< इजकिएल 24 >
1 नवौं वर्षको दशौं महिनाको र महिनको दशौं दिनमा परमप्रभुको वचन यसो भनेर मकहाँ आयो,
And the word of the Lord came to me, in the ninth year, in the tenth month, on the tenth [day] of the month, saying,
2 “ए मानिसको छोरो, आफ्नो निम्ति आजको दिन, आजकै मिति लेख्, किनकि आजकै दिन बेबिलोनको राजाले यरूशलेमलाई घेरा हालेको छ ।
Son of man, write for yourself daily from this day, on which the king of Babylon set himself against Jerusalem, [even] from this day.
3 यस विद्रोही घरानाको विरुद्धमा यो उपदेश, यो दृष्टान्त तिनीहरू भन्। तिनीहरूलाई यसो भन्, 'परमप्रभु परमेश्वर यसो भन्नुहुन्छः पकाउने भाँडो राख् । त्यसलाई राख्, र त्यसमा पानी हाल् ।
And speak a parable to the provoking house, and you shall say to them, Thus says the Lord; Set on the caldron, and pour water into it:
4 त्यसभित्र भएका खानेकुरा, हरेक असल टुक्रा— तिघ्रा र ह्याकुलो जम्मा गर र त्यसलाई असल हाडहरूले भर् ।
and put the pieces into it, every prime piece, the leg and shoulder taken off from the bones,
5 बगालको सबभन्दा असल पशु छान्, त्यसमुनि हाडको थुप्रो लगा । त्यसलाई उमाल्ने ठाउँमा ल्या र त्यसमा हाडहरू पका ।
[which are] taken from choice cattle, and burn the bones under them: her bones are boiled and cooked in the midst of her.
6 यसकारण परमप्रभु परमेश्वर यसो भन्नुहुन्छः यो रगतको सहरलाई धिक्कार! त्यो खिया लागेको भाँडालाई र त्यसबाट त्यो खिया जानेछैन! त्यसमा भएका टुक्राबाट नछानिकन एक-एक गर्दै निकाल् ।
Therefore thus says the Lord; O bloody city, the caldron in which there is scum, and the scum has not gone out of, she has brought it forth piece by piece, no lot has fallen upon it.
7 किनकि त्यसको रगत त्यसकै बिचमा छ । त्यसले त्यो रगत चिल्लो चट्टानमा बगाई । धूलाले ढाक्नलाई त्यसले त्यो रगत भूइँमा पोखाईन,
For her blood is in the midst of her; I have set it upon a smooth rock: I have not poured it out upon the earth, so that the earth should cover it;
8 यसैले त्यसले साटो लिने क्रोध ल्याउँछ । त्यसको रगत ढाक्न नसकियोस् भनेर मैले चिल्लो चट्टानमा त्यो पोखाइन ।
that my wrath should come up for complete vengeance to be taken: I set her blood upon a smooth rock, so as not to cover it.
9 यसैकारण परमप्रभु परमेश्वर यसो भन्नुहुन्छः त्यस रगतको सहरलाई धिक्कार । म दाउराको थुप्रोलाई पनि बढाउनेछु ।
Therefore thus says the Lord, I will also make the firebrand great,
10 दाउरा थुपार् र आगो सल्का । मासु राम्ररी पका, र मसला हाल र हाडहरू डड्न दे ।
and I will multiply the wood, and kindle the fire, that the flesh may be consumed, and the liquor boiled away;
11 त्यसपछि त्यसलाई तताउन र तामालाई तताएर आगोजस्तै बनाउन भाँडो खाली गरेर भुङ्ग्रोमाथि राख्, ताकि त्यसभित्र भएको अशुद्धता पग्लोस्, र त्यसको थेग्रो डढेर जाओस् ।’
and that [it] may stand upon the coals, that her brass may be thoroughly heated, and be melted in the midst of her filthiness, and her scum may be consumed,
12 परिश्रमको कारणलर त्यो थकित भएकी छे, तर त्यसको बाक्लो थेग्रो आगोले पनि गएन ।
and her abundant scum may not come forth of her.
13 तेरो लाजमर्दो व्यवहार तेरो अशुद्धताभित्र छ । किनभने मैले त तँलाई शुद्ध गर्ने कोशिश गरें, तर तेरो अशुद्धताबाट तँ अझै शुद्ध भइनस् । जबसम्म म आफ्नो क्रोध तेरो विरुद्धमा पोखाएर सन्तुष्ट हुन्नँ, तबसम्म तँ फेरि शुद्ध हुनेछैनस् ।
Her scum shall become shameful, because you did defile yourself: and what if you shall be purged no more until I have accomplished my wrath?
14 म परमप्रभुले यो घोषणा गरेको हुँ, र म यो गर्नेछु । म पछि हट्नेछैनँ, न त म त्यसबाट आराम नै गर्नेछु । तेरा चाल र तेरा कामहरूले तिनीहरूले तेरो न्याय गर्नेछन्— यो परमप्रभु परमेश्वरको घोषणा हो ।
I the Lord have spoken; and it shall come, and I will do [it]; I will not delay, neither will I have any mercy: I will judge you, says the Lord, according to your ways, and according to your devices: therefore will I judge you according to your bloodshed, and according to your devices will I judge you, you unclean, notorious, and abundantly provoking one.
