< Jeremiah 7 >
1 The word that came to Jeremias from the Lord, saying:
परमप्रभुको यो वचन यर्मियाकहाँ यसो भनेर आयो,
2 Stand in the gate of the house of the Lord, and proclaim there this word, and say: Hear ye the word of the Lord, all ye men of Juda, that enter in at these gates, to adore the Lord.
“परमप्रभुको मन्दिरको मूल ढोकामा खडा हो र यो वचन घोषणा गर् । यसो भन्, 'परमप्रभुलाई आराधना चढाउन यी ढोकाहरूबाट प्रवेश गर्ने यहूदाका सबै मानिसहरू हो, परमप्रभुको वचन सुन ।
3 Thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel: Make your ways and your doings good: and I will dwell with you in this place.
सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्वर यसो भन्नुहुन्छः तिमीहरूका मार्ग र अभ्यास असल बनाओ, र म तिमीहरूलाई यस ठाउँमा बसिरहन दिनेछु ।
4 Trust not in lying words, saying: The temple of the Lord, the temple of the Lord, it is the temple of the Lord.
छलपूर्ण वचनहरूमा आफू भर नपर र यसो नभन, 'परमप्रभुको मन्दिर! परमप्रभुको मन्दिर! परमप्रभुको मन्दिर!'
5 For if you will order well your ways, and your doings: if you will execute judgement between a man and his neighbor,
किनकि तिमीहरूले वास्तवमै तिमीहरूका मार्ग र अभ्यासहरू असल बनायौ भने, अनि तिमीहरूले मानिस र त्यसको छिमेकीको बिचमा न्यायलाई पूर्ण रूपमा कायम राख्यौ भने,
6 If you opress not the stranger, the fatherless, and the widow, and shed not innocent blood in this place, and walk not after strange gods to your own hurt,
तिमीहरूले देशमा बस्ने मानिस, अनाथ वा विधवालाई शोषण गरेनौ र यस ठाउँमा निर्दोषको रगत बगाएनौ र आफैलाई हानि पुर्याउन अरू देवताहरूको पछि लागेनौ भने,
7 I will dwell with you in this place: in the land, which I gave to your fathers from the beginning and for evermore.
म तिमीहरूलाई यस ठाउँमा बस्न दिनेछु, जुन देश मैले प्राचीन समयदेखि नै सदाको लागि तिमीहरूका पुर्खाहरूलाई दिएँ ।
8 Behold you put your trust in lying words, which shall not profit you:
हेर! तिमीहरूले छलपूर्ण वचनहरूमाथि भरोसा गर्दैछौ जसले तिमीहरूको मदत गर्दैनन् ।
9 To steal, to murder, to commit adultery, to swear falsely, to offer to Baalim, and to go after strange gods, which you know not.
के तिमीहरू चोर्छौ, मार्छौ, र व्यभिचार गर्छौ? के तिमीहरू छलपूर्वक शपथ खान्छौ अनि बाल देवतालाई धुप चढाउँछौ र तिमीहरूले नचिनेका अरू देवताहरूको पछि लाग्छौ?
10 And you have come, and stood before me in this house, in which my name is called upon, and have said: We are delivered, because we have done all these abominations.
त्यसपछि तिमीहरू आउँछौ अनि मेरो नाउँले बोलाइने यस मन्दिरमा मेरो सामु खडा हुन्छौ र यसो भन्छौ, “हामी बचाइएका छौं”, यसरी तिमीहरू यी सबै घृणित कामहरू गर्न सक्छौ?
11 Is this house then, in which my name hath been called upon, in your eyes become a den of robbers? I, I am he: I have seen it, saith the Lord.
के मेरो नाउँले पुकारिने यो घर तिमीहरूको दृष्टिमा डाँकुहरूको ओडार हो? तर हेर, मैले यो देखेको छु, यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो ।’
12 Go ye to my place in Silo, where my name dwelt from the beginning: and see what I did to it for the wickedness of my people Israel:
‘त्यसैले शीलोमा भएको मेरो ठाउँ जाओ, जहाँ सुरुमा मैले मेरो नाउँ रहने अनुमति दिएँ, र मेरो जाति इस्राएलको दुष्टताको कारणले मैले यसलाई के गरें त्यो हेर ।
13 And now, because you have done all these works, saith the Lord: and I have spoken to you rising up early, and speaking, and you have not heard: and I have called you, and you have not answered:
त्यसैले अब यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो, तिमीहरूका यी सबै अभ्यासको बारेमा तिमीहरूसित म बेलाबेलामा बोलेँ, तर तिमीहरूले सुनेनौ । मैले तिमीहरूलाई बोलाएँ, तर तिमीहरूले जवाफ दिएनौ ।
14 I will do to this house, in which my name is called upon, and in which you trust, and to the places which I have given you and your fathers, as I did to Silo.
