प्रस्थान 20
1 परमेश्वरले यी सबै वचन बोल्नुभयोः
And the Lord spoke all these words, saying:
2 “म परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्वर हुँ जसले तिमीहरूलाई मिश्र देश अर्थात् दासत्वको घरबाट निकालेर ल्याएँ ।
I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
3 मेरो अगि अरू कुनै देवी-देवता नमान्नू ।
You shall have no other gods beside me.
4 आफ्नो निम्ति खोपेर माथि स्वर्गमा वा तल पृथ्वीमा वा पानीमुनि भएको कुनै पनि थोकको प्रतिमूर्ति नबनाउनू ।
You shall not make to yourself an idol, nor likeness of anything, whatever things are in the heaven above, and whatever are in the earth beneath, and whatever are in the waters under the earth.
5 तिनीहरूको अगि ननिहरनू वा तिनीहरूको पूजा नगर्नू किनकि म परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्वर डाही परमेश्वर हुँ । म मलाई घृणा गर्ने पिता-पुर्खाहरूको दुष्टताको दण्ड तिनीहरूका सन्तानहरूको तेस्रो र चौथो पुस्तासम्म दिनेछु ।
You shall not bow down to them, nor serve them; for I am the Lord your God, a jealous God, recompensing the sins of the fathers upon the children, to the third and fourth generation to them that hate me,
6 तर मलाई प्रेम गर्ने र मेरा आज्ञाहरू पालन गर्ने हजारौँ पुस्तासम्म म मेरो करारको विश्वसनीयता देखाउनेछु ।
and bestowing mercy on them that love me to thousands [of them], and on them that keep my commandments.
7 परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्वरको नाउँ व्यर्थमा नलिनू किनकि मेरो नाउँ व्यर्थमा लिने जोसुकैलाई पनि म निरपराध छोड्नेछैनँ ।
You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain; for the Lord your God will not acquit him that takes his name in vain.
8 मेरो लागि शबाथ अलग गर्नुपर्छ भनी याद राख्नू ।
Remember the sabbath day to keep it holy.
9 तिमीहरूले छ दिनसम्म परिश्रम गर्नुपर्छ र काम गर्नुपर्छ ।
Six days you shall labour, and shall perform all your work.
10 तर सातौँचाहिँ दिन परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्वरको शबाथ हो । यस दिनमा तिमीहरूले, तिमीहरूका छोराछोरी वा तिमीहरूका कमारा-कमारी वा तिमीहरूका गाईवस्तु वा तिमीहरूको द्वारभित्र भएका परदेशीले कुनै काम नगरोस् ।
But on the seventh day is the sabbath of the Lord your God; on it you shall do no work, you, nor your son, nor your daughter, your servant nor your maidservant, your ox nor your ass, nor any cattle of your, nor the stranger that sojourns with you.
11 किनकि छ दिनमा परमप्रभुले स्वर्ग र पृथ्वी, समुद्र र तिनमा भएका सबै थोक बनाउनुभयो अनि सातौँ दिनमा चाहिँ उहाँले विश्राम लिनुभयो । त्यसकारण परमप्रभुले शबाथ-दिनलाई आशिष् दिनुभयो र यसलाई पवित्र तुल्याउनुभयो ।
For in six days the Lord made the heaven and the earth, and the sea and all things in them, and rested on the seventh day; therefore the Lord blessed the seventh day, and hallowed it.
12 आफ्ना बुबा र आमालाई आदर गर्नू ताकि परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्वरले तिमीहरूलाई दिन लाग्नुभएको देशमा तिमीहरूको आयु लामो होस् ।
Honour your father and your mother, that it may be well with you, and that you may live long on the good land, which the Lord your God gives to you.
13 कसैको हत्या नगर्नू ।
You shall not commit adultery.
14 कसैसित व्यभिचार नगर्नू ।
You shall not steal.
15 कसैबाट केही नचोर्नू ।
You shall not kill.
