1 सातौं वर्षको पाँचौं महिनाको दशौं दिनमा इस्राएलका धर्म-गुरुहरू परमप्रभुसित सोधपूछ गर्न आए र मेरो सामु बसे ।
And it came to pass in the seventh year, in the fifth month, on the tenth day of the month, that certain men of the elders of Israel came to inquire of the Lord, and they sat down before me.
2 तब परमप्रभुको वचन यस भनेर मकहाँ आयो,
And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,
3 “ए मानिसको छोरो, इस्राएलका धर्म-गुरुहरूलाई घोषणा गर्‌ र तिनीहरूलाई यसो भन्, ‘परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर यसो भन्‍नुहुन्‍छः के तिमीहरू मसित सोधपूछ गर्न आएका छौ? जस्‍तो म जीवित छु, तिमीहरूले मलाई सोधपूछ गर्नेछैनौ— यो परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वरको घोषणा हो ।'
Son of man, speak unto the elders of Israel, and say unto them, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Is it to inquire of me that ye are coming? as I live, I will not let myself be inquired of by you, saith the Lord Eternal.
4 के तँ तिनीहरूको न्‍याय गर्नेछस्? ए मानिसको छोरो, के तँ तिनीहरूको न्‍याय गर्नेछस्‌? तिनीहरूका आफ्‍ना पुर्खाहरूका घिनलाग्‍दा कामको बारेमा तिनीहरूलाई जानकारी दे ।
Wilt thou take them to task, wilt thou take them to task, son of man? then cause them to know the abominations of their fathers;
5 तिनीहरूलाई भन्‌, 'परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर यसो भन्‍नुहुन्‍छः जुन दिन मैले इस्राएललाई छानें, र याकूबको घरानासित शपथ खानलाई मैले हात उचाले र मैले आफूलाई मिश्रदेशमा तिनीहरूका बिचमा प्रकट गरें । जति बेला तिनीहरूसित शपथ खान मैले आफ्‍नो हात उचालें । मैले भनें, “म परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्‍वर हुँ”—
And say unto them, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, On the day when I made choice of Israel, I lifted up my hand unto the seed of the house of Jacob, and I made myself known unto them in the land of Egypt: and I lifted up my hand unto them, saying, I am the Lord your God.
6 त्‍यस दिन मैले तिनीहरूसित यो शपथ खाएँ, कि म तिनीहरूलाई मिश्रदेशबाट बाहिर निकालेर मैले तिनीहरूका निम्‍ति मैले होसियारीसाथ छानेको देशमा ल्‍याउनेछु । त्‍यहाँ दूध र मह बग्‍दैथियो । यो सबै देशहरूभन्‍दा बढी सुन्‍दर गहना थियो ।
On the same day I lifted up my hand unto them, to bring them forth from the land of Egypt into a land that I had selected for them, flowing with milk and honey, which is an ornament among all the countries.
7 मैले तिनीहरूलाई भनें, “हरेक मानिसले आफ्‍ना दृष्‍टिबाट घिनलाग्‍दा कुराहरू र मिश्रदेशका मूर्तिहरू हटाओस् । आफूलाई अशुद्ध नपार । म परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्‍वर हुँ ।”
And I said unto them, Cast ye away every one of the abominations of his eyes, and on the idols of Egypt shall ye not defile yourselves: I am the Lord your God.
8 तर तिनीहरूले मेरो विरुद्धमा विद्रोह गरे र मेरो कुरा सुन्‍न इच्छुक भएनन् । हरेक मानिसले आफ्‍ना दृष्‍टिबाट ती घिनलाग्‍दा कुराहरूलाई फालेनन् न त तिनीहरूले मिश्रदेशका मूर्तिहरूलाई नै त्‍यागे । यसैले मिश्रदेशको बिचमा तिनीहरूका माझमा मेरो क्रोध शान्त पार्नको निम्ति तिनीहरूमाथि मेरो रिस पोख्‍ने निश्‍चय मैले गरें ।
But they rebelled against me, and they would not hearken unto me; they did not cast away every one the abominations of their eyes, and the idols of Egypt did they not forsake: and I thought then to pour out my fury over them, to let out all my anger against them in the midst of the land of Egypt.
