< Jeremiah 17 >

1 "The sin of Judah is written with a pen of iron, and with the point of a diamond: it is engraved on the tablet of their heart, and on the horns of your altars;
“यहूदाको पाप हिराको निब भएको फलामको कलमले लेखिएको छ । त्‍यसलाई तिनीहरूका हृदयका पाटी र तिनका वेदीहरूका सिङहरूमा कुँदिएको छ ।
2 while their children remember their altars and their Asherim by the green trees on the high hills.
तिनीहरूका बालबालिकाले तिनीहरूका वेदीहरू र तिनीहरूका अशेराका खम्बाहरूलाई सम्झन्छन्, जुन झ्याम्म परेका रुखहरूका छेउमा र अग्ला पहाडहरूमा थिए ।
3 My mountain in the field, I will give your substance and all your treasures for a spoil, and your high places, because of sin, throughout all your borders.
आफ्‍ना सबै इलाकामा तिमीहरूले गरेका पापको कारणले तिमीहरूका अग्ला ठाउँहरूसँगै खुला देशमा भएको मेरो पर्वत र तिमीहरूका धन-सम्पत्ति र तिमीहरूका सबै खजाना म लुटको मालको रूपमा दिनेछु ।
4 You, even of yourself, shall discontinue from your heritage that I gave you; and I will cause you to serve your enemies in the land which you do not know: for you have kindled a fire in my anger which shall burn forever."
मैले तिमीहरूलाई दिएको उत्तराधिकार तिमीहरूले गुमाउने छौ । तिमीहरूले नचिनेको देशमा म तिमीहरूलाई आफ्‍ना शत्रुहरूको दास तुल्याउनेछु, किनकि तिमीहरूले मेरो क्रोधमा आगो सल्काएका छौ, जुन सदासर्वदा बल्‍नेछ ।”
5 Thus says YHWH: "Cursed is the man who trusts in man, and makes flesh his arm, and whose heart departs from YHWH.
परमप्रभु भन्‍नुहुन्छ, “मानव-जातिमा भरोसा गर्ने व्यक्ति श्रापित होस् । त्यसले शरीरलाई आफ्नो शक्ति सम्झन्छ, तर आफ्नो हृदय परमप्रभुबाट टाढा लैजान्छ ।
6 For he shall be like the heath in the desert, and shall not see when good comes, but shall inhabit the parched places in the wilderness, a salt land and not inhabited.
त्यो अराबाको पोथ्रोझैं हुनेछ, र त्यसले कुनै असल कुरो आइरहेको देख्‍ने छैन । त्यो बासिन्दा नभएको उजाडस्थान, सुख्‍खा भूमिका चट्टानहरूमा बस्‍नेछ ।
7 Blessed is the man who trusts in YHWH, and whose confidence is in YHWH.
तर परमप्रभुमा भरोस गर्ने व्यक्ति धन्यको हो, किनकि परमप्रभु नै त्यसको दृढताको कारण हुनुहुन्छ ।
8 For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, who spreads out its roots by the river, and shall not fear when heat comes, but its leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit.
त्यो पानीको छेउमा रोपिएको बिरुवाजस्तै हुनेछ । यसका जरा खोलाको किनारमा फैलिएको हुनेछन् । जब ताप आउँछ तब त्‍यो डराउनेछैन, किनकि यसका पात सधैं हरिया हुन्छन् । खडेरीको वर्षमा यो चिन्तित हुँदैन, र यसले फल फलाउन छोड्‍दैन ।
9 The heart is deceitful above all things, and it is exceedingly corrupt: who can know it?
कुनै पनि कुराभन्दा हृदय बढी छली हुन्छ । यो रोगले ग्रस्त छ । यसलाई कसले बुझ्‍न सक्छ र?
10 I, YHWH, search the mind, I try the heart, even to give every man according to his ways, according to the fruit of his doings.
