< Jeremiah 26 >

1 In the beginning of the reign of Jehoiakim son of Josiah king of Judah, came this word from Yahweh saying:
योशियाहका छोरा यहोयाकीमको शासनकालको सुरुमा परमप्रभुको यो वचन मकहाँ आयो,
2 Thus, saith Yahweh, —Stand thou in the court of the house of Yahweh, and speak unto all the cities of Judah who are entering in to bow down in the house of Yahweh, all the words which I have commanded thee to speak unto them, —do not thou keep back a word:
“परमप्रभु यसो भन्‍नुहुन्छ, 'मेरो मन्दिरको चोकमा खडा हो र मेरो मन्दिरमा आराधना गर्ने आउने यहूदाका सबै सहरको बारेमा भन् । तिनीहरूलाई भन्‍न मैले तँलाई आज्ञा गरेका सबै वचन घोषणा गर् । एउटै शब्‍द पनि नछोड ।
3 Peradventure they will hear, and return every man from his wicked way, —and I shall repent as to the calamity which I am devising to execute upon them because of the wickedness of their doings:
सयद तिनीहरूले सुन्‍नेछन्, अनि हरेक मानिस आफ्ना दुष्‍ट चालहरूबाट फर्कनेछन्, यसरी तिनीहरूका अभ्यासको दुष्‍टताको कारणले मैले तिनीहरूमाथि ल्याउने योजना गरेको विपत्ति ल्याउनबाट मैले आफ्‍नो मन म बद्लनेछु ।
4 Therefore shalt thou say unto them Thus, saith Yahweh, —If ye will not hearken unto me, To walk in my law which I have set before you;
त्यसैले तैंले तिनीहरूलाई यसो भन्‍नुपर्छ, 'परमप्रभु यसो भन्‍नुहुन्छः मैले तिमीहरूको अगि राखिदिएको मेरो व्यवस्थाअनुसार हिंड्नलाई तिमीहरूले मेरो कुरा सुनेनौ भने,
5 To hearken unto the words of my servants the prophets, whom I am sending unto you, even, betimes, sending, though ye have not hearkened,
मैले तिमीहरूकहाँ निरन्तर रूपमा पठाइरहेका मेरा दास, अगमवक्ताहरूका वचनहरू तिमीहरूले सुनेनौ भने, तर तिमीहरूले सुनेका छैनौ,
6 Then I will make this house like Shiloh, —And, this city, will I make a contempt to all the nations of the earth.
तब म यो मन्दिरलाई शीलोजस्तै बनाउनेछु । म यस सहरलाई पृथ्वीका सबै जातिको दृष्‍टिमा श्रापको पात्र बनाउनेछु' ।”
7 So the priests and the prophets, and all the people, heard Jeremiah speaking these words in the house of Yahweh.
यर्मियाले परमप्रभुको मन्दिरमा यी वचन घोषणा गरेका पुजारीहरू, अगमवक्ताहरू र सबै मानिसले सुने ।
8 And it came to pass when Jeremiah had made an end of speaking all that Yahweh had commanded him to speak unto all the people, that the priests and the prophets, and all the people laid hold of him, saying—Thou shalt, surely die!
त्‍यसैले जब परमप्रभुले यर्मियालाई भन्‍नू भनी आज्ञा गर्नुभएका वचन तिनले घोषणा गरेर सके, तब पुजारीहरू, अगमवक्ताहरू र सबै मानिसले तिनलाई समाते र भने, “तँ निश्‍चय नै मर्नेछस् ।
9 Why hast thou prophesied in the name of Yahweh, saying, Like Shiloh, shall this house become, And this city, shall be desolate, without inhabitant? And all the people, were gathered together unto Jeremiah in the house of Yahweh,
यो मन्दिर शीलोझैं हुनेछ र यो सहर बासिन्दारहित उजाड हुनेछ भनेर किन परमप्रभुको नाउँमा अगमवाणी गरिस्?” किनकि सबै मानिसले परमप्रभुको मन्दिरमा यर्मियाको विरुद्धमा भिड जम्मा गरेका थिए ।
10 When the princes of Judah heard these things, then came they up out of the house of the king, unto the house of Yahweh, —and took their seats in the opening of the new gate of Yahweh.