9 आफ्‍नो नाउँको खातिर मैले यो काम गरें, यसरी तिनीहरू बसोबास गरेका जातिहरूका दृष्‍टिमा मेरो नाउँ अपवित्र नहोस् । तिनीहरूलाई मिश्रदेशबाट बाहिर निकालेर ल्‍याएर मैले आफूलाई तिनीहरूका अघि प्रकट गरें ।
But I acted for the sake of my name, so as not to profane it before the eyes of the nations, in the midst of whom they were; because I had made myself known unto them before their eyes, to bring them forth out of the land of Egypt.
10 यसैले मैले तिनीहरूलाई मिश्रदेशबाट बाहिर निकालें र तिनीहरूलाई उजाड-स्‍थान ल्‍याएँ ।
I therefore caused them to go forth out of the land of Egypt, and brought them into the wilderness.
11 तब मैले तिनीहरूलाई मेरा विधिहरू दिएँ र मेरा नियमहरू तिनीहरूलाई प्रकट गरें । मानिसले ती पालन गर्‍यो भने त्‍यसद्वारा ऊ बाँच्‍नेछ ।
And I gave them my statutes, and my ordinances made I known to them, which a man is to do, that he may live through them.
12 म परमप्रभु नै हुँ जसले तिनीहरूलाई पवित्र पार्छु भनी तिनीहरूले जानून्‌ भनेर तिनीहरू र मेरो बिचमा चिन्‍हको रूपमा मैले तिनीहरूलाई शबाथदिनहरू पनि दिएँ ।
And also my sabbaths gave I unto them, to be as a sign between me and between them, that they might know that I am the Lord who sanctify them.
13 तर इस्राएल घरानाले उजाड-स्‍थान मेरो विरुद्धमा विद्रोह गरे । तिनीहरू मेरो विधिहरूमा चलेनन् । बरु, तिनीहरूले मेरा नियमहरूलाई इन्‍कार गरे । मानिसले ती पालन गर्‍यो भने त्‍यसद्वारा ऊ बाँच्‍नेछ । तिनीहरूले मेरा शबाथहरूलाई एकदमै बिटुलो पारे । यसैले मैले भनें, म तिनीहरूको नाश गर्नलाई यही उजाड-स्‍थान तिनीहरूमाथि आफ्‍नो क्रोध पोखाउनेछु ।
But the house of Israel rebelled against me in the wilderness; in my statutes they walked not, and my ordinances they despised, which a man is to do, that he may live through them; and my sabbaths they greatly profaned: and I then thought to pour out my fury over them in the wilderness, to make an end of them.
14 तर जुन जातिहरूका दृष्‍टिमा मैले तिनीहरूलाई मिश्रदेशबाट बाहिर निकालेर ल्‍याएँ, तिनीहरूका दृष्‍टिमा मेरो नाउँ अपवित्र नहोस्‌ भनेर मेरो नाउँको खातिर मैले काम गरें ।
But I acted for the sake of my name, so as not to profane it before the eyes of the nations, before whose eyes I had brought them forth.
15 यसैले मैले तिनीहरूलाई दिन लागेको देशमा म तिनीहरूलाई लानेछैनँ भनेर तिनीहरूसित उजाड-स्‍थान एउटा शपथ खानलाई म आफैले पनि आफ्‍नो हात उठाएँ । त्‍यो देश सबै देशहरूभन्‍दा सुन्‍दर गहनाको दूध र मह बग्‍ने देश हो ।
Yet did I also lift up my hand unto them in the wilderness, that I would not bring them into the land which I had given [them], flowing with milk and honey, which is an ornament among all the countries.
16 मैले यो शपथ खाएँ किनभने तिनीहरूले मेरा नियमहरूलाई इन्‍कार गरे र मेरा विधिहरूमा हिंडेनन्, र तिनीहरूले मेरा शबाथहरूलाई बिटुलो पारे, किनकि तिनीहरूका हृदय तिनीहरूका मूर्तिहरूका पछि लागेका थिए ।
Because my ordinances they had despised, and in my statutes they had not walked, and my sabbaths they had profaned; for after their idols did their heart go.
