< इजकिएल 14 >

1 इस्राएलका धर्म-गुरुमध्‍ये कोही मकहाँ आए र मेरो सामुन्‍ने बसे ।
And come in unto me do certain of the elders of Israel, and sit before me.
2 तब परमप्रभुको वचन यसो भनेर मकहाँ आयो,
And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying,
3 “ए मानिसको छोरो, यी मानिसहरूले आफ्‍ना मूर्तिहरूलाई आफ्‍ना हृदयमा राखेका छन्, र आफ्‍नो अधर्मका ठक्‍कर लाग्‍ने ढुङ्गा आफ्‍नै अनुहारका सामु राखेका छन्‌ । के तिनीहरूले मेरो बारेमा सोध्‍न पाउँछन् र?
'Son of man, these men have caused their idols to go up on their heart, and the stumbling-block of their iniquity they have put over-against their faces; am I inquired of at all by them?
4 यसकारण तिनीहरू यो कुरा घोषणा गर र तिनीहरूलाई यसो भन्, 'परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर यसो भन्‍नुहुन्‍छः इस्राएलका घरानाका हरेक मानिस जसले आफ्‍नो हृदयमा मूर्तिहरू राख्‍छन्, र आफ्‍नो अधर्मको ठक्‍कर लाग्‍ने ढुङ्गा आफ्‍नो अनुहारको सामुन्‍ने राख्‍छन्, र पनि अगमवक्ताकहाँ जान्‍छन्, म परमप्रभुले त्‍यसका मूर्तिहरूका संख्याअनुसार त्‍यसलाई जवाफ दिनेछु ।
'Therefore, speak with them, and thou hast said unto them: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Every one of the house of Israel who causeth his idols to go up unto his heart, and the stumbling-block of his iniquity setteth over-against his face, and hath gone in unto the prophet — I Jehovah have given an answer to him for this, for the abundance of his idols,
5 आफ्‍ना मूर्तिहरूको कारण आफ्‍ना हृदयहरू मबाट टाढा भएका इस्राएलका घरानालाई मैले फर्काउन सकौं भनेर म यसो गर्नेछु ।’
in order to catch the house of Israel by their heart, in that they have become estranged from off me by their idols — all of them.
6 यसकारण इस्राएलका घरानालाई यसो भन्, 'परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर यसो भन्‍नुहुन्‍छः पश्‍चात्ताप गर र आफ्‍ना मूर्तिहरूदेखि फर्क । सबै घिनलाग्‍दा कुराबाट आफ्ना मुख फर्काओ ।
'Therefore say unto the house of Israel: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Turn ye back, yea, turn ye back from your idols, and from all your abominations turn back your faces,
7 किनकि इस्राएलका घरानाको हरेक व्‍यक्‍ति र इस्राएलमा बस्‍ने हरेक विदेशी व्‍यक्‍ति जसले मलाई त्‍याग्‍छ, जसले आफ्‍ना मूर्तिहरू आफ्‍ना हृदयमा राख्‍छ र आफ्‍नो अधर्मको ठक्‍कर लाग्‍ने ढुङ्गा आफ्‍नै अनुहारको सामु राख्‍छ, र त्‍यसपछि मलाई खोज्‍न कुनै अगमवक्ताकहाँ जान्‍छ, त्‍यसलाई म परमप्रभु आफैले जवाफ दिनेछु ।
for every one of the house of Israel, and of the sojourners who doth sojourn in Israel, who is separated from after Me, and doth cause his idols to go up unto his heart, and the stumbling-block of his iniquity setteth over-against his face, and hath come in unto the prophet to inquire of him concerning Me, I, Jehovah, have answered him for Myself;
8 यसरी म आफ्‍नो मुख त्‍यस मानिसको विरुद्धमा लगाउनेछु, र त्‍यसलाई एउटा सङ्केत र उखानको पात्र बनाउनेछु, किनकि त्‍यसलाई म आफ्‍ना मानिसहरूका बिचदेखि बहिष्‍कार गर्नेछु र म नै परमप्रभु हुँ भनी तिमीहरूले जान्‍नेछौ ।
and I have set My face against that man, and made him for a sign, and for similes, and I have cut him off from the midst of My people, and ye have known that I [am] Jehovah.
