Exodus 19
1 In the third month after the children of Israel went out from Egypt, on the same day, they came into the waste land of Sinai.
इस्राएलका मानिसहरू मिश्र देशबाट निस्केको तिन महिना बितेपछि ठिक त्यही दिनमा तिनीहरू सीनैको उजाड-स्थानमा आइपुगे ।
2 And when they had gone away from Rephidim and had come into the waste land of Sinai, they put up their tents in the waste land before the mountain: there Israel put up its tents.
तिनीहरू रपीदीमबाट सीनैको उजाड-स्थानमा आइपुगेपछि तिनीहरूले पर्वतको सामुन्ने उजाड-स्थानमा छाउनी हाले ।
3 And Moses went up to God, and the voice of the Lord came to him from the mountain, saying, Say to the family of Jacob, and give word to the children of Israel:
मोशा परमेश्वरकहाँ माथि उक्लेर गए । परमप्रभुले पर्वतबाट तिनलाई भन्नुभयो, “तैँले याकूबको घराना अर्थात् इस्राएलका मानिसहरूलाई यसो भन्नूः
4 You have seen what I did to the Egyptians, and how I took you, as on eagles' wings, guiding you to myself.
मैले मिश्रीहरूलाई के गरेँ, र मैले कसरी तिमीहरूलाई गरुडको पखेटामा बोकेर मकहाँ ल्याएँ भनी तिमीहरूले देखेका छौ ।
5 If now you will truly give ear to my voice and keep my agreement, you will be my special property out of all the peoples: for all the earth is mine:
अब तिमीहरूले आज्ञाकारितापूर्वक मेरो कुरा सुन्यौ र मेरो करार पालन गर्यौ भने सबै जातिमध्ये तिमीहरूचाहिँ मेरो विशेष सम्पत्ति हुनेछौ किनकि सबै पृथ्वी मेरै हुन् ।
6 And you will be a kingdom of priests to me, and a holy nation. These are the words which you are to say to the children of Israel.
तिमीहरू मेरा लागि पुजारीहरूका राज्य र पवित्र जाति हुनेछौ । तैँले यी वचनहरू इस्राएलका मानिसहरूलाई बताउनू ।”
7 And Moses came and sent for the chiefs of the people and put before them all these words which the Lord had given him orders to say.
मोशा ओर्लेर आई मानिसहरूका धर्म-गुरुहरूलाई बोलाउन पठाए । परमप्रभुले तिनलाई भन्नुभएका सबै वचन तिनले तिनीहरूका सामु राखे ।
8 And all the people, answering together, said, Whatever the Lord has said we will do. And Moses took back to the Lord the words of the people.
सबै मानिसले सँगसँगै जवाफ दिए, “परमप्रभुले भन्नुभएका सबै कुरा हामी गर्नेछौँ ।” तब मानिसहरूका वचन परमप्रभुलाई भन्न मोशा आए ।
9 And the Lord said to Moses, See, I will come to you in a thick cloud, so that what I say to you may come to the ears of the people and they may have belief in you for ever. And Moses gave the Lord word of what the people had said.
परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्नुभयो, “म तँसित बोल्दा तँलाई मानिसहरूले सदाको लागि विश्वास गरून् भन्ने हेतुले म बाक्लो बादलमा तँकहाँ आउनेछु” । तब मोशाले मानिसहरूका वचन परमप्रभुलाई बताए ।
10 And the Lord said to Moses, Go to the people and make them holy today and tomorrow, and let their clothing be washed.
परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्नुभयो, “मानिसहरूकहाँ जा । आज र भोलि तैँले तिनीहरूलाई मेरो लागि अलग गर् र तिनीहरूका आ-आफ्ना लुगाहरू धुन लगा ।
11 And by the third day let them be ready: for on the third day the Lord will come down on Mount Sinai, before the eyes of all the people.
तेस्रो दिनमा तयार भएर बस् किनकि तेस्रो दिनमा परमप्रभु सीनै पर्वतमा ओर्लिआउनुहुनेछ ।
12 And let limits be marked out for the people round the mountain, and say to them, Take care not to go up the mountain or near the sides of it: whoever puts his foot on the mountain will certainly come to his death:
तैँले मानिसहरूका लागि पर्वतको वरिपरि सिमाना लगाउनू । तिनीहरूलाई भन्नू, 'तिमीहरू पर्वतमा उक्लेर नजाओ वा यसको सिमानालाई नछोओ । जसले पर्वतलाई छुन्छ त्यो निश्चय नै मारिनेछ ।'
13 He is not to be touched by a hand, but is to be stoned or have an arrow put through him; man or beast, he is to be put to death: at the long sounding of a horn they may come up to the mountain.
