1 मैले इस्राएललाई निको पार्ने इच्‍छा गर्दा, एफ्राइमको पाप र सामरियाका दुष्‍ट कामहरू प्रकट हुन्छन्, किनकि तिनीहरू धोकापूर्ण काम गर्छन् । एक जना चोर भित्र प्रवेश गर्छ, र डाँकूहरूको समुहले सडकमा आक्रमण गर्छ ।
When I woulde haue healed Israel, then the iniquitie of Ephraim was discouered, and the wickednesse of Samaria: for they haue dealt falsly: and the theefe commeth in, and the robber spoyleth without.
2 तिनीहरूका सबै दुष्‍ट कामलाई मैले याद गर्छु, भनी तिनीहरूले आफ्नो हृदयहरूमा महसुस नै गर्दैनन् । अब तिनीहरूका कामहरूले तिनीहरूलाई नै घेर्छन् । ती मेरो अनुहारको सामु छन् ।
And they consider not in their hearts, that I remember all their wickednes: now their owne inuentions haue beset them about: they are in my sight.
3 तिनीहरूले आफ्ना दुष्‍टताले राजालाई, र आफ्ना झुटले अधिकारीहरूलाई खुशी बनाउँछन् ।
They make the King glad with their wickednesse, and the princes with their lies.
4 रोटी बनाउनेले तताएको तावाजस्‍तै, जसले पिठो मुछेर नफुलेसम्म आगो बाल्‍दैन, तिनीहरू सबै व्यभिचारीहरू हुन् ।
They are all adulterers, and as a very ouen heated by ye baker, which ceaseth from raysing vp, and from kneading ye dough vntill it be leauened.
5 हाम्रा राजाको दिनमा अधिकारीहरूले आफैंलाई दाखमद्यको मातले बिरामी पार्छन् । ठट्टा गर्नेहरूसँग उसले आफ्नो हात मिलायो ।
This is the day of our King: the princes haue made him sicke with flagons of wine: he stretcheth out his hand to scorners.
6 किनकि एउटा तावाजस्‍तो हृदयहरूले, तिनीहरू आफ्ना छलपूर्ण योजना बनाउँछन् । तिनीहरूको रिस रातभरि दन्किन्छ । बिहान त्यो ज्वालामय आगोझैं बल्दछ ।
For they haue made ready their heart like an ouen whiles they lie in waite: their baker sleepeth all the night: in the morning it burneth as a flame of fire.
7 तिनीहरू सबै तावाजस्‍तै तातो छन्, र आफूमाथि शासन गर्नेलाई तिनीहरू भस्म पार्छन् । तिनीहरूका सबै राजा पतित भएका छन् । तीमध्‍ये कसैले मलाई पुकारा गर्दैनन् ।
They are all hote as an ouen, and haue deuoured their iudges: all their Kings are fallen: there is none among them that calleth vnto me.
8 एफ्राइमले आफैंलाई अरू मानिसहरूसँग मिसाएको छ । नफर्काइएको रोटीजस्‍तै एफ्राइम छ ।
Ephraim hath mixt himselfe among the people. Ephraim is as a cake on the hearth not turned.
9 परदेशीहरूले उसको शक्तिलाई नष्‍ट गरेको छ, तर उसलाई त्यो थाहा नै छैन । उसमा यताउता केश फुलेका छन्, तर उसलाई त्यो थाहा छैन ।
Strangers haue deuoured his strength, and he knoweth it not: yea, gray heares are here and there vpon him, yet he knoweth not.
10 इस्राएलको घमण्डले आफ्‍नै विरुद्ध गवाही दिन्छ, तापनि तिनीहरू परमप्रभु आफ्‍ना परमेश्‍वरतिर फर्केका छैनन्, न त यी सबै कुरापछि पनि तिनीहरूले उहाँलाई खोजेका छन् ।
And the pride of Israel testifieth to his face, and they doe not returne to the Lord their God, nor seeke him for all this.
11 एफ्राइमचाहिं सजिलै छकाउन सकिने र विवेकहीन ढुकुरजस्‍तो छ, मिश्रदेशलाई पुकारा गर्दैछ, त्‍यसपछि अश्‍शूरतिर उड्दैछ ।
Ephraim also is like a doue deceiued, without heart: they call to Egypt: they go to Asshur.
12 जब तिनीहरू जान्छन्, तब तिनीहरूमाथि म आफ्‍नो जाल फैलाउनेछु, आकाशका चराहरूझैं तिनीहरूलाई म तल खसाल्‍नेछु । तिनीहरू एकसाथ जम्‍मा हुँदा म तिनीहरूलाई दण्ड दिनेछु ।
But when they shall go, I will spred my net vpon them, and drawe them downe as the foules of the heauen: I will chastice them as their congregation hath heard.
13 तिनीहरूलाई धिक्‍कार छ! किनकि तिनीहरू मबाट टाढा बहकिएका छन् । तिनीहरूमाथि विनाश आउँदै छ! तिनीहरूले मेरो विरुद्ध विद्रोह गरेका छन्! मैले तिनीहरूलाई बचाउन सक्‍थें, तर तिनीहरूले मेरो विरुद्धमा झुट बोले ।
Wo vnto them: for they haue fled away from me: destruction shalbe vnto them, because they haue transgressed against me: though I haue redeemed them, yet they haue spoken lyes against me.
14 आफ्ना सारा हृदयले, तिनीहरूले मसँग पुकारा गरेका छैनन्, तर आफ्ना ओछ्यानमा तिनीहरू विलाप गर्छन् । अन्‍न, र नयाँ दाखमद्यको निम्ति तिनीहरू एकसाथ भेला हुन्छन्, र तिनीहरू मबाट टाढा जान्छन् ।
And they haue not cryed vnto me with their hearts, when they houled vpon their beds: they assembled themselues for corne, and wine, and they rebell against me.
15 मैले तिनीहरूलाई तालिम दिएँ र तिनीहरूका पाखुराहरूलाई सशक्‍त बनाएँ, तापनि अहिले तिनीहरू मेरो विरुद्धमा नै खराब षड्‌यन्‍त्र रच्‍छन् ।
Though I haue boud and strengthened their arme, yet doe they imagine mischiefe against me.
16 तिनीहरू फर्कन्छन्, तर म, अर्थात् सर्वोच्‍चतिर भने फर्कंदैनन् । तिनीहरू धोका दिने धनुझैं छन् । आफ्ना जिब्रोको निर्लज्‍जताका कारणले, तिनीहरूका अधिकारीहरू तरवारले मारिनेछन् । मिश्रदेशमा यही तिनीहरूको उपहास हुनेछ ।
They returne, but not to the most high: they are like a deceitfull bowe: their princes shall fall by the sword, for the rage of their tongues: this shall be their derision in the land of Egypt.
