< यशैया 2 >
1 आमोसका छोरा यशैयाले यहूदा र यरूशलेमका बारेमा दर्शनमा दखेका कुराहरू ।
The word that Isaiah the son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem.
2 अन्तका दिनहरूमा यस्तो हुनेछ परमप्रभुको मन्दिरको पर्वतलाई सबैभन्दा उच्च पर्वतहरूझैं स्थापित गरिनेछ, र डाँडाहरूभन्दा माथि त्यो उचालिनेछ, र सबै जातिहरू यतैतिर आउनेछन् ।
And it shall come to pass in the latter days, that the mountain of Jehovah's house shall be established on the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills, and all nations shall flow to it.
3 धेरै जना मानिसहरू आउनेछन् र भन्नेछन्, “आओ, परमप्रभुको पर्वत, याकूबका परमेश्वरको भवनमा माथि जाऔं, ताकि उहाँले आफ्ना केही मार्गहरू हामीलाई सिकाउनु भएको होस् र हामी उहाँका मार्गहरूमा हिंड्न सकौं ।” किनकि सियोनबाट नै व्यावस्था र यरूशलेमबाट नै परमप्रभुको वचन जानेछ ।
And many peoples shall go and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of Jehovah, to the house of the God of Jacob, and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths. For out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of Jehovah from Jerusalem.
4 उहाँले जातिहरूका बिचमा न्याय गर्नुहुनेछ र धेरै जना मानिसहरूका निम्ति निर्णय दिनुहुनेछ । तिनीहरूले आफ्ना तरवारहरू पिटेर फालीहरू र आफ्ना भालाहरू पिटेर हँसियाहरू बनाउनेछन् । एउटा जातिले अर्को जातिको विरुद्धमा तरवार उठाउनेछैन, न त तिनीहरूले फेरि युद्धको निम्ति तालिम नै दिनेछन् ।
And he will judge between the nations, and will decide concerning many peoples, and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning-hooks. Nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.
5 ए याकूबको घराना हो, आओ र परमप्रभुको प्रकाशमा हिंडौं ।
O house of Jacob, come ye, and let us walk in the light of Jehovah.
6 किनकि तपाईंले याकूबको घराना, आफ्ना मानिसहरूलाई त्याग्नुभएको छ, किनभने तिनीहरू पुर्वका प्रचलनले भरिएका छन् र पलिश्तीहरूले झैं तिनीहरू जोखना हेर्छन्, र तिनीहरूले विदेशीका छोराहरूसँग हात मिलाउँछन् ।
For thou have forsaken thy people the house of Jacob, because they are filled with things from the east, and are soothsayers like the Philistines. And they strike hands with the children of foreigners.
7 तिनीहरूका देश सुन र चाँदीले भरिएको छ र तिनीहरूका सम्पत्तिको कुनै कमी छैन । तिनीहरूका देश घोडाहरूले पुर्ण छ, न त तिनीहरूका रथहरूको नै कुनै कमी छ ।
And their land is full of silver and gold, neither is there any end of their treasures. Their land is also full of horses, neither is there any end of their chariots.
8 तिनीहरूको देश मूर्तीहरूले पनि भरिएको छ । तिनीहरूले आफ्नै हातहरूका कलाको, तिनीहरूका आफ्नै औंलाहरूले बनाएका कुराहरूको पुजा गर्छन् ।
Their land is also full of idols. They worship the work of their own hands, that which their own fingers have made,
9 मानिहरूलाई झुकाइनेछन् र व्यक्तिहरू घोप्टिनेछन् । त्यसकारण तिनीहरूलाई नउठाउनुहोस्।
and so the common man bows down, and the great man degrades himself. Therefore do not forgive them.
10 चट्टानका ठाउँहरूमा जाओ र परमप्रभुको त्रास र उहाँको वैभवको महिमाबाट जमिनमा लुक ।
Enter into the rock, and hide thee in the dust, from before the terror of Jehovah, and from the glory of his majesty.
