इजकिएल 9
1 तब उहाँले ठुलो सोरमा कराएर यसो भन्नुभएको मैले सुनें, “रक्षकहरू हरेकले आफ्ना हातमा नष्ट गर्ने हतियार लिएर सहरमा आऊन् ।”
Then he cried in mine ears with a loud voice, saying, Cause ye them that have charge over the city to draw near, every man with his destroying weapon in his hand.
2 तब हेर, छ जना मानिसहरू हरेकले आ-आफ्नो हातमा हत्या गर्ने हतियार लिएर उत्तरतिर फर्केको माथिल्लो ढोकाबाट आए । तिनीहरूका माझमा सूती कपडा लगाएका र कलम भिरेका एक जना मानिस थिए । यसरी तिनीहरू भित्र गए र काँसाको वेदीको छेउमा खडा भए ।
And behold, six men came from the way of the upper gate, which lieth toward the north, every man with his slaughter weapon in his hand; and one man in the midst of them clothed in linen, with a writer’s inkhorn by his side. And they went in, and stood beside the brazen altar.
3 तब इस्राएलका परमेश्वरको महिमाचाहिं करूबहरूदेखि मास्तिर हटेर मन्दिरको सँघारमा पुगिसकेको थियो । तब परमप्रभुले त्यो सूती कपडा लगाएको र कलम भिरेको मानिसलाई आफ्नो छेउमा बोलाउनुभयो ।
And the glory of the God of Israel was gone up from the cherub, whereupon it was, to the threshold of the house: and he called to the man clothed in linen, who had the writer’s inkhorn by his side.
4 परमप्रभुले तिनलाई भन्नुभयो, “सहरको बिचबाट— यरूशलेमको बिचबाट भएर जा र सहरमा गरिएका सबै घिनलाग्दा कामहरू देखेर शोक र विलाप गर्ने सबै मानिसहरूका निदारहरूमा एउटा चिन्ह लगा ।”
And Jehovah said unto him, Go through the midst of the city, through the midst of Jerusalem, and set a mark upon the foreheads of the men that sigh and that cry over all the abominations that are done in the midst thereof.
5 मैले सुनिरहँदा उहाँले अरूलाई भन्नुभयो, “उसको पछिपछि सहरभरि जाओ र मार । तिमीहरूका आँखामा दया आउन नदेओ, र नछोड,
And to the others he said in my hearing, Go ye through the city after him, and smite: let not your eye spare, neither have ye pity;
6 वृद्ध मानिस, जवान मानिस, कन्या, साना बालकहरू र स्त्रीहरू । ती सबैलाई मार! तर निधारमा त्यो चिन्ह भएको कसैलाई पनि नछोओ । मेरो पवित्रस्थानदेखि नै सुरु गर ।” यसैले मन्दिरको सामु भएका धर्म-गुरुहरूदेखि नै तिनीहरूले सुरु गरे ।
slay utterly the old man, the young man and the virgin, and little children and women; but come not near any man upon whom is the mark: and begin at my sanctuary. Then they began at the old men that were before the house.
7 उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई भन्नुभयो, “मन्दिर बिटुलो पार, र त्यसका चोकहरूलाई लाशहरूले भर । जाओ!” यसैले तिनीहरू गए र सहरलाई आक्रमण गरे ।
And he said unto them, Defile the house, and fill the courts with the slain: go ye forth. And they went forth, and smote in the city.
8 जब तिनीहरूले त्यसलाई आक्रमण गर्दैथिए, र मचाहिं एक्लै छोडिएँ, तब घोप्टो परें र रुँदै भनें, “हे परमप्रभु परमेश्वर, यरूशलेममाथि आफ्नो क्रोध खन्याउनुहुँदा इस्राएलका बचेकाहरू जम्मैलाई तपाईंले सर्वनाश गर्नुहुनेछ?”
And it came to pass, while they were smiting, and I was left, that I fell upon my face, and cried, and said, Ah Lord Jehovah! wilt thou destroy all the residue of Israel in thy pouring out of thy wrath upon Jerusalem?
9 उहाँले मलाई भन्नुभयो, “इस्राएल र यहूदाका घरानाको पाप असाध्य ठुलो छ । देश रक्तपातले भरिएको छ, र सहरचाहिं विकृतिले भरिपूर्ण छ, किनकि तिनीहरू भन्छन्, 'परमप्रभुले देशलाई त्याग्नुभएको छ, र ‘परमप्रभुले देख्नुहुन्न' ।
Then said he unto me, The iniquity of the house of Israel and Judah is exceeding great, and the land is full of blood, and the city full of wresting [of judgment]: for they say, Jehovah hath forsaken the land, and Jehovah seeth not.
10 यसैले मेरा आँखामा दया हुनेछैनँ, र म तिनीहरूलाई छोड्नेछैनँ । बरु म ती सबै तिनीहरूकै शिरमा खन्याइदिनेछु ।”
And as for me also, mine eye shall not spare, neither will I have pity, but I will bring their way upon their head.
11 हेर, त्यो सूती कपडा लगाएको र कम्मरमा कलम भिरेको मानिस आऐ । तिनले यसो भने, “तपाईंले मलाई आज्ञा गर्नुभएबमोजिम मैले गरेको छु ।”
And, behold, the man clothed in linen, who had the inkhorn by his side, reported the matter, saying, I have done as thou hast commanded me.
