< यर्मिया 46 >

1 जाति-जातिहरूको विषयमा यर्मिया अगमवक्ताकहाँ आएको परमप्रभुको वचन यही हो ।
The word of the LORD which came to Jeremiah the prophet against the Gentiles;
2 मिश्र देशको विषयमाः “यो यूफ्रेटिस नदीको तीरमा अवस्थित कर्कमीशमा भएका मिश्रदेशका राजा फारो नेकोका सेनाको विषयमा हो । यहूदाका राजा योशियाहका छोरा यहोयाकीमको चौथो वर्षमा यही सेनालाई बेबिलोनका राजा नबूकदनेसरले पराजित गरेका थिए ।
Against Egypt, against the army of Pharaohnecho king of Egypt, which was by the river Euphrates in Carchemish, which Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon smote in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah.
3 साना र ठुला ढालहरू तयार पार, अनि युद्ध गर्नलाई अगाडि बढ ।
Order you the buckler and shield, and draw near to battle.
4 घोडाहरूमा जीन-लगाम कस । घोडाहरूमा सवार होओ, र टोप लगाएर आफ्नो ठाउँमा खडा होओ । भालाहरू टल्काओ, र आ-आफ्नो कवच लगाओ ।
Harness the horses; and get up, you horsemen, and stand forth with your helmets; furbish the spears, and put on the brigandines.
5 म यहाँ के देख्दैछु? तिनीहरू त्रासले भरिएका छन्, र टाढा भाग्दैछन्, किनकि तिनीहरूका सिपाहीहरू पराजित भएका छन् । सुरक्षाको लागि तिनीहरूको भाग्दैछन्, र पछाडि फर्केर हेरिरहेका छैनन् । त्रास चारैतिर छ, यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो—
Why have I seen them dismayed and turned away back? and their mighty ones are beaten down, and are fled apace, and look not back: for fear was round about, says the LORD.
6 तीव्र गतिमा कुद्‍नेहरू भाग्‍न सक्दैनन्, र सिपाहीहरू उम्कन सक्दैनन् । तिनीहरू उत्तरमा ठक्‍कर खान्छन्, र यूफ्रेटिस नदीको छेउमा ढल्छन् ।
Let not the swift flee away, nor the mighty man escape; they shall stumble, and fall toward the north by the river Euphrates.
7 नील नदीझैं बढेर आउने यो को हो, जसको पानी नदीको झैं उर्लन्छ र झर्छ?
Who is this that comes up as a flood, whose waters are moved as the rivers?
8 मिश्रदेश नील नदीझैं बढेर आउँछ । त्‍यो नदीको पानीझैं उर्लन्छ र झर्छ । मिश्रदेशले भन्छ, 'म माथि जानेछु र पृथ्वीलाई ढाक्‍नेछु । सहरहरू र तिनका बासिन्दाहरूलाई म नष्‍ट पार्नेछु ।'
Egypt rises up like a flood, and his waters are moved like the rivers; and he says, I will go up, and will cover the earth; I will destroy the city and the inhabitants thereof.
9 ए घोडाहरू हो, माथि जाओ । ए रथहरू हो, रिसाओ । सिपाहीहरू बाहिर जाऊन्, ढाल बोक्‍ने कूश र पूतका निपुण मानिसहरू अनि लूदका बाण हान्‍न निपुण मानिसहरू हो, अगि बढ ।’
Come up, you horses; and rage, you chariots; and let the mighty men come forth; the Ethiopians and the Libyans, that handle the shield; and the Lydians, that handle and bend the bow.
10 त्यस दिन सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभुको लागि प्रतिशोधको दिन हुनेछ, र उहाँले आफ्ना वैरीहरूलाई आफै बदला लिनुहुनेछ । तरवारले स्वाहा पार्नेछ, र त्यो सन्तुष्‍ट हुनेछ । यसले तिनीहरूको रगत पिउनेछ । किनकि यूफ्रेटिस नदीको किनारमा अवस्थित उत्तर देशमा सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभुका लागि बलिदान चढाइनेछ ।
For this is the day of the Lord GOD of hosts, a day of vengeance, that he may avenge him of his adversaries: and the sword shall devour, and it shall be satiate and made drunk with their blood: for the Lord GOD of hosts has a sacrifice in the north country by the river Euphrates.
