1 'परमप्रभुको वचन यसो भनेर मकहाँ आयो,
The LORD’s word came again to me, saying,
2 “ए मानिसको छोरो, एउटै आमाका दुई छोरीहरू त्‍यहाँ थिए ।
“Son of man, there were two women, the daughters of one mother.
3 आफ्नो जवानी दिनमा तिनीहरूले मिश्रदेशमा वेश्‍यावृति गरे । तिनीहरूले त्यहाँ वेश्याको काम गरे । त्यहाँ तिनीहरूका स्‍तन मिचिए र तिनीहरूको कुमारी अवस्‍थाको मुन्टाहरू खेलाइए ।
They played the prostitute in Egypt. They played the prostitute in their youth. Their breasts were fondled there, and their youthful nipples were caressed there.
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 ।
Their names were Oholah the elder, and Oholibah her sister. They became mine, and they bore sons and daughters. As for their names, Samaria is Oholah, and Jerusalem Oholibah.
5 तर मेरै भएको बेलामा पनि ओहोलाले वेश्‍यावृत्ति गरी । आफ्‍ना प्रेमी, प्रभावशाली अश्‍शूरीहरूसित त्‍यो मोहित भई,
“Oholah played the prostitute when she was mine. She doted on her lovers, on the Assyrians her neighbors,
6 नीलो वस्‍त्र लाउने गभर्नर र तिनका अधिकारीहरू, जो बलिया र सुन्दर थिए, ती सबै जना घोडा चढ्ने मानिसहरू थिए ।
who were clothed with blue—governors and rulers, all of them desirable young men, 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 ।
She gave herself as a prostitute to them, all of them the choicest men of Assyria. She defiled herself with the idols of whomever she lusted after.
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 ।
She hasn’t left her prostitution since leaving Egypt; for in her youth they lay with her. They caressed her youthful nipples and they poured out their prostitution on her.
9 यसकारण त्यसका प्रेमीहरूका हातमा अर्थात् अश्‍शूरीहरूका हातमा मैले त्यसलाई सुम्पिदिएँ, जोसँग त्यो मोहित भई ।
“Therefore I delivered her into the hand of her lovers, into the hand of the Assyrians on whom she doted.
10 तिनीहरूले त्यसलाई नाङ्गो पारे, त्यसका छोराछोरीलाई लगे, त्यसलाई तरवारले मारे र अरू स्‍त्रीहरूका माझमा त्यो कुख्‍यात भई । यसरी तिनीहरूले त्यसलाई दण्ड दिए ।
These uncovered her nakedness. They took her sons and her daughters, and they killed her with the sword. She became a byword among women; for they executed judgments on her.
11 त्‍यसकी बहिनी ओहोलिबाले त्‍यो कुरा देखी, तर त्‍यो झन् बढी कामुक भई र आफ्‍नी दिदीभन्‍दा पनि बढी वेश्‍यावृत्तिको काम गर्न लागी ।
“Her sister Oholibah saw this, yet she was more corrupt in her lusting than she, and in her prostitution which was more depraved than the prostitution 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 ।
She lusted after the Assyrians, governors and rulers—her neighbors, clothed most gorgeously, horsemen riding on horses, all of them desirable young men.
13 त्यसले आफैलाई अशुद्ध पारेकी मैले देखें । ती दुवै जना दिदीबहिनी उस्‍तै थिए ।
I saw that she was defiled. They both went the same way.
14 त्‍यसपछि त्‍यसले आफ्‍नो वेश्‍यावृत्ति झन्‌ बढाई । भित्तामा कोरिएका मानिसहरू, भित्तामा रातो रङ्गले पेन्‍ट गरेर बनाइएका कल्‍दीहरूका चित्रहरू त्यसले देखी,
“She increased her prostitution; for she saw men portrayed on the wall, the images of the Kasdim portrayed with red,
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 ।
dressed with belts on their waists, with flowing turbans on their heads, all of them looking like princes, after the likeness of the Babylonians in Kasdim, the land of their birth.
