< इजकिएल 22 >
1 तब परमप्रभुको वचन यसो भनेर मकहाँ आयोः
And there is a word of YHWH to me, saying,
2 “अब ए मानिसको छोरो, के तँ न्याय गर्छस्? के तँ त्यो रगतको सहरको न्याय गर्छस्? त्यसका सबै घृणित कुराहरू त्यसलाई जानकारी दे ।
“And you, son of man, do you judge? Do you judge the city of blood? Then you have caused it to know all its abominations,
3 तैंले यसको भन्नुपर्छ, 'परमप्रभु परमेश्वर यसो भन्नुहुन्छः आफ्नै अन्त्यको समय आओस् भनेर आफ्नो बिचमा रगत बगाउने सहर यही हो । आफूलाई बिटुलो पार्नलाई मूर्तिहरू बनाउने सहर यही हो ।
and you have said, Thus said Lord YHWH: The city is shedding blood in its midst, For the coming in of its time, And it has made idols on it for defilement.
4 तैंले बगाएको रगतको कारणले तँ दोषी भएको छस्, र तैंले बनाएका मूर्तिहरूद्वारा तँ अशुद्ध भएको छस् । तैंले आफ्ना दिनहरूको अन्त्य गरेको छस्, र तेरा वर्षहरूको अन्त्य आएको छ । यसैकारण म तँलाई जातिहरूका बिचमा गिल्ला र सबै देशमा हाँसोको पात्र बनाउनेछु ।
You have been guilty by your blood that you have shed, And you have been defiled by your idols that you have made, And you cause your days to draw near, And have come to your years, Therefore I have given you [for] a reproach to nations, And a derision to all the lands.
5 तेरो नजिक हुनेहरू र टाढा हुनेहरू दुवैले तेरो गिल्ला गर्नेछन्— तँ अपवित्र सहर— अलमल पार्ने कुराहरूले भरिएको सहरको रूपमा चिनिएको छस् ।
The near and the far-off from you scoff at you, O defiled of name—abounding in trouble.
6 हेर्, इस्राएलका शासहरू, रगत बगाउन हरेक व्यक्ति आफ्नै शक्तिले तँकहाँ आएका छन् ।
Behold, princes of Israel—each according to his arm Have been in you to shed blood.
7 तँभित्रै तिनीहरूले माताहरू र बाबुहरूसँग अपमानको व्यवहार गरेका छन्, र तिनीहरूले तेरो बिचमा भएका विदेशीहरूमाथि अत्याचार गरेका छन् । तेरो बिचमा भएका टुहुरा-टुहुरी र विधवाहरूलाई तिनीहरूले दुर्व्यवहार गरेका छन् ।
They have made light of father and mother in you, They dealt oppressively to a sojourner in your midst, They oppressed fatherless and widow in you.
8 मेरा पवित्र कुराहरूलाई तैंले घृणा गरेको छस् र मेरा शबाथहरूलाई अपवित्र पारेको छस् ।
You have despised My holy things, And you have defiled My Sabbaths.
9 रगत बगाउनलाई हत्या गर्ने मानिसहरू तँभित्र आएका छन्, र तिनीहरूले डाँडाहरूमा खान्छन् । तिनीहरूले तेरो बिचमा दुष्ट काम गर्छन् ।
Men of slander have been in you to shed blood, And they have eaten on the mountains in you, They have done wickedness in your midst.
10 तेरो भित्र भएका मानिसहरूले आफ्ना पिताको नङ्नता प्रकट गर्छन् । तेरो भित्र भएका मानिसहरूले रजस्वला भएकी स्त्रिसँग सम्भोग गरेर अशुद्ध भएका छन् ।
One has uncovered the nakedness of a father in you, They humbled the menstruous woman in you.
11 आफ्नो छिमेकीकी पत्नीसँग घिनलाग्दा काम गर्ने मानिसहरू, र आफ्नी बुहारीहरूलाई लाज हुने किसिमले अशुद्ध पार्ने मानिसहरू, आफ्नै बहिनीहरू—आफ्ना बुबाकी छोरीहरूलाई बिगार्ने मानिसहरू —यी सबै जना तँभित्रै छन् ।
And each has done abomination with the wife of his neighbor, And each has defiled his daughter-in-law through wickedness, And each has humbled his sister, his father’s daughter, in you.
