< यर्मिया 43 >
1 परमप्रभु तिनीहरूका परमेश्वरले यर्मियालाई भन्न दिनुभएका परमप्रभु तिनीहरूका परमेश्वरका सबै वचन तिनले सबै मानिसहरूलाई भनेर सिद्ध्याए ।
It happened that Jeremiah finished proclaiming to all the people all the words of Yahweh their God that Yahweh their God had told him to say.
2 होशयाहका छोरा अजर्याह, कारेहका छोरा योहानान र सबै अहङ्कारी मानिसले यर्मियालाई भने, “तिमी झूट बोल्दैछौ । 'मिश्रदेशमा बसोबास गर्न त्यहाँ नजाओ' भनेर परमप्रभु हाम्रा परमेश्वरले तिमीलाई भन्न पठाउनुभएको छैन ।
Azariah son of Hoshaiah, Johanan son of Kareah, and all the arrogant men said to Jeremiah, “You are telling lies. Yahweh our God has not sent you to say, 'Do not go to Egypt to live there.'
3 हामीलाई बेबिलोनमा बन्दी बनाएर लैजान र मार्नका लागि कल्दीहरूको हातमा सुम्पिदिन नेरियाहका छोरा बारूकले तिमीलाई हाम्रो विरुद्धमा उक्साउँदैछन् ।”
For Baruch son of Neriah is inciting you against us to deliver us into the hand of the Chaldeans, for you to cause our death and to make us captives in Babylon.”
4 त्यसैले कारेहका छोरा योहानान, सेनाका सबै अधिकृत र सबै मानिसले यहूदा देशमा बस्नू भन्ने परमप्रभुको आज्ञालाई इन्कार गरे ।
So Johanan son of Kareah, all the princes of the army, and all the people refused to listen to Yahweh's voice to live in the land of Judah.
5 कारेहका छोरा योहानान र सेनाका सबै कप्तानले यहूदमा बाँकी रहेका सबै मानिसलाई लिएर गए, जो छरपष्ट भएका सबै जातिकहाँबाट यहूदा देशमा बस्न आएका थिए ।
Johanan son of Kareah and all the army commanders took away all the remnant of Judah who had returned from all the nations where they had been scattered to live in the land of Judah.
6 तिनीहरूले पुरुषहरू र स्त्रीहरू, बालबालिका र राजाका छोरीहरू अनि राजाका अङ्गरक्षकका कप्तान नबूजरदानले शापानका नाति, अहीकामका छोरा गदल्याहसित बस्न अनुमति दिएका हरेक व्यक्तिलाई लगे । तिनीहरूले यर्मिया अगमवक्ता र नेरियाहका छोरा बारूकलाई पनि लगे ।
They took the men and women, the children and the king's daughters, and every person whom Nebuzaradan, the commander of the king's bodyguards, had let remain with Gedaliah son of Ahikam son of Shaphan. They also took Jeremiah the prophet and Baruch son of Neriah.
7 तिनीहरू मिश्र देशमा, तहपेनसमा गए किनभने तिनीहरूले परमप्रभुको आज्ञा मानेनन् ।
They went to the land of Egypt, to Tahpanhes, because they did not listen to Yahweh's voice.
8 त्यसैले तहपेनसमा परमप्रभुको वचन यसो भनेर आयो,
So the word of Yahweh came to Jeremiah in Tahpanhes, saying,
9 “तेरा हातमा केही ठुला-ठुला ढुङ्गाहरू ले, र यहूदाका मानिसहरूको दृष्टिमा तहपेनसस्थित फारोको दरबारको प्रवेशद्वारमा इँटा छापेको बाटोमुनि तिनलाई गाड् ।”
“Take some large stones in your hand, and, in the sight of the people of Judah, hide them in the mortar in the pavement at the entrance to Pharaoh's house in Tahpanhes.”
10 त्यसपछि तिनीहरूलाई भन्, 'सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्वर यसो भन्नुहुन्छः मैले नबूकदनेसरलाई मेरो सेवकको रूपमा बोलाउन सन्देशवाहकहरू पठाउनै लागेको छु । यर्मियाले गाडेका ती ढुङ्गाहरूमाथि म त्यसको सिंहासन बसाल्नेछु । नबूकदनेसरले तीमाथि आफ्नो मण्डप खडा गर्नेछ ।
Then say to them, “Yahweh of hosts, God of Israel, says this, 'See, I am about to send messengers to take Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon as my servant. I will place his throne over these stones that you, Jeremiah, have buried. Nebuchadnezzar will place his pavilion over them.
11 किनकि ऊ आउनेछ, र मिश्रदेशलाई आक्रमण गर्नेछ । मृत्युको लागि निधो गरिएको व्यक्ति मृत्युलाई दिइनेछ । निर्वासनको लागि निधो गरिएको व्यक्ति निर्वासनमा लगिने छ । तरवारको लागि निधो गरिएको व्यक्ति तरवारको धारमा पर्नेछ ।
For he will come and attack the land of Egypt. Anyone who is assigned to death will be given to death. Anyone who is assigned to captivity will be taken captive. Anyone who is assigned to the sword will be given to the sword.
12 त्यसपछि म मिश्रका देवताहरूका मन्दिरहरूमा आगो लगाउनेछु । नबूकदनेसरले तिनलाई जलाउने वा कब्जा गर्नेछ । गोठालाहरूले आफ्ना लुगाबाट उपियाँ निखारेझैं उसले मिश्रदेशलाई रित्तो पार्नेछ ।
Then I will light a fire in the temples of Egypt's gods. Nebuchadnezzar will burn them or capture them. He will clean out the land of Egypt just as shepherds clean vermin off their clothes. He will go out from that place in victory.
13 उसले मिश्र देशको हेलियोपोलिसमा भएका ढुङ्गाका मूर्तिहरू भत्कानेछ । उसले मिश्रका देवताहरूका मन्दिरहरू जलानेछ ।”
He will break the stone pillars at Heliopolis in the land of Egypt. He will burn the temples of Egypt's gods.'”
