व्यवस्था 9

1 हे इस्राएल हो, सुन । तिमीहरूभन्दा महान् र शक्तिशाली जातिहरू अनि आकाशै छुने पर्खाल लगाएका ठुला-ठुला सहरहरूमाथि अधिकार गर्न आज तिमीहरूले यर्दन पार गर्नै लागेका छौ ।

Hear, O Israel: Thou are to pass over the Jordan this day, to go in to dispossess nations greater and mightier than thyself, cities great and fortified up to heaven,

2 तिनीहरू महान् र अग्ला छन् जो अनाकका छोराहरू हुन् जसको बारेमा तिमीहरूलाई थाहै छ र 'अनाकका छोराहरूको सामु को खडा हुन सक्छ?' भनी तिमीहरूले सुनेकै छौ ।

a people great and tall, the sons of the Anakim, whom thou know, and of whom thou have heard say, Who can stand before the sons of Anak?

3 त्यसकारण, आज यो जानिराख कि परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्‍वर नै भस्म गर्ने आगोजस्तै तिमीहरूभन्दा अगिअगि जानुहुन्छ । उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई नष्‍ट पार्नुहुने छ, र तिमीहरूको अधीनमा ल्याउनुहुने छ । त्यसैले परमप्रभुले तिमीहरूलाई भन्‍नुभएझैँ तिमीहरूले तिनीहरूलाई धपाउने छौ, र तिनीहरूलाई चाँडै नै नष्‍ट पार्ने छौ ।

Know therefore this day, that Jehovah thy God is he who goes over before thee as a devouring fire. He will destroy them, and he will bring them down before thee. So thou shall drive them out, and make them to perish quickly, as Jehovah has spoken to thee.

4 तिमीहरूकै सामु परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्‍वरले तिनीहरूलाई निकाल्नुभएपछि आफ्नो ह्रदयमा यसो नभन, 'मेरो धार्मिकताको कारणले गर्दा परमप्रभुले मलाई यो देश अधिकार गर्न ल्याउनुभएको छ ।' बरु यी जातिहरूको दुष्‍टताको कारणले परमप्रभुले तिनीहरूलाई तिमीहरूकै सामु धपाउँदै हुनुहुन्छ ।

Do not speak thou in thy heart, after Jehovah thy God has thrust them out from before thee, saying, For my righteousness Jehovah has brought me in to possess this land. Whereas for the wickedness of these nations Jehovah drives them out from before thee.

5 तिमीहरूको धार्मिकता वा तिमीहरूको ह्रदयको सोझोपनको कारणले गर्दा तिमीहरूले तिनीहरूको देश अधिकार गर्न लागेका होइनौ, तर यी जातिहरूको दुष्‍टताको कारणले गर्दा तिमीहरूका परमेश्‍वरले तिमीहरूकै सामुन्‍ने तिनीहरूलाई धपाउँदै हुनुहुन्छ ताकि उहाँले तिमीहरूका पुर्खाहरू अब्राहाम, इसहाक र याकूबसित शपथ खानुभएको वचनलाई सत्य साबित गर्न सकून् ।

Not for thy righteousness, or for the uprightness of thy heart, do thou go in to possess their land, but for the wickedness of these nations Jehovah thy God drives them out from before thee, and that he may establish the word which Jehovah swore to thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.

6 त्यसकारण यो जानिराख, कि तिमीहरूको धार्मिकताको कारणले परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्‍वरले यो असल देश तिमीहरूलाई अधिकारको लागि दिन लाग्‍नुभएको होइन किनकि तिमीहरू त हठी मानिसहरू हौ ।

Know therefore, that Jehovah thy God does not give thee this good land to possess it for thy righteousness, for thou are a stiff-necked people.

7 उजाड-स्थानमा तिमीहरूले परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्‍वरलाई कसरी क्रोधित तुल्यायौ भनी याद राख । तिमीहरूले मिश्र देश छाडेदेखि तिमीहरू यस ठाउँमा नआउञ्‍जेलसम्म तिमीहरू परमप्रभुको विरुद्धमा विद्रोही बनेका छौ ।

Remember, do not thou forget how thou provoked Jehovah thy God to wrath in the wilderness. From the day that thou went forth out of the land of Egypt, until ye came to this place, ye have been rebellious against Jehovah.

8 साथै, हेब्रोनमा तिमीहरूले परमप्रभुलाई क्रोधित तुल्यायौ, र तिमीहरूलाई नाशै पार्ने गरी उहाँ क्रुद्ध हुनुभयो ।

Also in Horeb ye provoked Jehovah to wrath, and Jehovah was angry with you to destroy you.

