< Ezekiel 24 >

1 In the ninth year, on the tenth day of the tenth month, the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
नवौं वर्षको दशौं महिनाको र महिनको दशौं दिनमा परमप्रभुको वचन यसो भनेर मकहाँ आयो,
2 “Son of man, write down today’s date, for on this very day the king of Babylon has laid siege to Jerusalem.
“ए मानिसको छोरो, आफ्‍नो निम्‍ति आजको दिन, आजकै मिति लेख्, किनकि आजकै दिन बेबिलोनको राजाले यरूशलेमलाई घेरा हालेको छ ।
3 Now speak a parable to this rebellious house and tell them that this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘Put the pot on the fire; put it on and pour in the water.
यस विद्रोही घरानाको विरुद्धमा यो उपदेश, यो दृष्‍टान्त तिनीहरू भन्‌। तिनीहरूलाई यसो भन्, 'परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर यसो भन्‍नुहुन्‍छः पकाउने भाँडो राख् । त्‍यसलाई राख्, र त्‍यसमा पानी हाल्‌ ।
4 Put in the pieces of meat, every good piece— thigh and shoulder— fill it with choice bones.
त्‍यसभित्र भएका खानेकुरा, हरेक असल टुक्रा— तिघ्रा र ह्‍याकुलो जम्‍मा गर र त्‍यसलाई असल हाडहरूले भर्‌ ।
5 Take the choicest of the flock and pile the fuel beneath it. Bring it to a boil and cook the bones in it.’
बगालको सबभन्‍दा असल पशु छान्, त्यसमुनि हाडको थुप्रो लगा । त्यसलाई उमाल्ने ठाउँमा ल्या र त्‍यसमा हाडहरू पका ।
6 Therefore this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘Woe to the city of bloodshed, to the pot now rusted, whose rust will not come off! Empty it piece by piece; cast no lots for its contents.
यसकारण परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर यसो भन्‍नुहुन्‍छः यो रगतको सहरलाई धिक्‍कार! त्‍यो खिया लागेको भाँडालाई र त्‍यसबाट त्‍यो खिया जानेछैन! त्‍यसमा भएका टुक्राबाट नछानिकन एक-एक गर्दै निकाल् ।
7 For the blood she shed is still within her; she poured it out on the bare rock; she did not pour it on the ground to cover it with dust.
किनकि त्‍यसको रगत त्‍यसकै बिचमा छ । त्‍यसले त्‍यो रगत चिल्‍लो चट्टानमा बगाई । धूलाले ढाक्‍नलाई त्‍यसले त्‍यो रगत भूइँमा पोखाईन,
8 In order to stir up wrath and take vengeance, I have placed her blood on the bare rock, so that it would not be covered.’
यसैले त्‍यसले साटो लिने क्रोध ल्‍याउँछ । त्‍यसको रगत ढाक्‍न नसकियोस् भनेर मैले चिल्लो चट्टानमा त्‍यो पोखाइन ।
9 Yes, this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘Woe to the city of bloodshed! I, too, will pile the kindling high.
यसैकारण परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर यसो भन्‍नुहुन्‍छः त्‍यस रगतको सहरलाई धिक्‍कार । म दाउराको थुप्रोलाई पनि बढाउनेछु ।
10 Pile on the logs and kindle the fire; cook the meat well and mix in the spices; let the bones be burned.
दाउरा थुपार्‌ र आगो सल्‍का । मासु राम्ररी पका, र मसला हाल र हाडहरू डड्न दे‌ ।
11 Set the empty pot on its coals until it becomes hot and its copper glows. Then its impurity will melt within; its rust will be consumed.
त्‍यसपछि त्यसलाई तताउन र तामालाई तताएर आगोजस्तै बनाउन भाँडो खाली गरेर भुङ्ग्रोमाथि राख्, ताकि त्यसभित्र भएको अशुद्धता पग्लोस्, र त्‍यसको थेग्रो डढेर जाओस्‌ ।’
12 It has frustrated every effort; its thick rust has not been removed, even by the fire.
परिश्रमको कारणलर त्यो थकित भएकी छे, तर त्‍यसको बाक्‍लो थेग्रो आगोले पनि गएन ।
13 Because of the indecency of your uncleanness I tried to cleanse you, but you would not be purified from your filthiness. You will not be pure again until My wrath against you has subsided.
तेरो लाजमर्दो व्यवहार तेरो अशुद्धताभित्र छ । किनभने मैले त तँलाई शुद्ध गर्ने कोशिश गरें, तर तेरो अशुद्धताबाट तँ अझै शुद्ध भइनस् । जबसम्‍म म आफ्‍नो क्रोध तेरो विरुद्धमा पोखाएर सन्‍तुष्‍ट हुन्‍नँ, तबसम्‍म तँ फेरि शुद्ध हुनेछैनस्‌ ।
14 I, the LORD, have spoken; the time is coming, and I will act. I will not refrain or show pity, nor will I relent. I will judge you according to your ways and deeds,’
म परमप्रभुले यो घोषणा गरेको हुँ, र म यो गर्नेछु । म पछि हट्‌नेछैनँ, न त म त्‍यसबाट आराम नै गर्नेछु । तेरा चाल र तेरा कामहरूले तिनीहरूले तेरो न्‍याय गर्नेछन्— यो परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वरको घोषणा हो ।
15 Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
त्यसपछि परमप्रभुको वचन यसो भनेर मकहाँ आयोः
16 “Son of man, behold, I am about to take away the desire of your eyes with a fatal blow. But you must not mourn or weep or let your tears flow.
