यशैया 57
1 धर्मी नष्ट हुन्छ तर यो कुरा कसैले विचार गर्दैन, र करारको विश्वस्ततका मानसहरूलाई टाढा भेला पारिन्छ, दुष्टबाट धर्मीलाई टाढा लगिन्छन्, तर कसैले बुझ्दैन ।
The righteous man perishes, and no man lays it to heart. And merciful men are taken away; none considering that the righteous man is taken away from the evil.
2 ऊ शन्तिमा प्रवेश गर्छ । जो आफ्नो सोझोपनमा हिंड्छन् तिनीहरू आफ्ना ओछ्यानहरूमा आराम गर्छन् ।
He enters into peace. They rest in their beds, each one who walks in his uprightness.
3 तर तिमीहरू झँक्रेनीना छोराहरू, व्यभिचारी र आफूलाई वेश्या बनाउने स्त्रीको सन्तानहरू, यहाँ आओ ।
But draw near here, ye sons of the sorceress, the seed of the adulterer and the harlot.
4 तिमीहरू खुसी हुँदै कसलाई गिल्ला गर्दैछौ? कसको विरुद्धमा तिमीहरूले मुख खोल्दैछौ र जिब्रो निकाल्दैछौ? के तिमीहरू विद्रोह र छलका छोराछोरी होइनौ र?
Against whom do ye sport yourselves, against whom ye make a wide mouth, and put out the tongue? Are ye not children of transgression, a seed of falsehood,
5 तिमीहरूले फलाँटका रूखहरूमुनि र हरेक हरियो रूखमुनि सँगै सुतेर आफैलाई यौनको उत्तेजनामा पार्छौ, तिमीहरू जसले आफ्ना छोराछोरीलाई सुख्खा नदीहरूमा, चट्टानका धाँदामुनि बलि गर्छौ ।
ye who inflame yourselves among the oaks, under every green tree, who kill the children in the valleys, under the clefts of the rocks?
6 नदीको बेसीका चिल्ला थोकहरूमा तिमीहरूलाई दिइएका थोकहरू पनि पर्छन् । ती तिमीहरूले पुजा गर्ने वस्तुहरू हुन् । तिमीहरूले आफ्ना अर्घबलिहरू तिनीहरूमाथि खन्याउँछौ र अन्नबलिहरू चढाउँछौ । के यी कुराहरूमा म खुसी हुनू?
Among the smooth stones of the valley is thy portion. They, they are thy lot, even to them thou have poured a drink offering; thou have offered an oblation. Shall I be appeased for these things?
7 तिमीहरूले आफ्ना ओछ्यान उच्च पहाडमाथि बनाउँछौ । तिमीहरू बलिदानहरू चढाउन पनि त्यसमाथि गयौ ।
Upon a high and lofty mountain thou have set thy bed. Thou also went up there to offer sacrifice.
8 ढोका र चौकोसहरूका पछाडि तिमीहरूले चिन्हहरू खडा गर्यौ । तिमीहरूले मलाई त्याग्यौ, र आफैलाई नाङ्गो बनायौ र माथि गयौ । तिमीहरूले आफ्ना ओछ्यान फराकिलो बनायौ । तिमीहरूले तिनीहरूसित करार बाँध्यौ । तिमीहरूले तिनीहरूका ओछ्यानहरूलाई प्रेम गर्यौ । तिमीहरूले तिनीहरूका गुप्ताङ्गहरू देख्यौ ।
And behind the doors and the posts thou have set up thy memorial. For thou have uncovered thyself to another than me, and have gone up. Thou have enlarged thy bed, and made thee a covenant with them. Thou loved their bed where thou saw it.
9 तिमीहरू मोलेककहाँ तेल लिएर गयौ । तिमीहरूले सुगन्धित तेल बढायौ । तिमीहरूले आफ्ना राजदूतहरूलाई टाढा पठायौ । तिमीहरू तल चिहान गयौ । (Sheol h7585)
And thou went to the king with oil, and increased thy perfumes, and sent thine ambassadors far off, and debased thyself even to Sheol. (Sheol h7585)
10 तिमीहरू आफ्नो लामो यात्रबाट थकित भयौ, तर तिमीहरूले कहिल्यै भनेनौ, “यो आशाहीन छ ।” तिमीहरूले आफ्नो हातमा नै जीवन पायौ । यसकारण तिमीहरू कमजोर भएनौ ।
Thou were wearied with the length of thy way, yet thou did not say, It is in vain. Thou found a quickening of thy strength, therefore thou were not faint.