11 ए मिश्रदेशका कन्या-छोरी हो, गिलादमा उक्लेर जाओ, र औषधी प्राप्‍त गर । तैंले धेरै औषधी लगाए तापनि त्यो व्यर्थ हुन्छ । तेरो लागि कुनै उपचार छैन ।
Go up into Gilead, and take balm, O virgin, the daughter of Egypt: in vain shall you use many medicines; for you shall not be cured.
12 जातिहरूले तेरो अपमानको बारेमा सुनेका छन् । पृथ्वी तेरो विलापले भरिएको छ, किनकि सिपाहीहरू एक-अर्कामा ठक्‍कर खान्‍छन् । तिनीहरू दुवै एकसाथ ढल्‍छन् ।”
The nations have heard of your shame, and your cry has filled the land: for the mighty man has stumbled against the mighty, and they are fallen both together.
13 बेबिलोनका राजा नबूकदनेसर मिश्रदेशमा आउँदा र आक्रमण गर्दा परमप्रभुले यर्मिया अगमवक्तालाई भन्‍नुभएको वचन यही होः
The word that the LORD spoke to Jeremiah the prophet, how Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon should come and smite the land of Egypt.
14 “मिश्रदेशमा सुचना दे, र मिग्दोल, मेम्फिस र तहपनेसमा यो घोषणा गर् । 'आ-आफ्नो ठाउँ लेओ र आफूलाई तयार राख, किनकि तिमीहरूको वरिपरि भएकाहरूलाई तरवारले स्वाहा पार्नेछ ।'
Declare you in Egypt, and publish in Migdol, and publish in Noph and in Tahpanhes: say you, Stand fast, and prepare you; for the sword shall devour round about you.
15 तेरा शक्तिशाली मानिसहरू किन भुइँमा घोप्टो पर्छन्? तिनीहरू खडा हुने छैनन्, किनकि म परमप्रभुले तिनीहरूलाई भुइँमा धकेलेको हुँ ।
Why are your valiant men swept away? they stood not, because the LORD did drive them.
16 उहाँले ठक्‍कर खानेहरूको सङ्ख्या बढाउनुहुन्‍छ । हरेक सिपाही अर्कोमा ढल्‍नेछ । तिनीहरू भन्दैछन्, 'खडा होऊ । हामी घर जाऔं । हाम्रा आफ्नै मानिसहरूकहाँ, हाम्रो आफ्नै मातृभूमिमा जाऔं । हामीलाई प्रहार गर्ने यो तरवारलाई हामी छोडौं ।'
He made many to fall, yes, one fell on another: and they said, Arise, and let us go again to our own people, and to the land of our nativity, from the oppressing sword.
17 तिनीहरूले त्यहाँ घोषणा गरे, 'मिश्रदेशका राजा फारो हल्ला गर्ने सोर मात्र हो, मौका पाएको व्‍यक्‍ति चिप्‍लेको छ ।'
They did cry there, Pharaoh king of Egypt is but a noise; he has passed the time appointed.
18 जस्‍तो म जीवित छु, सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभु महाराजा घोषणा गर्नुहुन्‍छ— कोही एक जना तबोर पर्वतझैं र समुद्र किनारको कर्मेल पर्वतझैं आउनेछ ।
As I live, says the King, whose name is the LORD of hosts, Surely as Tabor is among the mountains, and as Carmel by the sea, so shall he come.
19 ए मिश्रदेशमा बस्‍नेहरू हो, निर्वासनमा लानलाई आफ्ना निम्‍ति पोकापन्‍तरा बाँध । किनकि मेम्फिस उजाड हुनेछ । यो भग्‍नावशेष हुनेछ, र त्यहाँ कोही पनि बस्‍नेछैन ।
O you daughter dwelling in Egypt, furnish yourself to go into captivity: for Noph shall be waste and desolate without an inhabitant.
20 मिश्रदेश एउटा सुन्दरी गाई हो, तर उत्तर दिशाबाट एउटा चिल्ने किरा आउँदैछ । त्‍यो आउँदैछ ।
Egypt is like a very fair heifer, but destruction comes; it comes out of the north.
