< यर्मिया 34 >
1 बेबिलोनका राजा नबूकदनेसर र तिनका सबै सेना, तिनको अधीनका पृथ्वीमा भएका सबै राज्य र तिनमा भएका सबै मानिसले यरूशलेम र यसका सबै सहरको विरुद्धमा युद्ध सुरु गर्दा यर्मियाकहाँ परमप्रभुको वचन यसो भनेर आयोः
The worde which came vnto Ieremiah from the Lord (when Nebuchad-nezzar King of Babel, and all his hoste, and all the kingdomes of the earth, that were vnder the power of his hand, and all people fought against Ierusalem, and against all the cites thereof) saying,
2 “परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्वर यसो भन्नुहुन्छः जा र यहूदाका राजा सिदकियाहसँग बोल र यसो भन्, 'परमप्रभु यसो भन्नुहुन्छः हेर्, मैले यो सहरलाई बेबिलोनका राजाको हातमा दिनै लागेको छु । उसले यसलाई जलाउनेछ ।
Thus sayth the Lord God of Israel, Goe, and speake to Zedekiah King of Iudah, and tell him, Thus sayth the Lord, Beholde, I will giue this citie into the hand of the King of Babel, and he shall burne it with fire,
3 तँ उसको हातबाट उम्कनेछैनस्, किनकि तँ निश्चय नै समातिनेछस् र उसको हातमा दिइनेछ । तेरा आँखाले बेबिलोनका राजाको आँखालाई हेर्नेछन् । तँ बेबिलोनमा जाँदा उसले तँसित सिधै कुरा गर्नेछ ।'
And thou shall not escape out of his hand, but shalt surely be taken, and deliuered into his hand, and thine eyes shall beholde the face of the King of Babel, and he shall speake with thee mouth to mouth, and thou shalt go to Babel.
4 ए यहूदाका राजा सिदकियाह, परमप्रभुको यो वचन सुन् । तेरो विषयमा परमप्रभु यसो भन्नुहुन्छ, 'तँ तरवारले मारिनेछैनस् ।
Yet heare the worde of the Lord, O Zedekiah, King of Iudah: thus sayth the Lord of thee, Thou shalt not dye by the sword,
5 तँ शान्तिमा मर्नेछस् । तेरा पुर्खाहरू अर्थात् तँभन्दा अगिका राजाहरूको मृत्यु संस्कारमा भएजस्तै तिनीहरूले तेरो लाश जलाउनेछन् । तिनीहरूले भन्नेछन्, 'हाय मालिक!' तिनीहरूले तेरो निम्ति विलाप गर्नेछन् । मैल यो कुरा भनेको छु, यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो ।”
But thou shalt die in peace: and according to the burning for thy fathers the former Kings which were before thee, so shall they burne odours for thee, and they shall lament thee, saying, Oh lorde: for I haue pronounced the worde, sayth the Lord.
6 तब यर्मिया अगमवक्ताले यरूशलेममा यी सबै वचन यहूदाका राजा सिदकियाहलाई घोषणा गरे ।
Then Ieremiah the Prophet spake all these words vnto Zedekiah King of Iudah in Ierusalem,
7 बेबिलोनका राजाका सेनाले यरूशलेम र यहूदाका बाँकी रहेका सबै सहरः लाकीश र आजेकाको विरुद्धमा युद्ध गरे । यहूदाका यी सहर किल्लाबन्दी गरिएका सहरको रूपमा बाँकी रहेका थिए ।
(When the King of Babels hoste fought against Ierusalem, and against all the cities of Iudah, that were left, euen against Lachish, and against Azekah: for these strong cities remained of the cities of Iudah)
8 राजा सिदकियाहले यरूशलेमका सबै मानिससित तिनीहरूको छुटकाराको घोषणा गर्ने करार बाँधेपछि यर्मियाकहाँ परमप्रभुको यो वचन आयो,
This is the worde that came vnto Ieremiah from the Lord, after that the King Zedekiah had made a couenant with all the people, which were at Ierusalem, to proclaime libertie vnto them,
9 हरेक मानिसले आ-आफ्ना हिब्रू कमारा-कमारीलाई फुक्का गर्नुपर्छ । कसैले पनि आफ्नो यहूदी दाजुभाइलाई कमारा राख्नुहुँदैनथ्यो ।
That euery man should let his seruant go free, and euery man his handmayde, which was an Ebrue or an Ebruesse, and that none should serue himselfe of them, to wit, of a Iewe his brother.