11 “तिमीहरू कसको विषयमा चिन्तित हुन्छौ? तिमीहरूले कसको भय यति धेरै मान्छौ, जसले तिमीहरूलाई यति धेरै धोकापुर्ण रूपमा काम गर्ने बनाएको छ, यति धेरै कि तिमीहरूले मेरो याद गर्दैनौ न त मेरो बारेमा विचार नै गर्छौ? म यति लामो समयसम्म मौन भएको हुनाले, मसँग तिमीहरू फेरि डराउँदैनौ ।
And of whom have thou been afraid and in fear, that thou lie, and have not remembered me, nor laid it to thy heart? Have I not held my peace even of long time, and thou do not fear me?
12 तिमीहरूका सबै धर्मिक कामहरू घोषणा म गर्ने र तिमीहरूले गरेका सबै कुरा भन्नेछु, तर तिनीहरूले तिमीहरूलाई सहायता गर्नेछैनन् ।
I will declare thy righteousness. And as for thy works, they shall not profit thee.
13 तिमीहरूले पुकारा गर्दा तिमीहरूले जम्मा गरेका मूर्तीहरूले नै तिमीहरूलाई बचाऊन् । बरु, हावाले तिनीहरू सबैलाई उडाएर लानेछ, सासले नै तिनीहरू सबैलाई उडाएर लानेछ । तापनि ममा शरण लिनेले देश अधिकार गर्नेछ र मेरो पवित्र पर्वतको अधिकारी हुनेछ ।
When thou cry, let those whom thou have gathered deliver thee. But the wind shall take them; a breath shall carry them all away. But he who takes refuge in me shall possess the land, and shall inherit my holy mountain.
14 उहाँले भन्नुहुनेछ, 'बनओ, बनाओ! बाटो सफा बनाओ! मेरा मानिसहरूका बाटोबाट ठेस लाग्ने कुराहरू हटाओ'!”
And he will say, Cast ye up, cast ye up, prepare the way. Take up the stumbling-block out of the way of my people.
15 उच्च र माथि उचालिले यसो भन्नुहुन्छ, जो अनन्तसम्म जिउनुहुने, जसको नाउँ पवित्र हो, “म उचालिएको र पवित्र स्थानमा बस्छु, साथै जसको तोडिएको र नम्र आत्मा हुन्छ, नम्रहरूका आत्मा जगाउन र पश्चात्तापीहरूका हृदयलाई जगाउन, तिनीहरूमा म पनि बस्छु ।
For thus says the high and lofty One who inhabits eternity, whose name is Holy: I dwell in the high and holy place, also with him who is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite.
16 किनकि म सधैं दोष लगाउँदिनँ, न त म सधैं रिसाउँछु, किनकि त्यसो गरें भने, मानिसको आत्मा मेरो सामु मूर्छित हुन्छ, जुन जीवनहरू मैले नै बनाएको हो ।
For I will not contend forever, nor will I always be angry, for the spirit would faint before me, and the souls that I have made.
17 हिंसाले लिएको फाइदाको कारणले, म रिसाएँ, र मैले त्यसलाई दण्ड दिएँ । मैले आफ्नो मुख लुकाएँ र रिसाएँ, तर ऊ आफ्नो हृदयको मार्गमा पछाडितिर गयो ।
For the iniquity of his covetousness I was angry, and smote him. I hid my face and was angry, and he went on backsliding in the way of his heart.
18 मैले उसका बाटोहरू देखेको छु, तर म उसलाई निको पार्नेछु । म उसलाई डोर्याउनेछु, र उसको निम्ति शोक गर्नेहरूलाई सान्त्वना र सहानुभूति दिनेछु,
I have seen his ways, and will heal him. I will lead him also, and restore comforts to him and to his mourners.
19 र म ओठको फल सृजना गर्छु । परमप्रभु भन्नुहुन्छ, शान्ति, शान्ति, जो टाढा छन् र जो नजिक छन्— म तिनीहरूलाई निको पार्नेछु ।
I create the fruit of the lips. Peace, peace, to him who is far off and to him who is near, says Jehovah, and I will heal him.
20 तर दुष्टहरू उर्लिएको समुद्रजस्तै हुन् जसले विश्राम गर्न सक्दैन र यसको पानीले हिलो र दलदल घोलिदिन्छ ।
But the wicked are like the troubled sea, for it cannot rest, and its waters cast up mire and dirt.
21 दुष्टहरूको निम्ति कुनै शान्ति छैन— परमेश्वर भन्नुहुन्छ ।”
There is no peace, says my God, to the wicked.
