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 the town of Bozrah with clothes stained crimson? Who is this wearing robes of splendor, leaning forward in his great strength as he marches? It is me, the one who always speaks goodness and truth, the one who has the power to save.
2 तपाईंका पोशाकहरू किन राता छन् र तपाईंले दाखको कोलमा दाख पेल्नुभएको जस्तो ती किन देखिन्‍छन्?
Why are your clothes red, like you've been treading grapes in a 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've been treading the winepress by myself; from the nations around no one came to help me. So in my anger I trod them down as if they were grapes, in my fury I trampled them. It's their blood that has stained my clothes.
4 किनकि मैले बदला लिने दिनको आशा गरें र मेरो उद्धारको वर्ष आइपुगेको थियो ।
For I decided this was the day of my vengeance; the year of my redemption has 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 around, but no one came to help; I was shocked that there was no one to assist me. So I saved them through my own strength alone, and my own anger kept me going.
6 आफ्‍नो क्रोधमा मैले मानिसहरूलाई कुल्चें र तिनीहरूलाई मेरो क्रोधमा पिउन लगाएँ । अनि तिनीहरूका रगतलाई मैले पृथ्वीमा खन्याएँ ।
I trampled down the nations in my anger; in my fury I made them drunk, and spilled their blood upon 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 want to tell everyone about the Lord's trustworthy love. I will praise the Lord for everything he's done for us—all the good things he has done for the descendants of Israel because of his kindness and his infinite trustworthy love.
8 किनकि उहाँले भन्‍नुभयो, “निश्‍चय नै तिनीहरू मेरा मानिसहरू हुन्, छोराछोरी जो बेइमान छैनन् ।” उहाँ तिनीहरूका मुक्‍तिदाता हुनुभयो ।
He said, “Aren't they my people, children who wouldn't lie to me?” 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 ।
He suffered with them in all their suffering, and the angel of his presence saved them. In his love and kindness he redeemed them. He picked them up and carried them all throughout those years long ago.
10 तर तिनीहरूले विद्रोह गरे र पवित्र आत्मालाई दुःखी तुल्याए । यसरी उहाँ तिनीहरूका शत्रु हुनुभयो र तिनीहरूका विरुद्धमा युद्ध गर्नुभयो ।
But they rebelled against him, and caused his Holy Spirit grief, so to them he became like an enemy and he 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 they thought back to the days of old when Moses led his people out of Egypt. They shouted out, “Where is the one who took Israel through the sea, along with the shepherds of his flock? Where is the one who placed his Holy Spirit among his people?
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?
Where is the one who lifted Moses' right hand, and who used his amazing power to divided the sea in front of them, giving him such a wonderful, enduring reputation?
13 परमेश्‍वर कहाँ हुनुहुन्छ जसले तिनीहरूलाई गहिरो पानीबाट डोर्‍याउनुभयो? मैदानमा घोडा दौडेझैं, तिनीहरूले ठेस खाएनन् ।
Where is the one who led them through the depths of the sea?” They were like a horse running through the desert, they didn't stumble.
14 गाइवस्तु बेसीमा झरेझैं, परमप्रभुको आत्माले तिनीहरूलाई विश्राम दिनुभयो । यसरी आफ्‍नो निम्‍ति प्रशंसाको नाउँ बनाउनलाई तपाईंले आफ्‍ना मानिसहरूलाई डोर्‍याउनुभयो?
Like cattle descending into a valley, the Lord's Spirit gave them rest. This is how you led your people, earning a glorious reputation for yourself.
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 ।
Lord, look down on us from heaven! Watch from your high home, in your holiness and glory! Where is your enthusiasm and power? You're not showing me your feelings of sympathy and kindness!
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 ।
But you are still our Father, even though Abraham wouldn't know us and Israel wouldn't acknowledge us. You, Lord, are our Father; you have always been called our Redeemer from long ago.
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 ।
Lord, why do you make us wander from your ways, and make us stubborn so we don't respect you? Come back to us for the sake of your servants, the tribes that belong to you.
18 तपाईंका मानिसहरूले तपाईंको पवित्र ठाउँलाई छोटो समय अधिकार गरे, तर हाम्रा शत्रुहरूले त्‍यसलाई कुल्चे ।
Your Temple belonged to us for a little while, but then our enemies invaded and destroyed it.
19 हामी त तपाईंले हामीमाथि कहिल्यै शासन नगर्नुभएजस्तो र तपाईंको नाउँद्वारा कहिल्यै नबोलाइएजस्तै भएका छौं।”
We were yours from ancient times, but we've ended up like people you've never ruled, never identified as yours.
