1 'परमप्रभुको वचन यसो भनेर मकहाँ आयो,
And the word of Yahweh came unto me saying,
2 “ए मानिसको छोरो, एउटै आमाका दुई छोरीहरू त्‍यहाँ थिए ।
Son of man, Two women, daughters of one mother, there were;
3 आफ्नो जवानी दिनमा तिनीहरूले मिश्रदेशमा वेश्‍यावृति गरे । तिनीहरूले त्यहाँ वेश्याको काम गरे । त्यहाँ तिनीहरूका स्‍तन मिचिए र तिनीहरूको कुमारी अवस्‍थाको मुन्टाहरू खेलाइए ।
And they became unchaste in Egypt, In their youth, became they unchaste, There, were handled their breasts, And there, were pressed their virgin bosoms.
4 तिनिहरूमा दिदीको नाउँ ओहोला र बहिनीको नाउँ ओहोलिबा थियो । तब तिनीहरू मेरा भए, र तिनीहरूले छोराछोरी जन्‍माए । तिनीहरूका नाउँको अर्थ यही होः ओहोलाको अर्थ सामरिया र ओहोलिबाको अर्थ यरूशलेम हो ।
And their names were Oholah the elder And Oholibah—her sister, And they became mine and bare sons and daughters, - And as for their names, Samaria was Oholah, And Jerusalem, was Oholibah.
5 तर मेरै भएको बेलामा पनि ओहोलाले वेश्‍यावृत्ति गरी । आफ्‍ना प्रेमी, प्रभावशाली अश्‍शूरीहरूसित त्‍यो मोहित भई,
Then became Oholah unchaste after she had become mine- And lusted after her lovers, For Assyrians, so warlike,
6 नीलो वस्‍त्र लाउने गभर्नर र तिनका अधिकारीहरू, जो बलिया र सुन्दर थिए, ती सबै जना घोडा चढ्ने मानिसहरू थिए ।
Clothed in blue Governors and deputies, Attractive young men all of them, -Horsemen riding on horses.
7 यसरी तिनीहरू, सबै असल अश्‍शूरी मानिसहरूलाई त्यसले आफैलाई सुम्पिदिई, र त्‍यो मोहित भएका हरेक व्‍यक्‍तिसँग अनि तिनीहरूका सबै मूर्तिहरूसँग त्यसले आफैलाई अशुद्ध पारी ।
So she bestowed her unchastities upon them, The choicest men of Assyria all of them, - And, with whomsoever she lusted after-with all their manufactured gods, she defiled herself.
8 किनकि त्‍यसले मिश्रदेशमा हुँदा पनि त्‍यसको वेश्‍यावृतिको व्‍यवहार छाडेकी थिईन । जति बेला त्‍यो एउटी जवान केटी थिई, त्‍यति बेला तिनीहरू त्‍योसित सुतेका थिए । त्‍यति बेला तिनीहरूले पहिलो पल्‍ट त्‍यसका कन्‍या स्‍तनहरू खेलाएका थिए । त्‍यति बेला तिनीहरूले त्‍यससित आफ्‍ना यौनका छाडा व्‍यवहार गर्न सुरु गरेका थिए ।
And, her unchaste doings from the time she was in Egypt, had she not forsaken, For with her, had they lain in her youth, Yea they had pressed her virgin bosoms, - and had poured out their unchastity upon her.
9 यसकारण त्यसका प्रेमीहरूका हातमा अर्थात् अश्‍शूरीहरूका हातमा मैले त्यसलाई सुम्पिदिएँ, जोसँग त्यो मोहित भई ।
therefore, did I deliver her into the hand of her lovers, - into the hand of the sons of Assyria, after whom she lusted:
10 तिनीहरूले त्यसलाई नाङ्गो पारे, त्यसका छोराछोरीलाई लगे, त्यसलाई तरवारले मारे र अरू स्‍त्रीहरूका माझमा त्यो कुख्‍यात भई । यसरी तिनीहरूले त्यसलाई दण्ड दिए ।
They disclosed her shame, Her sons and her daughters: , took they away, And herself—with the sword, they slew, — Thus became she a by-word among women, when judgments, they had executed upon her.
11 त्‍यसकी बहिनी ओहोलिबाले त्‍यो कुरा देखी, तर त्‍यो झन् बढी कामुक भई र आफ्‍नी दिदीभन्‍दा पनि बढी वेश्‍यावृत्तिको काम गर्न लागी ।
And though her sister Oholibah saw, Yet became she more corrupt in her lust than the other, - And her unchaste doings exceeded the unchaste doings of her sister.
