< यशैया 19 >
1 मिश्रदेशको बारेमा एउटा घोषणा । हेर, परमप्रभु द्रूत गतिको बादलमा सवार हुनुहुन्छ र मिश्रदेशतिर आउँदै हुनुहुन्छ । मिश्रदेशको मूर्तीहरू उहाँको सामु थरथर काँप्नेछन् र मिश्रीहरूको हृदयहरू भित्रभित्रै पग्लिनेछन्,
The burden of Egypt [Abode of slavery]: “Behold, Adonai rides on a swift cloud, and comes to Egypt [Abode of slavery]. The idols of Egypt [Abode of slavery] will tremble at his presence; and the heart of Egypt [Abode of slavery] will melt within it.
2 “मिश्रहरूको विरुद्धमा मिश्रीहरूलाई नै म उठाउनेछुः एक जना मनिसले आफ्नो भाइको विरुद्धमा लड्नेछ र एक जना मानिसले आफ्नो छिमेकीको विरुद्धमा लड्नेछ । सहरले सहरको विरुद्धमा र राज्यले राज्यको विरुद्धमा लड्नेछ ।
I will stir up the Egyptians [people from Abode of slavery] against the Egyptians [people from Abode of slavery], and they will fight everyone against his brother, and everyone against his neighbor; city against city, and kingdom against kingdom.
3 मिश्रदेशको आत्मा भित्रभित्रै कमजोर हुनेछ । तिनीहरूले मूर्तीहरूका, मृत मानिसहरूका आत्माहरूका, मन्त्रतन्त्र गर्नेहरूका र झाँक्रीहरूका सल्लाह लिए तापनि, त्यसको सल्लाहलाई म नाश पार्नेछु ।
The spirit of Egypt [Abode of slavery] will fail within it. I will destroy its counsel. They will seek the idols, the charmers, those who have familiar spirits, and the wizards.
4 मिश्रीहरूलाई कठोर मालिको हातमा म दिनेछु र तिनीहरूमाथि बलियो राजाले राज्य गर्नेछ— यो सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो ।”
I will give over the Egyptians [people from Abode of slavery] into the hand of a cruel lord. A fierce king will rule over them,” says the Lord, Adonai Tzva'ot [Yahweh Commander of heaven’s armies].
5 समुद्रका पानीहरू सुक्नेछन्, अनि नदीहरू सुक्नेछन् र रित्तो हुनेछन् ।
The waters will fail from the sea, and the river will be wasted and become dry.
6 नदीहरू दूषित हुनेछन् । मिश्रदेशका नदीहरू सुक्नेछन् र सुख्खा हुनेछन् । नर्कटहरू र काँसहरू ओइलाउनेछन् ।
The rivers will become foul. The streams of Egypt [Abode of slavery] will be diminished and dried up. The reeds and flags will wither away.
7 नील नदीको मुखमा नील नदीको किनारका नर्कटहरू र नील नदीको छेउमा बीउ छरिएका खेत सुख्खा हुनेछन्, बतासले उडाउनेछन् र रहनेछैनन् ।
The meadows by the Nile, by the brink of the Nile, and all the sown fields of the Nile, will become dry, be driven away, and be no more.
8 जालाहरीहरूले विलाप र शोक गर्नेछन्, र नील नदीमा बल्छी हान्ने सबै जनाले विलाप गर्नेछ, पानीहरूमाथि आफ्नो जाल फिजाउनेहरूले शोक गर्नेछन् ।
The fishermen will lament, and all those who fish in the Nile will mourn, and those who spread nets on the waters will languish.
9 बाटेको सनपटका कामदारहरू र सेतो कपडा बुन्नेहरू निराश हुनेछन् ।
Moreover those who work in combed flax, and those who weave white cloth, will be confounded.
