यशैया 18
1 सुस्केराको आवाज निकाल्ने देशलाई धिक्कार, जुन कु्सका नदीहरूसँगै छ ।
Behold, land shadowed [with] wings, That [is] beyond the rivers of Cush,
2 जसले नरकटका डुङ्गाहरूमा समुद्रहुँदै राजदूतहरू पठाउँछ । हे फुर्तिला दूतहरू, सबै अग्ला र चिल्ला जातिकहाँ जाओ, टाढा नजिकका मानिसलाई डराउनेहरू, एउटा बलियो र विजयी जाति जसको देशलाई नदीहरूले विभाजन गर्छ ।
That is sending ambassadors by sea, Even with implements of reed on the face of the waters—Go, swift messengers, To a nation drawn out and peeled, To a people fearful from its beginning and onward, A nation meeting out by line, and treading down, Whose land floods have spoiled.
3 तिमीहरू संसारका सबै बासिन्दाहरू र पृथ्वीमा बसोवास गर्ने, तिमीहरू जब डाँडाहरूमाथि चिन्ह उठाइन्छ, तब हेर । अनि जब तुरही बजाइन्छ तब सुन ।
All you inhabitants of the world, And you dwellers of earth, At the lifting up of an ensign on hills you look, And at the blowing of a horn you hear.
4 परमप्रभुले मलाई यसो भन्नुभयो, “चर्को घामको उखुम तापजस्तै, कटानीको तापमा कुहिरोजस्तै म आफ्नो घरबाट शान्त भएर हेर्नेछु ।
For thus said YHWH to me: “I rest, and I look on My settled place, As a clear heat on an herb. As a thick cloud of dew in the heat of harvest.
5 कटनीअगि फूल फुल्ने समय सिद्धिएपछि र फूल दाख हुँदैगर्दा, उहाँले छाँट्ने हँसियाहरूले छाँट्नुहुनेछ र उहाँले फैलिरहेको हाँगाहरूलाई काट्नुहुनेछ र लानुहुनेछ ।
For before harvest, when the flower is perfect, And the blossom is producing unripe fruit, Then [One] has cut the sprigs with pruning hooks, And the branches He has turned aside, cut down.
6 डाँडाका चराहरू र पृथ्वीका जनावरहरूका निम्ति ती छोडिनेछन् । चराहरूले ग्रीष्मको समय तिनीहरूमा बिताउनेछन् र पृथ्वीका सबै जनावरहरूले तिनीहरूमा हिउँद बिताउनेछन् ।”
They are left together to the ravenous bird of the mountains, And to the beast of the earth, And the ravenous bird has summered on them, And every beast of the earth winters on them.
7 त्यस दिन अग्ला र चिल्ला मानिसहरूले, टाढा नजिकका मानिसलाई डराउनेहरू, बलिया र विजयीले सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभुलाई उपहार ल्याउने छन्, जसको देशलाई नदीहरूले विभाजन गर्छन्, तिनीहरूले सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभुको नाउँ भएको सियोन पर्वतमा ल्याउनेछन् ।
At that time a present is brought to YHWH of Hosts, A nation drawn out and peeled. Even of a people fearful from the beginning until now, A nation meting out by line, and treading down, Whose land floods have spoiled, To the place of the Name of YHWH of Hosts—Mount Zion!”
