इजकिएल 31
1 एघारौं वर्षको तेस्रो महिनाको पहिलो दिनमा परमप्रभुको वचन यसो भनेर मकहाँ आयो,
And it came to pass in the eleventh year, in the third month, in the first day of the month, that the word of YHWH came unto me, saying,
2 “ए मानिसको छोरा, मिश्रदेशको राजा फारो, र त्यसको वरिपरि भएका धेरै भीडलाई यसो भन्, ‘तेरो महान्तामा, तँ कोजस्तो छस्?
Son of man, speak unto Pharaoh king of Egypt, and to his multitude; Whom art thou like in thy greatness?
3 हेर्! लेबनानमा अश्शूर, सुन्दर हाँगाहरू भएको लेबनानको एउटा देवदारु थियो, जसले वनलाई छाया दियो, र त्यो उचाइमा सबैभन्दा अग्लो थियो, र त्यसका हाँगाहरू टुप्पोसम्म पुगेका थिए ।
Behold, the Assyrian was a cedar in Lebanon with fair branches, and with a shadowing shroud, and of an high stature; and his top was among the thick boughs.
4 धेरै पानीले त्यसलाई अग्लो बनायो । गहिरो पानीले त्यो विशाल भयो । त्यसको वरिपरिबाट नदीहरू बगे, र त्यसका धारहरू मैदानका सारा रूखहरूकहाँ फैलिए ।
The waters made him great, the deep set him up on high with her rivers running round about his plants, and sent out her little rivers unto all the trees of the field.
5 मैदानका अरू सबै रूखभन्दा त्यसको उचाइ धेरै थियो, र त्यसका हाँगाहरू धेरै भए । पानी प्रशस्त भएको कारणले त्यसका हाँगाहरू लामा-लामा भए ।
Therefore his height was exalted above all the trees of the field, and his boughs were multiplied, and his branches became long because of the multitude of waters, when he shot forth.
6 आकाशका हरेक चराले त्यसका हाँगाहरूमा गुँड बनाए, र त्यसका शितल छहारीमा जमिनका सारा प्रानीले बच्चा जन्माए । धेरै जातिहरूका सबैले त्यसको छायामुनि बास गरे ।
All the fowls of heaven made their nests in his boughs, and under his branches did all the beasts of the field bring forth their young, and under his shadow dwelt all great nations.
7 त्यसको महान्तामा त्यो सुन्दर थियो र त्यसका हाँगाहरू लामा-लामा थिए, किनकि त्यसका जराहरू प्रशस्त पानीमा थिए ।
Thus was he fair in his greatness, in the length of his branches: for his root was by great waters.
8 परमेश्वरका बगैंचाका देवदारुहरू पनि त्योबराबर थिएनन् । कुनै पनि सल्लाको रूखका हाँगाहरू त्यसकोझैं थिएनन्, र चिनारको रूख त्यसका हाँगाहरूसित दाँज्न सकिंदैनथ्यो । परमेश्वरको बगैंचामा त्यसको सुन्दरतासँग मेल गर्न सकिने कुनै अर्को रूख थिएन ।
The cedars in the garden of Elohim could not hide him: the fir trees were not like his boughs, and the chestnut trees were not like his branches; nor any tree in the garden of Elohim was like unto him in his beauty.
9 मैले त्यसका धेरै हाँगासित त्यसलाई सुन्दर बनाएँ र परमेश्वरको बगैंचामा भएका अदनका सबै रूखले त्यसको डाह गर्थे ।
I have made him fair by the multitude of his branches: so that all the trees of Eden, that were in the garden of Elohim, envied him.
10 यसैकारण परमप्रभु परमेश्वर यस्तो भन्नुहुन्छ: त्यो उचाइमा अग्लो भएको कारण, र त्यसको टुप्पो त्यसका हाँगाहरूका बिचमा भएको हुनाले, आफ्नो उचाइको कारण त्यो घमण्डले फुल्यो ।
Therefore thus saith the Sovereign YHWH; Because thou hast lifted up thyself in height, and he hath shot up his top among the thick boughs, and his heart is lifted up in his height;
11 त्यसको दुष्टताअनुसार त्यसलाई व्यवहार गरियोस् भनेर मैले त्यसलाई जातिहरूका बिचमा एउटा शक्तिशाली व्यक्तिको हातमा दिएको छु । मैले त्यसलाई बाहिर फालेको छु ।
I have therefore delivered him into the hand of the el of the heathen; he shall surely deal with him: I have driven him out for his wickedness.