11 मानिसहको अहङ्कारी हेराइलाई तल झारिनेछ र मानिसहरूको घमण्डलाई तल पारिनेछ, अनि त्यो दिन परमप्रभुलाई मात्र उचालिनेछ ।
The lofty looks of man shall be brought low, and the haughtiness of men shall be bowed down, and Jehovah alone shall be exalted in that day.
12 किनकि घमण्ड गर्ने र उच्च पारिएका हरेकको विरुद्धमा, र हरेक अहङ्कारीको विरुद्धमा परमप्रभुको दिन आउनेछ— र त्यसलाई तल झारिनेछ—
For there shall be a day of Jehovah of hosts upon all that is proud and haughty, and upon all that is lifted up, and it shall be brought low,
13 र लेबनानका अग्ला र माथि उठेका सबै देवदारुका विरुद्धमा, र बाशानका सबै फँलाटका विरुद्धमा हुनेछ ।
and upon all the cedars of Lebanon that are high and lifted up, and upon all the oaks of Bashan,
14 सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभुको त्यो दिन सबै अग्ला पर्वतका विरुद्धमा, माथि उठेका सबै डाँडाका विरुद्धमा,
and upon all the high mountains, and upon all the hills that are lifted up,
15 र हरेक अग्ला धरहराका विरुद्धमा, छेड्नै नसक्ने हरेक पर्खालका विरुद्धमा,
and upon every lofty tower, and upon every fortified wall,
16 र तर्शीशका सबै पानी जहाजका विरुद्धमा र सबै सुन्दर जहाजका विरुद्धमा हुनेछ ।
and upon all the ships of Tarshish, and upon all pleasant imagery.
17 मानिसको घमण्डलाई तल झारिनेछ र मानिसहरूका हठको पतन हुनेछ । त्यो दिनमा परमप्रभु मात्र उच्च पारिनुहुनेछ ।
And the loftiness of man shall be bowed down, and the haughtiness of men shall be brought low, and Jehovah alone shall be exalted in that day.
18 मूर्तीहरू पुर्ण रूपमा बितेर जानेछन् ।
And the idols shall utterly pass away.
19 पृथ्वीलाई त्रासमा पार्न जब परमप्रभु खडा हुनुहुन्छ, तब मानिसहरू उहाँको त्रास र उहाँको वैभवको महिमाबाट लुक्न चट्टानहरूका गुफाहरू र जमिनको दुलोहरू भित्र पस्नेछन् ।
And men shall go into the caves of the rocks, and into the holes of the earth, from before the terror of Jehovah, and from the glory of his majesty, when he arises to shake the earth mightily.
20 त्यस दिन मानिहरूले सुन र चाँदीका आफ्ना मूर्तीहरू फाल्नेछन्, जसको पुजा गर्न तिनीहरू आफैले बनाएका छन्— ती तिनीहरूले छुचुन्द्रा र चमेराहरूका अगि फाल्नेछन् ।
In that day men shall cast away their idols of silver, and their idols of gold, which have been made for them to worship, to the moles and to the bats,
21 पृथ्वीलाई त्रासमा पार्न जब परमप्रभु खडा हुनुहुन्छ, तब मानिसहरू उहाँको त्रास र उहाँको वैभवको महिमाबाट लुक्न चट्टानहरूका प्वालहरू र कडा चट्टानहरूका कन्दराहरूमा पस्नेछन् ।
to go into the caverns of the rocks, and into the clefts of the ragged rocks, from before the terror of Jehovah, and from the glory of his majesty, when he arises to shake the earth mightily.
22 मानिस भरोसा गर्न छोड, जसको जिवनको सास नाकका प्वालहरूमा हुन्छ, किनकि उसको के मूल्य हुन्छ र?
Cease ye from man, whose breath is in his nostrils, for how is he to be accounted of?