12 तँभित्र यी मानिसहरूले रक्तपात गर्नलाई घूस लिन्छन् र तैंले बढी ब्याज लिएर र धेरै मुनाफा कमाएको छस्, र थिचोमिचो गरेर तैंले आफ्नो छिमेकीलाई नष्ट गरेको छस्, र तैंले मलाई बिर्सेको छस्— यो परमप्रभु परमेश्वरको घोषणा हो ।
They have taken a bribe to shed blood in you, You have taken usury and increase, And cut off your neighbor by oppression, And you have forgotten Me, A declaration of Lord YHWH!
13 हेर्, तैंले अन्यायसित नाफा गरेको र तेरो बिचमा भएको रक्तपातलाई मैले आफ्नो हातले प्रहार गरेको छु ।
And behold, I have struck My hand, Because of your dishonest gain that you have gained, And for your blood that has been in your midst.
14 मैले तँसित व्यवहार गरेको दिनमा के तेरो हृदय स्थिर रहला, अनि तेरो हात दह्रिलो होला र? म परमप्रभुले यो घोषणा गर्दैछु, र म त्यसै गर्नेछु ।
Does your heart stand—are your hands strong, For the days that I am dealing with you? I, YHWH, have spoken and have done [it].
15 यसैले म तँलाई जातिहरूका बिचमा छरपष्ट पार्नेछु, र तँलाई देशहरूमा तितरबितर पार्नेछु । यसरी तँमा भएको अशुद्धताबाट तँलाई शुद्ध पार्नेछु ।
And I have scattered you among nations, And have spread you out among lands, And consumed your uncleanness out of you.
16 यसरी तँ जातिहरूका दृष्टिमा तँ अशुद्ध हुनेछस् । तब म नै परमप्रभु हुँ भनी तैंले जान्नेछस्' ।”
And you have been defiled in yourself Before the eyes of nations, And you have known that I [am] YHWH.”
17 त्यसपछि परमप्रभुको वचन यसो भनेर मकहाँ भयो,
And there is a word of YHWH to me, saying,
18 “ए मानिसको छोरो, इस्राएलको घराना मेरो निम्ति थेग्रो भएको छ । ती सबै जना तिमीहरूका बिचमा काँसा, जस्ता, फलाम र सीसाका उब्रेका कुरा भएका छन् । तिनीहरू तेरो भट्टीमा चाँदीका थेग्राझैं हुनेछन् ।
“Son of man, the house of Israel has been for dross to Me, All of them [are] bronze, and tin, and iron, and lead, In the midst of a furnace—silver has been dross,
19 यसकारण परमप्रभु परमेश्वर यसो भन्नुहुन्छ, 'तिमीहरू सबै जना थेग्राजस्ता भएका हुनाले, म तिमीहरूलाई यरूशलेमको बिचमा जम्मा गर्न लागेको छु ।
Therefore, thus said Lord YHWH: Because you have all become dross, Therefore, behold, I am gathering you into the midst of Jerusalem,
20 जसरी चाँदी, काँसा, फलाम, सीसा र जस्तालाई भट्टीमा गलाउनलाई मानिसहरूले जम्मा गर्छन्, त्यसरी नै म पनि मेरो रिस र मेरो क्रोधमा तिमीहरूलाई जम्मा गर्नेछु, र म तिमीहरूलाई त्यहाँ हाल्नेछु र तिमीहरूलाई गाल्नेछु ।
A gathering of silver, and bronze, and iron, and lead, and tin, Into the midst of a furnace—to blow fire on it, to melt it, So I gather in My anger and in My fury, And I have let rest, and have melted you.
21 म तिमीहरूलाई भेला गर्नेछु, र मेरो क्रोधको आगोमा तिमीहरूलाई फुक्नेछु, र तिमीहरू त्यसैभित्र गल्नेछौ ।
And I have heaped you up, And blown on you in the fire of My wrath, And you have been melted in its midst.
22 जसरी भट्टीमा चाँदी गल्छ, र तिमीहरू त्यसभित्र गल्नेछौ, र म परमप्रभुले नै तिमीहरूमाथि आफ्नो क्रोध खन्याएको हुँ भनी तिमीहरूले जान्नेछौ' ।”
As the melting of silver in the midst of a furnace, So you are melted in its midst, And you have known that I, YHWH, have poured out My fury on you.”
