जकरिया 8
1 परमप्रभुको यस्तो वचन मकहाँ आयो,
And the word of the Lord Almighty came, saying,
2 “सेनाहरूका परमप्रभु यस्तो भन्नुहुन्छ: म सियोनको निम्ति साह्रै डाही भएको छु र म त्यसको निम्ति डाही भएर अत्यन्तै रिसाएको छु!
Thus says the Lord Almighty; I have been jealous for Jerusalem and for Sion with great jealousy, and I have been jealous for her with great fury.
3 सेनाहरूका परमप्रभु यस्तो भन्नुहुन्छ: म सियोनमा फर्कनेछु र यरूशलेममा वास गर्नेछु, किनकि यरूशलेम सत्यको सहर भनिनेछ र सेनाहरूका परमप्रभुको पर्वतचाहिँ पवित्र पर्वत भनिनेछ!
Thus says the Lord; I will return to Sion, and dwell in the midst of Jerusalem: and Jerusalem shall be called a true city, and the mountain of the Lord Almighty a holy mountain.
4 सेनाहरूका परमप्रभु यस्तो भन्नुहुन्छ: यरूशलेमका सडकहरूमा फेरि वृद्ध पुरुष र स्त्रीहरू हुनेछन्, र हरेक मानिस धेरै वृद्ध भएको हुँदा उसलाई आफ्नो हातमा एउटा लौरो आवश्यक पर्नेछ ।
Thus says the Lord Almighty; There shall yet dwell old men and old women in the streets of Jerusalem, every one holding his staff in his hand for age.
5 त्यस सहरका सडकहरू खेल्ने केटा-केटीहरूले भरिनेछन् ।
And the broad places of the city shall be filled with boys and girls playing in the streets thereof.
6 सेनाहरूका परमप्रभु यस्तो भन्नुहुन्छ: ती दिनहरूमा बाँकी रहेका यी मानिसहरूका आँखामा केही कुरा असम्भव देखिएमा, के ती मेरो नजरमा पनि असम्भव हुन्छन् र? - परमप्रभु घोषणा गर्नुहुन्छ ।
Thus says the Lord Almighty; If it shall be impossible in the sight of the remnant of this people in those days, shall it also be impossible in my sight? says the Lord Almighty.
7 सेनाहरूका परमप्रभु यस्तो भन्नुहुन्छ: हेर, सुर्योदय हुने र सुर्यास्त हुने भूमिबाट मैले मेरा मानिसहरूलाई बचाउन लागेको छु!
Thus says the Lord Almighty; Behold, I [will] save my people from the east country, and the west country;
8 किनभने म तिनीहरूलाई फर्काएर ल्याउनेछु, र तिनीहरू यरूशलेममा वास गर्नेछन्, अनि तिनीहरू फेरि मेरा मानिसहरू हुनेछन्, र सत्यता र धार्मिकतामा म तिनीहरूका परमेश्वर हुनेछु ।
and I will bring them in, and cause [them] to dwell in the midst of Jerusalem: and they shall be to me a people, and I will be to them a God, in truth and in righteousness.
9 सेनाहरूका परमप्रभु यस्तो भन्नुहुन्छ: मेरो यस घरको जग बसालिँदा अगमवक्ताहरूको ओठबाट निस्केका वचनहरू जसले अहिले सुन्दछन्, सेनाहरूका परमप्रभु भन्नुहुन्छ: आफ्ना हातहरू बलिया बनाओ, ताकि त्यो मन्दिर निर्माण गर्न सकियोस् ।
Thus says the Lord Almighty; Let your hands be strong, [you that] hear in these days these words out of the mouth of the prophets, from the day that the house of the Lord Almighty was founded, and from the time that the temple was built.
10 किनकि ती दिनहरूभन्दा पहिले कोहीले पनि फसल बटुल्दैन थिए, मानिस वा पशुको निम्ति त्यहाँ कुनै मुनाफा थिएन, र आउने र जाने कसैलाई पनि शत्रुहरूबाट शान्ति थिएन । मैले हरेक मानिसलाई त्यसको छिमेकीको विरुद्ध खडा गरेको थिएँ ।
For before those days the wages of men could not be profitable, and there could be no hire of cattle, and there could be no peace by reason of the affliction to him that went out or to him that came in: for I would have let loose all men, every one against his neighbour.
11 तर म अब पहिलेका दिनमाझैँ हुन्न, म यी बाँकी रहेका मानिसहरूसँग हुनेछु - सेनाहरूका परमप्रभु घोषणा गर्नुहुन्छ ।
But now I [will] not do to the remnant of this people according to the former days, says the Lord Almighty.
