Proverbs 7
1 [My] son, keep my words, and hide with you my commandments. [My] son, honour the Lord, and you shall be strong; and fear none but him:
हे मेरो छोरो, मेरा वचनहरू पालन गर्, र मेरा आज्ञाहरू तँभित्र सञ्चय गरेर राख् ।
2 keep my commandments, and you shall live; and [keep] my words as the pupils of [your] eyes.
मेरा आज्ञाहरू पालन गरेर बाँच्, र मेरो निर्देशनलाई तेरो आँखाको नानीजस्तै जोगाइराख् ।
3 And bind them on your fingers, and write [them] on the table of your heart.
तिनलाई तेरा औँलाहरूमा बेह्रेर राख् । तिनलाई तेरो हृदयको पाटीमा लेखेर राख् ।
4 Say that wisdom is your sister, and gain prudence as an acquaintance for yourself;
बुद्धिलाई भन्, “तिमी मेरी बहिनी हौँ,” र समझशक्तिलाई आफ्नो आफन्त भन् ।
5 that she may keep you from the strange and wicked woman, if she should assail you with flattering words.
तब तिनले तँलाई व्यभिचारी स्त्री र अनैतिक स्त्रीको मोहित तुल्याउने कुराहरूबाट बचाउने छन् ।
6 For she looks from a window out of her house into the streets, at one whom she may see of the senseless ones, a young man void of understanding,
मेरो घरको झ्यालमा बसेर मैले आँखी-झ्यालबाट हेर्दै थिएँ ।
7 passing by the corner in the passages near her house,
मैले सोझा मानिसहरूलाई हेरेँ, र युवाहरूका बिचमा एक जना निर्बुद्धिलाई ख्याल गरेँ ।
8 and speaking, in the dark of the evening,
त्यो जवान मानिस त्यस स्त्री बस्ने गल्ली नजिकबाट गयो, र त्यो स्त्रीको घरतर्फ लाग्यो ।
9 when there happens [to be] the stillness of night and of darkness:
साँझको बेलामा दिन ढल्कँदै थियो, जुन बेला अन्धकार छाएको थियो ।
10 and the woman meets him having the appearance of a harlot, that causes the hearts of young men to flutter.
एउटी स्त्रीले त्यसलाई भेटी, जसले वेश्याले जस्तै पहिरन लगाएकी थिई र त्यसको हृदय धूर्त थियो ।
11 And she is fickle, and debauched, and her feet abide not at home.
त्यो चञ्चली र जिद्दीवाल थिई । त्यो आफ्नो घरमा बस्दिनथी ।
12 For at one time she wanders without, and at [another] time she lies in wait in the streets, at every corner.
त्यो कहिले सडकमा त कहिले बजारमा बस्थी, अनि हरेक कुनाकाप्चामा त्यो लुकेर बस्थी ।
13 Then she caught him, and kissed him, and with an impudent face said to him,
त्यसले उसलाई पक्रेर चुम्बन गरी, र निर्लज्ज चेहरा लिएर भनी,
14 I have a peace-offering; today I pay my vows:
“आज मैले आफ्नो मेलबलि चढाएँ; मेरा भाकलहरू पुरा गरेँ ।
15 therefore I came forth to meet you, desiring your face; [and] I have found you.
त्यसैले म तपाईंलाई भेट्न, उत्सुकतासाथ तपाईंको मुहार हेर्न आएकी हुँ, र अहिले मैले तपाईंलाई भेट्टाएकी छु ।
16 I have spread my bed with sheets, and I have covered it with double tapestry from Egypt.
मैले मेरो ओछ्यानमा मिश्र देशको रङ्गिन तन्ना ओछ्याएकी छु ।
17 I have sprinkled my couch with saffron, and my house with cinnamon.
मैले मेरो ओछ्यानमा मूर्र, एलवा र दालचिनी छर्केकी छु ।
18 Come, and let us enjoy love until the morning; come, and let us embrace in love.
आउनुहोस्, बिहानसम्मै हामी प्रेमको सागरमा डुबौँ । हामी प्रेमको कार्यमा रमाऔँ ।
19 For my husband is not at home, but is gone on a long journey,
किनकि मेरा पति घरमा हुनुहुन्न । उहाँ लामो यात्रामा जानुभएको छ ।
20 having taken in his hand a bundle of money: after many days he will return to his house.
उहाँले आफूसित पैसाको थैली लिएर जानुभएको छ । उहाँ पूर्णिमामा मात्र घर फर्कनुहुने छ ।”
21 So with much converse she prevailed on him to go astray, and with the snares of her lips forced him from [the right path].
धेरै कुराकानी गरेर त्यो उसकहाँ फर्की । त्यसले आफ्ना मोहित तुल्याउने कुराहरूलाई उसलाई फकाई ।
22 And he followed her, being gently led on, and [that] as an ox is led to the slaughter, and as a dog to bonds, or as a hart shot in the liver with an arrow:
मारिनलाई लगिएको गोरुझैँ र पासोमा परेको मृगझैँ त्यो अकस्मात् स्त्रीको पछि लाग्यो ।
23 and he hastens as a bird into a snare, not knowing that he is running for [his] life.
वाणले त्यसको कलेजो नछेडेसम्म त्यो पछि लागरिरह्यो । त्यो जालतिर कुदिरहरेको चरोजस्तो थियो । आफ्नो ज्यानै गुमाउनुपर्थ्यो भनी त्यसलाई थाहा थिएन ।
24 Now then, [my] son, listen to me, and attend to the words of my mouth.
अब हे मेरा छोराहरू हो, मेरो कुरा सुन । मेरा मुखका वचनहरूलाई ध्यान देओ ।
25 Let not your heart turn aside to her ways:
तिमीहरूको हृदय त्यसका मार्गहरूमा नलागोस् । त्यसका मार्गहरूमा बरालिएर नजाओ ।
26 for she has wounded and cast down many, and those whom she has slain are innumerable.
त्यसले धेरै मानिसहरूलाई फसाएकी छे । त्यसका सिकारहरू धेरै छन् ।