17 तर तिनीहरूको सर्वनाश हुनबाट मैले तिनीहरूमा दया गरें, र मैले उजाड-स्‍थान तिनीहरूको अस्‍तित्‍व मेटाइन ।
Nevertheless my eye looked pityingly on them, so as not to destroy them, and I did not make an end of them in the wilderness.
18 उजाड-स्‍थान मैले तिनीहरूका छोराछोरीलाई भनें, “तिमीहरूका पुर्खाहरूका विधिहरूमा नहिंड न त तिनीहरूका नियमहरू पालन गर, न त तिनीहरूका मूर्तिहरूले आफूलाई बिटुलो पार्ने काम गर ।
And I said unto their children in the wilderness, In the statutes of your fathers shall ye not walk, and their ordinances shall ye not keep, and on their idols shall ye not defile yourselves.
19 म परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्‍वर हुँ, मेरा विधिहरूमा हिंड, र मेरा नियमहरू मान र पालन गर ।
I am the Lord your God: in my statutes must ye walk, and my ordinances must ye keep, and do them;
20 मेरा शबाथहरूलाई पवित्र राख, ताकि मेरो र तिमीहरूका बिचमा ती एउटा चिन्‍ह हुनेछन्, ताकि म नै परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्‍वर हुँ भनी तिमीहरूले जान्‍नेछौ ।”
And my sabbaths must ye sanctify; and they shall be as a sign between me and between you, that ye may know that I am the Lord your God.
21 तर तिनीहरूका छोराछोरीले मेरो विरुद्धमा विद्रोह गरे । तिनीहरू मेरा उर्दीहरूमा हिंडेनन्, न त मेरा व्‍यवस्‍थाहरू पालन गरे । मानिसले ती पालन गर्‍यो भने त्‍यसद्वारा ऊ बाँच्‍नेछ । तिनीहरूले मेरा शबाथहरूलाई बिटुलो पारे, यसैले मेरो क्रोध शान्त पार्न मैले उजाड-स्‍थान आफ्‍नो रिस तिनीहरूका विरुद्धमा खन्‍याउने निश्‍चय गरें ।
Nevertheless the children rebelled against me; in my statutes did they not walk, and my ordinances they kept not to do them, which a man is to do, that he may live through them; my sabbaths they profaned: and I then thought to pour out my fury over them, to let out all my anger against them in the wilderness.
22 तर मैले आफ्‍नो हात फर्काएँ, र मेरो नाउँको खातिर काम गरें यसरी मैले इस्राएलीहरूलाई निकालेर ल्‍याएको देखेका जातिहरूका दृष्‍टिमा त्‍यो अपवित्र नहोस्‌ ।
But I withdrew my hand, and acted for the sake of my name, so as not to profane it before the eyes of the nations, before whose eyes I had brought them forth.
23 तिनीहरूलाई म जातिहरूका बिचमा छरपष्‍ट पार्नेछु, र तिनीहरूलाई देशहरूमा तितरबितर पार्नेछु भनेर तिनीहरूसित उजाड-स्‍थान एउटा शपथ खानलाई म आफैले पनि आफ्‍नो हात उठाएँ ।
I also lifted up my hand unto them in the wilderness, that I would scatter them among the nations, and disperse them through the countries;
24 तिनीहरूले मेरा नियमहरू नमानेका हुनाले र तिनीहरूले मेरा विधिहरूलाई इन्‍कार गरेका र मेरा शबाथहरूलाई बिटुलो पारेका हुनाले मैले यसो गर्ने निर्णय गरें । तिनीहरूका आँखाहरूले आफ्‍ना पुर्खाहरूका मूर्तिहरूको लालसा गरे ।
Because my ordinances they had not executed, and my statutes they had despised, and my sabbaths they had profaned, and after the idols of their fathers their eyes were directed.
