यर्मिया 33

1 तब यर्मिया गारदको चोकमा थुनिएकै अवस्थामा परमप्रभुको वचन दोस्रो पटक तिनीकहाँ यसो भनेर आयो,

While I was still being guarded in the courtyard of the palace, Yahweh gave me this second message:

2 “बनाउनुहुने परमप्रभु यसो भन्‍नुहुन्छ— सुदृढ गर्नाका लागि परमप्रभुले रचना गर्नुहुन्छ, परमप्रभु उहाँको नाउँ हो ।

“This is what I, the one who made the earth, who formed/shaped it and put it in its place, say [to the people of Jerusalem]: ‘My name is Yahweh.

3 'मलाई पुकार्, र म तँलाई जवाफ दिनेछु । म तँलाई महान् कुराहरू, तैंले नबुझ्ने रहस्यहरू देखाउनेछु ।'

Call out to me, and [then] I will tell you great and wonderful things that you have not known [before].’

4 किनकि घेरा-मचान र तरवारको कारणले भत्काइएका यस सहरमा भएका घरहरू र यहूदाका राजाहरूका महलहरूको विषयमा परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्‍वर यसो भन्‍नुहुन्छ,

This is what [I, ] Yahweh, the God whom [you] Israeli people [say you belong to], say: ‘[The men in this city] have torn down [some of] their houses, and [even parts of] the king’s palace, to get materials to strengthen the walls around the city, in order that [the soldiers of Babylonia will not be able to break through the walls after they climb up] the ramps that they have built against the walls, and [kill the inhabitants with] their swords.

5 'मेरो क्रोध र मेरो रिसमा लडाइँ गर्न र मैले मार्ने मानिसहरूका लाशहरूले म ती घरहरू भरिदिन कल्दीहरू आउँदैछन्, जति बेला तिनीहरूका सबै दुष्‍टताको कारणले म यस सहरबाट आफ्‍नो अनुहार लुकाउनेछु ।

You are expecting to fight against the army from Babylonia, but [what will happen is that] the houses of this city will be filled with the corpses of the men of this city whom I will [allow to be killed] because I am extremely angry [DOU] with them. I have abandoned them because of all the wicked things that they have done.

6 तर हेर्, मैले निको पार्न र हेरविचार गर्नै लागेको छु, किनकि म तिनीहरूलाई निको पार्नेछु, र तिनीहरूकहाँ प्रचुरता, शान्ति र विश्‍वासयोग्यता ल्याउनेछु ।

However, [there will be a time when] I will cause the people in this city to be healthy and strong again. I will enable them to be prosperous and have peace.

7 यहूदा र इस्राएलको सुदिन म फर्काउनेछु । सुरुमा जस्तै म तिनीहरूलाई निर्माण गर्नेछु ।

I will bring the people of Judah and Israel back from the lands to which they were exiled. I will enable them to rebuild their towns.

8 तब तिनीहरूले मेरो विरुद्धमा गरेका सबै अधर्मबाट म तिनीहरूलाई शुद्ध पार्नेछु । तिनीहरूले मेरो विरुद्धमा गरेका सबै अधर्म र तिनीहरूले मेरो विरुद्धमा चालेका सबै विद्रोहलाई म क्षमा दिनेछु ।

I will get rid of their guilt for all the sins that they have committed against me, and I will forgive them for their sin of rebelling against me.

9 किनकि यो सहर मेरो लागि आनन्दको वस्तु अनि पृथ्वीका सबै जातिका लागि प्रशंसाको गीत र सम्मान हुनेछ । मैले यसको लागि गर्ने सबै असल कुराहरू तिनीहरूले सुन्‍ने छन् । त्यसपछि मैले यस सहरलाई दिने सबै असल कुरा र शान्तिको कारणले तिनीहरू डराउनेछन्, र थरथर काँम्‍नेछन् ।'

[When that happens], all the nations of the world will rejoice, and they will praise me and honor me. They will hear about all the good things that I have done for this city and, because of that, they will revere me, and they will tremble because I have caused [the people in this city] to have peace and to prosper.’

