< 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 children, saith the Lord, that take counsel, but not from me; and that set themselves a ruler, but not by my spirit, in order 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 ।
That travel to go down into Egypt, and have not asked my will; to strengthen themselves through the strength of Pharaoh, and to seek shelter in the shadow of Egypt!
3 यसकारण फारोको सुरक्षा तिमीहरूको शर्म हुनेछ र मिश्रदेशको छायाको शरण तिमीहरूको अपमान हुनेछ,
Therefore shall the strength of Pharaoh become your shame, and the shelter in the shadow of Egypt your disgrace.
4 यद्यपि तिनीहरूका शासकहरू सोअनमा र तिनीहरूका दूतहरू हानेसमा आएका छन् ।
For his princes were at Zo'an, and his ambassadors had reached Chanes.
5 आफूलाई सहायता गर्न नसक्‍ने मानिसहरूको कारणले तिनीहरू लज्‍जित हुनेछन्, जो न सहायता न मदत हुन्, तर शर्म र अपमान हुन्छन् ।”
They all are ashamed because of a people that cannot profit them, neither be a help nor give profit; but [bringeth] 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 doom of the beasts of the south: Through the land of trouble and anguish, whence come the lioness and the lion, the viper and flying dragons, they will carry upon the shoulders of young asses their riches, and upon the humps of camels their treasures, to a people that cannot profit.
7 किनकि मिश्रदेशको सहायता व्यार्थ हुन्छ । यसकारण मैले त्यसलाई राहाब भने, जो चुपचाप बस्छ ।
And the Egyptians will help in vain, and to no purpose; therefore have I called this, Boasters they are in sitting 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 table, and note it in a book, that it may be for the latest time to come, for ever, and to eternity:
9 किनकि यी विद्रोही मानिसहरू, झुट बोल्ने छोराछोरी, परमप्रभुको शिक्षा नसुन्‍ने छोराछोरी हुन् ।
For this is a rebellious people, lying children, children that will not hear the law of the Lord:
10 तिनीहरूले दर्शीहरूलाई भन्छन्, “नहेर्नुहोस्,” र अगमवक्ताहरूलाई भन्छन्, “हामीलाई सत्य अगमवाणी नगर्नुहोस् । हाम्रा निम्‍ति चापलुसी कुरा गर्नुहोस्, भ्रम अगमवाणी गर्नुहोस् ।
Who have said to the seers, Ye shall not see; and to the prophets, Reveal not unto us true things, speak unto us smooth things, reveal deceits;
11 मार्गबाट तर्की जानुहोस्, बाटोबाट हट्नुहोस् । इस्राएलका परमपवित्रलाई हाम्रो सामु नबोल्ने पार्नुहोस् ।”
Depart you out of the way, turn aside out of the path, remove from before us the Holy One of Israel.
12 यसकारण इस्राएलका परमपवित्र भन्‍नुहुन्छ, “तिमीहरूले यो वचन इन्कार गरेको र अत्यचार र छलमा भरोसा गरेको अनि त्‍यसमा अडेको छौ,
Therefore thus hath said the Holy One of Israel, Because ye despise this word, and trust in oppression and perverseness, and lean thereon for aid:
13 त्यसैले यो पाप खस्‍नलाई तयार भएको टुटेको थोकजस्तै, तुरुन्तै अचानक रूपमा खस्‍न लागेको अग्‍लो पर्खालको निस्केको भागजस्तै हुनेछ ।”
Therefore shall this iniquity be to you as a threatening breach, swelling out in a high-towering wall, the fall of which will come unawares, suddenly.
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 will break it, as one breaketh a potter's vessel, dashing it in pieces without sparing it; so that there cannot be found among its fragments a sherd to rake fire from a hearth and to draw water from a pit.
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 hath said the Lord Eternal, the Holy One of Israel, In repose and rest shall ye be helped; in quietness and in confidence shall be your strength; 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 ।
And ye said, “No; for upon horses will we flee;” therefore shall ye flee: and, “Upon swift beasts will we ride;” therefore shall your pursuers 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 threatening of one; at the threatening of five shall ye [all] flee: till ye be left as a pole upon a mountain-top, 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 will the Lord wait, to be gracious unto you, and therefore will he exalt himself, to have mercy upon you; for a God of justice is the Lord: happy are all those that 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 O people of Zion that shall dwell at Jerusalem! thou shalt indeed not weep: he will be surely gracious unto thee at the voice of thy cry; so soon as he heareth it, he answereth 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 the Lord will give you bread [in] adversity, and water [in] oppression; and thy teachers shall not have to hide themselves in a corner any more, but thy 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 thy ears shall hear the 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 will regard as unclean the covering of thy graven idols of silver, and the ornament of thy molten images of gold: thou wilt cast them away as a filthy thing; “Get thee hence,” wilt thou say unto them.
23 तिमीहरूले जमिनमा बीउ छर्दा उहाँले तिमीहरूलाई वर्षा र जमिनबाट प्रशस्‍त रोटी दिनुहुनेछ, र अन्‍नहरू प्रशस्‍त हुनेछन् । त्यो दिनमा तिमीहरूका गाइवस्तु फराकिलो खर्कमा चर्नेछन् ।
Then will he give the rain for thy seed, that thou mayest sow in the ground; and bread—the produce of the ground—this shall be fat and nutritious: thy cattle shall feed on that day in extensive pastures.
24 जमिन जोत्‍ने गोरुहरू र गधाहरूले बेल्चा र नाङलोले निफनिएका दाना खानेछन् ।
The oxen likewise and the young asses that till the ground shall eat salted provender, which hath been winnowed with the shovel and with the fan.
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 high mountain, and upon every prominent hill, rivulets, streams of waters on the day of the great slaughter, when 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 ।
And 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 the seven days, on the day that the Lord bindeth up the broken [limbs] of his people, and healeth the bruise 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 the Lord cometh from afar, burning is his anger, and heavy the smoke; his lips are full of indignation, and his tongue is like 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, like an overflowing stream, shall reach to the midst of the neck, to toss the nations with the van of falsehood: and [to place] a deceiving bridle on the jaws of the people.
29 तिमीहरूले पवित्र चाड मनाउदा झैं रातमा पनि गीत गाउनेछौ र परमप्रभुको पर्वतमा अर्थात् इस्राएलको चट्टानकहाँ बाँसुरी बजाउँदै जाँदाको जस्तै मन खुसी हुनेछ ।
[Then] shall ye have a song, as in the night when a festival is ushered in, and joy of heart, as when one goeth with the flute to come unto the mountain of the Lord, 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 the Lord will cause his majestic voice to be heard, and will show the stretching down of his arm, in the indignation of [his] anger, and in the flame of a devouring fire, in flood, and tempest, and stones of hail.
31 किनकि परमप्रभुको आवाजमा अश्शूरलाई चूरचूर पारिनेछ । उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई लट्ठीले चुट्नुहुनेछ ।
For because of the voice of the Lord shall be terrified Asshur, that smote [you] with the rod.
32 तिनीसँग लड्दा र युद्ध गर्दा परमप्रभुले तिनीहरूलाई दिनुभएको हरेक प्रहारसँग खैंजडी र वीणाहरूको सङ्गितले साथ दिइनेछ ।
And at every passage of the appointed staff which the Lord will let fall on him, there shall be [music] on tambourine and harp; and in the tumult of battles will he fight with them.
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 already of old is Topheth made ready; also this is prepared for the king—deep and wide; its pile hath fire and wood in plenty, the breath of the Lord, like a stream of sulfur, will kindle it into a flame.