त्यसकारण मैले शीलोलाई जे गरें, मेरो नाउँद्वारा बोलाइने यस मन्दिरलाई पनि म त्यसै गर्नेछु, तिमीहरूले भरोसा गरेको यो घर हो, जुन मैले तिमीहरू र तिमीहरूका पुर्खाहरूलाई दिएँ ।
15 And I will cast you away from before my face, as I have cast away all your brethren, the whole seed of Ephraim.
जसरी मैले तिमीहरूका सबै दाजुभाइ अर्थात् एफ्राइमका सबै सन्तानलाई निकालेँ, त्यसरी नै मेरो सामुबाट म तिमीहरूलाई निकाल्नेछु ।”
16 Therefore, do not thou pray for this people, nor take to thee praise and supplication for them: and do not withstand me: for I will not hear thee.
“ए यर्मिया, तैंलेचाहिं यी मानिसहरूको लागि प्रार्थना नगर्, र तिनीहरूको पक्षमा विलाप नगर्, न त बिन्ती चढा, किनकि म तेरो कुरा सुन्दिनँ ।
17 Seest thou not what they do in the cities of Juda, and in the streets of Jerusalem?
यहूदाका सहरहरू र यरूशलेमका सडकहरूमा तिनीहरूले के गरिरहेका छन् भनी के तँ देख्दैनस्?
18 The children gather wood, and the fathers kindle the fire and the women knead the dough, to make cakes to the queen of heaven, and to offer libations to strange gods, and to provoke me to anger.
छोराछोरीले दाउरा बटुल्दैछन्, र बुबाहरू आगो बाल्दैछन् । तिनीहरूले मलाई चिढ्याउनलाई स्वर्गकी रानीको निम्ति फुरौला बनाउन स्त्रीहरू पिठो मुछ्दैछन्, र अरू देवताहरूका लागि अर्घबलि खन्याउँदैछन् ।
19 Do they provoke me to anger, saith the Lord? Is it not themselves, to the confusion of their contenance?
के तिनीहरूले साँच्चै मलाई चिढ्याउँदै छन् त? यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो, के लाज तिनीहरूमाथि नै आइपरोस् भनेर तिनीहरूले आफैलाई चिढ्याइरहेका होइनन् र?
20 Therefore thus saith the Lord God: Behold my wrath and my indignation was enkindled against this place, upon men and upon beasts, and upon the trees of the field, and upon the fruits of the land, and it shall burn, and shall not be quenched.
त्यसकारण परमप्रभु परमेश्वर यसो भन्नुहुन्छ, 'हेर, यस ठाउँमा मानिस र पशु दुवैमाथि, शेतबारीका रूखहरू र जमिनका फलमाथि मेरो रिस र क्रोधको ज्वाला फुट्नेछ । यसले जलाउनेछ, र कहिल्यै निभाइनेछैन ।”
21 Thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel: Add your burnt offerings to your sacrifices, and eat ye the flesh.
इस्राएलका सर्वशक्तिमान् परमेश्वर यसो भन्नुहुन्छ, ‘तिमीहरूका बलिदानहरूमा होमबलिहरू मिसाओ, र तीबाट मासु पनि मिसाओ ।
22 For I spoke not to your fathers, and I commanded them not, in the day that I brought them out of the land of Egypt, concerning the matter of burnt offerings and sacrifices.
किनकि मैले तिमीहरूका पुर्खाहरूलाई मिश्रदेशबाट ल्याउँदा तिमध्ये कुनै कुरा पनि मैले इच्छा गरिन । होमबलि र बलिदानहरूको विषयमा मैले तिनीहरूलाई कुनै आज्ञा दिइनँ ।
23 But this thing I commanded them, saying: Hearken to my voice, and I will be your God, and you shall be my people: and walk ye in all the way that I have commanded you, that it may be well with you.
मैले तिनीहरूलाई यो आज्ञा मात्र दिएँ, “मेरो आवाजलाई सुन, र म तिमीहरूका परमेश्वर हुनेछु, र तिमीहरू मेरा मानिसहरू हुनेछौ । त्यसैले तिमीहरूको भलो होस् भनेर मैले तिमीहरूलाई दिएका सबै आज्ञामा हिंड ।”
24 But they hearkened not, nor inclined their ear: but walked in their own will, and in the perversity of their wicked heart: and went backward and not forward,
तर तिनीहरूले सुनेनन्, वा ध्यान नै दिए । तिनीहरू आफ्ना दुष्ट हृदयका आफ्नै हठी योजनामुताबिक जिए । त्यसैले तिनीहरू पछिल्तिर गए, अगिल्तिर बढेनन् ।
25 From the day that their fathers came out of the land of Egypt, even to this day. And I have sent to you all my servants the prophets from day to day, rising up early and sending.
