< यशैया 63 >

1 उहाँ को हुनुहुन्‍छ जो एदोमबाट, बोज्राबाट रातो पहिरनमा आउनुहुन्‍छ? जो आफ्‍नो महान् सामर्थ्यको कारणले राजकीय पोशाकमा रवाफका साथ आउँदै हुनुहुन्‍छ? धार्मिकतामा बोल्ने र बचाउनलाई शक्तिशाली रूपमा सक्षम म नै हुँ?
Who is this coming from Edom, from Bozrah with crimson-stained garments? Who is this robed in splendor, marching in the greatness of His strength? “It is I, proclaiming vindication, mighty to save.”
2 तपाईंका पोशाकहरू किन राता छन् र तपाईंले दाखको कोलमा दाख पेल्नुभएको जस्तो ती किन देखिन्‍छन्?
Why are Your clothes red, and Your garments like one who treads the winepress?
3 मैले दाखको कोलमा एक्‍लै दाख पेलेको छु, र जातिहरूबाट कोही पनि मसँग सहभागी भएनन् । मैले आफ्‍नो क्रोधमा तिनीहरूलाई पेलें र आफ्‍नो रिसमा तिनीहरूलाई कुल्चें । तिनीहरूका रगत मेरो लुगाहरूमा छ्यापिएका छन् र मेरा सबै लुगाहरूमा दाख लागेको छ ।
“I have trodden the winepress alone, and no one from the nations was with Me. I trampled them in My anger and trod them down in My fury; their blood spattered My garments, and all My clothes were stained.
4 किनकि मैले बदला लिने दिनको आशा गरें र मेरो उद्धारको वर्ष आइपुगेको थियो ।
For the day of vengeance was in My heart, and the year of My redemption had come.
5 मैले हेरें र सहायता गर्ने कोही एक जना पनि थिएन । सहयता गर्नलाई त्‍यहाँ कोही एक जना पनि नभएको देखेर म छक्‍क परें, तर मेरो आफ्नै हातले मेरो निम्‍ति विजय ल्‍यायो र मेरो कडा रिसले मलाई डोर्‍यायो ।
I looked, but there was no one to help; I was appalled that no one assisted. So My arm brought Me salvation, and My own wrath upheld Me.
6 आफ्‍नो क्रोधमा मैले मानिसहरूलाई कुल्चें र तिनीहरूलाई मेरो क्रोधमा पिउन लगाएँ । अनि तिनीहरूका रगतलाई मैले पृथ्वीमा खन्याएँ ।
I trampled the nations in My anger; in My wrath I made them drunk and poured out their blood on the ground.”
7 परमप्रभुको करारको विश्‍वस्‍तताका कामहरू र परमप्रभुको प्रशंसायोग्य कामहरू म भन्‍नेछु । परमप्रभुले हाम्रा निम्‍ति गर्नुभएको सबै काम र इस्राएलको घरानाप्रति उहाँका महान् भलाइको बारेमा म भन्‍नेछु । उहाँको दया र करारको विश्‍वस्‍तताका धेरै वटा कामहरूका कारणले उहाँले यो दया हामीलाई देखाउनुभएको छ ।
I will make known the LORD’s loving devotion and His praiseworthy acts, because of all that the LORD has done for us— the many good things for the house of Israel according to His great compassion and loving devotion.
8 किनकि उहाँले भन्‍नुभयो, “निश्‍चय नै तिनीहरू मेरा मानिसहरू हुन्, छोराछोरी जो बेइमान छैनन् ।” उहाँ तिनीहरूका मुक्‍तिदाता हुनुभयो ।
For He said, “They are surely My people, sons who will not be disloyal.” So He became their Savior.
9 तिनीहरूका सबै कष्‍टहरूद्वारा उहाँले पनि कष्‍ट भोग्‍नुभयो, र उहाँको उपस्थितिको स्वर्गदूतले तिनीहरूलाई बचायो । आफ्‍नो प्रेम र दयामा उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई बचाउनुभयो र उहाँले तिनिहरूलाई माथि उठाउनुभयो र सारा प्राचीन समयभरि तिनीहरूलाई बोक्‍नुभयो ।
In all their distress, He too was afflicted, and the Angel of His Presence saved them. In His love and compassion He redeemed them; He lifted them up and carried them all the days of old.
