यर्मिया 25

1 यहूदाका सबै मानिसको विषयमा यर्मियाकहाँ आएको वचन यही हो । यहूदाका राजा योशियाहका छोरा यहोयाकीमको चौथो वर्षमा यो वचन आयो । त्यो बेबिलोनका राजा नबूकदनेसरको पहिलो वर्ष थियो ।

The word which came to Jeremiah concerning all the people of Judah in the fourth year of Jehoiakim, the son of Josiah, king of Judah, which was the first year of Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon;

2 यर्मिया अगमवक्ताले यो वचन यहूदाका सबै मानिस र यरूशलेमका सबै बासिन्दालाई घोषणा गरे ।

which Jeremiah the prophet spake to all the people of Judah, and to all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, saying: —

3 तिनले भने, “यहूदाका राजा अमोनका छोरा योशियाहको तेह्रौं वर्षदेखि आजको दिनसम्म अर्थात् तेइस वर्षसम्म परमप्रभुको वचन मकहाँ आइरहेको छ, र मैले तिमीहरूसित पटक-पटक बोलेको छु, तर तिमीहरूले सुनेका छैनौ ।

From the thirteenth year of Josiah, the son of Amon, king of Judah, even to this day, for three and twenty years, the word of Jehovah hath come to me, and I have spoken to you, rising early and speaking; but ye have not hearkened.

4 परमप्रभुले आफ्ना सबै दास, अगमवक्ताहरूलाई तिमीहरूकहाँ पटक-पटक पठाउनुभयो, तर तिमीहरूले सुनेका वा ध्यान दिएका छैनौ ।

Also Jehovah hath sent to you all his servants the prophets, rising early and sending them; but ye have not hearkened, nor inclined your ear to hear.

5 यी अगमवक्ताहरूले भने, ‘हरेक मानिस आफ्नो दुष्‍ट चाल र आफ्ना भ्रष्‍ट अभ्यासहरूबाट फर्कोस्, अनि परमप्रभुले प्राचीन समयमा तिमीहरूका पिता-पुर्खाहरू र तिमीहरूलाई स्थायी उपहारको रूपमा दिनुभएको देशमा फर्कोस् ।

“Turn ye now,” said they, “every one from your evil way, and from your evil doings, and ye shall dwell in the land which Jehovah gave to you and to your fathers for ever and ever.

6 त्यसैले अरू देवताहरूको पुजा गर्न वा तिनीहरूको सामु निहुरिन तिनीहरूको पछि नलाग, र उहाँले तिमीहरूको हानि गर्ने गरी तिमीहरूका हातले बनाएका कामबाट उहँलाई रिस नउठाओ ।”

And go not after strange gods to serve them, and to worship them, and provoke me not to anger with the work of your hands; and I will do you no hurt.”

7 तर तिमीहरूले मेरो कुरा सुनेका छैनौ । त्‍यसैले तिमीहरूको हानि गर्न तिमीहरूका हातको कामले उहालाई रिस उठाएका छौ, यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो ।’

But ye have not hearkened to me, saith Jehovah, that ye might provoke me to anger with the works of your hands to your own hurt.

8 त्यसैले सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभु यसो भन्‍नुहुन्छ, ‘तिमीहरूले मेरा वचन नसुनेका हुनाले,

Therefore thus saith Jehovah of hosts: Because ye have not hearkened to my words,

9 हेर्, मेरो दास बेबिलोनका राजा नबूकदनेसरसँगै उत्तरका सबै मानिसलाई जम्मा गर्न एउटा आदेश मैले दिनै लागेको छु, यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो, तिनीहरूलाई म यस देश र यसका बासिन्दाहरूको विरुद्धमा र तिमीहरूका वरिपरि भएका सबै जातिको विरुद्धमा ल्याउनेछु । किनकि म तिनीहरूलाई विनाशको निम्ति अलग गर्नेछु । म तिनीहरूलाई त्रास, गिल्ला र अनन्तको विनाशको पात्रमा परिणत गरिदिनेछु ।

behold, I will send and take all the nations of the North, saith Jehovah, and Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, my servant, and will bring them against this land and its inhabitants, and against all these nations round about, and will utterly destroy them, and make them an astonishment, and a hissing, and a perpetual desolation.

