मिका 7
1 हाय म! म ग्रीष्म ऋतुमा बटुलिएको फलझैँ भएको छु, र रस निकालिएको दाखझैँ भएको छु । त्यहाँ खानलाई दाखको झुप्पा छैन, र मेरो प्राणले इच्छा गरेकोजस्तो पहिले नै पाकेको अन्जीर पनि छैन ।
Woe is me! for I am as when they have gathered the summer fruits, as the grape gleanings of the vintage: there is no cluster to eat: my soul desired the first ripe fruit.
2 भुमिबाट विश्वसनीय मानिसहरू बिलिन भएका छन् । सारा मानवजातिमा कोही सोझो मानिस छैन । तिनीहरू सबै रक्तपातको निम्ति पर्खिरहन्छन् । हरेकले आफ्नो दाजुभाइलाई जालले शिकार गर्दछ ।
The good man is perished out of the earth: and there is none upright among men: they all lie in wait for blood; they hunt every man his brother with a net.
3 तिनीहरूका हातहरू हानी गर्नलाई पोक्त छन् । शासकले पैसा माग्दछन्, न्यायकर्ता घूस लिनको निम्ति तयार छन्, र शक्तिशाली मानिसले आफूले प्राप्त गर्न चाहेको कुरा अरूहरूसँग माग्दछ । यसरी तिनीहरू एकसाथ षड्यन्त्र रच्छन् ।
That they may do evil with both hands earnestly, the prince asks, and the judge asks for a reward; and the great man, he utters his mischievous desire: so they wrap it up.
4 तिनीहरूमध्येको उत्कृष्टचाहिँ काँडाझैँ छ, सबैभन्दा सोझोचाहिँ काँडाको झाँगभन्दा पनि खराब छ । तिमीहरूका पहरेदारहरूले पहिले नै बताएको दिन, तिमीहरूको दण्डको दिन यही हो । अब यो तिनीहरूको भ्रमको समय हो ।
The best of them is as a brier: the most upright is sharper than a thorn hedge: the day of your watchmen and your visitation comes; now shall be their perplexity.
5 कुनै पनि छिमेकीमाथि विश्वास नगर्नू । कुनै साथिमाथि भरोसा नगर्नू । तिम्रा अङ्गालोमा बस्ने स्त्रीसँग पनि होसियारसँग बोल्नू ।
Trust you not in a friend, put you not confidence in a guide: keep the doors of your mouth from her that lies in your bosom.
6 किनभने छोरोले आफ्ना बुबाको अनादर गर्दछ, छोरी आफ्नी आमाको विरुद्धमा उठ्छे, र बुहारी सासूको विरुद्ध । मानिसको शत्रु आफ्नै घरका मानिसहरू हुन् ।
For the son dishonors the father, the daughter rises up against her mother, the daughter in law against her mother in law; a man’s enemies are the men of his own house.
7 तर मचाहिँ परमप्रभुतर्फ आँखा लगाउँछु । म मेरो मुक्तिको परमेश्वरको पर्खाइमा छु, मेरा परमेश्वरले मलाई सुन्नुहुन्छ ।
Therefore I will look to the LORD; I will wait for the God of my salvation: my God will hear me.
8 ए मेरो शत्रु, मलाई देखेर रमाहट नगर् । म लडेपछि, फेरि उठ्नेछु । जब म अन्धकारमा बस्दछु, परमप्रभु मेरो निम्ति ज्योति हुनुहुनेछ ।
Rejoice not against me, O my enemy: when I fall, I shall arise; when I sit in darkness, the LORD shall be a light to me.
9 मैले परमप्रभुको विरुद्ध पाप गरेको कारणले, उहाँले मेरो विषयमा वकालत नगर्नुभएसम्म, र मेरो निम्ति इन्साफ नगर्नुभएसम्म मैले उहाँको क्रोध सहनेछु ।
I will bear the indignation of the LORD, because I have sinned against him, until he plead my cause, and execute judgment for me: he will bring me forth to the light, and I shall behold his righteousness.
10 अनि मेरो शत्रुले त्यो देख्नेछ, र “परमप्रभु तेरो परमेश्वर कहाँ छ?” भनेर भन्नेलाई शर्मले ढाक्नेछ । मेरा आँखाले त्यसलाई हेर्नेछन् । सडकहरूका माटोझैँ त्यो कुल्चिनेछे ।
Then she that is my enemy shall see it, and shame shall cover her which said to me, Where is the LORD your God? my eyes shall behold her: now shall she be trodden down as the mire of the streets.