10 त्यसैले सबै अगुवा र मानिसहरू यस करारमा संलग्न भए, जसमा तिनीहरू हरेकले आ-आफ्ना कमारा-कमारी फुक्का गर्नुपर्थ्यो, जसले गर्दा तिनीहरू फेरि कमारा हुनेछैनन् । तिनीहरूले पालन गरे र तिनीहरूलाई फुक्का गरे ।
Now when all the princes, and all the people which had agreed to the couenant, heard that euery one should let his seruant go free, and euery one his handmaide, and that none should serue them selues of them any more, they obeyed and let them go.
11 तर यसपछि तिनीहरूले आफ्नो मन बद्ले । तिनीहरूले फुक्का गरिदिएका कमारा-कमारीहरूलाई फर्काएर ल्याए, र तिनीहरूलाई फेरि कमारा-कमारी हुन जबरदस्ती गरे ।
But afterwarde they repented and caused the seruants and the handmayds, whom they had let go free, to returne, and helde them in subiection as seruants and handmayds.
12 त्यसैले परमप्रभुको वचन यर्मियाकहाँ यसो भनेर आयो,
Therefore the worde of the Lord came vnto Ieremiah from the Lord, saying,
13 “परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्वर यसो भन्नुहुन्छ, मैले तिमीहरूका पुर्खाहरूलाई मिश्रदेश अर्थात् दासत्वको देशबाट निकालेर ल्याएको दिनमा म आफैले तिनीहरूसित एउटा करार बाँधें । त्यसति बेला मैले भनेको थिएँ,
Thus saith the Lord God of Israel, I made a couenant with your fathers, when I brought them out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of seruants, saying,
14 'प्रत्येक सात वर्षको अन्त्यमा हरेक मानिसले आफ्नो हिब्रू दाजुभाइलाई मुक्त गरिदिनू, जसले आफैलाई तँकहाँ बेचेको छ र छ वर्षसम्म तेरो सेवा गरेको छ । त्यसलाई स्वतन्त्र गराएर पठाउनू ।' तर तिमीहरूका पुर्खाहरूले मेरो कुरा सुनेनन् वा मेरा कुरा सुन्नमा आफ्ना ध्यान लगानन् ।
At the terme of seuen yeres let ye go, euery man his brother an Ebrewe which hath bene solde vnto thee: and when he hath serued the sixe yeres, thou shalt let him go free from thee: but your fathers obeyed me not, neither inclined their eares.
15 तर तिमीहरू आफैले चाहिं पश्चात्ताप गरेका र मेरो दृष्टिमा जे ठिक छ, सो गर्न थालेका छौ । तिमीहरू हरेकले आफ्नो छिमेकीलाई स्वतन्त्रताको घोषणा गर्यौ, र मेरो नाउँद्वारा कहलाइने मन्दिरमा तिमीहरूले मेरो सामु करार बाँध्यौ ।
And ye were nowe turned, and had done right in my sight in proclayming libertie, euery man to his neighbour, and ye had made a couenant before mee in the house, whereupon my Name is called.
16 तर तिमीहरू तर्केर गयौ र मेरो नाउँलाई दुषित पार्यौ । तिमीहरूले हरेक मानिसलाई आ-आफ्ना कमारा-कमारी तिनीहरूका आफ्ना इच्छाले जहाँ गएका थिए त्यहाँबाट तिनीहरूलाई तिमीहरूले फिर्ता ल्याउन लगायौ । तिमीहरूले फेरि तिनीहरूलाई जबरदस्ती आफ्ना कमारा तुल्यायौ ।'
But ye repented, and polluted my Name: for ye haue caused euery man his seruant, and euery man his handmayde, whom ye had set at libertie at their pleasure, to returne, and holde them in subiection to bee vnto you as seruantes and as handmaydes.