तिमीहरूका पुर्खाहरू मिश्रदेशबाट आएको समयदेखि आजको दिनसम्म मैले आफ्ना हरेक सेवक र अगमवक्ताहरू तिमीहरूकहाँ पठाएको छु । मैले तिनीहरूलाई पठाउन जोड गरिरहेँ ।
26 And they have not hearkened to me: nor inclined their ear: but have hardened their neck, and have done worse than their fathers.
तर तिनीहरूले मेरो कुरा सुनेनन् । तिनीहरूले ध्यानै दिएनन् । बरु, तिनीहरू अटेरी भए । आफ्ना पुर्खाहरूभन्दा तिनीहरू अझै दुष्ट भए ।’
27 And thou shalt speak to them all these words, but they will not hearken to thee: and thou shalt call them, but they will not answer thee.
त्यसैले यी सबै वचन तिनीहरूलाई सुना, तर तिनीहरूले तेरो कुरा सुन्नेछैनन् । तिनीहरूलाई यी कुराको घोषणा गर्, तर तिनीहरूले तँलाई जवाफ दिनेछैनन् ।
28 And thou shalt say to them: This is a nation which hath not hearkened to the voice of the Lord their God, nor received instruction: Faith is lost, and is carried away out of their mouth.
तिनीहरूलाई यसो भन्, “यो परमप्रभु आफ्ना परमेश्वरको आवाज नसुन्ने र अनुशासन पालन नगर्ने जाति हो । सत्यता नष्ट गरिएको छ, र तिनीहरूका मुखबाट बहिष्कृत गरिएको छ ।
29 Cut off thy hair, and cast it away: and take up a lamentation on high: for the Lord hath rejected and forsaken the generation of his wrath,
आफ्नो कपाल काट र आफूलाई खौरी । खुला ठाउँहरूमा मृत्यु संस्कारको गीत गा । किनकि परमप्रभुले आफ्नो क्रोधमा यस पुस्तालाई इन्कार गर्नुभएको छ र त्याग्नुभएको छ ।
30 Because the children of Juda have done evil in my eyes, saith the Lord. They have set their abominations in the house in which my name is called upon, to pollute it;
किनकि यहूदाका छोराहरूले मेरो दृष्टिमा दुष्ट काम गरेका छन्, यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो । मेरो नाउँद्वारा पुकारिने यस मन्दिरलाई अपवित्र तुल्याउनलाई तिनीहरूले त्यसमा घृणित कुराहरू राखेका छन् ।
31 And they have built the high places of Topeth, which is in the valley of the son of Ennom, to burn their sons, and their daughters in the fire: which I commanded not, nor thought on in my heart.
अनि बेन-हिन्नोमको बेँसीमा तिनीहरूले तोपेतका अग्ला ठाउँहरू बनाए । तिनीहरूले आफ्ना छोराछोरीलाई आगोमा जलाउन त्यो बनाए । यो कुरो मैले तिनीहरूलाई आज्ञा दिएको थिइनँ, न त मेरो मनमा नै पसेको थियो ।
32 Therefore behold the days shall come, saith the Lord, and it shall no more be called Topeth, nor the valley of the son of Ennom: but the valley of slaughter, and they shall bury in Topeth, because there is no place.
यसैले हेर, यस्ता दिनहरू आउँदैछन्, यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो, त्यसबेला त्यो फेरि तोपेत वा हिन्नोमको बेँसी भनिने छैनन् । त्यो हत्याको बेँसी भनिनेछ । तोपेतमा खाली ठाउँ रहुञ्जेलसम्म तिनीहरूले त्यहा लाशहरू गाड्नेछन् ।
33 And the carcasses of this people shall be meat for the fowls of the air, and for the beasts of the earth, and there shall be non to drive them away.
यो जातिका लाशहरू आकाशका चराहरू र जङ्गली जनावरहरूका लागि आहारा हुनेछन्, र तिनीहरूलाई तर्साएर लखेट्ने कोही पनि हुनेछैन ।
34 And I will cause to cease out of the cities of Juda, and out of the streets of Jerusalem, the voice of joy, and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride: for the land shall be desolate.
यहूदाका सहरहरू र यरूशलेमका सडकहरूबाट हर्ष र आनन्दको आवाज, दुलहा र दुलहीको सोरलाई म अन्त्य गरिदिनेछु, किनकि यो देश उजाड हुनेछ ।”