तब यहूदाका अधिकारीहरूले यो खबर सुने, र तिनीहरू राजाको महलदेखि परमप्रभुको मन्दिरमा गए । तिनीहरू परमप्रभुको मन्दिरको नयाँ मूल ढोकामा बसे ।
11 Then spake the priests and the prophets unto the princes, and unto all the people, saying, —Worthy of death, is this man, because he hath prophesied against this city, as ye have heard with your own ears,
पुजारीहरू र अगमवक्ताहरूले अधिकारीहरू र सबै मानिससँग बोले । तिनीहरूले भने, “यो मानिसलाई मार्नु ठिक छ, किनकि यसले यो सहरको विरुद्धमा अगमवाणी बोलेका छ, जस्तो तपाईंहरूले आफ्नै कानले सुन्‍नुभएको छ ।”
12 Then spake Jeremiah, unto all the princes and unto all the people, saying, —Yahweh, sent me to prophesy against this house and against this city, all the words that ye have heard.
त्यसैले यर्मियाले सबै अधिकारी र सबै मानिससँग बोले र भने, “तपाईंहरूले सुन्‍नुभएका यी वचन भन्‍न परमप्रभुले मलाई यो मन्दिर र यो सहरको विरुद्धमा अगमवाणी बोल्न पठाउनुभएको छ ।
13 Now, therefore amend your ways, and your doings, and hearken unto the voice of Yahweh your God, —that Yahweh may repent him, as to the calamity which he hath spoken concerning you.
त्यसैले अब, आ-आफ्ना चाल र अभ्यासहरू सुधार्नुहोस् र परमप्रभु तपाईंहरूका परमेश्‍वरको सोर सुन्‍नुहोस्, ताकि उहाँले तपाईंहरूको विरुद्धमा घोषणा गर्नुभएको विपत्तिको विषयमा उहाँले आफ्नो मन बद्लनुहुनेछ ।
14 But, I, behold me in your hand, —do with me as may be good and right in your eyes;
मेरो आफ्‍नै बारेमा, मलाई हेर्नुहोस्, म आफै तपाईंहरूकै हातमा छु । तपाईंहरूको दृष्‍टिमा जे ठिक र उचित लाग्छ, मलाई त्यही गर्नुहोस् ।
15 Only, ye must, know, that If, ye, do put me, to death, verily innocent blood, are ye laying upon yourselves, and against this city, and against her inhabitants, —for of a truth, did Yahweh send me unto you, to speak in your ears, all these words.
तर तपाईंहरूले निश्‍चय नै जान्‍नुपर्छ, कि तपाईंहरूले मलाई मार्नुभयो भने, तब तपाईंहरूले निर्दोष रगतको दोष आफैमा, यो सहरमा र यहाँका बासिन्‍दाहरूमा ल्‍याउँदै हुनुहुन्‍छ, र किनकि तपाईंहरूले सुन्‍ने गरी यी वचन घोषणा गर्न साँच्‍चै नै परमप्रभुले मलाई तपाईंहरूकहाँ पठाउनुभएको हो ।”
16 Then said the princes, and all the people, unto the priests and unto the prophets, —There is nothing in this man worthy of death, for in the name of Yahweh our God, hath he spoken unto us.
