यशैया 22

1 दर्शनको बेसीको विषयमा एउटा घोषणाः के कारणले तिमीहरू सबै जना घरको छतमाथि गएका छौ?

The burden of the valley of vision. What ails you now, that you have all gone up to the housetops?

2 होहल्लाले भरिएको सहर र खुसीले भरिएको नगरका आवाजहरू सुन्‍नलाई तिमीहरूले त्‍यसो गरेका हौ? तिमीहरूका मृतहरू तरवारले मारिएको थिएनन् र तिनीहरू युद्धमा मरेनन् ।

You that are full of shouting, a tumultuous city, a joyous town; your slain are not slain with the sword, neither are they dead in battle.

3 तिमीहरूका सबै शासकहरू एकसाथ भागे, तर धनु समेत प्रयोग नगरी तिनीहरू समातिए । तिनीहरू धेरै टाढा भागेका थिए तापनि तिनीहरू सबै जना एकसाथ समातिए ।

All your rulers fled away together. They were bound by the archers. All who were found by you were bound together. They fled far away.

4 यसकारण मैले भनें, “मलाई नहेर, म धुरुधुरु रुनेछु । मेरा मानिसहरूका छोरीको विनाशको बारेमा मलाई सान्त्वना दिने कोसिस नगर ।”

Therefore I said, “Look away from me. I will weep bitterly. Don’t labor to comfort me for the destruction of the daughter of my people.

5 किनकि दर्शनको बेसीमा सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभुको निम्‍ति कोलाहल, कुल्चिने अलमल पार्ने र पर्खालहरू भत्काउने र मानिसहरू डाँडाहरूतिर रुने दिन हो ।

For it is a day of confusion, and of treading down, and of perplexity, from 'Adonay, Adonai Tzva'ot [Lord, Yahweh Commander of heaven’s armies], in the valley of vision; a breaking down of the walls, and a crying to the mountains.”

6 रथीहरू र घोडचढीहरूका साथमा एलामले ठोक्रो लिनेछ र कीरले ढाललाई नाङ्गो बनाउछ ।

Elam carried his quiver, with chariots of men and horsemen; and Kir uncovered the shield.

7 तेरा उत्तम बेसीहरू रथहरूले भरिनेछन् र घोडचढीहरूले ढोकाहरूमा आफ्‍ना ठाउँ ओगट्नेछन् ।

Your choicest valleys were full of chariots, and the horsemen set themselves in array at the gate.

8 उहाँले यहूदाको सुरक्षालाई हटाउनुभयो । तिमीहरूले त्यस दिन वनको महलमा हतियारहरू हेर्‍यौ ।

He took away the covering of Judah [Praised]; and you looked in that day to the armor in the house of the forest.

9 तिमीहरूले दाऊदका सहरका प्‍वालहरू देख्यौ, ती धेरै थिए र तिमीहरूले तल्‍लो तलाउबाट पानी जम्‍मा गर्‍यौ ।

You saw the breaches of David [Beloved]’s city, that they were many; and you gathered together the waters of the lower pool.

10 तिमीहरूले यरूशलेमा घरहरू गन्यौ र तिमीहरूले पर्खाललाई बलियो पार्न घरहरू भत्कायौ ।

You counted the houses of Jerusalem [City of peace], and you broke down the houses to fortify the wall.

11 तिमीहरूले पुरानो पानीलो तलाउको निम्ति पर्खालहरूको बिचमा एउटा जलाशय बनायौ । तर तिमीहरूले सहरको निर्माणकर्तालाई विचार गरेनौ, जसले धेरै पहिले नै यसको योजना गर्नुभएको थियो ।

You also made a reservoir between the two walls for the water of the old pool. But you didn’t look to him who had done this, neither did you have respect for him who purposed it long ago.

12 त्यस दिन परमप्रभु सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभुले रुन, विलाप गर्न, कपाल खौरन र भाङ्ग्रा लगाउनलाई बोलाउनुभयो ।

In that day, 'Adonay Adonai Tzva'ot [Lord Yahweh Commander of heaven’s armies], called to weeping, and to mourning, and to baldness, and to dressing in sackcloth:

13 तर त्‍यसको साटोमा हेर, उत्सव र खुसी, गाइवस्तु काट्ने र भेडाहरू मार्ने, मासु खाने र दाखमद्य पिउने गरियो । हामी खाऔं र पिऔं, किनकि भोलि हामी मर्नेछौं भन्‍दैछन् ।

and behold, joy and gladness, killing cattle and killing sheep, eating meat and drinking wine: “Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we will die.”

