यर्मिया 27

1 यहूदाका राजा योशियाहका छोरा सिदकियाहको शासनकालको सुरुमा परमप्रभुको यो वचन यर्मियाकहाँ आयो ।

In the beginning of the reign of Jehoiakim son of Josiah, king of Judah, hath this word been unto Jeremiah from Jehovah, saying,

2 परमप्रभुले मलाई यसो भन्‍नुभयो, “आफ्नो निम्ति डोरीहरू र एउटा जुवा बना । ती तेरो घाँटीमा बाँध् ।

'Thus said Jehovah unto me, Make to thee bands and yokes,

3 तब तिनलाई एदोमका राजा, मोआबका राजा, अम्मोनका मानिसहरूका राजा, टुरोसका राजा र सीदोनका राजाकहाँ पठा । यहूदाका राजा सिदकियाहकहाँ यरूशलेममा आउने ती राजाहरूका दूतहरूको हातद्वारा ती पठा ।

And thou hast put them on thy neck, and hast sent them unto the king of Edom, and unto the king of Moab, and unto the king of the sons of Ammon, and unto the king of Tyre, and unto the king of Zidon, by the hand of messengers who are coming in to Jerusalem, unto Zedekiah king of Judah;

4 तिनीहरूका मालिकहरूका लागि तिनीहरूलाई आज्ञा दे र यसो भन्, 'सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्‍वर यसो भन्‍नुहुन्छः तिमीहरूले आ-आफ्ना मालिकहरूलाई यसो भन्‍नुपर्छ,

And thou hast commanded them for their lords, saying, Thus said Jehovah of Hosts, God of Israel,

5 'मेरो महाशक्ति र पसारिएको पाखुराद्वारा म आफैले पृथ्वी बनाएँ । मैले पृथ्वीका मानिसहरू र जनावरहरू पनि बनाएँ, र मेरो दृष्‍टिमा ठिक लागेको जोकसैलाई म यो सुम्पिदिन्छु ।

Thus do ye say unto your lords, I — I have made the earth with man, and the cattle that [are] on the face of the earth, by My great power, and by My stretched-out arm, and I have given it to whom it hath been right in Mine eyes.

6 त्यसैले अब म आफैले यी सबै देश मेरो दास, बेबिलोनका राजा नबूकदनेसरको हातमा दिंदैछु । साथै, त्यसको सेवा गर्नलाई जमिनका जीवित प्राणीहरू पनि म त्यसलाई दिंदैछु ।

'And now, I — I have given all these lands into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, My servant, and also the beast of the field I have given to him to serve him;

7 किनकि उसको देशको निम्‍ति समय नआएसम्म सबै जातिले ऊ, उसको छोरो र उसको नातिको सेवा गर्नेछन् । त्यसपछि धेरै जातिहरू र महान् राजाहरूले त्यसलाई अधीन गर्नेछन् ।

And served him have all the nations, and his son, and his son's son, till the coming in of the time of his land, also it; and done service for him have many nations and great kings.

8 त्‍यसैले बेबिलोनका राजा नबूकदनेसरको सेवा नगर्ने जाति वा राज्य र बेबिलोनका राजाको जुवामुनि आफ्नो काँध थाप्‍न नमान्‍ने जोकसैलाई उसको हातद्वारा त्‍यो नष्‍ट नहुञ्जेल म तरवार, अनिकाल र विपत्तिले दण्ड दिनेछु, यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो ।

And it hath come to pass, the nation and the kingdom that do not serve him — Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon — and that which putteth not its neck into the yoke of the king of Babylon, with sword, and with famine, and with pestilence, I lay a charge on that nation — an affirmation of Jehovah — till I consume them by his hand.

9 त्यसैले 'बेबिलोनका राजाको सेवा नगर्नू' भनेर तिमीहरूसँग बोलिरहने तिमीहरूका अगमवक्ताहरू, जोखना हेर्नेहरू, सपनाको अर्थ खोल्नेहरू, भूतप्रेत खेलाउनेहरू र जादुगरी गर्नेहरूको कुरा नसुन्‍नू ।

'And ye, ye do not hearken unto your prophets, and unto your diviners, and unto your dreamers, and unto your observers of clouds, and unto your sorcerers who are speaking unto you, saying, Ye do not serve the king of Babylon, —

10 तिमीहरूलाई आफ्नो देशबाट टाढा पठाउन भनेर तिनीहरूले तिमीहरूलाई झूटा कुराको अगमवाणी बोल्दैछन्, किनकि म तिमीहरूलाई धपाउनेछु, र तिमीहरू मर्नेछौ ।

For falsehood they are prophesying to you, so as to remove you far from off your ground, and I have driven you out, and ye have perished.

11 तर बेबिलोनका राजाको जुवामुनि आफ्नो काँध थाप्‍ने र उसको सेवा गर्ने जातिलाई चाहिं आफ्‍नै देशमा विश्राम गर्न म दिनेछु, यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो, र तिनीहरूले त्‍यसको खनजोत गर्नेछन्, र त्‍यहाँ आफ्ना घरहरू बनाउनेछन्' ।”

And the nation that causeth its neck to enter into the yoke of the king of Babylon, and hath served him — I have left it on its ground — an affirmation of Jehovah — and it hath tilled it, and dwelt in it.'

