< यशैया 6 >

1 उज्‍जियाह राजाको मृत्यु भएको वर्षमा मैले परमप्रभुलाई सिंहासनमा विराजमान हुनुभएको देखें । उहाँ उच्‍च र उचालिएको हुनुहुन्थ्यो, अनि उहाँको पोशाकको छेउले मन्दिर नै ढाकेको थियो ।
In the year that king Uzziah died I saw also the LORD sitting on a throne, high and lifted up, and his train filled the temple.
2 उहाँ माथिल्तिर सराफहरू थिए । प्रत्‍येकका छ-छवटा पखेटाहरू थिए । दुई वटा पखेटाहरूले प्रत्‍येकले आफ्नो मुहार छोप्थे र दुई वटा पखेटाले तिनले आफ्‍ना खुट्टा छोप्थे र दुई वटाले ती उड्थे ।
Above it stood the seraphim: each one had six wings; with two he covered his face, and with two he covered his feet, and with two he did fly.
3 प्रत्‍येकले अर्कोलाई बोलाउँथे र यसो भन्थे, “सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभु पवित्र, पवित्र, पवित्र हुनुहुन्छ! सारा पृथ्वी उहाँको महिमाले भरिएको छ ।”
And one cried to another, and said, Holy, holy, holy, is the LORD of hosts: the whole earth is full of his glory.
4 ती कराइरहेकाहरूको आवाजले सँघारका जगहरू हल्लिए र मन्‍दिर धूँवाले भरिएको थियो ।
And the posts of the door moved at the voice of him that cried, and the house was filled with smoke.
5 तब मैले भने, “मलाई धिक्‍कार होस्! किनभने म सर्वनाश भएँ, म त अशुद्ध ओठ भएको मानिस हुँ, र अशुद्ध मानिसहरूको बिचमा म बस्छु, किनभने सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभु महाराजा परमप्रभुलाई नै मेरा आँखाले देखेका छन्!”
Then said I, Woe is me! for I am undone; because I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the middle of a people of unclean lips: for my eyes have seen the King, the LORD of hosts.
6 तब सराफहरूमध्ये एउटा उडेर मकहाँ आए । उनको हातमा बलिरहेको भुङ्‍ग्रो थियो, जसलाई उनले वेदीबाट चिम्टाले निकालेका थिए ।
Then flew one of the seraphim to me, having a live coal in his hand, which he had taken with the tongs from off the altar:
7 त्यसले उनले मेरो ओठ छोए र भने, “हेर, यसले तिम्रो ओठ छोएको छ । तिम्रा दोषहरू हटाइएका छन् र तिम्रा पापको प्रायश्‍चि गरिएको छ ।”
And he laid it on my mouth, and said, See, this has touched your lips; and your iniquity is taken away, and your sin purged.
8 मैले परमप्रभुको यसो भन्‍ने आवाज सुनें, “म कसलाई पठाऊँ । हाम्रा निम्ति को जान्छ?” तब मैले भनें, “म यहाँ छु । मलाई पठाउनुहोस् ।”
Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then said I, Here am I; send me.
9 उहाँले भन्‍नुभयो, “जाऊ, यी मानिहरूलाई भन, 'सुन्‍छौ, तर बुझ्दैनौ । हेर्छौ, तर थाहा पाउँदैनौ ।'
And he said, Go, and tell this people, Hear you indeed, but understand not; and see you indeed, but perceive not.
10 यी मानिसहरूका हृदयलाई मुर्ख बनाऊ, र तिनीहरूका कानलाई बैरो बनाऊ र तिनीहरूका आँखालाई अन्‍धो बनाऊ । अन्‍यथा तिनीहरूका आफ्नो आँखाले देख्‍लान्, तिनीहरूका कानले सुन्‍लान् र तिनीहरूका हृदयले बुझ्‍लान् र तब फर्केर निको होलान् ।”
Make the heart of this people fat, and make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and convert, and be healed.
11 तब मैले भने, “हे परमप्रभु, कहिलेसम्म?” उहाँले जवाफ दिनुभयो, “बासिन्दाविनाका भग्‍नावशेष सहरहरू ध्‍वस्‍त नहुन्‍जेल र मानिसविनाका घरहरू नहुन्‍जेल, र देश उजाड नहुन्‍जेल,
Then said I, Lord, how long? And he answered, Until the cities be wasted without inhabitant, and the houses without man, and the land be utterly desolate,
12 अनि परमप्रभुले मानिसहरूलाई टाढा नपठाउन्‍जेल र देश ठुलो निर्जन नहुन्‍जेलसम्‍म ।
And the LORD have removed men far away, and there be a great forsaking in the middle of the land.
13 यसमा मानिसहरूको दस भागमा एक भाग रहे तापनि, फेरि पनि त्‍यो नष्‍ट पारिनेछ । तारपीन र फँलाट काटिन्छ र त्‍यसको ठुटो बाँकी रहेझैं, त्‍यसको पवित्र बीउ त्‍यसको ठुटोमा हुन्छ ।”
But yet in it shall be a tenth, and it shall return, and shall be eaten: as a teil tree, and as an oak, whose substance is in them, when they cast their leaves: so the holy seed shall be the substance thereof.
