यर्मिया 26
1 योशियाहका छोरा यहोयाकीमको शासनकालको सुरुमा परमप्रभुको यो वचन मकहाँ आयो,
When Jehoiakim, the son of Josiah, king of Judah, first became king, this word came from the Lord, saying,
2 “परमप्रभु यसो भन्नुहुन्छ, 'मेरो मन्दिरको चोकमा खडा हो र मेरो मन्दिरमा आराधना गर्ने आउने यहूदाका सबै सहरको बारेमा भन् । तिनीहरूलाई भन्न मैले तँलाई आज्ञा गरेका सबै वचन घोषणा गर् । एउटै शब्द पनि नछोड ।
This is what the Lord has said: Take your place in the open square of the Lord's house and say to all the towns of Judah, who come into the Lord's house for worship, everything I give you orders to say to them: keep back not a word;
3 सयद तिनीहरूले सुन्नेछन्, अनि हरेक मानिस आफ्ना दुष्ट चालहरूबाट फर्कनेछन्, यसरी तिनीहरूका अभ्यासको दुष्टताको कारणले मैले तिनीहरूमाथि ल्याउने योजना गरेको विपत्ति ल्याउनबाट मैले आफ्नो मन म बद्लनेछु ।
It may be that they will give ear, and that every man will be turned from his evil way, so that my purpose of sending evil on them because of the evil of their doings may be changed.
4 त्यसैले तैंले तिनीहरूलाई यसो भन्नुपर्छ, 'परमप्रभु यसो भन्नुहुन्छः मैले तिमीहरूको अगि राखिदिएको मेरो व्यवस्थाअनुसार हिंड्नलाई तिमीहरूले मेरो कुरा सुनेनौ भने,
And you are to say to them, This is what the Lord has said: If you do not give ear to me and go in the way of my law which I have put before you,
5 मैले तिमीहरूकहाँ निरन्तर रूपमा पठाइरहेका मेरा दास, अगमवक्ताहरूका वचनहरू तिमीहरूले सुनेनौ भने, तर तिमीहरूले सुनेका छैनौ,
And give ear to the words of my servants the prophets whom I send to you, getting up early and sending them, though you gave no attention;
6 तब म यो मन्दिरलाई शीलोजस्तै बनाउनेछु । म यस सहरलाई पृथ्वीका सबै जातिको दृष्टिमा श्रापको पात्र बनाउनेछु' ।”
Then I will make this house like Shiloh, and will make this town a curse to all the nations of the earth.
7 यर्मियाले परमप्रभुको मन्दिरमा यी वचन घोषणा गरेका पुजारीहरू, अगमवक्ताहरू र सबै मानिसले सुने ।
And in the hearing of the priests and the prophets and all the people, Jeremiah said these words in the house of the Lord.
8 त्यसैले जब परमप्रभुले यर्मियालाई भन्नू भनी आज्ञा गर्नुभएका वचन तिनले घोषणा गरेर सके, तब पुजारीहरू, अगमवक्ताहरू र सबै मानिसले तिनलाई समाते र भने, “तँ निश्चय नै मर्नेछस् ।
Now, when Jeremiah had come to the end of saying everything the Lord had given him orders to say to all the people, the priests and the prophets and all the people took him by force, saying, Death will certainly be your fate.
9 यो मन्दिर शीलोझैं हुनेछ र यो सहर बासिन्दारहित उजाड हुनेछ भनेर किन परमप्रभुको नाउँमा अगमवाणी गरिस्?” किनकि सबै मानिसले परमप्रभुको मन्दिरमा यर्मियाको विरुद्धमा भिड जम्मा गरेका थिए ।
Why have you said in the name of the Lord, This house will be like Shiloh, and this land a waste with no one living in it? And all the people had come together to Jeremiah in the house of the Lord.
10 तब यहूदाका अधिकारीहरूले यो खबर सुने, र तिनीहरू राजाको महलदेखि परमप्रभुको मन्दिरमा गए । तिनीहरू परमप्रभुको मन्दिरको नयाँ मूल ढोकामा बसे ।
And the rulers of Judah, hearing of these things, came up from the king's house to the house of the Lord, and took their seats by the new door of the Lord's house.
11 पुजारीहरू र अगमवक्ताहरूले अधिकारीहरू र सबै मानिससँग बोले । तिनीहरूले भने, “यो मानिसलाई मार्नु ठिक छ, किनकि यसले यो सहरको विरुद्धमा अगमवाणी बोलेका छ, जस्तो तपाईंहरूले आफ्नै कानले सुन्नुभएको छ ।”
Then the priests and the prophets said to the rulers and to all the people, The right fate for this man is death; for he has said words against this town in your hearing.
12 त्यसैले यर्मियाले सबै अधिकारी र सबै मानिससँग बोले र भने, “तपाईंहरूले सुन्नुभएका यी वचन भन्न परमप्रभुले मलाई यो मन्दिर र यो सहरको विरुद्धमा अगमवाणी बोल्न पठाउनुभएको छ ।
Then Jeremiah said to all the rulers and to all the people, The Lord has sent me as his prophet to say against this house and against this town all the words which have come to your ears.
13 त्यसैले अब, आ-आफ्ना चाल र अभ्यासहरू सुधार्नुहोस् र परमप्रभु तपाईंहरूका परमेश्वरको सोर सुन्नुहोस्, ताकि उहाँले तपाईंहरूको विरुद्धमा घोषणा गर्नुभएको विपत्तिको विषयमा उहाँले आफ्नो मन बद्लनुहुनेछ ।
So now, make a change for the better in your ways and your doings, and give ear to the voice of the Lord your God; then the Lord will let himself be turned from the decision he has made against you for evil.
