< यशैया 14 >
1 परमप्रभुले याकूबलाई दया गर्नुहुनेछ । उहाँले फेरि पनि इस्राएललाई रोज्नुहुनेछ र तिनीहरूलाई आफ्नै देशमा पुनर्स्थापना गर्नुहुनेछ । परदेशीहरू पनि तिनीहरूसँगै सहभागी हुनेछन् र आफूलाई याकूबको घरानासँग आवद्ध गराउनेछन् ।
For the LORD will have compassion on Jacob; once again He will choose Israel and settle them in their own land. The foreigner will join them and unite with the house of Jacob.
2 जातिहरूले तिनीहरूलाई आफ्नै ठाउँमा ल्याउनेछन् । तब इस्राएलको घरानाले तिनीहरूलाई सेवक र सेविकाको रूपमा परमप्रभुको देशमा लानेछन् । तिनीहरूलाई कैदी बनाउनेहरूलाई तिनीहरूले कैदी बनाउनेछन् र तिनीहरूले आफ्ना अत्याचारीहरूमाथि राज्य गर्नेछन् ।
The nations will escort Israel and bring it to its homeland. Then the house of Israel will possess the nations as menservants and maidservants in the LORD’s land. They will make captives of their captors and rule over their oppressors.
3 त्यो दिनमा तिमीहरूका कष्ट र पीडाबाट, अनि तिमीहरूले गर्नुपर्ने कडा परिश्रमबाट परमप्रभुले तिमीहरूलाई विश्राम दिनुहुन्छ,
On the day that the LORD gives you rest from your pain and torment, and from the hard labor into which you were forced,
4 तब तिमीहरूले बेबिलोनको राजाको विरुद्ध यो गिल्लाको गीत गाउनेछौ, “अत्याचारीको अन्त्य कसरी भएको छ, घमण्डी क्रोधको अन्त्य भयो!
you will sing this song of contempt against the king of Babylon: How the oppressor has ceased, and how his fury has ended!
5 परमप्रभुले दुष्टहरूको लट्ठी र ती शासकहरूको राजदण्ड भाँच्नुभएको छ,
The LORD has broken the staff of the wicked, the scepter of the rulers.
6 जसले मानिसहरूलाई क्रोधमा निरन्तर रूपमा प्रहार गर्यो, जसले अनियन्त्रित रूपमा आक्रमण गरेर जातिहरूमाथि क्रोधमा राज्य गर्यो ।
It struck the peoples in anger with unceasing blows; it subdued the nations in rage with relentless persecution.
7 सम्पूर्ण पृथ्वी नै विश्राममा छ र शान्त छ । तिनीहरूले गीत गाउँदै उत्सव मनाउन सुरु गर्छन् ।
All the earth is at peace and at rest; they break out in song.
8 सल्लाका रूखहरू लेबनानको देवदारुहरूसँगै तँलाई देखेर रमाउँछन् । तिनीहरू भन्छन्, 'तँलाई तल खसालिएको हुनाले, हामीलाई काटेर ढाल्न काठ काट्ने कुनै मानिस माथि आउनेछैन ।'
Even the cypresses and cedars of Lebanon exult over you: “Since you have been laid low, no woodcutter comes against us.”
9 तँ चिहानमा जाँदा, तँलाई भेट्न चिहान उत्सुक हुन्छ । पृथ्वीका सबै राजालाई, जातिहरूका सबै राजालाई, आफ्ना सिंहासनबाट माथि खडा हुन लगाएर तेरो निम्ति त्यसले मृतहरूलाई जगाउँछ । (Sheol )
Sheol beneath is eager to meet you upon your arrival. It stirs the spirits of the dead to greet you— all the rulers of the earth. It makes all the kings of the nations rise from their thrones. (Sheol )
10 तिनीहरू सबै बोल्नेछन् र तँलाई यसो भन्नेछन्, 'तँ पनि हामीजस्तै कमजोर भएको छस् । तँ पनि हामीजस्तै भएको छस् ।
They will all respond to you, saying, “You too have become weak, as we are; you have become like us!”
