< Isaiah 8 >

1 Moreover, the Lord sayd vnto me, Take thee a great roll, and write in it with a mans penne, Make speede to the spoyle: haste to the praye.
परमप्रभुले मलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “एउटा ठुलो पाटी ले र त्‍यसमा लेख्, ‘महेर-शालल-हाज-बज ।'
2 Then I tooke vnto me faithfull witnesses to recorde, Vriah the Priest, and Zechariah the sonne of Ieberechiah.
मेरो कुरा पक्‍का गर्नलाई म विश्‍वासयोग्य साक्षीहरू अर्थात् पुजारी उरियाह र येबेरक्याहका छोरा जकरियालाई बोलाउनेछु ।”
3 After, I came vnto the Prophetesse, which conceiued, and bare a sonne. Then sayd the Lord to me, Call his name, Mahershalalhash-baz.
म अगमवादिनीकहाँ गएँ र तिनी गर्भवती भइन् र एउटा छोरा जन्माइन् । तब परमप्रभुले मलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “त्यसको नाउँ महेर-शालल-हाज-बज राख् ।
4 For before the childe shall haue knowledge to crye, My father, and my mother, he shall take away the riches of Damascus and the spoyle of Samaria, before the King of Asshur.
किनकि बालकले 'मेरो बुबा' र 'मेरो आमा' भन्‍न जान्‍नअघि नै दमसकसको धन र सामरियाको लूटलाई अश्‍शूरको राजाले बोकेर लैजानेछ ।”
5 And the Lord spake yet againe vnto me, saying,
परमप्रभु फेरि मसँग बोल्नुभयो,
6 Because this people hath refused the waters of Shiloah that runne softly, and reioyce with Rezin, and the sonne of Remaliah,
“यी मानिसहरूले शीलोको शान्त पानीलाई इन्कार गरेका छन् अनि रसीन र रमल्याहको छोरासित खुसी भएका छन्,
7 Nowe therefore, beholde, the Lord bringeth vp vpon them the waters of the Riuer mightie and great, euen the King of Asshur with all his glory, and he shall come vp vpon all their riuers, and goe ouer all their banks,
त्‍यसकारण परमप्रभुले शक्तिशाली र धेरै नदीको पानी अर्थात् अश्‍शूरका राजा र तिनका सबै महिमा तिनीहरूमाथि ल्याउन लाग्‍नुभएको छ । त्‍यसका सबै नहरमा त्‍यो आउनेछ र त्‍यसका किनारहरू भरिएर बग्‍नेछन् ।
8 And shall breake into Iudah, and shall ouerflowe and passe through, and shall come vp to the necke, and the stretching out of his wings shall fill the breadth of thy land, O Immanu-el.
यो तिमीहरूका घाँटीसम्म पुगुन्‍जेल नदी बाढी आएर अघि बढ्दै यहूदाभित्रसम्म बग्‍नेछ । ए इम्मानुएल, यसको फैलिएका पखेटाहरूले तेरो देशकको सबैतिर ढाक्‍नेछ ।”
9 Gather together on heapes, O ye people, and ye shalbe broken in pieces, and hearken all ye of farre countreys: gird your selues, and you shalbe broken in pieces: gird your selues, and you shalbe broken in pieces.
मानिसहरू टुक्रा-टुक्रा हुनेछन् । सुन, ए टाढाका देशहरूः युद्धको निम्ति आफूलाई हतियारले तयार गर र चकनाचूर होओ । आफूलाई हतियारले तयार गर र चकनाचूर होओ ।
10 Take counsell together, yet it shall be brought to nought: pronounce a decree, yet shall it not stand: for God is with vs.
योजना बनाओ, तर यो पुरा हुनेछैन । आज्ञा गर, तर यो पालन गरिनेछैन, किनकि परमेश्‍वर हामीसँग हुनुहुन्छ ।
11 For the Lord spake thus to me in taking of mine hand, and taught me, that I should not walke in the way of this people, saying,
परमप्रभुले मसँग बोल्नुभयो, उहाँको बलियो बाहुली ममाथि थियो र यी मानिसहरू हिंडेका मार्ग नहिंड्न मलाई चेताउनी दिनुभयो ।
12 Say ye not, A confederacie to all them, to whome this people sayth a confederacie, neither feare you their feare, nor be afrayd of them.