12 किनभने शान्तिको बीउ छरिनेछ; माथि बढ्दै गरेको दाखले आफ्नो फल दिनेछ र पृथ्वीले आफ्नो उब्जनी: आकाशले शीत दिनेछ, किनभने यी बाँकी रहेका मानिसहरूलाई म यी सबै कुराहरू उत्तराधिकारमा दिनेछु ।
But I will show peace: the vine shall yield her fruit, and the land shall yield her produce, and the heaven shall give its dew: and I will give as an inheritance all these things to the remnant of my people.
13 ए यहूदा र इस्राएलको घराना, अन्य श्रापित जातिहरूमा तिमीहरू एउटा उदाहरण थियौ । यसैकारण म तिमीहरूलाई बचाउनेछु र तिमीहरू आशिषको कारण हुनेछौ । नडराओ; तिमीहरूका हात बलियो बनाओ!
And it shall come to pass, as you were a curse amongst the nations, O house of Juda, and house of Israel; so will I save you, and you shall be a blessing: be of good courage, and strengthen your hands.
14 किनभने सेनाहरूका परमप्रभु यस्तो भन्नुहुन्छ: तिमीहरूका पिता-पुर्खाहरूले मलाई रिस उठाउँदा मैले तिनीहरूलाई हानी पुर्याउने योजना गरेर तिनीहरूप्रति दया देखाइनँ - परमप्रभु घोषणा गर्नुहुन्छ,
For thus says the Lord Almighty; As I took counsel to afflict you when your fathers provoked me, says the Lord Almighty, and I repented not:
15 यी दिनहरूमा पनि म यरूशलेम र यहूदाको घरानालाई भलाइ गर्ने योजना गर्नेछु! नडराओ!
so have I prepared and taken counsel in these days to do good to Jerusalem and to the house of Juda: be you of good courage.
16 तिमीहरूले यी कामहरू गर्नुपर्छ: हरेक मानिसले आफ्नो छिमेकीसँग सत्य बोलोस् । आफ्नो इलाकामा सत्य, न्याय, र शान्तिसँग इन्साफ गर ।
These [are] the things which you shall do; speak truth every one with his neighbour; judge truth and peaceful judgement in your gates:
17 आफ्नो हृदयमा एक अर्काको विरुद्धमा खराबी गर्ने योजना नबनाओ, र झुटा शपथलाई प्रेम नगर - किनभने यी कुराहरूलाई म घृणा गर्दछु! – परमप्रभु घोषणा गर्नुहुन्छ ।”
and let none of you devise evil in his heart against his neighbour; and love not a false oath: for all these things I hate, says the Lord Almighty.
18 अनि सेनाहरूका परमप्रभुको यस्तो वचन मकहाँ आयो,
And the word of the Lord Almighty came to me, saying,
19 “सेनाहरूका परमप्रभु यस्तो भन्नुहुन्छ: चौथो, साथौँ, र दशौँ महिनाका उपवासहरू यहूदाका घरानाको निम्ति आनन्द, हर्ष, र खुशीका पर्वहरूका समय हुनेछन्! यसैले सत्य र शान्तिलाई प्रेम गर!
Thus says the Lord Almighty, The fourth fast, and the fifth fast, and the seventh fast, and the tenth fast, shall be to the house of Juda for joy and gladness, and for good feasts; and you shall rejoice; and love you the truth and peace.
20 सेनाहरूका परमप्रभु यस्तो भन्नुहुन्छ: विभिन्न सहरहरूमा बस्ने सबै मानिसहरू फेरि आउनेछन् ।
Thus says the Lord Almighty; Yet shall many peoples come, and the inhabitants of many cities;
21 एउटा सहरका वासिन्दाहरू अर्को सहरमा जानेछन् र भन्नेछन्, ‘हामी तुरुन्तै परमप्रभुको सामु बिन्ती गर्न र सेनाहरूका परमप्रभुको खोजी गर्न जाऔँ! हामीहरू आफैँ पनि जाँदै छौँ ।’
and the inhabitants of five cities shall come together to one city, saying, Let us go to make supplication to the Lord, and to seek the face of the Lord Almighty; I will go also.
22 धेरै मानिसहरू र धेरै जातिहरू यरूशलेममा सेनाहरूका परमप्रभुको खोजी गर्न र उहाँको निगाह प्राप्त गर्न आउनेछन्!
And many peoples and many nations shall come to seek earnestly the face of the Lord Almighty in Jerusalem, and to obtain favour of the Lord.
23 सेनाहरूका परमप्रभु यस्तो भन्नुहुन्छ: ती दिनहरूमा हरेक भाषा र जातिबाट दश जना मानिसहरूले तिम्रो लबेदाको छेउ समातेर यसो भन्नेछन्, ‘हामीलाई तपाईंसँग जान दिनुहोस्, किनभने परमेश्वर तपाईंसँग हुनुहुन्छ भन्ने हामीले सुनेका छौँ!’”
Thus says the Lord Almighty; In those days [my word shall be fulfilled] if ten men of all the languages of the nations should take hold—even take hold of the hem of a Jew, saying, We will go with you; for we have heard that God is with you.
