< 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 mercy on Jacob, and will yet choose Israel, and set them in their own land: and the strangers shall be joined with them, and they shall 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 ।
And the people shall take them, and bring them to their place: and the house of Israel shall possess them in the land of the LORD for servants and handmaids: and they shall take them captives, whose captives they were; and they shall rule over their oppressors.
3 त्‍यो दिनमा तिमीहरूका कष्‍ट र पीडाबाट, अनि तिमीहरूले गर्नुपर्ने कडा परिश्रमबाट परमप्रभुले तिमीहरूलाई विश्राम दिनुहुन्‍छ,
And it shall come to pass in the day that the LORD shall give thee rest from thy sorrow, and from thy fear, and from the hard bondage in which thou wast made to serve,
4 तब तिमीहरूले बेबिलोनको राजाको विरुद्ध यो गिल्लाको गीत गाउनेछौ, “अत्याचारीको अन्त्‍य कसरी भएको छ, घमण्डी क्रोधको अन्त्‍य भयो!
That thou shalt take up this proverb against the king of Babylon, and say, How hath the oppressor ceased! the golden city ceased!
5 परमप्रभुले दुष्‍टहरूको लट्ठी र ती शासकहरूको राजदण्ड भाँच्‍नुभएको छ,
The LORD hath broken the staff of the wicked, and the sceptre of the rulers.
6 जसले मानिसहरूलाई क्रोधमा निरन्‍तर रूपमा प्रहार गर्‍यो, जसले अनियन्त्रित रूपमा आक्रमण गरेर जातिहरूमाथि क्रोधमा राज्‍य गर्‍यो ।
He who smote the people in wrath with a continual stroke, he that ruled the nations in anger, is persecuted, and none hindereth.
7 सम्‍पूर्ण पृथ्वी नै विश्राममा छ र शान्त छ । तिनीहरूले गीत गाउँदै उत्सव मनाउन सुरु गर्छन् ।
The whole earth is at rest, and is quiet: they break forth into singing.
8 सल्लाका रूखहरू लेबनानको देवदारुहरूसँगै तँलाई देखेर रमाउँछन् । तिनीहरू भन्छन्, 'तँलाई तल खसालिएको हुनाले, हामीलाई काटेर ढाल्न काठ काट्ने कुनै मानिस माथि आउनेछैन ।'
Yea, the fir trees rejoice at thee, and the cedars of Lebanon, saying, Since thou art laid down, no woodsman is come up 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 h7585)
Hell from beneath is moved for thee to meet thee at thy coming: it stirreth up the dead for thee, even all the chief ones of the earth; it hath raised up from their thrones all the kings of the nations. (Sheol h7585)
10 तिनीहरू सबै बोल्नेछन् र तँलाई यसो भन्‍नेछन्, 'तँ पनि हामीजस्तै कमजोर भएको छस् । तँ पनि हामीजस्तै भएको छस् ।
All they shall speak and say to thee, Art thou also become weak as we? art thou become like us?
11 तेरो तडकभडकलाई तेरो वीणाहरूको आवाजसँगै चिहनामा ल्याइएको छ । तँमुनि औंसाहरू फैलिएका छन् र तँलाई किराहरूले ढाकेको छ,' (Sheol h7585)
Thy pomp is brought down to the grave, and the noise of thy viols: the worm is spread under thee, and the worms cover thee. (Sheol h7585)
12 ए दिनको तारा, बिहानको पुत्र, तँ कसरी स्‍वर्गबाट तल झरेको छस्! जातिहरूमाथि विजय पाएको, तँलाई कसरी भूइँमा ढालिएको छ!
How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the 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 ।
For thou hast said in thy heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:
14 बादलहरूको उचाइभन्दा माथि म चड्‍नेछु । म आफैलाई सर्वोच्‍च परमेश्‍वरजस्तै बनाउनेछु ।'
I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.
15 तापनि तँलाई अब चिहानमा, खडालको गहिराइमा तल खसालिएको छ । (Sheol h7585)
Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit. (Sheol h7585)
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,
They that see thee shall narrowly look upon thee, and consider thee, saying, Is this the man that made the earth to tremble, that shook kingdoms;
17 जसले संसारलाई उजाड-स्‍थानजस्‍तो बनायो, जसले सहरहरूलाई नष्‍ट पार्‍यो र आफ्‍ना कैदीहरूलाई घर जान दिएन?'