“ए मानिसको छोरो, हेर्, तेरो आँखाका इच्‍छालाई म विपतिबाट हटाउँदैछु, तर तैंले शोक गर्नुहुँदैन न त रुनु हुन्‍छ, र तेरा आँखाबाट आँसु झर्नुहुँदैन ।
17 Groan quietly; do not mourn for the dead. Put on your turban and strap your sandals on your feet; do not cover your lips or eat the bread of mourners.”
तैंले चूपचाप सुस्‍केरा हाल्नुपर्छ । मृतकको अन्तेष्‍टि नगर्‌ । आफ्‍ना फेटा आफ्‍नो टाउकोमा बाँध र आफ्‍ना जुत्ता आफ्‍ना खुट्टामा लगा, तर आफ्नो मुखका रौं नढाक् वा आफ्ना पत्‍नीको मृत्युमा शोक गर्ने मानिसहरूका रोटी नखा ।”
18 So I spoke to the people in the morning, and in the evening my wife died. And the next morning I did as I had been commanded.
यसैले बिहानै मैले यो कुरा मानिसहरूलाई भनें, र त्‍यही बेलुकी मेरी पत्‍नीको मृत्‍यु भयो । भोलिपल्‍ट बिहान मलाई जे गर्ने आज्ञा दिइएको थियो, मैले त्‍यही गरें ।
19 Then the people asked me, “Won’t you tell us what these things you are doing mean to us?”
मानिसहरूले मलाई सोधे, “यी कुराहरू अर्थात्, तपाईंले गरेका कुराहरूको अर्थ के हो, हामीलाई भन्‍नुहुन्‍न?”
20 So I answered them, “The word of the LORD came to me, saying:
यसैले मैले तिनीहरूलाई भनें, “परमप्रभुको वचन यसो भनेर मकहाँ आयो,
21 Tell the house of Israel that this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘I am about to desecrate My sanctuary, the pride of your power, the desire of your eyes, and the delight of your soul. And the sons and daughters you left behind will fall by the sword.’
‘इस्राएलको घरानालाई यसो भन्‌: परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर यसो भन्‍नुहुन्‍छः हेर्, म आफ्‍नो पवित्रस्‍थान—तिमीहरूका शक्तिको गर्व, तिमीहरूका आँखाको खुसी, र तिमीहरूका प्राणको इच्छालाई अपवित्र तुल्‍याउनेछु, र तिमीहरूले छोडिराखेका तिमीहरूका छोराछोरी तरवारले मारिनेछन्‌ ।
22 Then you will do as I have done: You will not cover your lips or eat the bread of mourners.
तब मैले गरेझैं तिमीहरूले पनि गर्नेछौः तिमीहरूले आफ्‍नो अनुहारका रौं छोप्‍नेछैनौ, न त शोक गर्ने मानिसहरूका रोटी खानेछौ ।
23 Your turbans will remain on your heads and your sandals on your feet. You will not mourn or weep, but you will waste away because of your sins, and you will groan among yourselves.
त्‍यसको साटोमा, तिमीहरूका फेटा तिमीहरूका टाउकामा र तिमीहरूका जुत्ता तिमीहरूका खुट्टामा हुनेछन् । तिमीहरूले शोक गर्नेछैनौ न त रुनेछौ, किनकि तिमीहरू आफ्‍ना पापहरूको कारणले पग्लेर जानेछौ, र हरेक मानिसले आफ्ना भाइको निम्ति सुस्‍केरा हाल्‍नेछ ।
24 ‘Thus Ezekiel will be a sign for you; you will do everything that he has done. When this happens, you will know that I am the Lord GOD.’
यसरी इजकिएलचाहिं तिमीहरूका निम्‍ति एउटा चिन्‍ह हुनेछ । उसले जे गरेको छ ती हरेक कुरा तिमीहरूले पनि गर्नेछौ । तब म नै परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर हुँ भनी तिमीहरूले जान्‍नेछौ' ।”
25 And you, son of man, know that on the day I take away their stronghold, their pride and joy—the desire of their eyes which uplifted their souls—and their sons and daughters as well,
“तर ए मानिसको छोरो, तिनीहरूका आनन्‍द, गर्व, तिनेहरूले हेर्ने र इच्‍छा गर्ने तिनीहरूका मन्‍दिरलाई मैले कब्जा गरेको दिनमा— र मैले तिनीहरूका छोराछोरी लिएर जाँदा—
26 on that day a fugitive will come and tell you the news.
त्‍यस दिनमा तँलाई समाचार दिनलाई एक जना शरणार्थी तँकहाँ आउनेछ ।
27 On that day your mouth will be opened to him who has escaped; you will speak and no longer be mute. So you will be a sign to them, and they will know that I am the LORD.”
त्‍यो दिनमा त्यो शरणार्थीसँग तैंले मुख खोल्‍नेछस् र तँ बोल्नेछस्— तँ फेरि चूपचाप रहनेछैनस्‌ । तँ तिनीहरूका निम्‍ति एउटा चिन्‍ह हुनेछस्, ताकि तिनीहरूले म नै परमप्रभु हुँ भनी जान्‍नेछन्‌ ।”
