योएल 2
1 सियोनमा तुरही फुक, र मेरो पवित्र पर्वतमा चेतावनी ध्वनि बजाओ! देशका सबै बासिन्दाहरू डरले थरथर होऊन्, किनकि परमप्रभुको दिन आउँदैछ, वास्तवमा, त्यो नजिकै छ ।
Blow the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm on my holy mountain. Let all the inhabitants of the land tremble, for the day of the LORD is coming, for it is near.
2 यो अन्धकार र उदासको दिन हो, बादलहरू र बाक्लो अन्धकारको दिन हो । जसरी पर्वतहरूमा झिसमिसे बिहानी फैलिन्छ, त्यसरी नै एउटा ठुलो र शक्तिशाली सेना नजिक आउँदैछ । त्यस्तो सेना पहिले कहिल्यै थिएन, अनि पुस्तौं-पुस्ता पछिसम्म पनि, त्यहाँ त्यस्तो फेरि कहिल्यै हुनेछैन ।
A day of darkness and gloominess, a day of clouds and thick darkness. As blackness spreading on the mountains a great and powerful people; there has never been the like, neither will there be any more after them, even after the years of many generations.
3 त्यसको अगाडिका सबै कुरालाई आगोले भष्म पार्दैछ, र त्यसको पछाडि आगोको ज्वाला बलिरहेको छ । त्यसको अगाडिको देश अदनको बगैंचाजस्तो छ, तर त्यसको पछाडि एउटा नाश भएको उजाड-स्थान छ । त्यसबाट कुनै कुरा फुत्कनेछैन ।
A fire devours before them, and behind them, a flame burns. The land is as the garden of Eden before them, and behind them, a desolate wilderness. Yes, and no one has escaped them.
4 त्यो सेना घोडाहरूझैं देखा पर्छ, र तिनीहरू घोडचढीहरूझैं दौडन्छन् ।
The appearance of them is as the appearance of horses, and as horsemen, so do they run.
5 पर्वतहरूका टाकुराहरूमा रथहरूले गरेझैं, झिंजाहरू भस्म पार्ने भयङ्कर ज्वालाको आवाजझैं, युद्धको निम्ति तयार भएको शक्तिशाली सेनाझैं, आवाज गरेर तिनीहरू उफ्रन्छन् ।
Like the noise of chariots on the tops of the mountains do they leap, like the noise of a flame of fire that devours the stubble, as a mighty people drawn up for battle.
6 तिनीहरूको उपस्थितिले मानिसहरू वेदनामा पर्छन्, अनि तिनीहरूका सम्पूर्ण अनुहार पहेंलो हुन्छ ।
At their presence the peoples are in anguish. All faces have grown pale.
7 शक्तिशाली लडाकुहरूझैं तिनीहरू दौडन्छन्, सेनाहरूझैं तिनीहरू पर्खालहरूमा चढ्छन्, तिनीहरू हरेक व्यक्ति पङ्तिवद्ध भएर हिंड्छन्, र आफ्नो पङ्तिलाई बिगार्दैनन् ।
They run like mighty men. They climb the wall like warriors. They each march in his line, and they do not swerve off course.
8 न त एउटाले अर्कालाई धक्का दिन्छन् । तिनीहरू प्रत्येक नै आ-आफ्नै बाटोमा हिंड्छन् । तिनीहरू सुरक्षाबलहरूलाई तोड्दै अघि बढ्छन्, र आफ्नो लाइनभन्दा बाहिर पुग्दैनन् ।
Neither does one jostle another; they march everyone in his path, and they burst through the defenses, and do not break ranks.
9 तिनीहरूले सहरलाई आक्रमण गर्छन्, तिनीहरू पर्खालमा दौडन्छन्, तिनीहरू घरहरूमाथि चढ्छन्, र चोरहरूझैं तिनीहरू झ्यालहरूबाट भित्र जान्छन् ।
They rush on the city. They run on the wall. They climb up into the houses. They enter in at the windows like thieves.
10 तिनीहरूको अगि पृथ्वी काम्छ, आकाश थरथर हुन्छ, सूर्य र चन्द्रमा अँध्यारो हुन्छन्, अनि ताराहरू चम्कन छोड्छन् ।
The earth quakes before them. The heavens tremble. The sun and the moon are darkened, and the stars withdraw their shining.
11 परमप्रभुले आफ्नो सेनाको सामु ठुलो सोरले कराउनुहुन्छ, किनकि उहाँका योद्धाहरू असङ्ख्य छन्, किनकि उहाँका आज्ञा पालन गर्नेहरू, ती बलिया छन् । किनकि परमप्रभुको दिन महान् र अत्यन्तै भयानक हुन्छ । त्यसबाट को बाँच्न सक्छ र?
