Jeremiah 9
1 I wish that my head was [like] [MET] a spring of water, and that my eyes were [like] a fountain of tears. Then I would cry night and day for all of my people who have been killed [by our enemies].
मेरो शिरले पानी उत्पादन गर्न सके हुन्थ्यो र मेरा आँखा आँसुको फुहारा भए हुन्थ्यो! किनकि मेरा मानिसहरूका छोरीको बिचमा मारिएकाहरूका निम्ति म दिनरात रुने इच्छा गर्छु ।
2 I wish that I could leave my people and forget them, and go and live in a shack/shelter in the desert, because they have not remained faithful [MET] [to Yahweh]; they are a mob of people who deceive others.
उजाड-स्थानमा यात्रुहरू बस्नका निम्ति कसैले मलाई एउटा ठाउँ दिए हुन्थ्यो, म आफ्ना मानिसहरूलाई त्याग्न त्यहाँ जान सक्थे । तिनीहरूलाई मैले छोड्न सके हुन्थ्यो, किनकि सबै व्यभिचारी, विश्वासघातीको जमात हुन्!
3 [Yahweh replied to me], “They use their tongues [to tell] [MET] lies like people shoot [arrows] with bows. It is because they tell lies that they have become more powerful in this land, and they do not know me.
परमप्रभु घोषणा गर्नुहुन्छ, “आफ्ना झूटका धनुहरूलाई तिनीहरूले आफ्ना जिब्राले दबाउँछन्, तर तिनीहरूको विश्वसनीयताको कारणले तिनीहरू पृथ्वीमा बलिया भएर बढ्ने होइनन् । तिनीहरू एउटा दुष्ट कामदेखि अर्को दुष्ट काम गर्छन् । तिनीहरूले मलाई चिन्दैनन् ।”
4 Do not trust your neighbors and [even] your brothers! They all are as deceitful [as Jacob was]. They slander [each other] and tell lies [about each other].
तिमीकरू हरेक आ-आफ्नो छिमेकीदेखि होसियार बस, र आफ्नो कुनै भाइमाथि भरोसा नगर । किनकि हरेक भाइ निश्चय नै छली हो, र हरेक छिमेकी बदख्याइँ गर्दै हिंड्छ ।
5 They deceive their friends and never tell the truth. They lie continually and, because of that, they have become skilled liars; they do one oppressive thing after another, and are unable to stop doing it.
हरेक मानिसले आफ्नो छिमेकीको ठट्टा गर्छ, र साँचो बोल्दैन । तिनीहरूका जिब्राले छली कुराहरू सिकाउँछन् । तिनीहरू अपराध गर्दा-गर्दा थाकेका छन् ।
6 They habitually lie and deceive [each other], and no one will admit/say that I am God.
तेरो बासस्थान छलको बिचमा छ । आफ्नो छलमा तिनीहरूले मलाई इन्कार गर्छन्, यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो ।
7 Therefore [I], the Commander of the armies of angels, say this: Listen carefully to what I say: I will [cause my people to experience great afflictions, ] [like a metalworker puts metal in a hot fire] [MET] to completely burn out the impure bits. Because of all [the evil things] that my people have done, there is absolutely nothing else [RHQ] that I can do.
सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभु यसो भन्नुहुन्छ, “मैले तिनीहरूलाई खार्न र जाँच्न लागेको छु, किनकि मेरा मानिसहरूले जे गरेका छन्, त्यसको लागि म अरू के गर्न सक्छु र?
8 What they say [MTY] [injures people like] [MET] poisoned arrows do. They say to their neighbors, ‘I hope things will go well for you,’ while they are planning to kill them.
तिनीहरूका जिब्रा तिखा काँडहरू हुन् । तिनले विश्वास गर्न नसकिने कुराहरू बोल्छन् । आफ्ना मुखले आफ्ना छिमेकीहरूसित शान्तिको घोषणा तिनीहरूले गर्छन्, तर तिनीहरूका हृदयले चाहिं तिनीहरूलाई ढुकेर बस्छन् ।
9 Should I not punish them for doing that [RHQ]? Yes, I should certainly (get revenge on/give what they deserve to) [the people of] a nation that does things like that!”
