< सपन्याह 1 >
1 अमोनका छोरा, यहूदाका राजा योशियाहको समयमा हिजकियाका जनाति, अमर्याहका पनाति, गदल्याहका नाति, कूशीका छोरा सपन्याहकहाँ आएको परमप्रभुको वचन यही हो ।
[the] word of Yahweh - which it came to Zephaniah [the] son of Cushi [the] son of Gedaliah [the] son of Amariah [the] son of Hezekiah in [the] days of Josiah [the] son of Amon [the] king of Judah.
2 “म निश्चय नै यस पृथ्वीबाट सबै कुरा नाश गर्नेछु, परमप्रभु घोषणा गर्नुहुन्छ ।
Utterly I will bring to an end everything from on [the] surface of the ground [the] utterance of Yahweh.
3 म मानिस र पशु दुवैलाई सर्वनाश गर्नेछु । आकाशका चराहरू, र समुद्रका माछा, दुष्टहरू लगायत ढुङ्गाको रास सबैलाई म नष्ट गर्नेछु । किनभने म मानिस जातिलाई पृथ्वीबाट सखाप पार्नेछु, परमप्रभु घोषणा गर्नुहुन्छ ।
I will bring to an end human being and animal I will bring to an end [the] bird[s] of the heavens and [the] fish of the sea and the stumbling-blocks with the wicked [people] and I will cut off humankind from on [the] surface of the ground [the] utterance of Yahweh.
4 यहूदा र यरूशलेमका सबै वासिन्दाहरूमाथि म मेरो हात पसार्नेछु । यस ठाउँबाट बालका बाँकी रहेका सबैलाई र पूजाहारीहरुमध्ये मूर्तिपुजकहरूका नामलाई सखाप पार्नेछु,
And I will stretch out hand my on Judah and on all [the] inhabitants of Jerusalem and I will cut off from the place this [the] remnant of Baal [the] name of the pagan priests with the priests.
5 र घरका माथिल्लो भागमा बसेर नक्षत्रहरूको पूजा गर्नेहरू, र ती मानिसहरू जसले परमप्रभुको आराधना गर्छन् र उहाँको शपथ खान्छन् तर आफ्ना राजाको शपथ पनि खान्छन्, तिनीहरूलाई पनि म नाश गर्नेछु ।
And those [who] bow down on the roofs to [the] host of the heavens and those [who] bow down those [who] swear an oath to Yahweh and those [who] swear an oath by Milcom.
6 परमप्रभुलाई पछ्याउन छोडेर उहाँबाट टाढा हुनेहरू, र उहाँको खोजी नगर्ने र उहाँको निर्देशन नखोज्नेहरूलाई पनि म सखाप पार्नेछु ।”
And those [who] have turned back from after Yahweh and [those] who not they have sought Yahweh and not they have sought him.
7 परमप्रभु परमेश्वरको सामु शान्त रहो, किनभने परमप्रभुको दिन नजिकै छ । परमप्रभुले बलिदान तयार पार्नुभएको छ र आफ्ना पाहुनाहरूलाई अलग्गै राख्नुभएको छ ।
Hush! from before [the] Lord Yahweh for [is] near [the] day of Yahweh for he has prepared Yahweh a sacrifice he has consecrated invited [ones] his.
8 “परमप्रभुको बलिदानको दिनमा, म राजकुमारहरू र राजाका छोराहरू, र विदेशी पहिरन लगाएका सबैलाई दण्ड दिनेछु ।
And it will be on [the] day of [the] sacrifice of Yahweh and I will visit [judgment] on the princes and on [the] sons of the king and on all those [who] are clothed clothing foreign.
9 त्यस दिन सँघारमा खुट्टा नटेक्नेहरू सबैलाई, र आफ्ना मालिकका घरलाई हिंसा र छलले भर्ने सबैलाई म दण्ड दिनेछु ।
And I will visit [judgment] on every [one who] leaps over the threshold on the day that those [who] fill [the] house of lord their violence and deceit.