मनको खोजी गर्ने, हृदयको जाँच गर्ने परमप्रभु म नै हुँ । हरेक व्यक्तिको आफ्नो चालअनुसार, त्यसका कामहरूको फलअनुसार म त्यसलाई इनाम दिन्छु ।
11 As the partridge that sits on eggs which she has not laid, so is he who gets riches, and not by right; in the midst of his days they shall leave him, and at his end he shall be a fool."
तित्रोले आफूले नपारेको अण्डा ओथ्रने काम गर्छ । कोही मानिस अन्यायपूर्वक धनी बन्‍न सक्छ, तर त्‍यसका आधा उमेर सकिन्‍छन् तब ती धनले त्यसलाई छाड्नेछन्, र अन्त्यमा त्यो मूर्ख हुनेछ ।”
12 "A glorious throne, set on high from the beginning, is the place of our sanctuary.
सुरुदेखि नै उच्‍च पारिएको हाम्रो मन्दिरको ठाउँ एउटा महिमित सिंहासन हो ।
13 YHWH, the hope of Israel, all who forsake you shall be disappointed. Those who depart from me shall be written in the earth, because they have forsaken YHWH, the spring of living waters.
परमप्रभु नै इस्राएलको आशा हुनुहुन्छ । तपाईंलाई त्याग्‍नेहरू सबै लाजमा पर्नेछन् । देशमा तपाईंबाट तर्केर जानेहरू धुलोमा लेखिनेछन्, किनकि तिनीहरूले परमप्रभु, जिउँदो पानीको मूललाई त्यागेका छन् ।
14 Heal me, YHWH, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved: for you are my praise.
हे परमप्रभु, मलाई निको पार्नुहोस्, र म निको हुनेछु । मलाई छुटकारा दिनुहोस्, र मैले छुटकारा पाउनेछु । किनकि तपाईं नै मेरो प्रशंसाको गीत हुनुहुन्छ ।
15 Look, they tell me, 'Where is the word of YHWH? Let it come now.'
हेर्नुहोस्, तिनीहरू मलाई यसो भन्दैछन्, 'परमप्रभुको वचन कहाँ छ? त्‍यो आओस् ।'
16 As for me, I have not hurried from being a shepherd after you; neither have I desired the woeful day; you know: that which came out of my lips was before your face.
मेरो बारेमा, म तपाईंको अनुसरण गरेर गोठालो हुनदेखि भागेर म गइन । मैले विपत्तिको समयको प्रतीक्षा गरिनँ । मेरो जिब्रोबाट निस्केको घोषणाहरू तपाईं जान्‍नुहुन्छ । ती तपाईंकै उपस्थितिमा गरिएका थिए ।
17 Do not be a terror to me: you are my refuge in the day of evil.
मेरो लागि त्रास नबन्‍नुहोस् । सङ्कष्‍टको दिनमा तपाईं नै मेरो शरणस्थान हुनुहुन्छ ।
18 Let them be disappointed who persecute me, but let not me be disappointed; let them be dismayed, but do not let me be dismayed; bring on them the day of disaster, and destroy them with double destruction."
मेरो पिछा गर्नेहरू लाजमा परून्, तर मलाई लज्‍जित हुन नदिनुहोस् । तिनीहरू त्रासमा परून्, तर मलाई त्रासमा पर्न नदिनुहोस् । तिनीहरूको विरुद्धमा विपत्तिको दिन पठाउनुहोस्, र तिनीहरूलाई विनाशको दोब्बर भागले टुक्रा-टुक्रा पार्नुहोस् ।”
19 Thus said YHWH to me: "Go, and stand in the gate of the children of the people, through which the kings of Judah come in, and by which they go out, and in all the gates of Jerusalem;
परमप्रभुले मलाई यसो भन्‍नुभयो, “जा र मानिसहरूका मूल ढोकामा खडा हो, जहाँबाट यहूदाका राजाहरू प्रवेश गर्छन् र जहाँबाट तिनीहरू बाहिर निस्कन्छन् । त्यसपछि यरूशलेमका अन्य सबै ढोकामा खडा हो ।
20 and tell them, 'Hear the word of YHWH, you kings of Judah, and all Judah, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, that enter in by these gates:
तिनीहरूलाई भन्, 'यी ढोकाहरूबाट आवातजावत गर्ने हे सबै यहूदाका राजा, यहूदाका सबै मानिस र यरूशलेमका हरेक बासिन्दा हो, परमप्रभुको वचन सुन ।
21 Thus says YHWH, "Be careful, and bear no burden on the Sabbath day, nor bring it in by the gates of Jerusalem;
परमप्रभु यसो भन्‍नुहुन्छः आफ्‍नो जीवनको निम्‍ति होसियार होओ, र यरूशलेमका ढोकाहरूमा ल्याउन शबाथ-दिनमा भारी नबोक ।
22 neither carry forth a burden out of your houses on the Sabbath day holy, neither do any work: but make the Sabbath day, as I commanded your fathers.
