होशे 9
1 ए इस्राएल, अरू मानिसहरूझैं आनन्दित नहोओ । किनकि आफ्ना परमेश्वरलाई त्यागेर, तिमीहरूले विश्वासहीन भएका छौ । अन्नका सबै खलामा वेश्यालाई तिर्नुपर्ने ज्याला तिर्न तिमीहरू मन पराउँछौ ।
Do not choose to rejoice, Israel; do not celebrate as the crowds do. For you have been committing fornication against your God; you have loved a prize upon every threshing floor of wheat.
2 तर अन्नका खला र दाखबारीका कोलले तिनीहरूलाई खुवाउनेछैन, र नयाँ दाखमद्य तिनीहरूका निम्ति पर्याप्त हुनेछैन ।
The threshing floor and the oil press will not feed them, and the wine will deceive them.
3 तिनीहरू परमप्रभुको देशमा सधैंभरि रहनेछैनन्, बरु, एफ्राइम मिश्रदेशमा फर्कनेछ, र एक दिन तिनीहरूले अश्शूरमा अशुद्ध भोजन खानेछन् ।
They will not dwell in the land of the Lord. Ephraim has been returned to Egypt, and he has eaten polluted things among the Assyrians.
4 तिनीहरूले परमप्रभुलाई दाखमद्यको भेटी चढाउनेछैनन्, न त तिनीहरूले उहाँलाई प्रसन्न तुल्याउनेछन् । तिनीहरूका बलिदानहरू तिनीहरूका निम्ति शोक गर्नेको भोजनझैं हुनेछ । जतिले त्यो खान्छन् ती सबै अशुद्ध हुनेछन् । किनकि तिनीहरूका भोजन तिनीहरूकै निम्ति मात्र हुनेछ । त्यो परमप्रभुको मन्दिरमा आउनेछैन ।
They will not offer a libation of wine to the Lord, and they will not please him. Their sacrifices will be like the bread of mourners. All those who eat it will be defiled. For their bread is of their soul; it will not enter into the house of the Lord.
5 तोकिएको चाडको दिनमा, परमप्रभुको निम्ति चाडको दिनमा तिमीहरू के गर्नेछौ?
What will you do on the solemn day, on the day of the feast of the Lord?
6 किनकि, हेर, तिनीहरू विनाशबाट उम्के भने, मिश्रदेशले तिनीहरूलाई एकसाथ भेला गर्नेछ, र मोपका मानिसहरूले तिनीहरूलाई गाड्नेछन् । तिनीहरूका चाँदीका धन काँढाघारीले ढाक्नेछ, र तिनीहरूका पालहरू काँढाका झाँगहरूले भरिनेछ ।
For, behold, they have been sent away by devastation. Egypt will gather them together; Memphis will bury them. Nettles will inherit their desired silver; the burr will be in their tabernacles.
7 दण्डका दिनहरू आउँदैछन् । बदलाका दिनहरू आउँदैछन् । सबै इस्राएलीहरूले यी कुरा जानून् । तिमीहरूका घोर अधर्म र वैरभावका कारणले, अगमवक्ता मुर्ख हुन्छ र प्रेरणा पाएको मानिसचाहि बौलाह हुनेछ ।
The days of visitation have arrived; the days of retribution are here. Know this, Israel: that the prophet was foolish, the spiritual man was mad, because of the multitude of your iniquities and the great extent of your foolishness.
8 अगमवक्ताचाहिं एफ्राइममाथि मेरा परमेश्वरको निम्ति रेखदेख गर्ने व्यक्ति हो । तर त्यसका सबै मार्गहरूमा चराको पासो थापिएको छ, र त्यसको परमेश्वरको मन्दिरमा त्योप्रति शत्रुता छ ।
The watcher of Ephraim was with my God. The prophet has become a snare of ruin over all his ways; insanity is in the house of his God.