The LORD thunders his voice before his army; for his forces are very great; for he is strong who obeys his command; for the day of the LORD is great and very awesome, and who can endure it?
12 परमप्रभु भन्नुहुन्छ “अहिले पनि, आफ्ना सारा हृदयले मकाहाँ फर्क । उपवास बस, रोओ, र विलाप गर ।”
"Yet even now," says the LORD, "turn to me with all your heart, and with fasting, and with weeping, and with mourning."
13 आफ्ना लुगामात्र होइन तर आफ्ना हृदय पनि धुजाधुजा पार, र परमप्रभु आफ्ना परमेश्वरकाहाँ फर्क । किनकि उहाँ अनुग्रही र कृपापूर्ण, रिसाउनमा ढिला र करारको विश्वसततामा प्रशस्त हुनुहुन्छ, र दण्डको पिडा दिनबाट उहाँ पर्कन चाहनुहुन्न ।
Tear your heart, and not your garments, and turn to the LORD, your God; for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and abundant in loving kindness, and relents from sending calamity.
14 कसले जान्दछ? सायद उहाँ पर्कनुहुन्छ, र दया देखाउनुहुन्छ, र आफ्नो पछि आशिष् छोड्नुहुन्छ, तिमीहरूका परमप्रभु परमेश्वरका निम्ति अन्नबलि र अर्घबलि दिनुहुन्छ कि?
Who knows? He may turn and relent, and leave a blessing behind him, even a meal offering and a drink offering to the LORD, your God.
15 सियोनमा तुरही फुक, पवित्र उपवासको आव्हान गर, र पवित्र सभा बोलाओ ।
Blow the trumpet in Zion. Sanctify a fast. Call a solemn assembly.
16 मानिसहरूलाई भेला गराओ, पवित्र सभा बोलाओ । धर्मगुरुहरूलाई भेला गर, बालबालिका र दूधे बालकहरूलाई भेला गराओ । दुलहाहरू आफ्ना कोठाहरूबाट बाहिर आऊन्, अनि दुलहीहरू आफ्ना सृङ्गारका कोठाहरूबाट बाहिर आऊन् ।
Gather the people. Sanctify the assembly. Assemble the elders. Gather the children, and those who suck the breasts. Let the bridegroom go forth from his room, and the bride out of her chamber.
17 पुजारीहरू, परमप्रभुका सेवकहरू, दलान र वेदीको बिचमा रोऊन् । तिनीहरूले यसो भनून्, “हे परमप्रभु, आफ्ना मानिसहरू बाँकी राख्नुहोस्, र आफ्नो उत्तराधिकारलाई घृणाको पात्र बन्न नदिनुहोस्, र जातिहरूले तिनीहरूको गिल्ला नगरून् । तिनीहरूले जातिहरूका बिचमा यस्तो किन भन्नू, ‘तिनीहरूका परमेश्वर कहाँ छ?’”
Let the priests, the ministers of the LORD, weep between the porch and the altar, and let them say, "Spare your people, LORD, and do not give your heritage to mockery, a byword among the nations. Why should they say among the peoples, 'Where is their God?'"
18 आफ्नो देशको निम्ति परमप्रभु डाही हुनुभयो र आफ्ना मानिसहरूलाई दया देखाउनुभयो ।
Then the LORD was jealous for his land, And had pity on his people.
19 परमप्रभुले आफ्ना मानिसहरूलाई जवाफ दिनुभयो, “हेर, म तिमीहरूका निम्ति अन्न, नयाँ दाखमद्य, र तेल पठाउनेछु । ती कुराहरूले तिमीहरू सन्तुष्ट हुनेछौ, र तिमीहरूलाई फेरि म जातिहरूका बिचमा अपमानित तुल्याउनेछैनँ ।
The LORD answered his people, "Look, I will send you grain, new wine, and oil, and you will eat and you will be satisfied with them; and I will no more make you a reproach among the nations.
20 उत्तरबाट आक्रमण गर्नेहरूलाई म तिमीहरूबाट टाढा हटाइदिनेछु, र तिनीहरूलाई एउटा सुक्खा र त्यागिएको देशमा लखेटिदिनेछु । तिनीहरूको सेनाको अग्रपङ्क्ति पूर्वीय समुद्रमा, अनि पछिल्लो पङ्क्तिचाहिं पश्चिमी समुद्रमा जानेछ । त्यसको दुर्गन्ध माथि उठ्नेछ, त्यसको सडेको दुर्गन्ध माथि उठ्नेछ ।” निश्चय नै उहाँले महान् काम गर्नुभएको छ ।
But I will remove the northern army far away from you, and will drive it into a barren and desolate land, its front into the eastern sea, and its back into the western sea; and its stench will come up, and its bad smell will rise." Surely he has done great things.
