< यशैया 15 >
1 मोआबको बारेमा एउटा घोषणा । साँच्चै, मोआबको आरलाई एकै रातमा उजाड र नष्ट पारिन्छ । साँच्चै, मोआबको कीरलाई एकै रातमा उजाड र नष्ट पारिन्छ ।
The burden of Moab: For in the night of being laid waste, Ar of Moab is destroyed; for in the night of being laid waste, Kir of Moab is destroyed!
2 तिनीहरू माथि मन्दिरमा गएका छन्, दीबोनका मानिसहरू रुनलाई अग्लो ठाउँमा गए । नेबोको निम्ति र मेदबाको निम्ति मोआबले विलाप गर्छ । तिनीहरूका सबै शिर खौरिएका छन् र तिनीहरूका सबै दाह्रीहरू काटिएका छन् ।
He is gone up to Bajith, and to Dibon, to the high places, to weep; Moab howleth over Nebo, and over Medeba; on all their heads is baldness, every beard is cut off.
3 आफ्ना गल्लीहरूमा तिनीहरू भाङ्ग्रा लगाउँछन् । तिनीहरू घरका छतहरूमाथि र चोकहरूमा हरेकले आँसु बगाउँदै विलाप गर्छन् ।
In their streets they are girded with sackcloth; on their roofs, and in their broadways, every one howleth, melted into tears.
4 हेश्बोन र एलाले सहायताको निम्ति पुकारा गर्छन् । तिनीहरूको सोर यहसासम्म सुनिन्छ । यसरी मोआबका हतियारधारी मानिसहरूले सहायताको निम्ति पुकारा गर्छन् । तिनीहरू आफैभित्र त्रसित हुन्छन् ।
And Heshbon crieth, and Elealeh: their voice is heard unto Jahaz. Therefore the armed men of Moab cry out: his soul trembleth in him.
5 मेरो मनले मोआबको निम्ति पुकारा गर्छ । त्यसका भगौडाहरू सोअर र एग्लत-शलीशियाहतिर भाग्छन् । तिनीहरू लूहीतको उकालोमा रुँदै जान्छन् । आफ्नो विनाशको निम्ति होरोनैमको बाटोमा तिनीहरू ठुलो सोरमा विलाप गर्छन् ।
My heart crieth out for Moab; their fugitives [have fled] unto Zoar, unto Eglath-Sheli-shijah: for by the ascent of Luhith, with weeping they go up by it; for in the way of Horonaim they raise up a cry of destruction.
6 निम्रीमको पानीहरू सुख्खा भएका छन् । घाँस ओइलिएका छन् । हरियाली सुकेका छन् । त्यहाँ कुनै हरियो घाँस छैन ।
For the waters of Nimrim shall be desolate; for the herbage is withered away, the grass hath failed, there is no green thing.
7 तिनीहरूले प्रशस्त उब्जनी गरेका कुरा र भण्डारण गरेका कुरा, तिनीहरू लहरे-पिपलहरूको खोलापारि लैजान्छन् ।
Therefore the abundance they have gotten, and that which they have laid up, do they carry away to the torrent of the willows.
8 चित्कार मोआबको इलाकभरि नै गएको छ । विलापचाहिं एग्लेम र बेअर-एलीससम्म पुगेको छ ।
For the cry goeth round about the borders of Moab; the howling thereof unto Eglaim, and the howling thereof unto Beer-elim.
9 किनभने दीबोनका पानीहरू रगतले भरिएका छन् । तर म दीबोनमाथि अझ धेरै ल्याउनेछु । मोआबबाट भाग्ने र त्यो देशमा बस्नेमा समेत एउटा सिंहले आक्रमण गर्नेछ ।
For the waters of Dimon are full of blood, for I will lay yet more upon Dimon: a lion upon them that are escaped of Moab, and upon that which remaineth of the land.