12 अश्‍शूरीहरू, तिनका गभर्नरहरू र आकर्षक किसिमले वस्‍त्र पहिरिने अधिकारीहरूसँग त्यो कामुक भई, जो घोडा चढ्‍ने मानिसहरू थिए । ती सबै जना बलिया र सुन्दर मानिसहरू थिए ।
After the sons of Assyria: , she lusted Governors and deputies so warlike. Clothed in splendid array, Horsemen, riding on horses, Attractive young men, all of them.
13 त्यसले आफैलाई अशुद्ध पारेकी मैले देखें । ती दुवै जना दिदीबहिनी उस्‍तै थिए ।
So I saw that she defiled herself, — One way, had they both.
14 त्‍यसपछि त्‍यसले आफ्‍नो वेश्‍यावृत्ति झन्‌ बढाई । भित्तामा कोरिएका मानिसहरू, भित्तामा रातो रङ्गले पेन्‍ट गरेर बनाइएका कल्‍दीहरूका चित्रहरू त्यसले देखी,
Yet did she add, unto her unchaste doings, when she saw men portrayed upon the wall, likenesses of Chaldeans, Portrayed with vermilion:
15 आफ्‍ना कम्‍मर वरिपरि पटुका बाँधेका र आफ्‍ना शिरमा लट्‌कने फेटा बाँधेका । ती सबै जना कल्‍दी फौजका रथी अधिकारीहरूजस्‍ता, बेबिलोनियाका छोराहरूजस्‍तै देखिन्‍थे, जसको आफ्‍नो देश कल्‍दीया हो ।
Girded with waistcloths upon their loins With overhanging high turbans upon their heads, In appearance, knights all of them, -The likeness of the sons of Babylon of Chaldea, the land of their birth.
16 त्‍यसले उनीहरूलाई देख्‍ने बित्तिकै उनीहरूका निम्‍ति त्‍यो कामुक भई । यसैले कल्‍दिया देशमा उनीहरूकहाँ त्‍यसले दूतहरू पठाई ।
Then lusted she after them, as soon as her eyes beheld them, — And she sent messengers unto them to Chaldea.
17 त्‍यसपछि बेबिलोनीहरू त्‍यसकहाँ त्‍यसको कामुक ओच्छ्यानमा आए र आफ्‍ना छाडा यौनले तिनीहरूले त्‍यसलाई अशुद्ध पारे । त्‍यसले जे गरेकी थिई त्‍यसद्वारा त्‍यो अशुद्ध भई । यसरी मनमा घृणा बोकेर त्‍यो उनीहरूसँग टाढा भई ।
Then came in unto her the sons of Babylon into the bed of endearments, and defiled her with their unchaste doings, - And she defiled herself with them, And then was her soul torn from them.
18 जब त्‍यसले आफ्‍ना वेश्‍यावृत्तिका कामहरू गरी र आफ्‍नो नग्‍नता देखाई, तब जसरी मनमा घृणा बोकेर त्‍यसकी दिदीसँग म टाढा भएको थिएँ, त्‍यसरी नै म त्योसँग पनि टाढा भएँ ।
Thus disclosed she her unchaste desires, And disclosed her shame, - So my soul was torn from her, Just as my soul had been torn from her sister.
19 तब मिश्रदेशमा त्‍यो वेश्या हुँदाको, आफ्‍ना युवावस्‍थाका समयलाई सम्‍झेर त्‍यसले आफ्‍नो वेश्‍यावृत्ति झन्‌ बढाई ।
Yea she multiplied her unchaste desires, -calling to mind the days of her youth, when she was unchaste in the land of Egypt; -
20 यसरी त्‍यो आफ्‍ना प्रेमीहरूसित कामुक भई, जसका गुताङ्गहरू गधाहरूका जस्‍ता थिए, अनि जसका वीर्य घोडाहरूका झैं निस्‍कन्‍थ्‍यो ।
So she lusted after their courtiers, - Whose flesh was the flesh of asses, and Whose issue was the issue of horses.
21 मिश्रीहरूले तेरा स्‍तनका मुन्‍टाहरू खेलाउँदा र तेरा जवानीका स्‍तनहरू मिच्‍दा, तैंले आफ्‍ना जवानीका लज्‍जापूर्ण कामहरू यसरी नै गरिस् ।
Yea thou didst look about for the lewdness of thy youth, - When were pressed by the Egyptians. thy bosoms, When they handled thy youthful breasts.