तब अधिकारीहरू र सबै मानिसले पुजारीहरू र अगमवक्ताहरूलाई भने, “यो मानिस मर्न लायक छैन, किनकि उसले परमप्रभु हाम्रा परमेश्‍वरको नाउँमा यी कुराहरूको घोषणा गरेको छ ।”
17 Then rose up men from among the elders of the land, and spake unto all the convocation of the people saying:
तब देशका धर्म-गुरुहरूका माझबाट मानिसहरू खडा भए, र सारा मानिसहरूको सभालाई भने,
18 Micah the Morashtite, was prophesying, in the days of Hezekiah king of Judah, —and he spake unto all the people of Judah, saying, thus, saith Yahweh of hosts—Zion, as a field, shall be plowed, And, Jerusalem, into heaps of ruins, shall be turned, And, the mountain of the house, [be] like mounds in a jungle,
तिनीहरूले भने “मोरेशेतका मीकाले यहूदाका राजा हिजकियाको शासनकालमा अगमवाणी बोल्दै थिए । तिनले यहूदाका सबै मानिससँग बोले र भने, 'सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभु यसो भन्‍नुहुन्छः सियोन जोतिएको खेतझैं हुनेछ, यरूशलेमचाहिं गिटीको थुप्रो हुनेछ र मन्दिरको डाँडाचाहिं झाडीझैं हुनेछ ।'
19 Did Hezekiah king of Judah and all Judah put, him to death? Did he not revere Yahweh, and appease the face of Yahweh? And did not Yahweh repent him, as to the calamity which he had spoken against them? We, therefore are doing a great wickedness against our own lives!
के यहूदाका राजा हिजकिया र यहूदाका सारा मानिसले तिनलाई मारे त? के तिनले परमप्रभुको भय मान्‍ने काम गरे र परमप्रभुले तिनीहरूमाथि ल्याउने घोषणा गर्नुभएको विपत्ति ल्याउनबाट उहाँको मन बद्लने गरी के तिनले परमप्रभुको मुहारलाई शान्त पारेनन् र? यसरी हामी आफ्नै प्राणको विरुद्धमा अझै ठुलो दुष्‍ट काम गर्ने र?”
20 There was however, a man, prophesying in the name of Yahweh, Urijah, son of Shemaiah, of Keriath-jearim, —who prophesied against this city, and against this land, according to all the words of Jeremiah.
त्यसै बेला त्यहाँ परमप्रभुको नाउँमा अगमवाणी बोल्ने अर्का मानिस, किर्यत-यारीमा बस्‍ने शमायाहका छोरा उरियाह पनि थिए । यर्मियाका वचनहरूसित सहमत हुने गरी तिनले पनि यस सहर र यस देशको विरुद्धमा अगमवाणी बोले ।
21 And when King Jehoiakim, and all his mighty men, and all the princes, heard his words, then the king sought to put him to death, —but Urijah heard, and feared and fled and entered Egypt.
तर जब राजा यहोयाकीम, तिनका सबै सिपाही र अधिकारीहरूले तिनको वचन सुने, तब राजाले तिनलाई मार्न खोजे, तर उरियाहले यो कुरा सुने र तिनी डराए । त्यसैले तिनी भागे र मिश्रमा गए ।
22 Then did King Jehoiakim send men to Egypt, —even Elnathan son of Achbor, and certain men with him, into Egypt
तब राजा यहोयाकीमले मिश्रमा अक्बोरका छोरा एल्नातान र त्यसका साथमा केही मानिसहरू उरियाहको पछिपछि मिश्रमा पठाए ।
23 and they brought forth Urijah out of Egypt, and took him in unto King Jehoiakim, who smote him with the sword, —and cast out his dead body among the graves of the sons of the people.
तिनीहरूले उरियाहलाई मिश्रबाट ल्‍याए र तिनलाई राजा यहोयाकीमकहाँ ल्याए । तब यहोयाकीमले तिनलाई तरवारले मारे, र तिनको लाशलाई साधारण मानिसका लाशहरू भएको ठाउँमा पठाए ।
24 Howbeit the hand of Ahikam son of Shaphan, turned out to be with Jeremiah, —so as not to give him up into the hand of the people, to put him to death.
तर शापानका छोरा अहीकामको हात यर्मियासित थियो । त्यसैले तिनलाई मारिनलाई मानिसहरूका हातमा दिइएन ।