14 यो कुरा सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभुले मेरो कानमा प्रकट गर्नुभयोः “निश्‍चय नै यो अपराधको निम्‍ति मृत्‍युमा पनि तिमीहरूलाई क्षमा हुनेछैन,” परमप्रभु सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभु भन्‍नुहुन्छ ।

Adonai Tzva'ot [Yahweh Commander of heaven’s armies] revealed himself in my ears, “Surely this depravity (moral evil) will not be forgiven you until you die,” says 'Adonay, Adonai Tzva'ot [Lord, Yahweh Commander of heaven’s armies].

15 परमप्रभु सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभु यसो भन्‍नुहुन्छ, “यो प्रशासक शेब्‍नाकहाँ जसले महलको रेखदेख गर्छ र भन्,

Thus says 'Adonay, Adonai Tzva'ot [Lord, Yahweh Commander of heaven’s armies], “Go, get yourself to this treasurer, even to Shebna, who is over the house, and say,

16 'तैंले यहाँ के गरिरहेको छस्, अनि आफ्नो निम्ति चिहान खोप्‍न, उच्‍च टाउँमा चिहान खन्‍न र चट्टानमा विश्राम गर्ने ठाउँ कुँद्‍न तँलाई कसले अनुमति दियो?”

‘What are you doing here? Who has you here, that you have dug out a tomb here?’ Cutting himself out a tomb on high, chiseling a habitation for himself in the rock!”

17 हेर्, परमप्रभुले तँलाई फाल्‍न लाग्‍नुभएको छ, ए शक्तिशाली मानिस, तँलाई फाल्‍न लाग्‍नुभएको छ । उहाँले तँलाई कसेर समात्‍नुहुनेछ ।

Behold, Adonai will overcome you and hurl you away violently. Yes, he will grasp you firmly.

18 निश्‍चय नै उहाँले तँलाई हावामा फनफन घुमाउनुहुनेछ र ठुलो देशमा बल फालेझैं फाल्‍नुहुनेछ । तँ त्यहाँ नै मर्नेछस्, तेरा गौरवशालि रथहरू त्यहाँ हुनेछन् । तँ तेरो मालिकको महलमा तँ शर्ममा पर्नेछस् ।

He will surely wind you around and around, and throw you like a ball into a large country. There you will die, and there the chariots of your glory will be, you shame of your lord’s house.

19 तेरो अफिसबाट र तेरो ठाउँबाट तँलाई म निकाल्नेछु । तँ तल खसालिनेछस् ।

I will thrust you from your office. You will be pulled down from your station.

20 त्‍यो दिन यस्‍तो हुनेछ, हिल्कियाहका छोरा मेरो सेवक एल्याकीमलाई म बोलाउनेछु ।

It will happen in that day that I will call my servant Eliakim the son of Hilkiah,

21 तेरो अलखा म उसलाई लगाइदिनेछु र तेरो पटुका उसलाई बाँधिदिनेछु, तेरो अधिकार म उसको हातमा सुम्‍पिनेछु । यरूशलेमका बासिन्दाहरू र यहूदाका घरानाको निम्ति निम्ति ऊ नै पिता हुनेछ ।

and I will clothe him with your robe, and strengthen him with your belt. I will commit your government into his hand; and he will be a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem [City of peace], and to the house of Judah [Praised].

22 दाऊदको घरानाको साँचो म उसको काँधमा राख्‍नेछु । उसले खोल्नेछ र कसैले बन्द गर्नेछैन र कसैले खोल्नेछैन ।

I will lay the key of David [Beloved]’s house on his shoulder. He will open, and no one will shut. He will shut, and no one will open.

23 म त्यसको निम्ति सुरक्षित स्थानमा एउटा किला गाड्‍नेछु र आफ्‍नो पिताको घरानाको निम्ति ऊ गौरवको आसन हुनेछ ।

I will fasten him like a nail in a sure place. He will be for a throne of glory to his father’s house.

24 उसको घराना, सन्तानहरू र वंशको, हरेक सानो भाँडोदेखि कचौराहरू र गाग्रोहरूका गौरव तिनीहरूले उसमा नै राख्‍नेछन् ।

They will hang on him all the glory of his father’s house, the offspring and the issue, every small vessel, from the cups even to all the pitchers.

25 यो सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो— त्यो दिन सुरक्षित स्थानमा गडिएको किलाले ठाउँ छोड्‍नेछ, भाँचिनेछ र ढल्‍नेछ अनि त्यसमा भएको भार हटाइनेछ— किनकि परमप्रभुले भन्‍नुभएको छ ।

“In that day,” says Adonai Tzva'ot [Yahweh Commander of heaven’s armies], “the nail that was fastened in a sure place will give way. It will be cut down, and fall. The burden that was on it will be cut off, for Adonai has spoken it.”
