Jeremiah 31
1 “At that time,” says the LORD, “I will be the God of all the families of Israel, and they will be my people.”
यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो, “त्यस बेला म इस्राएलका सबै वंशको परमेश्वर हुनेछु, र तिनीहरू मेरा मानिसहरू हुनेछन् ।”
2 The LORD says, “The people who survive the sword found favor in the wilderness; even Israel, when I went to cause him to rest.”
परमप्रभु यसो भन्नुहुन्छ, “तरवारबाट बाँचेका मानिसहरूले उजाड-स्थानमा निगाह प्राप्त गरेका छन् । इस्राएललाई विश्राम दिन म बाहिर निस्कनेछु ।”
3 The LORD appeared of old to me, saying, “Yes, I have loved you with an everlasting love. Therefore I have drawn you with loving kindness.
विगतमा परमप्रभु मकहाँ देखा पर्नुभयो र भन्नुभयो, “ए इस्राएल, मैले तँलाई अनन्त प्रेमले प्रेम गरेको छु । त्यसैले मैले तँलाई करारको विश्वसनीयताले मतिर खिँचेको छु ।
4 I will build you again, and you will be built, O virgin of Israel. You will again be adorned with your tambourines, and will go out in the dances of those who make merry.
ए कन्या इस्राएल, म तँलाई फेरि निर्माण गर्नेछु, यसरी तँ निर्माण हुनेछस् । तैंले फेरि आफ्ना खैँजडीहरू लिनेछस् र खुसीको नाचसहित बाहर निस्कनेछस् ।
5 Again you will plant vineyards on the mountains of Samaria. The planters will plant, and will enjoy its fruit.
सामरियाका पहाडहरूमा तैंले फेरि दाखबारीहरू लगाउनेछस् । किसानहरूले रोप्नेछन्, र फललाई असलको उद्धेश्यको लागि प्रयोग गर्नेछन् ।
6 For there will be a day that the watchmen on the hills of Ephraim cry, ‘Arise! Let’s go up to Zion to the LORD our God.’”
किनकि एक दिन आउनेछ, जुन बेला एफ्राइमका पहाडहरूका पहरेदारहरूले घोषणा गर्नेछन्, 'उठ, हामी परमप्रभु हाम्रा परमेश्वरकहाँ सियोनमा जाऔं' ।”
7 For the LORD says, “Sing with gladness for Jacob, and shout for the chief of the nations. Publish, praise, and say, ‘LORD, save your people, the remnant of Israel!’
किनकि परमप्रभु यसो भन्नुहुन्छ, “याकूबको निम्ति आनन्दले कराओ । जातिहरूका मानिसहरूका प्रमुखको लागि खुसीले चिच्च्याओ । प्रशंसा सुनियोस् । यसो भन, 'परमप्रभुले आफ्ना जाति, इस्राएलका बाँकी रहेकाहरूलाई उद्धार गर्नुभएको छ ।'
8 Behold, I will bring them from the north country, and gather them from the uttermost parts of the earth, along with the blind and the lame, the woman with child and her who travails with child together. They will return as a great company.
हेर, मैले तिनीहरूलाई उत्तरी देशहरूबाट फर्काएर ल्याउनै लागेको छु । म तिनीहरूलाई पृथ्वीका पल्ला छेउहरूबाट जम्मा गर्नेछु । तिनीहरूका बिचमा दृष्टिविहीन र लङ्गडाहरू हुनेछन् । गर्भवती स्त्रीहरू र बच्चा जन्माउनै लागेकाहरू तिनीहरूसितै हुनेछन् । एउटा ठुलो समुदाय यहाँ फर्कनेछ ।
9 They will come with weeping. I will lead them with petitions. I will cause them to walk by rivers of waters, in a straight way in which they will not stumble; for I am a father to Israel. Ephraim is my firstborn.
तिनीहरू रुँदै आउनेछन् । तिनीहरूले आ-आफ्ना बिन्ती बिसाउँदा म तिनीहरूलाई अगुवाइ गर्नेछु । म तिनीहरूलाई सिधा मार्गमा पानीका खोलाहरूबाट यात्रा गराउनेछु । तिनीहरू यसमा ठोकिनेछैनन्, किनकि म इस्राएलको पिता हुनेछु, र एफ्राइम मेरो जेठो छोरा हुनेछ ।”
10 “Hear the LORD’s word, you nations, and declare it in the distant islands. Say, ‘He who scattered Israel will gather him, and keep him, as a shepherd does his flock.’