25 तब मैले तिनीहरूलाई यस्‍ता विधानहरू पनि दिएँ जो असल थिएनन्, र यस्‍ता नियमहरू दिएँ जसद्वारा तिनीहरू बाँच्‍न सकेनन् ।
And I also let them follow statutes that were not good, and ordinances whereby they could not live;
26 तिनीहरूका उपहारहरूद्वारा मैले तिनीहरूलाई अशुद्ध घोषणा गरें— तिनीहरूले गर्भका हरेक जेठोको बलिदान चढाए र तिनीहरूलाई आगोमा हिंड्न लगाए—कि मैले तिनीहरूलाई त्रसित बनाउन सकूँ यसरी म परमप्रभु हुँ भनी तिनीहरूले जान्‍नेछन् ।’
And I let them be defiled through their gifts, in that they caused to pass [through the fire] all that openeth the womb, in order that I might destroy them, to the end that they might know that I am the Lord.
27 यसकारण, ए मानिसको छोरो, इस्राएलका घरानासँग बोल् र तिनीहरूलाई भन्, 'परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर यसो भन्‍नुहुन्‍छः यसमा पनि तिमीहरूका पुर्खाहरू मप्रति विश्‍वासघाती बनेर मेरो निन्‍दा गरे ।
Therefore, speak unto the house of Israel, O son of man, and say unto them, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Yet in this too did your fathers blaspheme me, by their committing a trespass against me:
28 जब मैले शपथ खाएर तिनीहरूलाई दिन्‍छु भनेको देशमा मैले तिनीहरूलाई ल्‍याएँ, तब जहाँ तिनीहरूले कुनै अग्‍लो डाँडा वा कुनै झ्‍याम्‍म पातहरू भएको रूख देखे, त्‍यहाँ तिनीहरूले आफ्‍ना बलिदानहरू चढाए । अनि आफ्‍ना भेटीहरूद्वारा तिनीहरूले मलाई रिस उठाए, र त्‍यहाँ तिनीहरूले आफ्‍ना सुगन्‍धित धूप पनि बाले र आफ्‍ना अर्घ-बलि चढाए ।
When I had brought them into the land, for which I had lifted up my hand to give it to them, they saw every high hill, and all the thick-branched trees, and they offered there their sacrifices, and presented there their provoking offerings, and they brought there their sweet savor, and poured out there their drink-offerings.
29 तब मैले तिनीहरूलाई सोधें, “तिमीहरूले भेटी चढाउने गरेको अग्‍लो ठाउँ के हो?” आजको दिनसम्‍म त्‍यो ठाउँलाई बामा भनिन्‍छ ।
Then said I unto them, What is this high-place whereunto ye go? And its name was called “The height” until this day.
30 यसकारण इस्राएलको घरानालाई यसो भन्‌: 'परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर यसो भन्‍नुहुन्‍छः तिमीहरू आफ्‍ना पुर्खाहरूका चालमा हिंडेर तिमीहरू आफूलाई पनि किन बिटुलो पार्छौ? घिनलाग्‍दा कुराहरूको खोजी गरेर किन तिमीहरू वेश्याहरूझैं काम गर्छौ?
Therefore say unto the house of Israel, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Ha! do you pollute yourselves after the manner of your fathers; and after their abominations do ye go astray?
31 जब तिमीहरू आफ्‍ना उपहारहरू चढाउँछौ— जब तिमीहरू आफ्‍ना छोराहरूलाई आगोमा हिंड्न लगाउँछौ— तब आजको दिनसम्‍म पनि तिमीहरूले आफ्‍ना मूर्तिहरूको कारणले आफैलाई बिटुलो पार्छौ । यसैले ए इस्राएलको घराना, मसँग सोधपूछ गर्न मैले तिमीहरूलाई किन दिनु? जस्तो म जीवित छु— यो परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वरको घोषणा हो— तिमीहरूले मलाई सोधपूछ गर्न म दिनेछैनँ ।
And when ye offer up your gifts, when ye make your sons pass through the fire, ye pollute yourselves with all your idols, even until this day: and I should allow myself to be inquired of by you, O house of Israel? As I live, saith the Lord Eternal, I will not let myself be inquired of by you.
32 तिमीहरूको मनमा उठेको विचार कहिले पुरा हुँनेछैन । तिमीहरू भन्‍छौ, “हामीहरू अरू जातिहरूजस्‍तै, काठ र ढुङ्गालाई पुज्ने अरू देशका जातिहरूजस्तै बनौं ।”
And that which cometh up into your mind shall not at all come to pass, [namely, ] that ye say, We will be like the nations, like the families of the [other] countries, to serve wood and stone.
