< यशैया 1 >

1 यहूदाका राजाहरू उज्‍जियाह, योताम, आहाज र हिजकियाका समयमा यरूशलेम र यहूदाको बारेमा आमोसका छोरा यशैयाले दखेका दर्शन ।
The visions of Isaiah son of Amoz, that he has seen concerning Judah and Jerusalem, in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, Hezekiah, kings of Judah.
2 ए आकाश सुन्, र ए पृथ्वी कान थाप् । किनकि परमप्रभु बोल्नुभएको छः “मैले छोराछोरीलाई पालनपोषण गरेको र हुर्काएको छु, तर तिनीहरूले मेरो विरुद्धमा विद्रोह गरेका छन् ।
Hear, O heavens, and give ear, O earth, For YHWH has spoken: “I have nourished and brought up sons, And they transgressed against Me.
3 गोरुले आफ्नो मालिक चिन्छ र गधाले आफ्नो मालिकको डूँड चिन्छ, तर इस्राएलले चिन्दैन र इस्राएलले बुझ्दैन ।”
An ox has known its owner, And a donkey the crib of its master, Israel has not known, My people have not understood.”
4 धिक्‍कार! पापी जाति, अधर्मले लादिएका मानिसहरू, खराब गर्नेहरूका सन्तानहरू, भ्रष्‍ट रूपले काम गर्नेहरूका सन्तानहरू! तिनीहरूले परमप्रभुलाई त्यागेका छन्, तिनीहरूले इस्राएलका परमपवित्रलाई घृणा गरेका छन्, तिनीहरूले आफैलाई उहाँबाट टाढा बनाएका छन् ।
Oh, sinning nation, a people heavy [with] iniquity, A seed of evildoers, sons—corrupters! They have forsaken YHWH, They have despised the Holy One of Israel, They have gone away backward.
5 तिमीहरूलाई अझै पनि किन पिटाइ खाँदैछौ? तिमीहरू किन झन् विद्रोह गर्छौ? सम्‍पुर्ण टाउको नै बिरामी छ र सम्‍पुर्ण हृदय नै कमजोर छ ।
Why are you struck anymore? You add apostasy! Every head has become diseased, and every heart [is] sick.
6 शिरदेखि पाउसम्म हानि नभएको कुनै अंग छैन । घाउहरू, चोटपटक र भर्खरका खुल्ला घाउहरू मात्र छन् । ती बन्द गरिएका, सफा गरिएका, पट्टि लगाइएका छैनन्, न त तेलले उपचार गरिएका छन् ।
From the sole of the foot—to the head, There is no soundness in it, Wound, and bruise, and fresh striking! They have not been closed nor bound, Nor have they softened with ointment.
7 तिमीहरूका देश विनाश भएको छ । तिमीहरूका सहरहरू भष्‍म पारिएका छन् । तिमीहरूका खेतहरू— नचिनेका मानिसहरूले तिमीहरूकै सामु ती नष्‍ट पारिरहेका छन्— उजाड पारेर छोडिएको छ, नचिनेका मानिसहरूले सर्वनाश पारेका छन् ।
Your land [is] a desolation, your cities burned with fire, Your ground—strangers are consuming it before you, And a desolation as overthrown by strangers!
8 सियोनकी छोरीलाई दाखबारीको कटेरोझैं, काँक्राबारीको छायाझैं र घेरा हालिएको सहरझैं त्यागिएको छ ।
And the daughter of Zion has been left, As a shelter in a vineyard, As a lodge in a place of cucumbers—as a city besieged.
9 सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभुले हाम्रा निम्‍ति थोरै बाँकी रहेका निम्ति नछोड्नुभएको भए, हामी सदोमझैं हुनेथियौं, हामी गमोराझैं हुनेथियौं।
Unless YHWH of Hosts had left a remnant to us, Shortly—we had been as Sodom, We had been like to Gomorrah!
