Jeremiah 22
1 This is what Yahweh says, “Go down to the house of the king of Judah and proclaim this word there.
परमप्रभु यसो भन्नुहुन्छ, “यहूदाको राजाको घरमा तल जा र त्यहाँ यो वचन घोषणा गर्,
2 Say, 'King of Judah, listen to the word of Yahweh—you who sit on David's throne—you, and your servants, and your people who come through these gates.
यसो भन, 'ए यहूदाका राजा, तँ जो दाऊदको सिंहासनमा बस्छस्, तँ र तेरा सेवकहरू र यी ढोकाहरूद्वारा आउने तेरा मानिसहरू हो, परमप्रभुको वचन सुन ।
3 Yahweh says this, “Perform justice and righteousness, and anyone who has been robbed—rescue him from the hand of the oppressor. Do not mistreat any foreigner in your land, or any orphan or widow. Do not commit violence or pour out innocent blood in this place.
परमप्रभु यसो भन्नुहुन्छः न्याय र धार्मिकता कायम राख, अनि लुटिएको कुनै व्यक्तिलाई थिचोमिचो गर्नेको हातबाट छुटकारा देओ । तिमीहरूको देशमा भएका कुनै पनि विदेशी वा अनाथ वा विधवालाई दुर्व्यवहार नगर । यस ठाउँमा हिंसा नगर वा निर्दोष रगत नबगाओ ।
4 For if you truly do these things, then kings sitting on David's throne will enter the gates of this house riding in a chariot and on horses, he, his servants, and his people!
तिमीहरूले साँच्चै यी कुरा गर्यौ भने, दाऊदको सिंहासनमा बस्ने राजाहरू, रथ र घोडाहरूमा सवार ऊ, उसका सेवकहरू र उसका मानिसहरू यी ढोकाहरूभित्र यो मन्दिरमा पस्नेछन् ।
5 But if you do not listen to these words from me that I have announced—this is Yahweh's declaration—then this royal house will become a ruin.”'
तर मैले घोषणा गरेका यी वचन तिमीहरूले सुन्दैनौ भने—यो राजदरबार भग्नावशेष हुनेछ, यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो' ।”
6 For Yahweh says this concerning the house of the king of Judah, 'You are like Gilead, or like the summit of Lebanon to me. Yet I will turn you into a wilderness, into cities with no inhabitants.
किनकि यहूदाका राजाको घरानाको बारेमा परमप्रभु यसो भन्नुहुन्छ, 'तँ मेरो लागि गिलाद वा लेबनानको टाकुराजस्तै छस् । तापनि म तँलाई उजाड-स्थान, मानिसहरू नबस्ने सहरहरूजस्तै तुल्याउनेछु ।
7 For I have designated destroyers to come against you! Men with their weapons will cut off the best of your cedars and let them fall into the fire.
किनकि तेरो विरुद्धमा आउनलाई मैले विनाशकहरू तोकेको छु । मानिसहरूले आ-आफ्ना हतियारहरूले सबैभन्दा राम्रा-राम्रा देवदारुहरू काट्नेछन् र तिनलाई आगोमा जलाउने छन् ।
8 Then many nations will pass by this city. Each person will say to the next, “Why has Yahweh acted in this way toward this great city?”
तब धेरै जातिहरू त्यस सहर भएर जानेछन् । एउटाले अर्कोलाई सोध्ने छ, 'यस महान् सहरप्रति परमप्रभुले किन यसरी व्यवहार गर्नुभएको होला?'
9 Then the other will answer, “Because they abandoned the covenant of Yahweh their God and bowed down to other gods and worshiped them.”
तब अर्कोले जवाफ दिनेछ, 'किनकि तिनीहरूले परमप्रभु आफ्ना परमेश्वरको करारलाई त्यागे र अरू देवताहरूको सामु निहुरे र तिनीहरूको पुजा गरे ।”
10 Do not weep for the one who is dead or mourn for him; but weep bitterly for him who is about to go away, because he will never return and see his native land again.'
मृत्यु भएको व्यक्तिको निम्ति नरोओ वा त्यसको निम्तो शोक गर, तर टाढा लगिन लागेको व्यक्तिप्रति धुरुधुरु रोओ, किनकि त्यो फेरि कहिल्यै फर्किने अनि आफ्नो जन्मभूमि देख्नेछैन ।'
11 For Yahweh says this about Jehoahaz son of Josiah king of Judah, who served as king instead of Josiah his father, 'He has gone from this place and will not come back.