10 म आनन्द र खुसीको सोर, दुलहा र दुलहीको सोर, जाँतो पिंधेको सोर र बत्तिको उज्यालोको अन्त्य गरिदिनेछु ।

Yea, I will take from them the voice of mirth, and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride, the sound of the mill-stones, and the light of the lamp.

11 तब यो सारा देश उजाड र त्रासको पात्र हुनेछ, अनि सत्तरी वर्षसम्म यी जातिहरूले बेबिलोनका राजाको सेवा गर्नेछन् ।

And this whole land shall be a desolation and an astonishment; and these nations shall serve the king of Babylon seventy years.

12 तब सत्तरी वर्ष पुरा भएपछि म बेबिलोनका राजा, र त्यो जाति र कल्दीहरूको देशलाई तिनीहरूको अधर्मको कारण दण्ड दिनेछु र त्‍यसलाई अनन्तको उजाड पार्नेछु, यो परमप्रभुको घोषण हो ।

But when seventy years shall have passed, I will punish the king of Babylon and his nation for their iniquity, saith Jehovah, and the land of the Chaldaeans, and I will make it a perpetual desolation.

13 त्यसपछि मैले त्यस देशको विरुद्धमा बोलेका सबै वचन र यर्मियाले सबै जातिको विरुद्धमा बोलेका अगमवाणीका वचनहरू जुन यो पुस्तकमा लेखिएका छन्, ती सबै पुरा गर्नेछु ।

And I will bring upon that land all my words which I have pronounced against it, all that is written in this book, which Jeremiah hath prophesied against all the nations.

14 किनकि अरू धेरै जातिहरू र महान् राजाहरूले यी जातिहरूका मानिसहरूलाई कमारा तुल्याउनेछन् । तिनीहरूका कामहरू र तिनीहरूका हातका कार्यहरूका कारण म तिनीहरूलाई बदला लिनेछु ।”

For they, even they, shall be brought into subjection to many nations and great kings. I will render to them according to their deeds, and according to the works of their own hands.

15 किनकि परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्‍वरले मलाई यसो भन्‍नुभयो, “मेरो हातबाट क्रोधको मदिराले भरिएको यो कचौरा लि, र मैले तँकहाँ पठाउने सबै जातिलाई यो पिउन लगा ।

For thus hath Jehovah, the God of Israel, said to me: Take this cup of the wine of wrath from my hand; and let all the nations to which I shall send thee drink of it.

16 तिनीहरूले पिउनेछन् र त्‍यसपछि धरमराउने छन्, र मैले तिनीहरूका बिचमा पठाएको तरवारको सामु बौलाहा हुनेछन् ।”

Let them drink, and stagger, and become mad because of the sword which I am about to send among them.

17 त्यसैले मैले परमप्रभुको हातबाट कचौरा लिएँ, र ती सबै जाति जसकहाँ परमप्रभुले मलाई पठाउनुभएको थियो, मैले तिनीहरूलाई पिउन लगाएँ,

So I took the cup from the hand of Jehovah, and gave it to all the nations to drink, to which Jehovah sent me;

18 अर्थात् तिनीहरू आजको दिनमा भएझैं तिनीहरूलाई विनाश, भय अनि गिल्ला र सरापको पात्र बनाउन यरूशलेम, यहूदाका सहरहरू, त्यसका राजाहरू र अधिकारीहरूलाई यो पिउन लगाएँ ।

to Jerusalem and to the cities of Judah, and to the kings thereof, and the princes thereof, to make them a desolation, and an astonishment, and a hissing, and a curse; [[as it is this day.]]