10 ए सदोमका शासकहरू हो, परमप्रभुको वचन सुन । ए गमोराका मानिसहरू, हाम्रा परमेश्‍वरको व्यवस्था सुन ।
Hear the word of YHWH, you rulers of Sodom, Give ear to the Law of our God, you people of Gomorrah,
11 परमप्रभु भन्‍नुहुन्छ, “तिमीहरूका असंख्‍य बलिदानहरू मेरो निम्‍ति के नै हुन् र? थुमाहरूका होमबलि र मोटा पशुहरूका बोसो मसित प्रशस्‍त भएको छ । र साँढेहरू, थुमाहरू वा बोकाहरूका रगतमा म खुसी हुन्‍न ।
“Why the abundance of your sacrifices to Me?” says YHWH, “I have been satiated [with] burnt-offerings of rams, And fat of fatlings; And blood of bullocks, and lambs, And I have not desired male goats.
12 तिमीहरू मेरो सामु देखापर्न आउँदा, यसले मेरा चोकहरू कुल्चोस् भन्‍ने कसको इच्‍छा छ?
When you come to appear before Me, Who has required this of your hand, To trample My courts?
13 व्यार्थका बलिदानहरू ल्याउन छोड । धूप मेरो निम्ति घृणित कुरा हो । तिमीहरूका औंसी र सबाथका सभाहरू— यी दुष्‍ट सभाहरू म सहन सक्दिनँ ।
Do not add to bring in a vain present, Incense—it [is] an abomination to Me, New moon, and Sabbath, calling of convocation! Do not render iniquity—and a restraint!
14 तिमीहरूका औंसीहरू र तिमीहरूका तोकिएका चाडहरूलाई म घृणा गर्छु । ती मेरो निम्ति बोझ हुन् । ती बोहोरेर म थाकिसकेको छु ।
My soul has hated your new moons and your set seasons, They have been on Me for a burden, I have been weary of bearing.
15 त्यसैले तिमीहरूले प्रार्थनामा आफ्‍ना हातहरू फैलाउँदा, तिमीहरूबाट म आफ्‍ना आँखा लुकाउँछु । तिमीहरूले धेरै प्रार्थना चढाए तापनि, म सुन्‍नेछैन । तिमीहरूका हातहरू रगतले भरिएका छन् ।
And in your spreading forth your hands, I hide My eyes from you, Also when you increase prayer, I do not hear, Your hands have been full of blood.
16 नुहाओ र आफूलाई शुद्ध पार । मेरो दृष्‍टिबाट तिमीहरूका सबै दुष्‍ट कामहरू हटाओ । खराब हुन छोड ।
Wash yourselves, make yourselves pure, Turn aside the evil of your doings, from before My eyes, Cease to do evil, learn to do good.
17 असल गर्न सिक । न्याय खोज, थिचोमिचोमा परेकाहरूलाई छुटाओ, अनाथलाई न्याय देओ र विधवाको रक्षा गर ।”
Seek judgment, make the oppressed blessed, Judge the fatherless, strive [for] the widow.
18 परमप्रभु भन्‍नुहुन्छ, “अहिले आओ, हामी मिलेर छलफल गरौं । तिमीहरूका पापहरू बैजनी रङका भए तापनि, ती हिउँजस्‍तै सेता हुनेछन् । ती सिन्दुरे रङका भए तापनि ती ऊनजस्‍तै हुनेछन् ।
Now come, and we settle this,” says YHWH, “If your sins are as scarlet, they will be white as snow, If they are red as crimson, they will be as wool!
19 तिमीहरू आज्ञाकारी र इच्‍छुक भयौ भने, तिमीहरूले देशका असल कुरा खानेछौ,
If you are willing, and have listened, The good of the land you consume,
20 तर तिमीहरूले इन्कार गर्‍यौ र विद्रोह गर्‍यौ भने, तरवारले तिमीहरूलाई विनाश पार्नेछ” किनकि परमप्रभुको मुखले यसो भन्‍नुभएको छ ।
And if you refuse, and have rebelled, You are consumed [by] the sword,” For the mouth of YHWH has spoken.
