नहूम 2
1 तँलाई टुक्रा-टुक्रा पार्नुहुने तेरो विरुद्धमा आउँदै हुनुहुन्छ । सहरहरूका पर्खालहरूमा मानिसहरू खटाओ, बाटोहरूलाई पहरा देओ, आफैँलाई बलिया बनाओ, आफ्ना सेनाहरूलाई एकठ्ठा गर ।
He who dashes in pieces has come up against you. Keep the fortress. Watch the way. Strengthen your waist. Fortify your power mightily.
2 लुटेराहरूले तिनीहरूलाई तहस-नहस गरे तापनि, र तिनीहरूका दाखका हाँगाहरूलाई नष्ट गरे तापनि, परमप्रभुले इस्राएलको गौरवझैँ याकूबको गौरव पुनर्स्थापित गर्दै हुनुहुन्छ ।
For Jehovah restores the excellency of Jacob, as the excellency of Israel; for the destroyers have destroyed them, and ruined their vine branches.
3 त्यसका शक्तिशाली मानिसहरूका रक्षा कवचहरू राता छन्, र त्यसका सैनिकहरू वैजनी रङ्गका पोशाकमा छन् । तिनीहरूका रथहरू तयार भएका दिनमा तिनीहरूका धातुद्धारा चम्किन्छन्, र सल्लोका भालाहरू हावामा लहराइन्छन् ।
The shield of his mighty men is made red. The valiant men are in scarlet. The chariots flash with steel in the day of his preparation, and the pine spears are brandished.
4 ती रथहरू सडकहरूबाट तीव्र गतिमा अगि बढ्छन्, फराकिला सडकहरूमा ती अगाडि र पछाडि दौडन्छन् । तिनीहरू राँकाझैँ देखिन्छन्, र तिनीहरू बिजुलीझैँ दौडन्छन् ।
The chariots rage in the streets. They rush back and forth in the broad ways. Their appearance is like torches. They run like the lightnings.
5 तँलाई टुक्रा-टुक्रा पार्नेले आफ्ना अधिकारीहरूलाई बोलाउँछ, तर तिनीहरू हिँड्ने क्रममा एक आपसमा ठेस खाई लड्छन् । तिनीहरू सहरको पर्खाललाई आक्रमण गर्न हतारिन्छन् । यी आक्रमण गर्नेहरूलाई बचाउनको निम्ति ठुलो रक्षा कवच बनाइन्छ ।
He summons his picked troops. They stumble on their way. They dash to its wall, and the protective shield is put in place.
6 नदीका बाँधहरू खुला पारिन्छन्, र दरबारचाहिँ नाश हुनेछ ।
The gates of the rivers are opened, and the palace is dissolved.
7 हुज्जाबका वस्त्र फुकालिएकाछन् र त्यो निर्वासनमा लगिनेछे । त्यसका कमारीहरू छाती पिट्दै ढुकुरहरूझैँ विलाप गर्छन् ।
It is decreed: she is uncovered, she is carried away; and her handmaids moan as with the voice of doves, beating on their breasts.
8 निनवे चुहिरहेको पोखरीझैँ हो, जसका मानिसहरू जोडले बगिरहेको पानीझैँ भागिरहेका छन् । अरूहरूले ठुलो सोरमा भन्छन्, “रोक, रोक,” तर कसैले पनि पछि फर्केर हेर्दैन ।
But Nineveh has been from of old like a pool of water, yet they flee away. "Stop. Stop." they cry, but no one looks back.
9 चाँदी र सुनका लुटका सामान लेओ, किनभने निनवेका सबै सुन्दर कुराहरूका वैभवको कुनै अन्त्य छैन ।
Take the spoil of silver. Take the spoil of gold, for there is no end of the store, the glory of all goodly furniture.
10 निनवे रित्तो र नष्ट भएको छ । सबैका हृदय पग्लिन्छन्, सबैका घुँडाहरू एक आपसमा ठोकिन्छन्, र पीडा सबैमा छ, तिनीहरू सबैका अनुहारहरू पहेँला छन् ।
She is empty, void, and waste. The heart melts, the knees knock together, their bodies and faces have grown pale.
11 सिंहको गुफा, जहाँ जवान सिंहहरूलाई खुवाइन्थ्यो, जहाँ सिंह र सिंहनी आफ्ना डमरुहरूसँग हिँड्थे, जहाँ तिनीहरू कोहीसँग डराउँदैनथे, त्यो ठाउँ कहाँ छ?
Where is the den of the lions, and the feeding place of the young lions, where the lion and the lioness walked, the lion's cubs, and no one made them afraid?
12 सिंहले आफ्ना डमरुहरूका निम्ति त्यसका शिकारहरूलाई टुक्रा-टुक्रा गर्यो । त्यसले आफ्ना सिंहनीहरूका निम्ति शिकारको घाँटी निमोठी मार्यो, र आफ्नो गुफालाई शिकारहरूले, र आफ्नो ओडारलाई टुक्रा-टुक्रा पारिएका सिनुहरूले भर्यो ।
The lion tore in pieces enough for his cubs, and strangled for his lionesses, and filled his caves with the kill, and his dens with prey.
13 सेनाहरूका परमप्रभु यो घोषणा गर्नुहुन्छ, “हेर्, म तेरो विरुद्धमा छु । म तेरा रथहरूलाई जलाएर धुँवा बनाउनेछु र तेरा जवान सिंहहरूलाई तरवारले नष्ट पार्नेछ । तेरो भुमिबाट तेरो शिकारलाई म हटाइदिनेछु र तेरा समाचारबाहकहरूका आवाज अब कहिल्यै सुनिनेछैन ।”
"Look, I am against you," says Jehovah of hosts, "and I will burn her chariots in the smoke, and the sword will devour your young lions; and I will cut off your prey from the earth, and the voice of your messengers will no longer be heard."
