Jeremiah 8
1 Yahweh says, “At the time [that your corpses are scattered on the ground], [your enemies will] break open the graves of your kings and [other] officials who lived in Judah, and the graves of your priests and prophets and other people who lived there.
“यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो, त्यस बेला तिनीहरूले चिहानहरूबाट यहूदाका राजाहरू, यसका अधिकारीहरू, पुजारीहरू, अगमवक्ताहरू र यरूशलेमका बासिन्दाहरूका हड्डीहरू निकाल्नेछन् ।
2 They will take out their bones [from their graves] and [dishonor them by] scattering them on the ground under the sun and the moon and the stars— those are the gods which my people loved and served and worshiped. No one will gather up their bones and bury them [again]; they will remain scattered on the ground like dung.
त्यसपछि तिनीहरूले सूर्य, चन्द्रमा र आकाशका सबै ताराको प्रकाशमा तिनलाई फैलाउनेछन् । तिनीहरूले आकाशका यी कुराहरूलाई पछ्याएका छन्, सेवा गरेका छन्, तिनको खोजी गरेका छन् र पुजा गरेका छन् । हड्डीहरू फेरि जम्मा गरिने र गाडिने छैनन् । ती जमिनको सतहमा मलझैं परिरहनेछन् ।
3 And all the people of this wicked nation [who are still alive and] whom I have exiled to other countries will say, ‘We would prefer to die than to continue to stay alive [here in these countries].’ [That will be true because I], Yahweh, have said it.”
हरेक बाँकी रहेको ठाउँ जहाँ मैले तनीहरूलाई धपाएको छु, त्यहाँ तिनीहरूले आफ्नो निम्ति जीवनको साटो मृत्यु रोज्नेछन्, यो सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभुको घोषण हो ।
4 [Yahweh said to me, “Jeremiah], tell the people that this is what [I], Yahweh, am saying to them: ‘When people fall down, they get up again, do they not [RHQ]? When people are going along a road and find out that they are walking on the wrong road, they go back [and find the correct road], do they not [RHQ]?
त्यसैले तिनीहरूलाई भन्, “परमप्रभु यसो भन्नुहुन्छ, 'के कोही लडेर उठ्दैन र? के कोही हरायो भने त्यो फर्केर आउन खोज्दैन र?
5 [Yes, they do], so why do these people [of Judah] continue [trusting in those idols that have deceived them]? They continue turning away from me, [even though I have warned them].
यरूशलेमका मानिसहरू किन स्थायी विश्वासहीनतामा तर्केर गएका छन् त? तिनीहरू विश्वासघातमा टाँसिरहन्छन्, र पश्चात्ताप गर्न इन्कार गर्छन् ।
6 I have listened carefully [DOU] [to what they say], but they do not say what they should say. Not one of them is sorry for having sinned. No one says, “I have done [RHQ] wicked things.” They are [sinning and] doing what they want to as fast as [SIM] a horse that is running into a battle.
मैले ध्यान दिएँ, र सुनें, तर तिनीहरूले सही कुरा बोलेनन् । आफ्नो दुष्टताको लागि कोही पनि दुःखी भएन, 'मैले के गरेको छु?' भनेर सोध्ने कुनै व्यक्ति छैन । घोडा युद्धमा गएझैं तिनीहरू सबै आफूलाई इच्छा लागेको ठाउँमा जान्छन् ।
7 All the birds [that fly south for the (winter/cold season)] know the time that they need to fly south, and they all return at the right time the following year. But my people [are not like those birds]! They do not know what [I], Yahweh, require them to do.
आकाशको सारस अनि ढुकुर, गौँथली र सारिका चरा पनि आफ्नो समय थाहा छ । तिनीहरू ठिक समयमा बसाइँ सर्छन्, तर मेरा मानिसहरूले परमप्रभुका आज्ञाहरू जान्दैनन् ।
8 Your men who teach you [the laws that Moses wrote] have been saying false things [about those laws]. [So], why [RHQ] do they [continue] saying, “We are [very] wise [because] we have the laws of Yahweh”?
