< Daniel 9 >
1 In the first year of Darius, the son of Ahasuerus, of the seed of the Medes, who was made king over the kingdom of the Chaldaeans;
दारा मादी वंशका अहासूरसका छोरा थिए । यी तिनै अहासूरस थिए जसलाई बेबिलोनको राज्यमाथि राजा बनाइएको थियो ।
2 In the first year of his rule, I, Daniel, saw clearly from the books the number of years given by the word of the Lord to the prophet Jeremiah, in which the making waste of Jerusalem was to be complete, that is, seventy years.
अब दाराले राज्य सुरु गरेको पहिलो वर्षमा, म दानिएलले, परमप्रभुको वचन पढ्दै थिएँ, जुन वचन यर्मियाकहाँ अगमवक्ता आएको थियो । यरूशलेम त्यागिएको अवस्थामा सत्तरी वर्षसम्म रहन्छ भनिएको मैले देखें ।
3 And turning my face to the Lord God, I gave myself up to prayer, requesting his grace, going without food, in haircloth and dust.
उपवाससहित प्रार्थना र बिन्ती गर्न, भाङ्ग्रा लगाउँदै र खरानीमा बस्दै परमप्रभु परमेश्वरको खोजी गर्न मैले आफ्नो अनुहार उहाँतर्फ फर्काएँ ।
4 And I made prayer to the Lord my God, putting our sins before him, and said, O Lord, the great God, greatly to be feared. keeping your agreement and mercy with those who have love for you and do your orders;
परमप्रभु आफ्नो परमेश्वरसँग मैले प्रार्थना गरें, अनि मैले हाम्रा पापहरू स्वीकारें । मैले भनें, “कृपया, हे परमप्रभु, तपाईं महान् र भययोग्य परमेश्वर हुनुहुन्छ, तपाईंले आफ्नो करारको पालन गर्नुहुन्छ र तपाईंलाई प्रेम गर्ने र तपाईंका आज्ञाहरू मान्नेलाई प्रेम गर्न तपाईं विश्वासयोग्य हुनुहुन्छ ।
5 We are sinners, acting wrongly and doing evil; we have gone against you, turning away from your orders and from your laws:
हामीले पाप गरेका छौं र गलत काम गरेका छौं। हामीले दुष्टतापुर्वक काम गरेका छौं र तपाईंका आज्ञा र विधिहरूबाट तर्केर हामीले बागी भएका छौं।
6 We have not given ear to your servants the prophets, who said words in your name to our kings and our rulers and our fathers and all the people of the land.
तपाईंका नाउँमा हाम्रा राजाहरू, अगुवाहरू, पुर्खाहरू र देशका सबै मानिसहरूसँग बोलेका तपाईंका सेवक अगमवक्ताहरूका वचन हामीले सुनेका छैनौं ।
7 O Lord, righteousness is yours, but shame is on us, even to this day; and on the men of Judah and the people of Jerusalem, and on all Israel, those who are near and those who are far off, in all the countries where you have sent them because of the sin which they have done against you.
हे परमप्रभु, धार्मिकता तपाईंको हो । तर आज, हाम्रो अनुहार, अनि यहूदाका मानिसहरू र यरूशलेममा बस्नेहरू, र सारा इस्राएलीहरू लाजमा परेका छन् । अनि तपाईंले विभिन्न ठाउँहरूमा छरपष्ट पार्नुभएका नजिक र टाढाका सबै मानिसहरू त्यसमा समावेश हुन्छन् । हामीले तपाईंको विरुद्धमा गरेका विश्वासघातको कारणले नै यस्तो भएको हो ।
8 O Lord, shame is on us, on our kings and our rulers and our fathers, because of our sin against you.
हे परमप्रभु, हामीले तपाईंको विरुद्धमा पाप गरेका कारणले गर्दा, हामी, हाम्रा राजाहरू, अगुवाहरू, र पुर्खाहरूका अनुहार शर्ममा परेका छन् ।
9 With the Lord our God are mercies and forgiveness, for we have gone against him;
दया र क्षमा परमप्रभु हाम्रा परमेश्वरका हुन्, किनकि हामीले उहाँको विरुद्धमा विद्रोह गरेका छौं ।
10 And have not given ear to the voice of the Lord our God to go in the way of his laws which he put before us by the mouth of his servants the prophets.
आफ्ना सेवक अगमवक्ताहरूद्वारा परमप्रभुले हामीलाई दिनुभएका उहाँका व्यवस्थामा हिंड्नलाई हामीले उहाँको वचन मानेका छैनौं ।
11 And all Israel have been sinners against your law, turning away so as not to give ear to your voice: and the curse has been let loose on us, and the oath recorded in the law of Moses, the servant of God, for we have done evil against him.