के यी कुराको काणले मैले तिनीहरूलाई दण्ड नदिने? यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो, र के यस्तो जातिलाई म आफैले बदला नलिने त?
10 So, I will weep and wail for [the people who live in] the mountains and in the (pastures/places where the livestock eat the grass), because those areas will be desolate, and no one will live there. There will be no cattle there to call to each other, and all the birds and wild animals will have fled [to other places].
म शोकको गीत गाउनेछु, र पहाडहरूका निम्ति विलाप गर्नेछु, र खर्कहरूका निम्ति मृत्यु संस्कारको गीत गाइनेछ । किनकि ती जलाइएका छन्, यसैले कोही पनि त्यसबाट जान सक्दैन । तिनीहरूले कुनै पनि गाईवस्तुको आवाज सुन्नेछैनन् । आकाशका चराहरू र पशुहरू सबै भागेर गएका छन् ।
11 [Yahweh also says], “I will cause Jerusalem to become a heap of ruins, and [only] jackals/wolves will live there. I will destroy the towns of Judah, with the result that they will be completely deserted; no one will live there.”
त्यसैले म यरूशलेमलाई भत्केको थुप्रो, स्यालहरूको लुक्ने ठाउँ तुल्याउनेछु । म यहूदाका सहरहरूलाई मानिसहरू नबस्ने गरी उजाड तुल्याउनेछु ।”
12 [I said], “Only people who are very wise [RHQ] can understand these things. Only those who have been taught by Yahweh can [RHQ] explain these things to others. The wise people are [RHQ] the only ones who can explain why the land will be completely ruined with the result that everyone [RHQ] will be afraid to travel through it.”
यसलाई बुझ्न कुनचाहिं मानिस साँच्चै बुद्धिमानी छ? कसलाई परमप्रभुको मुखले बोल्नुभएको छ, र त्यसले यो घोषणा गर्नेछ? यो देश किन नष्ट पारिएको छ र उजाड-स्थानजस्तै विनाश गरिएको छ जसबाट कोही पनि जान सक्दैन?
13 Yahweh replied, “[These things will happen] because my people have rejected my laws which I gave to them; they have not obeyed me or my instructions.
परमप्रभु भन्नुहुन्छ, “मैले तिनीहरूका सामु राखेको मेरो व्यवस्थालाई तिनीहरूले त्यागेका हुनाले, तिनीहरूले मेरो आवाज सुनेर त्यसद्वारा नहिंडेका हुनाले यस्तो भएको हो ।
14 Instead, they have stubbornly done the things that they wanted to do. They have worshiped the idols that represent the god Baal, which is what their ancestors did.
तिनीहरू आ-आफ्ना हठी हृदयद्वारा हिंडेका हुनाले र आफ्ना पुर्खाहरूले सिकाएझैं गरी तिनीहरूले बाल देवताहरूको अनुसरण गरेको हुनाले यस्तो भएको हो ।
15 So now listen to what [I], the Commander of the armies of angels, the God of the Israelis, say: [What I will do will be like] [MET] giving these people bitter things to eat and poison to drink:
त्यसकारण सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्वर यसो भन्नुहुन्छ, “हर, मैले यो जातिलाई ऐरेलु खुवाउन र विषालु पानी पियाउन लागेको छु ।
16 I will scatter them to many nations which neither they nor their ancestors have known [anything about]; I will [enable their enemies to] strike them with swords until I have destroyed them.”
त्यसपछि म तिनीहरूलाई जाति-जातिहरूका बिचमा तितर-बितर पार्ने छु, जसलाई न तिनीहरूले न त तिनीहरूका पुर्खाहरूले चिनेका छन् । मैल तिनीहरूलाई पूर्ण रूपमा नष्ट नपारेसम्म म तिनीहरूको पछि तरवार पठाउनेछु ।”
17 This is also what the Commander of the armies of angels says: “Think [about what is happening], [then] summon those women who mourn [when someone has died].
सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभु यसो भन्नुहुन्छ, “यस विषयमा विचार गरः मृत्यु संस्कारका गीत गाउनेहरूलाई बोलाओ । तिनीहरू आऊन् । विलाप गर्न सिपालु स्त्रीहरूलाई बोलाउन पठाओ । तिनीहरू आऊन् ।
18 Tell them to come quickly and start to wail, with the result that tears will stream down from your(pl) eyes.
तिनीहरू हतार गरून्, र हाम्रा लागि शोकको गीत गाऊन्, ताकि हाम्रा आँखाबाट आँसु बगून् र हाम्रा परेलाबाट पानी बगून् ।
19 Listen to [the people of] Jerusalem crying/lamenting, saying, ‘We have been ruined/destroyed! We have experienced a terrible disaster! Now we are very ashamed, because our houses have been destroyed [by our enemies], and we [are being forced to] leave our land.’”
किनकि सियोनमा विलापको सोर सुनिएको छ, 'हामी कसरी तहस-नहत भएका छौं । हामी ज्यादै लज्जित भएका छौं । तिनीहरूले हाम्रा घरहरू भत्काएको समयदेखि नै हामीले यो देश त्यागेका छौं ।'
20 You women, listen to what Yahweh says [MTY]. Pay attention to his words [DOU]. Teach your daughters to wail. Teach each other how to sing funeral songs,
त्यसैले हे स्त्रीहरू हो, परमप्रभुको वचन सुन । उहाँको मुखबाट निस्कने सन्देशमा ध्यान देओ । तब आ-आफ्ना छोरीहरूलाई शोकको गीत र हरेक छिमेकी स्त्रीलाई मृत्यु संस्कारको गीत सिकाओ ।
21 because people will be dying [PRS] in your houses and in palaces. There will be no more children playing in the streets, there will be no more young men [gathering] in the city squares/marketplaces.
किनकि मृत्यु हाम्रा झ्यालबाट आएको छ । यो हाम्रा राजमहलहरूमा जान्छ । यसले बाहिरका बालबालिका र सहरका चोकहरूका युवाहरूलाई नष्ट पार्छ ।
22 There will be corpses scattered across the fields like dung; their dead bodies will lie there like [SIM] grain that has been cut by reapers/farmers, and there will be no one [still alive] to bury them.
यसो भन, “यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो, मानिसहरूका लाशहरू खेतबारीका मलझैं र बाली काट्नेहरूले छाडेका सिलाबालाझैं छोडिनेछन्, र ति जम्मा गर्ने कोही हुनेछैन ।”
23 Yahweh says this: “Wise men should not boast about their being wise, strong men should not boast about their being strong; and rich people should not boast about their being rich.
परमप्रभु यसो भन्नुहुन्छ, “बुद्धिमान् मानिसले आफ्नो बुद्धिमा वा योद्धाले आफ्नो शक्तिमा घमण्ड गर्न नदेओ । धनी मानिसले आफ्ना धनमा घमण्ड गर्न नदेओ ।
24 Instead, those who want to boast should boast about their knowing me and about understanding that I am Yahweh, that I am kind and just and righteous, that I faithfully love [people], and that I am delighted with [people who act] that way.
किनकि कुनै मानिसले कुनै कुरामा घमण्ड गर्छ भने, त्यसले यस कुरामा गरोस् कि उसित अन्तर्दृष्टि छ र मलाई चिन्छ । किनकि म परमप्रभु हुँ जसले पृथ्वीमा करारको बफादारी, न्याय र धार्मिकतामा काम गर्छु । किनकि यिनै कुरामा म प्रसन्न हुन्छु, यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो ।”
25 There will be a time when I will punish all those people of Egypt and of the Moab people-group and of the Edom [people-group] and of the Ammon [people-group], all those people who live close to desert areas (OR, who cut their hair short [to please their gods]) far from Judah, all those people who have [changed their bodies by] circumcising them [MET] but who have not [changed] their inner beings. I will punish the people of Judah also, because they have not changed their inner beings, [either].”
यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो, हेर, दिनहरू आउँदैछन्, जति बेला म शरीरमा मात्र खतना भएकाहरू सबैलाई दण्ड दिनेछु ।
म मिश्र, यहूदा, एदोम, अम्मोन, मोआब र शिरमा आफ्नो कपाल छोटो गरी काट्ने सबै मानिसलाई दण्ड दिनेछु । किनकि यी सबै जाति बेखतनाका हुन्, र इस्राएलका सबै घरानासित बेखतनको हृदय छ ।”