10 परमप्रभु यसो भन्‍नुहुन्छ, ‘तिमीहरूले यसो भनिरहेको यस ठाउँको विषयमा, “मानिस वा पशु नभएको यो उजाड-स्थान हो,” यहूदाका सहरहरू र न त मानिस नत पशु भएर भएर उजाड भएका यरूशलेमका सडकहरूमा, त्‍यहाँ फेरि पनि आवाज सुनिनेछ,

And this is also what [I], Yahweh, say: ‘You people have said that this is a land where there are no [longer] any people or animals. But in the streets of Jerusalem that are now completely empty [DOU], and in the [other] towns in Judah,

11 आनन्द र हर्षको सोर, दुलहा र दुलहीको सोर अनि परमप्रभुको मन्दिरमा यसो भन्दै धन्यवादको बलि ल्याउनेहरूको सोर सुनिनेछ, 'सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभुलाई धन्यवाद चढाओ, किनकि परमप्रभु असल हुनुहुन्छ, र उहाँको अचुक प्रेम सदासर्वदै रहिरहन्छ ।' किनकि यस देशको सुदिन पहिलेको जस्तै बनाएर पुनर्स्थापित गर्नेछु,’ परमप्रभु भन्‍नुहुन्छ ।

[some day] people will again be happy and laugh. Brides and bridegrooms will [again] sing [joyfully]. And many other people will also sing joyfully as they bring their offerings to me to thank me [for what I have done for them]. [They will sing this song]: “[We] thank you, the Commander of the armies of angels, because you are good [to us]. You faithfully love [us] forever.” [They will sing that] because I will cause [the people of] land to be as prosperous as they were before.’

12 सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभु यसो भन्‍नुहुन्छ, 'अहिले न त मानिस न त पशु भएको यस उजाड-स्थानमा— यसका सबै सहरमा फेरि खर्कहरू हुनेछन्, जहाँ गोठालाहरूले आफ्ना बगालहरू चराउनेछन् ।

This land is [now] desolate. There are no people or animals living here. But [I], the Commander of the armies of angels, say this: ‘In this land there will again be pastures/fields where shepherds will lead their sheep.

13 पहाडी देशका सहरहरू, तराई र नेगेव, बेन्यामीनको इलाका र सारा यरूशलेमको चारैतिर, र यहूदाका सहरहरूमा बगालहरू तिनीहरूको गोठाला गर्नेहरूका हातले गनी-गनीकन चराउनेछन्,’ परमप्रभु भन्‍नुहुन्छ ।

Shepherds will again count their sheep as the sheep walk by, outside the towns in the hilly area, in the western foothills, in the southern desert area, in the land [where the descendants] of Benjamin live, around Jerusalem, and outside [all] the [other] towns in Judah.’ [That will surely happen because I], Yahweh, have said it.

14 ‘हेर्, यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो, यस्‍ता दिनहरू आउँदैछन्, जति बेला मैले इस्राएलको घराना र यहूदाको घरानालाई प्रतिज्ञा गरेको कुरा पुरा गर्नेछु ।

Listen to this! [I], Yahweh, say that there will be a time when I will do for the people of Israel and Judah [all the good things that] I promised to do [for them].

15 ती दिनमा र त्यस बेला म दाऊदको निम्ति एउटा धार्मिक हाँगा लिकाल्‍नेछु, र तिनले देशमा न्याय र धार्मिकता कायम गर्नेछन् ।

At that time [DOU] I will appoint a righteous man who will be a descendant [MET] of King David. Throughout the land, he will do what is just and right.

16 ती दिनमा यहूदा बचाइनेछ, र यरूशलेम सुरक्षामा जिउनेछ, किनकि त्‍यसको नाउँ यो हुनेछ, 'परमप्रभु हाम्रा धार्मिकता हुनुहुन्छ ।'

At that time, [the people of] Judah will be rescued [from their enemies], and [the people of] Jerusalem will be safe. And people will say that the name of the city is ‘Yahweh [is the one who] vindicates/defends us’.

