< यशैया 30 >
1 यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो, “धिक्कार विद्रोही छोराछोरीलाई! तिनीहरू योजना बनाउँछन्, तर मबाट योजना होइन । तिनीहरूले अरू जातिहरूसँग मित्रता गाँस्छन्, तर तिनीहरू मेरो आत्माद्वारा निर्देशित भएनन्, त्यसैले तिनीहरूले पापमाथि पाप थप्छन् ।
Woe to the rebellious sons, says Jehovah, who take counsel, but not of me, and who make a league, but not of my Spirit, that they may add sin to sin,
2 तिनीहरू तल मिश्रदेशमा जान निस्कन्छन्, तर मेरो निर्देशन खोजेका छैनन् । तिनीहरूले फारोबाट सुरक्षा खोज्छन् र मिश्रदेशको छायामा शरण लिन्छन् ।
who set out to go down into Egypt, and have not asked at my mouth, to strengthen themselves in the strength of Pharaoh, and to take refuge in the shadow of Egypt!
3 यसकारण फारोको सुरक्षा तिमीहरूको शर्म हुनेछ र मिश्रदेशको छायाको शरण तिमीहरूको अपमान हुनेछ,
Therefore the strength of Pharaoh shall be your shame, and the refuge in the shadow of Egypt your confusion.
4 यद्यपि तिनीहरूका शासकहरू सोअनमा र तिनीहरूका दूतहरू हानेसमा आएका छन् ।
For their rulers are at Zoan, and their ambassadors have come to Hanes.
5 आफूलाई सहायता गर्न नसक्ने मानिसहरूको कारणले तिनीहरू लज्जित हुनेछन्, जो न सहायता न मदत हुन्, तर शर्म र अपमान हुन्छन् ।”
They shall all be ashamed because of a people who cannot profit them, who are not a help nor profit, but a shame, and also a reproach.
6 नेगेवको घमण्डको बारेमा एउटा घोषणाः कष्ट र खतराको देशबाट भएर सिंहनी र सिंह, साप र उड्ने सर्प निस्कनेछन्, आफूलाई सहायता गर्न नसक्ने मानिसहरूकहाँ लैजानलाई तिनीहरूले गधाहरूलाई आफ्ना सम्पत्ति र ऊँटहरूलाई आफ्ना बहुमूल्य भण्डारहरू बोकाउँछन् ।
The burden of the beasts of the South. Through the land of trouble and anguish, from where come the lioness and the lion, the viper and fiery flying serpent, they carry their riches upon the shoulders of young donkeys, and their treasures upon the humps of camels, to a people who shall not profit them.
7 किनकि मिश्रदेशको सहायता व्यार्थ हुन्छ । यसकारण मैले त्यसलाई राहाब भने, जो चुपचाप बस्छ ।
For Egypt helps in vain, and to no purpose. Therefore I have called her Rahab who sits still.
8 अब जा, तिनीहरूको सामु यो एउटा पाटीमा लेख् र एउटा मुट्ठामा यो लेख्, ताकि आउने समयको निम्ति यो गवाहीको रूपमा सुरक्षित हुन सकोस् ।
Now go, write it before them on a tablet, and inscribe it on a scroll, that it may be for the time to come forever and ever.
9 किनकि यी विद्रोही मानिसहरू, झुट बोल्ने छोराछोरी, परमप्रभुको शिक्षा नसुन्ने छोराछोरी हुन् ।
For it is a rebellious people, lying sons, sons who will not hear the law of Jehovah,
10 तिनीहरूले दर्शीहरूलाई भन्छन्, “नहेर्नुहोस्,” र अगमवक्ताहरूलाई भन्छन्, “हामीलाई सत्य अगमवाणी नगर्नुहोस् । हाम्रा निम्ति चापलुसी कुरा गर्नुहोस्, भ्रम अगमवाणी गर्नुहोस् ।
who say to the seers, Do not see, and to the prophets, Do not prophesy to us right things. Speak to us smooth things. Prophesy deceits.
11 मार्गबाट तर्की जानुहोस्, बाटोबाट हट्नुहोस् । इस्राएलका परमपवित्रलाई हाम्रो सामु नबोल्ने पार्नुहोस् ।”
Get you out of the way. Turn aside out of the path. Cause the Holy One of Israel to cease from before us.
12 यसकारण इस्राएलका परमपवित्र भन्नुहुन्छ, “तिमीहरूले यो वचन इन्कार गरेको र अत्यचार र छलमा भरोसा गरेको अनि त्यसमा अडेको छौ,
Therefore thus says the Holy One of Israel, Because ye despise this word, and trust in oppression and perverseness, and rely on it,
13 त्यसैले यो पाप खस्नलाई तयार भएको टुटेको थोकजस्तै, तुरुन्तै अचानक रूपमा खस्न लागेको अग्लो पर्खालको निस्केको भागजस्तै हुनेछ ।”
therefore this iniquity shall be to you as a breach ready to fall, swelling out in a high wall, whose breaking comes suddenly in an instant.
