< यर्मिया 17 >
1 “यहूदाको पाप हिराको निब भएको फलामको कलमले लेखिएको छ । त्यसलाई तिनीहरूका हृदयका पाटी र तिनका वेदीहरूका सिङहरूमा कुँदिएको छ ।
The sin of Judah is written with a pen of iron, and with the point of a diamond: it is graven on the table of their heart, and on the horns of your altars;
2 तिनीहरूका बालबालिकाले तिनीहरूका वेदीहरू र तिनीहरूका अशेराका खम्बाहरूलाई सम्झन्छन्, जुन झ्याम्म परेका रुखहरूका छेउमा र अग्ला पहाडहरूमा थिए ।
Whilst their children remember their altars and their groves by the green trees on the high hills.
3 आफ्ना सबै इलाकामा तिमीहरूले गरेका पापको कारणले तिमीहरूका अग्ला ठाउँहरूसँगै खुला देशमा भएको मेरो पर्वत र तिमीहरूका धन-सम्पत्ति र तिमीहरूका सबै खजाना म लुटको मालको रूपमा दिनेछु ।
O my mountain in the field, I will give your substance and all your treasures to the spoil, and your high places for sin, throughout all your borders.
4 मैले तिमीहरूलाई दिएको उत्तराधिकार तिमीहरूले गुमाउने छौ । तिमीहरूले नचिनेको देशमा म तिमीहरूलाई आफ्ना शत्रुहरूको दास तुल्याउनेछु, किनकि तिमीहरूले मेरो क्रोधमा आगो सल्काएका छौ, जुन सदासर्वदा बल्नेछ ।”
And you, even yourself, shall discontinue from your heritage that I gave you; and I will cause you to serve your enemies in the land which you know not: for you have kindled a fire in my anger, which shall burn for ever.
5 परमप्रभु भन्नुहुन्छ, “मानव-जातिमा भरोसा गर्ने व्यक्ति श्रापित होस् । त्यसले शरीरलाई आफ्नो शक्ति सम्झन्छ, तर आफ्नो हृदय परमप्रभुबाट टाढा लैजान्छ ।
Thus says the LORD; Cursed be the man that trusts in man, and makes flesh his arm, and whose heart departs from the LORD.
6 त्यो अराबाको पोथ्रोझैं हुनेछ, र त्यसले कुनै असल कुरो आइरहेको देख्ने छैन । त्यो बासिन्दा नभएको उजाडस्थान, सुख्खा भूमिका चट्टानहरूमा बस्नेछ ।
For he shall be like the heath in the desert, and shall not see when good comes; but shall inhabit the parched places in the wilderness, in a salt land and not inhabited.
7 तर परमप्रभुमा भरोस गर्ने व्यक्ति धन्यको हो, किनकि परमप्रभु नै त्यसको दृढताको कारण हुनुहुन्छ ।
Blessed is the man that trusts in the LORD, and whose hope the LORD is.
8 त्यो पानीको छेउमा रोपिएको बिरुवाजस्तै हुनेछ । यसका जरा खोलाको किनारमा फैलिएको हुनेछन् । जब ताप आउँछ तब त्यो डराउनेछैन, किनकि यसका पात सधैं हरिया हुन्छन् । खडेरीको वर्षमा यो चिन्तित हुँदैन, र यसले फल फलाउन छोड्दैन ।
For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, and that spreads out her roots by the river, and shall not see when heat comes, but her leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit.
9 कुनै पनि कुराभन्दा हृदय बढी छली हुन्छ । यो रोगले ग्रस्त छ । यसलाई कसले बुझ्न सक्छ र?
The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?
10 मनको खोजी गर्ने, हृदयको जाँच गर्ने परमप्रभु म नै हुँ । हरेक व्यक्तिको आफ्नो चालअनुसार, त्यसका कामहरूको फलअनुसार म त्यसलाई इनाम दिन्छु ।
I the LORD search the heart, I try the reins, even to give every man according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings.