22 यसैकारण ए ओहोलिबा, परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर यसो भन्‍नुहुन्‍छः ‘हेर्, तेरा प्रेमीहरूलाई म तेरो विरुद्धमा उठाउनेछु । जसबाट तँ टाढा भईस्, उनीहरूलाई चारैतिरबाट म तेरो विरुद्धमा ल्‍याउनेछुः
Therefore, O Oholibah, Thus saith My Lord Yahweh, Behold me! rousing up thy lovers against thee, Even them from whom thy soul hath been torn, - And I will bring them against thee from every side:
23 बेबिलोनीहरू र सबै कल्‍दीहरू, पकोद, शोअ र कोअका मानिसहरू, र तिनीहरूसँगै सबै अश्‍शूरहरू, बलिया, सुन्‍दर मानिसहरू, गभर्नरहरू, कमाण्‍डरहरू, ती सबै जना अधिकारीहरू र इज्‍जतदार मानिसहरूलाई, घोडामा सवार सबै जना मानिसहरूलाई ।
The sons of Babylon and all Chaldeans Pekod and Shoa and Koa, All the sons of Assyria with them, — Attractive young men Governors and deputies, all of them. Knights and men of renown, Riders on horses all of them;
24 उनीहरू तेरो विरुद्धमा हतियारहरू र रथहरू र गाडाहरू र मानिसहरूका ठुलो भीडलाई साथमा लिएर आउनेछन्‌ । ठुला ढालहरू, साना ढालहरू लिएर र टोप लाएर उनीहरूले तँलाई घेरा हाल्‍नेछन्‌ । तँलाई दण्‍ड दिने मौका उनीहरूलाई म दिनेछु, र उनीहरूले आफ्‍ना कामहरूले तँलाई दण्‍ड दिनेछन्‌ ।
And they shall come upon thee— With battle-axe, chariot and wheel And with a gathered host of peoples: Shield and buckler and helmet, will they array against thee on every side, - And I will put before them judgment, And they shall judge thee with their judgments;
25 मेरो डाहको रिस तँतिर म फर्काउनेछु, र क्रोधमा उनीहरूले तँसित व्‍यवहार गर्नेछन्‌ । उनीहरूले तेरा नाक र कान काट्‌नेछन्, र तेरा बाँचेकाहरू तरवारले ढल्‍नेछन्‌ । उनीहरूले तेरा छोराछोरीलाई लानेछन्, र तेरा बाँचेकाहरूलाई आगोले भस्‍म पार्नेछ ।
When I set forth my jealousy against thee, Then will they deal with thee in indignation: Thy nose and thine ears, will they remove, And that which is left of thee, by the sword, shall fall, — They, will take away thy sons and thy daughters, And that which is left of thee, shall be devoured by the fire;
26 उनीहरूले तेरा वस्‍त्र उतारेर तँलाई नाङ्गै बनाउनेछन्, र तेरा सबै गहना लैजानेछन्‌ ।
And they shall strip off thy raiment, - And take away thine adorning jewels!
27 यसरी तेरा लाजमर्दो व्यवहार र मिश्रदेशदेखि तैंले सुरु गरेका तेरा वेश्‍यावृत्तिका कामहरू तँबाट म हटाउनेछु । तैंले यी कुराहरूतिर आफ्‍ना कुदृष्‍टि लगाउनेछैनस्‌, र मिश्रदेशको सम्‍झना फेरि तैंले गर्नेछैनस्‌ ।'
Thus will I cause thy lewdness to cease, from thee Even thine unchastity brought from the land of Egypt, - So that thou shalt not lift up thine eyes unto them, And Egypt, shalt thou not call to mind any more.
28 किनभने परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर यसो भन्‍नुहुन्‍छः 'हेर्, म तँलाई उनीहरूकै हातमा दिनेछु, जसलाई तँ घृणा गर्छेस्, उनीहरूकै हातमा जसबाट तँ टाढा भएकी थिइस् ।
For thus saith My Lord, Yahweh, Behold me! delivering thee up, into the hand of them whom thou hatest, Into the hand of them from whom thy soul hath been torn;
29 उनीहरूले तँसित घृणापूर्वक व्‍यवहार गर्नेछन् । तेरा सबै धन-सम्‍पत्ति उनीहरूले लानेछन्‌, र तँलाई नाङ्गो र उजाड पारेर छोड्‌नेछन् । अनि तँ कामुक र वेश्‍यावृत्तिमा संलग्‍न हुँदा भएझैं तँलाई नाङ्गो पारिनेछ ।
And they shall deal with thee in hatred And take away all thy labour, And leave thee utterly naked, - And thine unchaste shame, shall be disclosed, with thy lewdness and unchastities,
30 वेश्‍याले झैं तैंले काम गरेको, जातिहरूसँग कामुक भएको, उनीहरूका मूर्तिहरूद्वारा तँ अशुद्ध भएको हुनाले यी कुराहरू तँलाई हुनेछेन् ।
These things shall be done to thee, In that thou hast gone unchastely after the nations, Because thou hast defiled thyself with their manufactured gods.
