प्रस्थान 32
1 जब मानिसहरूले मोशा पर्वतबाट आउन ढिलाइ गरेको देखे तिनीहरू हारूनको वरिपरि भेला भई तिनलाई भने, “हाम्रो अगिअगि जाने एउटा मूर्ति बनाऔँ । हामीलाई मिश्र देशबाट बाहिर ल्याउने मोशालाई के भयो हामी जान्दैनौँ ।”
And when the people saw that Moses was a long time coming down from the mountain, they all came to Aaron and said to him, Come, make us a god to go before us: as for this Moses, who took us up out of the land of Egypt, we have no idea what has become of him.
2 त्यसैले हारूनले तिनीहरूलाई भने, “तिमीहरूका पत्नीहरू र छोराछोरीहरूका कानमा भएका सुनका कुण्डलहरू फुकाली मकहाँ लेओ ।”
Then Aaron said to them, Take off the gold rings which are in the ears of your wives and your sons and your daughters, and give them to me.
3 सबै मानिसले तिनीहरूका कानमा लगाएका कुण्डलहरू फुकाली हारूनकहाँ ल्याए ।
And all the people took the gold rings from their ears and gave them to Aaron.
4 तिनले तिनीहरूबाट पाएको सुनलाई हतियारले खोपेर बाछाको एउटा मूर्ति बनाए । तब मानिसहरूले भने, “हे इस्राएल हो, मिश्रबाट तिमीहरूलाई बाहिर निकालेर ल्याउने देव यिनै हुन् ।”
And he took the gold from them and, hammering it with an instrument, he made it into the metal image of a young ox: and they said, This is your god, O Israel, who took you out of the land of Egypt.
5 हारूनले यो देखेपछि तिनले बाछाको सामु एउटा वेदी बनाए र यस्तो घोषणा गरे, “भोलि परमप्रभुको आदरको लागि एउटा चाड हुनेछ ।”
And when Aaron saw this, he made an altar before it, and made a public statement, saying, Tomorrow there will be a feast to the Lord.
6 भोलिपल्ट मानिसहरू सबेरै उठे र तिनीहरूले होमबलि र मेलबलि चढाए । तब तिनीहरू खान र पिउनलाई बसे अनि मोजमा डुब्न लागे ।
So early on the day after they got up and made burned offerings and peace-offerings; and took their seats at the feast, and then gave themselves to pleasure.
7 तब परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्नुभयो, “चाँडै तल ओर्ली, किनकि तैँले मिश्र देशबाट बाहिर ल्याएका मानिसहरूले आफैलाई भ्रष्ट पारिसकेका छन् ।
And the Lord said to Moses, Go down quickly; for your people, whom you took out of the land of Egypt, are turned to evil ways;
8 मैले आज्ञा गरेको मार्गबाट तिनीहरू चाँडै नै विचलित भएका छन् । तिनीहरूले आफ्ना लागि गाईको मूर्ति बनाएर यसको पूजा गरेका छन् र बलिदान चढाएका छन् । तिनीहरूले भनेका छन् 'हे इस्राएल हो, मिश्र देशबाट तिमीहरूलाई बाहिर ल्याउने देव यिनै हुन्' ।”
Even now they are turned away from the rule I gave them, and have made themselves a metal ox and given worship to it and offerings, saying, This is your god, O Israel, who took you up out of the land of Egypt.
9 तब परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्नुभयो, “मैले यो जातिलाई देखेको छु । हेर्, तिनीहरू हठी मानिसहरू हुन् ।
And the Lord said to Moses, I have been watching this people, and I see that they are a stiff-necked people.
10 अब मलाई रोक्ने कोसिस नगर् । मेरो क्रोध तिनीहरूको विरुद्धमा दन्कनेछ । त्यसैले म तिनीहरूलाई नष्ट गर्नेछु । तब म तँबाट नै एउटा ठुलो जाति बनाउनेछु ।”
Now do not get in my way, for my wrath is burning against them; I will send destruction on them, but of you I will make a great nation.
11 तर मोशाले परमप्रभु तिनका परमेश्वरलाई शान्त पार्न खोजे । तिनले भने, “हे परमप्रभु, आफ्नो ठुलो सामर्थ्य र शक्तिशाली हातले मिश्र देशबाट तपाईंले बाहिर ल्याउनुभएका यी मानिसहरूको विरुद्ध तपाईंको क्रोध किन दन्किने?
But Moses made prayer to God, saying, Lord, why is your wrath burning against your people whom you took out of the land of Egypt, with great power and with the strength of your hand?
