प्रस्थान 15
1 तब मोशा र इस्राएलका मानिसहरूले परमप्रभुको निम्ति यो गीत गाए । तिनीहरूले भने, “म परमप्रभुको निम्ति गाउनेछु किनकि उहाँले महिमामा विजय हासिल गर्नुभएको छ । घोडा र यसको सवारलाई उहाँले समुद्रमा फालिदिनुभएको छ ।
Then Moses/I sang this song, and the Israeli people sang with him: “I will sing to Yahweh, because he has triumphed gloriously; He has thrown the horses and their riders into the sea!
2 परमप्रभु मेरो शक्ति र गीत हुनुहुन्छ, र उहाँ मेरा उद्धार हुनुभएको छ । उहाँ मेरा परमेश्वर हुनुहुन्छ, र म उहाँको प्रशंसा गर्नेछु । उहाँ मेरा पिता-पुर्खाका परमेश्वर हुनुहुन्छ र म उहाँलाई उचाल्छु ।
Yahweh is the one who makes me strong, and he is the one I sing about. He is the one who has saved me. He is (my God/God, the one I worship), and I will praise him. He is the one my father worshiped, and I will tell [others] how great he is.
3 परमप्रभु मेरा योद्धा हुनुहुन्छ, उहाँको नाउँ परमप्रभु हो ।
Yahweh is a warrior; Yahweh is his name.
4 उहाँले फारोका रथहरू र सेनालाई समुद्रमा फालिदिनुभएको छ । फारोका छानिएका अधिकृतहरू लाल समुद्रमा डुबे ।
He has thrown the king’s chariots and his army into the sea; His best officers all drowned in the Red Sea (OR, Gulf of Suez).
5 गहिराइले तिनीहरूलाई छोप्यो । तिनीहरू पत्थरजस्तै गहिराइमा डुबे ।
The [water covered them like] a flood; they sank to the bottom like a stone.
6 हे परमप्रभु, तपाईंको दाहिने बाहुली शक्तिमा महिमित छ । हे परमप्रभु, तपाईंको दाहिने बाहुलीले शत्रुलाई चकनाचुर पारिदिएको छ ।
O Yahweh, your right arm has awesome power; with that power [MTY], O Yahweh, you have crushed/smashed the enemy into pieces.
7 महान् गौरवमा तपाईंले तपाईंको विरुद्धमा उठ्नेहरूलाई तल झारिदिनुभयो । तपाईंले आफ्नो क्रोध पठाउनुभयो । यसले तिनीहरूलाई ठोसालाई झैँ भस्म पार्यो ।
You have gloriously defeated your enemies. Because you were angry with them, you have [destroyed them] like a fire burns up straw [SIM].
8 तपाईंको नाकको सासले पानीको थुप्रो लाग्यो । बगिरहेको पानी स्थिर भई उभियो । गहिरो पानी समुद्रको मुटुमा जम्यो ।
You blew on the sea, and the water piled up high; the water stood up like two walls. In the deepest part of the sea [the water] became thick/solid, [as though] it was frozen.
9 शत्रुले भन्यो, 'म पिछा गर्नेछु; म जित्नेछु; म लुटका मालहरू बाँड्नेछु । मेरो इच्छा तिनमा तृप्त हुनेछ । म मेरो तरवार थुत्नेछु । मेरा हातले तिनीहरूलाई नष्ट पार्नेछन् ।'
[Our] enemies said, ‘We will pursue them and catch up to them. We will draw our swords and strike them. After we defeat them, we will divide up the spoils. We will take [from them] all we want.’
10 तर तपाईंले आफ्नो बतास चलाइदिनुभयो, र समुद्रले तिनलाई ढाक्यो । तिनीहरू उर्लंदो भेलमा सिसाजस्तै डुबे ।
But you blew on them with your breath, and then the sea covered them. They sank like lead/rocks in the big waves.
11 हे परमप्रभु, देवहरूका बिचमा तपाईंजस्तो को छ र? पवित्रतामा तपाईं वैभवशाली, प्रशंसामा आदरणीय, आश्चर्यकर्म गर्नुहुने तपाईंजस्तै को छ र?
Yahweh, among their gods, there is no god like you [RHQ]! You are glorious, completely different from all that you made. (There is no god like you!/What god is like you?) [RHQ] There is no one who can perform all kinds of miracles [DOU] like you do [RHQ]!
12 तपाईंले आफ्नो दाहिले बाहुली पसार्नुभयो, र पृथ्वीले तिनीहरूलाई निल्यो ।
When you stretched out your right hand, the earth swallowed up [our enemies]
13 तपाईंको करारको बफादारीमा तपाईंले आफूले छुटकारा दिनुभएका मानिसहरूलाई डोर्याउनुभएको छ । तपाईंको शक्तिमा तपाईंले तिनीहरूलाई तपाईंको पवित्र वासस्थानमा डोर्याउनुभएको छ ।
You faithfully loved the people you rescued; with your power you are leading them to the land that you have set apart.
14 जाति-जातिहरूले सुन्नेछन्, र तिनीहरू थरथर काँप्नेछन् । त्रासले पलिश्तीहरूका बासिन्दाहरूलाई पक्रनेछ ।
The people of [other] nations will hear [what you have done]; and they will tremble. The people in Philistia will be terrified.
15 तब एदोमका मुखियाहरू डराउनेछन् । मोआबका सिपाहीहरू हल्लिनेछन् । कनानका सबै बासिन्दा पग्लनेछन् ।
The chiefs in Edom will be dismayed. The leaders in Moab will be so afraid, they will shake. All those who live in Canaan will faint.
