Numbers 8
1 YHWH spoke to Moses, saying,
परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्नुभयो,
2 "Speak to Aaron, and tell him, 'When you light the lamps, the seven lamps shall give light in front of the lampstand.'"
“हारूनलाई भन् । 'तैँले सातवटा बत्ती बाल्दा तिनीहरूले सामदानको अघिल्तिर प्रकाश दिनुपर्छ ।'
3 Aaron did so. He lit its lamps to light the area in front of the lampstand, as YHWH commanded Moses.
हारूनले यसै गरे । परमप्रभुले आज्ञा गर्नुभएझैँ हारूनले सामदान अघिल्तिर प्रकाश दिनलाई बत्तीहरू बाले ।
4 This was the workmanship of the lampstand, beaten work of gold. From its base to its flowers, it was beaten work: according to the pattern which YHWH had shown Moses, so he made the lampstand.
सामदान यस किसिमले बनाइएको थियो र परमप्रभुले मोशालाई यसको निम्ति नमुना देखाउनुभयो । यो आधारदेखि टुप्पोसम्म फूलजस्ता कचौरालाई पिटेको सुनको हुनुपर्थ्यो ।
5 YHWH spoke to Moses, saying,
फेरि परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्नुभयो,
6 "Take the Levites from among the children of Israel, and cleanse them.
“लेवीहरूलाई इस्राएलका मानिसहरूबाट ले र तिनीहरूलाई शुद्ध पार् ।
7 You shall do this to them, to cleanse them: sprinkle the water of cleansing on them, let them shave their whole bodies with a razor, and let them wash their clothes, and cleanse themselves.
तिनीहरूलाई शुद्ध पार्न यसो गर्ः तिनीहरूमाथि प्रायश्चित्तको पानी छर्किदे । तिनीहरूको पुरै शरीर, तिनीहरूको लुगा धुन लगा र यसरी तिनीहरूलाई शुद्ध पार् ।
8 Then let them take a young bull, and its meal offering, fine flour mixed with oil; and another young bull you shall take for a sin offering.
त्यसपछि तिनीहरूलाई एउटा बाछो र तेलले मुछेको मसिनो पिठोको अन्नबलि ल्याउन लगा । तिनीहरूले पापबलिको रूपमा अर्को एउटा बाछो पनि ल्याऊन् ।
9 You shall present the Levites before the Tent of Meeting. You shall assemble the whole congregation of the children of Israel.
तैँले लेवीहरूलाई भेट हुने पालको अघि ल्यानेछस् र इस्राएलका मानिसहरूको सारा समुदाय भेला हुनेछन् ।
10 You shall present the Levites before YHWH. The children of Israel shall lay their hands on the Levites,
तैँले लेवीहरूलाई परमप्रभुको सामु ल्याउँदा इस्राएलका मानिसहरूले आफ्नो हात लेवीहरूमाथि राख्नुपर्छ ।
11 and Aaron shall offer the Levites before YHWH for a wave offering, on the behalf of the children of Israel, that it may be theirs to do the service of YHWH.
हारूनले लेवीहरूलाई इस्राएलका मानिसहरूको तर्फबाट डोलाइने बलिको रूपमा चढाउनुपर्छ, ताकि तिनीहरूले परमप्रभुको सेवाको काम गरून् ।
12 The Levites shall lay their hands on the heads of the bulls, and you shall offer the one for a sin offering, and the other for a burnt offering to YHWH, to make atonement for the Levites.
लेवीहरूले साँढेहरूमाथि तिनीहरूका हात राख्नुपर्छ ।
13 You shall set the Levites before Aaron, and before his sons, and offer them as a wave offering to YHWH.
तैँले लेवीहरूका प्रायश्चित्तको निम्ति एउटा साँढेलाई पापबलिको रूपमा र अर्कोलाई होमबलिको रूपमा चढाउनुपर्छ । तैँले लेवीहरूलाई हारून र त्यसका छोराहरूको सामु ले र तिनीहरूलाई डोलाइने बलिको रूपमा चढा ।
14 Thus you shall separate the Levites from among the children of Israel, and the Levites shall be mine.
१तैँले लेवीहरूलाई इस्राएलका मानिसहरूबाट यसरी अलग गर् । लेवीहरू मेरा हुन् ।
15 "After that, the Levites shall go in to do the service of the Tent of Meeting: and you shall cleanse them, and offer them as a wave offering.
त्यसपछि लेवीहरू भेट हुने पालमा सेवा गर्न जानुपर्छ । तैँले तिनीहरूलाई शुद्ध पार्नुपर्छ । तैँले तिनीहरूलाई डोलाइने बलिको रूपमा चढाउनुपर्छ ।
16 For they are wholly given to me from among the children of Israel; instead of all who open the womb, even the firstborn of all the children of Israel, I have taken them to me.