9 परमप्रभुले तिमीहरूसित बाँध्‍नुभएका करारका शिला-पाटीहरू लिन म पर्वतमा उक्लँदा म चालिस दिन चालिस रातसम्म पर्वतमा बसेँ । मैले न रोटी खाएँ, न पानी पिएँ ।

When I was gone up onto the mount to receive the tablets of stone, even the tablets of the covenant which Jehovah made with you, then I abode on the mount forty days and forty nights. I neither ate bread nor drank water.

10 परमप्रभुले मलाई आफ्नै औँलाले लेख्‍नुभएका दुईवटा शिला-पाटी दिनुभयो । सभाको दिनमा आगोको बिचबाट परमप्रभुले पर्वतमा बोल्नुभएका सबै वचन तिनमा लेखिएका थिए ।

And Jehovah delivered to me the two tablets of stone written with the finger of God. And on them was according to all the words, which Jehovah spoke with you in the mount out of the midst of the fire in the day of the assembly.

11 ती चालिस दिन र चालिस रातको अन्त्यमा परमप्रभुले मलाई करारका दुईवटा शिला-पाटी दिनुभयो ।

And it came to pass, at the end of forty days and forty nights, that Jehovah gave me the two tablets of stone, even the tablets of the covenant.

12 परमप्रभुले मलाई भन्‍नुभयो, 'उठेर छिटो गरी यहाँबाट तल जा किनकि तैँले मिश्रबाट ल्याएका तेरा मानिसहरूले आफैलाई भ्रष्‍ट पारेका छन् । मैले तिनीहरूलाई आज्ञा गरेको मार्गबाट तिनीहरू चाँडै नै तर्केर गएका छन् । तिनीहरूले आफ्नो निम्ति ढलौटे मूर्ति बनाएका छन् ।'

And Jehovah said to me, Arise, get thee down quickly from here, for thy people that thou have brought forth out of Egypt have corrupted themselves. They have quickly turned aside out of the way which I commanded them. They have made them a molten image.

13 यसबाहेक, परमप्रभुले मलाई भन्‍नुभयो, 'मैले यी मानिसहरूलाई देखेको छु र तिनीहरू हठी छन् ।

Furthermore Jehovah spoke to me, saying, I have seen this people, and, behold, it is a stiff-necked people.

14 मलाई एक्लै छोडिदे ताकि मैले तिनीहरूलाई नष्‍ट गर्नू सकूँ र स्वर्गमूनिबाट तिनीहरूको नाउँ मेटाइदिन सकूँ र तँबाट नै तिनीहरूभन्दा महान् र शक्तिशाली जाति बनाउन सकूँ ।'

Let me alone, that I may destroy them, and blot out their name from under heaven, and I will make of thee a nation mightier and greater than they.

15 त्यसैले म फर्केर पर्वतबाट ओर्ली आएँ, अनि पर्वत जलिरहेको थियो । करारका दुईवटा शिला-पाटी मेरा हातमा थिए ।

So I turned and came down from the mount, and the mount was burning with fire. And the two tablets of the covenant were in my two hands.

16 मैले हेरेँ र तिमीहरूले परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्‍वरको विरुद्धमा पाप गरेका थियौ । तिमीहरूले आफ्नो निम्ति बाछाको ढलौटे मूर्ति बनाएका थियौ । परमप्रभुले तिमीहरूलाई आज्ञा गर्नुभएको मार्गबाट तिमीहरू चाँडै नै तर्केर गएका थियौ ।

And I looked, and, behold, ye had sinned against Jehovah your God. Ye had made you a molten calf. Ye had turned aside quickly out of the way which Jehovah had commanded you.

17 मैले ती दुईवटा शिला-पाटीलाई लिएर मेरा हातबाट फालिदिएँ । मैले तिमीहरूकै सामु तिनलाई टुक्रा-टुक्रा पारिदिएँ ।

And I took hold of the two tablets, and cast them out of my two hands, and broke them before your eyes.

18 फेरि, मैले न रोटी खाएँ न पानी पिएँ । परमप्रभुको दृष्‍टिमा दुष्‍ट काम गरेर उहाँलाई चिढ्याई तिमीहरूका सबै पापको कारणले गर्दा चालिस दिन र चालिस रातसम्म म परमप्रभुको सामु लम्पसार परेँ ।

And I fell down before Jehovah, as at the first, forty days and forty nights. I neither ate bread nor drank water, because of all your sin which ye sinned, in doing that which was evil in the sight of Jehovah, to provoke him to anger.