“हे जातिहरू हो, परमप्रभुको वचन सुन । टाढाका समुद्रतटका देशहरूलाई घोषणा गर, जतिहरूले यसो भन्नुपर्छ, 'इस्राएललाई तितर-बितर पार्नुहुनेले तिनीहरूलाई जम्मा गर्दै हुनुहुन्छ र गोठालोलो आफ्ना भेडाहरूलाई रक्षा गरेझैं रक्षा गर्दै हुनुहुन्छ ।'
11 For the LORD has ransomed Jacob, and redeemed him from the hand of him who was stronger than he.
किनकि परमप्रभुले याकूबलाई मोल तिरेर छुटाउनुभएको छ, र उसको भन्दा धेरै शक्तिशाली हातबाट उसलाई छुटकारा दिनुभएको छ ।
12 They will come and sing in the height of Zion, and will flow to the goodness of the LORD, to the grain, to the new wine, to the oil, and to the young of the flock and of the herd. Their soul will be as a watered garden. They will not sorrow any more at all.
तब तिनीहरू आउनेछन् र सियोनका पर्वतहरूमा रमाउनेछन् । मकै र नयाँ दाखमद्य, तेल र गाईवस्तुका बाछाहरू भेडा-बाख्राका पाठाहरूमाथि परमप्रभुको भलाइको कारणले, तिनीहरूका मुहार चम्कनेछन् । किनकि तिनीहरूको जीवन पानीले भिजेको बगैँचाजस्तै हुनेछ, र तिनीहरूले फेरि कहिल्यै दुःखको महसुस गर्नेछैनन् ।
13 Then the virgin will rejoice in the dance, the young men and the old together; for I will turn their mourning into joy, and will comfort them, and make them rejoice from their sorrow.
तब कन्याहरू नाच्दै रमाउनेछन्, र युवा अनि पाकाहरू एकै ठाउँमा आउनेछन् । किनकि तिनीहरूको शोकलाई म उत्सवमा परिणत गर्नेछु । म तिनीहरूमाथि दया देखाउनेछु, र शोक गर्नुको साटो आनन्द मनाउन लगाउनेछु ।
14 I will satiate the soul of the priests with fatness, and my people will be satisfied with my goodness,” says the LORD.
तब पुजारीहरूका जीवनलाई म प्रशस्त मात्रामा परिपूर्ण पार्नेछु । मेरा मानिसहरू मेरो भलाइले भरिनेछ, यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो ।”
15 The LORD says: “A voice is heard in Ramah, lamentation and bitter weeping, Rachel weeping for her children. She refuses to be comforted for her children, because they are no more.”
परमप्रभु यसो भन्नुहुन्छ, “रामामा विलाप गरेको र धुरुधुरु रोएको एउटा सोर सुनिएको छ । राहेल आफ्ना सन्तानका लागि रुँदैछे । त्यसले सान्त्वना पाउनलाई इन्कार गरेकी छे, किनकि तिनीहरू अब फेरि जीवित छैनन् ।”
16 The LORD says: “Refrain your voice from weeping, and your eyes from tears, for your work will be rewarded,” says the LORD. “They will come again from the land of the enemy.
परमप्रभु यसो भन्नुहुन्छ, “रुनदेखि आफ्नो सोर रोक, र आँखाबाट आँसु नखसाल । तिमीहरूको कामको लागि एउटा इनमा छ, यो परमप्रभुको हो, तिमीहरूका छोराछोरी शत्रुको देशबाट फर्कनेछन् ।
17 There is hope for your latter end,” says the LORD. “Your children will come again to their own territory.
तिमीहरूको भविष्यको लागि आशा छ, यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो, तिमीहरूका सन्तानहरू तिमीहरूका सिमानाहरूभित्र फर्कनेछन् ।”
18 “I have surely heard Ephraim grieving thus, ‘You have chastised me, and I was chastised, as an untrained calf. Turn me, and I will be turned, for you are the LORD my God.
“निश्चय नै मैले एफ्राइमको शोक गरेको सुनेको छु, 'तपाईंले मलाई दण्ड दिनुभयो, र एउटा नदाएको बाछालाई झैं मलाई दण्ड दिइएको छ । मलाई फर्काएर ल्याउनुहोस्, र म फर्काइनेछु, किनकि तपाईं परमप्रभु मेरा परमेश्वर हुनुहुन्छ ।
19 Surely after that I was turned. I repented. After that I was instructed. I struck my thigh. I was ashamed, yes, even confounded, because I bore the reproach of my youth.’
