1 उहाँले मलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “ए मानिसको छोरो, आफ्‍ना गोडामा खडा हो । तब म तँसित कुरा गर्नेछु ।”
And he said to me, Son of man, stand upon thy feet, and I will speak with thee.
2 तब उहाँ मसित बोल्‍नुहुँदा, तब मभित्र आत्‍मा प्रवेश गर्नुभयो र मलाई आफ्‍ना खुट्टामा खडा गराउनुभयो, र उहाँले मसित कुरा बोलिरहनुभएको मैले सुनें ।
And the Spirit entered into me when he spoke to me, and set me upon my feet. And I heard him who spoke to me.
3 उहाँले मलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “ए मानिसको छोरो, तँलाई म इस्राएलका मानिसहरूकहाँ पठाउँदैछु, एउटा विद्रोही जातिकहाँ, जसले मेरो विरुद्धमा विद्रोह गरेको छ—तिनीहरू र तिनीहरूका पुर्खाहरू दुवैले आजको दिनसम्‍मै मेरो विरुद्धमा पाप गरेका छन् ।
And he said to me, Son of man, I send thee to the sons of Israel, to nations that are rebellious, which have rebelled against me. They and their fathers have transgressed against me even to this very day.
4 तिनका सन्तानहरूका हठी अनुहारहरू र कठोर हृदयहरू छन् । तँलाई म तिनीहरूकहाँ पठाउँदैछु, र तैंले तिनीहरूलाई भन्‍नेछस्, 'परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर यसो भन्‍नुहुन्‍छ ।'
And the sons are impudent and stiff hearted. I send thee to them, and thou shall say to them, Thus says the lord Jehovah.
5 तिनीहरूले सुन्‍नेछन् वा सुन्‍नेछैनन् । तिनीहरू विद्रोही घराना हुन्, तर तिनीहरूले कमसेकम आफ्‍ना बिचमा एक जना अगमवक्ता छन्‌ भनी जान्‍नेछन्‌ ।
And they, whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear (for they are a rebellious house), yet shall know that there has been a prophet among them.
6 ए मानिसको छोरो, तँचाहिं तिनीहरूदेखि अथवा तिनीहरूका कुरादेखि नडरा । तँ सिउँडी र काँढा भए, अथवा तँ बिच्‍छीहरूका बिचमा बसे तापनि तँ नडरा । तिनीहरूका वचनहरूदेखि नडरा वा तिनीहरूका अनुहारहरूदेखि भयभीत नहो, किनकि तिनीहरू विद्रोही घराना हुन्‌ ।
And thou, son of man, be not afraid of them, nor be afraid of their words, though briers and thorns are with thee, and thou dwell among scorpions. Be not afraid of their words, nor be dismayed at their looks, though they are a rebellious house.
7 तर तिनीहरूले सुनुन् वा नसुनुन् तिनीहरूलाई मेरो वचन तैंले बोल्‍नेछस्, किनकि तिनीहरू ज्‍यादै विद्रोही छन् ।
And thou shall speak my words to them, whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear, for they are most rebellious.
8 तर ए मानिसको छोरो, मैले तँलाई भनिरहेको कुरा सुन् । त्‍यो विद्रोही घरानाझैं तँ विद्रोही नहो । तेरो मुख खोल्, र मैले तँलाई जे दिन गइरहेको छु त्यो खा!”
But thou, son of man, hear what I say to thee. Be not thou rebellious like that rebellious house. Open thy mouth, and eat that which I give thee.
9 तब मैले हेरें, र एउटा हात मतिर पसारिएको थियो । त्‍यसमा एउटा लेखिएको मुट्ठो थियो ।
And when I looked, behold, a hand was put forth to me, and, lo, a roll of a book was in it,
10 उहाँले त्यसलाई मेरै सामु फिंजाउनुभयो । त्‍यसको अगाडि र पछाडि दुवैतिर लेखिएको थियो, र त्‍यसमा शोक, विलाप र विपत्तिका कुरा लेखिएका थिए ।
And he spread it before me, and it was written inside and outside. And there were written in it lamentations and mourning and woe.