9 गिबाका दिनहरूमा झैं, तिनीहरूले आफैंलाई भित्री रूपमा भ्रष्ट पारेका छन् । तिनीहरूको अधर्म परमेश्वरले सम्झना गर्नुहुनेछ र उहाँले तिनीहरूका पापको दण्ड दिनुहुनेछ ।
They have sinned profoundly, just as in the days of Gibeah. He will remember their iniquity, and he will repay their sin.
10 परमप्रभु भन्नुहुन्छ, “मैले इस्राएललाई भेट्टाउँदा, त्यो उजाड-स्थानमा दाख पाएको जस्तै थियो । नेभाराको बोटमा ऋतुको पहिलो फलझैं, मैले तिमीहरूका पुर्खाहरूलाई भेट्टाएँ । तर तिनीहरू बाल-पोरमा गए, र तिनीहरूले आफैंलाई त्यस लज्जास्पद मूर्तिकहाँ अर्पण गरे । तिनीहरूले प्रेम गर्ने मूर्तिहरूझैं तिनीहरू पनि घृणित भए ।
I discovered Israel like grapes in the desert. Like the first fruits of the fig tree, I saw their fathers on the end of its branches. But they went in to Baal-peor, and they have been estranged by intermingling, and they have become abominable, just like the things that they chose to love.
11 एफ्राइमको बारेमाचाहिं, तिनीहरूको महिमा चराझैं उडिजानेछ । त्यहाँ कुनै जन्म, कुनै गर्ववास, र कुनै गर्भधारण हुनेछैन ।
Ephraim has chased away their glory like a bird: from birth, and from the womb, and from conception.
12 तिनीहरूले छोराछोरीलाई हुर्काएको भए पनि, एउटै पनि बाँकी नरहने गरी म तिनीहरूलाई लैजानेछु । तिनीहरूबाट म फर्कँदा, तिनीहरूलाई धिक्कार होस् ।
And even if they should nurture their sons, I will make them without children among men. Yes, and woe to them, when I have withdrawn from them.
13 मैले एफ्राइमलाई टुरोसजस्तै सुन्दर मैदानमा रोपिएको देखेको छु, तर एफ्राइमले आफ्ना छोराछोरीलाई त्यसकहाँ लानेछ, जसले तिनीहरूको हत्या गर्नेछ ।”
Ephraim, as I see it, was a Tyre, founded by beauty. And Ephraim will lead his sons to execution.
14 हे परमप्रभु, तिनीहरूलाई दिनुहोस्— तपाईंले तिनीहरूलाई के दिनुहुन्छ? तिनीहरूलाई तुहिने गर्भ र दूध नआउने स्तन दिनुहोस् ।
Give them, O Lord. What will you give them? Give them a womb without children, and dry breasts.
15 “तिनीहरूले गिलगालमा गरेका सबै दुष्टताका कारणले, तिनीहरूलाई मैले त्यहाँ घृणा गर्न सुरु गरें । तिनीहरूका पापी कामहरूका कारणले, मेरो मन्दिरबाट म तिनीहरूलाई धपाउनेछु । म तिनीहरूलाई फेरि प्रेम गर्नेछैनँ । तिनीहरूका सबै अधिकारीहरू विद्रोहीहरू हुन् ।
All their wickedness is in Gilgal, for I held them there, in their hatred. Because of the malice of their inventions, I will expel them from my house. I will no longer say that I love them; all their leaders have retreated.
16 एफ्राइम रोगले ग्रस्त भएको छ, र तिनीहरूको जरा सुकेका छ । तिनीहरूले फल दिंदैनन् । तिनीहरूका छोराछोरी भए पनि, तिनीहरूका अति प्रिय छोराछोरीलाई म मार्नेछु ।”
Ephraim has been struck; their root has been dried out: by no means will they yield fruit. And even if they should conceive, I will execute the most beloved of their womb.
17 मेरा परमेश्वरले तिनीहरूलाई इन्कार गर्नुहुन्छ किनभने तिनीहरूले उहाँको आज्ञा मानेका छैनन् । जातिहरूका बिचमा तिनीहरू फिरन्तेहरू हुनेछन् ।
My God will cast them aside because they have not listened to him; and they will be wanderers among the nations.
