यर्मिया 12
1 हे परमप्रभु, मैले तपाईंकहाँ विवाद ल्याउँदा तपाईं धर्मी हुनुहुन्छ । मैले गुनासो गर्नुपर्ने कारण निश्चय पनि मैले तपाईंलाई बताउनुपर्छः किन दुष्टका मार्गहरू सफल हुन्छन्? सबै विश्वासहीन मानिस सफल छन् ।
You are righteous, Yahweh, whenever I bring disputes to you. I must certainly tell you of my reason to complain: Why do the ways of the wicked succeed? All the faithless people are successful.
2 तपाईंले तिनीहरूलाई रोप्नुभयो, र तिनीहरूले जरा हाले । तिनीहरूले निरन्तर फल फलाउँछन् । तिनीहरूका मुखमा तपाईं तिनीहरूको नजिक हुनुहुन्छ, तर तिनीहरूका हृदयबाट धेरै टाढा हुनुहुन्छ ।
You planted them and they took root. They continue to produce fruit. You are near to them in their mouths, but far away from their hearts.
3 तापनि हे परमप्रभु, तपाईंले मलाई जान्नुहुन्छ । तपाईंले मलाई देख्नुहुन्छ, र तपाईंप्रतिको मेरो हृदयलाई जाँच गर्नहुन्छ । मारिनलाई लगिने भेडाजस्तै तिनीहरूलाई लैजानुहोस्, र मारिने दिनको लागि तिनीहरूलाई अलग गर्नुहोस् ।
Yet you, Yahweh, know me. You see me and you test my heart toward you. Take them away like sheep to the slaughter, and set them apart for the day of slaughter!
4 देश कहिलेसम्म सुक्खा भइरहन्छ, यसका बासिन्दाहरूको दुष्टताको कारणले हरेक खेतका बोटबिरुवा ओइलाउँछन्? पशुहरू र चराहरू लगिएका छन् । वास्तवमा मानिसहरू भन्छन्, “हामीमाथि के भएको छ, सो परमेश्वरले देख्नुहुन्न ।”
How long will the land go on drying up, and the plants in every field wither because of the wickedness of its inhabitants? The animals and the birds have been taken away. Indeed, the people say, “God will not see what happens to us.”
5 परमप्रभुले भन्नुभयो, “वास्तवमा, तँ यर्मिया पैदल हिंड्ने सिपाहीहरूसित दगुरेको भए, र तिनीहरूले तँलाई थकाएका भए, तैंले कसरी घोडाहरूको विरुद्धमा प्रतिस्पर्धा गर्न सक्छन्? तँ सुरक्षित पाखामा खसेको छस् भने, यर्दननेरका झाडीहरूमा तैंले के गर्नेछस्?
Yahweh said, “Indeed, if you, Jeremiah, have run with foot soldiers and they have tired you out, how can you compete against horses? If you fall down in the safe countryside, how will you do in the thickets along the Jordan?
6 किनकि तेरै दाजुभाइ र तेरै बुबाको परिवारले तँलाई धोका दिएका अनि खुलेआम कराएर तँलाई इन्कार गरेका छन् । तिनीहरूले तँलाई राम्रा कुराहरू गरे तापनि तिनीहरूमाथि भरोसा नगर् ।
For even your brothers and your father's family have betrayed you and have loudly denounced you. Do not trust in them, even if they say nice things to you.
7 मैले आफ्नो घरलाई त्यागेको छु । मैले मेरो पैतृक-सम्पत्तिलाई इन्कार गरेको छु । मैले मेरी प्रियलाई उसका शत्रुहरूका हातमा सुम्पेको छु ।
I have abandoned my house; I have forsaken my inheritance. I have given my beloved into the hands of her enemies.
8 मेरो उत्तराधिकार मेरो निम्ति झाडीमा भएको सिंहजस्तै भएको छ । त्यो आफ्नै आवाजले त्यसले मलाई गर्जन्छ, त्यसैले म त्यसलाई घृणा गर्छु ।
My inheritance has become to me like a lion in a thicket; she sets herself against me with her own voice, so I hate her.