33 जस्‍तो म जीवित छु— यो परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वरको घोषणा हो— शक्तिशाली हात र पसारेको पाखुराद्वारा म तिमीहरूमाथि राज्‍य गर्नेछु र तिमीहरूमाथि क्रोध खन्‍याउनेछु ।
As I live, saith the Lord Eternal, surely, with a mighty hand, and with an outstretched arm, and with fury poured out, will I rule over you:
34 तिमीहरूलाई म अरू जातिहरूका बिचबाट निकालेर ल्‍याउनेछु, र तिमीहरू छरपष्‍ट भएका देशहरूबाट म तिमीहरूलाई भेला गर्नेछु । मेरो शक्तिशाली हातले म यसो गर्नेछु र क्रोध खन्‍याउनेछु ।
And I will bring you out from the people, and I will gather you out of the countries wherein ye are scattered, with a mighty hand, and with an outstretched arm, and with [my] fury poured out.
35 तब म तिमीहरूलाई जातिहरूको उजाड-स्‍थान ल्‍याउनेछु, र त्‍यहाँ म तिमीहरूको न्‍याय आमने-सामनेमा गर्नेछु ।
And I will bring you into the wilderness of the people, and I will hold judgment over you there, face to face.
36 जसरी मिश्रदेशको उजाड-स्‍थान मैले तिमीहरूका पुर्खाहरूको न्‍याय गरें, त्‍यसरी नै म तिमीहरूको न्‍याय म गर्नेछु— यो परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वरको घोषणा हो ।
As I held judgment over your fathers in the wilderness of the land of Egypt, so will I hold judgment over you, saith the Lord Eternal.
37 म तिमीहरूलाई मेरो लौरो मुनि छिर्न लाउनेछु, र तिमीहरूलाई करारमा भएका कुराहरू मान्‍न लगाउनेछु ।
And I will cause you to pass under the rod, and I will bring you into the bond of the covenant;
38 तिमीहरूका माझबाट विद्रोह गर्नेहरू र मेरो विरुद्धमा अपराध गर्नेहरूलाई म हटाउनेछु । तिनीहरू प्रवासी भएर बसेको देशबाट म तिनीहरूलाई बाहिर पठाउनेछु, तर तिनीहरू इस्राएल देशमा पस्‍नेछैनन् । तब म नै परमप्रभु हुँ भनी तिमीहरूले जान्‍नेछौ ।
And I will separate from you those that have rebelled, and those that have transgressed against me: out of the country where they sojourn will I cause them to go forth, but into the land of Israel shall not one [of them] enter; and ye shall know that I am the Lord.
39 यसैले ए इस्राएलका घराना, परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर तिमीहरूलाई यसो भन्‍नुहुन्‍छः तिमीहरू हरेक आ-आफ्‍नो मूर्तिहरूतिर जानुपर्छ । तिमीहरू मेरो कुरा सुन्‍न इन्‍कार गर्छौ भने तिनीहरूकै पुजा गर, तर आफ्‍ना उपहारहरू र मूर्तिहरूले मेरो पवित्र नाउँलाई तिमीहरूले अपवित्र पार्नुहुँदैन ।
As for you, O house of Israel, thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Go ye, serve ye every one his idols, and hereafter [also], if ye will not hearken unto me; but my holy name do not profane any more with your gifts, and with your idols.
40 किनकि मेरो पवित्र पर्वतमा, इस्राएलको पहाडको टाकुरामा— यो परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वरको घोषणा हो— इस्राएलका जम्‍मै घरानाले त्‍यहाँ मेरो आराधना गर्नेछन् । त्‍यहीं नै म तिमीहरूका भेटीहरू, तिमीहरूका सबैभन्‍दा उत्तम उपहारहरू, तिमीहरूका सबै पवित्र थोकहरूको बलिदानहरू ग्रहण गर्नेछु ।
For on my holy mountain, on the mountain of the height of Israel, saith the Lord Eternal, there shall serve me all the house of Israel, altogether, in the land: there will I accept them in favor, and there will I require your heave-offerings, and the first-fruits of your oblations, with all your holy things.
