योएल 1
1 पतुएलका छोरा योएलकहाँ आएको परमप्रभु वचन यही हो ।
A word of YHWH that has been to Joel, son of Pethuel:
2 ए धर्मगुरुहरू हो, यो कुरा सुन, र ए देशका सबै बासिन्दाहरू हो ध्यानसँग सुन । तिमीहरूका दिनमा वा तिमीहरूका पुर्खाहरूका दिनमा कहिल्यै यस्तो भएको छ?
Hear this, you aged ones, And give ear, all you inhabitants of the land, Has this been in your days? Or in the days of your fathers?
3 यसको विषयमा आफ्ना छोराछोरीलाई भन, र तिमीहरूका छोराछोरीले आफ्ना छोराछोरीलाई भनून्, र तिनीहरूका छोराछोरीले अर्को पुस्तालाई भनून् ।
Concerning it talk to your sons, And your sons to their sons, And their sons to another generation.
4 बथानमा हिंड्ने सलहहरूले जे बाँकी छोडेका छन्, ती ठुला सलहले खाएका छन्, ठुला सलहले जे बाँकी छोडेका छन् ती फट्याङ्ग्राले खाएका छन्, र फट्याङ्ग्राले जे बाँकी छोडेका छन् ती झुसिल्किराले खाएका छन् ।
What is left of the palmer-worm, the locust has eaten, And what is left of the locust, The cankerworm has eaten, And what is left of the cankerworm, The caterpillar has eaten.
5 ए मद्यले मातेकाहरू हो, उठ र रोओ! ए दाखमद्य पिउनेहरू, सबै विलाप गर, किनभने मिठो दाखमद्यलाई तिमीहरूबाट खोसिएको छ ।
Awake, you drunkards, and weep, And howl all drinking wine, because of the juice, For it has been cut off from your mouth.
6 किनकि मेरो देशमा एउटा जाति आएको छ, बलियो र अनगिन्ती छ । त्यसका दाँत सिंहका दाँतझैं छन्, र त्यसका दाह्रा सिंहनीका झैं छन् ।
For a nation has come up on My land, Strong, and there is no number, Its teeth [are] the teeth of a lion, And it has the jaw-teeth of a lioness.
7 त्यसले मेरो दाखबारीलाई उजाड ठाउँ बनाएको छ र मेरो नेभाराका बोटलाई लाछेर नाङ्गो पारेको छ । त्यसका बोक्राहरू त्यसले ताछेको छ र टाढा फालेको छ, र हाँगाहरू केवल सेता मात्र छन् ।
It has made My vine become a desolation, And My fig tree become a splinter, It has made it thoroughly bare, and has cast down, Its branches have been made white.
8 आफ्नो भर्खरको पतिको मृत्यु भएर भाङ्ग्रा लगाएकी कन्या केटीले झैं विलाप गर ।
Wail, as a virgin girds with sackcloth, For the husband of her youth.
9 परमप्रभुको मन्दिरबाट अन्नबलि र अर्घबलि हटाइएका छन् । परमप्रभुको सेवा गर्ने पुजारीहरू विलाप गर्छन् ।
Present and drink-offering have been cut off from the house of YHWH, The priests have mourned, servants of YHWH.
10 खेतहरू सखाप पारिएका छन्, र अन्नहरू नष्ट पारिएका हुनाले भूमिले विलाप गर्दैछ । नयाँ दाखमद्य सुकेको छ, तेल बाँकी छैन ।
The field is spoiled, The ground has mourned, For the grain is spoiled, New wine has been dried up, oil languishes.
11 ए किसानहरू हो, लज्जित होओ, र दाखबारी लगाउनेहरू हो, विलाप गर । किनभने भूमिको उब्जनी नष्ट भएको छ । गहुँ र जौका बढिरहेका छैनन् ।
Be ashamed, you farmers, Howl, vinedressers, for wheat and for barley, For the harvest of the field has perished.
12 दाखका बोटहरू ओइलाएका छन् र नेभाराका बोटहरू सुकेका छन्, र अनार बोटहरू, खजूर बोटहरू र स्याउको बोटहरू, खेतबारीका सबै बोटहरू ओइलाएका छन् । किनभने मानवजातिका सन्तानबाट आनन्द विलाएर गएको छ ।
The vine has been dried up, And the fig tree languishes, Pomegranate, also palm, and apple-tree, All trees of the field have withered, For joy has been dried up from the sons of men.
13 ए पुजारीहरू हो, भाङ्ग्रा लगाओ र विलाप गर! वेदीमा सेवा गर्नेहरू हो, विलाप गर । ए मेरा परमेश्वरका सेवा गर्नेहरू हो, आओ, र रातभर भाङ्ग्रा लगाएर बस । किनभने तिमीहरूका परमेश्वरको मन्दिरबाट अन्नबलि र अर्घबलि हटाइएका छन् ।
Gird, and lament, you priests, Howl, you servants of the altar, Come in, lodge in sackcloth, servants of my God, For present and drink-offering have been withheld from the house of your God.
14 पवित्र उपवासको घोषणा गर, र पवित्र सभा आव्हान गर । परमप्रभु आफ्ना परमेश्वरको मन्दिरमा देशका सबै धर्मगुरुहरू र बासिन्दाहरूलाई भेला गराओ र, अनि परमप्रभुमा पुकार ।
Sanctify a fast, proclaim a restraint, Gather [the] elderly [and] all those inhabiting the land, [Into the] house of your God YHWH,
15 हाय! त्यो दिन, किनकि परमप्रभुको दिन नजिकै छ । त्योसँगै सर्वशक्तिमान्बाट विनाश आउनेछ ।
And cry to YHWH, “Aah! For the day! For [the] Day of YHWH [is] near, And it comes as destruction from [the] Almighty.
16 के हाम्रै आँखाका सामु खानेकुरा, अनि हाम्रा परमेश्वरको मन्दिरबाट आनन्द र रमाहट रोकिएको छैन र?
Is food not cut off before our eyes? Joy and rejoicing from the house of our God?
17 माटोका डल्लामुनि बीउहरू सडे, भण्डारहरू उजाड भए, र अन्नका भकारीहरू भत्काइए, किनकि अन्न सुकेको छ ।
Scattered things have rotted under their clods, Storehouses have been desolated, Granaries have been broken down, For the grain has withered.
18 पशुहरू कसरी विलाप् गर्छन्! पाल्तु पशुका बथानहरूले कष्ट भोग्दैछन्, किनकि तिनीहरूका निम्ति खर्क छैन । साथै, भेडाका बगालहरू पनि कष्ट भोग्दैछन् ।
How livestock have sighed! Perplexed have been droves of oxen, For there is no pasture for them, Also droves of sheep have been desolated.
19 हे परमप्रभु, म तपाईंमा पुकारा गर्दछु । किनकि उजाड-स्थानका खर्कहरूलाई आगोले भस्म पारेका छ, र खेतका सबै रूखहरूलाई आगोले जलाएको छ ।
To You, O YHWH, I call, For fire has consumed lovely places of a wilderness, And a flame has set on fire all trees of the field.
20 जमिनका पशुहरू पनि तपाईंका निम्ति तड्पिन्छन्, किनकि पानीका खोलाहरू सुकेका छन्, र उजाड-स्थानका खर्कहरूलाई आगोले भस्म पारेको छ ।
Also the livestock of the field long for You, For dried up have been streams of water, And fire has consumed lovely places of a wilderness!”