14 कुमालेको भाडा फुटेझैं उहाँले त्यसलाई फुटाउनुहुनेछ । उहाँले त्यसलाई छोड्नु हुनेछैन, ताकि त्यहाँ त्यसका टुक्रामध्येबाट चुल्होबाट आगो निकाल्ने वा इनारबाट पानी उबाउने टुक्रा पाइनेछैन ।
And he shall break it as a potter's vessel is broken, breaking it in pieces without sparing, so that there shall not be found among the pieces of it a shard with which to take fire from the hearth, or to dip up water out of the cistern.
15 किनकि परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमपवित्र परमेश्वर यसो भन्नुहुन्छ, “फर्कनु र विश्राम गर्नुले तिमीहरू बचाइनेछौ । चुपचाप बस्नु र भरोसा गर्नुले तिमीहरूले बल पाउनेछौ । तर तिमीहरू तत्पर भएनौ ।
For thus said the lord Jehovah, the Holy One of Israel, Ye shall be saved in returning and rest. Your strength shall be in quietness and in confidence. And ye would not,
16 तिमीहरूले भन्यौ, ‘होइन, किनकि हामी घोडामा भाग्नेछौं,' यसरी तिमीहरू भाग्नेछौ । अनि 'हामी छिटो दौडने घोडाहरूमा चढ्नेछौं,' त्यसैले तिमीहरूलाई खेद्नेहरू झन् छिटो हुनेछन् ।
but ye said, No, for we will flee upon horses. Therefore ye shall flee. And ye said, We will ride upon the swift. Therefore those who pursue you shall be swift.
17 एक जनाको धम्कीले एक हजार जना भाग्नेछन् । पाँच जनाको धम्कीले तिमीहरूका बाँकी रहेकाहरू डाँडाको टाकुराको झन्डाको डन्डा वा पर्वतमाथिको झन्डाजस्तो नभएसम्म भाग्नेछौ ।
One thousand shall flee at the threat of one. Ye shall flee at the threat of five, till ye are left as a beacon upon the top of a mountain, and as an ensign on a hill.
18 तापनि परमप्रभुले तिमीहरू प्रति अनुग्रही हुनलाई आशा गरिरहनुभएको छ, यसकारण तिमीहरूलाई दया देखाउन उहाँ तयार हुनुहुन्छ । किनकि परमप्रभु न्यायको परमेश्वर हुनहुन्छ । उहाँको प्रतिक्षा गर्ने सबै जना धन्यका हुन् ।
And therefore Jehovah will wait, that he may be gracious to you. And therefore he will be exalted, that he may have mercy upon you, for Jehovah is a God of justice. Blessed are all those who wait for him.
19 किनकि मानिसहरू सियोनमा, यरूशलेमा बस्नेछन् र तिमीहरू फेरि रुनेछैनौ । तिमीहरूको रुवाइको आवाज सुन्दा उहाँ निश्चय नै अनुग्रही हुनुहुनेछ । जब उहाँले त्यो सुन्नुहुन्छ, तब उहाँले तिमीहरूलाई जवाफ दिनुहुनेछ ।
For the people shall dwell in Zion at Jerusalem. Thou shall weep no more. He will surely be gracious to thee at the voice of thy cry. When he shall hear, he will answer thee.
20 परमप्रभुलले दुःखको रोटी र कष्टको पानी दिनुभए तापनि, र त्यसो हुँदा पनि तिमीहरूका शिक्षक तिमीहरूबाट लुक्नुहुनेछैन, तर तिमीहरूले आफ्नो शिक्षकलाई आफ्नै आँखाले देख्नेछौ ।
And though the Lord give you the bread of adversity and the water of affliction, yet thy teachers shall not be hidden anymore, but thine eyes shall see thy teachers.
21 जब तिमीहरू दाहिने फर्कन्छौ वा जब तिमीहरू देब्रे फर्कन्छौ, तब तिमीहरूका पछाडिबाट यसो भनिरहेको आवाज तिमीहरूका कानले सुन्नेछन् “बाटो यही हो, यसैमा हिंड ।”
And thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, This is the way, walk ye in it when ye turn to the right hand, and when ye turn to the left.
22 तिमीहरूले आफ्ना खोपिएका चाँदीका र सुनले बनाइएका आकृतिहरूलाई अपवित्र तुल्याउनेछौ । तिमीहरूले महिनावारीको फोहर फालेझैं ती फाल्नेछौ । तिनलाई तिमीहरू भन्नेछौ, “यहाँबाट गइहाल ।”
And ye shall defile the overlaying of thy graven images of silver, and the plating of thy molten images of gold. Thou shall cast them away as an unclean thing. Thou shall say to it, Get thee away.