11 तित्रोले आफूले नपारेको अण्डा ओथ्रने काम गर्छ । कोही मानिस अन्यायपूर्वक धनी बन्न सक्छ, तर त्यसका आधा उमेर सकिन्छन् तब ती धनले त्यसलाई छाड्नेछन्, र अन्त्यमा त्यो मूर्ख हुनेछ ।”
As the partridge sits on eggs, and hatches them not; so he that gets riches, and not by right, shall leave them in the middle of his days, and at his end shall be a fool.
12 सुरुदेखि नै उच्च पारिएको हाम्रो मन्दिरको ठाउँ एउटा महिमित सिंहासन हो ।
A glorious high throne from the beginning is the place of our sanctuary.
13 परमप्रभु नै इस्राएलको आशा हुनुहुन्छ । तपाईंलाई त्याग्नेहरू सबै लाजमा पर्नेछन् । देशमा तपाईंबाट तर्केर जानेहरू धुलोमा लेखिनेछन्, किनकि तिनीहरूले परमप्रभु, जिउँदो पानीको मूललाई त्यागेका छन् ।
O LORD, the hope of Israel, all that forsake you shall be ashamed, and they that depart from me shall be written in the earth, because they have forsaken the LORD, the fountain of living waters.
14 हे परमप्रभु, मलाई निको पार्नुहोस्, र म निको हुनेछु । मलाई छुटकारा दिनुहोस्, र मैले छुटकारा पाउनेछु । किनकि तपाईं नै मेरो प्रशंसाको गीत हुनुहुन्छ ।
Heal me, O LORD, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved: for you are my praise.
15 हेर्नुहोस्, तिनीहरू मलाई यसो भन्दैछन्, 'परमप्रभुको वचन कहाँ छ? त्यो आओस् ।'
Behold, they say to me, Where is the word of the LORD? let it come now.
16 मेरो बारेमा, म तपाईंको अनुसरण गरेर गोठालो हुनदेखि भागेर म गइन । मैले विपत्तिको समयको प्रतीक्षा गरिनँ । मेरो जिब्रोबाट निस्केको घोषणाहरू तपाईं जान्नुहुन्छ । ती तपाईंकै उपस्थितिमा गरिएका थिए ।
As for me, I have not hastened from being a pastor to follow you: neither have I desired the woeful day; you know: that which came out of my lips was right before you.
17 मेरो लागि त्रास नबन्नुहोस् । सङ्कष्टको दिनमा तपाईं नै मेरो शरणस्थान हुनुहुन्छ ।
Be not a terror to me: you are my hope in the day of evil.
18 मेरो पिछा गर्नेहरू लाजमा परून्, तर मलाई लज्जित हुन नदिनुहोस् । तिनीहरू त्रासमा परून्, तर मलाई त्रासमा पर्न नदिनुहोस् । तिनीहरूको विरुद्धमा विपत्तिको दिन पठाउनुहोस्, र तिनीहरूलाई विनाशको दोब्बर भागले टुक्रा-टुक्रा पार्नुहोस् ।”
Let them be confounded that persecute me, but let not me be confounded: let them be dismayed, but let not me be dismayed: bring on them the day of evil, and destroy them with double destruction.
