व्यवस्था 29

1 होरेबमा परमप्रभुले इस्राएलीहरूसित बाँध्‍नुभएको करारबाहेक मोआब देशमा परमप्रभुले मोशामार्फत इस्राएलीहरूलाई दिनुभएका वचनहरू यी नै हुन् ।

These are the words of the covenant which the LORD commanded Moses to make with the children of Israel in the land of Moab, in addition to the covenant which he made with them in Horeb.

2 मोशाले सारा इस्राएलीलाई डाकेर भने, “मिश्र देशमा फारो, तिनका सबै अधिकारी र तिनका सबै देशमा परमप्रभुले तिमीहरूका सामु गर्नुभएको हरेक कुरा तिमीहरूले देखेका छौ ।

Moses called to all Israel, and said to them: Your eyes have seen all that the LORD did in the land of Egypt to Pharaoh, and to all his servants, and to all his land;

3 तिमीहरूका आँखाले डरलाग्दो दुःखकष्‍ट, चिन्ह र आश्‍चर्यहरू देख्यौ ।

the great trials which your eyes saw, the signs, and those great wonders.

4 तर आजको दिनसम्म परमप्रभुले तिमीहरूलाई जान्‍ने ह्रदय, देख्‍ने आँखा वा सुन्‍ने कान दिनुभएको छैन ।

But the LORD has not given you a heart to know, eyes to see, and ears to hear, to this day.

5 मैले तिमीहरूलाई चालिस वर्षसम्म उजाड-स्थानमा अगुवाइ गरेको छु । तिमीहरूका लुगा फाटिएन, न त तिमीहरूका जुत्ता च्यातिए ।

I have led you forty years in the wilderness. Your clothes have not grown old on you, and your sandals have not grown old on your feet.

6 तिमीहरूले अरू कुनै रोटी खाएनौ, न त तिमीहरूले कुनै अरू मद्य पियौ ताकि म नै परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्‍वर हुँ भनी तिमीहरूले जान्‍न सक ।

You have not eaten bread, neither have you drunk wine or strong drink, that you may know that I am the LORD your God.

7 तिमीहरू यस ठाउँमा आउँदा हेश्बोनका राजा सीहोन र बाशानका राजा ओग तिमीहरूको विरुद्धमा युद्ध गर्न आए र हामीले तिनीहरूलाई परास्त गर्‍यौँ ।

When you came to this place, Sihon the king of Heshbon and Og the king of Bashan came out against us to battle, and we struck them.

8 हामीले तिनीहरूको देश कब्जा गरी रूबेनीहरू, गादीहरू र मनेश्शेको आधा कुललाई पैतृक सम्पत्तिको रूपमा दियौँ ।

We took their land, and gave it for an inheritance to the Reubenites, and to the Gadites, and to the half-tribe of the Manassites.

9 त्यसकारण, तिमीहरूले गर्ने हरेक कुरामा तिमीहरूको उन्‍नति होस् भनेर यस करारका वचनहरू पालग गर र मान ।

Therefore keep the words of this covenant and do them, that you may prosper in all that you do.

10 आज तिमीहरूका नायक, कुल, धर्म-गुरु, अधिकृत र इस्राएलका सबै मानिस परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्‍वरको सामु खडा छौ ।

All of you stand today in the presence of the LORD your God: your heads, your tribes, your elders, and your officers, even all the men of Israel,

11 तिमीहरूका छोराछोरीहरू, पत्‍नीहरू, तिमीहरूको छाउनीमा भएका परदेशी, दाउरे र पनेरे सबै उहाँको सामु खडा छौ ।

your little ones, your wives, and the foreigners who are in the middle of your camps, from the one who cuts your wood to the one who draws your water,

12 आज तिमीहरू परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्‍वरको करारभित्र प्रवेश गर्न र परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्‍वरले तिमीहरूसित खान लाग्‍नुभएको शपथभित्र प्रवेश गर्दै छौ

that you may enter into the covenant of the LORD your God, and into his oath, which the LORD your God makes with you today,

13 ताकि आज उहाँले तिमीहरूलाई आफ्नै जाति बनाउनुभएको होस् र उहाँले भन्‍नुभएझैँ उहाँले तिमीहरूका पिता-पुर्खाहरू अब्राहाम, इसहाक र याकूबसित प्रतिज्ञा गर्नुभएअनुसार उहाँ तिमीहरूका परमेश्‍वर होऊन् ।

that he may establish you today as his people, and that he may be your God, as he spoke to you and as he swore to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.

14 किनकि मैले यो करार र यो शपथ आज परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्‍वरको सामु

Neither do I make this covenant and this oath with you only,

15 यहाँ उभिनेहरूसित मात्र नभएर आज हामीसित यहाँ नहुनेहरूसित पनि बाँध्दै छु ।

but with those who stand here with us today before the LORD our God, and also with those who are not here with us today

16 हामी मिश्रमा कसरी बस्यौँ र जाति-जातिहरूका बिचबाट हामी कसरी आयौँ भनी तिमीहरू जान्दछौ ।

(for you know how we lived in the land of Egypt, and how we came through the middle of the nations through which you passed;

17 तिनीहरूका बिचमा भएका काठ र ढुङ्गा, चाँदी र सुनले बनेका घिनलाग्दा मूर्तिहरूलाई तिमीहरूले देखेका छौ ।

and you have seen their abominations and their idols of wood, stone, silver, and gold, which were amongst them);

