< यशैया 32 >

1 हेर, एक जना राजाले धर्मिकतामा राज्‍य गर्नेछन् र शासकहरूले न्यायमा राज्‍य गर्नेछन् ।
For, behold, a righteous king shall reign, and princes shall govern with judgement.
2 प्रत्‍येक व्‍यक्‍ति हावाबाट बच्‍ने ठाउँजस्तै, र आँधीबाट शरण लिने ठाउँजस्तै, सुख्‍खा ठाउँको पानीको धारहरूजस्तै, थकानको देशमा भएको ठुलो चट्टानको छायाजस्तै हुनेछ ।
And a man shall hide his words, and be hidden, as from rushing water, and shall appear in Sion as a rushing river, glorious in a thirsty land.
3 तब हेर्नेहरूका आँखा धमिलो हुनेछैनन् र सुन्‍नेहरूका कानले ध्यानपुर्वक सुन्‍नेछन् ।
And they shall no more trust in men, but they shall incline their ears to hear.
4 हडबडेले समझदार भएर होसियारसाथ विचार गर्नेछ, अनि भकभकेले प्रष्‍टसँग र सजिलोसँग बोल्‍नेछ ।
And the heart of the weak ones shall attend to hear, and the stammering tongues shall soon learn to speak peace.
5 मूर्खलाई कदापि आदरणीय भनिनेछैन न छलीलाई चरित्रवान भनिनेछ ।
And they shall no more at all tell a fool to rule, and your servants shall no more at all say, Be silent.
6 किनकि मूर्खले मूर्खताको कुरा गर्छ, उसको मनले दुष्‍ट र अधर्मी कामहरूका योजना बनाउछ र उसले परमप्रभुको विरुद्धमा गलत किसिमले बोल्छ । उसले भोकाएकोलाई रित्तो बनाउँछ र तिर्खाएकोलाई पानीको कमी तुल्याउँछ ।
For the fool shall speak foolish words, and his heart shall meditate vanities, and to perform lawless deeds and to speak error against the Lord, to scatter hungry souls, and he will cause the thirsty souls to be empty.
7 छलीका विधिहरू खराब हुन्‍छन् । गरीबले ठिक कुरा भने पनि उसले गरीबलाई विनाश पार्ने दुष्‍ट योजनाहरू बनाउँछ ।
For the counsel of the wicked will devise iniquity, to destroy the poor with unjust words, and ruin the cause of the poor in judgement.
8 तर आदरणीय मानिसले आदरणीय योजना बनाउँछ । अनि उसको आदरणीय कामहरूको कारणले नै ऊ खडा रहन्‍छ ।
But the godly have devised wise [measures], and this counsel shall stand.
9 ए चैनमा बसेका स्‍त्रीहरू, खडा होओ र मेरो सोरलाई सुन । ए चिन्‍ता नभएका छोरीहरू, मेरो कुरा सुन ।
Rise up, you rich women, and hear my voice; you confident daughters, listen to my words.
10 किनकि ए चिन्‍ता नभएका स्‍त्रीहरू, एक वर्षभन्दा केही बढी समयमा तिमीहरूको दृढतालाई तोडिनेछ, किनकि दाखको कटनी बितेर जानेछ, फसल जम्‍मा गर्ने समय आउनेछैन ।
Remember for a full year in pain, yet with hope: the vintage has been cut off; it has ceased, it shall by no means come again.
11 ए चैनमा बस्‍ने स्‍त्रीहरू, थरथर होओ । ए निर्धक्‍क हुनेहरू, घबराओ । आफ्ना राम्रा पोशाकहरू फुकाल र आफैलाई नाङ्गो पार । आफ्‍ना कम्मरको वरिपरि भाङ्ग्रा लगाओ ।
Be amazed, be pained, you confident ones: strip you, bare yourselves, gird your loins;
12 राम्रा खेतहरूका निम्ति र फलदायी दाखहरूका निम्ति तिमीहरूले विलाप गर्नेछौ ।
and beat your breasts, because of the pleasant field, and the fruit of the vine.
13 मेरा मानिसहरूका जमिनमा, कुनै बेलाका आनन्‍द गर्ने सहरका घरहरूमा समेत काँढाहरू र सिउँडीहरू उम्रिनेछन् ।
[As for] the land of my people, the thorn and grass shall come upon [it], and joy shall be removed from every house.
14 किनकि दरबारहरू त्यागिनेछन्, भीडको सहरलाई उजाड बनाइनेछ । पहाड र धरहरा सदाको निम्ति गुफाहरू, वन-गधाहरूका खुसी, गाइवस्तुका चरन हुनेछ ।
[As for] the rich city, the houses are deserted; they shall abandon the wealth of the city, [and] the pleasant houses: and the villages shall be caves for ever, the joy of wild asses, shepherds' pastures;
15 माथिबाट हामीमा आत्मा नखन्यासम्म र उजाड-स्‍थान एउटा फलदायी खेत नभएसम्म र फलदायी खेतलाई एउटा जङ्गझैं नसोचेसम्‍म ।
until the Spirit shall come upon you from on high, and Chermel shall be desert, and Chermel shall be counted for a forest.
16 तब न्यान उजाड-स्‍थान बास गर्नेछ । अनि धार्मिकताचाहिं फलदायी खेतमा बास गर्नेछ ।
Then judgement shall abide in the wilderness, and righteousness shall dwell in Carmel.
17 धार्मिकताको कामचाहिं शान्ति हुनेछ । अनि धार्मिकताको परिणामचाहिं सदासर्वदा शान्ति र दृढता हुनेछ ।
And the works of righteousness shall be peace; and righteousness shall ensure rest, and [the righteous] shall be confident for ever.
18 मेरा मानिसहरू शान्तिपुर्ण बासस्थानमा, सुरक्षित घरहरूमा र शान्तसित विश्राम गर्ने ठाउँहरूमा बास गर्नेछन् ।
And his people shall inhabit a city of peace, and dwell in [it] in confidence, and they shall rest with wealth.
19 तर असिना परे पनि र जङ्गल नाश भए पनि र सहरलाई पुर्ण रूपमा निर्मूल पारिए पनि,
And if the hail should come down, it shall not come upon you; and they that dwell in the forests shall be in confidence, as those in the plain country.
20 तिमीहरू जसले नदीहरूका किनारहरूमा बीउ छरेका छौ, तिमीहरूका जसले आफ्‍ना गोरु र गधालाई चर्न पठाएका छौ, आशिषित्‌ हुनेछौ ।
Blessed are they that sow by every water, where the ox and ass tread.
