< 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 ।
[I received] this message [from Yahweh] about the Moab [people-group]: In one night [two of your important cities], Ar and Kir, will be 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 ।
The people of Dibon, [your capital city, ] will go to their temple to mourn/weep; they will go to [their shrines] on the hilltops to weep. They will wail because of [what happened to] Nebo and Medeba [towns in the south]; they will all shave the hair of their heads, and the men will cut off their beards [to show that they are grieving].
3 आफ्ना गल्लीहरूमा तिनीहरू भाङ्ग्रा लगाउँछन् । तिनीहरू घरका छतहरूमाथि र चोकहरूमा हरेकले आँसु बगाउँदै विलाप गर्छन् ।
In the streets people will wear rough sackcloth, and on their [flat] rooftops and in the [city] plazas everyone will wail, with tears streaming down their faces.
4 हेश्बोन र एलाले सहायताको निम्ति पुकारा गर्छन् । तिनीहरूको सोर यहसासम्म सुनिन्छ । यसरी मोआबका हतियारधारी मानिसहरूले सहायताको निम्ति पुकारा गर्छन् । तिनीहरू आफैभित्र त्रसित हुन्छन् ।
[The people of] Heshbon [city] and Elealeh [towns in the north of Moab] will cry out; people as far away as Jahaz [town in the south] will hear them wailing. Therefore the soldiers of Moab will tremble and cry out and they will be very afraid [IDM].
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 ।
I feel very sorry for [the people of] Moab; they will flee to Zoar and Eglath-Shelishiyah [towns in the far south]. They will cry as they walk up to Luhith [town]. All along the road to Horonaim [town] people will mourn because their country has been destroyed.
6 निम्रीमको पानीहरू सुख्खा भएका छन् । घाँस ओइलिएका छन् । हरियाली सुकेका छन् । त्यहाँ कुनै हरियो घाँस छैन ।
The water in Nimrim [Valley] will have dried up. The grass there will be withered; the green plants will [all] be gone, and there will be nothing left that is green.
7 तिनीहरूले प्रशस्त उब्जनी गरेका कुरा र भण्डारण गरेका कुरा, तिनीहरू लहरे-पिपलहरूको खोलापारि लैजान्छन् ।
The people will pick up their possessions and carry them across Willows Brook.
8 चित्कार मोआबको इलाकभरि नै गएको छ । विलापचाहिं एग्लेम र बेअर-एलीससम्म पुगेको छ ।
Throughout the country of Moab, [people] will be crying; people as far away as Eglaim [in the south] and Beer-Elim [in the north] will hear them wailing.
9 किनभने दीबोनका पानीहरू रगतले भरिएका छन् । तर म दीबोनमाथि अझ धेरै ल्याउनेछु । मोआबबाट भाग्ने र त्यो देशमा बस्नेमा समेत एउटा सिंहले आक्रमण गर्नेछ ।
The stream near Dimon will become red from the blood [of people who have been killed], but I will cause the people of Moab to experience even more [trouble]: Lions will attack those who [are trying to] escape from Moab and will [also] attack the people who remain in that country.
