< यशैया 25 >

1 हे परमप्रभु, तपाईं मेरो परमेश्‍वर हुनुहुन्छ । तपाईंलाई म उच्‍च पार्नेछु, तपाईंको नाउँको म प्रशंसा गर्नेछु । किनकि धेरै अघि योजना बनाइएका कुराहरू, सुन्‍दर कुराहरू तपाईंले पुर्ण विश्‍वस्‍ततासाथ गर्नुभएको छ ।
Lord, you are my God. I will honor you and praise who you are, because you have done wonderful things that you planned long ago. You are faithful and trustworthy!
2 किन तपाईंले सहरलाई एउटा थुप्रो, किल्लाबन्दी गरेको सहरलाई भग्‍नावशेष र परदेशीहरूका किल्ला भएको सहरलाई नाश गर्नुभएको छ ।
You have turned the city into a pile of rubble; the fortified town is now a ruin; the foreigner palace is gone. It is no longer a city and it will never be rebuilt.
3 यसकारण बलिया मानिसहरूले तपाईंको महिमा गर्नेछन् । निर्दयी सहरका जातिहरूले तपाईंको डर मान्‍नेछन् ।
Because of this powerful nations will honor you; cities of brutal nations will be in awe of you.
4 किनकि गरीबको निम्ति तपाईं सुरक्षाको ठाउँ, खाँचोमा परेकाको निम्ति शरणस्थान— हुरीबाट बच्‍ने घर र तापबाट बच्‍ने छहारी हुनुभएको छ । जब निर्दयीहरूको सास पर्खालविरुद्ध आँधीजस्तै थियो,
But you have protected the poor and needy when they were in trouble, you shielded them from storms and shaded them from the heat. For the actions of brutal people are like rain beating against a wall,
5 र सुख्‍खा जमिनको ताप जस्‍तो थियो, तपाईंले विदेशीहरूका आवाजलाई निस्तेज गर्नुभयो, जसरी तापलाई बादलको छायाले निस्तेज पार्छ, त्यसरी नै निर्दयीको गीतको जवाफ दिइन्छ ।
like heat in a desert. You end the noisy uprising of foreigners. In the same way that a cloud's shadow cools down the heat of the day, so the song sung by brutal people is silenced.
6 यस पर्वतमाथि सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभुले सबै मानिसहरूका निम्ति मोटा-मोटा थोकहरू, उत्तम मद्यहरू, स्वदिष्‍ट मासु र मिठो मद्यको भोज तयार पार्नुहुनेछ ।
On this mountain the Lord Almighty will prepare a feast for all nations, a lavish feast of aged wines, rich food, and the best meat.
7 उहाँले मानिसहरूमाथिका छकनीहरू, सबै जातिहरूमाथि बुनिएका जालोहरू यही पर्वतमाथि नाश गर्नुहुनेछ ।
On this mountain he will destroy the veil that covers all the nations, the sheet that is over everyone.
8 उहाँले मृत्युलाई सदाको निम्ति निल्नुहुनेछ, र परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वरले सबैको मुहारको आँसु पुछ्नुहुनेछ । उहाँले आफ्‍ना मानिसहरूको अपमानलाई सबै पृथ्वीबाट हटाउनुहुनेछ, किनकि यो परमप्रभुले भन्‍नुभएको छ ।
He will destroy death forever. The Lord God will wipe away all tears, and everywhere he will take away the humiliation suffered by his people. The Lord has spoken.
9 त्यस दिन यसो भनिनेछ, “हेर, उहाँ नै हाम्रो परमेश्‍वर हुनुहुन्छ । हामीले उहाँको प्रतिक्षा गरेका छौं र उहाँले हामीलाई बचाउनुहुनेछ । उहाँ परमप्रभु हुनुहुन्छ । उहाँको उद्धारमा हामी खुसी हुनेछौं र आनन्द मनाउनेछौं ।
At that time his people will say, “Look! This is our God; we have trusted in him and he has saved us! This is the Lord we have been looking for. Now we can be happy and celebrate the salvation he brings!”
10 किनकि यो पर्वतमा परमप्रभुको हातले विश्रमा लिनेछ, अनि गोबरले भरिएको खाल्डोमा पराललाई कुल्चेझैं मोआबलाई त्यसकै ठाउँमा कुल्चिइनेछ
The Lord's hand of protection will be on this mountain. But the Moabites will be trampled underfoot like straw into the water of a manure pit.
11 पौडी खेल्‍नेले पौडनलाई आफ्नो हात फैलाएझैं तिनीहरूले त्‍यसको माझमा आफ्‍ना हातहरू फैलाउनेछन् । तर तिनीहरूका हातहरूका सीपहरूको बाबजुत पनि परमप्रभुले तिनीहरूका घमण्डलाई तल झार्नुहुनेछ ।
They will reach out their hands to try and save themselves, like swimmers using their hands to swim, but their pride will be humbled however much they thrash about.
12 तेरा किल्लाहरूका अग्‍ला पर्खालहरूलाई उहाँले तल जमिनमा माटोमा ढाल्‍नुहुनेछ ।
Moab, he will demolish your fortress with the high walls, bringing it down to the ground, into the dust.
