< यशैया 7 >

1 उज्‍जियाहको नाति, योतामका छोरा यहूदाको राजा आहाजको समयमा, अरामका राजा रसीन, र इस्राएलका राजा रमल्याहका छोरा पेकह यरूशलेमको विरुद्धमा युद्ध गर्न माथि गए, तर तिनीहरू त्‍यसको विरुद्धमा विजयी हुन सकेनन् ।
Now it came about in the days of Ahaz, the son of Jotham, the son of Uzziah, king of Judah, that Rezin, the king of Aram, and Pekah, the son of Remaliah, the king of Israel, came up to Jerusalem to make war against it, but were not able to overcome it.
2 अरामले एफ्राइमसँग सन्‍धी गर्‍यो भनी दाऊदको घरानालाई बताइयो । तिनको हृदय काँप्यो, अनि तिनका मानिसहरूका हृदय जङ्गलका रुखहरू हावाले हल्लाएझैं काँप्यो ।
And word came to the family of David that Aram had put up its tents in Ephraim. And the king's heart, and the hearts of his people, were moved, like the trees of the wood shaking in the wind.
3 तब परमप्रभुले यशैयालाई भन्‍नुभयो, “तेरो छोरा शार्यासूबलाई साथमा लिएर आहाजलाई भेट्न धोबीको खेत जाने बाटोमा माथिल्लो पोखरीको नहरको छेउमा जा ।
Then the Lord said to Isaiah, Go out now, you and Shear-jashub, your son, and you will come across Ahaz at the end of the stream flowing from the higher pool, in the highway of the washerman's field;
4 उसलाई भन्, 'होसियार होऊ, शान्त बस, नडराऊ, रेसीन र अराम अनि रमल्याहको छोरा पेकहको भयङ्कर रिसको बलिरहेको अगुल्टोद्वारा त्रसित नहोऊ ।
And say to him, Take care and be quiet; have no fear, and do not let your heart be feeble, because of these two ends of smoking fire-wood, because of the bitter wrath of Rezin and Aram, and of the son of Remaliah.
5 अराम, एफ्राइम र रमल्याहको छोराले तिम्रो विरुद्धमा खराब योजना गरेका छन् । तिनीहरूले भनेका छन्,
Because Aram has made evil designs against you, saying,
6 “हामी यहूदालाई आक्रमण गरौं र त्यसलाई त्रसित बनाऔं, र हामी त्यसभित्र पसौं र ताबेलका छोरालाई त्‍यहाँ हाम्रा राजा बनाऔं ।”
Let us go up against Judah, troubling her, and forcing our way into her, and let us put up a king in her, even the son of Tabeel:
7 परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर भन्‍नुहुन्छ, “त्‍यो कुरा हुन आउनेछैन । त्‍यस्‍तो हुनेछैन,
This is the word of the Lord God: This design will not come about or be effected.
8 किनभने अरामको मुख्‍यालय दमसकस हो र दमसकसको मुखिया रेसीन हो । पैंसट्ठी वर्षभित्र, एफ्राइम टुक्रा-टुक्रा हुनेछ र त्यसमा कोही मानिस हुनेछैन ।
For the head of Aram is Damascus, and the head of Damascus is Rezin (and in sixty-five years from now Ephraim will be broken, and will no longer be a people):
9 एफ्राइमको मुख्‍यालय सामरिया हो र सामरियाको मुखिया रमल्याहको छोरा हो । तिमी विश्‍वासमा दृढ रहँदैनौ भने, निश्‍चय नै तिमी सुरक्षित हुनेछैनौ ।”
And the head of Ephraim is Samaria, and the head of Samaria is Remaliah's son. If you will not have faith, your kingdom will be broken.
10 परमप्रभुले फेरि आहाजसँग बोल्नुभयो,
And Isaiah said again to Ahaz,
11 “परमप्रभु आफ्‍ना परमश्‍वरसँग एउटा चिन्ह माग् । गहिराइमा भए पनि वा उच्‍चाइमा पनि यो माग् ।” (Sheol h7585)
Make a request to the Lord your God for a sign, a sign in the deep places of the underworld, or in the high heavens. (Sheol h7585)
12 तर आहाजले भने, “म माग्‍नेछैन, न त म परमप्रभुको जाँच नै गर्नेछु ।”
But Ahaz said, I will not put the Lord to the test by making such a request.