21 ए देश, नडरा, रमाहट गर र आनन्दित हो, किनकि परमप्रभुले महान् काम गर्नुहुनेछ ।
Land, do not be afraid. Be glad and rejoice, for the LORD has done great things.
22 ए मैदानका पशुहरू हो, नडराओ, किनकि उजाड-स्थानका खर्कहरूमा पलाउनेछन्, र बोटहरूले आफ्ना फलहरू दिनेछन्, र नेभाराका बोटहरू र दाखका बोटहरूले आ-आफ्ना फसल पुरा रूपमा दिनेछन् ।
Do not be afraid, you animals of the field; for the pastures of the wilderness spring up, for the tree bears its fruit. The fig tree and the vine yield their strength.
23 ए सियोनका मानिस हो, खुशी होओ, आफ्ना परमप्रभु परमेश्वरमा आनन्दित होओ । किनकि उहाँले ठिक समयमा चाँडै शरदको वर्षा दिनुहुनेछ, र तिमीहरूका निम्ति झरी पार्नुहुनेछ, पहिलेझैं नै शरद् र बसन्तका दुवै झरी हुनेछन् ।
"Be glad then, you people of Zion, and rejoice in the LORD, your God; for he gives you the former rain in just measure, and he causes the rain to come down for you, the former rain and the latter rain, as before.
24 खलाहरू गहुँले भरिनेछन्, र घ्याम्पोहरू नयाँ दाखमद्य र तेलले भरिएर पोखिनेछन् ।
The threshing floors will be full of wheat, and the vats will overflow with new wine and oil.
25 “बथानमा हिंड्ने सलहले— ठुला सलह, सखाप पार्ने सलह र नाश गर्ने सलहले — मैले तिमीहरूका बिचमा पठाएको मेरो शक्तिशाली सेनाले, वर्षौंदेखि खाएको बालीको म तिमीहरूलाई क्षतिपुर्ति दिनेछु ।
I will restore to you the years that the swarming locust has eaten, the great locust, the grasshopper, and the caterpillar, my great army, which I sent among you.
26 तिमीहरू प्रशस्त गरी खानेछौ र भरपेट हुनेछौ, र आफ्ना परमप्रभु परमेश्वरको नाउँको प्रशंसा गर्नेछौ, जसले तिमीहरूका बिचमा अचम्मका काम गर्नुएको छ, र म कहिल्यै आफ्ना मानिसहरूमा जाल ल्याउनेछैनँ ।
You will have plenty to eat, and be satisfied, and will praise the name of the LORD, your God, who has dealt wondrously with you; and my people will never be put to shame.
27 म इस्राएलको बिचमा छु भनी तिमीहरूले जान्नेछौ, र म नै परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्वर हुँ, र त्यहाँ अर्को कोही पनि छैन, र म कहिल्यै आफ्ना मानिसहरूमा लाज ल्याउनेछैनँ ।
You will know that I am in the midst of Israel, and that I am the LORD, your God, and there is no one else; and my people will never be put to shame.
28 केही समयपछि सबै मानिसमाथि, म आफ्नो आत्मा खन्याउनेछु, र तिमीहरूका छोराहरू र छोरीहरूले अगमवाणी बोल्नेछन् । तिमीहरूका वृद्ध मानिसहरूले सपनाहरू देख्नेछन्, र तिमीहरूका जवान मानिसहरूले दर्शनहरू देख्नेछन् ।
"And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my Spirit on all flesh; and your sons and your daughters will prophesy, and your old men will dream dreams, and your young men will see visions.
29 साथै ती दिनहरूमा दासहरू र दासीहरूमा, म आफ्नो आत्माबाट खन्याउनेछु ।
And also on my servants, both men and women, I will pour out my Spirit in those days.
30 आकाश र पृथ्वीमा अचम्मका कामहरू, रगत, आगो, र धूँवाका मुस्लाहरू म देखाउनेछु ।
And I will show wonders in the heavens and in the earth: blood, fire, and pillars of smoke.
31 परमप्रभुको त्यो महान् र भयानक दिन आउनुअघि, सूर्य अन्धकारमा अनि चन्द्रमा रगतमा परिवर्तन हुनेछ ।
The sun will be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and awesome day of the LORD comes.
32 परमप्रभुको नाउँ पुकार्ने हरेक व्यक्ति बचाइनेछ । किनकि जस्तो परमप्रभुले भन्नुभएको छ, सियोन पर्वतमा र यरूशलेममा छुटकारा पाएका मानिसहरू हुनेछन्, जसलाई परमप्रभुले बोलाउनुहुन्छ ।
And it will happen that whoever will call on the name of the LORD shall be saved; for in Mount Zion and in Jerusalem there will be those who escape, as the LORD has said, and among the remnant, those whom the LORD calls.