16 त्‍यसले उनीहरूलाई देख्‍ने बित्तिकै उनीहरूका निम्‍ति त्‍यो कामुक भई । यसैले कल्‍दिया देशमा उनीहरूकहाँ त्‍यसले दूतहरू पठाई ।
As soon as she saw them, she lusted after them and sent messengers to them into Kasdimah.
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 ।
The Babylonians came to her into the bed of love, and they defiled her with their prostitution. She was polluted with them, and her soul was alienated 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 ।
So she uncovered her prostitution and uncovered her nakedness. Then my soul was alienated from her, just like my soul was alienated from her sister.
19 तब मिश्रदेशमा त्‍यो वेश्या हुँदाको, आफ्‍ना युवावस्‍थाका समयलाई सम्‍झेर त्‍यसले आफ्‍नो वेश्‍यावृत्ति झन्‌ बढाई ।
Yet she multiplied her prostitution, remembering the days of her youth, in which she had played the prostitute in the land of Egypt.
20 यसरी त्‍यो आफ्‍ना प्रेमीहरूसित कामुक भई, जसका गुताङ्गहरू गधाहरूका जस्‍ता थिए, अनि जसका वीर्य घोडाहरूका झैं निस्‍कन्‍थ्‍यो ।
She lusted after their lovers, whose flesh is as the flesh of donkeys, and whose issue is like the issue of horses.
21 मिश्रीहरूले तेरा स्‍तनका मुन्‍टाहरू खेलाउँदा र तेरा जवानीका स्‍तनहरू मिच्‍दा, तैंले आफ्‍ना जवानीका लज्‍जापूर्ण कामहरू यसरी नै गरिस् ।
Thus you called to memory the lewdness of your youth, in the caressing of your nipples by the Egyptians because of your 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, Oholibah, the Lord GOD says: ‘Behold, I will raise up your lovers against you, from whom your soul is alienated, and I will bring them against you on 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 Babylonians and all the Kasdim, Pekod, Shoa, Koa, and all the Assyrians with them; all of them desirable young men, governors and rulers, princes and men of renown, all of them riding on horses.
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 ।
They will come against you with weapons, chariots, and wagons, and with a company of peoples. They will set themselves against you with buckler, shield, and helmet all around. I will commit the judgment to them, and they will judge you according to 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 ।
I will set my jealousy against you, and they will deal with you in fury. They will take away your nose and your ears. Your remnant will fall by the sword. They will take your sons and your daughters; and the rest of you will be devoured by the fire.
26 उनीहरूले तेरा वस्‍त्र उतारेर तँलाई नाङ्गै बनाउनेछन्, र तेरा सबै गहना लैजानेछन्‌ ।
They will also strip you of your clothes and take away your beautiful 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 I will make your lewdness to cease from you, and remove your prostitution from the land of Egypt, so that you will not lift up your eyes to them, nor remember Egypt 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 the Lord GOD says: ‘Behold, I will deliver you into the hand of them whom you hate, into the hand of them from whom your soul is alienated.
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 ।
They will deal with you in hatred, and will take away all your labor, and will leave you naked and bare. The nakedness of your prostitution will be uncovered, both your lewdness and your prostitution.
30 वेश्‍याले झैं तैंले काम गरेको, जातिहरूसँग कामुक भएको, उनीहरूका मूर्तिहरूद्वारा तँ अशुद्ध भएको हुनाले यी कुराहरू तँलाई हुनेछेन् ।
These things will be done to you because you have played the prostitute after the nations, and because you are polluted with their idols.
31 तँ आफ्‍नी दिदीकै चालमा हिंडेकी छेस्‌, यसैले त्‍यसको दण्‍डको कचौरा म तेरो हातमा दिनेछु ।'
You have walked in the way of your sister; therefore I will give her cup into your 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 ।
“The Lord GOD says: ‘You will drink of your sister’s cup, which is deep and large. You will be ridiculed and held in derision. It contains much.