41 जब म तिमीहरूलाई मानिसहरूबाट निकालेर ल्‍याउँछ र तिमीहरू छरपष्‍ट भएका देशहरूबाट तिमीहरूलाई भेला गराउनेछु, तब म तिमीहरूलाई बास्‍ना आउने धूपझैं ग्रहण गर्नेछु । जातिहरूका दृष्‍टिमा म तिमीहरूका बिचमा आफैलाई पवित्र प्रकट गर्नेछु ।
With your sweet savor will I accept you in favor, when I bring you out from the people, and gather you out of the countries wherein ye have been scattered: and I will be sanctified through you before the eyes of the nations.
42 जब म तिमीहरूलाई इस्राएल देशमा ल्‍याउनेछु, जुन देश तिमीहरूका पुर्खाहरूलाई दिन्‍छु भनी मैले आफ्‍ना हात उचालेर शपथ खाएको थिएँ, तब तिमीहरूले म नै परमप्रभु हुँ भनी जान्‍नेछौ ।
And ye shall know that I am the Lord, when I bring you into the land of Israel, into the country for which I have lifted up my hand to give it to your fathers.
43 आफ्‍ना जुन व्‍यवहार र कामहरूले तिमीहरूले आफूलाई अशुद्ध पार्‍यौ, ती त्‍यहाँ तिमीहरूले सम्‍झनेछौ, र तिमीहरूले गरेका सबै दुष्‍ट कामहरूका निम्‍ति आफ्‍नै दृष्‍टिमा तिमीहरूले आफूलाई तुच्‍छ ठान्‍नेछौ ।
And ye shall remember there your ways, and all your doings, whereby ye have been defiled; and ye shall loathe yourselves, because of all your evil deeds that ye have committed.
44 यसरी, ए इस्राएलका घराना, तिमीहरूका दुष्‍ट कामहरू र तिमीहरूका भ्रष्‍टा कामहरूका कारणले होइन, तर मेरो नाउँको खातिर मैले तिमीहरूसित व्‍यवहार गर्दा, तिमीहरूले म नै परमप्रभु हुँ भनी जान्‍नेछौ— यो परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वरको घोषणा हो'।”
And ye shall know that I am the Lord, when I deal with you for the sake of my name, not in accordance with your wicked ways, and in accordance with your corrupt doings, O ye house of Israel, saith the Lord Eternal.
45 तब परमप्रभुको वचन यसो भनेर मकहाँ आयो,
And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,
46 ए मानिसको छोरो, आफ्‍नो अनुहार दक्षिण देशतिर फर्का र दक्षिणको विरुद्धमा बपल् । नेगेभको वनको विरुद्धमा अगमवाणी भन्‌ ।
Son of man, set thy face in the direction toward the south, and preach toward the south, and prophesy against the forest of the field in the south.
47 नेगेभको वनलाई भन्‌, 'यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो— परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर यसो भन्‍नुहुन्‍छः हेर्, म तेरो माझमा आगो सल्‍काउनेछु । त्यसले तेरा माझमा भएका हरेक हरिया रूख र हरेक सुकेका रूखलाई भष्‍म गर्नेछ । त्‍यो दन्‍केको ज्‍वाला निभाइनेछैन । दक्षिणदेखि उत्तरसम्‍मका हरेक अनुहार जल्‍नेछन् ।
And say to the forest of the south, Hear the word of the Lord, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Behold, I will kindle a fire in thee, and it shall devour in thee every green tree, and every dry tree: the glowing flame shall not be quenched, and there shall be burnt therein all faces from the south to the north.
48 जब म आगो सल्काउँछु र त्‍यसलाई निभइनेछैन, तब हरेक प्रणीले म परमप्रभुले हुँ भनी देख्‍नेछ ।’”
And all flesh shall see that I the Lord have kindled it: it shall not be quenched.
49 तब मैले भने, “धिक्‍कार! हे परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर, तिनीहरूले मलाई यसो भन्‍दैछन्, ‘के उसले उखानहरू मात्र भनेको होइन र'?”
Then said I, Ah Lord Eternal! they say of me, Behold, he speaketh but in parables!