यस्तो व्यक्तिलाई कसैको हातले छुनुहुँदैन । बरु, उसलाई निश्चय नै ढुङ्गाले वा काँडले हानेर मारिनुपर्छ । चाहे त्यो मानिस होस् वा पशु त्यसलाई मारिनैपर्छ । जब तुरही लामो समयसम्म बज्छ तिनीहरू पर्वतको फेदीमा आउनुपर्छ ।”
14 Then Moses went down from the mountain to the people, and made the people holy; and their clothing was washed.
तब मोशा पर्वतबाट झरेर मानिसहरूकहाँ गए । तिनले मानिसहरूलाई परमप्रभुको निम्ति अलग गरे र तिनीहरूले आ-आफ्ना लुगाहरू धोए ।
15 And he said to the people, Be ready by the third day: do not come near a woman.
तिनले मानिसहरूलाई भने, “तेस्रो दिनमा तयार होओ । सहवास नगर ।”
16 And when morning came on the third day, there were thunders and flames and a thick cloud on the mountain, and a horn sounding very loud; and all the people in the tents were shaking with fear.
तेस्रो दिनमा जब बिहान भयो गर्जन सुनियो र बिजुली चम्क्यो अनि पर्वतमा एउटा बाक्लो बादल देखा पर्यो र तुरहीको ठुलो आवाज आयो । छाउनीमा भएका सबै मानिस थरथर काँपे ।
17 And Moses made the people come out of their tents and take their places before God; and they came to the foot of the mountain,
परमेश्वरलाई भेट्न मोशाले मानिसहरूलाई छाउनी बाहिर ल्याए, र तिनीहरू पर्वतको फेदीमा खडा भए ।
18 And all the mountain of Sinai was smoking, for the Lord had come down on it in fire: and the smoke of it went up like the smoke of a great burning; and all the mountain was shaking.
सीनै पर्वत पुरै धुवाँले भरिएको थियो किनकि परमप्रभु आगो र धुवाँमा यसमा ओर्लनुभएको थियो । भट्टीको धुवाँजस्तै गरी धुवाँ माथि गयो, र पुरै पर्वत बेस्सरी हल्लियो ।
19 And when the sound of the horn became louder and louder, Moses' words were answered by the voice of God.
जब तुरहीको आवाज झनझन चर्को हुँदै गयो मोशा बोल्न लागे र परमप्रभुले तिनलाई सुन्ने गरी जवाफ दिनुभयो ।
20 Then the Lord came down on to Mount Sinai, to the top of the mountain, and the Lord sent for Moses to come up to the top of the mountain, and Moses went up.
परमप्रभु सीनै पर्वतको टुप्पोमा ओर्लनुभयो, र उहाँले मोशालाई टुप्पोमा बोलाउनुभयो । त्यसैले मोशा माथि उक्ले ।
21 And the Lord said to Moses, Go down and give the people orders to keep back, for fear that a great number of them, forcing their way through to see the Lord, may come to destruction.
परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्नुभयो, “तल ओर्लेर गएर मानिसहरूलाई होसियार गरा नत्रता तिनीहरूले सिमाना नाघेमा धेरै जना नष्ट हुनेछन् ।
22 And let the priests who come near to the Lord make themselves holy, for fear that the Lord may come on them suddenly.
मेरो नजिक आउने पुजारीहरूले पनि आ-आफूलाई शुद्ध तुल्याऊन्, मेरो आगमनको लागि तिनीहरू तयार रहून् ताकि मैले तिनीहरूलाई प्रहार गर्न नपरोस् ।”
23 And Moses said to the Lord, The people will not be able to come up the mountain, for you gave us orders to put limits round the mountain, marking it out and making it holy.
मोशाले परमप्रभुलाई भने, “मानिसहरू सीनै पर्वतमा आउन सक्दैनन् किनकि तपाईंले हामीलाई यसरी आज्ञा दिनुभएको छः पर्वतको वरिपरि सिमाना लगाउनू र त्यो परमप्रभुको लागि अलग गर्नू' ।”
24 And the Lord said to him, Go down, and you and Aaron may come up; but let not the priests and the people make their way through to the Lord, or he will come on them suddenly.
परमप्रभुले तिनलाई भन्नुभयो, “जा, तँ आफै पर्वतबाट तल ओर्लेर जा, तँसँगै हारूलाई मकहाँ लिएर आइज । तर मकहाँ आउन पुजारीहरू र मानिसहरूले सिमाना ननाघून् नत्रता मैले तिनीहरूलाई प्रहार गर्नेछु ।”
25 So Moses went down to the people and said this to them.
त्यसैले मोशा मानिसहरूकहाँ तल ओर्लेर गई तिनीहरूलाई यी कुरा बताइदिए ।
