< 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, ye nations, to hear; and ye people, hearken: let the earth hear, and all that filleth it; the world, and all things that spring forth of 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 ।
For the indignation of the Lord is [enkindled] over all the nations, and his fury over all their army: he hath devoted them, he hath given them up to the slaughter:
3 तिनीहरूका मृतकहरूका लाशहरू बाहिर फालिनेछन् । लाशहरूको दुर्गन्ध जताततै हुनेछ । अनि पर्वतहरूले तिनीहरूका रगत सोस्‍नेछ ।
And their slain also shall be cast out, and as regardeth their carcasses their stench shall ascend upward, and the mountains shall be melted through 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 ।
And all the host of heaven shall be dissolved, and the heavens shall be rolled together like a book: and all their host shall wither, as the leaf withereth from the vine, and as withering fruit from the fig-tree.
5 किनकि जब मेरो तरवारले स्वर्गमा अघाउञ्‍जेल पिउनेछ । हेर, मैले विनाशको निम्ति अलग गरिरहेका मानिसहरू एदोममाथि त्‍यो आउनेछ ।
For my sword is sated in heaven: behold, it shall come down upon Edom, and upon the people I have devoted to punishment.
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 full of blood, it is enriched with fat, with the blood of lambs and goats, with the fat of the kidneys of rams; for the Lord hath a sacrifice in Bozrah, and 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 wild oxen shall sink down with them, and steers with bullocks; and their land shall be sated with blood, and their dust enriched with fat.
8 किनकि परमप्रभुको निम्ति यो बदलाको दिन हुनेछ र उहाँले सियोनको निम्ति तिनीहरूसँग साटो फेर्ने एउटा वर्ष हुनेछ ।
For it is the day of vengeance unto the Lord, and the year of recompense for the controversy of Zion.
9 एदोमका नदीहरू अकत्रामा, त्यसको माटो गन्धकमा परिणत हुनेछ र त्यसको देश जलिरहने अलकत्रा हुनेछ ।
And its brooks shall be changed into pitch, and its dust into sulfur, and its land shall become burning pitch.
10 त्‍यो रातदिन जल्‍नेछ । त्‍यसको धुवाँ सदासर्वदा माथि उठिरहनेछ । पुस्तादेखि पुस्‍तासम्म यो उजाड भूमी हुनेछ । सदासर्वदा यसबाट कोही पनि हिंड्‍नेछैन ।
Night and day shall it not be quenched; for ever shall ascend the smoke thereof: from generation to generation shall it lie waste; no one shall for ever and ever 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 ।
But pelican and hedgehog shall take possession of it; night-owl also and raven shall dwell in it: and he shall stretch out over it the line of destruction, and the weights of desolation.
12 राज्य भन्‍नलाई त्यसका भारदारसँग कुनै कुरा रहनछैन, र त्यसका सबै शासकहरू छन् भन्‍ने नै हुनेछन् ।
Their nobles—no one is there they could call [to] the kingdom, and all its princes shall be no more.
13 त्यसको दरबारमा काँढाहरू, अनि त्यसको किल्लाहरूमा सिस्‍नो र सिउँडीहरू उम्रिनेछन् । त्‍यो स्यालको बास र सुतुर्मुर्गको ठाउँ हुनेछ ।
And thorns shall spring up in its palaces, nettles and brambles in its fortresses: and it shall be a habitation of monsters, and a court for ostriches.
14 त्यहाँ जङ्गली जनावरहरू र हुँडारहरू भेट्नेछन् अनि घोरलहरू एकआपसमा कराउनेछन् । रातका जनावरहरू त्यहाँ बस्‍नेछन् र तिनीहरूको निम्ति विश्रामको ठाउँ हुनेछ ।
And the martens shall meet with the jackals, and one goat shall call to his fellow; only the screech-owl shall rest there, and find for herself a place of repose.
15 लाटोकोसेराहरूले गुँड बनाउनेछन्, अण्डा पार्नेछन्‌ कोरल्नेछन् र तिनीहरूका बचेराहरूको संरक्षण गर्नेछन् । हो, त्यहाँ आ-आफ्ना जोडीसँग बाजहरू भेला हुनेछन् ।
There shall nestle the arrow-snake, and lay eggs, and hatch, and gather its young under its shadow: only vultures shall assemble there, every one with her 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 ।
Inquire out of the book of the Lord, and read: not one of these shall be absent, not one shall miss her mate; for my mouth it is that hath ordained it, and its breath it is that hath gathered them.
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 ।
And he hath cast the lot for them, and his hand hath divided it out unto them by the measuring line: for ever shall they possess it, from generation to generation shall they dwell therein.