किनकि यहूदाका राजा योशियाहका छोरा यहोआहाज जसले आफ्ना पिता योशियाहको सट्टामा राजा भई सेवा गरे, तिनको बारेमा परमप्रभु भन्नुहुन्छ, 'ऊ यस ठाउँबाट गएको छ, र फर्केर आउनेछैन ।
12 He will die there in the place to where they have exiled him, and he will never again see this land.'
जहाँ तिनीहरूले उसलाई कैद गरेर लगेका छन्, ऊ त्यहीं मर्नेछ, र उसले फेरि कहिल्यै यो देश देख्नेछैन ।'
13 Woe to him who builds his house by unrighteousness, his upper rooms by injustice, who makes his neighbor work for him for nothing, and he does not give him his wages;
जसले आफ्नो घर अधार्मिकता, आफ्ना माथिल्ला कोठाहरू अन्यायले बनाउँछ, जसले आफ्नो छिमेकीलाई सित्तैमा काम लगाउँछ, अनि जसले उसलाई ज्याला दिंदैन, त्यसलाई धिक्कार छ ।
14 he says, 'I will build for myself a large house with spacious upper rooms.' So he cuts out large windows for it, and he panels it with cedar, and he paints it red.
उसले भन्छ, 'आफ्नो निम्ति माथिल्ला कोठाहरू फराकिलो भएको एउटा ठुलो महल म बनाउनेछु ।' त्यसले उसले त्यसको निम्ति ठुला-ठुला झ्यालहरू बनाउँछ र त्यसमा देवदारुका पल्लाहरू हाल्छ अनि उसले त्यसमा रातो रङ लगाऊँछ ।
15 Is this what makes you a good king, that you wanted to have boards of cedar? Did not your father also eat and drink, yet do justice and righteousness? Then things went well for him.
के यही कुराले तँलाई असल राजा बनाउँछन्, कि तैंले देवदारुका फल्याकहरू पाउने इच्छा गरिस्? तेरा बाबुले पनि खाए र पिए, तापनि न्याय र धार्मिकता कायम राखे, होइन र? त्यसको लागि असल कुराहरू नै भए ।
16 He judged in favor of the poor and needy. It was good then. Is this not what it means to know me?—this is Yahweh's declaration.
उसले गरिबहरू र खाँचोमा परेकाहरूको पक्षमा न्याय गर्यो । त्यस बेला राम्रै भएको थियो । के मलाई चिन्नुको अर्थ यही होइन र? यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो ।
17 But there is nothing in your eyes and heart except worry for your unjust profit and for pouring out innocent blood, for producing oppression and crushing of others.
तर तेरो दृष्टि र हृदयमा बेइमान नाफा कमाउनु, निर्दोषहरूको रगत बगाउनु, अरूहरूलाई थिचोमिचो र अत्याचार गरेर कमाउनुबाहेक अरू केही छैन ।
18 Therefore this is what Yahweh says about Jehoiakim son of Josiah, king of Judah: They will not lament for him, saying, 'Woe, my brother!' or 'Woe, my sister!' They will not lament for him, saying, 'Woe, master!' or 'Woe, majesty!'
त्यसकारण यहूदाका राजा योशियाहका छोरा यहोयाकीमको विषयमा परमप्रभु यसो भन्नुहुन्छः 'हाय, मेरा दाजु! हाय मेरी बहिनी!' भन्दै तिनीहरूले त्यसको लागि विलाप गर्नेछैनन् । 'हाय, मेरा मालिक! हाय, उहाँको गौरव!' भन्दै तिनीहरूले त्यसको लागि विलाप गर्नेछैनन् ।
19 He will be buried with a donkey's burial, dragged away and thrown out beyond the gates of Jerusalem.
त्यसलाई एउटा गधालाई गाडेझैं घिसारेर टाढा लगिन्छ र यरूशलेमका ढोकाहरूको बाहिर फ्याँकिनेछ ।
20 Go up Lebanon's mountains and shout. Lift your voice in Bashan. Shout from the Abarim mountains, for all of your friends will be destroyed.