23 परमप्रभुको वचन यसो भनेर मकहाँ आयो,
And there is a word of YHWH to me, saying,
24 “ए मानिसको छोरो, त्यसलाई भन्, 'तँ शुद्ध नगरिएको देश होस् । क्रोधको दिनमा त्यहाँ वर्षा हुँदैन ।
“Son of man, say to it, You [are] a land, It [is] not cleansed nor rained on in a day of indignation.
25 गर्जने सिंहले शिकार टुक्र्याएझैं त्यसको बिचमा भएका त्यसका अगमवक्ताहरूले एउटा षड्यन्त्र रच्छन् । तिनीहरूले मानिसहरूलाई निल्छन् र बहुमूल्य धन लुट्छन् । त्यसभित्र तिनीहरूले धेरै जनालाई विधवा बनाउँछन् ।
A conspiracy of its prophets [is] in its midst, As a roaring lion tearing prey; They have devoured the soul, They have taken wealth and glory, Its widows have multiplied in its midst.
26 त्यसका पुजारीहरूले मेरो व्यवस्था भङ्ग गर्छन् र तिनीहरूले मेरा पवित्र चीजहरू तुच्छ ठान्छन्। तिनीहरूले पवित्र कुरा र तुच्छ कुराको बिचमा भिन्नता छुट्याउँदैनन्, अनि अशुद्ध र शुद्धको बिचको भिन्ता सिकाउँदैनन्। तिनीहरूले मेरा शबाथहरूबाट आफ्ना आँखा लुकाउँछन् ताकि तिनीहरूका बिचमा म तच्छ भएको छु ।
Its priests have wronged My law, And they defile My holy things, They have not made separation between holy and common, And they have not made known [the difference] between the unclean and the clean, And they have hidden their eyes from My Sabbaths, And I am pierced in their midst.
27 त्यसभित्र भएका त्यसका शासकहरू आफ्नो शिकार फहराउने ब्वाँसाहरूजस्ता छन् । तिनीहरूले बेईमानसाथ नाफा कमाउनलाई रगत बगाउँछन् र मानिसहरूलाई मार्छन् ।
Its princes [are] as wolves in its midst, Tearing prey, to shed blood, to destroy souls, For the sake of gaining dishonest gain.
28 त्यसका अगमवक्ताहरूले तिनीहरूमाथि चुनले पोतेका छन्। तिनीहरूले असत्य दर्शन देख्छन् र तिनीहरूका निम्ति झूटा अगमवाणी बोल्छन् । तिनीहरू भन्छन्, “परमप्रभु परमेश्वर यसो भन्नुहुन्छ,' जबकि परमप्रभु बोल्नुभएकै हुँदैन ।
And its prophets have coated with chalk for them, Seeing a vain thing, and divining a lie for them, Saying, Thus said Lord YHWH, And YHWH has not spoken.
29 देशका मानिसहरूले बलपूर्वक थिचोमिचो गरेका छन् र लुटपाट गरेर लूट मच्चाएका छन्, अनि तिनीहरूले गरीब र दरिद्रहरूमाथि दुर्व्यवहार गर्छन्, र विदेशीहरूसँग अन्यायपूर्वक थिचोमिचो गर्छन् ।
The people of the land have used oppression, And have taken plunder away violently, And have oppressed humble and needy, And oppressed the sojourner without judgment.
30 यसैले पर्खाल निर्माण गरिदिने र देश मद्वारा नष्ट नहोस् भनी देशको लागि मेरो सामुन्ने धाँदोमा उभिदिने एक जना मानिस तिनीहरूका बिचमा मैले हेरें, तर मैले कोही पनि पाइनँ ।
And I seek from them a man making a wall, And standing in the breach before Me, In behalf of the land—not to destroy it, And I have found none.
31 त्यसैले तिनीहरूमाथि म आफ्नो क्रोध खन्याउनेछु । मेरो रिसको आगोले म तिनीहरूलाई खत्तम गर्नेछु र तिनीहरूका चाल तिनीहरूकै थाप्लोमा हाल्नेछु— यो परमप्रभु परमेश्वरको घोषणा हो ।"'
And I pour out My indignation on them, I have consumed them by [the] fire of My wrath, I have put their way on their own head, A declaration of Lord YHWH!”