19 अरू जातिहरूले पनि यसलाई पिउनुपर्‍यो, अर्थात् मिश्रका राजा फारो, र उसका सेवकहरू, अधिकारीहरू र उसका सबै मानिस,

To Pharaoh, king of Egypt, and to his servants, and to his princes, and to all his people,

20 विभिन्‍न जातका सबै मिश्रित मानिस, र ऊज देशका सबै राजा, पलिश्तीहरू अश्कलोन, गाजा, एक्रोन र अश्दोदका बाँकी रहेकाहरू सबै राजा,

and all the allied people; and to all the kings of the land of Uz, and to all the kings of the land of the Philistines, and to Askelon, and to Gaza, and to Ekron, and to the remnant of Ashdod;

21 एदोम, मोआब र अम्मोनका मानिसहरू,

to Edom, and to Moab, and to the children of Ammon;

22 टुरोस र सीदोनका राजाहरू, समुद्रपारि किनाराका सबै राजा,

and to all the kings of Tyre, and to all the kings of Sidon, and to the kings of the lands which are beyond the sea;

23 ददान, तेमा र बूज, तिनीहरूका शिरका किनाराहरूमा कपाल काट्नेहरू सबैले यसलाई पिउनुपर्‍यो ।

to Dedan, and to Tema, and to Buz, and to all that shave the cheek;

24 यसबाहेक, अरबका सबै राजा, उजाड-स्थानमा बस्‍ने मिश्रित मानिसहरूका सबै राजा,

and to all the kings of Arabia, and to all the kings of the allied people who dwell in the desert;

25 जिम्रीका सबै राजा, एलामका सबै राजा, मादीका सबै राजा,

and to all the kings of Zimri, and to all the kings of Elam, and to all the kings of Media;

26 उत्तरका, नजिक र टाढा बस्‍ने सबै राजा, पृथ्वीमा हुने सबै राज्यहरूले तिनीहरूका भाइसँगै परमप्रभुको हातको कचौरा पिउनुपर्‍यो । अन्त्यमा, बेबिलोनका राजाले पनि त्यस कचौरालाई पिउनेछ ।

and to all the kings of the North, those that are near, and those that are afar off with respect to each other, and to all the kingdoms of the earth which are upon the face of the ground; and the king of Sheshach shall drink after them.

27 परमप्रभुले मलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “अब तैंले तिनीहरूलाई यसो भन्‍नुपर्छ, 'सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्‍वर यसो भन्‍नुहुन्छः पिओ र मात, अनि बान्त गर, लडिबडि गर, र मैले तिमीहरूका बिचमा पठाउँदै गरेको तरवारको सामु खडा नहोओ ।'

And say to them, Thus saith Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel: Drink ye and be drunken, and vomit, and fall to rise no more because of the sword which I am about to send among you.

28 तब तिनीहरूले पिउनलाई तेरो हातबाट कचौरा लिन इन्कार गरे भने, तैंले तिनीहरूलाई यसो भन्‍नू, 'सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभु यसो भन्‍नुहुन्छः तिमीहरूले निश्‍चय पनि यसलाई पिउनैपर्छ ।

And if they refuse to take the cup from thy hand to drink, then say to them, Thus saith Jehovah of hosts: Ye shall surely drink!

29 किनकि हेर, मेरो नाउँद्वारा कहलाइने सहरमाथि मैले विपत्ति ल्याउनै लागेको छु, र के तिमीहरू आफूचाहिं दण्डबाट उम्कने छौ र? तिमीहरू उम्कने छैनौ, किनकि देशका सबै बासिन्दाको विरुद्धमा म एउटा तरवार पठाउँदैछु, यो सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो ।'

For behold, upon the city which is called by my name I begin to bring evil; and shall ye go wholly unpunished? Ye shall not go unpunished; for I am about to call the sword upon all the inhabitants of the earth, saith Jehovah of hosts.

