1 उहाँले मलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “ए मानिसको छोरो, आफ्‍ना गोडामा खडा हो । तब म तँसित कुरा गर्नेछु ।”
This was the vision of the likeness of the glory of the Lord. And I saw, and I fell on my face, and I heard the voice of someone speaking. And he said to me: “Son of man, stand on your feet, and I will speak with you.”
2 तब उहाँ मसित बोल्‍नुहुँदा, तब मभित्र आत्‍मा प्रवेश गर्नुभयो र मलाई आफ्‍ना खुट्टामा खडा गराउनुभयो, र उहाँले मसित कुरा बोलिरहनुभएको मैले सुनें ।
And after this was spoken to me, the Spirit entered into me, and he set me on my feet. And I heard him speaking 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and saying: “Son of man, I am sending you to the sons of Israel, to an apostate nation, which has withdrawn from me. They and their fathers have betrayed my covenant, even to this day.
4 तिनका सन्तानहरूका हठी अनुहारहरू र कठोर हृदयहरू छन् । तँलाई म तिनीहरूकहाँ पठाउँदैछु, र तैंले तिनीहरूलाई भन्‍नेछस्, 'परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर यसो भन्‍नुहुन्‍छ ।'
And those to whom I am sending you are sons with a hard face and an unyielding heart. And you shall say to them: ‘Thus says the Lord God.’
5 तिनीहरूले सुन्‍नेछन् वा सुन्‍नेछैनन् । तिनीहरू विद्रोही घराना हुन्, तर तिनीहरूले कमसेकम आफ्‍ना बिचमा एक जना अगमवक्ता छन्‌ भनी जान्‍नेछन्‌ ।
Perhaps it may be that they will hear, and perhaps they may be quieted. For they are a provoking house. And they shall know that there has been a prophet in their midst.
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 ।
But as for you, son of man, you should not fear them, and you should not dread their words. For you are among unbelievers and subversives, and you are living with scorpions. You should not fear their words, and you should not dread their faces. For they are a provoking house.
7 तर तिनीहरूले सुनुन् वा नसुनुन् तिनीहरूलाई मेरो वचन तैंले बोल्‍नेछस्, किनकि तिनीहरू ज्‍यादै विद्रोही छन् ।
Therefore, you shall speak my words to them, so that perhaps they may hear and be quieted. For they are provoking.
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 as for you, son of man, listen to all that I say to you. And do not choose to be provoking, as that house is a provoker. Open your mouth, and eat whatever I give to you.”
9 तब मैले हेरें, र एउटा हात मतिर पसारिएको थियो । त्‍यसमा एउटा लेखिएको मुट्ठो थियो ।
And I looked, and behold: a hand was put forth toward me; there was a scroll rolled up 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 out before me, and there was writing on the inside and on the outside. And there were written in it lamentations, and verses, and woes.
