यशैया 3

1 हेर, सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभुले यरूशलेम र यहूदाबाट, टेवा र लट्टी: अर्थात् रोटीको सारा आफुर्ती र पानीको सारा आपुर्ती,

For behold, the Lord, YHWH of Hosts, Is turning aside from Jerusalem and from Judah [Both] stay and staff: Every stay of bread and every stay of water;

2 वीर मानिसहरू र योद्धाहरू, न्यायकर्ता र अगमवक्ता, जोखना हेर्नेहरू र धर्मगुरुहरू,

Mighty and man of war, judge and prophet, And diviner and elderly,

3 पचास जनाका कप्‍तानहरू र आदरणिय नागरिक, सल्‍लाहकारहरू, सिपालु कारीगरहरू र निपुण जादूगरहरू हटाउन लाग्‍नुभएको छ ।

Head of fifty, and accepted of faces, And counselor, and wise craftsmen, And discerning charmer.

4 “युवाहरूलाई मात्र म तिनीहरूका अगुवाहरूको बनाउनेछु र जवानहरूले तिनीहरूमाथि शासन गर्नेछन् ।

And I have made youths their heads, And sucklings rule over them.

5 हरेक मानिस एउटाले अर्कोलाई, हरेक आफ्नै छिमेकीद्वरा मानिसहरूले अत्याचार गर्नेछन् । बालकले वृद्धको अपमान गर्नेछ र तुच्छले आदरणियलाई चुनौति दिनेछ ।

And the people has exacted—man on man, Even a man on his neighbor, The youths enlarge themselves against the aged, And the lightly esteemed against the honored.

6 एक जना मानिसले आफ्नै बुबाको घरमा आफ्नै दाजुलाई समातेर यसो भन्‍ने छ, 'तिमीसँग कोट छ । हाम्रो शासक होऊ, र यो विनाश जिम्‍मा तिमीले लेऊ ।'

When one lays hold on his brother, Of the house of his father, [by] the garment, “Come, you are a ruler to us, And this ruin [is] under your hand.”

7 त्यो दिनमा ऊ चिच्याउनेछ र भन्‍नेछ, 'म निको पार्ने हुनेछैन । मसँग रोटी वा लुगा छैन । तिमीहरूले मलाई मानिसहरूका शासक बनाउनेछैनौ' ।”

He lifts up, in that day, saying, “I am not a binder up, And in my house is neither bread nor garment, You do not make me a ruler of the people.”

8 किनकि यरूशलेमले ठेस खाएको छ र यहूदा ढलेको छ, किनभने तिनीहरूका बोलिवचन र कामहरू परमप्रभुको विरुद्धमा छन्, उहाँको महिमाको दृष्‍टिको विरोध गर्छन् ।

For Jerusalem has stumbled, and Judah has fallen, For their tongue and their doings [are] against YHWH, To provoke the eyes of His glory.

9 तिनीहरूका विरुद्धको गवाहीहरू तिनीहरूकै अनुहारहरूमा खोज्‍नुहोस् । अनि सदोमले झैं तिनीहरूले आफ्‍ना पाप भन्‍नेछन् । तिनीहरूले त्‍यो लुकाउने छैनन् । तिनीहरूलाई धिक्‍कार! किनकि तिनीहरूले आफ्नै निम्ति सर्वनाश पुरा गरेका छन् ।

The appearance of their faces witnessed against them, And their sin, as Sodom, they declared, They have not hidden! Woe to their soul, For they have done evil to themselves.

10 धर्मी मानिसलाई राम्रो हुनेछ भन, किनकि तिनीहरूले आफ्‍ना कामहरूका फल खानेछन् ।

Say to the righteous that [it is] good, Because they eat the fruit of their doings.

11 दुष्‍टलाई धिक्‍कार! उसलाई खराब हुनेछ, किनकि उहाँको हातको बदला उसैमाथि पर्नेछ ।

Woe to the wicked—evil, Because the deed of his hand is done to him.

12 मेरा मानिसहरू—बालबालिका तिनीहरूका अत्‍याचारी हुन् र स्‍त्रीहरूले तिनीहरूमाथि शासन गर्नेछन् । मेरा मानिसहरू, तँलाई अगुवाइ गर्नेहरूले तँलाई भड्काउनेछन् र तेरा मार्ग कता जाने भन्‍ने कुरा नै अलमलमा पार्नेछन् ।

My people—its exactors [are] sucklings, And women have ruled over it. My people—your eulogists are causing to err, And the way of your paths swallowed up.