21 त्यसको बिचमा भएका ज्यालादार सिपाहीहरू पोसिएका साँढेहरूजस्तै हुन्, तर तिनीहरू पनि फर्केर भाग्‍नेछन् । तिनीहरू एकसाथ खडा हुनेछैनन्, किनकि तिनीहरूका विरुद्धमा तिनीहरूका विपत्तिको दिन, तिनीहरूको दण्डको समय आउँदैछ ।
Also her hired men are in the middle of her like fatted bullocks; for they also are turned back, and are fled away together: they did not stand, because the day of their calamity was come on them, and the time of their visitation.
22 सर्पले झैं मिश्रदेशले आवाज निकाल्‍नेछ र घिस्रेर भाग्‍नेछ, किनकि त्यसका शत्रुहरू त्यसको विरुद्धमा अगि बढ्दैछन् । दाउरा काट्नेहरूले बन्‍चरो लिएर हिंडेझैं तिनीहरू त्यसतर्फ जाँदैछन् ।
The voice thereof shall go like a serpent; for they shall march with an army, and come against her with axes, as hewers of wood.
23 जङ्गल घना भए तापनि तिनीहरूले त्यसलाई काट्नेछन्, यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो । किनकि शत्रुहरू गन्‍नै नसकिने गरी सलहहरूभन्दा धेरै हुनेछन् ।
They shall cut down her forest, says the LORD, though it cannot be searched; because they are more than the grasshoppers, and are innumerable.
24 मिश्रदेशकी छोरी लाजमा पारिनेछे । त्यसलाई उत्तरबाट आउने मानिसहरूको हातमा दिइनेछ ।”
The daughter of Egypt shall be confounded; she shall be delivered into the hand of the people of the north.
25 सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्‍वर यसो भन्‍नुहुन्छ, “हेर, थेबेसको अमोन, फारो, मिश्रदेश र त्यसका देवताहरू, त्यसका राजा फारोहरू र तिनीहरूमाथि भरोसा गर्नेहरूलाई मैले दण्ड दिनै लागेको छु ।
The LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, says; Behold, I will punish the multitude of No, and Pharaoh, and Egypt, with their gods, and their kings; even Pharaoh, and all them that trust in him:
26 मैले तिनीहरूका ज्यान लिन खोज्नेहरू र बेबिलोनका राजा नबूकदनेसर र उसका सेवकहरूका हातमा तिनीहरूलाई दिन लागेको छु । त्यसपछि मिश्रदेश पहिलेझैं आबादी हुनेछ,’ यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो ।
And I will deliver them into the hand of those that seek their lives, and into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, and into the hand of his servants: and afterward it shall be inhabited, as in the days of old, says the LORD.
27 तर ए मेरो दास याकूब, तँ नडरा । ए इस्राएल, तँ हताश नहो, किनकि हेर्, मैले तँलाई धेरै टाढाबाट र तेरा सन्तानलाई तिनीहरूको निर्वासनको देशबाट फर्काएर ल्याउनै लागेको छु । तब याकूब फर्कनेछ, शान्ति पाउनेछ र सुरक्षित हुनेछ, र उसलाई आतङ्कित पार्ने कोही हुनेछैन ।
But fear not you, O my servant Jacob, and be not dismayed, O Israel: for, behold, I will save you from afar off, and your seed from the land of their captivity; and Jacob shall return, and be in rest and at ease, and none shall make him afraid.
28 ए मेरो दास याकूब, तँ नडरा, यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो— किनभने म तँसित छु, यसैले मैले तँलाई जहाँजहाँ छरपष्‍ट पारें त्‍यहाँका सबै जातिहरूको विरुद्धमा म पूर्ण विनाश ल्याउनेछु । तर म तँलाई भने पूर्ण रूपमा नष्‍ट गर्नेछैनँ । तापनि म तँलाई न्यायपूर्वक अनुशासन गर्नेछु, र म तँलाई निश्‍चय पनि दण्डविना छाड्नेछैनँ ।”
Fear you not, O Jacob my servant, says the LORD: for I am with you; for I will make a full end of all the nations where I have driven you: but I will not make a full end of you, but correct you in measure; yet will I not leave you wholly unpunished.
