Jeremiah 6
1 Strengthen yourselves, sons of Benjamin, From the midst of Jerusalem, And in Tekoa blow ye a trumpet, And over Beth-Haccerem lift ye up a flame, For evil hath been seen from the north, And great destruction.
हे बेन्यामीनका मानिसहरू हो, यरूशलेमलाई छोडेर सुरक्षा खोज । तकोमा तुरही फुक । बेथहक्केरेममाथि सङ्केतबाट इशारा देओ, किनकि उत्तरबाट दुष्टता देखा पर्दैछ। एउटा ठुलो मिचाहा आउँदैछ ।
2 The comely and the delicate one I have cut off, The daughter of Zion.
सियोनकी सुन्दरी र कोमल छोरी नष्ट पारिन्छे ।
3 Unto her come do shepherds and their droves, They have stricken tents by her round about, They have fed each [in] his own station.
गोठालाहरू र तिनका बगालहरू तिनीहरूकहाँ जानेछन् । तिनीहरूले चारैतिर त्यसको विरुद्धमा पालहरू टाँग्नेछन् । हरेक मानिसले आफ्नो हातले चराउनेछ ।
4 Sanctify ye against her the battle, Rise, and we go up at noon. Woe to us, for turned hath the day, For stretched out are the shades of evening,
“युद्धको लागि आफैलाई देवताहरूकहाँ अर्पण गर । उठ, हामी मध्यदिनमा आक्रमण गरौं । दिन ढल्कँदै जानु र बेलुकीको छायाँ पर्दै जानु धेरै नराम्रो कुरा हो ।
5 'Rise, and we go up by night, And we destroy her palaces.'
तरै पनि हामी रातमा आक्रमण गरौं र त्यसको किल्लालाई नष्ट पारौं ।”
6 For thus said Jehovah of Hosts: Cut down her wood, And pour out against Jerusalem a mount, She [is] the city to be inspected, Wholly — she is oppression in her midst.
किनकि सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभु यसो भन्नुहुन्छ, “त्यसका रुखहरू काटिदे, र यरूशलेमको विरुद्धमा घेरामचानहरू बनाओ । आक्रमण गर्नलाई यो नै ठिक सहर हो, किनकि यो अत्याचारले भरिएको छ ।
7 As the digging of a well, is [for] its waters, So she hath digged [for] her wickedness, Violence and spoil is heard in her, Before My face continually [are] sickness and smiting.
जसरी इनारले ताजा पानी दिन्छ, त्यसरी नै यो सहरले निरन्तर दुष्टता उत्पादन गर्छ । त्यसको भित्र हिंसा र उपद्रव सुनिन्छ । रोग र घाउहरू मेरो अनुहारको सामु निरन्तर छन् ।
8 Be instructed, O Jerusalem, Lest My soul be alienated from thee, Lest I make thee a desolation, a land not inhabited.
ए यरूशलेम, अनुशासनलाई स्वीकार गर्, नत्रता म तँबाट तर्कनेछु, र तँलाई कोही नबस्ने उजाड देश बनाउनेछु ।”
9 Thus said Jehovah of Hosts: They surely glean, as a vine, the remnant of Israel, Put back thy hand, as a gatherer to the baskets.
सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभु यसो भन्नुहुन्छ, “निश्चय नै तिनीहरूले दाखबारीमा छाडिएका फललाई झैं इस्राएलमा छाडिएकाहरूलाई टिप्नेछन् । दाखका बोटहरूबाट दाख टिप्न फेरि तेरो हात पसार् ।
10 To whom do I speak, and testify, and they hear? Lo, their ear [is] uncircumcised, And they are not able to attend. Lo, a word of Jehovah hath been to them for a reproach, They delight not in it.