किनकि म तपाईंकहाँ फर्केपछि म दुःखित भएँ । मलाई तालिम दिइएपछि मैले आफ्नो तिघ्रामा हिर्काएँ । म लज्जित र अपमानित भएँ, किनकि मैले आफ्नो युवावस्थाको दोष बोकेको छु ।'
20 Is Ephraim my dear son? Is he a darling child? For as often as I speak against him, I still earnestly remember him. Therefore my heart yearns for him. I will surely have mercy on him,” says the LORD.
के एफ्राइम मेरो बहुमूल्य बालक होइन र? के त्यो मेरो प्रिय, आनन्दित छोरो होइन र? किनकि मैले जहिलेसुकै त्यसको विरुद्धमा बोल्दा, म निश्चय नै त्यसलाई मेरो प्रेमिलो हृदयमा सम्झन्छु । यसरी मेरो हृदय त्यसको लागि लालायित हुन्छ । म निश्चय नै त्यसमाथि दया देखाउने छु, यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो ।”
21 “Set up road signs. Make guideposts. Set your heart toward the highway, even the way by which you went. Turn again, virgin of Israel. Turn again to these your cities.
“आफ्ना लागि बाटो देखाउने सङ्केतहरू राख् । आफ्ना लागि खम्बाहरू खडा गर् । तेरो मन तँ हिंड्नुपर्ने ठिक मार्गमा लगा । ए कन्या इस्राएल, फर्केर आइज । तेरा यी सहरहरूमा फर्केर आइज ।
22 How long will you go here and there, you backsliding daughter? For the LORD has created a new thing in the earth: a woman will encompass a man.”
ए विश्वासघाती छोरी, तँ कहिलेसम्म यताउता गरिबस्छेस्? किनकि परमप्रभुले पृथ्वीमा केही नयाँ कुरो सृजनुभएको छ अर्थात् एक जना स्त्रीले एक जना बलियो पुरुषलाई घेर्छे ।”
23 The LORD of Armies, the God of Israel, says: “Yet again they will use this speech in the land of Judah and in its cities, when I reverse their captivity: ‘The LORD bless you, habitation of righteousness, mountain of holiness.’
सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्वर यसो भन्नुहुन्छ, “मैले यस जातिलाई तिनीहरूको देशमा फर्काएर ल्याउँदा तिनीहरूले यहूदा र यसका सहरहरूमा यसो भन्नेछन्, 'उहाँ बस्नुहुने ए धर्मी बासस्थान्, ए पवित्र पर्वत, परमप्रभुले तँलाई आशिष् देऊन् ।'
24 Judah and all its cities will dwell therein together, the farmers, and those who go about with flocks.
किनकि किसानहरू र आफ्ना बगालहरूसित घुम्ने गोठालाहरूझैं यहूदा र यसका सहरहरू सँगसँगै त्यहाँ बस्नेछन् ।
25 For I have satiated the weary soul, and I have replenished every sorrowful soul.”
किनकि थाकेकाहरूलाई म पिउन लयाउनेछु, र मूर्छा खाएकाहरूलाई म सन्तुष्ट पार्नेछु ।”
26 On this I awakened, and saw; and my sleep was sweet to me.
यसपछि म ब्युँझेँ, र मेरा भेडाहरू ताजा हुँदै गरेको मैले थाहा पाएँ ।
27 “Behold, the days come,” says the LORD, “that I will sow the house of Israel and the house of Judah with the seed of man and with the seed of animal.
यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो, “हेर्, यस्ता दिनहरू आउँदैछन्, जुन बेला इस्राएल र यहूदाका घरानाहरूलाई मान्छे र पशुका सन्तानहरूले म रोप्नेछु ।
28 It will happen that, like as I have watched over them to pluck up and to break down and to overthrow and to destroy and to afflict, so I will watch over them to build and to plant,” says the LORD.
विगतमा मैले तिनीहरूलाई जरैदेखि उखेल्न, लछार्न, नष्ट पार्न र हानि गर्न तिनीहरूलाई मेरो निगरानीमा राखेँ । तर आउने दिनहरूमा, तिनीहरूलाई निर्माण गर्न र तिनीहरूलाई रोप्न, म तिनीहरूको रेखदेख गर्नेछु, यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो ।”
29 “In those days they will say no more, “‘The fathers have eaten sour grapes, and the children’s teeth are set on edge.’
“ती दिनमा कसैले पनि यसो भन्नेछैन, 'अमिलो अङ्गुर खानेचाहिं बुबा, तर दाँत कुँडिनेचाहिं छोराछोरीको!'
