< यशैया 10 >

1 धिक्‍कार तिनीहरूलाई जसले अन्यायपुर्ण कानुन जारी गर्छन् र अनुचित नियम लेख्छन् ।
“Woe [to] those decreeing decrees of iniquity, And writers who have prescribed perverseness,
2 तिनीहरूले खाँचोमा परेकाहरूलाई न्यायबाट वञ्‍चित गर्छन्, मेरा मानिसका गरिबहरूलाई तिनीहरूका अधिकारहरू लूट्छन्, विधवालाई लूट्छन् र अनाथहरूलाई आफ्नो शिकार बनाउँछन् ।
Of My people, That widows may be their prey, That they may spoil the fatherless.
3 इन्‍साफको दिनमा टाढाबाट विनाश आउँदा तिमीहरू के गर्नेछौ? सहायताको निम्ति तिमीहरू कसकहाँ भागरे जानेछौ र आफ्नो सम्पत्तिलाई तिमीहरू कहाँ छोड्नेछौ?
And what do you do at a day of inspection? And at desolation that comes from afar? Near whom do you flee for help? And where do you leave your glory?
4 कुनै पनि कुरा बाँकी रहँदैन र कैदीहरूका माझमा तिमीहरू झुक्‍नेछौ वा मारिएकाहरू माझमा ढल्नेछौ । यी सबै कुराहरूमा उहाँको रिस मर्दैन । बरु उहाँको हात अझै पसारिएकै छ ।
It has bowed down without Me In the place of a bound one, And they fall in the place of the slain.” With all this His anger has not turned back, And His hand is still stretched out.
5 अश्‍शूरलाई धिक्‍कार, जो मेरो रिसको लट्ठी हो, त्‍यो लहुरो जसद्वारा म आफ्‍नो क्रोध मच्‍चाउँछु!
“Woe [to] Asshur, a rod of My anger, And My indignation [is] a staff in their hand.
6 त्यसलाई अहङ्कारी जातिको विरुद्ध र मेरो पुरा क्रोध पाउने मानिसहरूको विरुद्ध म पठाउँछु । लूटका मालहरू लिने, शिकार लिने र तिनीहरूलाई गल्लीको हिलोलाई झैं कुल्चने आज्ञा म उसलाई दिन्छु ।
I send him against a profane nation, And concerning a people of My wrath I charge him, To spoil spoil, and to seize prey, And to make it a treading-place as the clay of out places.
7 तर यो उहाँको इच्छा होइन, न त उहाँले यसरी सोच्‍नुहुन्छ । धेरै जातिहरूलाई विनाश गर्ने र निमिट्यान्‍न पार्ने कुरा उहाँको मनमा छ ।
And he does not think [it] so, And his heart does not reckon [it] so, For—to destroy [is] in his heart, And to cut off nations—not a few.
8 किनकि उहाँले भन्‍नुहुन्छ, “मेरा सबै शासकहरू राजाहरू होइनन्?
For he says, Are my princes not altogether kings?
9 के कल्नो कर्कमीशजस्तै होइन र? के हमात अर्पादजस्तै होइन र? के सामरिया दमस्‍कसजस्तै होइन र?
Is not Calno as Carchemish? Is not Hamath as Arpad? Is not Samaria as Damascus?
10 जसरी मेरो हातले मूर्तीपुजक राज्यहरूलाई जितेको छ, जसका कुँदेका मूर्तिहरू यरूशलेम र सामरियामा भएका भन्दा धेरै थिए,
As my hand has gotten to the kingdoms of a worthless thing, and their carved images, [Greater] than Jerusalem and than Samaria,
11 सामरिया र त्यसको व्यार्थका मूर्तीहरूलाई मैले जे गरें, यरूशलेम र त्यसको मूर्तीहरूलाई पनि म त्यसै गर्नेछैन र?”
Do I not—as I have done to Samaria, And to her worthless things, So do to Jerusalem and to her grievous things?”
12 जब परमप्रभुले सियोन पर्वतमा र यरूशलेममा आफ्नो काम सिद्ध्याउनुभएको छ, तब म अश्‍शूरका राजाको अहङ्कारी हृदयको बोली र त्यसको घमण्डी हेराइलाई दण्ड दिनेछु ।
And it has come to pass, When the Lord fulfills all His work In Mount Zion and in Jerusalem, I see concerning the fruit of the greatness Of the heart of the king of Asshur, And concerning the glory of the height of his eyes.
