< यर्मिया 20 >

1 यर्मियाले परमप्रभुको मन्दिरको सामु यी वचनहरू अगमवाणी गरिरहेका छन् भनेर इम्मेरका छोरा पुजारी पशहूर, एकजना मुख्‍य अधिकारीले सुने ।
Pashhur, the son of Immer, was a priest who supervised the temple guards. He heard those things that I had prophesied.
2 त्यसैले पशहूरले यर्मिया अगमवक्तालाई कुटे र त्‍यसपछि तिनलाई परमप्रभुको मन्दिरस्थित बेन्यामीनको माथिल्लो ढोकामा भएको ठिंगुरोमा हाले ।
[So he arrested me]. Then he [commanded guards to] whip me and fasten my feet in (stocks/a wooden frame) at the Benjamin Gate of Yahweh’s temple.
3 अर्को दिन पशहूरले यर्मियालाई ठिंगुरोबाट निकालेर ल्याए । तब यर्मियाले तिनलाई भने, “परमप्रभुले तिम्रो नाउँ पशहूर नभई मागोर-मिस्साबीब राख्‍नुभएको छ ।
The next day, when Pashhur released me, I said to him, “Pashhur, Yahweh is giving you a new name. From now on, your name will be ‘Surrounded by Terror’,
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 ।
because Yahweh says this [to you]: ‘I will cause you and your friends to be terrified. You will watch them being killed by your enemies’ swords. I will enable the [army of the] king of Babylon to capture the people of Judah. Those soldiers will take some of the people to Babylon, and they will kill others with their 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 enable their soldiers to take away [other things in] Jerusalem. They will take to Babylon all the very valuable things that belonged to your kings.
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 [as for] you, Pashhur, they will take you and all your family to Babylon. You and your family and all your friends who have prophesied things that are lies will die there and be buried there.’”
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 ।
[One day I said this to Yahweh]: “Yahweh, [when you chose me to be a prophet, ] deceived me, and I allowed you to deceive me. You insisted that I [become a prophet] and you are stronger than I am. And now everyone [HYP] ridicules me. They make fun of me all the 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 ।
When I tell [people your messages], I shout saying, ‘[Yahweh is going to cause you to experience] violence and destruction!’ So because I tell them those messages from you, they insult me and scoff at me all day long.
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 ।
But if I would say, ‘I will never mention Yahweh or say anything about him, [MTY]’ [it would be as though] your message would burn in my inner being like [SIM] a fire; it would be like a fire in my bones. Sometimes I try to remain silent and not proclaim your messages, but I am not able to do that.
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 ।'
I hear many people whispering [about me], saying ‘[He is the man who proclaims that there will be things that cause us to] be terrified everywhere. We must tell [the authorities what he is saying]! We must denounce him!’ [Even] my best friends are waiting for me to say something that is wrong. [They are saying], ‘Perhaps we can cause him to say something wrong, and if he does, we will be able to discredit 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 [you], Yahweh, are helping me like [SIM] a strong warrior, so [it is as though] you will cause those who persecute me to stumble, and they will not defeat me. They will be completely disgraced because of being unable to defeat me; and other people will never forget that they were disgraced.
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 ।
Commander of the armies of angels, you examine [all] those who are righteous; you know [all that is in] their inner beings and what they think. Allow me to see you getting revenge on those [who want to harm me], because I trust that you will do for me what is right.”
13 परमप्रभुको निम्ति गाओ! परमप्रभुको प्रशंसा गर! किनकि उहाँले दुष्‍ट काम गर्नेहरूको हातबाट थिचोमिचोमा परेकाहरूको जीवनलाई बचाउनुभएको छ ।
Sing to Yahweh! Praise Yahweh! He rescues [poor and] needy people, from those [SYN] who are wicked.
14 त्‍यो दिन श्रापित होस् जति बेला म जन्मेको थिएँ । मेरी आमाले मलाई जन्म दिएकी दिन आशिषित नहोस् ।
But I hope/desire that the day that I was born will be cursed. I do not want [anyone to] celebrate that day.
15 मेरा बुबालाई यो खबर दिने मानिस श्रापित होस्, जसले यसो भनेर बडो आनन्द दियो, 'तपाईंको छोरो जन्मिएको छ' ।
And [as for] that man who brought to my father the news, and caused him to be very happy, by saying “[You wife] has given birth to a son for you”, I hope/desire that he [also] will be cursed.
16 त्यो मानिस परमप्रभुले नष्‍ट गर्नुभएका सहरहरूजस्तो होस् जसलाई उहाँले दया देखाउनुभएन । त्यसले बिहानै मदतको गुहार र मध्यदिनमा युद्धको रोदन सुन्‍न परोस् ।
Allow him to be destroyed like the cities that Yahweh destroyed [long ago], without acting mercifully [toward them]. Cause that man to hear the people wailing in the morning, and [to hear the enemy soldiers shout their] battle cries at noon.
17 किनकि त्यसले मेरी आमालाई नै मेरो चिहान बनाएर मलाई गर्भमै मारेन । त्यो गर्भ सधैं गर्भवती नै रहनेथियो ।
[I want that to happen to him] because he did not kill me before I was born. I wish that I had died in my mother’s womb, and that my mother’s body would have been [like] [MET] my grave.
18 सङ्कष्‍ट र वेदना हेर्न, यसरी मेरा दिनहरू लाजमा बिताउन म किन गर्भबाट बाहिर निस्केर आएँ?”
I have continually experienced much trouble and sorrow, and I am disgraced now when I am about to die; why was it necessary [RHQ] for me to me born?