9 कुनै एक जना अगमवक्ता छलमा पर्छ र यस्‍तो सन्देश भन्‍छ भने, म परमप्रभुले त्‍यस अगमवक्ता छलमा पार्नेछु । म आफ्‍ना हात त्‍यसको विरुद्धमा पसार्नेछु, र मेरो मानिस इस्राएलको बिचबाट त्‍यसलाई नाश गर्नेछु ।
'And the prophet, when he is enticed, and hath spoken a word — I, Jehovah, I have enticed that prophet, and have stretched out My hand against him, and have destroyed him from the midst of My people Israel.
10 तिनीहरूका आफ्‍ना अपराध तिनीहरूले बोक्‍नेछन् । अगमवक्ताको अपराधचाहिं र उसँग सल्‍लाह लिनेको अपराधजस्‍तै हुनेछ ।
And they have borne their iniquity: as the iniquity of the inquirer, so is the iniquity of the prophet;
11 यसकारण, इस्राएलका घरानाले मलाई पछ्‍याउनदेखि फेरि कहिल्‍यै बरालिनेछैनन्‌ न त आफ्‍ना सबै पापहरूले तिनीहरूले फेरि कहिल्‍यै आफैलाई अपवित्र पार्नेछन्‌ । तिनीहरू मेरा मानिसहरू हुनेछन्‌ र म तिनीहरूका परमेश्‍वर हुनेछु । यो परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वरको घोषणा हो ।’”
so that the house of Israel do not wander any more from after Me, nor are defiled any more with all their transgressions, and they have been to Me for a people, and I am to them for God — an affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.'
12 तब परमप्रभुको वचन यसो भनेर मकहाँ आयो,
And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying,
13 “ए मानिसको छोरो, कुनै देशले पाप गरेर मेरो विरुद्धमा पाप गर्छ, ताकि त्‍यसको विरुद्धमा आफ्‍नो हात पसारें र त्‍यसको खाद्य भण्‍डार म नाश गरें, र अनिकाल ल्‍याएँ र मानिस र पशु दुवैलाई नाश गरें भने,
'Son of man, the land — when it sinneth against Me to commit a trespass, and I have stretched out My hand against it, and broken for it the staff of bread, and sent into it famine, and cut off from it man and beast —
14 तब नोआ, दानिएल र अय्‍यूब, यी तिन जना मानिसहरू त्‍यहाँ भए भने पनि तिनीहरूले आफ्‍नो धार्मिकताद्वारा आफ्‍नै प्राण मात्र बचाउन सक्‍छन् । यो परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वरको घोषणा हो ।
and these three men have been in its midst, Noah, Daniel, and Job — they by their righteousness deliver their own soul — an affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.
15 मैले त्‍यस देशमा जङ्गली जनावरहरू पठाएँ, र तिनीहरूले त्‍यसलाई बाँझो तुल्‍याए र त्‍यो देश उजाड भयो, जहाँ जनावरहरूका कारणले कुनै मानिस गएन भने,
'If an evil beast I cause to pass through the land, and it hath bereaved, and it hath been a desolation, without any passing through because of the beast —
16 तब यी तिन जना मानिस त्‍यहाँ भए भने पनि, जस्‍तो म जीवित छु, परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर घोषणा गर्नुहुन्छ, तिनीहरूले आफ्‍नै छोराछोरीलाई पनि बचाउन सक्‍दैनन् । तिनीहरूका आफ्‍नो जीवन मात्र बाँच्‍नेछ, तर देशचाहिं उजाड हुनेथियो ।
these three men in its midst: I live — an affirmation of the Lord Jehovah — neither sons nor daughters do they deliver; they alone are delivered, and the land is a desolation.