10 मिश्रदेशमा कपडाको काम गर्नेहरूलाई कुल्चिइनेछ । ज्यालामा काम गर्नेहरू सबैले भित्रभित्रै शोक गर्नेछन् ।
The pillars will be broken in pieces. All those who work for hire will be grieved in soul.
11 सोअनका शआसकहरू पुर्ण रूपमा मूर्ख छन् । फारोका सबैभन्दा बुद्धिमान्को सल्लाह व्यार्थको भएको छ । तिमीहरूले फारोलाई कसरी भन्न सक्छौ, “म बुद्धिमान् मानिसहरूका छोरा, प्राचीन राजाहरूका छोरा हुँ ।”
The princes of Zoan are utterly foolish. The counsel of the wisest counselors of Pharaoh has become stupid. How do you say to Pharaoh, “I am the son of the wise, the son of ancient kings?”
12 तेरा बुद्धिमान् मानिसहरू कहाँ छन्? सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभुले मिश्रदेशको बारेमा कस्तो योजना बनाउनुभएको छ भनी तिनीहरूले तँलाई बताऊन् र प्रकट गरून् ।
Where then are your wise men? Let them tell you now; and let them know what Adonai Tzva'ot [Yahweh Commander of heaven’s armies] has purposed concerning Egypt [Abode of slavery].
13 सोअनका शासकहरू मूर्ख बनेका छन्, नोपका शासकहरू धोकामा परेका छन् । तिनीहरूले मिश्रदेशलाई पथभ्रष्ट बनाएका छन्, जो त्यसका कुलहरूका कुनेढुङ्गाहरू हुन् ।
The princes of Zoan have become fools. The princes of Memphis are deceived. They have caused Egypt [Abode of slavery] to go astray, who are the cornerstone of her tribes.
14 परमप्रभुले त्यसको माझमा विकृतिको आत्मा मिसाउनुभएको छ र मिश्रदेशले गर्ने सबै कुरामा आफ्नो बान्तामा लडीबडी गर्ने जड्याँहाजस्तै पथभ्रष्ट तिनीहरूले त्यसलाई बनाएका छन् ।
Adonai has mixed a spirit of perverseness in the middle of her; and they have caused Egypt [Abode of slavery] to go astray in all of its works, like a drunken man staggers in his vomit.
15 मिश्रदेशको निम्ति शिर वा पुच्छर वा खजूरको हाँगा वा नर्कट, कसैले केही गर्न सक्दैन ।
Neither shall there be any work for Egypt [Abode of slavery], which head or tail, palm branch or rush, may do.
16 त्यस दिनमा, मिश्रीहरू स्त्रीहरूजस्ता हुनेछन् । सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभुले तिनीहरूमाथि उठाउनुहुने हातको कारणले तिनीहरू थरथर काँप्नेछन् र डराउनेछन् ।
In that day the Egyptians [people from Abode of slavery] will be like women. They will tremble and fear because of the shaking of Adonai Tzva'ot [Yahweh Commander of heaven’s armies]’s hand, which he shakes over them.
17 यहूदाको देश मिश्रदेशलाई लरखराउने बनाउने कारण बन्नेछ । जब कसैले त्यसलाई तिनीहरूको याद दिलाउँछ, तिनीहरूका विरुद्धमा परमप्रभुले योजना बनाउँदै गर्नुभएको उहाँको योजनाको कारणले तिनीहरू भयभिय हुनेछन् ।
The land of Judah [Praised] will become a terror to Egypt [Abode of slavery]. Everyone to whom mention is made of it will be afraid, because of the plans of Adonai Tzva'ot [Yahweh Commander of heaven’s armies], which he determines against it.
18 त्यस दिनमा मिश्रदेश पाँच वटा सहरहरू हुनेछन् जसले कनानको भाषा बोल्नेछन् र सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभुप्रति निष्ठाको शपथ खानेछन् । यिमध्ये एउटालाई सूर्यको सहर भनिनेछ ।
In that day, there will be five cities in the land of Egypt [Abode of slavery] that speak the language of Canaan [Humbled], and swear to Adonai Tzva'ot [Yahweh Commander of heaven’s armies]. One will be called “The city of destruction.”
