< यशैया 52 >
1 ए सियोन, जाग्, जाग्, आफ्नो शक्ति धारण गर् । ए यरूशलेम, पवित्र सहर, आफ्नो सुन्दर पोशाक लगा । किनकि खतना नगरिएका वा अशुद्धचाहिं फेरि कहिल्यै तँभित्र पस्नेछैन ।
Awake, awake, put on your strength, Zion; put on your beautiful garments, Jerusalem, the holy city, for there shall no more enter into you the uncircumcised and the unclean.
2 आफैबाट धूलो टक्टक्या । ए यरूशलेम उठ् र बस् । ए सियोनकी कैदी छोरी, आफ्नो घाँटीबाट साङ्ला निकाल् ।
Shake yourself from the dust. Arise, sit up, Jerusalem. Release yourself from the bonds of your neck, captive daughter of Zion.
3 किनकि परमप्रभु यसो भन्नुहुन्छ, “तिमीहरू सित्तैंमा बेचिएका थियौ, अनि पैसाविना नै तिमीहरूको छुटकारा हुनेछ ।”
For thus says the LORD, "You were sold for nothing; and you shall be redeemed without money."
4 किनकि परमप्रभु परमेश्वर यसो भन्नुहुन्छ, “सुरुमा मेरा मानिसहरू अस्थायी रूपमा बसोवास गर्न मिश्रदेशमा गए । अनि अश्शूरले तिनीहरूलाई कुनै ठिक कारणविना नै अत्याचार गर्यो ।
For thus says the LORD, "My people went down at the first into Egypt to live there, and the Assyrian oppressed them without cause.
5 यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो, मेरा मानिसहरू सित्तैंमा लगिएको देख्दा, अब मसँग यहाँ के छ र? यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो, तिनीहरूमाथि शासन गर्नेहरूले तिनीहरूलाई खिसी गर्छन् र दिनभरि मेरो नाउँको निरन्तर निन्दा हुन्छ ।
"Now therefore, what do I do here," says the LORD, "seeing that my people are taken away for nothing? Those who rule over them mock," says the LORD. "Because of you, my name is continually all the day blasphemed among the nations.
6 यसकारण मेरा मानिसहरूले मेरो नाउँ जान्नेछन् । “हो, त्यो म नै हुँ” भन्ने म नै हुँ भनी तिनीहरूले त्यस दिन जान्नेछन् ।
Therefore my people shall know my name; in that day they will know that I am he who speaks; look, it is I."
7 असल समाचार ल्याउने दूतहरूका गोडाहरू पहडाहरूमाथि कति सुन्दर, जसले शन्तिको घोषणा गर्छन्, जसले असल समाचार ल्याउँछन्, जसले उद्धारको घोषणा गर्छन्, जसले सियोनलाई भन्छन्, “तेरो परमेश्वरले राज्य गर्नुहुन्छ!” ।
How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of him who brings good news, who publishes peace, who brings good news of good things, who publishes salvation, who says to Zion, "Your God reigns."
8 सुन्, तिमीहरूका रक्षकहरूले आफ्ना सोर उच्च पार्छन्, तिनीहरू आनन्दले कराउँछन्, किनकि आफ्ना हरेक आँखाले तिनीहरूले परमप्रभु सयोनमा फर्कनुभएको देख्नेछन् ।
The voice of your watchmen. They lift up the voice, together do they sing; for they shall see eye to eye, when the LORD returns to Zion with compassion.
9 ए यरूशलेमको भग्नावशेषहरू, आनन्दको गीत सँगसँगै गाओ । किनकि परमप्रभुले आफ्ना मानिसहरूलाई सान्त्वना दिनुभएको छ । उहाँले यरूशलेमको उद्धार गर्नुभएको छ ।
Break forth into joy, sing together, you waste places of Jerusalem; for the LORD has comforted his people, he has redeemed Jerusalem.
10 परमप्रभुले आफ्नो पवित्र बाहुली सबै जातिहरूको दृष्टिमा प्रकट गर्नुभएको छ । सारा पृथ्वीले हाम्रा परमेश्वरको उद्धार देख्नेछ ।
The LORD has made bare his holy arm in the eyes of all the nations; and every part of the earth has seen the salvation of our God.
11 छोड, छोड, त्यहाँबाट बाहिर जाओ । अशुद्ध कुनै कुरा नछोओ । त्यसको माझबाट जाओ । आफैलाई शुद्ध बनाओ, तिमीहरू जसले परमप्रभुको पात्रलाई बोक्छौ ।
Depart, depart, go out from there, and touch no unclean thing. Go out from their midst, and be separate, you who bear the vessels of the LORD.
12 किनकि तिमीहरू हतारमा बाहिर जानेछैनौ, न तिमीहरूले त्रासमा छोड्नेछौ । किनकि परमप्रभु तिमीहरूको अगि-अगि जानुहुनेछ । अनि इस्राएलको परमेश्वर नै तिमीहरू पछाडिको रक्षक हुनुहुनेछ ।
For you shall not depart in haste, nor shall you leave in flight; for the LORD will go before you, and the God of Israel will be your rear guard.
13 हेर, मेरो सेवकले बुद्धिमान् भएर काम गर्नेछ । ऊ उच्च हुनेछ र माथि उचालिनेछ र उसलाई उचालिनेछ ।
Look, my servant shall deal wisely, he shall be exalted and lifted up, and shall be very high.
14 जसरी तँसँग धेरै जना त्रसित भएका थिए— उसको अनुहार कुनै मानिसको भन्दा धेरै कुरूप बनाइएको थियो, र उसको स्वरूप कुनै मानिसको जस्तो देखिएन ।
Just as many were astonished at you (his appearance was marred more than any man, and his form more than the sons of men),
15 तापनि मेरो सेवकले धेरै जातिहरूलाई छर्कनेछ र उसको कारणले राजाहरूले आफ्ना मुख बन्द गर्नेछन् । किनकि तिनीहरूलाई नभनिएको कुरा तिनीहरूले देख्नेछन् र तिनीहरू नसुनेका कुरा तिनीहरूले बुझ्नेछन् ।
so shall he sprinkle many nations; kings shall shut their mouths at him. For that which was not told about him, they will see, and what they have not heard, they will understand.
