व्यवस्था 31

1 मोशा गएर सारा इस्राएलीलाई यी वचन भने,

Moses went and spoke these words to all Israel.

2 “म अहिले एक सय बिस वर्ष पुगेँ । अब म भित्र बाहिर गर्न सक्दिनँ । परमप्रभुले मलाई यसो भन्‍नुभएको छ, 'तँ यर्दनपारि जाने छैनस् ।'

He said to them, “I am one hundred and twenty years old today. I can no more go out and come in. The LORD has said to me, ‘You shall not go over this Jordan.’

3 परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्‍वर तिमीहरूभन्दा अगिअगि त्यहाँ जानुहुने छ । उहाँले तिमीहरूकै सामु यी जातिहरूलाई नष्‍ट पार्नुहुने छ, र तिमीहरूले तिनीहरूलाई धपाउने छौ । परमप्रभुले भन्‍नुभएझैँ यहोशू तिमीहरूभन्दा अगि त्यहाँ जाने छन् ।

The LORD your God himself will go over before you. He will destroy these nations from before you, and you shall dispossess them. Joshua will go over before you, as the LORD has spoken.

4 परमप्रभुले एमोरीहरूका राजा सीहोन र ओग अनि तिनहरूका देशलाई नष्‍ट पार्नुभएझैँ तिनीहरूलाई नष्‍ट पार्नुहुने छ ।

The LORD will do to them as he did to Sihon and to Og, the kings of the Amorites, and to their land, when he destroyed them.

5 तिमीहरूले तिनीहरूसित युद्धमा जम्काभेट गर्दा परमप्रभुले तिमीहरूलाई तिनीहरूमाथि विजय दिनहुने छ, र मैले तिमीहरूलाई दिएका सबै आज्ञामुताबिक तिनीहरूलाई गर्नू ।

The LORD will deliver them up before you, and you shall do to them according to all the commandment which I have commanded you.

6 बलियो र खुबै साहसी होओ । नडराओ र तिनीहरूदेखि भयभीत नहोओ । किनकि परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्‍वर तिमीहरूसँगै जानुहुने छ । उहाँले तिमीहरूलाई छाड्नुहुने छैन, न त त्याग्‍नुहुने छ ।”

Be strong and courageous. Don’t be afraid or scared of them, for the LORD your God himself is who goes with you. He will not fail you nor forsake you.”

7 मोशाले यहोशूलाई बोलाई सारा इस्राएलको सामुन्‍ने भने, “बलियो र खुबै साहसी होऊ, किनकि यी मानिसहरूलाई दिन्छु भनी परमप्रभुले तिनीहरूका पिता-पुर्खाहरूसित प्रतिज्ञा गर्नुभएको देशमा तिमी यिनीहरूसँगै जाऊ । तिमीहरूले तिनीहरूलाई यसको अधिकार गर्न दिने छौ ।

Moses called to Joshua, and said to him in the sight of all Israel, “Be strong and courageous, for you shall go with this people into the land which the LORD has sworn to their fathers to give them; and you shall cause them to inherit it.

8 परमप्रभु तिम्रो अगिअगि जानुहुने छ । उहाँ तिमीसँगै हुनुहुने छ । उहाँले तिमीलाई छाड्नहुने छैन, न त त्याग्‍नुहुने छ । नडराऊ, निरुत्साहित नहोऊ ।”

The LORD himself is who goes before you. He will be with you. He will not fail you nor forsake you. Don’t be afraid. Don’t be discouraged.”

9 मोशाले यो व्यवस्था लेखेर लेवीका छोराहरू अर्थात् पुजारीहरूलाई दिए जसले परमप्रभुले करारको सन्दुक बोक्थे । तिनले इस्राएलका सारा धर्म-गुरुलाई पनि यसका प्रतिहरू दिए ।

Moses wrote this law and delivered it to the priests the sons of Levi, who bore the ark of the LORD’s covenant, and to all the elders of Israel.

10 मोशाले तिनीहरूलाई यसो भनी आज्ञा दिए, “हरेक सात वर्षको अन्त्यमा अर्थात् ऋणहरू रद्द गरिदिने समयमा, छाप्रो-वासको चाडमा,

Moses commanded them, saying, “At the end of every seven years, in the set time of the year of release, in the feast of booths,

11 परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्‍वरले उहाँको पवित्र वासस्थानको लागि उहाँले छान्‍नुहुने ठाउँमा सारा इस्राएली उहाँको सामु देखा पर्दा तिनीहरूले सुन्‍ने गरी सारा इस्राएलीको सामु तिमीहरूले यो व्यवस्थाका वचन पढ्नू ।

when all Israel has come to appear before the LORD your God in the place which he will choose, you shall read this law before all Israel in their hearing.

