< 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 doom of Moab. Truly in a night is 'Ar of Moab plundered, it is laid waste; truly in a night is Kir of Moab plundered, it is laid waste.
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 ।
It goeth up to the [idol-]house, and Dibon [goeth] up to the high-places to weep, on Nebo and on Medeba shall Moab wail: on all its heads there is baldness, and every beard is hewn off.
3 आफ्ना गल्लीहरूमा तिनीहरू भाङ्ग्रा लगाउँछन् । तिनीहरू घरका छतहरूमाथि र चोकहरूमा हरेकले आँसु बगाउँदै विलाप गर्छन् ।
In its streets they are girded with sack-cloth, on its roofs, and in its public places every one shall wail, groan with weeping.
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 loud crieth Cheshbon with El'aleh; as far as Yahaz is heard their voice: therefore the armed men of Moab shall howl; its soul is grieved for itself.
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 will cry for Moab, whose fugitives are as far as Zo'ar, [and] the third 'Eglarth; for the ascent of Luchith—with weeping is it ascended; for on the way to Choronayim they let resound the cry of defeat [in battle].
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 dry is the grass, gone are the herbs, and green things are no more.
7 तिनीहरूले प्रशस्त उब्जनी गरेका कुरा र भण्डारण गरेका कुरा, तिनीहरू लहरे-पिपलहरूको खोलापारि लैजान्छन् ।
Therefore the rest of their acquisitions and what they possess shall they carry away over the brook of the willows.
8 चित्कार मोआबको इलाकभरि नै गएको छ । विलापचाहिं एग्लेम र बेअर-एलीससम्म पुगेको छ ।
For the cry hath encompassed the boundary of Moab; up to Eglayim [is heard] its wail, and at Beer-elim [is heard] its wail.
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 filled with blood; for I will bring over Dimon armed bands; over the escaped of Moab [cometh] a lion, and over the remnant of the land.