11 तिमीहरूका पर्खालहरू निर्माण गर्ने दिन आउनेछ । त्यस दिनमा सिमानाहरू टाढा-टाढासम्म विस्तार हुनेछन् ।
In the day that your walls are to be built, in that day shall the decree be far removed.
12 त्यस दिन अश्शूर र मिश्रका शहरहरुबाट, मिश्रदेखि यूफ्रेटिस नदीसम्म, समुद्रदेखि समुद्रसम्म, र पर्वतदेखि पर्वतसम्म मानिसहरू तिमीहरूकहाँ आउनेछन् ।
In that day also he shall come even to you from Assyria, and from the fortified cities, and from the fortress even to the river, and from sea to sea, and from mountain to mountain.
13 तर भुमि भने त्यसमा बसोबास गर्ने मानिसहरूका कारण, र तिनीहरूका कामका प्रतिफलको कारण उजाड हुनेछ ।
Notwithstanding the land shall be desolate because of them that dwell therein, for the fruit of their doings.
14 आफ्ना मानिसहरू, अर्थात् तपाईंका उत्तराधिकारको बगाललाई आफ्नो छडीले नियन्त्रण गर्नुहोस् । तिनीहरू एक्लै खर्कको बिचमा, र जङ्गलमा बस्छन् । पुराना दिनहरूमा झैँ तिनीहरूलाई बाशान र गिलादमा चर्न दिनुहोस् ।
Feed your people with your rod, the flock of your heritage, which dwell solitarily in the wood, in the middle of Carmel: let them feed in Bashan and Gilead, as in the days of old.
15 मिश्रको भुमिबाट तिमीहरू बाहिर आएका दिनमा झैँ, म तिनीहरूलाई आश्चर्य कामहरू देखाउनेछु ।
According to the days of your coming out of the land of Egypt will I show to him marvelous things.
16 जाति-जातिहरूले यो देख्नेछन् र आफ्ना शक्तिमाथि लज्जित हुनेछन् । तिनीहरूले केही बोल्नेछैनन्, र तिनीहरू बहिरा हुनेछन् ।
The nations shall see and be confounded at all their might: they shall lay their hand on their mouth, their ears shall be deaf.
17 तिनीहरूले सर्पले झैँ धुलो चाट्नेछन्, माटोमा घस्रने प्राणीझैँ तिनीहरूले गर्नेछन् । तिनीहरू आफ्ना गुफाहरूबाट डरसाथ निस्कनेछन् । परमप्रभु, हाम्रा परमेश्वर, तपाईंकहाँ तिनीहरू डरसाथ आउनेछन्, र तिनीहरू तपाईंको कारण भयभीत हुनेछन् ।
They shall lick the dust like a serpent, they shall move out of their holes like worms of the earth: they shall be afraid of the LORD our God, and shall fear because of you.
18 तपाईंझैँ परमेश्वर को छ, जसले पापलाई मेटाउनुहुन्छ, र आफ्नो उत्तराधिकारका बाँकी रहेकाहरूको अपराध क्षमा गर्नुहुन्छ? उहाँ सदाको निम्ति रिसाउनुहुन्न, किनभने उहाँ आफ्नो करारको विश्वसनीयतामा खुशी हुनुहुन्छ ।
Who is a God like to you, that pardons iniquity, and passes by the transgression of the remnant of his heritage? he retains not his anger for ever, because he delights in mercy.
19 तपाईंले फेरि हामीमाथि दया देखाउनुहुनेछ । तपाईंले हाम्रा अपराधहरूलाई आफ्ना पाऊमुनि कुल्चनुहुनेछ । तपाईंले हाम्रा सबै पापहरूललाई समुद्रको गहिराइमा फ्याँकिदिनुहुनेछ ।
He will turn again, he will have compassion on us; he will subdue our iniquities; and you will cast all their sins into the depths of the sea.
20 प्राचीन दिनहरूमा तपाईंले हाम्रा पुर्खाहरूसँग प्रतिज्ञा गर्नुभएझैँ तपाईंले याकूबलाई सत्यता र अब्राहामलाई करारको विश्वसनीयता दिनुहुनेछ ।
You will perform the truth to Jacob, and the mercy to Abraham, which you have sworn to our fathers from the days of old.