12 मिश्रीहरूले किन यसो भन्ने, 'तिनीहरूलाई पर्वतमा लगेर मार्न र पृथ्वीको सतहबाट नष्ट गर्न उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई दुष्ट मनसाय लिएर बाहिर निकाल्नुभयो?' आफ्नो क्रोधलाई शान्त पार्नुहोस् र यो जातिलाई दण्ड दिनबाट मन बद्लनुहोस् ।
Why let the Egyptians say, He took them out to an evil fate, to put them to death on the mountains, cutting them off from the earth? Let your wrath be turned away from them, and send not this evil on your people.
13 तपाईंका दासहरू अब्राहाम, इसहाक र इस्राएललाई सम्झनुहोस् जसलाई तपाईंले आफ्नै खातिर यसो भनेर शपथ खानुभएको थियो, 'म तिमीहरूका सन्तानहरूलाई आकाशको ताराजत्तिकै बढाउनेछु र मैले तिमीहरूका सन्तानहरूलाई दिने भनेका यी सबै देश दिनेछु । तिनीहरूले सदाको लागि यसको अधिकार गर्नेछन्' ।”
Have in mind Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, your servants, to whom you gave your oath, saying, I will make your seed like the stars of heaven in number, and all this land will I give to your seed, as I said, to be their heritage for ever.
14 तब आफ्नो जातिलाई हानि गर्नदेखि परमप्रभुले आफ्नो मन बद्लनुभयो ।
So the Lord let himself be turned from his purpose of sending punishment on his people.
15 तब मोशा फर्केर आफ्ना हातमा करारका दुईवटा शिला-पाटी लिएर पर्वतबाट तल ओर्ले । शिला-पाटीहरूका अगाडि र पछाडि दुवैपट्टि लेखिएका थिए ।
Then Moses came down the mountain with the two stones of the law in his hand; the stones had writing on their two sides, on the front and on the back.
16 ती शिला-पाटीहरू परमेश्वरका आफ्नै काम थिए, र त्यो उहाँले नै खोपेर लेख्नुभएको थियो ।
The stones were the work of God, and the writing was the writing of God, cut on the stones.
17 यहोशूले मानिसहरू चिच्च्याइरहेको आवाज सुनेपछि तिनले मोशालाई भने, “छाउनीमा त लडाइँको आवाज पो सुनिँदै छ त ।”
Now when the noise and the voices of the people came to the ears of Joshua, he said to Moses, There is a noise of war in the tents.
18 तर मोशाले भने, “यो विजेताको आवाज होइन, न त पराजितहरूको आवाज हो, तर म त गीत गाइरहेको आवाज सुन्दै छु ।”
And Moses said, It is not the voice of men who are overcoming in the fight, or the cry of those who have been overcome; it is the sound of songs which comes to my ear.
19 जब मोशा छाउनी नजिक आइपुगे तिनले बाछो र मानिसहरू नाचिरहेका देखे । तिनी बेसरी रिसाए । तिनले आफ्ना हातबाट ती शिला-पाटीहरू फालिदिए, पर्वतको फेदीमा नै फुटाइदिए ।
And when he came near the tents he saw the image of the ox, and the people dancing; and in his wrath Moses let the stones go from his hands, and they were broken at the foot of the mountain.
20 तिनले मानिसहरूले बनाएका त्यस बाछोलाई लिएर जलाइदिए अनि धुलोपिठो बनाएर पानीमा छरिदिए, अनि तिनले इस्राएलका मानिसहरूलाई त्यो पिउन लगाए ।
And he took the ox which they had made, burning it in the fire and crushing it to powder, and he put it in the water and made the children of Israel take a drink of it.
21 तब मोशाले हारूनलाई भने, “यी मानिसहरूले तपाईंलाई के गरे जसले गर्दा तपाईंले तिनीहरूमाथि यति ठुलो पाप ल्याउनुभयो?”
And Moses said to Aaron, What did the people do to you that you let this great sin come on them?
22 हारूनले भने, “मेरा मालिक, ममाथि हजुरको क्रोध नदन्कियोस् । तपाईं त यी मानिसहरूलाई जान्नुहुन्छ कि तिनीहरू खराबी गर्न उद्यत छन् ।
And Aaron said, Let not my lord be angry; you have seen how the purposes of this people are evil.
23 तिनीहरूले मलाई भने, 'हाम्रो अगिअगि जाने एउटा देव बनाऊ । हामीलाई मिश्र देशबाट बाहिर निकालेर ल्याउने मोशालाई के भयो हामी जान्दैनौँ ।'
For they said to me, Make us a god to go before us: as for this Moses, who took us up out of the land of Egypt, we have no idea what has come to him.