16 आफ्नो छिमेकीको विरुद्धमा झुटो गवाही नदिनू ।
You shall not bear false witness against your neighbour.
17 आफ्नो छिमेकीको घरको लालच नगर्नू; आफ्नो छिमेकीकी पत्नीको लालच नगर्नू; आफ्नो छिमेकीको कमारा, कमारी, गोरु, गधा वा कुनै पनि थोकको लालच नगर्नू ।”
You shall not covet your neighbour's wife; you shall not covet your neighbour's house; nor his field, nor his servant, nor his maid, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any of his cattle, nor whatever belongs to your neighbour.
18 सबै मानिसले गर्जनको आवाज सुने र बिजुली चम्केको देखे अनि तुरहीको आवाज सुने र पर्वतबाट धुवा उठिरहेको देखे । मानिसहरूले यो देख्दा तिनीहरू थरथर काँपे र टाढै बसे ।
And all the people perceived the thundering, and the flashes, and the voice of the trumpet, and the mountain smoking; and all the people feared and stood afar off,
19 तिनीहरूले मोशालाई भने, “हामीसित कुरा गर्नुहोस् र हामी तपाईंको कुरा सुन्नेछौँ । तर परमेश्वर हामीसित नबोल्नुभएको होस् नत्रता हामी मर्नेछौँ ।”
and said to Moses, Speak you to us, and let not God speak to us, lest we die.
20 मोशाले मानिसहरूलाई भने, “नडराओ किनकि तिमीहरूमा उहाँको डर होस् र तिमीहरूले पाप नगरून् भनी तिमीहरूलाई जाँच गर्न परमेश्वर ओर्लनुभएको छ ।”
And Moses says to them, Be of good courage, for God is come to you to try you, that his fear may be amongst you, that you sin not.
21 त्यसैले मानिसहरू टाढै खडा रहे, अनि मोशा परमेश्वर हुनुभएको बाक्लो बादलको नजिक गए ।
And the people stood afar off, and Moses went into the darkness where God was.
22 परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्नुभयो, “तैँले इस्राएलीहरूलाई यसो भन्नूः मैले स्वर्गबाट तिमीहरूसित कुराकानी गरेको तिमीहरू आफैले देखेका छौ ।
And the Lord said to Moses, Thus shall you say to the house of Jacob, and you shall report it to the children of Israel, You have seen that I have spoken to you from heaven.
23 तिमीहरूले मबाहेक सुन वा चाँदीको कुनै पनि देवी-देवता नबनाउनू ।
You shall not make to yourselves gods of silver, and gods of gold you shall not make to yourselves.
24 मेरो निम्ति माटोको वेदी बनाउनू, र त्यहाँ तिमीहरूले होमबलि, मेलबलि, भेडा र गोरुहरू बलिदान गर्नू । मेरो नाउँको आदर गरिने हरेक ठाउँमा म तिमीहरूकहाँ आएर तिमीहरूलाई आशिष् दिनेछु ।
You shall make to me an altar of earth; and upon it you shall sacrifice your whole burnt offerings, and your peace-offerings, and your sheep and your calves in every place, where I shall record my name; and I will come to you and bless you.
25 तिमीहरूले मेरो निम्ति ढुङ्गाको वेदी बनायौ भने तिमीहरूले कुँदेको ढुङ्गाबाट नबनाउनू किनकि तिमीहरूले त्यसमा सामग्रीहरूको प्रयोग गर्दा तिमीहरूले यसलाई अशुद्ध तुल्याउनेछौ ।
And if you will make to me an altar of stones, you shall not build them hewn [stones]; for you have lifted up your tool upon them, and they are defiled.
26 तिमीहरूको नग्नता नदेखियोस् भनेर खुट्किलाहरू बनाएर मेरो वेदीमा नउक्लनू ।
You shall not go up to my altar by steps, that you may not uncover your nakedness upon it.
