यर्मिया 19
1 परमप्रभुले यसो भन्नुभयो, “जा र तँ मानिसहरू र पुजारीहरूका धर्म-गुरुहरूसित हुँदा कुमालेको माटोको भाँडो किन् ।
This is what the LORD says: “Go and buy a clay jar from a potter. Take some of the elders of the people and leaders of the priests,
2 त्यसपछि बेन-हिन्नोमको बेँसीमा भएको फुटेको भाँडाको ढोकामा जा र मैले तँलाई बताउने वचनहरू त्यहाँ घोषणा गर ।
and go out to the Valley of Ben-hinnom near the entrance of the Potsherd Gate. Proclaim there the words I speak to you,
3 यसो भन्, 'हे यहूदाका राजाहरू र यरूशलेमका बासिन्दाहरू हो, परमप्रभुको वचन सुन । सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्वर यसो भन्नुहुन्छ, 'हेर्, मैले यस ठाउँमाथि विपत्ति ल्याउनै लागेको छु, र यस विषयमा सुन्ने हरेकको कान झनझनाउने छ ।
saying, ‘Hear the word of the LORD, O kings of Judah and residents of Jerusalem. This is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: I am going to bring such disaster on this place that the ears of all who hear of it will ring,
4 तिनीहरूले मलाई त्यागेका र यस ठाउँलाई अपवित्र तुल्याका हुनाले म यसो गर्ने छु । यही ठाउँमा आफूले नचिनेका अन्य देवताहरूलाई तिनीहरूले बलिदान चढाउँछन् । तिनीहरू, तिनीहरूका पिता-पुर्खाहरू र यहूदाका राजाहरूले यही ठाउँमा निर्दोष रगत पनि बगाएका छन् ।
because they have abandoned Me and made this a foreign place. They have burned incense in this place to other gods that neither they nor their fathers nor the kings of Judah have ever known. They have filled this place with the blood of the innocent.
5 आफ्ना छोराहरू बाल देवतालाई आगोमा होमबलिको रूपमा चढाउन तिनीहरूले त्यसका अग्ला ठाउँहरू बनाए, यस्तो कुनै कुरो जुन मैले आज्ञा गरिनँ वा बताइनँ न त मेरो मनमा नै थियो ।
They have built high places to Baal on which to burn their children in the fire as offerings to Baal—something I never commanded or mentioned, nor did it even enter My mind.
6 त्यसकारण, यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो, हेर्, त्यस्ता दिनहरू आउँदैछन्, त्यति बेला यस ठाउँलाई तोपेत अर्थात् बेन-हिन्नोमको बेँसी भनिनेछैन, तर हत्याको बेँसी भनिनेछ ।
So behold, the days are coming, declares the LORD, when this place will no longer be called Topheth or the Valley of Ben-hinnom, but the Valley of Slaughter.
7 यही ठाउँमा म यहूदा र यरूशलेमका योजनाहरूलाई बेकम्मा तुल्याउनेछु । म तिनीहरूका आफ्ना शत्रुको तरवार र तिनीहरूको ज्यान लिन खोज्नेहरूको हातद्वारा नष्ट गर्नेछु । त्यसपछि म तिनीहरूका लाशहरू आकाशका चराहरू र जमिनका जनावरहरूलाई आहाराको रूपमा दिनेछु ।
And in this place I will ruin the plans of Judah and Jerusalem. I will make them fall by the sword before their enemies, by the hands of those who seek their lives, and I will give their carcasses as food to the birds of the air and the beasts of the earth.
8 अनि म यस सहरलाई भग्नावशेष र गिल्लाको वस्तु बनाउनेछु, किनकि यसबाट भएर जाने हरेकले यी सबै विपत्ति देखेर डराउनेछ र गिल्ला गर्नेछ ।
I will make this city a desolation and an object of scorn. All who pass by will be appalled and will scoff at all her wounds.
9 तिनीहरूलाई आफ्नै छोराछोरीको मासु खाने म बनाउनेछु । तिनीहरूका शत्रुहरू र तिनीहरूको ज्यान लिन खोज्नेहरूद्वारा ल्याइएको घेराबन्दी र सङ्कष्टमा हरेक मानिसले आफ्नै छिमेकीको मासु खानेछ ।”
I will make them eat the flesh of their sons and daughters, and they will eat one another’s flesh in the siege and distress inflicted on them by their enemies who seek their lives.’
10 “तब तँसगै गएका मानिसहरूका आँखाकै सामु तैंले त्यो माटोको भाँडा फुटाइदे ।
Then you are to shatter the jar in the presence of the men who accompany you,
11 तैंले तिनीहरूलाई यसो भन्, 'सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभु यसो भन्नुहुन्छः जसरी यो माटोको भाँडो फेरि मर्मत हुनै नसक्ने गरी यर्मियाले फुटाएको छ, त्यसरी नै म यी मानिस र यस सहरलाई गर्नेछु, यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो । अरू बढी लासहरू गाड्ने ठाउँ नभएसम्म नै मानिसहरूले तोपेतमा लासहरू गाड्नेछन् ।
and you are to proclaim to them that this is what the LORD of Hosts says: I will shatter this nation and this city, like one shatters a potter’s jar that can never again be repaired. They will bury the dead in Topheth until there is no more room to bury them.
12 मैले यो सहरलाई तोपेतजस्तै बनाउँदा यो ठाउँ र यसका बासिन्दालाई म यसै गर्नेछु, यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो,
This is what I will do to this place and to its residents, declares the LORD. I will make this city like Topheth.
13 यसरी, यरूशलेमका घरानाहरू र यहूदाका राजाहरू, ती सबै घर जसका कौसीहरूमा अशुद्ध मानिसहरूले आकाशमण्डलका सबै ताराहरूको पुजा गरे र अरू देवताहरूलाई अर्घबलि चढाए, तिनीहरू तोपेतजस्तै हुनेछन्' ।”
The houses of Jerusalem and the houses of the kings of Judah will be defiled like that place, Topheth—all the houses on whose rooftops they burned incense to all the host of heaven and poured out drink offerings to other gods.”
14 तब यर्मिया तोपेतबाट गए, जहाँ अगमवाणी बोल्न परमप्रभुले तिनलाई पठाउनुभएको थियो । तिनी परमप्रभुको मन्दिरको चोकमा खडा भए र तिनले सबै मानिसलाई भने,
Then Jeremiah returned from Topheth, where the LORD had sent him to prophesy, and he stood in the courtyard of the house of the LORD and proclaimed to all the people,
15 “सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्वर यसो भन्नुहुन्छ, 'हेर्, मैले यो सहर र यसका सबै नगरहरूको विरुद्धमा घोषणा गरेका सबै विपत्ति ल्याउनै लागेकोछु, किनकि तिनीहरू अटेरी भए र मेरा वचन सुन्न इन्कार गरे' ।”
“This is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: ‘Behold, I am about to bring on this city and on all the villages around it every disaster I have pronounced against them, because they have stiffened their necks so as not to heed My words.’”