13 दोष लगाउनलाई परमप्रभु खडा हुनुहुन्छ । मानिसहरूलाई दोष लगाउन उहाँ खडा हुनुहुन्छ ।

YHWH has stood up to plead, And He is standing to judge the peoples.

14 आफ्‍ना मानिसहरूका धर्मगुरुहरू र तिनीहरूका अगुवाहरू विरुद्ध परमप्रभु न्‍याय लिएर आउनुहुनेछः “तिमीहरूले दाखबारी विनाश पारेका छौ । गरीबलाई लुटेको माल तिमीहरूका घरहरूमा छन् ।

YHWH enters into judgment With [the] elderly of His people, and its heads: “And you, you have consumed the vineyard, Plunder of the poor [is] in your houses.

15 तिमीहरूले मेरा मानिसहरूलाई किन कुल्चन्छौ र गरिबहरूको अनुहारहरू किन पिस्‍छौ?” यो सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो ।

Why? Why do you [do this]? You bruise My people, And you grind the faces of the poor.” A declaration of the Lord, YHWH of Hosts, And YHWH says:

16 परमप्रभु भन्‍नुहुन्छ, सियोनकी छोरीहरू घमण्डी छन्, तिनीहरू मुण्टो ठाडो पार्दै, चञ्‍चले आँखाले, हिंड्‍दा छोटो-छोटो पाइला सारेर, तिनीहरूका गोडामा भएका पाउजुका छिन्‌छिन्‌ आवाज निकाल्दै हिंड्छन् ।

“Because that daughters of Zion have been haughty, And they walk stretching out the neck, And deceiving [with] the eyes, They go walking and mincing, And they make a jingling with their feet,

17 यसकारण परमप्रभुले सियोनकी छोरीहरूका टाउकोमा घावै-घाउ पार्नुहुनेछ, र परमप्रभुले तिनीहरूलाई मुडुलो पार्नुहुनेछ ।

The Lord has also scabbed The crown of the head of daughters of Zion, And YHWH exposes their simplicity.

18 त्यो दिन परमप्रभुले तिनीहरूका सुन्दर पाउजुहरू, शिरबन्दीहरू, चन्द्रहारहरू,

In that day the Lord turns aside The beauty of the jingling ornaments, And of the embroidered works, And of the crescents,

19 कुण्डलहरू, बालाहरू, झुम्‍काहरू,

Of the pendants, and the bracelets, and the veils,

20 शिर ढाक्‍नेहरू, कल्लीहरू, पटुकाहरू, अत्तरदानीहरू, जन्तरहरू,

Of the headdresses, and the ornaments of the legs, And of the bands, And of the perfume boxes, and the amulets,

21 औंठीहरू, नत्थहरू,

Of the seals, and of the nose-rings,

22 चाडका वस्‍त्रहरू, पछ्‍यौराहरू, घुम्‍टोहरू, हाते-ब्‍यागहरू,

Of the costly apparel, and of the mantles, And of the coverings, and of the purses,

23 हाते-ऐनाहरू, मसिनो मलमल, शिरफुलहरू र मजेत्रोहरू हटाउनुहुनेछ ।

Of the mirrors, and of the linen garments, And of the hoods, and of the veils,

24 सुगन्धित अत्तरको सट्टामा दूर्गन्ध हुनेछ । अनि पटुकाको सट्टामा डोरी हुनेछ । राम्ररी कोरेको कपालको सट्टामा मुडुलो हुनेछ । अनि पोशाकको सट्टामा भाङ्ग्राको लुगा हुनेछ । र सुन्दरताको सट्टामा डामै-डाम हुनेछ ।

And it has been, instead of spice is muck, And instead of a girdle, a rope, And instead of curled work, baldness, And instead of a stomacher a girdle of sackcloth.

25 तेरा मानिसहरू तरवारले मारिनेछन् र तेरा बलिया मानिसहरू युद्धमा ढल्नेछन् ।

For instead of glory, your men fall by sword, And your might in battle.

26 यरूशलेमका ढोकाहरूले विलाप र विलौना गर्नेछन् । अनि त्यो एक्लो हुनेछ र भूइँमा बस्‍नेछ ।

And her openings have lamented and mourned, Indeed, she has been emptied, she sits on the earth!”