23 तिमीहरूले जमिनमा बीउ छर्दा उहाँले तिमीहरूलाई वर्षा र जमिनबाट प्रशस्त रोटी दिनुहुनेछ, र अन्नहरू प्रशस्त हुनेछन् । त्यो दिनमा तिमीहरूका गाइवस्तु फराकिलो खर्कमा चर्नेछन् ।
And he will give the rain for thy seed, with which thou shall sow the ground, and bread of the increase of the ground, and it shall be fat and plenteous. In that day thy cattle shall feed in large pastures.
24 जमिन जोत्ने गोरुहरू र गधाहरूले बेल्चा र नाङलोले निफनिएका दाना खानेछन् ।
Likewise the oxen and the young donkeys that till the ground shall eat savory provender, which has been winnowed with the shovel and with the fork.
25 धरहरा ढलेर ठुलो संहार भएको दिनमा, हरेक अग्लो पहाड र हरेक अग्लो डाँडामा, त्यहाँ बगिरहने खोलाहरू र खोल्साहरू हुनेछन् ।
And there shall be upon every lofty mountain, and upon every high hill, brooks and streams of waters, in the day of the great slaughter, when the towers fall.
26 चन्द्रमाको ज्योति सूर्यको ज्योतिजस्तै हुनेछ र सूर्यको ज्योति सात दिनको सूर्यको ज्योतिजस्तै सात गुणा बढी चहकिलो हुनेछ । परमप्रभुले आफ्ना मानिसहरूका घाउमा पट्टि लगाउनुहुनेछ र घाइतेहरूका चोटहरू निको पार्नुहुनेछ ।
Moreover the light of the moon shall be as the light of the sun, and the light of the sun shall be sevenfold, as the light of seven days, in the day that Jehovah binds up the hurt of his people, and heals the stroke of their wound.
27 हेर, परमप्रभुको नाउँ टाढाबाट उहाँको रिसले जलिरहेको र गाढा धूवाँमा आउँछ । उहाँका ओठहरू क्रोधले पुर्ण छन् र उहाँको जिब्रो विनाश गर्ने आगोजस्तै छ ।
Behold, the name of Jehovah comes from far, burning with his anger, and in thick rising smoke. His lips are full of indignation, and his tongue is as a devouring fire,
28 उहाँको सास जातिहरूलाई विनाशको नाङ्लोले निफन्न घाँटीसम्म नै आउने उर्लंदो जलाधारजस्तै छ । उहाँको सास मानिसहरूलाई भर्माउन लगाउने मानिसहरूको बङ्गरामा लगाइएको लगामजस्तो छ ।
and his breath is as an overflowing stream that reaches even to the neck, to sift the nations with the sieve of destruction. And a bridle that causes to err shall be in the jaws of the peoples.
29 तिमीहरूले पवित्र चाड मनाउदा झैं रातमा पनि गीत गाउनेछौ र परमप्रभुको पर्वतमा अर्थात् इस्राएलको चट्टानकहाँ बाँसुरी बजाउँदै जाँदाको जस्तै मन खुसी हुनेछ ।
Ye shall have a song as in the night when a holy feast is kept, and gladness of heart, as he who goes with a pipe to come to the mountain of Jehovah, to the Rock of Israel.
30 परमप्रभुले आफ्नो आवाजको प्रताप बनाउनुहुनेछ र उहाँको बाहुलीको चाललाई हावाहुरी, आँधीबतास र असिनासँगै रिसको आँधीमा र आगोको ज्वाला देखाउनुहुनेछ ।
And Jehovah will cause his glorious voice to be heard, and will show the coming down of his arm with the indignation of his anger, and the flame of a devouring fire, with a blast and tempest and hailstones.
31 किनकि परमप्रभुको आवाजमा अश्शूरलाई चूरचूर पारिनेछ । उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई लट्ठीले चुट्नुहुनेछ ।
For through the voice of Jehovah the Assyrian shall be dismayed. With his rod he will smite him.
32 तिनीसँग लड्दा र युद्ध गर्दा परमप्रभुले तिनीहरूलाई दिनुभएको हरेक प्रहारसँग खैंजडी र वीणाहरूको सङ्गितले साथ दिइनेछ ।
And every stroke of the appointed staff, which Jehovah shall lay upon him, shall be with the sound of tambourine and harps. And he will fight with them in battles with the brandishing of his arm.
33 किनकि जल्नको निम्ति ठाउँ धेरै पहिला तयार पारिएको थियो । वास्तवमा, यो राजाको निम्ति तयार पारिन्छ र परमेश्वरले यसलाई गहिरो र फराकिलो बनाउनुभएको छ । त्यो आगो र धेरै दाउरासहित तयार छ । परमप्रभुको सासले गन्धकको नदीजस्तै यसलाई आगो सल्काउनेछ ।
For a Topheth is prepared of old, yea, it is made ready for the king. He has made it deep and large. The pile of it is fire and much wood. The breath of Jehovah kindles it, like a stream of brimstone.
