यशैया 60

1 उठ्, प्रकाशमान् हो, किनकि तेरो प्रकाश आएको छ र परमप्रभुको महिमा तँमाथि उदाएको छ ।

Arise, shine; for your light is come, and the glory of the LORD is risen on you.

2 पृथ्वीलाई अँध्यारोले र जातिहरूलाई बाक्‍लो अँध्यारोले ढाके तापनि, परमप्रभु तँमाथि उदाउनुहुनेछ र उहाँको महिमा तँमा देखिनेछ ।

For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the LORD shall arise on you, and his glory shall be seen on you.

3 जातिहरू तेरो प्रकाशमा आउनेछन् र राजाहरू उदाउँदै गरेको तेरो चहकिलो प्रकाशमा आउनेछन् ।

And the Gentiles shall come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your rising.

4 वरिपरि चारैतिर हेर् र देख् । तिनीहरू सबै आफै भेला हुन्छन् र तँकहाँ आउँछन् । तेरा छोराहरू टाढाबाट आउनेछन् र तिनीहरूका हातले तेरी छोरीहरूलाई बोकेर ल्‍याउनेछन् ।

Lift up your eyes round about, and see: all they gather themselves together, they come to you: your sons shall come from far, and your daughters shall be nursed at your side.

5 तब तैंले हेर्नेछस्, प्रज्वलित हुनेछस्, तेरो हृदय आनन्‍दित हुनेछ र भरिएर पोखिनेछ, किनभने समुद्रको प्रशस्‍तता तँलाई खन्याइनेछ र जातिहरूका सम्पत्ति तँकहाँ आउनेछन् ।

Then you shall see, and flow together, and your heart shall fear, and be enlarged; because the abundance of the sea shall be converted to you, the forces of the Gentiles shall come to you.

6 ऊँटका बथानहरू, मिद्यान र एपाका सवार गर्ने ऊँटहरूले तँलाई ढाक्‍नेछन् । ती सबै शेबाबाट आउनेछन् । तिनीहरूले सुन र धूप ल्याउनेछन् र परमप्रभुको प्रशंसा गाउनेछन् ।

The multitude of camels shall cover you, the dromedaries of Midian and Ephah; all they from Sheba shall come: they shall bring gold and incense; and they shall show forth the praises of the LORD.

7 केदारका सबै भेडाबाख्रालाई तँकहाँ जम्‍मा पारिनेछन् । नबायोतका भेडाहरूले तेरो आवश्यक्‍ता पुरा गर्नेछन् । तिनीहरू मेरो वेदीमा स्वीकारयोग्य बलिदान हुनेछन् । अनि आफ्‍नो महिमित भवनलाई म महिमित बनाउनेछु ।

All the flocks of Kedar shall be gathered together to you, the rams of Nebaioth shall minister to you: they shall come up with acceptance on my altar, and I will glorify the house of my glory.

8 बादलझैं र ढुकुरहरू आफ्‍ना गुँडहरूमा गएझैं उड्ने यी को हुन्?

Who are these that fly as a cloud, and as the doves to their windows?

9 समुद्र किनारहरूले मेरो खोजी गर्छन् । टाढाबाट परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्‍वर र इस्राएलका परमपवित्रको निम्ति तिमीहरूका छोराहरूलाई आफूसँग भएका सुन र चाँदीसँगै ल्याउनलाई तर्शीशका जहाजहरूले नेतृत्‍व गर्छन्, किनभने उहाँले तँलाई इज्‍जत गर्नुभएको छ ।

Surely the isles shall wait for me, and the ships of Tarshish first, to bring your sons from far, their silver and their gold with them, to the name of the LORD your God, and to the Holy One of Israel, because he has glorified you.

10 विदेशीहरूका छोराहरूले तेरा पर्खालहरू पुनःनिर्माण गर्नेछन् र तिनीहरूका राजाहरूले तेरो सेवा गर्नेछन् । मेरो क्रोधमा मैले तँलाई दण्ड दिए तापनि मेरो कृपामा म तँलाई दया देखाउनेछु ।

And the sons of strangers shall build up your walls, and their kings shall minister to you: for in my wrath I smote you, but in my favor have I had mercy on you.

11 तेरा ढोकाहरू पनि निरन्‍तर रूपमा खुला रहनेछ । ती दिन वा रात कहिल्यै बन्द गरिनेछैन, ताकि जातिहरूका सम्पत्ति तिनीहरूका राजाहरूलाई अगि राखेर ल्याउन सकियोस् ।

Therefore your gates shall be open continually; they shall not be shut day nor night; that men may bring to you the forces of the Gentiles, and that their kings may be brought.