13 किनकि त्‍यसले भन्‍छ, “मेरो सामर्थ्य र मेरो बुद्धिले मैले काम गरें । मसँग समझ छ, र मैले मानिसहरूका सिमानाहरू हटाएको छु । मैले तिनीहरूको बहुमूल्य सम्पत्ति चोरेको छु, र साँढेले झैं मैले बासिन्दाहरूलाई होच्‍याएको छु ।
For he has said, “I have worked by the power of my hand, And by my wisdom, for I have been intelligent, And I remove borders of the peoples, And I have spoiled their chief ones, And I put down the inhabitants as a mighty one,
14 एउटा गुँडबाट झैं, मेरा हातले जातिहरूका सम्पत्ति समातेको छ, र छोडिएको अण्डाहरू कसैले बटुलेझैं, मैले सारा पृथ्वीलाई बटुलेको छु । कसैले पनि आफ्‍ना पखेटाहरू चलाएनन् वा आफ्‍ना मुख खोलेनन् वा चिरबिर आवाज निकालेनन् ।”
And my hand gets to the wealth of the peoples as to a nest, And as a gathering of forsaken eggs I have gathered all the earth, And there has not been one moving wing, Or opening mouth, or whispering.”
15 के बन्चरोले आफूलाई चलाउने विरुद्ध आफैमा घमण्ड गर्नेछ र? के आराले आफूलाई चलाएर काट्नेलाई भन्दा आफ्नै प्रशंसा गर्नेछ र? यो त लट्ठी उचल्नेलाई लट्ठीले नै उचालेको जस्तो भयो, वा लहुरोले एक जना व्‍यक्‍तिलाई उचालेको जस्तो भयो ।
Does the axe glorify itself Against him who is hewing with it? Does the saw magnify itself Against him who is shaking it? As a rod waving those lifting it up! As a staff lifting up that which is not wood!
16 यसकारण सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभुले उसका कुलिन योद्धाहरू माझ रूढी पठाउनुहुनेछ । अनि उहाँको महिमाको मुनि आगोजस्तै जलन दन्काइनेछ ।
Therefore the Lord, the Lord of Hosts, Sends leanness among his fat ones, And under his glory He kindles a burning As the burning of a fire.
17 इस्राएलको प्रकाश आगो बन्‍नेछ र त्यसको परमपवित्र आगोको ज्वालाजस्तो बन्‍नुहुनेछ । त्‍यसले उसको काँढाहरू र सिउँडीहरूलाई एकै दिनमा डढाउने र नष्‍ट पार्नेछ ।
And the light of Israel has been for a fire, And his Holy One for a flame, And it has burned, and devoured his thorn And his brier in one day.
18 त्यसको जङ्गलको गौरव र त्यसको फलवन्त भूमिको प्राण र शरीर दुवैलाई परमप्रभुले नष्‍ट पार्नुहुनेछ । यो बिरामीको शरीर गलेको जस्तो हुनेछ ।
And the glory of his forest, and his fruitful field, He consumes from soul even to flesh, And it has been as the fainting of a standard-bearer.
19 त्यसको जङ्गलमा रहेका रूखहरू अति थोर बाँकी हुनेछन्, जसलाई एक जना बालकले पनि गन्‍न सक्‍छ ।
And the rest of the trees of his forest [are] few, And a youth writes them.
20 त्यस दिन इस्राएलका बाँकी, उम्केका याकूबका घरानाले आफूलाई पराजित गर्नेमाथि भर पर्ने छैनन्, तर तिनीहरू साँच्‍चै इस्राएलका परमपवित्र परमप्रभुमा भर पर्नेछन् ।
And it has come to pass in that day, The remnant of Israel, And the escaped of the house of Jacob, Do not add anymore to lean on its striker, And have leaned on YHWH, The Holy One of Israel, in truth.
21 याकूबका बाँकी रहेकाहरू शक्तिशाली परमेश्‍वरकहाँ फर्कनेछन् ।
A remnant returns—a remnant of Jacob, To the Mighty God.
22 किनकि तपाईंका मानसिहरू इस्राएल समुद्र किनारको बालुवाझैं भए तापनि, तिनीहरूमा बाँकी रहेकाहरू मात्र फर्कनेछन् । प्रशस्‍त धार्मिकताले माग गरेझैं, विनाशलाई आदेश दिइएको छ ।
For though your people Israel be as the sand of the sea, A remnant of it returns, A consumption determined, Overflowing [with] righteousness.
