यर्मिया 44
1 मिश्रदेश बसोबास गरेका, मिग्दोल, तहपनेस, नोप र माथिल्लो मिश्रमा बसिरहेका सबै यहूदीको विषयमा यो वचन यर्मियाकहाँ आयोः
The word that came to Jeremiah concerning all the Jews who lived in the land of Egypt, who lived at Migdol, and at Tahpanhes, and at Memphis, and in the country of Pathros, saying,
2 “सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्वर यसो भन्नुहुन्छ, ‘यरूशलेम र यहूदाका सबै सहरमाथि मैले ल्याएका विपत्तिहरू तिमीहरू आफैले देखेका छौ । हेर, आज ती भग्नावशेष भएका छन् । तिनमा बस्ने कोही छैन ।
"Thus says Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel: 'You have seen all the evil that I have brought on Jerusalem, and on all the cities of Judah; and look, this day they are a desolation, and no man dwells in them,
3 धुप बाल्न र अरू देवताहरूको पुजा गर्न गएर तिनीहरूले मलाई चोट पुर्याउनलाई गरेका तिनीहरूका दुष्ट कुराहरूले गर्दा यसो भएको हो । यी देवताहरूलाई न तिनीहरूले चिन्दथे, न तिमीहरू चिन्छौ, न त तिमीहरूका पुर्खाहरूले चिन्दथे ।'
because of their wickedness which they have committed to provoke me to anger, in that they went to burn incense, to serve other gods, that they did not know, neither they, nor you, nor your fathers.
4 त्यसैले मैले बारम्बार मेरा दास अगमवक्ताहरूलाई तिनीहरूकहाँ पठाएँ । मैले तिनीहरूलाई यसो भन्न पठाएँ, 'मैले घृणा गर्ने यी घिनलाग्दा कुराहरू गर्न छोड ।’
However I sent to you all my servants the prophets, rising up early and sending them, saying, 'Oh, do not do this abominable thing that I hate.'
5 तर तिनीहरूले सुनेनन् । अरू देवताहरूलाई धुप बाल्ने तिनीहरूको दुष्टताबाट ध्यान हटाउने वा फर्कने कुरालाई तिनीहरूले इन्कार गरे ।
But they did not listen, nor inclined their ear to turn from their wickedness, to burn no incense to other gods.
6 त्यसैले यहूदाका सहरहरू र यरूशलेमका सडकहरूमा मेरो रिस र क्रोध खन्याइयो, र आगो लगाइयो । ती उजाड र सर्वनाश भए, जस्तो आजको दिनसम्म छ ।'
Therefore my wrath and my anger was poured forth, and was kindled in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem; and they are wasted and desolate, as it is this day.'
7 त्यसैले अब परमप्रभु सर्वशक्तिमान् परमेश्वर, इस्राएलका परमेश्वर यसो भन्नुहुन्छ, 'आफ्नै विरुद्धमा तिमीहरू किन ठुला-ठुला दुष्ट काम गर्दैछौ? यहूदाका पुरुषहरू, स्त्रीहरू, बालबालिका तथा दूधे बालकहरूबाट किन आफै बहिष्कृत हुँदैछौ? तिमीहरूका कोही पनि बाँकी छाडिनेछैनौ ।
Therefore now thus says Jehovah, the God of hosts, the God of Israel: 'Why do you commit great evil against your own souls, to cut off from yourselves man and woman, infant and nursing child out of the midst of Judah, to leave yourselves none remaining;
8 तिमीहरूका हातका कामहरूद्वारा, तिमीहरू बस्न गएका मिश्रदेशमा अरू देवताहरूलाई धुप बालेर तिमीहरूका हातले गरेका कामका दुष्टता तिमीहरूले मलाई चोट पुर्याएका छौ । तिमीहरू नष्ट गरिन र पृथ्वीका सबै जातिका बिचमा सराप र निन्दाको पात्र बन्न तिमीहरू त्यहाँ गएका छौ ।
in that you provoke me to anger with the works of your hands, burning incense to other gods in the land of Egypt, where you have gone to live; that you may be cut off, and that you may be a curse and a reproach among all the nations of the earth?
