< यर्मिया 20 >

1 यर्मियाले परमप्रभुको मन्दिरको सामु यी वचनहरू अगमवाणी गरिरहेका छन् भनेर इम्मेरका छोरा पुजारी पशहूर, एकजना मुख्‍य अधिकारीले सुने ।
Now Paschor the son of Emmer, the priest, who also had been appointed chief of the house of the Lord, heard Jeremias prophesying these words.
2 त्यसैले पशहूरले यर्मिया अगमवक्तालाई कुटे र त्‍यसपछि तिनलाई परमप्रभुको मन्दिरस्थित बेन्यामीनको माथिल्लो ढोकामा भएको ठिंगुरोमा हाले ।
And he smote him, and cast him into the dungeon which was by the gate of the upper house that was set apart, which was by the house of the Lord.
3 अर्को दिन पशहूरले यर्मियालाई ठिंगुरोबाट निकालेर ल्याए । तब यर्मियाले तिनलाई भने, “परमप्रभुले तिम्रो नाउँ पशहूर नभई मागोर-मिस्साबीब राख्‍नुभएको छ ।
And Paschor brought Jeremias out of the dungeon: and Jeremias said to him, [The Lord] has not called thy name Paschor, but Exile.
4 किनकि परमप्रभु यसो भन्‍नुहुन्छ, 'हेर्, म तँ र तेरा सबै प्रियलाई त्रासको वस्‍तु बनाउनेछु, किनकि तिनीहरू आफ्‍ना शत्रुहरूका तरवारले ढालिनेछन्, र तेरै आँखाले यो देख्‍नेछस् । सारा यहूदालाई बेबिलोनका राजाको हातमा म दिनेछु । त्यसले तिनीहरूलाई बेबिलोनमा कैद गरेर लानेछ वा तरवारले आक्रमण गर्नेछ ।
For thus saith the Lord, Behold, I [will] give thee up to captivity with all thy friends: and they shall fall by the sword of their enemies, and thine eyes shall see [it]: and I will give thee and all Juda into the hands of the king of Babylon, and they shall carry them captives, and cut them in pieces with swords.
5 म त्यसलाई यस सहरका सबै धनसम्पत्ति, यसका सबै बहुमूल्य थोकहरू र यहूदाका राजाहरूका सबै खजाना दिनेछु । म यी थोकहरू तेरा शत्रुहरूका हातमा राखिदिनेछु, र तिनीहरूले ती समात्‍नेछन् । तिनीहरूले तिनलाई लानेछन् र बेबिलोनमा पुर्‍याउनेछन् ।
And I will give all the strength of this city, and all the labours of it, and all the treasures of the king of Juda, into the hands of his enemies, and they shall bring them to Babylon.
6 तर तँ पशहूर र तेरो घरानाका सबै बासिन्दा कैदमा लगिनेछन् । तँ बेबिलोनमा जानेछस् र त्यहीं मर्नेछस् । तँ र तेरा सबै प्रियहरू जसको निम्‍ति तैंले छली कुराहरूको अगमवाणी बोलेको छस्, त्यहीं गाडिनेछन्' ।”
And thou and all the dwellers in thine house shall go into captivity: and thou shalt die in Babylon, and there thou and all thy friends shall be buried, to whom thou hast prophesied lies.
7 “हे परमप्रभु, तपाईंले मलाई धोका दिनुभयो, र म धोका दिइयो । मभन्दा तपाईं नै शक्तिशाली हुनुहुन्छ, र तपाईं ममाथि विजयी हुनुभयो । म दिनभरि नै हाँसोको वस्‍तु बनें । हरेकले मेरो गिल्ला गर्छ ।
Thou hast deceived me, O Lord, and I have been deceived: thou hast been strong, and has prevailed: I am become a laughing-stock, I am continually mocked every day.
8 किनकि मैले जहिले बोले पनि मैले यसो भनेको र घोषणा गरेको छु, 'हिंसा र विनास ।' तब परमप्रभुको वचन मेरो लागि हरेक दिन निन्दा र ठट्टाको कारण भएको छ ।
For I will laugh with my bitter speech, I will call upon rebellion and misery: for the word of the Lord is become a reproach to me and a mockery all my days.
