< यशैया 4 >
1 त्यस दिन सात जना स्त्रीले एक जना पुरुषलाई समात्नेछन् र भन्नेछन्, “हाम्रो आफ्नै खाना हामी खानेछौं, हाम्रो आफ्नै लुगा हामी लगाउनेछौं । तर हाम्रो लाज हटाउनलाई हामीलाई तपाईंको नाउँ लिन दिनुहोस् ।”
And seven women shall take hold of one man, saying, We will eat our own bread, and wear our own raiment: only let thy name be called upon us, [and] take away our reproach.
2 त्यस दिन परमप्रभुको हाँगा सुन्दर र महिमित हुनेछ, अनि इस्राएलमा बाँकी रहेकाहरूका निम्ति, देशको फल स्वादिलो र अनन्ददायी हुनेछ ।
And in that day God shall shine gloriously in counsel on the earth, to exalt and glorify the remnant of Israel.
3 सियोनमा बाँकी छोडिएकाहरू, र यरूशलेममा रहनेहरू पवित्र भनिनेछन्, हरेक जो यरूशलेममा बसिरहेको भनेर लिखिएको छ ।
And it shall be, [that] the remnant left in Sion, and the remnant left in Jerusalem, [even] all that are appointed to life in Jerusalem, shall be called holy.
4 जब परमप्रभुले सियोनकी छोरीहरूको मैला धुनुहुनेछ, र फैसलाको आत्मा र आगोको ज्वालाको आत्माले, यरूशलेमको माझबाट रगतका दाखहरू शुद्ध पार्नुहुनेछ, तब यसो हुनेछ ।
For the Lord shall wash away the filth of the sons and daughters of Sion, and shall purge out the blood from the midst of them, with the spirit of judgment, and the spirit of burning.
5 सम्पूर्ण सियोन पर्वतमाथि र त्यसको सभाको स्थानमाथि, परमप्रभुले दिनमा बादल, धूँवा, र रातमा बलिरहेको आगोको चम्कने ज्वाला सृजना गर्नुहुनेछ । यो नै सबै महिमामाथिको ढाक्ने कुरा हुनेछ ।
And he shall come, and it shall be with regard to every place of mount Sion, yea, all the region round about it shall a cloud overshadow by day, and [there shall be] as it were the smoke and light of fire burning by night: and upon all the glory shall be a defence.
6 दिनको तापबाट बच्नलाई यो नै सितल छहारी, र हुरी र झरीबाट बच्नलाई निम्ति शरण र छत्र हुनेछ ।
And it shall be for a shadow from the heat, and as a shelter and a hiding place from inclemency [of weather] and from rain.