9 तिमीहरूका पुर्खाहरू अनि यहूदाका राजाहरू र तिनीहरूका पत्नीहरूले गरेका दुष्टतालाई के तिमीहरूले बिर्सेका छौ? यहूदा देशमा र यरूशलेमका सडकहरूमा तिमीहरू आफै र तिमीहरूका पत्नीहरूले गरेका दुष्ट कामलाई के तिमीहरूले बिर्सेका छौ?
Have you forgotten the wickedness of your fathers, and the wickedness of the kings of Judah, and the wickedness of their wives, and your own wickedness, and the wickedness of your wives which they committed in the land of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem?
10 आजको दिनसम्म पनि तिनीहरू नम्र भएका छैनन् । मैले तिनीहरू र तिनीहरूका पुर्खाहरूका सामु राखेको मेरा व्यवस्था वा विधानहरूलाई तिनीहरूले आदर गर्दैनन्, न त तिनीहरू तीअनुसार हिंड्छन् ।'
They are not humbled even to this day, neither have they feared, nor walked in my law, nor in my statutes, that I set before you and before your fathers.'
11 त्यसकारण सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्वर यसो भन्नुहुन्छ, 'हेर, तिमीहरूमाथि विपत्ति ल्याउन र सारा यहूदालाई नष्ट गर्न मैले आफ्नो अनुहारलाई तिमीहरूबाट हटाउनै लागेको छु ।
Therefore thus says Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel: 'Look, I will set my face against you for evil, even to cut off all Judah.
12 किनकि मिश्रदेशमा बस्न जाने निधो गरेका यहूदाका बाँकी रहेकाहरूलाई म नष्ट पार्नेछु । तिनीहरू सबै मिश्रदेशमा नष्ट होऊन् भनेर म यसो गर्नेछु । तिनीहरू सबै तरवार र अनिकालले ढल्नेछन् । सानादेखि ठुलासम्म तिनीहरू तरवार र अनिकालले नष्ट हुनेछन् । तिनीहरू मर्नेछन्, अनि कसम, सराप, निन्दा र घृणाका पात्र बन्नेछन् ।
I will take the remnant of Judah, that have set their faces to go into the land of Egypt to live there, and they shall all be consumed; in the land of Egypt shall they fall; they shall be consumed by the sword and by the famine; they shall die, from the least even to the greatest, by the sword and by the famine; and they shall be an object of horror, an astonishment, and a curse, and a reproach.
13 जसरी मैले यरूशलेमलाई तरवार, अनिकाल र विपत्तिले दण्ड दिएँ, त्यसै गरी मिश्रदेशमा बसेका मानिसहरूलाई दण्ड दिनेछु,
For I will punish those who dwell in the land of Egypt, as I have punished Jerusalem, by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence;
14 जसको कारणले मिश्रदेशमा बस्न गएका यहूदाका बाँकी रहेकाहरूमध्ये कोही पनि उम्कने वा बाँच्ने वा यहूदामा फर्कनेछैन, जहाँ फर्केर जाने र बस्ने तिनीहरूको इच्छा छ । अनि त्यहाँबाट भागेका थोरैबाहेक अरू कोही फर्कनेछैन' ।”
so that none of the remnant of Judah, who have gone into the land of Egypt to live there, shall escape or be left, to return into the land of Judah, to which they have a desire to return to dwell there: for none shall return save such as shall escape.'"
15 तब आफ्ना पत्नीहरूले अरू देवताहरूलाई धुप बाल्दैथिए भनी थाहा पाएका त्यस ठुलो सभाका सबै मानिस र उक्त सभामा भएका सबै स्त्री अनि तल्लो र माथिल्लो मिश्रमा बस्ने सबै यहूदीले यर्मियालाई जवाफ दिए,
Then all the men who knew that their wives burned incense to other gods, and all the women who stood by, a great assembly, even all the people who lived in the land of Egypt, in Pathros, answered Jeremiah, saying,
16 तिनीहरूले भने, “परमप्रभुको नाउँमा तिमीले हामीलाई भनेका वचनका तिम्रा कुरा हामी सुन्नेछैनौं ।
"As for the word that you have spoken to us in the name of Jehovah, we will not listen to you.