10 तर तिनीहरूले विद्रोह गरे र पवित्र आत्मालाई दुःखी तुल्याए । यसरी उहाँ तिनीहरूका शत्रु हुनुभयो र तिनीहरूका विरुद्धमा युद्ध गर्नुभयो ।
But they rebelled and grieved His Holy Spirit. So He turned and became their enemy, and He Himself fought against them.
11 उहाँका मानिसहरूले मोशाको प्राचीन समयको बारेमा विचार गरे । तिनीहरूले भने, “परमेश्‍वर कहाँ हुनुहुन्छ जसले आफ्‍ना बथानका गोठालाहरूसँगै तिनीहरूलाई समुद्रबाट ल्याउनुभयो? परमेश्‍वर कहाँ हुनुहुन्छ जसले आफ्‍नो पवित्र आत्मा तिनीहरूका बिचमा राख्‍नुभयो?
Then His people remembered the days of old, the days of Moses. Where is He who brought them through the sea with the shepherds of His flock? Where is the One who set His Holy Spirit among them,
12 परमेश्‍वर कहाँ हुनुहुन्छ जसले मोशाको दाहिने हातसँगै आफ्‍नो महिमित शक्ति जान दिनुभयो र आफ्‍नो निम्ति अनन्तको नाउँ बनाउन तिनीहरूका सामु भएको पानीलाई विभाजन गर्नुभयो?
who sent His glorious arm to lead them by the right hand of Moses, who divided the waters before them to gain for Himself everlasting renown,
13 परमेश्‍वर कहाँ हुनुहुन्छ जसले तिनीहरूलाई गहिरो पानीबाट डोर्‍याउनुभयो? मैदानमा घोडा दौडेझैं, तिनीहरूले ठेस खाएनन् ।
who led them through the depths like a horse in the wilderness, so that they did not stumble?
14 गाइवस्तु बेसीमा झरेझैं, परमप्रभुको आत्माले तिनीहरूलाई विश्राम दिनुभयो । यसरी आफ्‍नो निम्‍ति प्रशंसाको नाउँ बनाउनलाई तपाईंले आफ्‍ना मानिसहरूलाई डोर्‍याउनुभयो?
Like cattle going down to the valley, the Spirit of the LORD gave them rest. You led Your people this way to make for Yourself a glorious name.
15 स्वर्गबाट तल हेर्नुहोस् र आफ्‍नो पवित्र र महिमित वासस्थानबाट दृष्‍टि लगाउनुहोस् । तपाईंको जोश र तपाईंको शक्तिशाली कामहरू कहाँ छन्? तपाईंको दया र तपाईंको कृपापुर्ण कामहरू हामीबाट अलग राखिएका छन् ।
Look down from heaven and see, from Your holy and glorious habitation. Where are Your zeal and might? Your yearning and compassion for me are restrained.
16 किनकि तपाईं हाम्रा पिता हुनुहुन्छ । अब्राहामले हामीलाई नचिने र इस्राएलले हामीलाई नचिने तापनि, तपाईं परमप्रभु हाम्रो पिता हुनुहुन्छ । प्राचीन समयदेखि तपाईंको नाउँ 'हाम्रा उद्धारक' हो ।
Yet You are our Father, though Abraham does not know us and Israel does not acknowledge us. You, O LORD, are our Father; our Redeemer from Everlasting is Your name.
17 हे परमप्रभु, हामीलाई किन तपाईंको मार्गहरूबाट तर्कने र हाम्रा हृदयहरूलाई कठोर पार्ने बनाउनुहुन्छ, यसैले हामीले तपाईंका आज्ञा पालन गर्दैनौं? तपाईंको सेवक, तपाईंको उत्तराधिकारका कुलहरूका निम्‍ति फर्कनुहोस् ।
Why, O LORD, do You make us stray from Your ways and harden our hearts from fearing You? Return, for the sake of Your servants, the tribes of Your heritage.
18 तपाईंका मानिसहरूले तपाईंको पवित्र ठाउँलाई छोटो समय अधिकार गरे, तर हाम्रा शत्रुहरूले त्‍यसलाई कुल्चे ।
For a short while Your people possessed Your holy place, but our enemies have trampled Your sanctuary.
19 हामी त तपाईंले हामीमाथि कहिल्यै शासन नगर्नुभएजस्तो र तपाईंको नाउँद्वारा कहिल्यै नबोलाइएजस्तै भएका छौं।”
We have become like those You never ruled, like those not called by Your name.