18 तिमीहरूका बिचमा भएका कुनै पुरुष, स्‍त्री, घराना, कुलको ह्रदय परमप्रभु हाम्रा परमेश्‍वरबाट तर्केर गई ती जातिहरूका देवताहरूको पुजा गर्न पछि नलागोस् भन्‍ने कुरामा निश्‍चित होओ । तिमीहरूका बिचमा यस्तो तितो विष उत्पन्‍न गर्ने कोही नहोस् ।

lest there should be amongst you man, woman, family, or tribe whose heart turns away today from the LORD our God, to go to serve the gods of those nations; lest there should be amongst you a root that produces bitter poison;

19 त्यस्तो व्यक्तिले यो श्रापका वचनहरू सुन्दा त्यसले आफैलाई आशिष् दिई आफ्नो ह्रदयमा यसो भन्छ, 'म मेरो ह्रदयको हठीपनामा हिँडे तापनि मसित शान्ति हुने छ ।' यसले सुक्खा जमिनसँगै भिजेको जमिनलाई पनि नष्‍ट गर्ने छ ।

and it happen, when he hears the words of this curse, that he bless himself in his heart, saying, “I shall have peace, though I walk in the stubbornness of my heart,” to destroy the moist with the dry.

20 परमप्रभुले त्यसलाई क्षमा दिनुहुने छैन, बरु परमप्रभुको क्रोध र उहाँको डाह त्यो मानिसको विरुद्धमा दन्कने छ अनि यस पुस्तकमा लेखिएका सबै श्राप त्यसमाथि आउने छन् । यसरी परमप्रभुले आकाशमुनिबाट त्यसको नाउँ मेटिदिनुहुने छ ।

The LORD will not pardon him, but then the LORD’s anger and his jealousy will smoke against that man, and all the curse that is written in this book will fall on him, and the LORD will blot out his name from under the sky.

21 व्यवस्थाको यस पुस्तकमा लेखिएका करारका सबै श्रापअनुसार परमप्रभुले त्यसलाई इस्राएलका सबै कुलबाट विनाशको निम्ति अलग गर्नुहुने छ ।

The LORD will set him apart for evil out of all the tribes of Israel, according to all the curses of the covenant written in this book of the law.

22 तिमीहरूपछि आउने पुस्ता अर्थात् तिमीहरूका सन्तान र सुदूर देशबाट आउने परदेशीले यस देशमा आइपरेका विपत्तिहरू र परमप्रभुले ल्याउनुभएका विपत्तिहरू देख्दा तिनीहरूले यस बारेमा भन्‍ने छन् ।

The generation to come—your children who will rise up after you, and the foreigner who will come from a far land—will say, when they see the plagues of that land, and the sicknesses with which the LORD has made it sick,

23 परमप्रभुले आफ्नो रिस र क्रोधमा सदोम र गमोरा, अदमा र सबोयीमलाई नष्‍ट पार्नुभएझैँ समस्त देशमा गन्धक र नून जलेको खाक मात्र हुने छ ।

that all of its land is sulphur, salt, and burning, that it is not sown, doesn’t produce, nor does any grass grow in it, like the overthrow of Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah, and Zeboiim, which the LORD overthrew in his anger, and in his wrath.

24 अन्य जातिहरूसँगै तिनीहरूले भन्‍ने छन्, 'किन परमप्रभुले यस देशलाई यसो गर्नुभएको? यो डरलाग्दो रिसको मतलब के हो?'

Even all the nations will say, “Why has the LORD done this to this land? What does the heat of this great anger mean?”

25 मानिसहरूले भन्‍ने छन्, 'तिनीहरूले मिश्रबाट ल्याउनुहुने परमप्रभु तिनीहरूका पिता-पुर्खाहरूका परमेश्‍वरले तिनीहरूसित बाँध्‍नुभएको करार त्यागेकाले गर्दा यसो भएको हो ।

Then men will say, “Because they abandoned the covenant of the LORD, the God of their fathers, which he made with them when he brought them out of the land of Egypt,

26 तिनीहरू आफूले नचिनेका र उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई नदिनुभएको अन्य देवताहरूको पछि लागी तिनीहरूको सेवा गरेकाले र तिनीहरूका सामु निहुरेकाले गर्दा यसो भएको हो ।

and went and served other gods and worshipped them, gods that they didn’t know and that he had not given to them.

27 त्यसकारण, यस पुस्तकमा लेखिएका सबै श्राप आउने गरी परमप्रभुको रिस यस देशको विरुद्धमा दन्किएको हो ।

Therefore the LORD’s anger burnt against this land, to bring on it all the curses that are written in this book.

28 परमप्रभुले आफ्नो रिस, क्रोध र भयानक कोपमा तिनीहरूलाई तिनीहरूको देशबाट जरैदेखि उखेली अर्को देशमा फ्याँक्‍नुभएको छ, जस्तो आज छ ।'

The LORD rooted them out of their land in anger, in wrath, and in great indignation, and thrust them into another land, as it is today.”

29 गुप्‍त कुराहरू परमप्रभु हाम्रा परमेश्‍वरका मात्र हुन् । तर प्रकट भएका कुराहरू सदाको निम्ति हाम्रा र हाम्रा सन्तानहरूका हुन् ताकि हामीले यस व्यवस्थाका सबै वचन पालन गर्न सकूँ ।

The secret things belong to the LORD our God; but the things that are revealed belong to us and to our children forever, that we may do all the words of this law.