12 पुरुष र स्‍त्रीहरू, बालबच्‍चाहरू, तिमीहरूका सहरभित्र बस्‍ने परदेशीलगायत सबै मानिसलाई भेला गराउनू ताकि तिनीहरूले सुनेर सिक्‍न सकून् र परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्‍वरलाई आदर गर्न सकून् अनि यस व्यवस्थाका वचनहरू पालन गर्न सकून् ।

Assemble the people, the men and the women and the little ones, and the foreigners who are within your gates, that they may hear, learn, fear the LORD your God, and observe to do all the words of this law,

13 यर्दनपारि तिमीहरूले अधिकार गर्न जान लागेको देशमा बसुञ्‍जेलसम्म यो व्यवस्था नजान्‍ने तिनीहरूका छोराछोरीहरूले पनि सुनेर परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्‍वरको भय मान्‍न सिकून् ।”

and that their children, who have not known, may hear and learn to fear the LORD your God, as long as you live in the land where you go over the Jordan to possess it.”

14 परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्‍नुभयो, “हेर, तँ मर्ने दिन आउँदै छ । यहोशूलाई डाकेर भेट हुने पालमा तेरो उपस्थितिमा ले ताकि म त्यसलाई आज्ञा दिन सकूँ ।” मोशा र यहोशू भेट हुने पालमा गएर आफैलाई उपस्थित गराए ।

The LORD said to Moses, “Behold, your days approach that you must die. Call Joshua, and present yourselves in the Tent of Meeting, that I may commission him.” Moses and Joshua went, and presented themselves in the Tent of Meeting.

15 परमप्रभु बादलको खाँबोमा पालमा देखा पर्नुभयो । बादलको खाँबो पालको ढोकामाथि अडियो ।

The LORD appeared in the Tent in a pillar of cloud, and the pillar of cloud stood over the Tent’s door.

16 परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्‍नुभयो, “हेर्, तँ तेरा पिता-पुर्खाहरूसित सुत्‍ने छस् । जुन देशमा यी मानिसहरू जाँदै छन्, त्यहाँ तिनीहरूले अनौठा देवताहरूको पछि लागि आत्मिक व्यभिचार गर्ने छन् । तिनीहरूले मलाई त्याग्‍ने छन् र मैले तिनीहरूसित बाँधेको मेरो करार भङ्ग गर्ने छन् ।

The LORD said to Moses, “Behold, you shall sleep with your fathers. This people will rise up and play the prostitute after the strange gods of the land where they go to be amongst them, and will forsake me and break my covenant which I have made with them.

17 तब त्यस दिन मेरो क्रोध तिनीहरूको विरुद्धमा दन्कने छ र म तिनीहरूलाई त्यागिदिने छु । म तिनीहरूबाट मेरो मुहार लुकाउने छु, र तिनीहरू नष्‍ट हुने छन् । तिनीहरूले धेरै विपत्ति र सङ्कष्‍टहरू झेल्ने छन् अनि त्यस दिन तिनीहरूले भन्‍ने छन्, 'के हाम्रा परमेश्‍वर हाम्रा बिचमा नहुनुभएकोले यी विपत्तिहरू हामीमाथि आइपरेका होइनन् र?'

Then my anger shall be kindled against them in that day, and I will forsake them, and I will hide my face from them, and they shall be devoured, and many evils and troubles shall come on them; so that they will say in that day, ‘Haven’t these evils come on us because our God is not amongst us?’

18 तिनीहरू अन्य देवताहरूकहाँ फर्की तिनीहरूले गर्ने तिनीहरूका सबै दुष्‍ट्याइँको कारणले त्यस दिन म निश्‍चय नै तिनीहरूबाट मेरो मुहार लुकाउने छु ।

I will surely hide my face in that day for all the evil which they have done, in that they have turned to other gods.

19 अब त्यसकारण तिमीहरूले आफ्नो निम्ति यो गीत लेखेर इस्राएलीहरूलाई सिकाओ । यसलाई कण्ठस्थ पार ताकि यो गीत इस्राएलीहरूको विरुद्धमा मेरो साक्षी होस् ।

“Now therefore write this song for yourselves, and teach it to the children of Israel. Put it in their mouths, that this song may be a witness for me against the children of Israel.