17 किनकि परमप्रभु यसो भन्‍नुहुन्छ, 'इस्राएलको घरानाको सिंहासनमाथि बस्‍न दाऊदको वंशबाट कुनै मानिसको अभाव कदापि हुनेछैन,

And this is [also] what [I], Yahweh, say: ‘There will be descendants of King David ruling [MTY] Israel forever.

18 न त मेरो सामु हर समय होमबलि, अर्घबलि र अन्‍नबलिहरू चढाउन लेवी कुलका पुजारीहरूमा कुनै मानिसको कमी हुनेछ ।'”

And there will always be priests who are descendants of Levi who [stand] in front of me and offer sacrifices that will be completely burned [on the altar] and who will burn grain offerings and [other] sacrifices.’”

19 परमप्रभुको वचन यर्मियाकहाँ यसो भनेर आयो,

[Then] Yahweh gave me this message:

20 “परमप्रभु यसो भन्‍नुहुन्छ, 'तिमीहरूले दिन र रातसित बाँधिएको मेरो करारलाई भङ्ग गर्न सक्यौ, र तोकिएको समयमा फेरि दिन र रात भएनन् भने,

“This is what [I], Yahweh, say: ‘[You] certainly cannot annul my promise/agreement to cause nighttime to follow daytime each day.

21 तब तिमीहरूले मेरा दास दाऊदसित बाँधिएको मेरो करारलाई भङ्ग गर्न सक्‍नेछौ, जसको कारणले उसको सिंहासनमा बस्‍न उसको कुनै छोरो हुनेछैन, र लेवी कुलका पुजारीहरू अर्थात् मेरा दासहरूसित बाँधिएको मेरो करार पनि भङ्ग हुनेछ ।

Similarly, you cannot annul the promise/agreement [that I made] with King David, who served me [well], that there will always be descendants of his who will rule [Judah]. The same is true for my agreement with the descendants of Levi who are priests who do work for me.

22 जसरी आकाशका ताराहरू गन्‍न सकिंदैन, र समुद्र किनारमा बालुवा जोखिन सकिंदैन, त्यसरी नै मेरा दास दाऊद र मेरो सामु सेवा गर्ने लेवीहरूका सन्तानहरूको सङ्ख्या म बढाउनेछु' ।”

No one can count the stars in the sky, and no one can count the grains of sand at the seashore. Similarly, I will cause there to be a huge number of priests who are descendants of David and descendants of Levi who will work for me.’”

23 परमप्रभुको वचन यर्मियाकहाँ यसो भनेर आयो,

Yahweh gave another message to me. He said,

24 “के यी मानिसले भनेका कुरामा तैंले ध्यान दिएको छैनस्? तिनीहरूले भनेका छन्, 'परमप्रभुले चुन्‍नुभएका दुईवटा परिवारलाई उहाँले अहिले त्याग्‍नुभएको छ ।' यसरी तिनीहरूले मेरो मानिसलाई तिरस्कार गर्छन् । तिनीहरूका दृष्‍टमा उनीहरू अब फेरि कुनै एउटा जातिको रूपमा हरेनन् भन्दैछन् ।

“Have you noticed/heard that some people are saying, ‘Yahweh chose two groups, the people [of Judah] and the people [of Israel], and [later] abandoned them.’ They are despising my people and saying that Israel no longer deserves to be considered a nation.

25 म, परमप्रभु यसो भन्‍छु, 'मैले दिन र रातको करार स्थापित नगरेको भए, र मैले स्वर्ग र पृथ्वीका नियमहरू निधो नगरेको भए,

But this is what I say: ‘I will not change my laws that control the day and the night, the sky and the earth.

26 मैले याकूब र मेरा दास दाऊदका सन्तानलाई इन्कार गर्नेथिएँ, र तिनीहरूबाट अब्राहाम, इसहाक र याकूबका सन्तानमाथि राज्‍य गर्न एक जना व्यक्तिलाई ल्याउनेथिइनँ । किनकि म तिनीहरूको सुदिन पुनर्स्थापित गर्नेछु, र तिनीहरूमाथि कृपा देखाउनेछु' ।”

Similarly, I will never abandon the descendants of David or the [other] descendants of Jacob, and I will always allow descendants of David to rule the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. I will bring my people back to their land, and I will act mercifully toward them.’”