19 त्यस दिन मिश्रदेशको माझमा परमप्रभुको एउटा वेदी हुनेछ र त्यसको छेउमा परमप्रभुको निम्ति ढुङ्गाको स्मारक हुनेछ ।
In that day, there will be an altar to Adonai in the middle of the land of Egypt [Abode of slavery], and a pillar to Adonai at its border.
20 मिश्रदेशमा यो सर्वशक्तिमान् परप्रभुको निम्ति एउटा चिन्ह र गवाहीको रूपमा हुनेछ । अत्याचारीहरूको कारणले तिनीहरूले परमप्रभुमा पुकारा गर्दा, उहाँले तिनीहरूका निम्ति एउटा उद्धारक र एक जना रक्षक पठाउनुहुनेछ र उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई छुटकारा दिनुहुनेछ ।
It will be for a sign and for a witness to Adonai Tzva'ot [Yahweh Commander of heaven’s armies] in the land of Egypt [Abode of slavery]; for they will cry to Adonai because of oppressors, and he will send them one to save and a defend them, and he will deliver them.
21 मिश्रदेशले परमप्रभुलाई चिन्नेछ र त्यस दिन मिश्रीहरूले परमप्रभुलाई स्वीकार गर्नेछन् । तिनीहरूले बलिदानहरू र भेटीहरूसित आराधना गर्नेछन्, अनि परमप्रभुको निम्ति भाकल गर्नेछन् र ती पुरा गर्नेछन् ।
Adonai will be known to Egypt [Abode of slavery], and the Egyptians [people from Abode of slavery] will know Adonai in that day. Yes, they will worship with sacrifice and offering, and will vow a vow to Adonai, and will perform it.
22 परमप्रभुले मिश्रदेशलाई कष्ट दिंदै र निको पार्दै कष्ट दिनुहुनेछ । तिनीहरू परमप्रभुतिर फर्किनेछन् । उहाँले तिनीहरूको प्रार्थना सुन्नुहुनेछ र तिनीहरूलाई निको पार्नुहुनेछ ।
Adonai will strike Egypt [Abode of slavery], striking and healing. They will make teshuvah ·complete return· to Adonai, and he will be entreated by them, and will heal them.
23 त्यस दिनमा मिश्रदेशदेखि अश्शूरसम्म जाने एउटा मुल बाटो हुनेछ, अनि अश्शूरीहरू मिश्रदेशमा आउनेछन् र मिश्रीहरू अश्शूरमा जानेछन् । अनि मिश्रीहरूले अश्शूरीहरूसँगै आराधना गर्नेछन् ।
In that day there will be a highway out of Egypt [Abode of slavery] to Assyria [Level plain], and the Assyrian shall come into Egypt [Abode of slavery], and the Egyptian [person from Abode of slavery] into Assyria [Level plain]; and the Egyptians [people from Abode of slavery] will worship with the Assyrians.
24 त्यस दिनमा मिश्रदेश र अश्शूरसँगै इस्राएल पृथ्वीको माझमा आशिष्मा तेस्रो हुनेछ ।
In that day, Israel [God prevails] will be the third with Egypt [Abode of slavery] and with Assyria [Level plain], a blessing within the earth;
25 सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभुले तिनीहरूलाई आशिष् दिनुहुनेछ र भन्नुहुनेछ, “ए मेरा मानिस, मिश्रदेश धन्यको होओ । मेरो हातको काम अश्शूर । मेरो उत्तराधिकार इस्राएल ।”
because Adonai Tzva'ot [Yahweh Commander of heaven’s armies] has blessed them, saying, “Blessed be Egypt [Abode of slavery] my people, Assyria [Level plain] the work of my hands, and Israel [God prevails] my inheritance.”