That made the world as a wilderness, and destroyed its cities; that opened not the house of his prisoners?
18 जातिहरूका सबै राजा, तीमध्‍ये सबै जना, हरेक व्‍यक्‍ति आ-आफ्ना चिहानमा आदरसाथ सुत्‍छन् ।
All the kings of the nations, even all of them, lie in glory, every one in his own house.
19 तर एउटा हाँगालाई फालेझैं, तेरो चिहानबाट तँलाई बाहिर फालिएको छ । तरवारले छेडेर मारिएका खाल्डोका ढुङ्गाहरूतिर जाने मृतकहरूले तँलाई कपडाले झैं ढाक्‍छन् ।
But thou art cast out of thy grave like an abominable branch, and as the raiment of those that are slain, thrust through with a sword, that go down to the stones of the pit; as a dead body trodden under feet.
20 तैंले आफ्नो देशलाई नाश पारेको र आफ्ना मानिसहरूलाई मारेको हुनाले तिनीहरूसँगै तेरो दफन हुनेछैन । दुष्‍ट काम गर्नेहरूका सन्तानलाई फेरि कहिल्यै याद गरिनेछैन ।”
Thou shalt not be joined with them in burial, because thou hast destroyed thy land, and slain thy people: the seed of evildoers shall never be renowned.
21 त्यसका सन्‍तानलाई, तिनीहरूका पुर्खाहरूका अपराधको निम्ति मार्ने ठाउँ तयार पार्, यसरी तिनीहरू उठ्नेछैनन् र पृथ्वी अधीन गर्नेछैनन् र सारा संसारलाई सहरहरूले भर्नेछैनन् ।
Prepare slaughter for his children for the iniquity of their fathers; that they may not rise, nor possess the land, nor fill the face of the world with cities.
22 “तिनीहरू विरुद्धमा म खडा हुनेछु,”— यो सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो । “म बेबिलोनबाट नाउँ, सन्तान र वंशज नष्‍ट पार्नेछु,”— यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो ।
For I will arise against them, saith the LORD of hosts, and cut off from Babylon the name, and remnant, and son, and nephew, saith the LORD.
23 “म त्यसलाई लाटोकोसेरोको अधीनमा र पानीको तलाउमा राख्‍नेछु, र विनाशको कुचोले म त्यसलाई बढार्नेछु,”— यो सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो ।
I will also make it a possession for the bittern, and pools of water: and I will sweep it with the besom of destruction, saith 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 hath sworn, saying, Surely as I have thought, so shall it come to pass; and as I have purposed, so shall 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 ।”
That I will break the Assyrian in my land, and upon my mountains tread him under foot: then shall his yoke depart from off them, and his burden depart from off their shoulders.
26 सम्‍पूर्ण पृथ्वीको निम्ति इच्‍छा गरिएको योजना यही हो र सारा जातिहरूमाथि पसारिएको बहुली यही हो ।
This is the purpose that is purposed upon the whole earth: and this is the hand that is stretched 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?
For the LORD of hosts hath purposed, and who shall frustrate it? and his hand is stretched out, and who shall turn it back?
28 आहाज राजा मरेको वर्षमा यो घोषणा आयोः
In the year that king Ahaz died was this burden.
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 ।
Rejoice not thou, all Palestina, because the rod of him that smote thee is broken: for out of the serpent’s root shall come forth an adder, and his fruit shall be a fiery flying serpent.
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 ।
And the firstborn of the poor shall feed, and the needy shall lie down in safety: and I will kill thy root with famine, and he shall slay thy remnant.
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, O city; thou, all Palestina, art dissolved: for there shall come from the north a smoke, and none shall be alone in his appointed times.
32 जातिका दूलहरूलाई तिनीहरूले कसरी जवाफ दिनेछन्? “परमप्रभुले सियोनलाई बसाल्नुभएको छ, त्यसमा कष्‍टमा परेका मानिसहरूले शरण लिनेछन् ।”
What shall one then answer the messengers of the nation? That the LORD hath founded Zion, and the poor of his people shall trust in it.