23 निर्धारण गरिएको विनाशलाई परमप्रभु सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभुले सम्‍पूर्ण देशभरि ल्याउन लाग्‍नुभएको छ ।
For a consumption that is determined, The Lord, YHWH of Hosts, Is making in the midst of all the land.
24 यसकारण परमप्रभु सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभुले भन्‍नुहुन्छ, “ए सियोनमा बस्‍ने मेरा मानिसहरू हो, अश्‍शूरसँग नडराओ । त्यसले तिमीहरूलाई आफ्‍नो लट्ठीले प्रहार गर्नेछ र तिमीहरूको विरुद्धमा त्यसको लहुरो उठाउनेछ जस्‍तो मिश्रीहरूले गरे ।
Therefore, thus said the Lord, YHWH of Hosts: “Do not be afraid, My people, inhabiting Zion, because of Asshur, He strikes you with a rod, And his staff lifts up against you, in the way of Egypt.
25 त्यससँग नडराओ किनकि तिमीहरू विरुद्धको मेरो रिस चाँडै अन्‍त हुनेछ र मेरो क्रोधले त्यसको विनाशमा लैजानेछ ।”
For yet a very little [while], And the indignation has been completed, And My anger by their wearing out.”
26 तब सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभुले ओरेबको चट्टानमा मिद्यानलाई पराजित गरेझैं तिनीहरूका विरुद्ध कोर्रा चलाउनुहुनेछ । उहाँले आफ्नो हात समुद्रमाथि उठाउनुहुनेछ र उहाँले मिश्रमा गर्नुभएझैं यसलाई माथि उचाल्‍नुहुनेछ ।
And YHWH of Hosts is awaking for him, A scourge like the striking of Midian at the rock Oreb, And his rod [is] over the sea, And he has lifted it in the way of Egypt.
27 त्यस दिन, तिमीहरूका कुममा भएको त्यसको बोझ र तिमीहरूको काँधमा भएको जुवा हटाइनेछ र मोटोपनको कारणले जुवा नष्‍ट पारिनेछ ।
And it has come to pass in that day, His burden is turned from off your shoulder, And his yoke from off your neck, And the yoke has been destroyed, because of prosperity.
28 शत्रुहरू अय्यातमा आएका छन् र मिग्रोन भएर गएका छन् । मिकमाशमा त्यसले आफ्‍नो खाद्यन्‍नहरू भण्डारण गरेको छ ।
He has come in against Aiath, He has passed over into Migron, At Michmash he looks after his vessels.
29 तिनीहरूले भञ्‍जयाङ पार गरेका छन् र गेबामा बास बसेका छन् । रामा काँप्छ र शाऊलको गिबा भागेको छ ।
They have gone over the passage, They have made Geba a lodging place, Rama has trembled, Gibeah of Saul fled.
30 ए गल्लीमको छोरी, उच्‍च सोरमा करा! हे लाकीश, ध्यान दे! तँ विचरा अनातोत!
Cry aloud [with] your voice, daughter of Gallim, Give attention, Laish! Answer her, Anathoth.
31 मदमेना भाग्दैछ, गेबीमका बासिन्दाहरू सुरक्षाको निम्ति भाग्छन् ।
Madmenah has fled away, The inhabitants of the high places have hardened themselves.
32 त्यसै दिन त्यो नोबमा रोकिनेछ र सियोनका छोरीको पर्वत र यरूशलेमका पहाडहरूतिर आफ्नो मुक्‍का हल्‍लाउनेछ ।
Yet today to remain in Nob, The mountain of the daughter of Zion waves its hand, The hill of Jerusalem.
33 हेर, परमप्रभु सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभुले डरलाग्‍दो विनाशसँगै हाँगाहरू लुछ्नुहुनेछ । सबैभन्दा अग्‍ला रूखहरू काटिनेछन् र अहङ्कारीलाई होच्‍याइनेछ ।
Behold, the Lord, YHWH of Hosts, Is lopping a branch with violence, And the high of stature are cut down, And the lofty have become low,
34 उहँले वनका झाडीहरूलाई वन्चरोले काट्नुहुनेछ र लेबनानको आफ्‍नो गौरव पतन हुनेछ ।
And He has gone around the thickets of the forest with iron, And Lebanon falls by a mighty one!