12 त्यसैले यहूदाका राजा सिदकियाहसित मैले बोलें र तिनलाई यो सन्देश दिएँ, “आफ्‍नो काँधमा बेबिलोनका राजाको जुवा थाप र ऊ र उसका मानिसहरूको सेवा गर, अनि तिमी बाँच्नेछौ ।

And unto Zedekiah king of Judah I have spoken according to all these words, saying, 'Cause your necks to enter into the yoke of the king of Babylon, and serve him and his people, and live.

13 तिमी किन मर्ने—तिमी र तिम्रा मानिसहरू तरवार, अनिकाल र विपत्तिले किन मर्ने, जसरी बेबिलोनका राजाको सेवा गर्न इन्कार गर्ने जातिको विषयमा मैले घोषणा गरेको छु?

Why do ye die, thou and thy people, by sword, by famine, and by pestilence, as Jehovah hath spoken concerning the nation that doth not serve the king of Babylon?

14 ती अगमवक्ताहरूको वचन नसुन जसले तिमीसित बोल्‍छन् र यसो भन्‍छन्, 'बेबिलोनका राजाको सेवा नगर,' किनकि तिनीहरूले तिमीलाई झूटो कुराको अगमवाणी बोल्दैछन् ।

'And ye do not hearken unto the words of the prophets who are speaking unto you, saying, Ye do not serve the king of Babylon, — for falsehood they are prophesying to you.

15 ‘किनकि यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो, मैले तिनीहरूलाई पठाएको छैनँ, किनकि तिनीहरूले मेरो नाउँमा झूटा कुरो अगमवाणी बोल्दैछन् जसको कारणले म तँलाई धपाउनेछु, अनि तिमी र तिम्रो निम्‍ति अगमवाणी बोलिरहने अगमवक्ताहरू दुवै मर्नेछौ' ।”

For I have not sent them — an affirmation of Jehovah — and they are prophesying in My name falsely, so as to drive you out, and ye have perished, ye, and the prophets who are prophesying to you.'

16 मैले पुजारीहरू र सबै मानिसहरूलाई यो कुरा घोषणा गरें र यसो भनें, “परमप्रभु यसो भन्‍नुहुन्छः तिमीहरूका अगमवक्ताहरूको वचन नसुन जसले तिमीहरूका निम्‍ति अगमवाणी बोल्छन् र यसो भन्‍छन्, 'हेर, परमप्रभुको मन्दिरका सामानहरू अहिले बेबिलोनबाट फर्काइँदैछन् ।' तिनीहरूले तिमीहरूलाई झूटो कुरा अगमवाणी बोल्दै छन् ।

And unto the priests, and unto all this people, I have spoken, saying, 'Thus said Jehovah, Ye do not hearken unto the words of your prophets, who are prophesying to you, saying, Lo, the vessels of the house of Jehovah are brought back from Babylon now in haste, for falsehood they are prophesying to you.

17 तिनीहरूको कुरा नसुन्‍नू । तिमीहरूले बेबिलोनका राजाको सेवा गर्नुपर्छ र बाँच्नुपर्छ । यो सहर किन भग्‍नावशेष हुने?

Ye do not hearken unto them, serve the king of Babylon, and live. Why is this city a waste?

18 तिनीहरू अगमवक्ताहरू हुन्, र परमप्रभुको वचन तिनीहरूकहाँ साँच्‍चै आएको हो भने, यस मन्दिर, यहूदाका राजाको महल र यरूशलेमका सामानहरू बेबिलोनमा नलान भनेर तिनीहरूले सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभुलाई बिन्ती चढाऊन् ।

'And, if they be prophets, and if a word of Jehovah be with them, let them intercede, I pray you, with Jehovah of Hosts, so that the vessels that are left in the house of Jehovah, and [in] the house of the king of Judah, and in Jerusalem, have not gone into Babylon.

19 स्तम्भहरू, 'खँड्कुलो' भनेर चिनिने विशाल बाटा र यसको आधार अनि यस सहरमा बाँकी रहेका सामानहरूका बबारेमा सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभु यसो भन्‍नुहुन्छ—

For thus said Jehovah of Hosts concerning the pillars, and concerning the sea, and concerning the bases, and concerning the rest of the vessels that are left in this city,

20 अर्थात् बेबिलोनका राजा नबूकदनेसरले यहूदाका राजा यहोयाकीमका छोरा यहोयाकीनका साथमा यहूदा र यरूशलेका सबै कुलीनहरूलाई यरूशलेमबाट कैद गरेर बेबिलोनमा लैजाँदा तिनले नलगेका समानहरू ।

That Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon hath not taken, in his removing Jeconiah son of Jehoiakim king of Judah from Jerusalem to Babylon with all the freemen of Judah and Jerusalem,

21 परमप्रभुको मन्दिर, यहूदाका राजाको महल र यरूशलेममा बाँकी रहेका सामानहरूका विषयमा सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्‍वर यसो भन्‍नुहुन्छ,

Surely thus said Jehovah of Hosts, God of Israel, concerning the vessels that are left of the house of Jehovah, and of the house of the king of Judah, and [in] Jerusalem:

22 'ती बेबिलोनमा लगिनेछन्, र ती फर्काइने दिन नआएसम्म ती त्यहीँ नै रहनेछन्, यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो । त्यसपछि म तिनलाई ल्याउनेछु, र तिनलाई यस ठाउँमा पुनर्स्थापित गराउनेछु' ।”

To Babylon they are brought, and there they are till the day of My inspecting them — an affirmation of Jehovah; then I have brought them up, and have brought them back unto this place.'