33 मतवालापन र दुःखले, त्रास र विनाशको कचौराले तँ पूर्ण हुनेछेस्‌ । तेरी दिदी सामरियाको कचौरा ।
You will be filled with drunkenness and sorrow, with the cup of astonishment and desolation, with the cup of your 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 ।'
You will even drink it and drain it out. You will gnaw the broken pieces of it, and will tear your breasts; for I have spoken it,’ says the Lord GOD.
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 the Lord GOD says: ‘Because you have forgotten me and cast me behind your back, therefore you also bear your lewdness and your prostitution.’”
36 परमप्रभुले मलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “ए मानिसको छोरो, के तैंले ओहोला र ओहोलिबाको न्‍याय गर्नेछस्? त्‍यसैले तिनीहरूका घृणित कामहरूका तिनीहरूलाई विरोध गर,
The LORD said moreover to me: “Son of man, will you judge Oholah and Oholibah? Then declare to 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 in their hands. They have committed adultery with their idols. They have also caused their sons, whom they bore to me, to pass through the fire to 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 ।
Moreover this they have done to me: they have defiled my sanctuary in the same day, and have profaned my Sabbaths.
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 ।
For when they had slain their children to their idols, then they came the same day into my sanctuary to profane it; and behold, they have done this in the middle of my 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 ।
“Furthermore you sisters have sent for men who come from far away, to whom a messenger was sent, and behold, they came; for whom you washed yourself, painted your eyes, decorated yourself with ornaments,
41 त्यहाँ तँ एउटा सुन्‍दर पलङ्गमा बसिस्, र त्‍यसको अगाडि सजाइएको टेबलमा मेरो धूप र मेरो तेल राखिस्‌ ।
and sat on a stately bed, with a table prepared before it, whereupon you set my incense and my oil.
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 voice of a multitude being at ease was with her. With men of the common sort were brought drunkards from the wilderness; and they put bracelets on their hands, and beautiful crowns on their heads.
43 तब व्‍भिचारले दिक्‍क भएकी स्‍त्रीको विषयमा मैले यसो भनें, 'अब उनीहरू त्‍यससँग यौनका अनैतिक काम गर्नेछन्, र त्यसले उनीहरूसँग गर्नेछे ।’
Then I said of her who was old in adulteries, ‘Now they will play the prostitute with her, and she with them.’
44 जसरी मानिसहरू एउटी वेश्याकहाँ जान्‍छन् त्‍यसरी उनीहरू त्‍यसकहाँ गए र त्‍यससँग सुते । यसरी उनीहरू ती अनैतिक स्‍त्रीहरू, ओहोला र ओहोलिबासित सुते ।
They went in to her, as they go in to a prostitute. So they went in to Oholah and to 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 ।
Righteous men will judge them with the judgment of adulteresses and with the judgment of women who shed blood, because they are adulteresses, and blood is in their hands.
46 यसैले परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर यसो भन्‍नुहुन्‍छः म तिनीहरूका विरुद्धमा एउटा भीड खडा गर्नेछु र तिनीहरूलाई त्रास र लूटमा सुम्‍पिदिनेछु ।
“For the Lord GOD says: ‘I will bring up a mob against them, and will give them to be tossed back and forth and robbed.
47 तब त्यो भीडले तिनीहरूलाई ढुङ्गाले हान्‍नेछन्, र उनीहरूका तरवारले तिनीहरूलाई खत्तम पार्नेछन् । तिनीहरूका छोराछोरीलाई उनीहरूले मार्नेछन्‌ र तिनीहरूका घरहरू जलाउनेछन्‌ ।
The company will stone them with stones and dispatch them with their swords. They will kill their sons and their daughters, and burn up their houses with fire.
48 किनकि देशबाट लज्‍जास्‍पद व्‍यवहारलाई म खतम गर्नेछु, र सबै स्‍त्रीलाई अनुशासनमा ल्याउनेछु ताकि तिनीहरू फेरि वेश्याको जस्तो काम नगरून् ।
“‘Thus I will cause lewdness to cease out of the land, that all women may be taught not to be lewd like you.
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 ।
They will recompense your lewdness on you, and you will bear the sins of your idols. Then you will know that I am the Lord GOD.’”