11 तेरो तडकभडकलाई तेरो वीणाहरूको आवाजसँगै चिहनामा ल्याइएको छ । तँमुनि औंसाहरू फैलिएका छन् र तँलाई किराहरूले ढाकेको छ,' (Sheol )
Your pomp has been brought down to Sheol, along with the music of your harps. Maggots are your bed and worms your blanket. (Sheol )
12 ए दिनको तारा, बिहानको पुत्र, तँ कसरी स्वर्गबाट तल झरेको छस्! जातिहरूमाथि विजय पाएको, तँलाई कसरी भूइँमा ढालिएको छ!
How you have fallen from heaven, O day star, son of the dawn! You have been cut down to the ground, O destroyer of nations.
13 तैंले आफ्नो हृदयमा भनेको थिइस्, 'म स्वर्गमा चढ्नेछु, परमेश्वरका ताराहरूभन्दा माथि म आफ्नो सिंहासनलाई उचाल्नेछु, र सभाको पहाडमाथि सूदूर उत्तरमा म विराजमान हुनेछु ।
You said in your heart: “I will ascend to the heavens; I will raise my throne above the stars of God. I will sit on the mount of assembly, in the far reaches of the north.
14 बादलहरूको उचाइभन्दा माथि म चड्नेछु । म आफैलाई सर्वोच्च परमेश्वरजस्तै बनाउनेछु ।'
I will ascend above the tops of the clouds; I will make myself like the Most High.”
15 तापनि तँलाई अब चिहानमा, खडालको गहिराइमा तल खसालिएको छ । (Sheol )
But you will be brought down to Sheol, to the lowest depths of the Pit. (Sheol )
16 तँलाई देख्नेहरूले तँलाई टुलुटुलु हेर्नेछन् र तिनीहरूले तँलाई ध्यान दिनेछन् । तिनीहरूले सोध्नेछन्, 'के यो त्यही मानिस हो, जसले पृथ्वीलाई थर्कमान पार्यो, जसले राज्यहरूलाई हल्लायो,
Those who see you will stare; they will ponder your fate: “Is this the man who shook the earth and made the kingdoms tremble,
17 जसले संसारलाई उजाड-स्थानजस्तो बनायो, जसले सहरहरूलाई नष्ट पार्यो र आफ्ना कैदीहरूलाई घर जान दिएन?'
who turned the world into a desert and destroyed its cities, who refused to let the captives return to their homes?”
18 जातिहरूका सबै राजा, तीमध्ये सबै जना, हरेक व्यक्ति आ-आफ्ना चिहानमा आदरसाथ सुत्छन् ।
All the kings of the nations lie in state, each in his own tomb.
19 तर एउटा हाँगालाई फालेझैं, तेरो चिहानबाट तँलाई बाहिर फालिएको छ । तरवारले छेडेर मारिएका खाल्डोका ढुङ्गाहरूतिर जाने मृतकहरूले तँलाई कपडाले झैं ढाक्छन् ।
But you are cast out of your grave like a rejected branch, covered by those slain with the sword, and dumped into a rocky pit like a carcass trampled underfoot.
20 तैंले आफ्नो देशलाई नाश पारेको र आफ्ना मानिसहरूलाई मारेको हुनाले तिनीहरूसँगै तेरो दफन हुनेछैन । दुष्ट काम गर्नेहरूका सन्तानलाई फेरि कहिल्यै याद गरिनेछैन ।”
You will not join them in burial, since you have destroyed your land and slaughtered your own people. The offspring of the wicked will never again be mentioned.
21 त्यसका सन्तानलाई, तिनीहरूका पुर्खाहरूका अपराधको निम्ति मार्ने ठाउँ तयार पार्, यसरी तिनीहरू उठ्नेछैनन् र पृथ्वी अधीन गर्नेछैनन् र सारा संसारलाई सहरहरूले भर्नेछैनन् ।
Prepare a place to slaughter his sons for the iniquities of their forefathers. They will never rise up to possess a land or cover the earth with their cities.