शबाथ-दिनमा आफ्‍ना घरबाट भारी बोकेर बाहिर नल्याओ । मैले तिमीहरूका पुर्खाहरूलाई आज्ञा गरेझैं, शबाथ-दिनमा कुनै काम नगर्नू, तर त्यसलाई अलग गर्नू ।'”
23 But they did not listen, neither turn their ear, but made their neck stiff, that they might not hear, and might not receive instruction.
तर तिनीहरूले सुनेनन् वा ध्यानै दिएनन् । तिनीहरूले मेरा कुरा सुन्‍न नसकून् न त अनुशासनलाई स्वीकार गरून् भनेर तिनीहरू अटेरी भए ।
24 It shall happen, if you diligently listen to me," says YHWH, "to bring in no burden through the gates of this city on the Sabbath day, but to make the Sabbath day holy, to do no work in it;
यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो, तिमीहरूले साँच्‍चै मेरो कुरा सुन्यौ र शबाथ-दिनमा यस सहरका ढोकाहरूसम्म भारी बोकेर ल्‍याएनौ तर शबाथ-दिनलाई परमप्रभुको निम्ति अलग गर्‍यौ र त्‍यसमा कुनै काम गरेनौ भने,
25 then shall there enter in by the gates of this city kings and princes sitting on the throne of David, riding in chariots and on horses, they, and their officials, the men of Judah, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and this city shall remain forever.
राजाहरू, राजकुमारहरू, यहूदाका मानिसहरू, यरूशलेमका बासिन्दाहरू, तिनीहरूका अगुवाहरू र दाऊदको सिंहासनमा बस्‍नेहरू रथहरू र घोडाहरूमा चढेर यस सहरका ढोकाहरूमा आउनेछन्, अनि यो सहरमा सदासर्वदा मानिसको बसोबास हुनेछ ।
26 They shall come from the cities of Judah, and from the places around Jerusalem, and from the land of Benjamin, and from the lowland, and from the hill country, and from the Negev, bringing burnt offerings, and sacrifices, and meal offerings, and frankincense, and bringing sacrifices of thanksgiving, to the house of YHWH.
तिनीहरू यहूदाका सहरहरूबाट, यरूशलेमका चारैतिरबाट, बेन्यामीन इलाका र तराइबाट, पहाडहरूबाट र नेगेवबाट आउनेछन्, र तिनीहरूले होमबलि र बलिदानहरू, अन्‍नबलि र धुप, धन्यवादका बलिहरू परमप्रभुको मन्दिरमा ल्याउनेछन् ।
27 But if you will not listen to me to make the Sabbath day holy, and not to bear a burden and enter in at the gates of Jerusalem on the Sabbath day; then will I kindle a fire in its gates, and it shall devour the palaces of Jerusalem, and it shall not be quenched."'"
तर तिमीहरूले मेरो कुरा सुनेनौ, शबाथ-दिनलाई अलग गरेनौ र त्यस दिन गर्‍हौँ भारी नबोक भन्‍दा मानेनौ र यरूशलेमका ढोकाहरूभित्र प्रवेश गर्‍यौ भने, तब म यसका ढोकाहरूमा आगो सल्काउनेछु, र त्‍यसले यरूशलेमका किल्लाहरूलाई भस्म पार्नेछ, र त्‍यसलाई निभाउन सकिंदैन ।”