17 किनकि हामीले गर्नेछौं भनेका सबै कुरा हामी निश्चय नै गर्नेछौं, अर्थात् स्वर्गकी रानीलाई धुप बाल्नेछौं, अनि यहूदाका सहरहरू र यरूशलेमका सडकहरूमा हामी, हाम्रा पुर्खाहरू, हाम्रा राजाहरू र हाम्रा अगुवाहरूले गरेझैं हामी तिनको निम्ति अर्घबलिहरू खन्याउनेछौं । तब हामी भोजनले भिपूर्ण हुनेछौं, र कुनै विपत्तिविना हाम्रो उन्नति हुनेछ ।
But we will certainly perform every word that is gone forth out of our mouth, to burn incense to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings to her, as we have done, we and our fathers, our kings and our leaders, in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem; for then had we plenty of food, and were well, and saw no evil.
18 हामीले स्वर्गकी रानीलाई धुप बाल्न र उनलाई अर्घबलिहरू खन्याउन छोड्दा हामी सबै जनाले गरिबी भोग्दै थियौँ अनि हामी तरवार र अनिकालले मर्दै थियौँ ।”
But since we left off burning incense to the queen of heaven, and pouring out drink offerings to her, we have wanted all things, and have been consumed by the sword and by the famine."
19 स्त्रीहरूले भने, “हामीले स्वर्गकी रानीको सामु धुप बाल्दा र उनलाई अर्घबलिहरू खन्याउँदा, उनको प्रतिरूपका फुरौलाहरू बनाउँदा र उनलाई अर्घबलिहरू चढाउँदा के हामीले आफ्ना पतिहरूले भनेको नमानेर यी कुराहरू गर्यौँ र?”
And the women said, "When we burned incense to the queen of heaven, and poured out drink offerings to her, did we make her cakes to worship her, and pour out drink offerings to her, without our husbands?"
20 तब यर्मियाले सबै मानिस अर्थात् पुरुषहरू र स्त्रीहरू अनि तिनलाई जवाफ दिने सबै मानिसहरूलाई तिनले घोषणा गरे र भने,
Then Jeremiah said to all the people, to the men, and to the women, even to all the people who had given him an answer, saying,
21 “के तिमीहरू, तिमीहरूका पुर्खाहरू, तिमीहरूका राजाहरू, अगुवाहरू र देशका मानिसहरूले यहूदाका सहरहरू र यरूशलेमका सडकहरूमा चढाएका धुपलाई परमप्रभुले सम्झनुभएन र? किनकि परमप्रभुले यो सम्झनुहुन्छ । यो उहाँको विचारमा आउँछ ।
"The incense that you burned in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, you and your fathers, your kings and your leaders, and the people of the land. Did not Jehovah remember them, and did not it come into his mind,
22 तब तिमीहरूका दुष्ट अभ्यासहरूका कारणले र तिमीहरूले गरेका घिनलाग्दा कुराहरूको कारणले उहाँले यसलाई सहन सक्नुभएन । तब तिमीहरूको देश उजाड, त्रास र सराप बन्यो, यसैले आजको दिनसम्म त्यहाँ एक जना बासिन्दा छैन ।
so that Jehovah could no longer bear because of the evil of your doings, and because of the abominations which you have committed? Therefore your land has become a desolation, and an astonishment, and a curse, without inhabitant, as it is this day.
23 तिमीहरूले धुप बालेका र परमप्रभुको विरुद्धमा पाप गरेको कारणले अनि तिमीहरूले उहाँको स्वोर, उहाँको व्यवस्था, उहाँका विधानहरू वा उहाँका करारका आदेशहरू पालन नगरेको कारणले तिमीहरूको विरुद्धमा यो विपत्ति आएको हो, जस्तो आजको दिनसम्म छ ।”
Because you have burned incense, and because you have sinned against Jehovah, and have not obeyed the voice of Jehovah, nor walked in his law, nor in his statutes, nor in his testimonies; therefore this evil has happened to you, as it is this day."