म कसलाई घोषणा गरूँ र चेताउनी दिऊँ ताकि तिनीहरूले मेरो कुरा सुनून्? हेर्, तिनीहरूका कान खतना गरिएका छैनन् । तिनीहरू ध्यान दिन सक्दैनन् । हेर्, तिनीहरूलाई सुधार्न परमप्रभुको वचन तिनीहरूकहाँ आएको छ, तर तिनीहरूले यसको इच्छा गर्दैनन् ।
11 And with the fury of Jehovah I have been filled, (I have been weary of containing, ) To pour [it] on the suckling in the street, And on the assembly of youths together, For even husband with wife are captured, An elder with one full of days,
तर म परमप्रभुको क्रोधले भरिएको छु । यसलाई थामेर म थाकिसकेको छु । उहाँले मलाई भन्नुभयो, “सडकका बालबालिका र युवाहरूको समूहमा यसलाई खन्याइदे । किनकि हरेक पुरुषलाई त्यसकी पत्नीसँगै, अनि कान नसुन्ने हरेक बुढा मानिसलाई लगिनेछ ।
12 And their houses have been turned to others, Fields and wives together, For I stretch out My hand against the inhabitants of the land, An affirmation of Jehovah.
तिनीहरूका घरहरू, खेतहरू र पत्नीहरू एकसाथ अरूलाई दिइनेछ । किनकि म आफ्नै हातले यस देशका बासिन्दाहरूलाई आक्रमण गर्नेछु, यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो ।
13 For from their least unto their greatest, Every one is gaining dishonest gain, And from prophet even unto priest, Every one is dealing falsely,
सानादेखि ठुलासम्म सबै जना बेइमान आर्जनको लागि लोभी भएका छन्, यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो । अगमवक्तादेखि पुजारीसम्म सबैले छलको अभ्यास गर्छन् ।
14 And they heal the breach of the daughter of my people slightly, Saying, 'Peace, peace!' and there is no peace.
शान्ति नै नहुँदा पनि, 'शान्ति, शान्ति' भन्दै, तिनीहरूले मेरा मानिसहरूको चोटलाई अलिअलि मात्र निको पारेका छन् ।
15 They were ashamed when they did abomination! Yea, they are not at all ashamed, Yea, blushing they have not known, Therefore they do fall among those falling, In the time I have inspected them, They stumble, said Jehovah.
तिनीहरूले घृणित कामहरू गर्दा के तिनीहरू लज्जित भए? तिनीहरू लज्जित भएनन् । तिनीहरूलाई शर्म मान्न पनि आउँदैन । त्यसैले पतन भएकाहरूका बिचमा तिनीहरू पतन हुनेछन् । तिनीहरूलाई दण्ड दिंदा तिनीहरू तल खसालिनेछन्, परमप्रभु भन्नुहुन्छ ।
16 Thus said Jehovah: Stand ye by the ways and see, and ask for paths of old, Where [is] this — the good way? and go ye in it, And find rest for yourselves. And they say, 'We do not go.'
परमप्रभु यसो भन्नुहुन्छ, “दोबाटोमा खडा हो र हेर् । प्राचीन मार्गहरू बारेमा सोधखोज गर् । 'यो असल मार्ग कहाँ छ?' तब त्यसैमा हिंड, र आफ्नो लागि विश्रामस्थल पत्ता लगा । तर मानिसहरू भन्छन्, 'हामी जाने छैनौं ।'
17 And I have raised up for you watchmen, Attend ye to the voice of the trumpet. And they say, 'We do not attend.'
तुरहीको आवाज सुन्न मैले तिमीहरूका निम्ति पहरेदारहरू नियुक्त गरें । तर तिनीहरूले भने, 'हामी सुन्ने छैनौं ।'
18 Therefore hear, O nations, and know, O company, That which [is] upon them.
त्यसकारण हे जाति-जातिहरू हो, सुन । हे गवाही दिनेहरू हो, तिनीहरूलाई के हुने छ सो हेर ।
19 Hear, O earth, lo, I am bringing evil on this people, The fruit of their devices, For to My words they gave no attention, And My law — they kick against it.
हे पृथ्वी, सुन् । मैले यी मानिसहरूमाथि विपत्ति ल्याउनै लागेको छु, जुन तिनीहरूका विचारको नतिजा हो । तिनीहरूले मेरो वचन वा व्यवस्थालाई ध्यानै दिएनन्, तर तिनीहरूले यसलाई इन्कार गरे ।
20 Why [is] this to Me? frankincense from Sheba cometh, And the sweet cane from a land afar off, Your burnt-offerings [are] not for acceptance, And your sacrifices have not been sweet to Me.
मेरो लागि शेबाबाट माथि गएको यस धुपको अर्थ के हो? वा टाढाको देशबाट आएका यी सुगन्धको? तिमीहरूका होमबलिहरू मेरो लागि स्वीकारयोग्य छैनन्, न त तिमीहरूका बलिदानहरू छन् ।
21 Therefore thus said Jehovah: Lo, I do give to this people stumbling blocks, And stumbled against them have fathers and sons together, The neighbour and his friend do perish.
