यशैया 28
1 एफ्राइमका प्रत्येक मतवालाहरूले लगाएका गौरवशाली फुलमाला र त्यसको महिमित सुन्दरताको ओइलाउने फुललाई, दाखमद्यले लट्ठ परेकाहरूका हरियाली बेसीको शिरमा लगाइएको फुलमालालाई धिक्कार!
Woe to the crown of pride of the drunkards of Ephraim, and to the fading flower of his glorious beauty, which is on the head of the fat valley of them that are overcome with wine!
2 हेर, परमप्रभुले शक्तिशाली र बलियो एक जनालाई, असिनाको हुरीबतासझैं अनि विनाशकारी आँधीझैं, मुसलधार झरी र बाडीको पानीझैं पठाउनुहुन्छ र उहाँले प्रत्येक फुलमालालाई जमिनमा फाल्नुहुनेछ ।
Behold, the Lord hath a mighty and strong one; as a tempest of hail, a destroying storm, as a tempest of mighty waters overflowing, shall he cast down to the earth with the hand.
3 एफ्राइमका मतवालाहरूका गौरवशाली फुलमालालाई खुट्टाले कुल्चिमिल्ची गरिनेछ ।
The crown of pride of the drunkards of Ephraim shall be trodden under foot:
4 त्यसको महिमित सुन्दरताको ओइलाउने फुल अर्थात् धनी बेसीको शिरमा रहेको छ, त्यो पहिले पाकेको अन्जिरजस्तो हुनेछ, जब कसैले त्यसलाई देख्छ, तब आफ्नो हातमा हुँदा नै त्यसले त्यो निलिहाल्छ ।
and the fading flower of his glorious beauty, which is on the head of the fat valley, shall be as the firstripe fig before the summer; which when he that looketh upon it seeth, while it is yet in his hand he eateth it up.
5 त्यो दिनमा सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभु नै सुन्दर मुकुट बन्नुहुनेछ र आफ्ना बाँकी रहेका मानिसहरूका निम्ति महिमाको मुकुट बन्नुहुनेछ ।
In that day shall the LORD of hosts be for a crown of glory, and for a diadem of beauty, unto the residue of his people:
6 न्याय आसनमा बस्नेको निम्ति न्यायको आत्मा र आफ्ना ढोकाहरूमा आफ्ना शत्रुलाई फर्काउनेहरूका निम्ति सामर्थ्य हुनुहुनेछ ।
and for a spirit of judgment to him that sitteth in judgment, and for strength to them that turn back the battle at the gate.
7 तर यिनीहरू पनि दाखमद्यले लरबराउछन् र कडा मद्यले लरखराउछन् । पुजारी र अगमवक्ता कडा मद्यले लरखाराउछन् र दाखमद्यले तिनीहरूलाई निल्छ । कडा मद्यले तिनीहरू लरखराउँछन्, तिनीहरू दर्शनमा लरखराउँछन् र निर्णयमा लरबराउँछन् ।
But these also have erred through wine, and through strong drink are gone astray; the priest and the prophet have erred through strong drink, they are swallowed up of wine, they are gone astray through strong drink; they err in vision, they stumble in judgment.
8 साँच्चै नै सबै टेबलहरू बान्ताले ढाकेकोछ, जसले गर्दा त्यहाँ कुनै सफा ठाउँ नै छैन ।
For all tables are full of vomit [and] filthiness, [so that there is] no place [clean].
9 त्यसले कसलाई ज्ञान सिकाउनेछ र त्यसले कसलाई सन्देश बताउनेछ? जसलाई दूध छोडाइएका छन् वा जसलाई बरखरै दूधबाट अलग गरिका छन्?
Whom will he teach knowledge? and whom will he make to understand the message? them that are weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breasts?
10 किनकि यो आज्ञामाथि आज्ञा, आज्ञामाथि आज्ञा, नियममाथि नियम, नियममाथि नियम, अलिकति यहाँ, अलिकति त्यहाँ ।
For it is precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, there a little.
11 साच्चै, यी मानिहरूसँग उहाँले गिल्ला गर्ने ओठहरू र विदेशी भाषामा बोल्नुहुनेछ ।
Nay, but by [men of] strange lips and with another tongue will he speak to this people:
12 विगतमा उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई भन्नुभयो, “यो विश्राम हो, जो थकित हुन्छ त्यसलाई विश्राम गर्न देओ । अनि यो ताजा हुने कुरा हो,” तर तिनीहरू सुन्दैनन् ।
to whom he said, This is the rest, give ye rest to him that is weary; and this is the refreshing: yet they would not hear.
13 त्यसैले तिनीहरूको निम्ति परमप्रभुको वचन आज्ञामाथि आज्ञा, आज्ञामाथि आज्ञा, नियममाथि नियम, नियममाथि नियम, अलिकति यहाँ, अलिकति त्यहाँ हुनेछ । ताकि तिनीहरू जान र पछि हट्न र तोडिन र समातिन सक्छन् ।
Therefore shall the word of the LORD be unto them precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, there a little; that they may go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken.