12 सारा जातिहरूका बिचमा आतङ्क ल्याउने विदेशीहरूले त्यसलाई काटेर ढाले र मर्नलाई छोडिदिए । पहाडहरू र सबै बेंसीतिर त्यसका हाँगाहरू खसे, र त्यसका ठुला-ठुला हाँगाहरू जमिनका खोल्साहरूमा भाँचिएर झरे । तब पृथ्वीका सारा जातिहरू त्यसको छायामुनिबाट बाहिर निस्के र तिनीहरू त्यसबाट टाढा गए ।
And strangers, the terrible of the nations, have cut him off, and have left him: upon the mountains and in all the valleys his branches are fallen, and his boughs are broken by all the rivers of the land; and all the people of the earth are gone down from his shadow, and have left him.
13 आकाशका सबै चरा त्यो ढलेको रूखको मुढोमाथि बसे, र जमिनका सबै पशु त्यसका हाँगाहरू भएको ठाउँमा आए ।
Upon his ruin shall all the fowls of the heaven remain, and all the beasts of the field shall be upon his branches:
14 प्रशस्त पानीको छेउको त्यो अग्लो रूखभन्दा धेरै उचाइमा अरू कुनै रूखहरू नहून्, र त्यो उचाइसम्म पुग्नेगरी अरू कुनै रूख नबढून् भनेर यस्तो भयो । मृत्युमा जान, जमिनमा तल जान, मानिसका छोरा-छोरीध्ये खाडलमुनि जानेहरूसित जानलाई ती सबैलाई नियुक्त गरिएका छन् ।
To the end that none of all the trees by the waters exalt themselves for their height, neither shoot up their top among the thick boughs, neither their trees stand up in their height, all that drink water: for they are all delivered unto death, to the nether parts of the earth, in the midst of the children of men, with them that go down to the pit.
15 परमप्रभु परमेश्वर यस्तो भन्नुहुन्छ: त्यो देवदारु चिहानमा गएको दिन, मैले पृथ्वीमा शोक ल्याएँ । मैले त्यसमाथि गहिरो पानीले ढाकें, र मैले समुद्रको पानी थुनें । मैले विशाल पानीलाई रोकें, र त्यसको कारण लेबनानमाथि मैले शोक ल्याएँ । यसैले त्यसको कारणले मैदानका सबै रूखले विलाप गरे । (Sheol h7585)
Thus saith the Sovereign YHWH; In the day when he went down to the grave I caused a mourning: I covered the deep for him, and I restrained the floods thereof, and the great waters were stayed: and I caused Lebanon to mourn for him, and all the trees of the field fainted for him. (Sheol h7585)
16 मैले त्यसलाई खाडलमा जानेहरूसँगै चिहानमा फ्याँकेपछि, त्यसको पतनको आवाजद्वारा मैले जातिहरूमा डर ल्याएँ । यसैले मैले पृथ्वीका तल्लो भागहरूमा अदनका सबै रूखलाई सान्त्वना दिएँ । यी लेबनानका चुनिएका र उत्कृष्ट रूखहरू थिए। ती प्रशस्त पानी पिएका रूखहरू थिए । (Sheol h7585)
I made the nations to shake at the sound of his fall, when I cast him down to hell with them that descend into the pit: and all the trees of Eden, the choice and best of Lebanon, all that drink water, shall be comforted in the nether parts of the earth. (Sheol h7585)
17 किनकि तिनीहरू त्योसँगै तरवारद्वारा मारिएकाहरूकहाँ तल चिहानमा गए । यी त्यसका बलिया पाखुरा, अर्थात् त्यसका छायामुनि बसेका जातिहरू थिए । (Sheol h7585)
They also went down into hell with him unto them that be slain with the sword; and they that were his arm, that dwelt under his shadow in the midst of the heathen. (Sheol h7585)
18 अदनको कुन चाहिं रूख महिमा र महान्तामा तेरो बराबर थियो र? किनकि अदनका रूखहरूसँगै तँ खतना नभएकाहरूका बिचमा पृथ्वीका तल्ला भागहरूमा खसालिनेछस् । तरवारद्वारा मारिएकाहरूसँगै तँ रहनेछस् ।’ यो फारो र त्यसका सबै भीड हो, यो परमप्रभु परमेश्वरको घोषणा गर्नुहुन्छ ।”
To whom art thou thus like in glory and in greatness among the trees of Eden? yet shalt thou be brought down with the trees of Eden unto the nether parts of the earth: thou shalt lie in the midst of the uncircumcised with them that be slain by the sword. This is Pharaoh and all his multitude, saith the Sovereign YHWH.