त्यसैले परमप्रभु यसो भन्नुहुन्छ, “हेर्, मैले यी मानिसको विरुद्धमा ठेस लाग्ने अवरोध राख्न लागेको छु । तिनीहरूका बाबुहरू र छोराहरू एकैसाथ त्यसमाथि ठक्कर खानेछन् । बासिन्दाहरू र तिनीहरू छिमेकीहरू पनि नष्ट हुनेछन् ।”
22 Thus said Jehovah: Lo, a people hath come from a north country, And a great nation is stirred up from the sides of the earth.
परमप्रभु यसो भन्नुहुन्छ, ‘हेर्, उत्तर देशबाट एउटा जाति आउँदैछ, पृथ्वीको पल्लो भागबाट एउटा महान् जाति उत्तेजित हुँदैछ ।
23 Bow and javelin they take hold of, Fierce it [is], and they have no mercy, Their voice as a sea doth sound, And on horses they ride, set in array as a man of war, Against thee, O daughter of Zion.
तिनीहरूले धनु र भालाहरू उठाउने छन् । तिनीहरू क्रुर छन् र दया नै छैन । तिनीहरूको आवाज समुद्रको गर्जनजस्तो छ, र तिनीहरू घोडाहरूमा सवार हुँदैछन् । हे सियोनकी छोरी, तेरो विरुद्धमा युद्ध गर्न तिनीहरू पङ्क्तिबद्ध भएर आउने मानिसहरूजस्तै अगाडि बढ्छन् ।”
24 'We have heard its sound, feeble have been our hands, Distress hath seized us, pain as of a travailing woman.
हामीले तिनीहरूका बारेमा खबरहरू सुनेका छौं, र निराश हुँदा हाम्रा हातहरू नै लत्रेका छन् । जन्म दिंदा स्त्रीलाई भएझैं सङ्कष्टले हामीलाई समात्छ ।
25 Go not forth to the field, And in the way walk not, For a sword hath the enemy, fear [is] round about.
बाहिर खेतबाट नजाओ, र सडकहरूमा नहिंड, किनकि शत्रुका तरवार र त्रास चारैतिर छन् ।
26 O daughter of My people, Gird on sackcloth, and roll thyself in ashes, The mourning of an only one make for thee, A lamentation most bitter, For suddenly come doth the spoiler against us.
हे मेरा मानिसकी छोरी, भाङ्ग्रा लगा र खरानीमा लडीबडी हो । एक मात्र छोरोको लागि विलाप गरेझैं शुँक-शुँक गरेर शोक गर, किनकि विनाशक हामीमाथि अकस्मात् आउनेछ ।
27 A watch-tower I have given thee, Among My people a fortress, And thou knowest, and hast tried their way.
“हे यर्मिया, तिनीहरूका मार्ग निरीक्षण गर्न र जाँच गर्न मैले तँलाई धातु जाँच गर्नेजस्तै मेरा मानिसहरूको जाँच गर्ने मानिस बनाएको छु ।
28 All of them are turned aside by apostates, Walking slanderously — brass and iron, All of them are corrupters.
तिनीहरू अति नै हठी मानिसहरू हुन् जो अरूहरूको बदख्याइँ गर्दै यताउता जान्छन् । तिनीहरू सबै भ्रष्टतापूर्वक काम गर्ने काँसा र फलाम हुन् ।
29 The bellows have been burnt, By fire hath the lead been consumed, In vain hath a refiner refined, And the wicked have not been drawn away.
आगोले भस्म गर्ने पदार्थलाई भस्म गर्न खलाँतीलाई जोडसित फुकिन्छ । आगोको रापमा फलाम पग्लन्छ । तिनीहरूका बिचमा शुद्देइँ जारी छ, तर यो अर्थहीन छ, किनकि दुष्ट्याइँलाई हटाइएको छैन ।
30 'Silver rejected,' they have called to them, For Jehovah hath kicked against them!
तिनीहरू तिरस्कृत भएको चाँदी भनिनेछन् किनकि परमप्रभुले तिनीहरूलाई इन्कार गर्नुभएको छ ।”
