< यशैया 34 >
1 ए जातिहरू, नजिक आओ र सुन । ए मानिसहरू, ध्यान देओ । पृथ्वी र त्यसलाई भर्ने सबैले, संसार र त्यसबाट आएका सबै थोकले सुन्नुपर्छ ।
Come near, O nations, to listen; pay attention, O peoples. Let the earth hear, and all that fills it, the world and all that springs from it.
2 किनकि परमप्रभु सबै जातिसँग सबै जातिहरूसँग रिसाउनुभएको छ र तिनीहरूका सबै फौज विरुद्ध क्रोधित हुनुहुन्छ । उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई पुर्ण रूपमा विनाश पार्नुभएको छ, उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई संहारको निम्ति सम्पनुभएको छ ।
The LORD is angry with all the nations and furious with all their armies. He will devote them to destruction; He will give them over to slaughter.
3 तिनीहरूका मृतकहरूका लाशहरू बाहिर फालिनेछन् । लाशहरूको दुर्गन्ध जताततै हुनेछ । अनि पर्वतहरूले तिनीहरूका रगत सोस्नेछ ।
Their slain will be left unburied, and the stench of their corpses will rise; the mountains will flow with their blood.
4 आकाशका सबै ताराहरू विलीन हुनेछन् र आकाशचाहिं एउटा चर्मपत्रको मुट्ठाझैं बेह्रिनेछ । अनि दाखको पात झरेर ओइलाएझैं र अञ्जिरका गलेका अञ्जिर खसेझैं तिनीहरूका सबै ताराहरू विलीन हुनेछन् ।
All the stars of heaven will be dissolved. The skies will be rolled up like a scroll, and all their stars will fall like withered leaves from the vine, like foliage from the fig tree.
5 किनकि जब मेरो तरवारले स्वर्गमा अघाउञ्जेल पिउनेछ । हेर, मैले विनाशको निम्ति अलग गरिरहेका मानिसहरू एदोममाथि त्यो आउनेछ ।
When My sword has drunk its fill in the heavens, then it will come down upon Edom, upon the people I have devoted to destruction.
6 परमप्रभुको तरवारबाट रगत चुहिरहेको छ र बोसोले ढाकेको छ, थुमाहरू र बोकाहरूका रगत चुहिरहेको छ, भेडाहरूका मृगौलाको बोसोले ढाकिएको छ । किनकि बोज्रामा परमप्रभुको बलिदान छ र एदोममा ठुलो संहार छ ।
The sword of the LORD is bathed in blood. It drips with fat— with the blood of lambs and goats, with the fat of the kidneys of rams. For the LORD has a sacrifice in Bozrah, a great slaughter in the land of Edom.
7 तिनीहरूसँगै जङ्गली साँढेहरू, अनि वृद्ध साँढेहरूसँगै जवानहरू ढल्नेछन् । तिनीहरूका देश रगतले मात्नेछ र तिनीहरूका माटो बोसोले मोटाउनेछ ।
And the wild oxen will fall with them, the young bulls with the strong ones. Their land will be drenched with blood, and their soil will be soaked with fat.
8 किनकि परमप्रभुको निम्ति यो बदलाको दिन हुनेछ र उहाँले सियोनको निम्ति तिनीहरूसँग साटो फेर्ने एउटा वर्ष हुनेछ ।
For the LORD has a day of vengeance, a year of recompense for the cause of Zion.
9 एदोमका नदीहरू अकत्रामा, त्यसको माटो गन्धकमा परिणत हुनेछ र त्यसको देश जलिरहने अलकत्रा हुनेछ ।
Edom’s streams will be turned to tar, and her soil to sulfur; her land will become a blazing pitch.
10 त्यो रातदिन जल्नेछ । त्यसको धुवाँ सदासर्वदा माथि उठिरहनेछ । पुस्तादेखि पुस्तासम्म यो उजाड भूमी हुनेछ । सदासर्वदा यसबाट कोही पनि हिंड्नेछैन ।
It will not be quenched—day or night. Its smoke will ascend forever. From generation to generation it will lie desolate; no one will ever again pass through it.
11 तर जङ्गली चराहरू र जनावरहरू त्यहाँ बस्नेछन् । लाटोकोसेरो र कागले त्यसमा आफ्ना गुँड बनाउनेछन् । उहाँलले त्यसमाथि नाशको नाप्ने डोरी र विनाशको सहुल लगाउनुहुनेछ ।
The desert owl and screech owl will possess it, and the great owl and raven will dwell in it. The LORD will stretch out over Edom a measuring line of chaos and a plumb line of destruction.
12 राज्य भन्नलाई त्यसका भारदारसँग कुनै कुरा रहनछैन, र त्यसका सबै शासकहरू छन् भन्ने नै हुनेछन् ।
No nobles will be left to proclaim a king, and all her princes will come to nothing.
13 त्यसको दरबारमा काँढाहरू, अनि त्यसको किल्लाहरूमा सिस्नो र सिउँडीहरू उम्रिनेछन् । त्यो स्यालको बास र सुतुर्मुर्गको ठाउँ हुनेछ ।
Her towers will be overgrown with thorns, her fortresses with thistles and briers. She will become a haunt for jackals, an abode for ostriches.
14 त्यहाँ जङ्गली जनावरहरू र हुँडारहरू भेट्नेछन् अनि घोरलहरू एकआपसमा कराउनेछन् । रातका जनावरहरू त्यहाँ बस्नेछन् र तिनीहरूको निम्ति विश्रामको ठाउँ हुनेछ ।
The desert creatures will meet with hyenas, and one wild goat will call to another. There the night creature will settle and find her place of repose.
15 लाटोकोसेराहरूले गुँड बनाउनेछन्, अण्डा पार्नेछन् कोरल्नेछन् र तिनीहरूका बचेराहरूको संरक्षण गर्नेछन् । हो, त्यहाँ आ-आफ्ना जोडीसँग बाजहरू भेला हुनेछन् ।
There the owl will make her nest; she will lay and hatch her eggs and gather her brood under her shadow. Even there the birds of prey will gather, each with its mate.
16 परमप्रभुको चर्मपत्रको मुट्ठोभरि खोज । यिमध्ये एउटै पनि हराउनेछैन । कसैलाई पनि जोडीको कमी हुनेछैन । किनकि उहाँको मुखले यस्तो आज्ञा दिनुभएको छ र उहाँको आत्माले तिनीहरूलाई भेला गर्नुभएको छ ।
Search and read the scroll of the LORD: Not one of these will go missing, not one will lack her mate, because He has ordered it by His mouth, and He will gather them by His Spirit.
17 उहाँले नै तिनीहरूका ठाउँहरूका निम्ति चिट्ठा हाल्नुभएको छ र उहाँकै हातले तिनीहरूको निम्ति डोरीले नाप लिनुभएको छ । तिनीहरूले सदासर्वदा त्यसको अधिकार गर्नेछन् । पुस्तादेखि पुस्तासम्म तिनीहरू त्यहाँ बस्नेछन् ।
He has allotted their portion; His hand has distributed it by measure. They will possess it forever; they will dwell in it from generation to generation.