19 किनकि तिमीहरूलाई नाशै पार्ने गरी तिमीहरूको विरुद्धमा भएको परमप्रभुको रिस र कडा बेखुसीको कारणले म भयभीत भएँ । तर त्यस बेला पनि परमप्रभुले मेरो कुरा सुन्‍नुभयो ।

For I was afraid of the anger and hot displeasure with which Jehovah was angry against you to destroy you. But Jehovah hearkened to me that time also.

20 हारूनलाई नष्‍ट गर्ने गरी उहाँ तिनीसित ज्यादै रिसाउनुभयो । त्यस बेला मैले हारूनको लागि पनि प्रार्थना गरेँ ।

And Jehovah was very angry with Aaron to destroy him. And I prayed for Aaron also at the same time.

21 मैले तिमीहरूको पाप अर्थात् तिमीहरूले बनाएको बाछो लिएर त्यसलाई जलाइदिएँ अनि त्यसलाई चकनाचुर पारेर धूलोपिठो पारिदिएँ । मैले त्यस धूलोलाई पर्वतबाट आउने खोलामा फालिदिएँ ।

And I took your sin, the calf which ye had made, and burnt it with fire, and stamped it, grinding it very small, until it was as fine as dust. And I cast the dust of it into the brook that descended out of the mount.

22 तबेरा, मस्साह र किब्रोथ-हत्तावामा तिमीहरूले परमप्रभुलाई क्रोधित तुल्यायौ ।

And at Taberah, and at Massah, and at Kibroth-hattaavah, ye provoked Jehovah to wrath.

23 परमप्रभुले तिमीहरूलाई कादेश-बर्नेमा यसो भनी पठाउनुहुँदा, 'मैले तिमीहरूलाई दिएको देशमा गएर त्यसलाई अधिकार गर' तिमीहरूले परमप्रभु तिमीहरूको परमेश्‍वरको आज्ञाको विरुद्धमा विद्रोह गर्‍यौ, अनि उहाँको कुरा मानेनौ वा सुनेनौ ।

And when Jehovah sent you from Kadesh-barnea, saying, Go up and possess the land which I have given you, then ye rebelled against the commandment of Jehovah your God, and ye did not believe him, nor hearken to his voice.

24 मैले तिमीहरूलाई चिनेको दिनदेखि नै तिमीहरू परमप्रभुको विरुद्धमा बागी भएका छौ ।

Ye have been rebellious against Jehovah from the day that I knew you.

25 परमप्रभुले तिमीहरूलाई नष्‍ट गर्नुहुनेथियो भनी उहाँले भन्‍नुभएकोले म चालिस दिन चालिस रातसम्म उहाँको सामु लम्पसार परेँ ।

So I fell down before Jehovah the forty days and forty nights that I fell down, because Jehovah had said he would destroy you.

26 मैले परमप्रभुलाई यसो भनी प्रार्थना चढाएँ, 'हे परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर, तपाईंले आफ्ना मानिसहरू अर्थात् तपाईंको सम्पत्तिलाई नष्‍ट नगर्नुहोस् जसलाई तपाईंले आफ्नो महान्‌ताद्वारा छुटकारा दिनुभएको छ र आफ्नो शक्तिशाली हातले मिश्रबाट ल्याउनुभएको छ ।

And I prayed to Jehovah, and said, O lord Jehovah, destroy not thy people and thine inheritance, that thou have redeemed through thy greatness, that thou have brought forth out of Egypt with a mighty hand.

27 तपाईंका दासहरू अब्राहाम, इसहाक र याकूबलाई सम्झनुहोस् । यो जातिको हठलाई नहेर्नुहोस् न त तिनीहरूका दुष्‍टता र पापलाई नै हेर्नुहोस् ।

Remember thy servants, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Look not to the stubbornness of this people, nor to their profaneness, nor to their sin,

28 नत्रता तपाईंले हामीलाई जुन देशबाट ल्याउनुभयो त्यसले भन्ला, 'परमप्रभुले प्रतिज्ञा गर्नुभएको देशमा उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई लैजान नसक्‍नुभएकोले र उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई घृणा गर्नुभएकोले तिनीहरूलाई उजाड-स्थानमा मार्न उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई बाहिर ल्याउनुभएको छ ।'

lest the land from where thou brought us out say, Because Jehovah was not able to bring them into the land which he promised to them, and because he hated them, he has brought them out to kill them in the wilderness.

29 तथापि तिनीहरू तपाईंका मानिसहरू र तपाईंको सम्पत्ति हुन् जसलाई तपाईंले आफ्नो महाशक्ति र तपाईंको शक्तिको प्रदर्शनीद्वारा बाहिर ल्याउनुभयो ।'

Yet they are thy people and thine inheritance, which thou brought out by thy great power and by thine outstretched arm.