21 विश्‍वासयोग्‍य सहर कसरी वेश्या भएको छ! त्यो न्यायले पुर्ण थियो— त्यो धर्मिकताले भरिपुर्ण थियो, तर अहिले त्यो हत्याराहरूले भरिएको छ ।
How has a faithful city become a harlot? I have filled it [with] judgment, Righteousness lodges in it—now murderers.
22 तिमीहरूका चाँदी अशुद्ध भएको छ, तिमीहरूका दाखमद्य पानी मिसाइएको छ ।
Your silver has become dross, Your drink defiled with water.
23 तिमीहरूका शासकहरू विद्रोहीहरू र चोरका साथीहरू हुन् । हरेकले घुसलाई प्रेम गर्छ र उपहारको पछि भाग्‍छन् । तिनीहरूले अनाथहरू रक्षा गर्दैनन्, न त न्‍यायको लागि विधवाको बिन्ति नै तिनीहरूका सामु आउँछन् ।
Your princes [are] apostates, and companions of thieves, Everyone loving a bribe, and pursuing rewards, They do not judge the fatherless, And the plea of the widow does not come to them.
24 यसकारण सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभु, इस्राएलका शक्तिशाली परमपवित्रको घोषणा यो हो, “तिनीहरूलाई धिक्‍कार! आफ्‍ना विरोधीहरूसँग बदला म लिनेछु र आफ्‍ना शत्रुहरूसँग म टो फेर्नेछु ।
Therefore—a declaration of the Lord—YHWH of Hosts, the Mighty One of Israel: “Oh, I relieve Myself from My adversaries, And avenge Myself against My enemies,
25 म आफ्‍ना हात तिमीहरूका विरुद्ध उठाउनेछु, अशुद्ध मिश्रण हटाएझैं तिमीहरूका मैला शुद्ध पार्नेछु र तिमीहरूका सबै मैलाहरू हटाउनेछु ।
And I turn back My hand on you, And I refine your dross as purity, And I turn aside all your tin,
26 म तिमीहरूका न्यायकर्ताहरूलाई पहिलेको झैं र तिमीहरूका सल्‍लाहकारहरूलाई सुरुको झैं पुनर्स्थापना गर्ने छु । त्यसपछि तिमीहरू धार्मिकताको सहर र विश्‍वासयोग्य नगर भनिनेछौ ।”
And I give back your judges as at the first, And your counselors as in the beginning, After this you are called, A city of righteousness—a faithful city.”
27 सियोनलाई न्यायले उद्धार गर्नेछ र त्यसमा भएका पश्‍चतापीहरूलाई धार्मिकताले नै उद्धार गर्नेछ ।
Zion is redeemed in judgment, And her captivity in righteousness.
28 विद्रोहीहरू र पापीहरू एकसाथ धूलो पारिनेछन् र परमप्रभुलाई त्याग्‍नेहरू नष्‍ट हुनेछन् ।
And the destruction of transgressors and sinners [is] together, And those forsaking YHWH are consumed.
29 किनभने तिमीहरूले इच्‍छा गरेका फँलाटका पवित्र रूखहरूसित तिमीहरू लज्‍जित हुनेछौ र तिमीहरूले चुनेका बगैंचाद्वारा नै तिमीहरू हतासमा पर्नेछौ ।
For [men] are ashamed because of the oaks That you have desired, And you are confounded because of the gardens That you have chosen.
30 किनभने तिमीहरू पातहरू ओइलाउने फलाँटजस्ता र पानी नभएको बगैंचाजस्ता हुनेछौ ।
For you are as an oak whose leaf is fading, And as a garden that has no water.
31 बलिया मानिसहरू चाँडै जल्ने सामग्रीजस्ता र उसको काम एउटा झिल्कोजस्तो हुनेछन् । ती दुवै एकसाथ जल्‍नेछन् र कसैले पनि ती निभाउनेछैन ।”
And the strong has been for tow, And his work for a spark, And both of them have burned together, And there is none quenching!