31 तँ आफ्‍नी दिदीकै चालमा हिंडेकी छेस्‌, यसैले त्‍यसको दण्‍डको कचौरा म तेरो हातमा दिनेछु ।'
In the way of thy sister, hast thou walked, Therefore will I put her cup into thy hand.
32 परमप्रभु यसो भन्‍नुहुन्‍छ, ‘तैंले तेरी दिदीको कचौरा पिउनेछस्, जो ठुलो र गहिरो छ । तँ गिल्‍ला पात्र र हाँसोको विषय हुनेछेस्— यो कचौरामा धेरै अट्छ ।
Thus, saith My Lord Yahweh, The cup of thy sister, shalt thou drink, The cup deep and large, Thou shalt become a laughingstock and a derision, much doth it contain!
33 मतवालापन र दुःखले, त्रास र विनाशको कचौराले तँ पूर्ण हुनेछेस्‌ । तेरी दिदी सामरियाको कचौरा ।
With drunkenness and grief, shalt thou be filled, - The cup of astonishment and desolation, The cup of thy sister Samaria;
34 तैंले त्यो पिउनेछेस् र त्‍यसलाई रित्तो पार्नेछेस् । त्यसपछि तैंले त्‍यो कचौरा टुक्रा-टुक्रा पार्नेछेस्, र ती टुक्राले आफ्‍ना स्‍तनहरू काट्नेछेस् । किनकि मैले नै यो घोषणा गरेको हुँ— यो परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वरको घोषणा हो ।'
Yea thou shalt drink it and drain it out And the sherds thereof, shalt thou gnaw And thy breasts, shalt thou tear out, - For, I, have spoken, Declareth My Lord. Yahweh.
35 यसकारण परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर यसो भन्‍नुहुन्‍छ, ‘तैंले मलाई बिर्सेको र मलाई तेरो पछाडि फालेको छस्, यसैले आफ्‍नो लज्‍जास्‍पद व्‍यवहार र यौनको अनैतिक कामहरूका दुष्‍परिणामहरू तैंले सहनुपर्नेछ' ।”
Therefore, Thus, saith My Lord. Yahweh, Because thou hast forgotten me, and has cast me behind thy back, Thou also thyself, bear thou thy lewdness and thine unchaste doings.
36 परमप्रभुले मलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “ए मानिसको छोरो, के तैंले ओहोला र ओहोलिबाको न्‍याय गर्नेछस्? त्‍यसैले तिनीहरूका घृणित कामहरूका तिनीहरूलाई विरोध गर,
And Yahweh said unto me, Son of man Wilt thou judge Oholah and Oholibah? Then declare thou unto them their abominations.
37 किनकि तिनीहरूले व्‍यभिचार गरेका छन्, र तिनीहरूका हातहरूमा रगत छ । तिनीहरूले आफ्‍ना मूर्तिहरूसित व्‍यभिचार गरे, र तिनीहरूका मूर्तिहरूका प्रसादको रूपमा तिनीहरूले आफ्‍ना छोराहरूलाई आगोबाट हिंड्न पनि लगाएका छन् ।
For they have committed adultery. And blood, is one their hands, Yea with their manufactured gods, have they committed adultery. And even their own children whom they bare unto me, have they set apart for them to be devoured.
38 त्यसपछि तिनीहरूले अहिले निरन्तर मलाई यसो गर्छन्‌: तिनीहरूले मेरो पवित्रस्‍थानलाई अशुद्ध पार्छन्, र त्यसै दिनमा तिनीहरूले मेरा शबाथहरूलाई अपवित्र पार्छन् ।
Yet more, this, have they done to me, They have defiled my sanctuary, on the same day, And my sabbaths, have they profaned.
39 किनभने तिनीहरूले आफ्‍ना छोराछोरीलाई आफ्‍ना मूर्तिहरूका निम्‍ति बलि चढाएका, अनि त्‍यसै दिन तिनीहरू मेरो पवित्रस्‍थानलाई अशुद्ध पार्न त्‍यसभित्र आए । यसैले हेर्, तिनीहरूले मेरो मन्‍दिरको बिचमा यसो गरेका छन् ।
Yea when they had slaughtered their children to their manufactured gods, then entered they into my sanctuary, on the same day, to profane it, - And lo! thus have they done in the midst of mine own house.
