यशैया 8
1 परमप्रभुले मलाई भन्नुभयो, “एउटा ठुलो पाटी ले र त्यसमा लेख्, ‘महेर-शालल-हाज-बज ।'
Yahweh said to me, “Take a large tablet and write on it, 'Maher-Shalal-Hash-Baz.'
2 मेरो कुरा पक्का गर्नलाई म विश्वासयोग्य साक्षीहरू अर्थात् पुजारी उरियाह र येबेरक्याहका छोरा जकरियालाई बोलाउनेछु ।”
I will summon faithful witnesses to attest for me, Uriah the priest, and Zechariah son of Jeberekiah.”
3 म अगमवादिनीकहाँ गएँ र तिनी गर्भवती भइन् र एउटा छोरा जन्माइन् । तब परमप्रभुले मलाई भन्नुभयो, “त्यसको नाउँ महेर-शालल-हाज-बज राख् ।
I went to the prophetess, and she conceived and bore a son. Then Yahweh said to me, “Call his name Maher-Shalal-Hash-Baz.
4 किनकि बालकले 'मेरो बुबा' र 'मेरो आमा' भन्न जान्नअघि नै दमसकसको धन र सामरियाको लूटलाई अश्शूरको राजाले बोकेर लैजानेछ ।”
For before the child knows to cry, 'My father,' and, 'My mother,' the riches of Damascus and the plunder of Samaria will be carried away by the king of Assyria.”
5 परमप्रभु फेरि मसँग बोल्नुभयो,
Yahweh spoke to me again,
6 “यी मानिसहरूले शीलोको शान्त पानीलाई इन्कार गरेका छन् अनि रसीन र रमल्याहको छोरासित खुसी भएका छन्,
“Because this people has refused the gentle waters of Shiloah, and is happy over Rezin and Remaliah's son,
7 त्यसकारण परमप्रभुले शक्तिशाली र धेरै नदीको पानी अर्थात् अश्शूरका राजा र तिनका सबै महिमा तिनीहरूमाथि ल्याउन लाग्नुभएको छ । त्यसका सबै नहरमा त्यो आउनेछ र त्यसका किनारहरू भरिएर बग्नेछन् ।
therefore the Lord is about to bring up on them the waters of the River, mighty and many, the king of Assyria and all his glory. It will come up over all its channels and overflow its banks.
8 यो तिमीहरूका घाँटीसम्म पुगुन्जेल नदी बाढी आएर अघि बढ्दै यहूदाभित्रसम्म बग्नेछ । ए इम्मानुएल, यसको फैलिएका पखेटाहरूले तेरो देशकको सबैतिर ढाक्नेछ ।”
The River will sweep onward into Judah, flooding and passing on, until it reaches to your neck. Its outstretched wings will fill the breadth of your land, Immanuel.”
9 मानिसहरू टुक्रा-टुक्रा हुनेछन् । सुन, ए टाढाका देशहरूः युद्धको निम्ति आफूलाई हतियारले तयार गर र चकनाचूर होओ । आफूलाई हतियारले तयार गर र चकनाचूर होओ ।
You peoples will be broken to pieces. Listen, all you distant countries: arm yourselves for war and be broken in pieces; arm yourselves and be broken in pieces.
10 योजना बनाओ, तर यो पुरा हुनेछैन । आज्ञा गर, तर यो पालन गरिनेछैन, किनकि परमेश्वर हामीसँग हुनुहुन्छ ।
Form a plan, but it will not be carried out; issue the command, but it will not be carried out, for God is with us.
11 परमप्रभुले मसँग बोल्नुभयो, उहाँको बलियो बाहुली ममाथि थियो र यी मानिसहरू हिंडेका मार्ग नहिंड्न मलाई चेताउनी दिनुभयो ।
Yahweh spoke to me, with his strong hand upon me, and warned me not to walk in the way of this people.