24 तब यर्मियाले सबै मानिस र सबै स्त्रीलाई भने, “हे मिश्रदेशमा भएका यहूदाका सबै मानिस हो, परमप्रभुको वचन सुन ।
Moreover Jeremiah said to all the people, and to all the women, "Hear the word of Jehovah, all Judah who are in the land of Egypt:
25 सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभु, इस्राएलका परमेश्वर यसो भन्नुहुन्छः 'स्वर्गकी रानीलाई पुजा गर्न र उनलाई अर्घबलिहरू चढाउन हामीले खाएका भाकलहरूलाई हामी निश्चय नै पुरा गर्नेछौं' भनी तिमीहरू र तिमीहरूका पत्नीहरू दुवैले तिमीहरूका मुखले भनेका थियौ र तिमीहरूले आफ्ना हातले पुरा गरेका छौ । अब तिमीहरूका भाकलहरू पुरा गर । तिनलाई निरन्तर गर ।’
Thus says Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel, saying, 'You and your wives have both spoken with your mouths, and with your hands have fulfilled it, saying, "We will surely perform our vows that we have vowed, to burn incense to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings to her": establish then your vows, and perform your vows.'
26 त्यसैले मिश्रदेशमा बस्ने सारा यहूदा हो, परमप्रभुको यो वचन सुन ‘हेर, मेरो महान् नाउँद्वारा मैले शपथ खाएको छु, परमप्रभु भन्नुहुन्छ । सारा मिश्र देशमा भएका यहूदाका मानिसको मुखले अहिले, 'जीवित परमप्रभुको नाउँमा' भनेरझैं फेरि मेरो नाउँ कहिलै पनि पुकार्नेछैनन् ।”
Therefore hear the word of Jehovah, all Judah who dwell in the land of Egypt: 'Look, I have sworn by my great name,' says Jehovah, 'that my name shall no more be named in the mouth of any man of Judah in all the land of Egypt, saying, "As Jehovah lives."
27 हेर, मैले तिनीहरूलाई भलाइको निम्ति होइन, विपत्तिको निम्ति हेर्दैछु । मिश्रदेशमा भएको यहूदाको हरेक व्यक्ति सखाप नभएसम्म तिनीहरू तरवार र अनिकालले नष्ट हुनेछ ।
Look, I watch over them for disaster, and not for good; and all the men of Judah who are in the land of Egypt shall be consumed by the sword and by the famine, until they are all gone.
28 तब तरवारबाट बाँचेकामध्येका थोरै सङ्ख्या मात्र तिनीहरू मिश्रदेशबाट यहूदाको देशमा फर्कनेछन् । तब तिनीहरूको कि मेरो कसको वचन सत्य ठहर्दोरहेछ भनी मिश्रदेशमा बस्न गएका यहूदाका बाँकी भएकाहरूले जान्नेछन् ।
Those who escape the sword shall return out of the land of Egypt into the land of Judah, few in number; and all the remnant of Judah, who have gone into the land of Egypt to live there, shall know whose word shall stand, mine, or theirs.
29 यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो, तिमीहरूका विरुद्धमा मैले तिमीहरूलाई यो ठाउँमा दिने चिन्हचाहिं यो हुनेछ, यसैले कि मेरो वचनले निश्चय पनि तिमीहरूलाई विपत्तिले आक्रमण गर्नेछ भनी तिमीहरूलाई थाहा होस् ।
This shall be the sign to you,' says Jehovah, 'that I will punish you in this place, that you may know that my words shall surely stand against you for evil':
30 परमप्रभु यसो भन्नुहुन्छ, 'हेर, मिश्रको राजा फारो होप्रालाई त्यसका शत्रुहरू र त्यसको ज्यान लिन खोज्नेहरूको हातमा मैले सुम्पिदिनै लागेको छु । यहूदाका राजा सिदकियालाई मैले त्यसको ज्यान लिन खोज्ने शत्रु बेबिलोनको राजा नबूकदनेसरको हातमा सुम्पेको जस्तै त्यो हुनेछ ।’”
Thus says Jehovah, 'Look, I will give Pharaoh Hophra king of Egypt into the hand of his enemies, and into the hand of those who seek his life; as I gave Zedekiah king of Judah into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, who was his enemy, and sought his life.'"