13 त्यसैले यशैयाले जवाफ दिए, “ए दाऊदका घराना, सुन । के तिमीहरूको निम्ति मानिसहरूका धेर्यको जाँच नै पर्याप्‍त हुँदैन र? के तिमीहरूले मेरो परमेश्‍वरको धैर्यको पनि जाँच गर्नुपर्छ र?
And he said, Give ear now, O family of David: is it not enough that you are driving men to disgust? will you do the same to my God?
14 यसकारण परमप्रभुले नै तिमीहरूलाई एउटा चिन्ह दिनुहुनेछः हेर, एज जना कन्या केटीले गर्भधारण गर्नेछिन्, एउटा छोरा जन्माउनेछिन् र उनको नाउँ इम्मानुएल राख्‍नेछिन् ।
For this cause the Lord himself will give you a sign; a young woman is now with child, and she will give birth to a son, and she will give him the name Immanuel.
15 जब उनले खराबलाई इन्कार गर्न र असललाई रोज्‍न जान्‍दछन्, तब उनले दही र मह खानेछन् ।
Butter and honey will be his food, when he is old enough to make a decision between evil and good.
16 किनकि बालकले खराबलाई इन्कार गर्न र असललाई रोज्‍न जान्‍नुअघि नै तिमी डराएका दुई जना राजाहरूका देश उजाड हुनेछन् ।
For before the child is old enough to make a decision between evil and good, the land whose two kings you are now fearing will have become waste.
17 परमप्रभुले तिमी, तिम्रा मानिसहरू र तिम्रा बुबाको घरानामाथि एफ्राइम यहूदाबाट छुटेदेखि कहिल्यै नभएको कुरा ल्याउनुहुनेछ— उहाँले तिमीमाथि अश्शूरका राजा ल्याउनुहुनेछ ।”
The Lord is about to send on you, and on your people, and on your father's house, such a time of trouble as there has not been from the days of the separating of Ephraim from Judah; even the coming of the king of Assyria.
18 त्यस बेला परमप्रभुले झींगालाई मिश्रदेशको खोलादेखि र मौरीलाई अश्शूरको देशदेखि सुसेलेर बोलाउनुहुनेछ ।
And it will be in that day that the Lord will make a piping sound for the fly which is in the end of the rivers of Egypt, and for the bee which is in the land of Assyria.
19 तिनीहरू सबै आउनेछन् र घाँटीहरूमा, चट्टानको चिराहरूभित्र, सबै काँढाका झाङमाथि र सबै चरनहरूमा बस्‍नेछन् ।
And they will come, covering all the waste valleys, and the holes of the rocks, and the thorns, and all the watering-places.
20 त्यस बेला परमप्रभुले युफ्रेटिस नदी पारि अश्‍शूरका राजाकोबाट भाडामा लिइएको छुराले, टाउकाहरू र खुट्टाहरूका रौं खौरनुहुनेछ । त्‍यसले दाह्रीलाई पनि सफा गर्नेछ ।
In that day will the Lord take away the hair of the head and of the feet, as well as the hair of the face, with a blade got for a price from the other side of the River; even with the king of Assyria.
21 त्यस दिन, एक जना मानिसले एउटा कोरली र दुई वटा भेडा पाल्नेछ,
And it will be in that day that a man will give food to a young cow and two sheep;
22 र तिनीहरूले दिने दूधको प्रशस्‍तताको कारणले, उसले दही खानेछ, किनकि देशमा छोडिएका हरेकले दूध र मह खानेछन् ।
And they will give so much milk that he will be able to have butter for his food: for butter and honey will be the food of all who are still living in the land.
23 त्यस बेला, हजार बोट दाखको हजार शेकेल पर्ने जग्गामा, त्‍यहाँ सिउँडी र काँढा बाहेक केही हुनेछैन ।
And it will be in that day that in every place where before there were a thousand vines valued at a thousand shekels of silver, there will be nothing but blackberries and thorns.
24 मानिहरू त्यहाँ धनु लिएर शिकार गर्न जानेछन्, किनभने सबै देश नै सिउँडी र काँढा हुनेछन् ।
Men will come there with bows and arrows, because all the land will be full of blackberries and thorns.
25 तिनीहरू सिउँडी र काँढाको डरले खनजोत गरी खेतीपाती गरिएका सबै डाँडाबाट टाढै रहनेछन् । तर यो गाईवस्‍तु र भेडाहरू चर्ने ठाउँ हुनेछ ।
And they will send out the oxen and the sheep on all the hills which before were worked with the spade, ... fear of blackberries and thorns.