40 अब हेर— दूतहरूले पठाएका टाढाबाट आएका मानिसहरूलाई तैंले बोलाईस् । तिनीहरू साँच्‍चै आए जसका निम्‍ति तैंले नुहाईस्, आँखामा गाजल लगाईस् र आफूलाई गहनाले सिंगारिस्‌ ।
Yea verily, that ye must needs send for men, ready to come in from afar, in that, a messenger, was sent unto them and lo! they came, For whom thou didst bathe thyself Paint thine eyes And deck thyself with ornaments.
41 त्यहाँ तँ एउटा सुन्‍दर पलङ्गमा बसिस्, र त्‍यसको अगाडि सजाइएको टेबलमा मेरो धूप र मेरो तेल राखिस्‌ ।
Then satest thou upon a glorious couch With a table prepared before it, — And mine incense and mine oil, didst thou set thereon.
42 यसैले हल्ला गर्ने भीड त्यसको वरिपरी थियो । तिनमा सबै किसिमका मानिसहरू, यतिसम्म कि उजाड-स्‍थानबाट साबीहरू पनि ल्याइए, र उनीहरूले आफ्‍ना हातमा चुराहरू लगाए र शिरमा सुन्दर मुकुटहरू लगाए ।
The noise of careless throng also, was with her, And besides men out of the mass of mankind, there were brought in drunkards, out of the desert; And they put bracelets upon the hands of both women, And crowns of adorning upon their heads.
43 तब व्‍भिचारले दिक्‍क भएकी स्‍त्रीको विषयमा मैले यसो भनें, 'अब उनीहरू त्‍यससँग यौनका अनैतिक काम गर्नेछन्, र त्यसले उनीहरूसँग गर्नेछे ।’
Then said I of her that was worn out with adulteries, Will they now join in her unchaste doings even hers?
44 जसरी मानिसहरू एउटी वेश्याकहाँ जान्‍छन् त्‍यसरी उनीहरू त्‍यसकहाँ गए र त्‍यससँग सुते । यसरी उनीहरू ती अनैतिक स्‍त्रीहरू, ओहोला र ओहोलिबासित सुते ।
Yet came they in unto her, as men go in unto a woman that is a harlot, — So, came they in unto Oholah, and unto Oholibah—the lewd women!
45 तर धार्मिक मानिसहरूले न्‍याय गर्नेछन् र व्‍यभिचारिणीहरूका रूपमा तिनीहरूलाई दण्‍ड दिनेछन् अनि हत्‍या गर्नेहरूलाई सुनाउने दण्‍डले तिनीहरूले उनीहरूलाई दण्‍ड दिनेछन्, किनभने तिनीहरू व्‍यभिचारिणीहरू हुन्‌ र तिनीहरूका हातमा हत्‍याको रगत छ ।
But righteous men, they, shall judge them, With the judgment of adulteresses, and With the judgment of women that shed blood, — Because adulteresses, they are And blood, is on their hands.
46 यसैले परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर यसो भन्‍नुहुन्‍छः म तिनीहरूका विरुद्धमा एउटा भीड खडा गर्नेछु र तिनीहरूलाई त्रास र लूटमा सुम्‍पिदिनेछु ।
For thus, saith My Lord. Yahweh, - There shall be brought up against them a gathered host, Then shall they be delivered up. for a terror and for a prey,
47 तब त्यो भीडले तिनीहरूलाई ढुङ्गाले हान्‍नेछन्, र उनीहरूका तरवारले तिनीहरूलाई खत्तम पार्नेछन् । तिनीहरूका छोराछोरीलाई उनीहरूले मार्नेछन्‌ र तिनीहरूका घरहरू जलाउनेछन्‌ ।
Yea a gathered host shall stone them with stones, and dispatch them with their swords, Their sons and their daughters, shall they slay, And their houses—in the fire, shall they consume.
48 किनकि देशबाट लज्‍जास्‍पद व्‍यवहारलाई म खतम गर्नेछु, र सबै स्‍त्रीलाई अनुशासनमा ल्याउनेछु ताकि तिनीहरू फेरि वेश्याको जस्तो काम नगरून् ।
So will I make an end of lewdness out of the land, - And all women shall be disciplined, and shall not do according to your lewdness.
49 यसरी उनीहरूले तेरा लाजमर्दा व्यवहारहरू तेरै विरूद्धमा खडा गर्नेछन् । तैंले आफ्‍ना मूर्तिहरूसित गरेका पापको दोष तैंले भोग्‍नेछेस्‌, र यसरी म नै परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर हुँ भनी तैंले जान्‍नेछेस् ।
Yea the judges Shall set your lewdness upon you, And your sins with manufactured gods, shall ye bear; So shall ye know that, I, am The Lord Yahweh.
