यशैया 38
1 ती दिनहरूमा हिजकिया बिरामी भएर मृत्यको मुखैमा पुगे । त्यसैले आमोजका छोरा यशैया अगमवक्ता तिनीकहाँ आए र तिनलाई भने, “परमप्रभु भन्नुहुन्छ, 'आफ्नो घरको व्यवस्थापन गर् । किनभने तँ मर्नेछस्, बाँच्नेछैनस्' ।”
In those days was Hezekiah sick and near death. Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amoz, came to him, and said to him, "Thus says the LORD, 'Set your house in order, for you will die, and not live.'"
2 तब हिजकियाले आफ्नो मुख भित्तातिर फर्काए र परमप्रभुमा प्रार्थना चढाए ।
Then Hezekiah turned his face to the wall and prayed to the LORD,
3 तिनले भने, “कृपया, हे परमप्रभु, म तपाईंको सामु कसरी सारा हृदयले विश्वासयोग्य भएर हिंडेको छु र मैले तपाईंको नजरमा जे असल छ सो कसरी गरेको छु सो सम्झनुहोस् ।” अनि हिजकिया धुरुधुरु रोए ।
and said, "Remember now, the LORD, I beg you, how I have walked before you in truth and with a perfect heart, and have done that which is good in your sight." Hezekiah wept bitterly.
4 तब यशैयाकहाँ परमप्रभुको वचन यसो भनेर आयो,
Then the word of the LORD came to Isaiah, saying,
5 “जा, मेरा मानिसहरूका अगुवा हिजकियालाई यसो भन्, 'परमप्रभु, तेरो पुर्खा दाऊदका परमेश्वर यसो भन्नुहुन्छः मैले तेरो प्रार्थना सुनेको छु, र मैले तेरो आँसु देखेको छु । हेर्, तेरो जीवनमा पन्ध्र वर्ष आयु मैले थप्न लागेको छु ।
"Go, and tell Hezekiah, 'Thus says the LORD, the God of David your father, "I have heard your prayer. I have seen your tears. Look, I will add fifteen years to your life.
6 तब म तँलाई र यस सहरलाई अश्शूरका राजाको हातबाट छुटकारा दिनेछु र म यो सहरको रक्षा गर्नेछु ।
I will deliver you and this city out of the hand of the king of Assyria, and I will defend this city.
7 मैले जे प्रतिज्ञा गरेको छु सो मैले गर्नेछु भन्ने कुराको परमप्रभुबाटको चिन्ह तँलाई यो हुनेछ ।
This shall be the sign to you from the LORD, that the LORD will do this thing that he has spoken.
8 हेर, म आहाजको सिंढीको छायालाई दश कदम पछाडि जान लगाउनेछु ।” त्यसैले सिंढीको छाया दस कदम पढाडि गयो, जुन अगि बढेको थियो ।
Look, I will cause the shadow on the steps, which has gone down with the sun on the upper steps of Ahaz, to go backward ten steps. So the sun returned ten steps on the sundial on which it had gone down."'"
9 यहूदाका राजा हिजकिया बिरामी भएर निको भएपछि तिनले लेखेको प्रार्थना यही थियो,
The writing of Hezekiah king of Judah, when he had been sick, and had recovered of his sickness.
10 “मैले भनें मेरो आधा जीवनमा नै म चिहानको ढोकाभित्र जानेछु । मेरो बाँकी वर्षहरूका निम्ति मलाई त्यहाँ पठाइन्छ । (Sheol h7585)
I said, "In the middle of my life I go into the gates of Sheol. I am deprived of the residue of my years." (Sheol h7585)
11 मैले भनें परमप्रभुलाई म देख्नेछैन, जीवितहरूको देशमा म परमप्रभुलाई कदापि देख्नेछैन । मानवजाति वा संसारको बासिन्दालाई म फेरि देख्नेछैन ।
I said, "I won't see the LORD in the land of the living. I will not look on humankind any longer with the inhabitants of the world.
