विरुद्ध एउटा तरवार पठाउनेछु । हरेक मानिसको तरवार त्यसको भाइको विरुद्ध हुनेछ ।
Gog, on all the mountains in the country that belongs to me I will cause your soldiers to fight against each other with their swords.
22 तब त्यसलाई म रूढी र रगतले न्याय गर्नेछु । अनि त्यो र त्यसका फौज र त्योसँगै भएका धेरै जातिहरूमाथि म घनघोर वर्षा र असिना र जलिरहेको गन्धक बर्साउनेछु ।
I will punish [MTY] you [and your soldiers] with plagues and murders [MTY]. And I will send down [from the sky], on you and your troops that have come from many nations, huge amounts of rain and hail and burning sulfur.
23 म आफ्नो महान्ता र आफ्नो पवित्रता देखाउनेछु र धेरै जातिहरूका दृष्टिमा म आफैंलाई चिनाउनेछु, र म नै परमप्रभु हुँ भनी तिनीहरूले जान्नेछन् ।’”
By doing that, I will cause [the people of] many nations to know that I am very great and holy, and they will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do the things that I say that I will do].’”
