प्रस्थान 10
1 परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्नुभयो, “फारोकहाँ जा किनकि मैले त्यसको र त्यसका अधिकारीहरूका ह्रदय कठोर बनाइदिएको छु । तिनीहरूका बिचमा मेरो शक्तिका यी चिन्हहरू देखाउनलाई मैले यसो गरेको हुँ ।
Then said Yahweh unto Moses, Go in unto Pharaoh, —for, I, have suffered his heart to be dull and the heart of his servants, that I may show these my signs, in their midst;
2 मैले गरेका कुराहरू, मैले मिश्रलाई कसरी कठोरतापूर्वक व्यवहार गरेँ र तिनीहरूका बिचमा मेरो शक्तिका विभिन्न चिन्हहरू कसरी देखाएँ भनी तैँले तेरा छोराछोरीहरू र नातिनातिनाहरूलाई बताउनेछस् भनेर पनि मैले यसो गरेको हुँ । यसरी म परमप्रभु हुँ भनी तैँले जान्नेछस् ।”
and that thou mayest recount in the ears of thy son and thy sons’ son, what I did in derision of the Egyptians, and my signs which I displayed among them, —so shall ye know that I, am Yahweh.
3 त्यसैले मोशा र हारून फारोकहाँ गए र भने, “हिब्रूहरूका परमप्रभु परमेश्वर यसो भन्नुहुन्छः मेरो सामु आफैलाई विनम्र पार्न कहिलेसम्म अस्वीकार गर्छस्? मेरो आराधना गर्न मेरा मानिसहरूलाई जान दे ।
And Moses and Aaron went in unto Pharaoh, and said unto him—Thus, saith Yahweh, God of the Hebrews, How long hast thou refused to humble thyself before me? Let my people go that they may serve me.
4 तैँले मेरा मानिसहरूलाई जान दिन इन्कार गरिस् भने सुन्, भोलि म तेरो देशमा सलहहरू ल्याउनेछु ।
But if, refusing, thou art to let my people go, behold me bringing in tomorrow a locust within thy bounds;
5 कसैले जमिनलाई देख्न नसक्ने गरी तिनीहरूले भुइँलाई ढाक्नेछन् । असिनाबाट बचेर रहेका कुनै पनि चिज तिनीहरूले खाइदिनेछन् । खेतमा उम्रने हरेक रुखलाई पनि तिनीहरूले खाइदिनेछन् ।
and it shall cover the eye of the land, so that one shall not be able to see the land, —and it shall eat the residue that hath escaped, that is left you from the hail, and shall eat up all the trees that sprout for you out of the field;
6 तिनीहरू तेरा, तेरा सबै अधिकारीसाथै सबै मिश्रीका घरहरूमा भरिनेछन् । यस्तो तिमीहरूका बुबा र हजुर बुबाहरूले पृथ्वीको स्थापना भएदेखि आजको दिनसम्म कहिल्यै देखेका छैनन्' ।” त्यसपछि मोशा फारोकहाँबाट निस्केर गए ।
and they shall fill thy houses, and the houses of all thy servants and the houses of all the Egyptians, such as thy fathers and thy fathers’ fathers have never seen, from the day they came to be on the ground, until this day. And he turned away, and came out from the presence of Pharaoh.
7 फारोका अधिकारीहरूले तिनलाई भने, “कहिलेसम्म यो मानिसले हामीलाई धम्की दिने? तिनीहरूका परमप्रभु परमेश्वरलाई आराधना गर्न इस्राएलीहरूलाई जान दिनुहोस् । मिश्र नष्ट भएको के हजुरले देख्नुभएको छैन र?”
Then said the servants of Pharaoh unto him, How long shall this [man] become to us a snare? Let the men go, that they may serve Yahweh their God. Not yet, knowest thou, that Egypt is, ruined?
8 मोशा र हारून फेरि पनि फारोकहाँ ल्याइए । फारोले तिनीहरूलाई भने, “तिमीहरूका परमप्रभु परमेश्वरको आराधना गर्न जाओ । तर जानेहरूचाहिँ को-को हुनेछन्?”
So Moses and Aaron were brought back unto pharaoh, and he said unto them—Go, serve Yahweh your God, —who, are they that are going?