22 “तिनीहरू विरुद्धमा म खडा हुनेछु,”— यो सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो । “म बेबिलोनबाट नाउँ, सन्तान र वंशज नष्ट पार्नेछु,”— यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो ।
“I will rise up against them,” declares the LORD of Hosts. “I will cut off from Babylon her name and her remnant, her offspring and her posterity,”
23 “म त्यसलाई लाटोकोसेरोको अधीनमा र पानीको तलाउमा राख्नेछु, र विनाशको कुचोले म त्यसलाई बढार्नेछु,”— यो सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो ।
“I will make her a place for owls and for swamplands; I will sweep her away with the broom of destruction,” declares the LORD of Hosts.
24 सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभुले शपथ खानुभएको छ, “निश्चय नै, जस्तो मैले इच्छा गरेको छु, त्यस्तै हुनेछ । अनि जे उद्देश्य मैले राखेको छु, त्यो पुरा हुनेछ ।
The LORD of Hosts has sworn: “Surely, as I have planned, so will it be; as I have purposed, so will it stand.
25 अश्शूरलाई म आफ्नो देशमा चकनाचूर पार्नेछु र मेरो पर्वतमा म त्यसलाई खुट्टामुनि कुल्चिनेछु । तिनीहरूका काँधबाट त्यसको जुवा हटाइनेछ र तिनीहरूका पिठ्यूबाट त्यसको भारी निकालिनेछ ।”
I will break Assyria in My land; I will trample him on My mountain. His yoke will be taken off My people, and his burden removed from their shoulders.”
26 सम्पूर्ण पृथ्वीको निम्ति इच्छा गरिएको योजना यही हो र सारा जातिहरूमाथि पसारिएको बहुली यही हो ।
This is the plan devised for the whole earth, and this is the hand stretched out over all the nations.
27 किनकि सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभुले नै यो योजना गर्नुभएको छ । उहाँलाई कसले रोक्न सक्छ र? उहाँको हात उचालिएको छ र त्यसलाई कसले फर्काउने छ र?
The LORD of Hosts has purposed, and who can thwart Him? His hand is outstretched, so who can turn it back?
28 आहाज राजा मरेको वर्षमा यो घोषणा आयोः
In the year that King Ahaz died, this burden was received:
29 ए सारा पलिश्तीहरू हो, तिमीहरूलाई प्रहार गर्ने छडी भाँचिएको छ भनेर आनन्दित नहोओ । किनकि साँपको वंशबाट झन् विषलु सर्प बढ्नेछ, र त्यसको सन्तान डरलाग्दो उड्ने सर्प हुनेछ ।
Do not rejoice, all you Philistines, that the rod that struck you is broken. For a viper will spring from the root of the snake, and a flying serpent from its egg.
30 गरीबको जेठा छोरोले मेरो खर्कहरूमा आफ्ना भेडाहरू चराउनेछन्, र खाँचामा परेकाहरू सुरक्षासँग पल्टिनेछन् । तेरो वंशलाई म अनिकाले मार्नेछु जसले तेरा बाँचेका सबैलाई मृत्युमा पुर्याउनेछ ।
Then the firstborn of the poor will find pasture, and the needy will lie down in safety, but I will kill your root by famine, and your remnant will be slain.
31 ए ढोका करा । ए सहर चिच्या । हे पलिश्ती, तिमीहरू सबै पग्लेर हराउनेछौ । किनकि उत्तरबाट धूँवाको बादल आउँछ र त्यसको पङ्तिमा धरमराउने कोही छैन ।
Wail, O gate! Cry out, O city! Melt away, all you Philistines! For a cloud of smoke comes from the north, and there are no stragglers in its ranks.
32 जातिका दूलहरूलाई तिनीहरूले कसरी जवाफ दिनेछन्? “परमप्रभुले सियोनलाई बसाल्नुभएको छ, त्यसमा कष्टमा परेका मानिसहरूले शरण लिनेछन् ।”
What answer will be given to the envoys of that nation? “The LORD has founded Zion, where His afflicted people will find refuge.”