यसो गर्, किनभने तिनीहरू इस्राएलका मानिसहरूबाट पूर्ण रूपमा मेरा हुन् । तिनीहरूले गर्भ खोल्ने इस्राएलका सबै सन्तानका पहिले जन्मेका हरेक पुरुष बालकको स्थान लिनेछन् । मैले लेवीहरूलाई आफ्नै निम्ति लिएको छु ।
17 For all the firstborn among the children of Israel are mine, both man and animal. On the day that I struck all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, I sanctified them for myself.
इस्राएलका मानिसहरूको पशु र मानिस दुवैबाट पहिले जन्मेकाहरू सबै मेरा हुन् । मैले मिश्र देशमा तिनीहरूका सबै पहिले जन्मेकाहरूलाई लिएको दिन नै मैले तिनीहरूलाई आफ्नै निम्ति अलग गरेँ ।
18 I have taken the Levites instead of all the firstborn among the children of Israel.
मैले लेवीहरूलाई इस्राएलका मानिसहरूबाट सबै पहिले जन्मेकाहरूको सट्टामा लिएको छु ।
19 I have given the Levites as a gift to Aaron and to his sons from among the children of Israel, to do the service of the children of Israel in the Tent of Meeting, and to make atonement for the children of Israel; that there be no plague among the children of Israel, when the children of Israel come near to the sanctuary."
मैले लेवीहरूलाई हारून र त्यसका छोराहरूलाई उपहारको रूपमा दिएको छु । मैले तिनीहरूलाई इस्राएलका मानिसहरूबाट भेट हुने पालमा इस्राएलका मानिसहरूको काम गर्नलाई लिएको छु । मैले तिनीहरूलाई इस्राएलका मानिसहरूका निम्ति प्रायश्चित्त गर्नलाई दिएको छु, ताकि तिनीहरू पवित्र स्थानको नजिक आउँदा मानिसहरूमाथि कुनै विपत्ति नआओस् ।
20 Moses, and Aaron, and all the congregation of the children of Israel did so to the Levites. According to all that YHWH commanded Moses concerning the Levites, so the children of Israel did to them.
मोशा, हारून र इस्राएलका मानिसहरूका सारा समुदायले लेवीसँगै यो गरे । परमप्रभुले लेवीबारे मोशालाई आज्ञा दिनुभएबमोजिम तिनीहरूले सबै थोक गरे । इस्राएलका मानिसहरूले तिनीहरूसँग यसै गरे ।
21 The Levites purified themselves from sin, and they washed their clothes; and Aaron offered them for a wave offering before YHWH; and Aaron made atonement for them to cleanse them.
लेवीहरूले आफैलाई शुद्ध पारे र आ-आफ्ना लुगाहरू धोए, अनि हारूनले तिनीहरूलाई परमप्रभुको निम्ति डोलाइने बलिको रूपमा चढाए र तिनले तिनीहरूलाई शुद्ध पार्न तिनीहरूको निम्ति प्रायश्चित्त गरे ।
22 After that, the Levites went in to do their service in the Tent of Meeting before Aaron, and before his sons: as YHWH had commanded Moses concerning the Levites, so they did to them.
त्यसपछि लेवीहरू हारून र तिनका छोराहरूको अधीनमा रहेर तिनीहरूको काम गर्न भेट हुने पालभित्र गए । यो परमप्रभुले लेवीहरूको बारेमा मोशालाई आज्ञा गर्नुभएअनुसार थियो । तिनीहरूले सबै लेवीलाई यसो गरे ।
23 YHWH spoke to Moses, saying,
परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्नुभयो,
24 "This is that which belongs to the Levites: from twenty-five years old and upward they shall go in to wait on the service in the work of the Tent of Meeting;
“यो सबै पच्चिस वर्ष र त्यसभन्दा माथिका लेवीहरूका निम्ति हो । तिनीहरू भेट हुने पालमा सेवा गर्न दलमा सहभागी हुनुपर्छ ।
25 and from the age of fifty years they shall cease waiting on the work, and shall serve no more,
तिनीहरू पचास वर्षको भएपछि यसरी सेवा गर्न छोड्नुपर्छ । त्यस उमेरमा तिनीहरूले सेवा गर्नुहुँदैन ।
26 but shall minister with their brothers in the Tent of Meeting, to perform the duty, and shall do no service. You shall do thus to the Levites concerning their duties."
तिनीहरूले भेट हुने पालमा सेवा गरिरहने तिनीहरूका भाइहरूलाई सहायता गर्न सक्छन्, तर तिनीहरूले सेवा गर्नुहुँदैन । तैँले लेवीहरूलाई यी कुराहरूमा निर्देशन दिनुपर्छ ।”