12 यी मानिसहरूले षड्यान्त्र भनेको कुनै पनि कुरालाई षड्यान्त्र नभन्, तिनीहरू डराउने कुरासित तँ डराउने छैनस्, र त्रसित नहो ।
Do not call conspiracy anything that this people calls conspiracy, you will not fear what they fear, and do not be terrified.
13 तैंले पवित्र मानेर आदर गर्ने परमप्रभु नै हुनुहुन्छ । तैंले उहाँकै भय मान्नुपर्छ र तँ उहाँसितै डराउनुपर्छ ।
It is Yahweh of hosts whom you will honor as holy; he is the one you must fear, and he is the one you must dread.
14 उहाँ पवित्र वासस्थान हुनुहुनेछ । तर इस्राएलका दुवै घरानाका निम्ति उहाँ प्रहार गर्ने ढुङ्गो र ठेस लाग्ने चट्टान हुनुहुनेछ— र यरूशलेमका मानिसहरूका निम्ति उहाँ पासो र जाल हुनुहुनेछ ।
He will become a sanctuary; but he will be a stone of striking, and a rock of stumbling— for both the houses of Israel, and he will be a trap and a snare to the people of Jerusalem.
15 धेरै जना मानिस यसमा ठेस खानेछन् र लड्नेछन् र चकनाचूर हुनेछन्, र जाल फस्नेछन् र समातिनेछन् ।
Many will stumble over it and fall and be broken, and be ensnared and captured.
16 मेरो गवाहीलाई बाँध, आधिकारिक लेखमा छाप लगाऊ र त्यो मेरा चेलाहरूलाई देऊ ।
Bind up my testimony, seal the official record, and give it to my disciples.
17 याकूबको घरानाबाट आफ्नो मुहार लुकाउनुहुने परमप्रभु म आशा गर्छु । म उहाँमा भरोसा गर्छु ।
I will wait for Yahweh, who hides his face from the house of Jacob; I will trust in him.
18 हेर, म र परमप्रभुले मलाई दिनुभएको छोरा सियोन पर्वतमा वास गर्नुहुने सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभुबाट, इस्राएलको निम्ति चिन्हहरू र आश्चर्य कामहरू हुन् ।
See, I and the sons whom Yahweh has given me are for signs and for wonders in Israel from Yahweh of hosts, who lives on Mount Zion.
19 तिनीहरूले तिमीहरूलाई भन्नेछन्, “भूत खेलाउने र आत्माहरू खेलाउनेसित सल्लाह लेओ” जसले मन्त्र भन्छन् र गुनगुनाउछन् । तर के मानिसहरूले आफ्नो परमेश्वरसँग सल्लाह लिनुपर्दैन र? के तिनीहरूले जीवितहरूको निम्ति मृतहरूसँग सल्लाह लिनुपर्छ र?
They will say to you, “Consult with the mediums and spiritists,” those who chirp and mutter incantations. But should a people not consult their God? Should they consult the dead on behalf of the living?
20 व्यवस्था र गवाहीतिर लाग! तिनले यसो भन्दैनन् भने, तिनीहरूसँग बिहानको मिरमिरे उज्यालो नभएको हुनाले नै हो ।
To the law and to the testimony! If they do not say such things, it is because they have no light of dawn.
21 तिनीहरू अति व्याकूल भएर र भोकाएर देशमा हिंड्नेछन् । जब तिनीहरू भोकाउँछन्, तब तिनीहरू रिसाउनेछन्, र तिनीहरूले आफ्नो अनुहार माथि उचाल्दा, आफ्ना राजा र आफ्ना परमेश्वरलाई सराप्नेछन् ।
They will pass through the land greatly distressed and hungry. When they are hungry, they will become angry and curse their king and their God, as they turn their faces upward.
22 तिनीहरूले पृथ्वीमा हेर्नेछन् र व्यकुलता, अन्धकार र अत्याचारको बादल देख्नेछन् । तिनीहरू अन्धकारको देशमा लगिनेछन् ।
They will look at the earth and see distress, darkness, and oppressive gloom. They will be driven into a land of darkness.