'परमप्रभुको व्यवस्था हामीसित भएको हुनाले हामी बुद्धिमान छौं' भनी तिमीहरू कसरी भन्न सक्छौ? वास्तवमा, हेर, शास्त्रीहरूको छलपूर्ण कलमले धलको सृजना गरेको छ ।
9 Those teachers, who think that [IRO] they are wise, will be ashamed/disgraced and dismayed when they are taken [to other countries by their enemies] because they sinned by rejecting what I told them. Truly, they were not [RHQ] very wise to do that!
बुद्धिमान् मानिसहरू लज्जित हुनेछन् । तिनीहरू हताश भएका छन् र पासोमा परेका छन् । हेर, तिनीहरूले परमप्रभुको वचन इन्कार गर्छन्, यसैले तिनीहरूको बुद्धिको के काम?
10 So, I will give their wives to other men; I will give their fields to [the enemy soldiers] who conquer them. All the people, including those who are important and those who are not important, deceive [others] in order to obtain their possessions. Even [my] prophets and my priests do that.
त्यसैले म तिनीहरूका पत्नीहरू अरूलाई दिनेछु, र तिनीहरूका खेतबारी अधिकार गर्नेहरूलाई म ति दिनेछु, किनकि सानादेखि ठुलासम्म सबै जना बेइमान आर्जनको लागि लोभी छन् । अगमवक्तादेखि पुजारीसम्म सबैले छलको अभ्यास गर्छन् ।
11 [They act as though the sins of my people] are not serious, [like] [MET] wounds that do not need to be cleaned and bandaged. They tell the people that everything will go well with them, [but that is not true]; things will not go well with them.
शान्ति नै नहुँदा पनि 'शान्ति, शान्ति' भनेर तिनीहरूले मेरा मानिसहरूको चोटलाई अलिअलि मात्र निको पारेका छन् ।
12 They should be [RHQ] ashamed when they do disgusting things [RHQ], but they do not even know how to show on their faces that they are ashamed [about their sins]. So, [they will be killed, and] their corpses [also] will lie among the corpses of others who have been slaughtered [by their enemies]. They will be killed when I punish them.
तिनीहरूले घृणित कामहरू गर्दा के तिनीहरू लज्जित भए? तिनीहरू लज्जित भएनन् । कसरी शर्म मान्ने भन्ने कुरा पनि तिनीहरूलाई थाहा भएन । त्यसैले पतन भएकाहरूका बिचमा तिनीहरू पतन हुनेछन् । तिनीहरूलाई दण्ड दिइँदा तिनीहरू तल खसालिने छन्, परमप्रभु भन्नुहुन्छ ।
13 I will [allow their enemies to] take away the figs and grapes that the people would have harvested from their fields. Their fruit trees will all wither. They will not receive [all] the blessings that I prepared for them. [This will certainly happen because I], Yahweh, have said it.’”
म तिनीहरूलाई पूर्ण रूपमा हटाइदिने छु, यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो । दाखका बोटहरूमा दाख हुनेछैन, न त अञ्जीरका रुखहरूमा अञ्जीर हुनेछ । किनकि पात सुकेर जानेछ, र मैले तिनीहरूलाई दिएका कुरा हराएर जानेछ ।
14 [Then the people will say], “(Why should we wait here [in these small towns]?/We should not wait here [in these small towns].) [RHQ]! We should go to the cities that have high walls around them, [but even if we do that] we will be killed there, because Yahweh our God has decided that we must be destroyed; [it is as though] [MET] he has given us a cup of poison to drink, because we sinned against him.