19 परमप्रभुले मलाई यसो भन्नुभयो, “जा र मानिसहरूका मूल ढोकामा खडा हो, जहाँबाट यहूदाका राजाहरू प्रवेश गर्छन् र जहाँबाट तिनीहरू बाहिर निस्कन्छन् । त्यसपछि यरूशलेमका अन्य सबै ढोकामा खडा हो ।
Thus said the LORD to me; Go and stand in the gate of the children of the people, whereby the kings of Judah come in, and by the which they go out, and in all the gates of Jerusalem;
20 तिनीहरूलाई भन्, 'यी ढोकाहरूबाट आवातजावत गर्ने हे सबै यहूदाका राजा, यहूदाका सबै मानिस र यरूशलेमका हरेक बासिन्दा हो, परमप्रभुको वचन सुन ।
And say to them, Hear you the word of the LORD, you kings of Judah, and all Judah, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, that enter in by these gates:
21 परमप्रभु यसो भन्नुहुन्छः आफ्नो जीवनको निम्ति होसियार होओ, र यरूशलेमका ढोकाहरूमा ल्याउन शबाथ-दिनमा भारी नबोक ।
Thus says the LORD; Take heed to yourselves, and bear no burden on the sabbath day, nor bring it in by the gates of Jerusalem;
22 शबाथ-दिनमा आफ्ना घरबाट भारी बोकेर बाहिर नल्याओ । मैले तिमीहरूका पुर्खाहरूलाई आज्ञा गरेझैं, शबाथ-दिनमा कुनै काम नगर्नू, तर त्यसलाई अलग गर्नू ।'”
Neither carry forth a burden out of your houses on the sabbath day, neither do you any work, but hallow you the sabbath day, as I commanded your fathers.
23 तर तिनीहरूले सुनेनन् वा ध्यानै दिएनन् । तिनीहरूले मेरा कुरा सुन्न नसकून् न त अनुशासनलाई स्वीकार गरून् भनेर तिनीहरू अटेरी भए ।
But they obeyed not, neither inclined their ear, but made their neck stiff, that they might not hear, nor receive instruction.
24 यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो, तिमीहरूले साँच्चै मेरो कुरा सुन्यौ र शबाथ-दिनमा यस सहरका ढोकाहरूसम्म भारी बोकेर ल्याएनौ तर शबाथ-दिनलाई परमप्रभुको निम्ति अलग गर्यौ र त्यसमा कुनै काम गरेनौ भने,
And it shall come to pass, if you diligently listen to me, says the LORD, to bring in no burden through the gates of this city on the sabbath day, but hallow the sabbath day, to do no work therein;
25 राजाहरू, राजकुमारहरू, यहूदाका मानिसहरू, यरूशलेमका बासिन्दाहरू, तिनीहरूका अगुवाहरू र दाऊदको सिंहासनमा बस्नेहरू रथहरू र घोडाहरूमा चढेर यस सहरका ढोकाहरूमा आउनेछन्, अनि यो सहरमा सदासर्वदा मानिसको बसोबास हुनेछ ।
Then shall there enter into the gates of this city kings and princes sitting on the throne of David, riding in chariots and on horses, they, and their princes, the men of Judah, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem: and this city shall remain for ever.
26 तिनीहरू यहूदाका सहरहरूबाट, यरूशलेमका चारैतिरबाट, बेन्यामीन इलाका र तराइबाट, पहाडहरूबाट र नेगेवबाट आउनेछन्, र तिनीहरूले होमबलि र बलिदानहरू, अन्नबलि र धुप, धन्यवादका बलिहरू परमप्रभुको मन्दिरमा ल्याउनेछन् ।
And they shall come from the cities of Judah, and from the places about Jerusalem, and from the land of Benjamin, and from the plain, and from the mountains, and from the south, bringing burnt offerings, and sacrifices, and meat offerings, and incense, and bringing sacrifices of praise, to the house of the LORD.
27 तर तिमीहरूले मेरो कुरा सुनेनौ, शबाथ-दिनलाई अलग गरेनौ र त्यस दिन गर्हौँ भारी नबोक भन्दा मानेनौ र यरूशलेमका ढोकाहरूभित्र प्रवेश गर्यौ भने, तब म यसका ढोकाहरूमा आगो सल्काउनेछु, र त्यसले यरूशलेमका किल्लाहरूलाई भस्म पार्नेछ, र त्यसलाई निभाउन सकिंदैन ।”
But if you will not listen to me to hallow the sabbath day, and not to bear a burden, even entering in at the gates of Jerusalem on the sabbath day; then will I kindle a fire in the gates thereof, and it shall devour the palaces of Jerusalem, and it shall not be quenched.
