1 उहाँले मलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “ए मानिसको छोरो, आफ्‍ना गोडामा खडा हो । तब म तँसित कुरा गर्नेछु ।”
This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the Lord. And I saw and fell upon my face, and heard the voice of one speaking: and he said to me, Son of man, stand upon your feet, and I will speak to 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 the Spirit came upon me, and took me up, and raised me, and 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 he said to me, Son of Man, I send you forth to the house of Israel, them that provoke me; who have provoked me, they and their fathers 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 you shall say to them, Thus says the Lord.
5 तिनीहरूले सुन्‍नेछन् वा सुन्‍नेछैनन् । तिनीहरू विद्रोही घराना हुन्, तर तिनीहरूले कमसेकम आफ्‍ना बिचमा एक जना अगमवक्ता छन्‌ भनी जान्‍नेछन्‌ ।
Whether then indeed they shall hear or fear, (for it is a provoking house, ) yet they shall know that you are a prophet in the midst of 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 you, son of man, fear them not, nor be dismayed at their face; (for they will madden and will rise up against you round about, and you dwell in the midst of scorpions): be not afraid of their words, nor be dismayed at their countenance, for it is a provoking house.
7 तर तिनीहरूले सुनुन् वा नसुनुन् तिनीहरूलाई मेरो वचन तैंले बोल्‍नेछस्, किनकि तिनीहरू ज्‍यादै विद्रोही छन् ।
And you shall speak my words to them, whether they will hear or fear: for it is a provoking house.
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!”
And you, son of man, hear him that speaks to you; be not you provoking, as the provoking house: open your mouth, and eat what I give you.
9 तब मैले हेरें, र एउटा हात मतिर पसारिएको थियो । त्‍यसमा एउटा लेखिएको मुट्ठो थियो ।
And I looked, and behold, a hand stretched out to me, and in it a volume of a book.
10 उहाँले त्यसलाई मेरै सामु फिंजाउनुभयो । त्‍यसको अगाडि र पछाडि दुवैतिर लेखिएको थियो, र त्‍यसमा शोक, विलाप र विपत्तिका कुरा लेखिएका थिए ।
And he unrolled it before me: and in it the front and the back were written [upon]: and there was written [in it] Lamentation, and mournful song, and woe.