9 यसो भन्‍छु भने, 'म परमप्रभुको बारेमा फेरि विचार गर्दिन, म फेरि उहाँको नाउँमा बोल्दिनँ ।' तब त्यो मेरा हड्‍डीहरू भित्र थुनिराखेको, मेरो हृदयमा आगोजस्तो हुन्‍छ । त्‍यसैले म यसलाई भित्रै थुनिराख्‍न सङ्घर्ष गर्छु, तर म सक्दिनँ ।
Then I said, I will by no means name the name of the Lord, and I will no more at all speak in his name. But it was a burning fire flaming in my bones, and I am utterly weakened on all sides, and cannot bear [up].
10 चारैतिर भएका धेरै जना मानिसबाट मैले त्रासको हल्ला सुनेको छु, 'खबर गर! हामीले यसबारे खबर गर्नुपर्छ!' मेरा नजिक हुनेहरू म पतन हुनेछु कि भनेर हेर्छन् । सायद त्‍यसलाई छल गर्न सकिन्‍छ । त्यसो भयो भने, हामीले त्यसलाई पराजित गर्न सक्छौं र त्यसमाथि हाम्रो बदला लिन सक्छौं ।'
For I have heard the reproach of many gathering round, [saying], Conspire ye, and let us conspire together against him, [even] all his friends: watch his intentions, if perhaps he shall be deceived, and we shall prevail against him, and we shall be avenged on him.
11 तर शक्तिशाली योद्धाझैं परमप्रभु मसित हुनुहुन्छ । त्यसैले मेरो पिछा गर्नेहरू ठेस खाएर लड्नेछन् । तिनीहरूले मलाई पराजित गर्नेछैनन् । तिनीहरू अत्यन्तै लज्‍जित हुनेछन्, किनकि तिनीहरू सफल हुनेछैनन् । तिनीहरूको लाजको अन्त्य हुनेछैन, त्‍यो कहिल्यै बिर्सिनेछैन ।
But the Lord was with me as a mighty man of war: therefore they persecuted [me], but could not perceive [anything against me]; they were greatly confounded, for they perceived not their disgrace, which shall never be forgotten.
12 तर हे सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभु, तपाईंले धर्मीहरूको जाँच गर्नुहुन्छ, अनि मन र हृदय देख्‍नुहुन्छ । मैले आफ्‍नो मामला तपाईंमा सुम्‍पेको हुनाले तिनीहरूमाथि तपाईंले लिनुहुने बदला मलाई देखाउनुहोस् ।
O Lord, that provest just [deeds], understanding the reins and hearts, let me see thy vengeance upon them: for to thee I have revealed my cause.
13 परमप्रभुको निम्ति गाओ! परमप्रभुको प्रशंसा गर! किनकि उहाँले दुष्‍ट काम गर्नेहरूको हातबाट थिचोमिचोमा परेकाहरूको जीवनलाई बचाउनुभएको छ ।
Sing ye to the Lord, sing praise to him: for he has rescued the soul of the poor from the hand of evil-doers.
14 त्‍यो दिन श्रापित होस् जति बेला म जन्मेको थिएँ । मेरी आमाले मलाई जन्म दिएकी दिन आशिषित नहोस् ।
Cursed be the day wherein I was born: the day wherein my mother brought me forth, let it not be blessed.
15 मेरा बुबालाई यो खबर दिने मानिस श्रापित होस्, जसले यसो भनेर बडो आनन्द दियो, 'तपाईंको छोरो जन्मिएको छ' ।
Cursed be the man who brought the glad tidings to my father, saying, A male child is born to thee.
16 त्यो मानिस परमप्रभुले नष्‍ट गर्नुभएका सहरहरूजस्तो होस् जसलाई उहाँले दया देखाउनुभएन । त्यसले बिहानै मदतको गुहार र मध्यदिनमा युद्धको रोदन सुन्‍न परोस् ।
Let that man rejoice as the cities which the Lord overthrew in wrath, and repented not: let him hear crying in the morning, and loud lamentation at noon;
17 किनकि त्यसले मेरी आमालाई नै मेरो चिहान बनाएर मलाई गर्भमै मारेन । त्यो गर्भ सधैं गर्भवती नै रहनेथियो ।
because he slew me not in the womb, and my mother became not my tomb, and her womb always great with me.
18 सङ्कष्‍ट र वेदना हेर्न, यसरी मेरा दिनहरू लाजमा बिताउन म किन गर्भबाट बाहिर निस्केर आएँ?”
Why is it that I came forth of the womb to see troubles and distresses, and my days are spent in shame?