हामी किन यहाँ बसिरहेका छौं? सँगसँगै आओ । हामी किल्लाबन्दी गरिएका सहरहरूमा जाऔं, र त्यहाँ हामी मरेर चुप बनौं । किनकि परमप्रभु हाम्रा परमेश्वरले हामीलाई चुप पार्नुहुनेछ । उहाँले हामीलाई विष पिउन लगाउनुहुनेछ किनकि हामीले उहाँको विरुद्धमा पाप गरेका छौं ।
15 We hoped/desired that things would go well for us, but things have not gone well. We hoped that bad things would not happen to us any more, but only things that terrify us [are happening to us].
हामी शान्तिको अपेक्षा गर्दैछौं, तर त्यहाँ कुनै असल कुरो हुनेछैन । हामी चङ्गाइको समयको आशा गर्दैछौं, तर त्यहाँ त्रास हुनेछ ।
16 People [far north in Israel] in [the city of] Dan can already hear the snorting of the horses of their enemies [who are preparing to attack us]. [It is as though] the entire land [of Judah] is shaking as their army approaches; they are coming to destroy our land and everything in it, the people and the cities.”
दानबाट त्यसका घोडाहरूको घ्वार-घ्वार आवाज सुनिन्छ । त्यसका शक्तिशाली घोडाहरूको हिनहिनाइको आवाजमा पुरै पृथ्वी हल्लिन्छ । किनकि तिनीहरू आउनेछन् र यो देश र यसको सम्पत्ति, सहर र यसमा बस्नेहरूलाई स्वाहा पार्नेछन् ।
17 [Yahweh says], “I will send [those enemy soldiers to Judah], and they will be like [MET] poisonous snakes among you. No one will be able to stop them from attacking you [MET]; they will attack you like snakes do, [and kill you].”
किनकि हेर, म तिमीहरूका बिचमा सर्पहरू, तिमीहरूका टुनामुनाले वशमा पार्न नसक्ने विषालु सर्पहरू पठाउँदैछु । तिनीहरूले तिमीहरूलाई डस्नेछन्, यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो ।
18 I grieve very much [for the people of Judah], and my grieving does not end. I am very sad [IDM].
मेरो शोकको कुनै अन्त छैन, र मेरो हृदय व्याकुल भएको छ ।
19 Throughout our land, the people ask, “Has Yahweh abandoned Jerusalem? Is [he], our city’s king, no longer there?” [Yahweh replies], “Why do the people cause me to become very angry by [worshiping] idols and foreign gods?” [RHQ]
हेर्नुहोस्, टाढाको देशमा भएका मेरो मानिसहरूको छोरीको क्रन्दन सुन्नुहोस् । के परमप्रभु सियोनमा हुनुहुन्न र? के त्यसका राजा अहिले त्यहाँ हुनुहुन्न र? त्यसो भए, तिनीहरूले आफ्ना खोपिएका मूर्तिहरू र बेकम्मा विदेशी देवताहरूले मलाई किन रिस उठाउँछन् त?
20 [The people say], “The harvest [season] is finished, the (summer/hot season) has ended, [and we hoped that we would receive blessings from Yahweh], but he has not rescued us [from our enemies].”
कटनीको समय बितेको छ, ग्रीष्म ऋतु पनि सकिएको छ । तरै पनि हामी बचाइएका छैनौं ।
21 I cry because my people have been crushed. I mourn, and I am completely dismayed.
मेरा मानिसहरूको छोरीको चोटको कारणले मलाई मलाई चोट लागेको छ । त्यसलाई आइपरेका डरलाग्दा कुराहरूमा म शोक गर्छु । म लज्जित भएको छु ।
22 [I ask], “Surely there is [RHQ] medicinal balm in the Gilead [region]! Surely there are [RHQ] doctors there!” But my people have been badly wounded [in their spirits], and nothing can heal them.
के गिलादमा कुनै औषधी छैन? के त्यहाँ कुनै निको पार्न व्यक्ति छैन? मेरा मानिसहरूको छोरीको चोट किन निको भएको छैन त?
