1 यरूशलेमका राजाहरू योताम, आहाज, र हिजकियाको समयमा मोरेशेतका निवासी मीकाकहाँ परमप्रभुको यस्तो वचन आयो, जुन उनले सामरिया र यरूशलेमको विषयमा देखेका थिए ।
And the word of the Lord came to Michaeas the son of Morasthi, in the days of Joatham, and Achaz, and Ezekias, kings of Juda, concerning what he saw regarding Samaria and Jerusalem.
2 सारा जातिका मानिस, यो सुन । पृथ्वी र त्यसमा भएका सबैले यो सुन । परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर उहाँको पवित्र मन्दिरबाट तिमीहरूका विरुद्ध गवाही बनून् ।
Hear [these] words, you people; and let the earth give heed, and all that are in it: and the Lord God shall be among you for a testimony, the Lord out of his holy habitation.
3 हेर, परमप्रभु आफ्नो वासस्थानबाट बाहिर आउनुहुन्छ; उहाँ तल आउनुहुनेछ र पृथ्वीका उच्‍च स्थानहरूमा आफ्नो पाउ राख्‍नुहुनेछ ।
For, behold, the Lord comes forth out of his place, and will come down, and will go upon the high places of the earth.
4 मैन आगोको सामु पग्‍लिएझैँ, र भिरालो ठाउँबाट पानी बगेझैँ उहाँको चरणमुनि हिमालहरू पग्‍लन्‍छन्, र उपत्यकाहरू टुक्रिन्‍छन् ।
And the mountains shall be shaken under him, and the valleys shall melt like wax before the fire, and as water rushing down a declivity.
5 यो सबै याकूबको अपराध र इस्राएलको घरनाका पापको कारणले भएको हो । याकूबको अपराध के हो? के त्यो सामरिया होइन? यहूदाको उच्‍च स्थान के हो? के त्यो यरूशलेम होइन?
All these [calamities are] for the transgression of Jacob, and for the sin of the house of Israel. What is the transgression of Jacob? [is it] not Samaria? and what is the sin of the house of Juda? [is it] not Jerusalem?
6 “म सामरियालाई भग्‍नावशेषको थुप्रो, र दाखबारी लगाउने स्थान बनाइदिनेछु, र म त्यसका ढुङ्गाहरूलाई तल उपत्यकामा फ्याँकिदिनेछु र म त्यसका जगहरूलाई नाङ्गा बनाइदिनेछु ।
Therefore I will make Samaria [as] a store-house of the fruits of the field, and [as] a planting of a vineyard: and I will utterly demolish her stones, and I will expose her foundations.
7 त्यसका सबै हातले बनाइएका चिजहरू टुक्रा-टुक्रा पारिनेछन्, र त्यसले पाएका सबै उपहारहरूलाई आगोद्धारा जलाइनेछ, र त्यसका सबै मुर्तिहरूलाई म नष्‍ट गर्नेछु । त्यसले आफ्ना उपहारहरू वेश्याको ज्यालाबाट संचय गरेको हुनाले, ती फेरि वेश्याकै ज्याला बन्‍नेछन् ।”
And they shall cut in pieces all the graven images, and all that she has hired they shall burn with fire, and I will utterly destroy all her idols: because she has gathered of the hires of fornication, and of the hires of fornication has she amassed [wealth].
8 यसैकारण म विलाप गर्नेछु र रुनेछु; म खाली खुट्टा र नाङ्गै जानेछु । म स्यालहरूझैँ चिच्‍याउनेछु र लाटोकोसेरोझैँ शोक गर्नेछु ।
Therefore shall she lament and wail, she shall go barefooted, and [being] naked she shall make lamentation as [that] of serpents, and mourning as of the daughters of sirens.
9 किनभने त्यसको घाउ निको हुँदैन, किनकि त्यो यहूदासम्म आएको छ । त्यो मेरा मानिसको प्रवेशद्धार, अर्थात् यरूशलेम पुगिसकेको छ ।
For her plague has become grievous; for it has come even to Juda; and has reached to the gate of my people, even to Jerusalem.
10 गातमा यस विषयमा केही नबताओ, रुँदै नरोओ । बेथ-ओप्रामा म आफैँ धुलोमा लत्‍पतिन्छु ।
You that are in Geth, exalt not yourselves, and you Enakim, do not rebuild from [the ruins of] the house in derision: sprinkle dust [in the place of] your laughter.
11 शाफीरका निवासीहरू, नग्‍नता र शर्ममा हिँड । सानानका निवासीहरू बाहिर ननिस्‍क । बेथ एजेल विलाप गर्दछ, किनकि तिनीहरूको सुरक्षा-स्थान खोसिएको छ ।
The inhabitant of Sennaar, fairly inhabiting her cities, came not forth to mourn for the house next to her: she shall receive of you the stroke of grief.
12 किनभने मरोतका निवासीहरू असल समाचारको निम्ति व्याकुल भएर पर्खन्छन्, किनभने परमप्रभुबाट यरूशलेमका प्रवेशद्धारहरुमा विनाश आएको छ ।
Who has begun [to act] for good to her that dwells in sorrow? for calamities have come down from the Lord upon the gates of Jerusalem,
13 लाकीशका निवासीहरू, रथलाई घोडाहरूका समुहमा बाँध । ए लाकीश, सियोनकी छोरीको निम्ति तँ नै पापको सुरुवात थिइस्, किनकि तँमा नै इस्राएलका अपराधहरू भेटिएका थिए ।
[even] a sound of chariots and horsemen: the inhabitants of Lachis, she is the leader of sin to the daughter of Sion: for in you were found the transgressions of Israel.
14 यसैकारण तिमीहरूले मोरेशेत-गातलाई बिदाईको उपहार दिनेछौ । अक्‍जीबको नगरले इस्राएलका राजाहरूलाई निराश बनाउनेछन् ।
Therefore shall he cause men to be sent forth as far as the inheritance of Geth, [even] vain houses; they are become vanity to the kings of Israel;
15 मारेशाका निवासीहरू, म तिमीहरूको विरुद्धमा एउटा विजेता ल्याउनेछु । इस्राएलको वैभव अदुल्‍लाममा आउनेछ ।
until they bring the heirs, O inhabitant of Lachis: the inheritance shall reach to Odollam, [even] the glory of the daughter of Israel.
16 तिमीहरू हर्षित हुने आफ्ना छोराछोरीहरूका निम्ति आफ्नो केश खौर । आफैँलाई गिद्धझैँ तालुखुइले बनाओ, किनभने तिमीहरूका छोराछोरीहरू तिमीहरूबाट टाढा निर्वासनमा जानेछन् ।
Shave your hair, and make yourself bald for your delicate children; increase your widowhood as an eagle; for [your people] are gone into captivity from you.