तपाईंको वचन पालन गर्नलाई इन्कार गरेर सबै इस्राएलले तपाईंको व्यवस्थाको विरुद्धमा अपराध गरेका छन्। परमेश्वरका सेवक मोशाका व्यवस्थामा लेखिएका सराप र प्रतिज्ञा हामीमाथि खनिएका छन्, किनकि हामीले उहाँको विरुद्ध पाप गरेका छौं।
12 And he has given effect to his words which he said against us and against those who were our judges, by sending a great evil on us: for under all heaven there has not been done what has been done to Jerusalem.
परमप्रभुले हामीमाथि ठुलो विपत्ति ल्याउनुभएर उहाँले हामी र हाम्रा शासकहरूका विरुद्धमा बोल्नुभएका वचनहरू पुरा गर्नुभएको छ । किनभने यरूशलेमलाई जे गरिएको छ सारा स्वर्गमुनि त्यस्तो कहिल्यै गरिएको छैन ।
13 As it was recorded in the law of Moses, all this evil has come on us: but we have made no prayer for grace from the Lord our God that we might be turned from our evil doings and come to true wisdom.
मोशाको व्यवस्थामा लेखिएझैं सबै विपत्ति हामीमाथि आइपरेको छन्, तापनि आफ्ना पापबाट फर्केर र तपाईं परमप्रभु परमेश्वरका सत्यतामा ध्यान दिएर हामीले तपाईंबाट कृपा पाउन अझैसम्म बिन्ती गरेका छैनौं ।
14 So the Lord has been watching over this evil and has made it come on us: for the Lord our God is upright in all his acts which he has done, and we have not given ear to his voice.
यसकारण परमप्रभुले विपत्तिलाई पठाउन तयार राख्नुभएको छ, र त्यो हामीमाथि ल्याउनुभएको छ, किनभने परमप्रभु हाम्रा परमेश्वर आफूले गर्नुहुने सबै काममा धर्मी हुनुहुन्छ, तापनि हामीले उहाँको वचन पालना गरेका छैनौं ।
15 And now, O Lord our God, who took your people out of the land of Egypt with a strong hand and made a great name for yourself even to this day; we are sinners, we have done evil.
अब हे परमप्रभु हाम्रा परमेश्वर, शक्तिशाली हातले तपाईंले आफ्ना मानिसहरूलाई मिश्रदेशबाट बाहिर ल्याउनुभयो, र आजको दिनसम्म तपाईंले आफ्नो नामको ख्याति कायम राख्नुभएको छ । तापनि हामीले अझै पाप गर्यौं, र हामीले दुष्ट काम गरेका छौं ।
16 O Lord, because of your righteousness, let your wrath and your passion be turned away from your town Jerusalem, your holy mountain: because, through our sins and the evil-doing of our fathers, Jerusalem and your people have become a cause of shame to all who are round about us.
हे परमप्रभु, तपाईंका सबै धार्मिक कामहरूका कारणले, तपाईंको सहर यरूशलेम, तपाईंको पवित्र पर्वतबाट तपाईंको रिस र क्रोध हटोस् । हाम्रा पापहरू र हाम्रा पुर्खाहरूका अपराधहरूका कारणले, यरूशलेम र हाम्रा वरिपरि भएका तपाईंका मानिस सबै घृणाका पात्र भएका छन् ।
17 And now, give ear, O our God, to the prayer of your servant and to his request for grace, and let your face be shining on your holy place which is made waste, because of your servants, O Lord.
अब हे हाम्रा परमेश्वर, तपाईंको दासको प्रार्थना र कृपाको निम्ति गरिएको उसको निवेदन सुन्नुहोस् । हे परमप्रभु, तपाईंको खातिर, उजाड भएको तपाईंको पवित्र स्थानमा आफ्नो अनुहार चम्काउनुहोस् ।
18 O my God, let your ear be turned and give hearing; let your eyes be open and see how we have been made waste and the town which is named by your name: for we are not offering our prayers before you because of our righteousness, but because of your great mercies.
मेरा परमेश्वर, आफ्ना कान खोल्नुहोस् र सुन्नुहोस् । आफ्ना आँखा खोल्नुहोस् र हेर्नुहोस् । हामी तहस-नहस पारिएका छौं। तपाईंको नामद्वारा पुकारिने त्यो सहरलाई हेर्नुहोस् । हाम्रो धार्मिकताको कारणले होइन, तर तपाईंको महान् कृपाको कारणले तपाईंबाट सहायता पाउनलाई हामी बिन्ती गर्छौं ।
19 O Lord, give ear; O Lord, have forgiveness; O Lord, take note and do; let there be no more waiting; for the honour of your name, O my God, because your town and your people are named by your name.