लेबनानका पहाडहरूमा उक्लेर जा र चर्को गरी करा । बाशानमा तेरो सोर निकाल् । अबारीम पहाडहरूबट चर्को गरी करा, किनकि तेरा सबै मित्रहरू नष्ट गरिनेछन् ।
21 I spoke to you when you were safe, but you said, 'I will not listen.' This was your custom since your youth, for you have not listened to my voice.
तँ सुरक्षित हुँदा मैले तँसित बोलेँ, तर तैंले भनिस्, 'म सुन्ने छैनँ ।' तेरो युवावस्थादेखि यो तेरो चलन थियो, किनकि तैंले मेरो सोर सुनेको छैनस् ।
22 The wind will shepherd away all your shepherds, and your friends will go into captivity. Then you will certainly be ashamed and humiliated by all of your evil deeds.
बतासले तेरा सबै गोठालालाई उडाएर लैजानेछ, र तेरा मित्रहरू निर्वासनमा लगिनेछन् । तब तेरा सबै दुष्ट कामद्वारा तँ निश्चय नै लज्जित हुनेछस्, र अपमानित हुनेछस् ।
23 You who live in 'Lebanon,' who is nestled in cedar buildings, how you will be pitied when the labor pains come upon you, pain like that of a woman in labor!”
तँ जो 'लेबनान' मा बस्छस्, जुन देवदारुले बनेका घरहरू हुन्, प्रसव-वेदनमा भएकी स्त्रीलाई जस्तै तँमाथि पीडा आउँदा तँ कसरी तँमाथि दया गरिनेछ र ।”
24 “As I live—this is Yahweh's declaration—even if you, Jehoiachin son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, were the signet on my right hand, I would tear you off.
“यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो, जस्तो म जीवित छु, ए यहूदाका राजा यहोयाकीमको छोरो यहोयाकीन, तँ मेरो हातको छाप-औंठी होस्, म तँलाई धुजाधुजा पार्नेछु ।
25 For I have given you to the hand of the ones seeking your life and to the hand of those before whom you are afraid, even to the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon and the Chaldeans.
किनकि मैले तँलाई तेरो ज्यान लिन खोज्नेहरूको हातमा र जससँग तँ डराउँछस् तिनीहरूकै हातमा, बेबिलोनका राजा नबूकदनेसर र कल्दीहरूको हातमा सुम्पिदिएको छु ।
26 I will throw you and your mother who bore you into another land, a country where you were not born, and there you will die.
तँलाई र तँलाई जन्म दिने तेरी आमालाई म आर्को देशमा फल्नेछु, जुन देशमा तँ जन्मेको थिइनस् र त्यहाँ तिमीहरू मर्नेछौ ।
27 About this land to which they will want to return, they will not come back here.
यस देशको बारेमा जहाँ तिनीहरू फर्केर आउन इच्छा गर्नेछन्, तिनीहरू यहाँ फर्केर आउनेछैनन् ।
28 Is this a despised and shattered vessel? Is this man Jehoiachin a pot that pleases no one? Why have they thrown him and his descendants out, and have poured them out into a land that they did not know?
के यो तिरस्कृत र टुक्रटुक्रा भएको भाँडो हो? के यो मानिस यहोयाकीन एउटा त्यस्तो भाँडो हो जसले कसैलाई खुसी पार्दैन? ऊ र उसका सन्तानहरूलाई किन तिनीहरूले बाहिर फालेका छन् र तिनीहरूले नचिनेका देशमा तिनीहरूलाई पठाएका छन्?
29 Land, Land, Land! Hear the word of Yahweh!
ए देश, ए देश, ए देश! परमप्रभुको वचन सुन् ।
30 Yahweh says this, 'Write about this man Jehoiachin: He will be childless. He will not prosper during his days, and no one among his descendants will achieve success or ever again sit on David's throne and rule over Judah.'”
परमप्रभु यसो भन्नुहुन्छ, 'यो मानिस यहोयाकीनको बारेमा लेखः ऊ सन्तानहीन हुनेछ । उसको आफ्नो जीवनकालमा उसले उन्नति गर्नेछैन, र उसका सन्तानहरूमध्ये कसैले पनि सफलता हासिले गर्नेछैनन्, वा फेरि कहिल्यै दाऊदको सिंहासनमा बस्नेछन् र यहूदामाथि राज्य गर्नेछन् ।”