17 त्यसकारण परमप्रभु यसो भन्नुहुन्छ, 'तिमीहरू आफूले पनि मेरो कुरा सुनेका छैनौ । तिमीहरू हरेकले आफ्ना दाजुभाइ र इस्राएली बन्धुलाई स्वतन्त्रताको घोषणा गर्नुपर्थ्यो । त्यसैले हेर्, अब मैले तिमीहरूका निम्ति स्वतन्त्रताको घोषणा गर्नै लागेको छु, यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो । तिमीहरूलाई तरवार, विपत्ति र अनिकालबाट मर्ने स्वतन्त्रताको घोषणा गर्दैछु, किनकि म तिमीहरूलाई पृथ्वीका हरेक राज्यको दृष्टिमा घिनलाग्दो पात्र बनाउनेछु ।
Therefore thus saith the Lord, Ye haue not obeyed mee, in proclayming freedome euery man to his brother, and euery man to his neighbour: beholde, I proclaime a libertie for you, saith the Lord, to the sworde, to the pestilence, and to the famine, and I will make you a terrour to all the kingdomes of the earth.
18 त्यसपछि मेरो करार भङ्ग गरेका मानिसहरू, मेरो सामु गरेका करारका वचन पुरा नगर्ने ती मानिसहरूसँग म त्यही साँढेसित गरेजस्तै व्यवहार गर्नेछु, जसलाई तिनीहरूले दुई फ्याक पारे र त्यसको बिचबाट हिंडे,
And I will giue those men that haue broken my couenant, and haue not kept the wordes of the couenant, which they had made before me, when they cut the calfe in twaine, and passed betweene the partes thereof:
19 र यहूदा र यरूशलेमका अगुवाहरू, नपुंसकहरू र पुजारीहरू अनि देशका सबै मानिस त्यही दुई फ्याक गरिएको साँढेको बिचबाट हिंडे ।
The princes of Iudah, and the princes of Ierusalem, the Eunuches, and the Priestes, and all the people of the lande, which passed betweene the partes of the calfe,
20 म तिनीहरूलाई तिनीहरूका शत्रुहरू र तिनीहरूको ज्यान लिन खोज्नेहरूका हातमा दिनेछु । तिनीहरूका लाश आकाशका चराहरू र जमिनका पशुहरूका लागि आहारा हुनेछन् ।
I wil euen giue them into the hand of their enemies, and into the handes of them that seeke their life: and their dead bodies shalbe for meate vnto the foules of the heauen, and to the beastes of the earth.
21 म यहूदाका राजा सिदकियाह र त्यसका अगुवाहरूलाई तिनीहरूका शत्रुहरूका हातमा, र तिनीहरूको ज्यान लिन खोज्नेहरूका हातमा र तिमीहरूका विरुद्धमा खडा भएका बेबिलोनका राजाका सेनाको हातमा दिनेछु ।
And Zedekiah King of Iudah, and his princes will I giue into the hand of their enemies, and into the hande of them that seeke their life, and into the hande of the King of Babels hoste, which are gone vp from you.
22 यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो, हेर् मैले एउटा आज्ञा दिनै लागेको छु, र यस सहरको विरुद्धमा युद्ध गर्न र यसलाई कब्जा गर्न र यसलाई जलाउनलाई म तिनीहरूलाई यहाँ फर्काएर ल्याउन लागेको छु । किनकि म यहूदाका सहरहरूलाई भग्नावशेषको ठाउँ बनाउनेछु, जसमा बासिन्दाहरू हुनेछैनन् ।”
Beholde, I will commande, saith the Lord, and cause them to returne to this citie, and they shall fight against it, and take it, and burne it with fire: and I will make the cities of Iudah desolate without an inhabitant.