30 But everyone will die for his own iniquity. Every man who eats the sour grapes, his teeth will be set on edge.
किनकि हरेक मानिस आफ्नै अधर्ममा मर्नेछ । जसले अमिलो अङ्गुर खान्छ, त्यसकै दाँत कुँडिनेछ ।
31 “Behold, the days come,” says the LORD, “that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah,
यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो, हेर्, यस्ता दिनहरू आउँदैछन्, जुना बेला म इस्राएल र यहूदाका घरानासित एउटा नयाँ करार स्थापित गर्नेछु ।
32 not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt, which covenant of mine they broke, although I was a husband to them,” says the LORD.
मैले तिनीहरूका पुर्खाहरूसित बाँधेको करारजस्तो यो हुनेछैन, जब मैले तिनीहरूलाई तिनीहरूका हात समातेर मिश्रदेशबाट बाहिर ल्याएँ, किनकि तिनीहरूले मेरो करार भङ्ग गरे तापनि म तिनीहरूका पति भएँ, यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो ।
33 “But this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days,” says the LORD: “I will put my law in their inward parts, and I will write it in their heart. I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
इस्राएलको घरानासित मैले बाँध्ने करार यही हो, यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो । यी दिनपछि म आफ्नो व्यवस्था तिनीहरूभित्र हाल्नेछु, र तिनीहरूका हृदयमा यो लेख्नेछु, किनकि म तिनीहरूका परमेश्वर हुनेछु, र तिनीहरू मेरा मानिसहरू हुनेछन् ।
34 They will no longer each teach his neighbor, and every man teach his brother, saying, ‘Know the LORD;’ for they will all know me, from their least to their greatest,” says the LORD, “for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.”
तब हरेक मानिसले फेरि आफ्नो छिमेकी वा हरेक मानिसले आफ्नो भाइलाई यसो भनेर सिकाउने छैन, 'परमप्रभुलाई चिन ।' किनकि सानादेखि ठुलासम्म तिनीहरू सबैले मलाई चिन्नेछन्, यो यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो । किनकि म तिनीहरूको अधर्म क्षमा दिनेछु, र फेरि तिनीहरूका पाप सम्झनेछैनँ ।”
35 The LORD, who gives the sun for a light by day, and the ordinances of the moon and of the stars for a light by night, who stirs up the sea, so that its waves roar— the LORD of Armies is his name, says:
परमप्रभु यसो भन्नुहुन्छ, “दिनमा प्रकाश दिन सूर्य र रातमा प्रकाश दिन चन्द्रमा र ताराहरूलाई उहाँले नै निधो गर्नुहुन्छ । समुद्रका छाल गर्जनलाई उहाँले नै यसलाई गतिवान् बनाउनुहुन्छ । सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभु उहाँको नाउँ हो ।”
36 “If these ordinances depart from before me,” says the LORD, “then the offspring of Israel also will cease from being a nation before me forever.”
यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो, “यी स्थायी थोकहरू मेरो दृष्टिबाट गायब भए भने मात्रै, इस्राएलका सन्तानहरू मेरो सामु सदा एउटा जाति हुनबाट खतम हुनेछ ।”
37 The LORD says: “If heaven above can be measured, and the foundations of the earth searched out beneath, then I will also cast off all the offspring of Israel for all that they have done,” says the LORD.
परमप्रभु यसो भन्नुहुन्छ, “उच्चतम आकाशलाई नाप्न सकियो भने, अनि मुनि पृथ्वीको जगलाई पत्ता लगाउन सकियो भने मात्र, इस्राएलका सबै सन्तानले गरेका कुराको कारणले, म तिनीहरूलाई इन्कार गर्नेछु, यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो ।”
38 “Behold, the days come,” says the LORD, “that the city will be built to the LORD from the tower of Hananel to the gate of the corner.
यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो, “हेर्, यस्ता दिनहरू आउँदैछन्, जुन बेला यो सहर हननेलको धरहरादेखि कुने-ढोकसम्मै पुनर्निर्माण गरिनेछ ।
39 The measuring line will go out further straight onward to the hill Gareb, and will turn toward Goah.
तब नाप्ने डोरी फेरि अझै टाढा गारेब डाँडासम्म अनि घुमेर गोआसम्म जानेछ ।
40 The whole valley of the dead bodies and of the ashes, and all the fields to the brook Kidron, to the corner of the horse gate toward the east, will be holy to the LORD. It will not be plucked up or thrown down any more forever.”
लाशहरू र खरानीको सारा उपत्यका अनि पूर्वतिर किद्रोन खोल्सासम्मका सबै खेत अश्व ढोकाको कुनासम्मको भाग परमप्रभुको निम्ति अलग गरिनेछ । त्यो सहर सदाको निम्ति फेरि कहिल्यै उखेलिने, वा भत्काइने छैन ।”