9 मोशाले भने, “हामी हाम्रा छोराछोरीहरू, बुढाबुढीहरू लिएर जानेछौँ । हामीले हाम्रा गाईवस्तु र भेडा-बाख्राहरू लिएर जानेछौँ किनकि हामीले परमप्रभुको निम्ति चाड मनाउनुपर्छ ।”
And Moses said, With our young and with our old, will we go, —with our sons and with our daughters with our flocks and with our herds, will we go, —for, the festival of Yahweh, is ours.
10 फारोले तिनीहरूलाई भने, “मैले तिमीहरू र तिमीहरूका सन्तानहरूलाई जान दिएँ भने वास्तवमा परमप्रभु तिमीहरूसँगै होऊन् । हेर, तिमीहरूको मनमा कुनै दुष्टता छ ।
Then he said unto them: Let Yahweh, so, be with you, when I let go you and your little ones! Look out for, harm, is straight before your faces.
11 तिमीहरूमा बिचमा भएका पुरुषहरू मात्र गएर परमप्रभुको आराधना गरून् किनकि तिमीहरूले चाहेको यही नै हो ।” त्यसपछि मोशा र हारूनलाई फारोको उपस्थितिबाट हटाइयो ।
Not so! Go, I pray you, ye grown men and serve Yahweh, for, that, is what, ye, were seeking. And they were driven out from the presence of Pharaoh.
12 तब परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्नुभयो, “सलहहरू मिश्र देशमा आऊन् भनी तेरो हात पसार् । असिनाको आक्रमणबाट बाँकी रहेका मिश्र देशका हरेक थोकमाथि तिनीहरूले आक्रमण गरून् ।”
Then said Yahweh unto Moses—Stretch forth thy hand over the land of Egypt for the locust, that it may come up over the land of Egypt, —and may eat up every herb of the land, all that the hail hath left.
13 मोशाले आफ्नो लट्ठी मिश्र देशमाथि पसारे अनि परमप्रभुले दिनरात समस्त देशमा पूर्वीय बतास चलाइदिनुभयो । बिहान हुँदा पूर्वीय बतासले सलहहरू ल्याएको थियो ।
And Moses stretched forth his staff over the land of Egypt, and, Yahweh, caused an east wind to drive through the land, all that day, and all the night, —when the morning, had come, the east wind, had brought the locust.
14 सलहहरू मिश्र देशभरि गए र यसका सबै भू-भागमा हुल-हुल भएर बसे । त्यस देशमा सलहहरूको यस्तो हुल कहिल्यै देखा परेको थिएन र यसपछि पनि यस्तो कहिल्यै हुनेछैन ।
And the locust came up over all the land of Egypt, and settled in all the bounds of Egypt, —very grievous, before it, had not been such a locust as that, neither after it, should be one like it.
15 पुरै अन्धकार हुने गरी तिनीहरूले पुरै देशको सतहलाई ढाके । असिनाले नष्ट गरेर छाडेका रुखहरूका सबै फल र खेतका सबै बोट-बिरुवा तिनीहरूले खाइदिए । मिश्र देशभरि कुनै जीवित हरियो बिरुवा बाँकी रहेन न त खेतमा नै कुनै रुख-बिरुवा बाँकी रह्यो ।
So it covered the eye of all the land and the land was darkened, and it did eat every herb of the land and all the fruit of the trees, which the hail had left remaining, —so that there was not left remaining any green sprout in the trees or in the herb of the field in all the land of Egypt.
16 त्यसपछि फारोले झट्टै मोशा र हारूनलाई डाक्न पठाए र भने, “मैले तिमीहरूका परमेश्वर र तिमीहरूको विरुद्धमा पाप गरेको छु ।
Then hastened Pharaoh, to call for Moses and for Aaron, —and said—I have sinned against Yahweh your God, and against you.
17 अब यस पल्ट मेरो पाप क्षमा गरिदेऊ र मबाट यस मृत्युलाई लगियोस् भनी तिमीहरूका परमप्रभु परमेश्वरसित बिन्ती चढाइदेओ ।”
Now, therefore, forgive I pray you my sin—only this time, and make entreaty to Yahweh your God, —that he may take away from me, at least, this death.