30 तिनीहरूका विरुद्धमा तैंले यी सबै वचनको अगमवाणी बोल्‍नुपर्छ र तिनीहरूलाई यसो भन्‍नुपर्छ, 'परमप्रभु उच्‍च ठाउँहरूबाट गर्जनुहुनेछ, र आफ्नो पवित्र बासस्थानबाट उहाँको स्‍वरले उहाँले चर्को गरी कराउनुहुनेछ, अनि आफ्ना जातिको विरुद्धमा उहाँ जोडसित गर्जनुहुनेछ, र अङ्गुर पेल्‍नेहरूजस्तै पृथ्वीमा बस्‍ने सबैको विरुद्धमा उहाँले चर्को गरी कराउनुहुनेछ ।

Therefore, prophesy against them all these words, and say to them: —Jehovah shall roar from on high, From his holy habitation shall he utter his voice; He shall roar aloud against his dwelling-place; A shout like that of vintagers shall he raise Against all the inhabitants of the earth.

31 युद्धको आवाज पृथ्वीको कुना-कुनासम्म गुन्‍जिनेछ, किनकि परमप्रभुले जाति-जातिहरूको विरुद्धमा अभियोग लगाउनुहुन्‍छ, र सबै मानिसमाथि इन्साप ल्याउनुहुने छ, अनि दुष्‍टहरूलाई उहाँले तरवारले काट्नुहुनेछ, यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो ।’

An outcry shall reach to the ends of the earth; For Jehovah hath a controversy with the nations; He entereth into judgment with all flesh; The wicked will he give up to the sword, saith Jehovah.

32 सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभु यसो भन्‍नुहुन्छ, 'हेर, विपत्ति एक जातिदेखि अर्को जातिकहाँ जाँदैछ, र पृथ्वीका पल्‍लो कुनाबाट प्रचण्ड आँधी सुरु हुँदैछ ।

Thus saith Jehovah of hosts: Behold, evil shall go forth from nation to nation, And a great whirlwind shall be raised up from the extremities of the earth.

33 तब त्यस दिन परमप्रभुद्वारा मारिएकाहरू पृथ्वीको एउटा कुनादेखि अर्को कुनासम्म हुनेछन् । तिनीहरूका निम्ति शोक गरिने, जम्मा गरने र गाडिनेछैन । तिनीहरू भुइँमा मलजस्तै हुनेछन् ।

At that day shall the slain of Jehovah lie From one end of the earth to the other end of the earth; They shall not be lamented, nor gathered, nor buried; They shall be dung upon the ground.

34 हे गोठालाहरू हो, विलाप गर, मदतको लागि कराओ । बगालका अगुवाहरू हो, धुलोमा लडीबडी गर, किनकि तिमीहरूको हत्या गरिने दिन आएको छ । तिमीहरू माटोको भाँडाझैं खस्दा छरपष्‍ट हुनेछौ ।

Howl, O ye shepherds, and cry! Roll yourselves in the dust, ye leaders of the flock, For your time to be slaughtered has come! And I will scatter you, and ye shall fall like a goodly vessel.

35 गोठालाहरूका लागि कुनै शरणस्थान छैन । बगालका अगुवाहरूका लागि त्यहाँ भाग्‍ने ठाउँ हुनेछैन ।

The shepherds shall have no way to flee, Nor the leaders of the flock to escape.

36 गोठालाहरूको रुवाइ र बगालका अगुवाहरूको विलाप सुन, किनकि परमप्रभुले तिनीहरूका खर्कहरू नष्‍ट पार्दै हुनुहुन्छ ।

[[Hark!]] the voice of the cry of the shepherds, And the wailing of the leaders of the flock, Because Jehovah layeth waste their pasture!

37 त्यसैले परमप्रभुको डरलाग्दो रिसको कारणले शान्तिमय खर्कहरू उजाड पारिनेछन् ।

Yea, the peaceful pastures are destroyed Because of the fierce anger of Jehovah.

38 जवान सिंहले झैं उहाँले आफ्नो ठाउँ छाड्नुभएको छ, किनकि अत्याचारीको रिस र उहाँको बल्दो क्रोधको कारणले तिनीहरूको देश त्रासको ठाउँ हुनेछ ।

He hath left, like a lion, his covert; For their land is become desolate, Because of the wrath of the destroying sword, And because of the fierceness of his anger.
