१ थेसलोनिकी 4
1 अन्तमा भाइहरू हो, येशू ख्रीष्टमा हामी तिमीहरूलाई उत्साह र अर्ती दिन्छौँ, जसरी तिमीहरूले हामीबाट कसरी चल्नुपर्ने र परमेश्वरलाई रिजाउनुपर्ने हो भन्ने अर्ती पायौ र त्यसरी नै तिमीहरू चलेका छौ र त्यसभन्दा बढी पनि गरेका छौ ।
Finally, then, brethren, we beseech and exhort you, by our Lord Jesus, that as you learned from us how you ought to walk and please God, you would abound more and more.
2 किनकि तिमीहरूलाई थाहा छ, हामीले प्रभु येशू ख्रीष्टद्वारा तिमीहरूलाई के अर्ती दियौँ ।
For you know what commandments we gave you by our Lord Jesus.
3 यो परमेश्वरको इच्छा हो, तिमीहरू आफैलाई पवित्र पार, यौन क्रियाकलापको अनैतिकताबाट टाढै बस ।
For this is the will of God, your sanctification, that you keep yourselves from lewdness;
4 ताकि कसरी आदर र सम्मानसाथ आफ्नै पत्नीलाई लिनुपर्छ भनी तिमीहरू हरेकले जान्न सक ।
That each one of you know how to keep his vessel in sanctification and in honor,
5 (परमेश्वरलाई नचिन्ने अन्यजातिले जस्तै) कामवासनामा जलेर होइन ।
not in passionate desire, as the Gentiles do, who know not God;
6 यो कुरामा कुनै मानिसले पाप नगरोस् र आफ्नो भाइलाई गलत नसम्झोस् किनकि यी सबै कुराको बदला प्रभुले लिनुहुन्छ जसरी हामीले तिमीहरूलाई अगाडि नै चेतावनी र साक्षी दिइसकेका छौँ ।
That no one take advantage of or injure his brother in this matter; because the Lord takes vengeance for all such things, as we also told you before, and fully testified:
7 किनकि परमेश्वरले हामीलाई अशुद्धताको लागि बोलाउनुभएको होइन, तर पवित्रताको लागि हो ।
for God has not called us for uncleanness, but for holiness.
8 त्यसकारण, जसले यो इन्कार गर्दछ त्यसले मानिसलाई होइन तर परमेश्वरलाई इन्कार गर्दछ, जसले तिमीहरूलाई आफ्ना पवित्र आत्मा दिनुहुन्छ ।
Therefore, he that despises, despises not man, but God, who has given us his Holy Spirit.
9 भाइहरूप्रतिको प्रेमको विषयमा तिमीहरूलाई कसैले केही लेख्न जरुरी छैन । एक अर्कोलाई प्रेम गर्ने विषयमा तिमीहरू परमेश्वरबाट सिकाइएका छौ ।
But with respect to brotherly love, you have no need that I write to you: for you yourselves are taught of God to love one another;
10 वास्तवमा तिमीहरूले माकेडोनियामा भएका सबै दाजुभाइहरूलाई गरेका छौ, तर हामी तिमीहरूलाई अर्ती दिन्छौँ कि भाइहरू हो, अझै बढी गर ।
and indeed you do this to all the brethren that are in all Macedonia. But we exhort you, brethren, that you abound in love more and more,
11 हामीले तिमीहरूलाई आज्ञा गरेझैँ शान्त रहने, आफ्नै धन्दामा मन लगाउने र आफ्नै हातले परिश्रम गर्ने अर्ती दिन्छौँ ।
and that you earnestly endeavor to live quietly, and that you attend to your own business, and work with your own hands, as we commanded you;
12 यसो गर ताकि विश्वासभन्दा बाहिर भएकाहरूका खातिर तिमीहरू ठिक प्रकारले जिउन सक कि तिमीहरूलाई कुनै कुराको अभाव नहोस् ।
in order that you may walk with propriety toward those who are without, and may have need of nothing.
13 भाइहरू हो, सुतिगएकाहरूका विषयमा तिमीहरू अन्जान बस भन्ने हामी चाहन्नौँ ताकि आशा नहुने मानिसहरूले जस्तो तिमीहरूले शोक गर्न नपरोस् ।
But concerning those who have fallen asleep, I would not have you ignorant, brethren, that you may not grieve, as others who have no hope.
14 येशू मर्नुभयो र जीवित हुनुभयो भनी हामी विश्वास गर्छौं भने परमेश्वरले पनि जो-जति येशूमा सुतेका छन् तिनीहरूलाई उहाँमा जीवित पार्नुहुनेछ ।
For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, so also should we believe that God will, through Jesus, bring with him those who sleep.
15 परमेश्वरको वचनद्वारा हामी तिमीलाई यसो भन्छौँ कि हामी जो जीवित छौँ र प्रभुको आगमनसम्म बाँचिरहन्छौँ, हामीले कुनै हालतमा पनि मरिगएकाहरूलाई उछिन्नेछैनौँ ।
For this we say to you by the word of the Lord, that we, the living, who remain till the coming of the Lord, shall not precede those who are asleep
16 प्रभु आफै स्वर्गबाट ठुलो प्रशंसा, प्रधान स्वर्गदूतको आवाज र तुरहीको गर्जनसहित आउनुहुनेछ र ख्रीष्टमा मरेकाहरू पहिले बिउँतनेछन् ।
for the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God; and the dead in Christ shall arise first;
17 तब हामी जो जीवित छौँ उठाई लगिएकाहरूसँग एकसाथ बादलमा प्रभुलाई भेट्नेछौँ र हामी सदासर्वदा प्रभुसँगै हुनेछौँ ।
then we, the living who remain, shall, together with them, be caught up in clouds into the air to meet the Lord, and so shall we be ever with the Lord.
18 त्यसकारण, यी वचनले एक अर्कालाई सान्त्वना देऊ ।
So, then, comfort one another with these words.