18 त्यसैले मोशा फारोकहाँबाट गए र परमप्रभुलाई बिन्ती चढाए ।
So he came out from Pharaoh, —and made entreaty unto Yahweh;
19 परमप्रभुले निकै शक्तिशाली पश्चिमी बतास चलाइदिनुभयो जसले सलहहरूलाई उडाई लाल समुद्रमा लग्यो । मिश्रका इलाकाभित्र एउटै पनि सलह रहेन ।
and Yahweh turned back a west wind strong exceedingly, and carried away the locust and cast it into the Red Sea, —there was not left a single locust in all the bounds of Egypt.
20 तर परमप्रभुले फारोको ह्रदय कठोर बनाइदिनुभयो र तिनले इस्राएलीहरूलाई जान दिएनन् ।
But Yahweh suffered the heart of Pharaoh to wax bold, —and he did not let the sons of Israel go.
21 त्यसपछि परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्नुभयो, “आकाशतिर तेरो हात पसार् अनि मिश्र देशभरि महसुस गर्न सकिने अन्धकार होस् ।”
Then said Yahweh unto Moses: Stretch forth thy hand over the heavens, that there may be darkness, over the land of Egypt, —and that one may feel the darkness.
22 मोशाले आफ्नो हात आकाशतिर पसारे र मिश्र देशभरि तिन दिनसम्म निस्पट्ट अन्धकार छायो ।
So Moses stretched forth his hand over the heavens, —and there was thick darkness in all the land of Egypt for three days;
23 कसैले कसैलाई देख्न सक्दैनथ्यो । तिन दिनसम्म कोही पनि आफ्नो घरबाहिर निस्केन । तर सबै इस्राएली बसेको ठाउँमा भने उज्यालै थियो ।
they saw not one another neither rose any man from his couch for three days, —but all the sons of Israel, had light in their dwellings.
24 फारोले मोशालाई बोलाउन पठाए र भने, “गएर परमप्रभुको आराधना गर । तिमीहरूका परिवारहरू पनि तिमीहरूसँगै जान सक्नेछन्, तर तिमीहरूका गाईवस्तु र भेडा-बाख्राहरूलाई भने यहीँ छाड ।”
Then Pharaoh called out unto Moses and said—Go serve Yahweh, only, your flocks and your herds, shall be left, —even your little ones shall go with you.
25 तर मोशाले भने, “हाम्रा परमप्रभु परमेश्वरलाई बलिदान चढाउन तपाईंले हामीलाई बलिदान र होमबलिको निम्ति पशुहरू पनि दिनुपर्छ ।
And Moses said, Even thou thyself, shalt give into our hands sacrifices and ascending-offerings, —so shall we present offerings to Yahweh our God.
26 हाम्रा गाईवस्तु पनि हामीसितै जानुपर्छ । तिनीहरूका खुर पनि छोडिनुहुँदैन किनकि हाम्रा परमप्रभु परमेश्वरको आराधना गर्न हामीले तिनलाई लैजानैपर्छ । किनकि हामी त्यहाँ नपुगेसम्म हामीले परमप्रभुलाई के-के चढाएर आराधना गर्ने भनी हामीलाई थाहा हुँदैन ।”
Moreover also, our own cattle, shall go with us—there shall not be left behind, a hoof, for thereof, must we take, to serve Yahweh our God, —even we ourselves, cannot know wherewith we must serve Yahweh, until we have come in thither.
27 तर परमप्रभुले फारोको ह्रदय कठोर पारिदिनुभयो र तिनले तिनीहरूलाई जान दिएनन् ।
And Yahweh let the heart of Pharaoh wax bold, —and he was not willing to let them go.
28 फारोले मोशालाई भने, “मबाट जाऊ! एउटा कुराको बारेमा होसियार होऊ । अबदेखि मेरो सामु देख नपर किनकि मेरो अनुहार देखेको दिनमा तिमी मर्नेछौ ।”
So Pharaoh said to him—Get thee from me, —take heed to thyself—do not any more! see my face, for in the day thou dost see my face, thou shalt die.
29 मोशाले भने, “तपाईंले भन्नुभएझैँ होस् । म फेरि तपाईंको अनुहार हेर्नेछैनँ ।”
And Moses said—Well hast thou spoken, —no more again to see thy face.