20 किनकि तिनीहरूका पिता-पुर्खाहरूलाई दिन्छु भनी मैले प्रतिज्ञा गरेको दूध र मह बग्‍ने देशमा जब मैले तिनीहरूलाई ल्याएको हुने छु, र तिनीहरू खाएर तृप्‍त भएर मोटाएका हुने छन्, तब तिनीहरू अन्य देवताहरूकहाँ लागी तिनीहरूको सेवा गर्ने छन् र तिनीहरूले मेरो तिरस्कार गरी मेरो करार भङ्ग गर्ने छन् ।

For when I have brought them into the land which I swore to their fathers, flowing with milk and honey, and they have eaten and filled themselves, and grown fat, then they will turn to other gods, and serve them, and despise me, and break my covenant.

21 जब यस जातिमाथि धेरै खराबी र सङ्कष्‍ट आइपर्ने छन्, यो गीतले तिनीहरूको सामु साक्षीको रूपमा गवाही दिने छ (किनकि यो तिनीहरूका सन्तानका मुखबाट बिर्सिने छैन) । मैले तिनीहरूलाई प्रतिज्ञा गरेको देशमा तिनीहरूलाई ल्याउनुभन्दा अगावै तिनीहरूले आज रचेका योजनाहरू मलाई थाहा छ ।”

It will happen, when many evils and troubles have come on them, that this song will testify before them as a witness; for it will not be forgotten out of the mouths of their descendants; for I know their ways and what they are doing today, before I have brought them into the land which I promised them.”

22 त्यसैले त्यही दिन मोशाले यो गीत लेखी इस्राएलीहरूलाई सिकाए ।

So Moses wrote this song the same day, and taught it to the children of Israel.

23 परमप्रभुले नूनका छोरा यहोशूलाई यस्तो आज्ञा दिई भन्‍नुभयो, “बलियो र खुबै साहसी होऊ । किनकि मैले इस्राएलीहरूलाई प्रतिज्ञा गरेको देशमा तैँले तिनीहरूलाई ल्याउने छस्, र म तँसित हुने छु ।”

He commissioned Joshua the son of Nun, and said, “Be strong and courageous; for you shall bring the children of Israel into the land which I swore to them. I will be with you.”

24 मोशाले यस व्यवस्थाका वचनहरू लेखिसिद्ध्यापछि

When Moses had finished writing the words of this law in a book, until they were finished,

25 परमप्रभुको करारको सन्दूक बोक्‍ने लेवीहरूलाई तिनले आज्ञा दिए,

Moses commanded the Levites, who bore the ark of the LORD’s covenant, saying,

26 “व्यवस्थाको यस पुस्तकलाई लिएर परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्‍वरको करारको सन्दुकको छेउमा राख ताकि यो तिमीहरूको विरुद्धमा साक्षीको रूपमा रहोस् ।

“Take this book of the law, and put it by the side of the ark of the LORD your God’s covenant, that it may be there for a witness against you.

27 किनकि म तिमीहरूको विद्रोह र हठ जान्दछु । हेर, आज म तिमीहरूसित जीवित छँदा नै तिमीहरू परमप्रभुको विरुद्धमा विद्रोही भएका छौ । मेरो मृत्युपछि झन् कति धेरै विद्रोही हुन्छौ?

For I know your rebellion and your stiff neck. Behold, while I am yet alive with you today, you have been rebellious against the LORD. How much more after my death?

28 तिमीहरूका कुलका सबै धर्म-गुरुहरू र तिमीहरूका अधिकारीहरूलाई भेला गर ताकि तिनीहरूले सुन्‍ने गरी मैले यी वचनहरू तिनीहरूलाई बोल्न सकूँ र तिनीहरूको विरुद्धमा स्वर्ग र पृथ्वीलाई साक्षी राख्‍न सकूँ ।

Assemble to me all the elders of your tribes and your officers, that I may speak these words in their ears, and call heaven and earth to witness against them.

29 किनकि म जान्दछु, कि मेरो मृत्युपछि तिमीहरू पूर्ण रूपमा भ्रष्‍ट भई मैले तिमीहरूलाई दिएको मार्गबाट बरालिने छौ । आगामी दिनहरूमा तिमीहरूमाथि विपत्तिहरू आइपर्ने छन् । तिमीहरूका हातका कामहरूले तिमीहरूले परमप्रभुलाई चिढ्याई उहाँको दृष्‍टिमा दुष्‍ट कामहरू गर्ने भएकोले यसो हुने छ ।”

For I know that after my death you will utterly corrupt yourselves, and turn away from the way which I have commanded you; and evil will happen to you in the latter days, because you will do that which is evil in the LORD’s sight, to provoke him to anger through the work of your hands.”

30 मोशाले यस गीतका शब्दहरू सुरुदेखि अन्त्यसम्म इस्राएलीहरूका सारा समुदायलाई सुनाए ।

Moses spoke in the ears of all the assembly of Israel the words of this song, until they were finished.