24 तब मैले तिनीहरूलाई भनेँ, 'जो-जोसँग सुन छ, तिनीहरूले फुकालून् ।' तिनीहरूले मलाई सुन दिए र मैले त्यसलाई आगोमा फाल्दा यही बाछो बनेर आयो ।”
Then I said to them, Whoever has any gold, let him take it off; so they gave it to me, and I put it in the fire, and this image of an ox came out.
25 मानिसहरू छाडा भइसकेका थिए भनी मोशाले देखे (किनकि हारूनले तिनीहरूका शत्रुहरूका सामु हाँसोको पात्र हुन दिएर तिनीहरूलाई अनियन्त्रित हुन छाडिदिएका थिए) ।
And Moses saw that the people were out of control, for Aaron had let them loose to their shame before their haters:
26 तब मोशा छाउनीको प्रवेशद्वारमा खडा भएर भने, “जो-जो परमप्रभुपट्टि छन्, तिनीहरू मकहाँ आओ ।” सबै लेवी तिनको वरिपरि भेला भए ।
Then Moses took his place at the way into the tents, and said, Whoever is on the Lord's side, let him come to me. And all the sons of Levi came together to him.
27 तिनले तिनीहरूलाई भने, “परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्वर यसो भन्नुहुन्छ, 'हरेकले आ-आफ्नो तरवार भिरेर छाउनीको एक छेउदेखि अर्को छेउसम्म ढोका-ढोकासम्म गएर हरेकले आफ्ना भाइ, आफ्ना मित्र र छिमेकीलाई मार' ।”
And he said to them, This is the word of the Lord, the God of Israel: Let every man take his sword at his side, and go from one end of the tents to the other, putting to death his brother and his friend and his neighbour.
28 मोशाले आज्ञा गरेमुताबिक लेवीहरूले गरे । त्यस दिन करिब तिन हजार मानिस मरे ।
And the sons of Levi did as Moses said; and about three thousand of the people were put to death that day.
29 मोशाले लेवीहरूलाई भने, “आज तिमीहरू परमप्रभुको सेवामा राखिएका छौ किनकि आज परमप्रभुले तिमीहरूलाई आशिष् देऊन् भनेर तिमीहरू हरेकले आ-आफ्ना छोरा र भाइको विरुद्धमा कारबाही गरेका छौ ।”
And Moses said, You have made yourselves priests to the Lord this day; for every one of you has made the offering of his son and his brother; the blessing of the Lord is on you this day.
30 भोलिपल्ट मोशाले मानिसहरूलाई भने, “तिमीहरूले भयङ्कर ठुलो पाप गरेका छौ । अब म परमप्रभुकहाँ उक्लेर जानेछु । सायद मैले तिमीहरूको पापको लागि प्रायश्चित्त गर्न सक्छु कि ।”
And on the day after, Moses said to the people, Great has been your sin: but I will go up to the Lord, and see if I may get forgiveness for your sin.
31 मोशा परमप्रभुकहाँ फर्केर आए र भने, “हाय! यी मानिसहरूले ठुलो पाप गरेका छन् र तिनीहरूले सुनको मूर्ति बनाएका छन् ।
Then Moses went back to the Lord and said, This people has done a great sin, making themselves a god of gold;
32 तर अब तिनीहरूका पाप क्षमा गरिदिनुहोस् । क्षमा गर्नुहुन्न भनेता तपाईंले लेख्नुभएको पुस्तकबाट मेरो नाउँ मेटिदिनुहोस् ।”
But now, if you will give them forgiveness — but if not, let my name be taken out of your book.
33 परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्नुभयो, “जसले मेरो विरुद्धमा पाप गरेको छ, म मेरो पुस्तकबाट त्यसकै नाउँ मेटिदिनेछु ।
And the Lord said to Moses, Whoever has done evil against me will be taken out of my book.
34 अब, गएर मैले तँलाई भनेको स्थानमा यी मानिसहरूलाई अगुवाइ गरेर लैजा । हेर्, मेरा दूत तेरो अगिअगि जानेछन् । तर त्यस दिन तिनीहरूका पापका लागि म तिनीहरूलाई दण्ड दिनेछु ।”
But now, go, take the people into that place of which I have given you word; see, my angel will go before you: but when the time of my judging has come, I will send punishment on them for their sin.
35 हारूनले बनाएको बाछोको कारण परमप्रभुले मानिसहरूमाथि विपत्ति ल्याउनुभयो ।
And the Lord sent punishment on the people because they gave worship to the ox which Aaron made.
