इजकिएल 11

1 तब आत्‍माले मलाई माथि उठाउनुभयो र परमप्रभुका भवनको पूर्वतिरको ढोकामा लानुभयो, र त्‍यहाँ ढोकाको मुखैमा पच्‍चीस जना मानिस थिए । तिनीहरूका माझमा मैले मानिसहरूका अगुवाहरू, अज्‍जूरका छोरा याजन्‍याह र बनायाहका छोरा पलत्‍याहलाई देखें ।

[Then God’s] Spirit lifted me up and took me to the gate on the east side of the temple area. There at the gate were 25 men. Among them I saw Jaazaniah the son of Azzur, and Pelatiah the son of Benaiah, who were leaders of the people.

2 परमेश्‍वरले मलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “ए मानिसको छोरो, यस सहरमा दुष्‍ट्याइँ गर्न षड्‌यन्‍त्र रच्ने र दुष्‍ट योजना बनाउने मानिसहरू यी नै हुन् ।

Yahweh said to me, “You human, these are the [new leaders in Jerusalem] who are planning to do evil things and who are giving wicked advice [to people] in this city.

3 तिनीहरू भन्‍दैछन्, 'घरहरू निर्माण गर्ने समय अहिले होइन । यो सहर भाँडो हो र हामीहरू मासु हौं ।’

They say, ‘[Everything will go well for us, so] it will surely soon be [RHQ] time to build houses. [We are like] [MET] fine/choice pieces of meat that are carefully stored in covered pots, and we are protected [from the bad things that will happen to others].’

4 यसैकारण तिनीहरूका विरुद्धमा अगमवाणी गर । ए मानिसको छोरो, अगमवाणी गर ।”

So, you human, prophesy [the terrible things that will happen to] them.”

5 तब परमप्रभुका आत्‍मा ममा आउनुभयो, र उहाँले मलाई यसो भन्‍न लाउनुभयोः “परमप्रभु यसो भन्‍नुहुन्‍छः हे इस्राएलका घराना, तिमीहरू यसो भन्दछौ । किनकि तिमीहरूका मनमा के आउँछ भन्‍ने मलाई थाहा छ ।

Then the Spirit of Yahweh came upon me and told me to [to the people], “This is what Yahweh says: You Israeli people [MTY] are saying those things, but I know what you are thinking.

6 तिमीहरूले यस सहरमा मारेका मानिसहरूका सङ्ख्‍यालाई वद्धि गरेका छौ, र यसका गल्‍लीहरू तिनीहरूले भरेका छौ ।

You have killed many people in this city and filled the streets with their corpses.

7 यसकारण परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर यसो भन्‍नुहुन्‍छः तिमीहरूले मारेका मानिसहरू जसका लाशहरू तिमीहरूले यरूशलेमको बिचमा छाडेका छौ, ती मासु हुन्, र यो सहरचाहिं भाँडो हो । तर तिमीहरूचाहिं यस सहरका बिचबाट बाहिर निकालिनेछौ ।

Therefore this is what Yahweh the Lord says: The corpses of the people whom you have killed here are [like] the meat [MET], and this city is [like] the pot [MET], but I will expel you from this city.

8 तिमीहरू तरवारदेखि डराएका छौ । यसैले तिमीहरूका विरुद्धमा म तरवार ल्‍याउँदैछु । यो परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वरको घोषणा हो ।

You are afraid [being killed by enemies’] swords, and that is what I will cause to happen to you.

9 म तिमीहरूलाई सहरको बिचबाट बाहिर निकाल्‍नेछु, र तिमीहरूलाई विदेशीहरूका हातमा सुम्‍पिदिनेछु, किनकि तिमीहरूका विरुद्धमा म न्याय ल्याउनेछु ।

I will expel you from this city and enable foreigners to capture you and punish you.

10 तिमीहरू तरवारले ढल्‍नेछौ । इस्राएलको सिमाना भित्र म तिमीहरूको न्‍याय गर्नेछु । यसरी म नै परमप्रभु हुँ भनी तिमीहरूले जान्‍नेछौ ।

They will kill [EUP] you with their swords; you will be punished [right here] in Israel. Then people will realize that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].

11 यो सहर तिमीहरूका लागि पकाउने भाँडो हुनेछैन, न त त्‍यसको बिचमा तिमीहरू मासु नै हुनेछौ । तिमीहरूको न्‍याय म इस्राएलको सिमाना भित्र नै गर्नेछु ।

This city will not be [a place were you will be protected like] [MET] meat in a covered pot. I will punish you wherever you are in Israel.

12 तब म नै परमप्रभु हुँ भनी तिमीहरूले जान्‍नेछौ, जसका विधिहरूमा तिमीहरू हिंडेका, र जसका नियमहरू तिमीहरूले पालन गरेका छैनौ । बरु, तिमीहरूका वरिपरि भएका जातिहरूका विधिहरू तिमीहरू पालन गरेका छौ ।”

And you will know that I, Yahweh, [have predicted that would happen], because you have not obeyed my commands and decrees; instead, you have imitated [wicked] behavior [of the people] of the nearby nations.”

13 जब मैले अगमवाणी गरिरहेको थिएँ, तब बनायाहका छोरा पलत्‍याह मरे । तब म घोप्‍टो परें र चर्को सोरमा कराएँ र यसो भनें, “हाय, परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर! के इस्राएलका बचेकाहरूलाई तपाईंले सम्‍पूर्ण रूपले सर्वनाश गर्नुहुन्‍छ?”