16 आतङ्क र त्रास उनीहरूमाथि पर्नेछन् । हे परमप्रभु, तपाईंका मानिसहरू पार नहोउञ्जेल र तपाईंले छुटकारा दिनुभएका मानिसहरू पार नहोउञ्जेल तपाईंको पाखुराको शक्तिको कारणले तिनीहरू पत्थरझैँ अचल रहनेछन् ।
They will be terrified and fearful because of your great strength [MTY]. But they will be as silent as stones until your people march past them, the people you freed from being slaves in Egypt,
17 तपाईंले तिनीहरूलाई ल्याउनुहुनेछ, र तिनीहरूलाई तपाईंको उत्तराधिकारको पर्वतमा रोप्नुहुनेछ । हे परमप्रभु, यो त्यो ठाउँ हो जहाँ तपाईंले आफ्नो बासस्थान बनाउनुभयो, हे हाम्रा प्रभु जुन पवित्रस्थानलाई तपाईंका हातले बनाएका छन् ।
to go to [Canaan land]. You will enable them to live [MET] on your hill, at the place that you, O Yahweh, have chosen to be your home, in the (holy place/temple) that you yourself will build.
18 परमप्रभुले सदासर्वदा शासन गर्नुहुनेछ ।”
O Yahweh, you will rule forever!
19 किनकि फारोका घोडाहरू तिनीहरूका रथहरू र घोडचढीहरूसँगै समुद्रमा पुगे । परमप्रभुले तिनीहरूमाथि फेरि समुद्रको पानी फर्काएर ल्याउनुभयो । तर इस्राएलीहरू समुद्रको बिचमा ओबानो भूमिबाट हिँडेर गए ।
The Israeli people walked through the middle of the sea on dry ground. But when the king’s horses and chariots and horsemen tried to go through the sea, Yahweh caused the water to come back and cover them.”
20 हारूनकी दिदी अगमवादिनी मिरियमले खैँजडी लिइन्, र सबै स्त्रीले पनि खैँजडी लिँदै उनीसँगै नाचे ।
Then Miriam, who was Aaron’s older sister and a (prophetess/woman who spoke messages that came directly from God), picked up her tambourine,
21 मिरियमले तिनीहरूका निम्ति गाइन्, “परमप्रभुको निम्ति गाओ किनकि उहाँले महिमामा विजय हासिल गर्नुभएको छ । घोडा र यसको सवारलाई उहाँले समुद्रमा फालिदिनुभएको छ ।”
and she sang this song to Yahweh: “Sing to Yahweh, because he has triumphed gloriously [over his enemies]. He has thrown the horses and their riders into the sea.”
22 तब मोशाले इस्राएललाई लाल समुद्रबाट अगाडि लगे । तिनीहरू शूरको उजाड-स्थानमा लागे । तिन दिनसम्म तिनीहरूले उजाड-स्थानमा यात्रा गरे र पानी पाएनन्
Then Moses/I led the Israeli people away from the Red Sea (OR, Gulf of Suez). They/we went to the desert at Shur. They/We walked for three days, but they/we could not find any water.
23 । त्यसपछि तिनीहरू मारा भन्ने ठाउँमा आइपुगे, तर त्यहाँको पानी तितो भएकोले तिनीहरूले पिउन सकेनन् । त्यसैले तिनीहरूले त्यस ठाउँको नाउँ मारा राखे ।
So they/we [went on and] came to a [place named] Marah. [There was] water [there, but] they/we could not drink it, because it was bitter. That is why they named the place Marah, [which is the Hebrew word that means ‘bitter’].
24 त्यसकारण मानिसहरूले “हामीले के पिउने?” भनी मोशालाई गनगन गरे ।
The people complained to Moses/me, saying, “What are we going to drink?”
25 मोशाले परमप्रभुलाई पुकारा गरे, र उहाँले तिनलाई एउटा बिरुवा देखाइदिनुभयो । मोशाले त्यसलाई पानीमा हाल्दा पानी पिउनलाई मिठो भयो । त्यहीँ नै परमप्रभुले तिनीहरूलाई कडा विधि दिनुभयो, त्यहाँ नै उहाँले तिनीहरूको जाँच गर्नुभयो ।
So Moses/I prayed earnestly to Yahweh. Then Yahweh showed him/me a tree. So he/I cut off [one of the branches] and threw it into the water, and the water became good to drink. There at Marah, Yahweh gave them various laws to direct their lives. He also tested them there, to determine if they would obey him,
26 उहाँले भन्नुभयो, “तिमीहरूले तिमीहरूका परमप्रभु परमेश्वरको आवाजलाई होसियारीपूर्वक सुन्यौ, र उहाँको दृष्टिमा जे ठिक छ त्यही गर्यौ, र तिमीहरूले उहाँका आज्ञाहरूमा ध्यान दियौ र उहाँका विधिहरू पालन गर्यौ भने मैले मिश्रीहरूमाथि ल्याएको कुनै पनि विपत्ति तिमीहरूमाथि ल्याउनेछैनँ किनकि म चङ्गाइ गर्ने परमेश्वर हुँ ।”
by saying, “I am Yahweh, your God. If you will carefully obey me when I speak [to you], and do those things that I know are right, and pay close attention to all the things that I command you, I will keep you from being afflicted by all the diseases that I brought on the Egyptians. Do not forget that I am the one who heals you.”
27 तब मानिसहरू एलीममा आइपुगे जहाँ पानीका बार्हवटा मुल र सत्तरीवटा खजुरका रुख थिए । तिनीहरूले पानी नजिकै पाल टाँगे ।
[After they/we left Marah], they/we came to a [place named] Elim. There were twelve springs of water and 70 palm trees there. So they/we camped there.