17 अथवा मैले त्‍यस देशको विरुद्धमा तरवार ल्‍याएँ र यसो भनें, 'ए तरवार, देशभरि जा र त्‍यहाँबाट मानिसहरू र जनावरहरू दुवैलाई काट् ।'
'Or — a sword I bring in against that land, and I have said: Sword, thou dost pass over through the land, and I have cut off from it man and beast —
18 तब यी तिन जना मानिस त्‍यो दैशको बिचमा भए भने पनि, जस्‍तो म जीवित छु, परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर भन्‍नुहुन्‍छ, तिनीहरूले आफ्‍ना छोराछोरीलाई बचाउन सक्‍दैनन् । तिनीहरूका आफ्‍नो जीवन मात्र बाँच्‍नेछ ।
and these three men in its midst: I live — an affirmation of the Lord Jehovah — they deliver not sons and daughters, for they alone are delivered.
19 अथवा मैले यो देशको विरुद्धमा रूढी पठाएँ र रगत बगाएर त्‍यसका मानिसहरू र पशुहरूलाई मारेर मैले आफ्‍नो क्रोध पोखाएँ भने,
'Or — pestilence I send unto that land, and I have poured out My fury against it in blood, to cut off from it man and beast —
20 तब नोआ, दानिएल र अय्‍यूब त्‍यो देशमा भए भने पनि, जस्‍तो म जीवित छु, परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर भन्‍नुहुन्‍छ, तिनीहरूले आफ्‍ना छोराछोरीलाई बचाउन सक्‍दैनन् । तिनीहरूले आफ्‍नो धार्मिकताद्वारा आफ्‍नै प्राण मात्र बचाउन सक्‍छन् ।
and Noah, Daniel, and Job, in its midst: I live — an affirmation of the Lord Jehovah — neither son nor daughter do they deliver; they, by their righteousness, deliver their own soul.
21 किनकि परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर यसो भन्‍नुहुन्‍छः यरूशलेमको विरुद्धा मेरा चारवटा दण्‍डहरू— तरवार, अनिकाल, जङ्गली पशुहरू र रूढी पठाएर, त्‍यहाँका मानिस र पशुहरू दुवैलाई देशबाट नाश गरेर म धैरै खराब तुल्‍याउनेछु ।
'For thus said the Lord Jehovah: Although My four sore judgments — sword, and famine, and wild beast, and pestilence — I have sent unto Jerusalem, to cut off from it man and beast,
22 तापनि हेर्, त्‍यसमा कोही बाँकी हुनेछन्‌, र बचेकाहरू आफ्‍ना छोराहरू र छोरीहरूका साथमा बाहिर निस्‍केर जानेछन्‌ । हेर्, तिनीहरू बाहिर तिमीहरूकहाँ आउनेछन्, र तिमीहरूले तिनीहरूका चालहरू र कामहरू हेर्नेछौ, र मैले यरूशलेममा ल्‍याएका ती दण्‍ड र देशको विरुद्ध मैले ल्याएका सबै कुराबाट तिमीहरूलाई सान्‍त्‍वना हुनेछ ।
yet, lo, there hath been left in it an escape, who are brought forth, sons and daughters, lo, they are coming forth unto you, and ye have seen their way, and their doings, and have been comforted concerning the evil that I have brought in against Jerusalem, all that which I have brought in against it.
23 बाँचेकाहरूका चाल र कामहरू देखेर तिमीहरूले सान्‍त्‍वना पाउनेछौ, यसरी मैले त्‍यसको विरुद्धमा गरेका यी सबै कुरा, र ती मैले व्‍यर्थमा गरिनँ भनी तिमीहरूले जान्‍नेछौ । यो परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वरको घोषणा हो ।
And they have comforted you, for ye see their way and their doings, and ye have known that not for nought have I done all that which I have done in her — an affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.'