While I was prophesying that, Pelatiah the son of Benaiah [suddenly] died. Then I prostrated myself on the ground and cried out loudly, “Yahweh my Lord, are you going [similarly] get rid of all the Israeli people who are still alive?”

14 त्‍यसपछि परमप्रभुको वचन यसो भनेर मकहाँ आयो,

Then Yahweh gave me this message:

15 “ए मानिसको छोरो, तेरा दाजुभाइ! तेरा दाजुभाइ! जो तेरा कुलका र इस्राएलका सारा घराना! यी सबै ती नै हुन्, जसका विषयमा यरूशलेमका बासिन्‍दाहरूले यसो भनेका थिए, 'यिनीहरू परमप्रभुदेखि टाढा भएका छन्‌ । यो देश हामीलाई अधिकार गर्न दिइएको थियो ।’

“You human, the people who are still in Jerusalem are talking about you and your own relatives and about all the other people who were (exiled/forced to go to other countries), saying, ‘They [in Babylonia], far from Yahweh. They have left their [here in Israel, so] their property now belongs to us!’”

16 यसकारण यसो भन्, 'परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर यसो भन्‍नुहुन्‍छः मैले तिनीहरूलाई जातिहरूका बिचमा टाढा पठाए पनि र तिनीहरूलाई देश-देशमा तितरबितर पारे पनि, तिनीहरू गएका देशमा केही समयको निम्‍ति म तिनीहरूको पवित्रस्‍थान भएको छु ।’

So tell [them], “This is what Yahweh the Lord says: Although I caused them to be taken far [from Israel] and scattered them among other nations, for a short time I will (be like a refuge for/protect) them in the countries to which they have been taken.”

17 यसकारण भन्, 'परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर यसो भन्‍नुहुन्‍छः तिमीहरूलाई म मानिसहरूबाट जम्‍मा गर्नेछु, र तिमीहरू तितरबितर भएका देशहरूबाट म तिमीहरूलाई जम्‍मा गर्नेछु र म तिमीहरूलाई इस्राएलको देश दिनेछु ।’

So also tell them, “This is what Yahweh the Lord says: [Some day] I will gather you from the [to which you have been taken] and bring you back to Israel, and you will live in your country/land [again].

18 तब तिनीहरू त्‍यहाँ जानेछन्‌ र त्‍यो ठाउँबाट हरेक घृणित र घिनलाग्‍दा कुराहरू हटाउनेछन्‌ ।

When you return to your country, you will get rid of all the vile statues of gods and detestable idols.

19 म तिनीहरूलाई एउटै हृदय दिनेछु, र तिनीहरूमा म एउटा नयाँ आत्‍मा हालिदिनेछु । म तिनीहरूबाट ढुङ्गाको हृदय निकालेर मासुको हृदय दिनेछु,

I will put a new way of thinking [IDM] within you. I will cause you to no longer be stubborn [IDM], and I will enable you to obey me completely [IDM].

20 ताकि तिनीहरू मेरा विधिहरूमा चल्‍नेछन्, र तिनीहरूले मेरा नियमहरू पालन गर्नेछन् र तीअनुसार गर्नेछन् । तब तिनीहरू मेरा मानिसहरू हुनेछन्, र म तिनीहरूका परमेश्‍वर हुनेछु ।

When I do that, you will carefully obey all my laws [DOU]. You will be my people, and I will be your God.

21 तर आफ्‍ना घृणित प्रतिमाहरू र घिनलाग्‍दा मूर्तिहरूलाई भक्ति गर्ने हृदय भएकाहरूलाई चाहिं म तिनीहरूका कामहरूको प्रतिफल तिनीहरूकै शिरमा खन्‍याइदिनेछु, यो परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वरको घोषणा हो ।”

But as for those who are devoted [worshiping] their vile statues and detestable idols, I will punish them as they deserve for the evil things that they have done.’”

22 ती करूबहरूले आफ्‍ना पखेटा र आफ्‍ना छेउमा भएका पाङ्‌ग्राहरू माथि उचाले र इस्राएलका परमेश्‍वरको महिमा तिनीहरूका माथि थियो ।

Then the winged creatures, with their wheels beside them, spread their [and flew up into the air], and the dazzling brightness of Yahweh was above them.

23 तब सहरको बिचबाट परमप्रभुको महिमा माथि गयो, र सहरको पूर्वपट्टिको पर्वतमा अडियो ।

That light went up away from the city and stopped above the mountain to the east of the city.

24 आत्‍माले मलाई माथि उठाउनुभयो र परमेश्‍वरका आत्‍माद्वारा दिइएको दर्शनमा कल्‍दीमा निर्वासित भएकाहरूकहाँ ल्‍याउनुभयो । तब मैले देखेको त्‍यो दर्शन मबाट मास्‍तिर गइहाल्‍यो ।

In the vision [that I had been seeing, God’s] Spirit lifted me up and brought me [back] to the (exiles in/people who had been forced to go to) Babylonia. Then the vision ended,

25 तब परमप्रभुले मलाई देखाउनुभएका सबै कुरा मैले निर्वासित भएकाहरूकहाँ घोषणा गरिदिएँ ।

and I told the exiles everything that Yahweh had shown [in the vision].