हे परमप्रभु सुन्नुहोस्! हे परमप्रभु क्षमा गर्नुहोस्! हे परमप्रभु ध्यान दिनुहोस् र काम गर्नुहोस् । हे मेरा परमेश्वर, तपाईंको आफ्नै निम्ति ढिला नगर्नुहोस्, किनभने तपाईंको सहर र तपाईंका मानिस तपाईंकै नाउँले बोलाइन्छन् ।”
20 And while I was still saying these words in prayer, and putting my sins and the sins of my people Israel before the Lord, and requesting grace from the Lord my God for the holy mountain of my God;
जब म बोलिरहेको, प्रार्थना गरिरहेको र आफू अनि आफ्ना मानिस इस्राएलका पाप स्विकार गरिरहेको थिएँ, र परमेश्वरको पवित्र पर्वत निम्ति परमप्रभु मेरा परमेश्वरको सामु मेरा बिन्तीहरू राख्दै थिएँ—
21 Even while I was still in prayer, the man Gabriel, whom I had seen in the vision at first when my weariness was great, put his hand on me about the time of the evening offering.
मैले प्रार्थना गरिरहँदा, मैले दर्शनमा पहिला देखेको मानिस, गाब्रिएल साँझको बलिदानको समयमा तिव्र वेगले उडेर तल मकाहाँ आए ।
22 And teaching me and talking to me he said, O Daniel, I have come now to give you wisdom.
उनले मलाई समझ दिए र मलाई भने, “ए दानिएल, तिमीलाई अन्तर्दृष्टि र समझ दिनलाई अहिले म आएको हुँ ।
23 At the first word of your prayer a word went out, and I have come to give you knowledge; for you are a man dearly loved: so give thought to the word and let the vision be clear to you.
तिमीले कृपाको निम्ति बिन्ती गर्न सुरु गर्दा, आज्ञा दिइयो र तिमीलाई जवाफको बारेमा बताउनलाई म आएको हुँ, किनकि तिमीलाई धेरै प्रेम गरिएको छ । यसकारण यो वचन विचार गर र प्रकट भएको कुरालाई बुझ ।
24 Seventy weeks have been fixed for your people and your holy town, to let wrongdoing be complete and sin come to its full limit, and for the clearing away of evil-doing and the coming in of eternal righteousness: so that the vision and the word of the prophet may be stamped as true, and to put the holy oil on a most holy place.
तिम्रा मानिसहरू र तिम्रो पवित्र सहरको दोषको अन्त्य गर्न र पापलाई अन्त्य गर्न, दुष्टताको निम्ति पश्चात्ताप गर्न, अनन्त धार्मिकता ल्याउन, दर्शन र अगमवाणीलाई पुरा गर्न, र अति पवित्र स्थानलाई शुद्ध पार्नलाई सत्तरी सातहरूको आदेश दिइएको छ ।
25 Have then the certain knowledge that from the going out of the word for the building again of Jerusalem till the coming of a prince, on whom the holy oil has been put, will be seven weeks: in sixty-two weeks its building will be complete, with square and earthwork.
यो जान र बुझ, कि यरूशलेमलाई पुनर्स्थापित र पुनर्निर्माण गर्ने आज्ञा दिएपछि, अभिषिक्त जनको (जो अगुवा हुनेछन्) आगमनसम्म त्यहाँ सात सातहरू र बैसठ्ठी सातहरू हुनेछन् । धेरै विपदका समयहरू हुने भए तापनि, सडकहरू र सुरुङहरूसहित यरूशलेमको पुनर्निर्माण हुनेछ ।
26 And at the end of the times, even after the sixty-two weeks, one on whom the holy oil has been put will be cut off and have no...; and the town and the holy place will be made waste together with a prince; and the end will come with an overflowing of waters, and even to the end there will be war; the making waste which has been fixed.
बैसठ्ठी सातहरूपछि, अभिषिक्त जनलाई नाश पारिनेछ र तिनीसँग केही पनि हुनेछैन । आउनेवाला शासकका सेनाले सहर र पवित्र स्थानलाई नाश गर्नेछ । बाढीसँगै त्यसको अन्त्य आउनेछ, र अन्त्यसम्मै युद्ध हुनेछ । सर्वनाश पार्ने आज्ञा दिइएको छ ।
27 And a strong order will be sent out against the great number for one week; and so for half of the week the offering and the meal offering will come to an end; and in its place will be an unclean thing causing fear; till the destruction which has been fixed is let loose on him who has made waste.
एउटा सातको निम्ति तिनले धेरै जनासँग करार सदर गर्नेछन् । सातको बिचमा तिनले बलिदान र भेटीलाई समाप्त गर्नेछन् । घृणित कुराहरूको पखेटामा कोही व्यक्ति आउनेछ जसले सर्वनाश गर्नेछ । सर्वनाश गर्ने व्यक्तिलाई पूर्ण रूपमा खत्तम गर्ने र विनाश पार्ने आदेश भएको छ ।”
