1 “हद्राकको देशको विषयमा परमप्रभुको यस्तो वचन घोषणा भयो, र उहाँको वचन दमस्कसको विषयमा पनि आयो, किनभने सबै मनुष्यजाति र इस्राएलका सबै कुलहरूका आँखा परमप्रभुतिर छन् ।
A word of the Lord: The Lord has come to the land of Hadrach, and Damascus is his resting-place: for the towns of Aram are the Lord's,
2 दमस्कसको सिमानामा भएको हमात, र टुरोस र सीदोनको निम्ति पनि यो घोषणा हो, किनकि तिनीहरू धेरै बुद्धिमान छन् ।
As well as Hamath, which is by its limit, and Tyre and Zidon, because they are very wise.
3 टुरोसले आफैँ एउटा गढी बनाएको छ, र त्यसले सडकहरूमा धुलोसरह चाँदी र माटोसरह निखुर सुन थुपारेको छ ।
And Tyre made for herself a strong place, and got together silver like dust and the best gold like the earth of the streets.
4 हेर! परमप्रभुले त्यसबाट सबै खोस्‍नुहुनेछ र त्यसको बललाई समुद्रमा नष्‍ट गर्नुहुनेछ, अनि त्यो आगोले भस्म हुनेछ ।
See, the Lord will take away her heritage, overturning her power in the sea; and she will be burned up with fire.
5 अश्कलोनले त्यो देख्‍नेछ र डराउनेछ! गाजा पनि थर-थर काँप्नेछ! एक्रोनको आशा निराशामा परिणत हुनेछ । गाजाबाट राजा नष्‍ट हुनेछ, र अश्कलोनमा कोही वास गर्नेछैन!
Ashkelon will see it with fear, and Gaza, bent with pain; and Ekron, for her hope will be shamed: and the king will be cut off from Gaza, and Ashkelon will be unpeopled.
6 अश्दोदमा परदेशीहरूले घर बसाल्नेछन्, र म पलिश्तीहरूको घमण्ड तोडिदिनेछु ।
And a mixed people will be living in Ashdod, and I will have the pride of the Philistines cut off.
7 किनकि म तिनीहरूका मुखबाट रगत र तिनीहरूका दाँतबाट घिनलाग्दा कुराहरू हटाइदिनेछु । तिनीहरू हाम्रा परमेश्‍वरको निम्ति बाँकी रहेकाहरू, यहूदाको एउटा कुलझैँ हुनेछन्, र एक्रोन यबूसीजस्तै हुनेछ ।
And I will take away his blood from his mouth, and his disgusting things from between his teeth; and some of his people will be kept for our God: and he will be as a family in Judah, and Ekron as one living in Jerusalem.
8 शत्रुका सेनाहरूको विरुद्ध म मेरो भूमिवरिपरि छाउनी लगाउनेछु, ताकि त्यहाँबाट न त कोही छिरोस् वा निस्कोस्, किनकि कोही अत्याचारीले पनि तिनीहरूलाई कुल्चनेछैन, किनभने म मेरै आँखाले नजर लगाउनेछु!
And I will put my forces in position round my house, so that there may be no coming and going: and no cruel master will again go through them: for now I have seen his trouble.
9 ए सियोनकी छोरी अति धेरै आनन्दले कराऊ! यरूशलेमकी छोरी खुशीले कराऊ! हेर! तिम्रा राजा धार्मिकतामा तिमीकहाँ तिमीलाई बचाउन आउँदै हुनुहुन्छ । उहाँ नम्र हुनुहुन्छ र उहाँ गधामाथि, अर्थात् गधाको बछेडामाथि सवार हुनुहुन्छ ।
Be full of joy, O daughter of Zion; give a glad cry, O daughter of Jerusalem: see, your king comes to you: he is upright and has overcome; gentle and seated on an ass, on a young ass.
10 अनि म एफ्राइमबाट रथ र यरूशलेमबाट घोडा हटाइदिनेछु, र युद्धबाट धनु हटाइनेछन्, किनभने उहाँले जाति-जातिमा शान्ति घोषणा गर्नुहुनेछ, र एउटा समुद्रदेखि अर्कोसम्म, र नदीदेखि पृथ्वीको छेउ-छेउसम्म उहाँको प्रभुत्व रहनेछ!
And he will have the war-carriage cut off from Ephraim, and the horse from Jerusalem, and the bow of war will be cut off: and he will say words of peace to the nations: and his rule will be from sea to sea, and from the River to the ends of the earth.
11 तँसँग मेरो करारको रगतको कारण, ती सुक्खा खाडलबाट म तेरा कैदीहरूलाई मुक्त गरिदिनेछु ।
And as for you, because of the blood of your agreement, I have sent out your prisoners from the deep hole in which there is no water.
12 आशा भएका कैदीहरू, गढीमा फर्क! आज म यो घोषणा गर्दै छु, कि म तिमीहरूलाई दोब्बर फिर्ता गरिदिनेछु,
And they will come back to you, O daughter of Zion, as prisoners of hope: today I say to you that I will give you back twice as much;
13 किनभने मैले यहूदालाई मेरो धनुझैँ बङ्गाएको छु । मैले मेरो तूणलाई एफ्राइमले भरेको छु । ए सियोन, मैले तेरा छोराहरूलाई ग्रीसका छोराहरूको विरूद्ध उक्साएको छु, र सियोन, मैले तँलाई योद्धाको तरवारझैँ बनाएको छु!”
For I have made Judah a bow bent for my use, I have made Ephraim the arrows of the bow; I will make your sons, O Zion, take up arms against your sons, O Greece, and will make you like the sword of a man of war.
14 परमप्रभु तिनीहरूकहाँ देखापर्नुहुनेछ, उहाँको काँड बिजुलीझैँ निस्कनेछ! किनकि मेरा परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वरले तुरही फुक्‍नुहुनेछ र उहाँ तेमानबाट आँधीको साथ अगि बढ्नुहुनेछ ।
And the Lord will be seen over them, and his arrow will go out like the thunder-flame: and the Lord God, sounding the war-horn, will go in the storm-winds of the South.
15 सेनाहरूका परमप्रभुले तिनीहरूको सुरक्षा गर्नुहुनेछ, र तिनीहरूले उनीहरूलाई नाश गर्नेछन् र घुयेँत्रोका ढुङ्गाहरूलाई पराजय गर्नेछन् । तिनीहरूले पिउनेछन् र मद्यले मातेका मानिसहरुझैँ ठुलो सोरमा कराउनेछन्, र तिनीहरू बटुकाझैँ, र वेदीका छेउहरूझैँ मद्येले भरिनेछन् ।
The Lord of armies will be a cover for them; and they will overcome, crushing under foot the armed men; they will take their blood for drink like wine: they will be full like the sides of the altar.
16 यसैकारण परमप्रभु तिनीहरूका परमेश्‍वरले तिनीहरूलाई त्यस दिन आफ्ना मानिसहरूको बागललाईझैँ बचाउनुहुनेछ । तिनीहरू उहाँको देशमा चम्कने मुकुटका रत्‍नहरू हुन् ।
And the Lord their God will be their saviour in that day, giving them food like the flock of his people: for they will be like the jewels of a crown shining over his land.
17 तिनीहरू कत्ति असल र कति सुन्दर हुनेछन्! जवान मानिसहरू अन्‍नले र कन्याहरू नयाँ मद्यले हृष्‍टपुष्‍ट हुनेछन् ।
For how good it is and how beautiful! grain will make the young men strong and new wine the virgins.
