< जकरिया 9 >
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 ।
The burden of the word of the Lord in the land of Hadrach and its respite in Damascus. For the eye of man and of all the tribes of Israel is of the Lord.
2 दमस्कसको सिमानामा भएको हमात, र टुरोस र सीदोनको निम्ति पनि यो घोषणा हो, किनकि तिनीहरू धेरै बुद्धिमान छन् ।
Hamath also is at its limits, and Tyre and Sidon. For, of course, they have assumed themselves to be exceedingly wise.
3 टुरोसले आफैँ एउटा गढी बनाएको छ, र त्यसले सडकहरूमा धुलोसरह चाँदी र माटोसरह निखुर सुन थुपारेको छ ।
And Tyre has built herself a fortress, and she has piled together silver, as if it were soil, and gold, as if it were the mud of the streets.
4 हेर! परमप्रभुले त्यसबाट सबै खोस्नुहुनेछ र त्यसको बललाई समुद्रमा नष्ट गर्नुहुनेछ, अनि त्यो आगोले भस्म हुनेछ ।
Behold, the Lord will possess her, and he will strike her strength in the sea, and she will be devoured by 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 and be afraid. Both Gaza and he will be very sorrowful, as well as Ekron, because her hope has been confounded. And the king will pass away from Gaza, and Ashkelon will not be inhabited.
6 अश्दोदमा परदेशीहरूले घर बसाल्नेछन्, र म पलिश्तीहरूको घमण्ड तोडिदिनेछु ।
And the divider will sit in Ashdod, and I will scatter the arrogance of the Philistines.
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 abominations from between his teeth, and yet he will be left for our God, and he will be like a governor in Judah, and Ekron will be like a Jebusite.
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 encircle my house with those who serve me in war, going and returning, and the exactor will no longer pass over them. For now I have seen with my eyes.
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 ।
Rejoice well, daughter of Zion, shout for joy, daughter of Jerusalem. Behold, your King will come to you: the Just One, the Savior. He is poor and riding upon a donkey, and upon a colt, the son of a donkey.
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 I will scatter the four-horse chariot out of Ephraim and the horse from Jerusalem, and the bow of war will be destroyed. And he will speak peace to the Gentiles, and his power will be from sea to sea, and from the rivers even to the end of the earth.
11 तँसँग मेरो करारको रगतको कारण, ती सुक्खा खाडलबाट म तेरा कैदीहरूलाई मुक्त गरिदिनेछु ।
You, likewise, by the blood of your testimony, have sent forth your prisoners from the pit, in which there is no water.
12 आशा भएका कैदीहरू, गढीमा फर्क! आज म यो घोषणा गर्दै छु, कि म तिमीहरूलाई दोब्बर फिर्ता गरिदिनेछु,
Turn back to the fortress, prisoners of hope. Today, I also announce that I will repay you double,
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!”
because I have stretched out Judah for myself, like a bow; I have filled Ephraim. And I will raise up your sons, Zion, above your sons, Greece. And I will set you as the sword of the strength.
14 परमप्रभु तिनीहरूकहाँ देखापर्नुहुनेछ, उहाँको काँड बिजुलीझैँ निस्कनेछ! किनकि मेरा परमप्रभु परमेश्वरले तुरही फुक्नुहुनेछ र उहाँ तेमानबाट आँधीको साथ अगि बढ्नुहुनेछ ।
And the Lord God will be seen over them, and his arrow will go forth like lightning. And the Lord God will sound the trumpet, and he will go forth into the whirlwind 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 hosts will protect them. And they will devour and subdue with the stones of the sling. And, when drinking, they will become inebriated, as if with wine, and they will be filled like bowls and like the horns of the altar.
16 यसैकारण परमप्रभु तिनीहरूका परमेश्वरले तिनीहरूलाई त्यस दिन आफ्ना मानिसहरूको बागललाईझैँ बचाउनुहुनेछ । तिनीहरू उहाँको देशमा चम्कने मुकुटका रत्नहरू हुन् ।
And in that day, the Lord their God will save them as the flock of his people. For holy stones will be lifted up over his land.
17 तिनीहरू कत्ति असल र कति सुन्दर हुनेछन्! जवान मानिसहरू अन्नले र कन्याहरू नयाँ मद्यले हृष्टपुष्ट हुनेछन् ।
For what is his goodness and what is his beauty, other than grain among the elect and wine springing forth virgins?