12 मेरो जीवन मबाट गोठालोको पालझैं बोकेर लगिएको छ र हटाइएको छ । मेरो जीवनलाई मैले एउटा जुलाहाले जस्तो बेह्रेको छु । तपाईंले मलाई तानबाट काट्दै हुनुहुन्छ । तपाईंले मेरो जीवनलाई दिन र रातको बीचमा अन्त गर्दै हुनुहुन्छ ।
My dwelling is removed, and is carried away from me like a shepherd's tent. I have rolled up, like a weaver, my life. He will cut me off from the loom. From day even to night you will make an end of me.
13 मैले बिहानसम्म नै पुकारा गरें । उहाँले मेरा सबै हड्डीहरूलाई सिंहले झैं तोड्नुहुन्छ । तपाईंले मेरो जीवनलाई दिन रातको बीचमा अन्त गर्दै हुनुहुन्छ ।
I waited patiently until morning. He breaks all my bones like a lion. From day even to night you will make an end of me.
14 गौंथलीझैं म चिरबिर गर्छु । ढुकुरझैं कुर्लिन्छु । माथितिर हेरेर मेरा आँखा थकित भएका छन् । हे परमप्रभु, म दुःखमा परेको छु । मलाई सहायता गर्नुहोस् ।
I chip like a swallow or a thrush. I moan like a dove. My eyes weaken looking upward. LORD, I am oppressed. Be my security."
15 मैले के भन्न सक्छु र? उहाँ मसँग बोल्ने अनि त्यसलाई पुरा गर्ने दुवै गर्नुभएको छ । मेरा सबै वर्षहरूमा म बिस्तारै हिंड्नेछु किनभने म शोकले व्याकुल भएको छु ।
What will I say? He has both spoken to me, and himself has done it. I will walk carefully all my years because of the anguish of my soul.
16 हे परमप्रभु, तपाईंले पठाउनुभएका दुःखकष्ट मेरो निम्ति असल छन् । मेरो जीवन मलाई फिर्ता दिइयोस् । तपाईंले मरो जीवन र स्वस्थ्यलाई पुनर्स्थापना गर्नुभएको छ ।
The LORD is against them, but they live, and all of them who live have his spirit. Restore me to health and let me live.
17 मेरै भलाइको निम्ति मैले यस्तो शोकको अनुभव गरें । तपाईंले मलाई विनाशको खाडलबाट छुटकारा दिनुभएको छ । किनकि तपाईंले मेरा सबै पापहरूलाई आफ्नो पछाडि फाल्नुभएको छ ।
Look, for peace I had great anguish, but you have in love for my soul delivered it from the pit of corruption; for you have cast all my sins behind your back.
18 किनकि चिहानले तपाईंलाई धन्यवाद दिंदैन । मृत्युले तपाईंको प्रशंसा गर्दैन । चिहानतिर जानेहरूले तपाईंको विश्वस्तताको आशा गर्दैनन् । (Sheol h7585)
For Sheol can't praise you. And death can't celebrate you. And those who go down into the pit can't hope for your truth. (Sheol h7585)
19 जस्तो म आज गर्दैर्छु, जीवित व्यक्तिले, केवल जीवित व्यक्तिले मात्र तपाईंलाई धन्यवाद दिन्छ । पिताले तपाईंको विश्वस्तता छोराछोरीलाई भन्छन् ।
The living, the living, he shall praise you, as I do this day. The father shall make known your truth to the children.
20 परमप्रभुले मलाई बचाउन लाग्नुभएको छ र हामीले परमप्रभुको मन्दिरमा हाम्रो सारा दिनहरूभरि भजन गाउँदै उत्सव मानउनेछौं।”
The LORD will save me. Therefore we will sing my songs with stringed instruments all the days of our life in the house of the LORD.
21 यति बेला यशैयाले भनेका थिए, “अञ्जिरको लेप लिनु र त्यसलाई त्यो घाउमा लगाउनु र उहाँ निको हुनुहुनेछ ।”
Now Isaiah had said, "Let them take a cake of figs, and lay it for a poultice on the boil, and he shall recover."
22 हिजकियाले पनि भनेका थिए, “म परमप्रभुको मन्दिरमा जानुपर्छ भन्ने कुराको लागि के चिन्ह हुनेछ?”
Hezekiah also had said, "What is the sign that I will go up to the house of the LORD?"
