Deuteronomy 16
1 “[Each year] honor Yahweh our God by celebrating the Passover [Festival] in the month of Abib [in early spring]. It was on a night in that month that Yahweh rescued your ancestors from Egypt.
आबीब महिनाको सम्झना राखेर परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्वरको सामु निस्तार-चाड मान्नू किनकि आबीब महिनामा नै परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्वरले तिमीहरूलाई रातमा मिश्रबाट ल्याउनुभयो ।
2 [In order to celebrate that festival], go to the place that Yahweh will choose [for you to worship him], and offer [there one young animal] from your cattle or your sheep to be the Passover sacrifice, to honor Yahweh [MTY].
परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्वरले आफ्नो पवित्र वासस्थानको रूपमा छान्नुहुने ठाउँमा गाईवस्तु र भेडा-बाख्राबाट उहाँको सामु निस्तार-चाडको बलि चढाउनू ।
3 [When you eat the Passover meal], the bread that you eat must not have yeast in it. You must eat this kind of bread, which will be called the bread of suffering/misery, for seven days. This is to help you to remember all during the time that you are alive that when your ancestors left Egypt, [where they were suffering because they were slaves], they left very quickly. [They did not put in yeast and wait for the dough to swell up].
योसँगै खमिर हालेको रोटी नखानू । सात दिनसम्म अखमिरी रोटी अर्थात् कष्टको रोटी खानू । किनकि तिमीहरू हतारमा मिश्र देशबाट निस्केर आयौ । तिमीहरू मिश्र देशबाट निस्केर आएको दिनलाई याद राख्न तिमीहरूका जीवनभरि यसको पालन गर्नू ।
4 [During that festival], you must not have any yeast in any house in your land for seven days. Furthermore, the meat [of the animals] that you sacrifice on the evening of the first day [of the Passover Festival must be eaten during that night]; do not allow any of it to remain until the next day.
सात दिनसम्म तिमीहरूका सबै सिमानाभित्र कुनै पनि खमिर देखिनुहुँदैन । पहिलो दिनको साँझमा तिमीहरूले चढाउने बलिको कुनै पनि मासु भोलि बिहानसम्म रहनुहुँदैन ।
5 “To honor Yahweh our God, you must offer the Passover sacrifice only at the place that he chooses for you [to worship him]; do not offer that sacrifice in any other town in the land that Yahweh is giving to you. Offer that sacrifice when the sun is setting, at the same time of day that your ancestors [started to] leave Egypt.
परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्वरले दिनुहुने जुनसुकै सहरमा तिमीहरूले निस्तार-चाडको बलि नचढाउनू ।
बरु, परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्वरले आफ्नो पवित्र स्थानको रूपमा छान्नुहुने ठाउँमा त्यो चढाउनू । तिमीहरू मिश्रबाट निस्केर आएको वर्षको समय पारेर सूर्योदयको बेला साँझमा निस्तार-चाडको बलि चढाउनू ।
7 Boil [the meat] and eat it at the place [of worship] that Yahweh our God chooses. The next morning, you may return to your tents.
परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्वरले छान्नुहुने ठाउँमा त्यसलाई पोलेर खानू । तिमीहरू बिहान फर्केर आ-आफ्ना पालमा जानू ।
8 Each day for six days the bread that you eat must have no yeast in it. On the seventh day, you must all gather to worship Yahweh our God. [It will be a day of rest]; you must not do any work on that day.”
छ दिनसम्म तिमीहरूले अखमिरी रोटी खानू । सातौँ दिनमा परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्वरको सामु पवित्र सभा हुने छ । त्यस दिन तिमीहरूले कुनै काम नगर्नू ।
9 “[Each year], from the day that you start to harvest your grain, count seven weeks.
तिमीहरूले आफ्ना लागि सात दिन गन्नू । पाकेको बाली काट्न सुरु गर्ने समयदेखि तिमीहरूले सात दिन गन्नू ।
10 Then, to honor Yahweh our God, celebrate the Harvest Festival. Do that by bringing to him an offering [of grain]. Yahweh has blessed you [by causing it to grow in your fields during that year]. If you had a big harvest, bring a big offering. If you had a small harvest, bring a small offering.
परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्वरले तिमीहरूलाई दिनुभएको आशिष्मुताबिक तिमीहरूले दिने स्वैच्छिक बलिको योगदानसहित परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्वरका लागि साताहरूको चाड मान्नू ।
11 [Each married couple] should be joyful in the presence of Yahweh. Their children, their servants, the descendants of Levi [who are in that town], and the foreigners, orphans, and widows [who are living among you], should also be joyful. Bring those offerings to the place of worship that Yahweh will choose.
परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्वरले पवित्र वासस्थानको रूपमा छान्नुहुने ठाउँमा तिमीहरू, तिमीहरूका छोराछोरी, तिमीहरूका कमारा-कमारी, सहरभित्र भएको लेवी र परदेशीसाथै तिमीहरूका बिचमा भएका अनाथ र विधवाले परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्वरको सामु आनन्द मनाओ ।
12 [“When you celebrate these festivals] by obeying these commands, remember that your ancestors were previously slaves in Egypt.”
तिमीहरू मिश्रमा कमारा थियो भनी तिमीहरूले याद गर्नू । तिमीहरूले यी विधिहरू मान्नू र पालन गर्नू ।
13 “[Each year], after you have threshed all your grain and pressed [the juice from] all your grapes, you must celebrate the Festival of [Living in Temporary] Shelters for seven days.
तिमीहरूका खला र दाखको कोलबाट सबै फसल जम्मा गरिसकेपछि तिमीहरूले सात दिनसम्म छाप्रो-वासको चाड मान्नू ।
14 [Each married couple] along with their children, their servants, the descendants of Levi [who are in that town], and the foreigners, orphans, and widows [who are living among you], should be joyful in the presence of Yahweh.
तिमीहरू, तिमीहरूका छोराछोरी, तिमीहरूका कमारा-कमारी, लेवी र परदेशीसाथै तिमीहरूका सहरभित्र भएका अनाथ र विधवाले चाड अवधिमा आनन्द मनाओ ।
15 Honor Yahweh our God by celebrating this festival for seven days in the place that Yahweh chooses [for you to worship him]. You should all be joyful, because Yahweh will have blessed your harvest and all the other work that you have done.
परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्वरले छान्नुहुने ठाउँमा उहाँको लागि सात दिनसम्म यो चाड मान्नू किनकि परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्वरले तिमीहरूका सबै फसल र तिमीहरूका हातका सबै काममा आशिष् दिनुहुने छ र तिमीहरू पूर्ण रूपमा आनन्दित हुने छौ ।
16 “So, each year all of you Israeli men must gather [with your families] to worship Yahweh our God at the place that he will choose, [to celebrate three festivals]: The Passover Festival, the Harvest Festival, and the Festival of Living in Temporary Shelters. Each of you men must bring [LIT] an offering [for Yahweh to these festivals]
परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्वरले छान्नुहुने ठाउँमा वर्षको तिन पटक तिमीहरूका सबै पुरुष उहाँको सामु खडा होओः अखमिरी रोटीको चाडमा, साताहरूको चाडमा र छाप्रो-वासको चाडमा । परमप्रभुको सामु कोही पनि रित्तो हात नजानू ।
17 in proportion to the blessings that Yahweh has given you [during that year].”
बरु, आफूले सकेजति हरेकले दिनू ताकि परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्वरले तिमीहरूलाई दिनुभएको आशिष्लाई तिमीहरूले जान्न सक ।
18 “Appoint judges and other officials throughout your tribes, in all the towns [in the land] that Yahweh our God is giving to you. They must judge people fairly/justly.
परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्वरले तिमीहरूलाई दिनुहुने तिमीहरूका सबै सहरमा न्यायकर्ता र अधिकारीहरू नियुक्त गर्नू । तिमीहरूका हरेक कुलबाट तिनीहरूलाई छान्नू, र तिनीहरूले मानिसहरूको निष्पक्ष न्याय गरून् ।
19 They must not judge unjustly. They must not favor one person more than another. The judges must not accept bribes, because if a judge accepts a bribe, even if he is wise and honest, it will be very difficult for him to judge fairly [IDM]; [he will do what the person who gave him the bribe wants him to do and declare that] the righteous/innocent people [must be punished].
तिमीहरूले जबरजस्ती न्याय हरण नगर । पक्षपात नगर न त घुस लेओ किनकि घुसले बुद्धिमानीहरूको आँखालाई अन्धो तुल्याई धर्मीहरूका वचनलाई बङ्ग्याइदिन्छ ।
20 You must be completely fair and just [DOU], in order that you will enter and occupy the land that Yahweh our God is giving to you.”
न्यायको मात्र पछि लाग ताकि परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्वरले तिमीहरूले दिनुहुने देशलाई अधिकार गरी त्यहाँ तिमीहरू बस्न सक्ने छौ ।
21 “When you make an altar to worship Yahweh our God, do not put next to it any wooden statue [that represents] the goddess Asherah.
तिमीहरूले आफ्ना लागि परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्वरको वेदीको छेउमा अशेरा देवीको निम्ति कुनै पनि खम्बा खडा नगर्नू ।
22 And do not set up any [stone] pillar [to worship any idol, because] Yahweh hates them.”
तिमीहरूले आफ्ना लागि कुनै चोखा ढुङ्गा खडा नगर्नू जसलाई परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्वरले घृणा गर्नुहुन्छ ।