15 त्यसपछि परमप्रभुको वचन यसो भनेर मकहाँ आयोः
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
16 “ए मानिसको छोरो, हेर्, तेरो आँखाका इच्छालाई म विपतिबाट हटाउँदैछु, तर तैंले शोक गर्नुहुँदैन न त रुनु हुन्छ, र तेरा आँखाबाट आँसु झर्नुहुँदैन ।
Son of man, behold I take from you the desire of your eyes by violence: you shall not lament, neither shall you weep.
17 तैंले चूपचाप सुस्केरा हाल्नुपर्छ । मृतकको अन्तेष्टि नगर् । आफ्ना फेटा आफ्नो टाउकोमा बाँध र आफ्ना जुत्ता आफ्ना खुट्टामा लगा, तर आफ्नो मुखका रौं नढाक् वा आफ्ना पत्नीको मृत्युमा शोक गर्ने मानिसहरूका रोटी नखा ।”
You shall groan for blood, and have mourning upon your loins; your hair shall not be braided upon you, and your sandals [shall be] on your feet; you shall in no wise be comforted by their lips, and you shall not eat the bread of men.
18 यसैले बिहानै मैले यो कुरा मानिसहरूलाई भनें, र त्यही बेलुकी मेरी पत्नीको मृत्यु भयो । भोलिपल्ट बिहान मलाई जे गर्ने आज्ञा दिइएको थियो, मैले त्यही गरें ।
And I spoke to the people in the morning, as he commanded me in the evening, and I did in the morning as it was commanded me.
19 मानिसहरूले मलाई सोधे, “यी कुराहरू अर्थात्, तपाईंले गरेका कुराहरूको अर्थ के हो, हामीलाई भन्नुहुन्न?”
And the people said to me, Will you not tell us what these things are that you do?
20 यसैले मैले तिनीहरूलाई भनें, “परमप्रभुको वचन यसो भनेर मकहाँ आयो,
Then I said to them, The word of the Lord came to me, saying,
21 ‘इस्राएलको घरानालाई यसो भन्: परमप्रभु परमेश्वर यसो भन्नुहुन्छः हेर्, म आफ्नो पवित्रस्थान—तिमीहरूका शक्तिको गर्व, तिमीहरूका आँखाको खुसी, र तिमीहरूका प्राणको इच्छालाई अपवित्र तुल्याउनेछु, र तिमीहरूले छोडिराखेका तिमीहरूका छोराछोरी तरवारले मारिनेछन् ।
Say to the house of Israel, Thus says the Lord; Behold, I [will] profane my sanctuary, the boast of your strength, the desire of your eyes, and for which your souls are concerned; and your sons and your daughters, whom you have left, shall fall by the sword.
22 तब मैले गरेझैं तिमीहरूले पनि गर्नेछौः तिमीहरूले आफ्नो अनुहारका रौं छोप्नेछैनौ, न त शोक गर्ने मानिसहरूका रोटी खानेछौ ।
And you shall do as I have done: you shall not be comforted at their mouth, and you shall not eat the bread of men.
23 त्यसको साटोमा, तिमीहरूका फेटा तिमीहरूका टाउकामा र तिमीहरूका जुत्ता तिमीहरूका खुट्टामा हुनेछन् । तिमीहरूले शोक गर्नेछैनौ न त रुनेछौ, किनकि तिमीहरू आफ्ना पापहरूको कारणले पग्लेर जानेछौ, र हरेक मानिसले आफ्ना भाइको निम्ति सुस्केरा हाल्नेछ ।
And your hair [shall be] upon your head, and your shoes on your feet: neither shall you at all lament or weep; but you shall pine away in your iniquities, and shall comfort every one his brother.
24 यसरी इजकिएलचाहिं तिमीहरूका निम्ति एउटा चिन्ह हुनेछ । उसले जे गरेको छ ती हरेक कुरा तिमीहरूले पनि गर्नेछौ । तब म नै परमप्रभु परमेश्वर हुँ भनी तिमीहरूले जान्नेछौ' ।”
And Jezekiel shall be for a sign to you: according to all that I have done shall you do, when these things shall come; and you shall know that I am the Lord.
25 “तर ए मानिसको छोरो, तिनीहरूका आनन्द, गर्व, तिनेहरूले हेर्ने र इच्छा गर्ने तिनीहरूका मन्दिरलाई मैले कब्जा गरेको दिनमा— र मैले तिनीहरूका छोराछोरी लिएर जाँदा—
And you, son of man, [shall it] not [be] in the day when I take their strength from them, the pride of their boasting, the desires of their eyes, and the pride of their soul, their sons and their daughters,
26 त्यस दिनमा तँलाई समाचार दिनलाई एक जना शरणार्थी तँकहाँ आउनेछ ।
that in that day he that escapes shall come to you, to tell [it] you in your ears?
27 त्यो दिनमा त्यो शरणार्थीसँग तैंले मुख खोल्नेछस् र तँ बोल्नेछस्— तँ फेरि चूपचाप रहनेछैनस् । तँ तिनीहरूका निम्ति एउटा चिन्ह हुनेछस्, ताकि तिनीहरूले म नै परमप्रभु हुँ भनी जान्नेछन् ।”
In that day your mouth shall be opened to him that escapes; you shall speak, and shall be no longer dumb: and you shall be for a sign to them, and they shall know that I am the Lord.