10 अनि त्यो दिन यस्तो हुनेछ भनेर परमप्रभु घोषणा गर्नुहुन्छ । माछा ढोकाबाट कष्टको रुवाबासी, नयाँ टोलबाट विलाप, र पहाडहरूबाट ठुलो धमाकाको आवाज आउनेछ ।
And it will be on the day that [the] utterance of Yahweh [the] sound of a cry of distress from [the] gate of the fish and wailing from the second district and a crashing great from the hills.
11 ए बजारहरूमा बस्नेहरू, रोओ, किनभने सबै व्यापारीहरू तहस-नहस हुनेछन्, र चाँदीका व्यापारीहरू सखाप पारिनेछन् ।
Wail O inhabitants of the Mortar for it will be destroyed all [the] people of Canaan they will be cut off all [the] weighers of silver.
12 त्यस बेला म बत्तीहरू बालेर यरूशलेमको खोजी गर्नेछु र त्यसको मद्यमा प्रसन्न भएका र आफ्नो हृदयमा ‘परमप्रभुले असल वा खराब केही पनि गर्नुहुनेछैन’ भनेर भन्ने मानिसहरूलाई सजाय दिनेछु ।
And it will be at the time that I will search Jerusalem with lamps and I will visit [judgment] on the people who are thickening on lees their who are saying in heart their not he will do good Yahweh and not he will do harm.
13 तब तिनीहरूको सबै सम्पत्ति लुटिनेछन्, अनि घरहरू नष्ट हुनेछन्। तिनीहरूले घर बनाए तापनि त्यसमा बस्न पाउँने छैनन्। तिनीहरूले दाखको बोट रोपे पनि त्यसको दाखरस खान पाउने छैनन्।
And it will become wealth their plunder and houses their a desolation and they will build houses and not they will dwell [in them] and they will plant vineyards and not they will drink wine their.
14 परमप्रभुको त्यो महान् दिन नजिकै छ, नजिक र चाँडै आउँदै छ । परमप्रभुको दिनको आवाज चिच्याई-चिच्याई रोइरहेको योद्धाको झैँ हुनेछ ।
[is] near [the] day of Yahweh great near and hurrying exceedingly [the] sound of [the] day of Yahweh bitter [is] shouting out there a warrior.
15 त्यो दिन क्रोधको दिन, संकट र पीडाको दिन, आँधी र विनाशको दिन, अन्धकार र विरक्तको दिन, बादल र घोर अन्धकारको दिन हुनेछ ।
[will be] a day of Fury the day that a day of trouble and distress a day of devastation and desolation a day of darkness and gloom a day of cloud and thick darkness.
16 त्यो दिन किल्ला भएका शहरहरु र उच्च धरहराहरूको विरुद्ध तुरही र चेतावनीको सोरको दिन हुनेछ ।
A day of trumpet and battle-cry on the cities fortified and on the corners high.
17 किनभने म मानवजातिमाथि संकट ल्याउनेछु, अनि तिनीहरूले परमप्रभुको विरुद्ध पाप गरेका हुनाले तिनीहरू अन्धा मानिसहरूझैँ हिँड्नेछन् । तिनीहरूको रगत धुलोझैँ र तिनीहरूका भित्री अङ्गहरू लादीझैँ बाहिर फ्याँकिनेछन् ।
And I will cause distress to humankind and they will walk like blind [people] for to Yahweh they have sinned and it will be poured out blood their like dust and bowel[s] their like dung.
18 परमप्रभुको क्रोधको दिनमा न त तिनीहरूको चाँदी न तिनीहरूको सुनले तिनीहरूलाई बचाउन सक्नेछ । उहाँको डाहको आगोमा सारा पृथ्वी भस्म हुनेछ, किनभने उहाँले पृथ्वीका सारा वासिन्दाहरूको पूर्ण र भयानक अन्त गर्नुहुनेछ ।”
Neither silver their nor gold their not it will be able to deliver them on [the] day of [the] fury of Yahweh and in [the] fire of jealousy his it will be consumed all the earth for complete destruction surely a terrible [thing] he will make with all [the] inhabitants of the earth.
