Yoel 3

dushman kee sazaa

1un dinon men, haan us vaqt jab main yahoodaah aur yarooshalam ko bahaal karoongaa 2main tamaam deegar aqvaam ko jama karkay vaadee-ay-yahoosafat [a] yahoosafat ka matlab : rabb adaalat karta hai. men lay jaaoonga. vahaan main apnee qaum aur mauroosee milkiyat kee khaatir un say muqaddma ladoonga. kyoonki unhon nay meree qaum ko deegar aqvaam men muntashir karkay meray mulk ko aapas men taqseem kar liya, 3qur’a daal kar meree qaum ko aapas men baant liya hai. unhon nay israaeelee ladkon ko kasbiyon kay badlay men day diya aur israaeelee ladkiyon ko farokht kiya taaki mai khareed kar pee saken.

4ai soor, saida aur tamaam filistee ilaaqo, mera tum say kya vaasta? kya tum mujh say intiqaam lena ya mujhay saza dena chaahatay ho? jald hee main tezee say tumhaaray saath vah kuchh karoonga jo tum nay doosron kay saath kiya hai. 5kyoonki tum nay meree sona-chaandee aur meray beshaqeemat khazaanay loot kar apnay mandiron men rakh liyay hain. 6yahoodaah aur yarooshalam kay baashindon ko tum nay yoonaaniyon kay haath bech daala taaki vah apnay vatan say door rahen.

7lekin main unhen jaga kar un maqaamon say vaapas laaoonga jahaan tum nay unhen farokht kar diya tha. saath saath main tumhaaray saath vah kuchh karoonga jo tum nay un kay saath kiya tha. 8rabb farmaata hai ki main tumhaaray betay-betiyon ko yahoodaah kay baashindon kay haath bech daaloonga, aur vah unhen doordaraaz qaum saba kay havaalay karkay farokht karengay.

9buland aavaaz say deegar aqvaam men elaan karo ki jang kee tayyaariyaan karo. apnay behtareen faujiyon ko khada karo. ladnay kay qaabil tamaam mard a kar hamla karen. 10apnay hal kee phaaliyon ko koot koot kar talvaaren bana lo, kaant-chhaant kay auzaaron ko nezon men tabdeel karo. kamzor aadmee bhee kahay, ‘main soorma hoon!’ 11ai tamaam aqvaam, chaaron taraf say a kar vaadee men jama ho jaao! jaldee karo.”

ai rabb, apnay soormaaon ko vahaan utarnay day!

12“deegar aqvaam harkat men a kar vaadee-ay-yahoosafat men a jaaen. kyoonki vahaan main takht par baith kar ird-gird kee tamaam aqvaam ka faisla karoonga. 13aao, daraantee chalaao, kyoonki fasal pak gaee hai. aao, angoor ko kuchal do, kyoonki us ka ras nikaalnay ka hauz bhara hua hai, aur tamaam bartan ras say chhalaknay lagay hain. kyoonki un kee buraaee bahut hai.”

14faislay kee vaadee men hangaama hee hangaama hai, kyoonki faislay kee vaadee men rabb ka din qareeb a gaya hai. 15sooraj aur chaand taareek ho jaaengay, sitaaron kee chamak-damak jaatee rahegee. 16rabb koh-ay-siyyoon par say dahaadega, yarooshalam say us kee garajtee aavaaz yoon sunaaee degee ki aasmaan-o-zameen laraz uthengay.

israaeel ka jalaalee mustaqbil

lekin rabb apnee qaum kee panaahgaah aur israaeeliyon ka qil’a hoga. 17“tab tum jaan logay ki main, rabb tumhaara khuda hoon aur apnay muqaddas pahaad siyyoon par sukoonat karta hoon. yarooshalam muqaddas hoga, aur aainda pardesee us men say naheen guzarengay.

18us din har cheez kasrat say dastayaab hogee. pahaadon say angoor ka ras tapkega, pahaadiyon say doodh kee nadiyaan bahengee, aur yahoodaah kay tamaam nadee-naalay paanee say bharay rahengay. neez, rabb kay ghar men say ek chashma phoot niklega aur baheta hua vaadee-ay-shitteem kee aabpaashee karega. 19lekin misr tabaah aur adom veeraan-o-sunsaan ho jaaega, kyoonki unhon nay yahoodaah kay baashindon par zulm-o-tashaddud kiya, un kay apnay hee mulk men bequsoor logon ko qatl kiya hai. 20lekin yahoodaah hamesha tak aabaad rahega, yarooshalam nasal-dar-nasal qaaim rahega. 21jo qatl-o-ghaarat un kay darmiyaan huee hai us kee saza main zaroor doonga.”

rabb koh-ay-siyyoon par sukoonat karta hai.

[a] yahoosafat ka matlab : rabb adaalat karta hai.