14 मेरो आफ्नै बारेमा, मलाई हेर्नुहोस्, म आफै तपाईंहरूकै हातमा छु । तपाईंहरूको दृष्टिमा जे ठिक र उचित लाग्छ, मलाई त्यही गर्नुहोस् ।
As for me, here I am in your hands: do with me whatever seems good and right in your opinion.
15 तर तपाईंहरूले निश्चय नै जान्नुपर्छ, कि तपाईंहरूले मलाई मार्नुभयो भने, तब तपाईंहरूले निर्दोष रगतको दोष आफैमा, यो सहरमा र यहाँका बासिन्दाहरूमा ल्याउँदै हुनुहुन्छ, र किनकि तपाईंहरूले सुन्ने गरी यी वचन घोषणा गर्न साँच्चै नै परमप्रभुले मलाई तपाईंहरूकहाँ पठाउनुभएको हो ।”
Only be certain that, if you put me to death, you will make yourselves and your town and its people responsible for the blood of one who has done no wrong: for truly, the Lord has sent me to you to say all these words in your ears.
16 तब अधिकारीहरू र सबै मानिसले पुजारीहरू र अगमवक्ताहरूलाई भने, “यो मानिस मर्न लायक छैन, किनकि उसले परमप्रभु हाम्रा परमेश्वरको नाउँमा यी कुराहरूको घोषणा गरेको छ ।”
Then the rulers and all the people said to the priests and the prophets, It is not right for this man to be put to death: for he has said words to us in the name of the Lord our God.
17 तब देशका धर्म-गुरुहरूका माझबाट मानिसहरू खडा भए, र सारा मानिसहरूको सभालाई भने,
Then some of the responsible men of the land got up and said to all the meeting of the people,
18 तिनीहरूले भने “मोरेशेतका मीकाले यहूदाका राजा हिजकियाको शासनकालमा अगमवाणी बोल्दै थिए । तिनले यहूदाका सबै मानिससँग बोले र भने, 'सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभु यसो भन्नुहुन्छः सियोन जोतिएको खेतझैं हुनेछ, यरूशलेमचाहिं गिटीको थुप्रो हुनेछ र मन्दिरको डाँडाचाहिं झाडीझैं हुनेछ ।'
Micah the Morashtite, who was a prophet in the days of Hezekiah, king of Judah, said to all the people of Judah, This is what the Lord of armies has said: Zion will become like a ploughed field, and Jerusalem will become a mass of broken walls, and the mountain of the house like the high places of the woodland.
19 के यहूदाका राजा हिजकिया र यहूदाका सारा मानिसले तिनलाई मारे त? के तिनले परमप्रभुको भय मान्ने काम गरे र परमप्रभुले तिनीहरूमाथि ल्याउने घोषणा गर्नुभएको विपत्ति ल्याउनबाट उहाँको मन बद्लने गरी के तिनले परमप्रभुको मुहारलाई शान्त पारेनन् र? यसरी हामी आफ्नै प्राणको विरुद्धमा अझै ठुलो दुष्ट काम गर्ने र?”
Did Hezekiah and all Judah put him to death? did he not in the fear of the Lord make prayer for the grace of the Lord, and the Lord let himself be turned from the decision he had made against them for evil? By this act we might do great evil against ourselves.
20 त्यसै बेला त्यहाँ परमप्रभुको नाउँमा अगमवाणी बोल्ने अर्का मानिस, किर्यत-यारीमा बस्ने शमायाहका छोरा उरियाह पनि थिए । यर्मियाका वचनहरूसित सहमत हुने गरी तिनले पनि यस सहर र यस देशको विरुद्धमा अगमवाणी बोले ।
And there was another man who was a prophet of the Lord, Uriah, the son of Shemaiah of Kiriath-jearim; he said against this town and against this land all the words which Jeremiah had said:
21 तर जब राजा यहोयाकीम, तिनका सबै सिपाही र अधिकारीहरूले तिनको वचन सुने, तब राजाले तिनलाई मार्न खोजे, तर उरियाहले यो कुरा सुने र तिनी डराए । त्यसैले तिनी भागे र मिश्रमा गए ।
And when his words came to the ears of Jehoiakim the king and all his men of war and his captains, the king would have put him to death; but Uriah, hearing of it, was full of fear and went in flight into Egypt:
22 तब राजा यहोयाकीमले मिश्रमा अक्बोरका छोरा एल्नातान र त्यसका साथमा केही मानिसहरू उरियाहको पछिपछि मिश्रमा पठाए ।
And Jehoiakim the king sent Elnathan, the son of Achbor, and certain men with him, into Egypt.
23 तिनीहरूले उरियाहलाई मिश्रबाट ल्याए र तिनलाई राजा यहोयाकीमकहाँ ल्याए । तब यहोयाकीमले तिनलाई तरवारले मारे, र तिनको लाशलाई साधारण मानिसका लाशहरू भएको ठाउँमा पठाए ।
And they took Uriah out of Egypt and came back with him to Jehoiakim the king; who put him to death with the sword, and had his dead body put into the resting-place of the bodies of the common people.
24 तर शापानका छोरा अहीकामको हात यर्मियासित थियो । त्यसैले तिनलाई मारिनलाई मानिसहरूका हातमा दिइएन ।
But Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, gave Jeremiah his help, so that he was not given into the hands of the people to be put to death.
