1 “तर ए मानिसको छोरो, आफ्नो निम्ति एउटा इँट लिएर त्यो तेरो सामु राख् । त्यसपछि त्यसमाथि यरूशलेमको नक्सा बना ।
And you, son of man, take a back and put it before you and on it make a picture of a town, even Jerusalem.
2 तब त्यसका चारैतिर घेरा हाल्, र त्यसको विरुद्धमा किल्लाहरू बना । त्यसको वरिपरि घेरा-मचान खडा गर्, र त्सको वरिपरि छाउनी बना । त्यसलाई आक्रमण गरी भत्काउने मूढाहरू राख् ।
And make an attack on it, shutting it in, building strong places against it, and making high an earthwork against it; and put up tents against it, placing engines all round it for smashing down its walls.
3 तब आफ्नो निम्ति एउटा फलामको तावा लि र सहर र तेरो बिचमा एउटा फलामको पर्खालझैं त्यो खडा गर् र तेरो मुहार सहरतिर फर्का, किनकि त्यो घेरा लाएको अवस्थामा हुनेछ, र तैंले त्यसलाई घेरा हाल्नुपर्छ । इस्राएलका घरानाको निम्ति यो एउटा चिन्ह हुनेछ ।
And take a flat iron plate, and put it for a wall of iron between you and the town: and let your face be turned to it, and it will be shut in and you will make an attack on it. This will be a sign to the children of Israel.
4 त्यसपछि तँ देब्रेतिर कोल्टे परेर सुत्, र इस्राएलका घरानाको पाप त्यसमाथि राख् । जति समयसम्म तँ यसरी इस्राएलको घरानाको विरुद्धमा कोल्टो परिरहन्छस्, त्यति दिनसम्म तैंले तिनीहरूको पाप बोक्नेछस् ।
Then, stretching yourself out on your left side, take the sin of the children of Israel on yourself: for as long as you are stretched out, so long will the sin of the children of Israel be on you.
5 तिनीहरूको पापका वर्षको संख्याकै बराबर तेरो लागि दिनको संख्या तोकेको छुः तिन सय नब्बे दिन । यसरी तैंले इस्राएलका घरानाको पाप बोक्नेछस् ।
For I have had the years of their sin measured for you by a number of days, even three hundred and ninety days: and you will take on yourself the sin of the children of Israel.
6 जब तैंले ती दिन पुरा गर्नेछन्, तब दोस्रो पटक दाहिनेतिर कोल्टे पर् र किनकि तैंले चालिस दिनसम्म यहूदाका घरानाको पाप बोक्नेछस् । मैले तँलाई प्रत्येक वर्षको लागि एक दिन तोकेको छु ।
And when these days are ended, turning on your right side, you are to take on yourself the sin of the children of Judah: forty days, a day for a year, I have had it fixed for you.
7 तेरो अनुहार यरूशलेमको घेरातर्फ फर्काएर राख् र पाखुरा नाङ्गै राखेर त्यस सहरको विरुद्धमा अगमवाणी भन् ।
And let your face be turned to where Jerusalem is shut in, with your arm uncovered, and be a prophet against it.
8 किनभने हेर्! म तँलाई डोरीहरूले कसी राख्नेछु, यसरी तेरा घेराको दिन समाप्त नहोउञ्जेल तँ यताउता फर्कन सक्नेछैनस् ।
And see, I will put bands on you; and you will be stretched out without turning from one side to the other till the days of your attack are ended.
9 त्यसपछि गहूँ, जौ, सिमी, दाल, कोदो र कठिया लिएर एउटै भाँडामा हालेर तँ कोल्टे परेर सुत्ने दिनअनुसार तेरो लागि रोटी पका । तिन सय नब्बे दिनसम्म तैंले त्यो खानेछस् ।
And take for yourself wheat and barley and different sorts of grain, and put them in one vessel and make bread for yourself from them; all the days when you are stretched on your side it will be your food.
10 तैंले खाने भोजनचाहिं तौलअनुसार हुनेछ, हरेक दिन बिस शेकेल दिनको र तोकिएको बेलामा तैंले त्यो खानेछस् ।
And you are to take your food by weight, twenty shekels a day: you are to take it at regular times.
11 अनि तैंले एक माना पानी पिउनेछस्, त्यो तैंले तोकिएको तोकिएको बेलामा पिउनेछस् ।
And you are to take water by measure, the sixth part of a hin: you are to take it at regular times.
12 जौका केकजस्तै बनाएर तैंले खानेछस्, तर तैंले मानिसहरूकै आँखाको सामुन्ने मानिसको दिसालाई दाउराको रूपमा प्रयोग गरेर त्यो पकाउनेछस् ।”
And let your food be barley cakes, cooking it before their eyes with the waste which comes out of a man.
13 किनकि परमप्रभु भन्नुहुन्छ, “यसको अर्थ यही हो कि इस्राएलीहरूलाई जुन-जुन जातिकहाँ म धपाउनेछु, उनीहरूका बिचमा तिनीहरूले यसरी नै दूषित भोजन खानेछन् ।”
And the Lord said, Even so the children of Israel will have unclean bread for their food among the nations where I am driving them.
14 तर मैले भनें, “धिक्कार, हे परमप्रभु परमेश्वर, म कहिले पनि अशुद्ध भएको छैनँ । युवावस्थादेखि अहिलेसम्म कहिल्यै आफै मरेको थोक अथवा पशुले मारेको कुरा वा दुषित मासु मैले कहिलै खाएको छैनँ ।”
Then I said, Ah, Lord! see, my soul has never been unclean, and I have never taken as my food anything which has come to a natural death or has been broken by beasts, from the time when I was young even till now; no disgusting flesh has ever come into my mouth.
15 यसैले उहाँले मलाई भन्नुभयो, “हेर, म तँलाई मानिसहरूका दिसाको सट्टा गोबर प्रयोग गरेर तेरो रोटी पकाउन दिनेछु, यसैले तैंले त्यसमाथि आफ्नो रोटी पकाउन सक्छस् ।
Then he said to me, See, I have given you cow's waste in place of man's waste, and you will make your bread ready on it.
16 उहाँले मलाई यो पनि भन्नुभयो, “ए मानिसको छोरो, हेर, म यरूशलेमबाट अन्नको मूल बन्द गरिदिनेछु, र तिनीहरूले जोखी-जोखीकन चिन्तित भई तिनीहरूले रोटी खानेछन्, र जोखी-जोखीकन डराउँदै पानी पिउनेछन् ।
And he said to me, Son of man, see, I will take away from Jerusalem her necessary bread: they will take their bread by weight and with care, measuring out their drinking-water with fear and wonder:
17 किनकि तिनीहरूमा रोटी र पानीको अभाव हुनेछ, हरेक मानिसले आफ्नो दाजुभाइलाई देख्दा हताश हुनेछ र आफ्नो अधर्मले गर्दा तिनीहरू सुक्दैजानेछन् ।'
So that they may be in need of bread and water and be wondering at one another, wasting away in their sin.
