< 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 ।
Good people die, and nobody cares; the faithful pass away, and nobody thinks that they were being protected from evil.
2 ऊ शन्तिमा प्रवेश गर्छ । जो आफ्नो सोझोपनमा हिंड्छन् तिनीहरू आफ्ना ओछ्यानहरूमा आराम गर्छन् ।
Those who follow what's right rest in peace; they find rest as they lie down in death.
3 तर तिमीहरू झँक्रेनीना छोराहरू, व्यभिचारी र आफूलाई वेश्या बनाउने स्‍त्रीको सन्तानहरू, यहाँ आओ ।
But as for you, children of fortune-tellers, the product of adultery and prostitution—come here!
4 तिमीहरू खुसी हुँदै कसलाई गिल्‍ला गर्दैछौ? कसको विरुद्धमा तिमीहरूले मुख खोल्‍दैछौ र जिब्रो निकाल्दैछौ? के तिमीहरू विद्रोह र छलका छोराछोरी होइनौ र?
Who are you making fun of when you make sneering faces and stick out your tongues? Aren't you the children of sin and lies?
5 तिमीहरूले फलाँटका रूखहरूमुनि र हरेक हरियो रूखमुनि सँगै सुतेर आफैलाई यौनको उत्तेजनामा पार्छौ, तिमीहरू जसले आफ्ना छोराछोरीलाई सुख्खा नदीहरूमा, चट्टानका धाँदामुनि बलि गर्छौ ।
You're the ones having pagan orgies under the oak trees, under every green tree. You sacrifice your children in the valleys and among the rocky peaks.
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?
You have chosen to worship the smooth stones from the streams of the valleys—that's the choice you've made! You have poured out drink offerings to these idols—you have presented them with grain offerings. Should that make me happy?
7 तिमीहरूले आफ्ना ओछ्यान उच्‍च पहाडमाथि बनाउँछौ । तिमीहरू बलिदानहरू चढाउन पनि त्यसमाथि गयौ ।
You have committed adultery by idol worship on every high mountain; you went there to offer pagan sacrifices.
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 ।
You've placed your pagan signs behind your doors and on your doorposts. Deserting me, you took off your clothes and climbed into bed, committing yourselves to those you love to be in bed with. You've seen them naked.
9 तिमीहरू मोलेककहाँ तेल लिएर गयौ । तिमीहरूले सुगन्धित तेल बढायौ । तिमीहरूले आफ्‍ना राजदूतहरूलाई टाढा पठायौ । तिमीहरू तल चिहान गयौ । (Sheol h7585)
You went to offer Molech olive oil, covering yourself with many perfumes. You sent your messengers to distant places; you even went down into the world of the dead. (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 ।
You wore yourselves out by such running around, but you didn't give up and say, “It's hopeless!” You found new strength and so didn't become weak.
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 ।
Who were you scared of, who frightened you so much that you lied to me, didn't remember me, didn't even think about me? Is it because I've been quiet for so long that you don't even fear me?
12 तिमीहरूका सबै धर्मिक कामहरू घोषणा म गर्ने र तिमीहरूले गरेका सबै कुरा भन्‍नेछु, तर तिनीहरूले तिमीहरूलाई सहायता गर्नेछैनन् ।
I'm going to let everyone know about how you're so good and the things you do—but they won't help you!
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 you cry out for help, let's see if your collection of idols will save you! The wind will blow them all away, just a breath and they're gone! But whoever comes to me for help will own the land and possess my holy mountain.
14 उहाँले भन्‍नुहुनेछ, 'बनओ, बनाओ! बाटो सफा बनाओ! मेरा मानिसहरूका बाटोबाट ठेस लाग्‍ने कुराहरू हटाओ'!”
He will say, Build a highway, remove anything that's in 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 ।
This is what the one who is high above all says, he who lives in eternity, whose name is holy: I live in a high and holy place, together with those who repent and who act humbly, restoring their spirits and encouraging them.
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 ।
I won't fight with you forever; I won't be angry with you forever. Otherwise you'd lose heart, the very people I gave life to.
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 ।
Yes, I was angry with these sinful, greedy people so I punished them. I was angry, so I hid myself from them, but they went on their own rebellious way, doing whatever they wanted.
18 मैले उसका बाटोहरू देखेको छु, तर म उसलाई निको पार्नेछु । म उसलाई डोर्‍याउनेछु, र उसको निम्ति शोक गर्नेहरूलाई सान्त्वना र सहानुभूति दिनेछु,
I know what they're doing, but I will heal them. I will lead them and comfort those who mourn,
19 र म ओठको फल सृजना गर्छु । परमप्रभु भन्‍नुहुन्छ, शान्ति, शान्ति, जो टाढा छन् र जो नजिक छन्— म तिनीहरूलाई निको पार्नेछु ।
so they will able to say thankyou. The Lord declares, Peace, peace, to those who are far away and those who are near. I will heal you.
20 तर दुष्‍टहरू उर्लिएको समुद्रजस्तै हुन् जसले विश्राम गर्न सक्दैन र यसको पानीले हिलो र दलदल घोलिदिन्‍छ ।
But the wicked are like the sea that is tossed about, never keeping still, churning up the mud and muck with its waves.
21 दुष्‍टहरूको निम्ति कुनै शान्ति छैन— परमेश्‍वर भन्‍नुहुन्छ ।”
There's no peace for the wicked, says my God.