14 त्यसैले ए गिल्ला गर्नेहरू हो, तिमीहरू जसले यरूशलेममा भएका यी मानिसहरूमाथि राज्य गर्छौ, तिमीहरूले परमप्रभुको वचन सुन ।
Wherefore hear the word of the LORD, ye scornful men, that rule this people which is in Jerusalem:
15 तिमीहरूले यसो भनेका हुनाले यस्तो हुनेछ, “हामीले मृत्युसित करार बाँधेका छौं र चिहनसँग हामी समहती गरेका छौं । त्यसैले डरलाग्दो कोर्राले हामीलाई भेट्टाउँदा, त्यो हामीकहाँ पुग्नेछैन । किनकि हामीले झुठलाई हाम्रो शरणस्थान बनाएका छौं र असत्यमा वास बसेका छौं।” (Sheol h7585)
Because ye have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with hell are we at agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us; for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves: (Sheol h7585)
16 यसकारण परमप्रभु परमेश्वर भन्नहुन्छ, “हेर्, म सियोनमा एउटा जगको ढुङ्गा, जाँचिएको ढुङ्गा, बहुमूल्य कुनेढुङ्गा, एउटा बलयो जग राख्नेछु । जसले विश्वास गर्छ ऊ लाजमा पर्नेछैन ।
therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner [stone] of sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste.
17 न्यायलाई म नाप्ने लट्ठी र धर्मिकतालाई साहुल बनाउनेछु । असिनाले झुटको शरणस्थानलाई बढार्नेछ र बाढीले लुक्ने ठाउँलाई डुबाउनेछ ।
And I will make judgment the line, and righteousness the plummet: and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the hiding place.
18 मृत्युसँग गरेको तिमीहरूको करार खारेज हुनेछ र चिहानसँगको तिमीहरूको सहमति रहनेछैन । जब उर्लंदो बाढी आउँछ, त्यसले तिमीहरूलाई डुबाउनेछ । (Sheol h7585)
And your covenant with death shall be disannulled, and your agreement with hell shall not stand; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it. (Sheol h7585)
19 जब त्यो आउँछ त्यसले तिमीहरूलाई डुबाउनेछ, त्यो हरेक बिहान आउनेछ र त्यो दिन र रात आउनेछ । जब सन्देश बुझिन्छ, त्यसले त्रास पैदा गर्नेछ ।
As often as it passeth through, it shall take you; for morning by morning shall it pass through, by day and by night: and it shall be nought but terror to understand the message.
20 किनकि तन्केर सुत्नलाई ओछ्यान छोटो छ र आफूलाई ढाक्न कम्बल सानो छ ।”
For the bed is shorter than that a man can stretch himself on it; and the covering narrower than that he can wrap himself in it.
21 पराजीम पर्वतझैं परमप्रभु उठ्नुहुनेछ । गिबोनको बेंसीमा झैं आफ्नो काम, आफ्नो अनौठो काम र उहाँको अद्भुत काम गर्न उहाँ उठ्नुहुनेछ ।
For the LORD shall rise up as in mount Perazim, he shall be wroth as in the valley of Gibeon; that he may do his work, his strange work, and bring to pass his act, his strange act.
22 यसकारण, अब गिल्ला नगर, नत्र तिमीहरूको बन्धन झन् कसिलो पारिनेछ । मैले सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभु परमेश्वरबाट पृथ्वीको विनाशको उर्दी सुनेको छु ।
Now therefore be ye not scorners, lest your bands be made strong: for a consummation, and that determined, have I heard from the Lord, the LORD of hosts, upon the whole earth.
23 ध्यान देओ र मेरो आवाज सुन । ध्यान मग्न होओ र मेरा वचनहरू सुन ।
Give ye ear, and hear my voice; hearken, and hear my speech.
24 छर्नलाई दिनभरि जोत्ने किसानले के जमिन जोत्ने काम मात्र गर्छ र? के उसले बाँजो फुटाउने र डल्लो फुटाउँछ मात्र गर्छ र?
Doth the plowman plow continually to sow? doth he [continually] open and break the clods of his ground?
25 जब त्यसले जमिन तयार पार्छ, के त्यसले सूँप छर्ने र जीराको बीउ फैलाउने, गहुँलाई ड्याङमा रोप्ने र जौलाई ठिक ठाउँमा र कठियालाई यसको छेउहरूमा रोप्दैन?
When he hath made plain the face thereof, doth he not cast abroad the fitches, and scatter the cummin, and put in the wheat in rows and the barley in the appointed place and the spelt in the border thereof?
26 त्यसको परमेश्वरले त्यसलाई सिकाउनुहुन्छ । उहाँले त्यसलाई बुद्धिमनीसाथ सिकाउनुहुन्छ ।
For his God doth instruct him aright, [and] doth teach him.
27 अनि सूँपलाई हथौडाले झारिंदैन, न जीरालाई झार्न गाडा नै गुडाइन्छ । तर सूँपलाई लट्ठीले कुटिन्छ र जीरालाई लुहुरोले कुटिन्छ ।
For the fitches are not threshed with a sharp [threshing] instrument, neither is a cart wheel turned about upon the cummin; but the fitches are beaten out with a staff, and the cummin with a rod.
28 रोटी बनाउन अन्नलाई पिसिन्छ, तर अति मिहिन पारिंदैन, र त्यसको गाडाका पाङ्ग्राहरू र त्यसका घोडाहरूले यसलाई छरे तापनि त्यसका घोडाहरूले यसलाई चूरचूर पार्दैनन् ।
Bread [corn] is ground; for he will not ever be threshing it: and though the wheel of his cart and his horses scatter it, he doth not grind it.
29 यो पनि सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभुबाट नै आउँछ, जो शिक्षा दिनमा अति हसल र बुद्धिमा उत्कृष्ट हुनुहुन्छ ।
This also cometh forth from the LORD of hosts, which is wonderful in counsel, and excellent in wisdom.