9 के मैले मूल्य तिरेको उत्तराधिकार छिरबिरे सिकारी चराजस्तै बनेको छैन, जसका विरुद्धमा अरू सिकारी चराहरू आइलाग्छन्? जा र सबै जङ्गली जनावरहरूलाई जम्मा गर्, र त्यसलाई निल्न तिनीहरूलाई लिएर आइज ।
Has not my prized possession become a speckled bird, that other birds of prey go against her all around? Go and gather all the wild beasts and bring them to devour her.
10 धेरै गोठालाहरूले मेरो दाखबारीलाई नष्ट पारेका छन् । तिनीहरूले मेरो खेतको भागलाई कुल्चेका छन् । मेरो खुशीको भागलाई उजाड-स्थान, तिनीहरूले निर्जन मरुभूमिमा परिणत गरेका छन् ।
Many shepherds have destroyed my vineyard. They have stomped all over my portion of land; they turned my delightful portion into a wilderness, a desolation.
11 तिनीहरूले त्यसलाई उजाड पारेका छन् । म त्यसको निम्ति शोक गर्छु । त्यो उजाड छ । सारा देश उजाड पारिएको छ, किनकि यसलाई हृदयमा लिने कोही छैन ।
They have made her a desolation. I mourn for her; she is desolate. All the land has been made desolate, for there is no one who takes it to heart.
12 विनाशकहरू उजाड-स्थानका सबै नाङ्गा स्थानहरूको विरुद्धमा आएका छन्, किनकि परमप्रभुको तरवारले तिनीहरूलाई देशको एउटा छेउदेखि अर्को छेउसम्म नाश पार्दैछ । देशमा कुनै पनि जीवित प्राणीको लागि सुरक्षा छैन ।
Destroyers have come against all the bare places in the wilderness, for Yahweh's sword is devouring from one end of the land to the other. There is no safety in the land for any living creature.
13 तिनीहरूले गहुँ रोपेका छन्, तर काँढा कटनी गरेका छन् । तिनीहरू काम गरेर थकित भएका छन्, तर केही आर्जन गरेका छैनन् । त्यसैले परमप्रभुको क्रोधको कारणले तिमीहरूको आर्जनप्रति लज्जित होओ ।”
They have sown wheat but harvest thornbushes. They are exhausted from work but have gained nothing. So be ashamed of your gain because of Yahweh's anger.”
14 मैले आफ्ना मानिस इस्राएललाई उत्तराधिकारको रूपमा दिएको कुरामा प्रहार गर्ने मेरा सबै दुष्ट छिमेकीका विरुद्धमा परमप्रभु यसो भन्नुहुन्छ, “हेर, तिनीहरूको आफ्नै भूमिबाट जरैदेखि तिनीहरूलाई उखेल्ने लागेको मैले नै हो र यहूदाको घरानालाई म तिनीहरूका बिचबाट माथि तान्नेछु ।
Yahweh says this against all my neighbors, the wicked ones who strike at the possession that I made my people Israel inherit, “See, I am the one who is about to uproot them from their own ground, and I will pull up the house of Judah from among them.
15 त्यसपछि म ती जातिहरूलाई जरैदेखि उखेलेपछि म तिनीहरूलाई दया देखाउनेछु, र तिनीहरूलाई फर्काएर ल्याउनेछु । म हरेक मानिसलाई त्यसको आफ्नै उत्तराधिकार र देशमा फर्काएर ल्याउनेछु ।
Then after I uproot those nations, it will happen that I will have compassion on them and bring them back; I will return them—each man to his inheritance and his land.
16 तिनीहरूले मेरा मानिसहरूलाई बाल देवताको नाउँमा शपथ खान सिकाएझैं तिनीहरूले 'जीवित परमप्रभुको नाउँमा' शपथ खान सिकाएर ती जातिहरूले मेरा मानिसहरूका मार्गलाई होसियारीपूर्वक सिके भने, तिनीहरू मेरा मानिसहरूका बिचमा स्थापित हुनेछन् ।
It will come about that if those nations carefully learn the ways of my people, to swear by my name 'As Yahweh lives' just as they have taught my people to swear by Baal, then they will be built up in the midst of my people.
17 तर कुनै जातिले सुनेन भने म त्यसलाई जरैदेखि उखेल्नेछु । त्यो निश्चय नै जरैदेखि उखेलिनेछ, र नष्ट गरिनेछ, यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो ।
But if any do not listen, then I will uproot that nation. It will certainly be uprooted and destroyed—this is Yahweh's declaration.”