12 वास्तवमा, तेरो सेवा नगर्ने जातिहरू र राज्यहरू नाश हुनेछन् । ती जातिहरू पुर्ण रूपमा नष्‍ट पारिनेछ ।

For the nation and kingdom that will not serve you shall perish; yes, those nations shall be utterly wasted.

13 लेबनानको महिमा तँकहा आउनेछ । सल्‍लो र धूपीका रूखहरू मेरो पवित्रस्थानलाई सुन्दर बनाउन आउनेछन् । अनि म मेरो पाउ राख्‍ने ठाउँलाई महिमित तुल्याउनेछु ।

The glory of Lebanon shall come to you, the fir tree, the pine tree, and the box together, to beautify the place of my sanctuary; and I will make the place of my feet glorious.

14 तँलाई तुच्छ पार्नेहरूका छोराहरू तँलाई दण्डवत गर्न आउनेछन् । तिनीहरूले तेरा पाउ ढोग्‍नेछन् । तिनीहरूले तँलाई परमप्रभुको सहर अर्थात् इस्राएलको परमपवित्रको सियोन भन्‍नेछन् ।

The sons also of them that afflicted you shall come bending to you; and all they that despised you shall bow themselves down at the soles of your feet; and they shall call you; The city of the LORD, The Zion of the Holy One of Israel.

15 तँबाट भएर कोही नहिंड्ने गरी त्यागिएको र घृणा गरिएको अवस्‍थामा रहनुको साटोमा, म तँलाई सदाको निम्ति गौरवको वस्तु, पुस्तादेखि पुस्‍तासम्‍मको निम्ति आनन्द बनाउनेछु ।

Whereas you have been forsaken and hated, so that no man went through you, I will make you an eternal excellency, a joy of many generations.

16 तैंले जातिहरूको दूध पनि पिउनेछस् र राजहरूका दूध कानेछस् । म, परमप्रभु नै तेरो उद्धारक र मुक्‍तिदाता, याकूबको शक्तिशाली हुँ भन्‍ने तैंले जान्‍नेछस् ।

You shall also suck the milk of the Gentiles, and shall suck the breast of kings: and you shall know that I the LORD am your Savior and your Redeemer, the mighty One of Jacob.

17 काँसाको सट्टामा म सुन ल्‍याउनेछु, फलामको सट्टामा म चाँदी ल्‍याउनेछु । काठको साटो काँसा र ढङ्गाको साटो फलाम ल्याउनेछु । शन्तिलाई म तेरो गभर्नर र न्यायलाई तेरो शासक नियुक्‍त गर्नेछु ।

For brass I will bring gold, and for iron I will bring silver, and for wood brass, and for stones iron: I will also make your officers peace, and your exactors righteousness.

18 तेरो देशमा हिंसा कदापि सुनिनेछैन, न त तेरो सिमानाभित्र विध्वांस वा तोडफोड सुनिनेछ, तर तैंले तेरा पर्खालहरूलाई मुक्‍ति र तेरा ढोकाहरूलाई प्रशंसा भन्‍नेछस् ।

Violence shall no more be heard in your land, wasting nor destruction within your borders; but you shall call your walls Salvation, and your gates Praise.

19 सूर्य दिनमा तेरो प्रकाश हुनेछैन, न त चन्द्रमाको उज्यालो तँमाथि चम्किनेछ । तर परमप्रभु नै तेरो अनन्तको प्रकाश र तेरो परमेश्‍वर नै तेरो महिमा हुनुहुनेछ ।

The sun shall be no more your light by day; neither for brightness shall the moon give light to you: but the LORD shall be to you an everlasting light, and your God your glory.

20 तेरो सूर्य कहिल्यै अस्ताउनेछैन, न त तेरो चन्द्रमा पछि हट्ने र लोप हुनेछ । किनकि परमप्रभु नै तेरो अनन्तको प्रकाश हुनुहुनेछ र तेरा शोकका दिनहरू समाप्‍त हुनेछन् ।

Your sun shall no more go down; neither shall your moon withdraw itself: for the LORD shall be your everlasting light, and the days of your mourning shall be ended.

21 तेरा सबै मानिस धर्मी हुनेछन् । तिनीहरूले सदाको निम्ति देश अधिकार गर्नेछन् । म महिमित हुन सकूँ भनेर ती मैले रोपेका बिरुवाका हाँगा र मेरा हातका काम हुन् ।

Your people also shall be all righteous: they shall inherit the land for ever, the branch of my planting, the work of my hands, that I may be glorified.

22 थोरैचाहिं एक हजार हुनेछ, सानो एउटा पनि बलियो जाति हुनेछ । जब समय आउँछ, तब म, परमप्रभुले यी कुराहरू चाँडै नै पुरा गर्नेछु ।

A little one shall become a thousand, and a small one a strong nation: I the LORD will hasten it in his time.
