< 1 तिमोथी 5 >
1 वृद्धमानिसलाई नहाप्काऊ । बरू आफ्नै बाबुलाई झैँ सम्झाऊ । जवानहरूलाई आफ्नै भाइझैँ सम्झाऊ ।
Do not rebuke an older man, but exhort him as a father; the younger men as brothers;
2 वृद्ध स्त्रीहरूलाई आमालाई झैँ र जवान स्त्रीहरूलाई सारा शुद्धतामा दिदीबहिनीलाई झैँ सम्झाऊ ।
the elder women as mothers; the younger as sisters, in all purity.
3 जो साँचो विधवाहरू हुन् तिनीहरूको आदर गर ।
Honor widows who are widows indeed.
4 तर यदि कुनै विधवाको छोराछोरी वा नातिनातिनीहरू छन् भने तिनीहरूको घरानामा नै पहिला आदर देखाउन सिकून । तिनीहरूले आफ्ना आमाबाबुहरूको ऋण चुकाऊन्, किनभने यो चाहिँ परमेश्वरलाई खुसी तुल्याउने कुरा हो ।
But if any widow has children or grandchildren, let them learn first to show piety toward their own family and to repay their parents, for this is acceptable in the sight of God.
5 तर वास्तविक विधवा एक्लै छोडिन्छन् । तिनको आत्मा भरोसा परमेश्वरमा नै हुन्छ । तिेनी रातदिन बिन्ती र प्रार्थनामा रहन्छिन् ।
Now she who is a widow indeed and desolate, has her hope set on God and continues in petitions and prayers night and day.
6 तैपनि मोजमस्तीको लागि जिउने स्त्री जीउदै मरेकी जस्तै हुन्छिन ।
But she who gives herself to pleasure is dead while she lives.
7 र यी कुराहरूको प्रचार गर ताकि तिनीहरू निन्दारहित होऊन् ।
Also command these things, that they may be without reproach.
8 तर यदि कसैले आफ्ना नातेदारहरू विशेषगरी आफ्नै घरानाहरूको लागि जुटाउदैन भने उसले विश्वासलाई इन्कार गरेको हुन्छ र एउटा विश्वास नगर्ने भन्दा पनि खराब हुन्छ ।
But if anyone does not provide for his own, and especially his own household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.
9 साठी वर्ष भन्दा कम उमेर नभएका एउटै पतिको पत्नी भएर बसेकी स्त्रीलाई मात्र विधवाको सूचीमा राख्नु ।
Let no one be enrolled as a widow under sixty years old, having been the wife of one man,
10 तिनी असल कामहरूले चिनिएको हुनुपर्छ चाहे तिनले छोराछोरीहरूको वास्ता गरेकी हुन् वा परदेशीहरूको सत्कार गरेकी हुन्, वा विश्वासीहरूका खुट्टा धोएकी हुन् वा जुनसुकै काममा समर्पित भएकी हुन् ।
being approved by good works, if she has brought up children, if she has been hospitable to strangers, if she has washed the saints’ feet, if she has relieved the afflicted, and if she has diligently followed every good work.
11 तर जवान बिधवाहरुलाई सूचीमा लेख्न इन्कार गर । किनभने जब तिनीहरूलाई ख्रीष्ट विरूद्ध शारीरिक अभिलाषाको अघि हार खान्छन्, तिनीहरूले विवाह गर्ने इच्छा गर्छन् ।
But refuse younger widows, for when they have grown wanton against Christ, they desire to marry,
12 यसरी तिनीहरूले पहिलेको प्रतिबद्धता तोडेर दोषको वशमा पर्छन् ।
having condemnation, because they have rejected their first pledge.
13 तिनीहरू अल्छी गर्ने पनि हुन्छन् । तिनीहरू अल्छी गर्ने मात्र होइन तर कुरौटे र अर्काको काममा हस्तक्षेप गर्ने पनि बन्छन् । तिनीहरूल भन्न नहुने कुरा भन्छन् ।
Besides, they also learn to be idle, going about from house to house. Not only idle, but also gossips and busybodies, saying things which they ought not.
14 यसकारण म चाहन्छु जवान स्त्रीहरूले हाम्रा विरोधीहरूलाई हामीले खराबी गरेकोमा दोष लगाउने मौका नदिनको लागि विवाह गरून्, बालबच्चा जन्माउन, घरवार चलाऊन् ।
I desire therefore that the younger widows marry, bear children, rule the household, and give no occasion to the adversary for insulting.
15 किनभने कोही त अघि नै शैतानको पछि लागिसकेका छन् ।
For already some have turned away after Satan.
16 यदि कोही विश्वासी स्त्रीसँग बिधवाहरू छन् भने तिनले तिनीहरूलाई सहायता गरून्, ताकि मण्डलीलाई बोझ नहोस्, ताकि यसले वास्तविक बिधुवाहरूको सहायता गर्न सकोस् ।
If any man or woman who believes has widows, let them relieve them, and do not let the assembly be burdened, that it might relieve those who are widows indeed.
17 असल तरिकाले प्रशासन चलाउने एल्डरहरू दोब्बर आदरकायोग्य ठानिऊन् ।
Let the elders who rule well be counted worthy of double honor, especially those who labor in the word and in teaching.
18 किनभने पवित्रशास्त्र भन्छ, “तिमीहरूले दाँइ गर्दै गरेको गोरुको मुखमा मोहोलो नलगाऔ” र “कामदार उसको ज्यालाको योग्य हुन्छ ।”
For the Scripture says, “You shall not muzzle the ox when it treads out the grain.” And, “The laborer is worthy of his wages.”
19 दुई वा तीन जना साक्षीहरू बिना एउटा एल्डरको विरूद्ध लगाइएको आरोप स्वीकार नगर ।
Do not receive an accusation against an elder except at the word of two or three witnesses.
20 पापीहरूलाई सबैको सामु सुधार गर ताकि बाकी रहेकाहरू पनि डराऊन् ।
Those who sin, reprove in the sight of all, that the rest also may be in fear.
21 परमेश्वरको, ख्रीष्ट येशूको र चुनिएको स्वर्गदूतहरूको सामु म तिमीलाई निष्ठापूर्वक आज्ञा दिन्छु कि यी नियमहरू बिना भेदभाव पालना गर र तिमीले कुनै पनि कुरामा पक्षपात नगर ।
I command you in the sight of God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, and the chosen angels, that you observe these things without prejudice, doing nothing by partiality.
22 कसैमाथि पनि हात राख्न हतार नगर । अरूको पापमा सहभागी नहोऊ । तिमीले आफैँलाई पवित्र राख्नु पर्छ ।
Lay hands hastily on no one. Do not be a participant in other people’s sins. Keep yourself pure.
23 तिमीले पानी मात्र नपिउनू बरू त्यसको सट्टा पेट र तिम्रो घरिघरि हुने बिमारको निम्ति थोरै दाखमद्य खाने गर ।
Be no longer a drinker of water only, but use a little wine for your stomach’s sake and your frequent infirmities.
24 केही मानिसहरूका पापहरू स्पष्ट देखिने हुन्छन् र ती पापहरू तिनीहरू अघि नै न्यायमा जान्छन् । तर केही पापहरू पछि मात्र जान्छन् ।
Some men’s sins are evident, preceding them to judgment, and some also follow later.
25 त्यसैगरी केही असल कामहरू स्पष्ट हुन्छन्, तर अरूहरू पनि लुकाउन सकिन्नन् ।
In the same way also there are good works that are obvious, and those that are otherwise cannot be hidden.