यी मानिसहरूले षड्यान्त्र भनेको कुनै पनि कुरालाई षड्यान्त्र नभन्, तिनीहरू डराउने कुरासित तँ डराउने छैनस्, र त्रसित नहो ।
13 Sanctifie the Lord of hostes, and let him be your feare, and let him be your dread,
तैंले पवित्र मानेर आदर गर्ने परमप्रभु नै हुनुहुन्छ । तैंले उहाँकै भय मान्‍नुपर्छ र तँ उहाँसितै डराउनुपर्छ ।
14 And he shalbe as a Sanctuarie: but as a stumbling stone, and as a rocke to fall vpon, to both the houses of Israel, and as a snare and as a net to the inhabitants of Ierusalem.
उहाँ पवित्र वासस्थान हुनुहुनेछ । तर इस्राएलका दुवै घरानाका निम्ति उहाँ प्रहार गर्ने ढुङ्‍गो र ठेस लाग्‍ने चट्टान हुनुहुनेछ— र यरूशलेमका मानिसहरूका निम्ति उहाँ पासो र जाल हुनुहुनेछ ।
15 And many among them shall stumble, and shall fall and shalbe broken and shalbe snared and shalbe taken.
धेरै जना मानिस यसमा ठेस खानेछन् र लड्नेछन् र चकनाचूर हुनेछन्, र जाल फस्‍नेछन् र समातिनेछन् ।
16 Binde vp the testimonie: seale vp the Law among my disciples.
मेरो गवाहीलाई बाँध, आधिकारिक लेखमा छाप लगाऊ र त्‍यो मेरा चेलाहरूलाई देऊ ।
17 Therefore I will waite vpon the Lord that hath hid his face from the house of Iaakob, and I wil looke for him.
याकूबको घरानाबाट आफ्नो मुहार लुकाउनुहुने परमप्रभु म आशा गर्छु । म उहाँमा भरोसा गर्छु ।
18 Beholde, I and the children whome the Lord hath giuen me, are as signes and as wonders in Israel, by the Lord of hostes, which dwelleth in mount Zion.
हेर, म र परमप्रभुले मलाई दिनुभएको छोरा सियोन पर्वतमा वास गर्नुहुने सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभुबाट, इस्राएलको निम्‍ति चिन्हहरू र आश्‍चर्य कामहरू हुन् ।
19 And when they shall say vnto you, Enquire at them that haue a spirit of diuination, and at the soothsayers, which whisper and murmure, Should not a people enquire at their God? from the liuing to the dead?
तिनीहरूले तिमीहरूलाई भन्‍नेछन्, “भूत खेलाउने र आत्माहरू खेलाउनेसित सल्लाह लेओ” जसले मन्त्र भन्छन् र गुनगुनाउछन् । तर के मानिसहरूले आफ्नो परमेश्‍वरसँग सल्लाह लिनुपर्दैन र? के तिनीहरूले जीवितहरूको निम्‍ति मृतहरूसँग सल्लाह लिनुपर्छ र?
20 To the Law, and to the testimonie, if they speake not according to this worde: it is because there is no light in them.
व्यवस्था र गवाहीतिर लाग! तिनले यसो भन्दैनन् भने, तिनीहरूसँग बिहानको मिरमिरे उज्यालो नभएको हुनाले नै हो ।
21 Then he that is afflicted and famished, shall go to and from in it: and when he shalbe hungry, he shall euen freat himselfe, and curse his King and his gods, and shall looke vpward.
तिनीहरू अति व्याकूल भएर र भोकाएर देशमा हिंड्‍नेछन् । जब तिनीहरू भोकाउँछन्, तब तिनीहरू रिसाउनेछन्, र तिनीहरूले आफ्नो अनुहार माथि उचाल्‍दा, आफ्‍ना राजा र आफ्‍ना परमेश्‍वरलाई सराप्‍नेछन् ।
22 And when he shall looke to the earth, beholde trouble, and darkenes, vexation and anguish, and he is driuen to darkenes.
तिनीहरूले पृथ्वीमा हेर्नेछन् र व्‍यकुलता, अन्धकार र अत्याचारको बादल देख्‍नेछन् । तिनीहरू अन्धकारको देशमा लगिनेछन् ।
