नहेम्याह 9

1 अब उही महिनाको चौबिसौँ दिनमा इस्राएलीहरू भेला भए । तिनीहरू उपवास बस्दै र भाङ्ग्रा लगाउँदै थिए, र तिनीहरूले आ-आफ्ना शिरमा धूलो हाले ।

And on day twenty and four of the month this they gathered [the] people of Israel with fasting and in sackcloth and earth [was] on them.

2 इस्राएलका सन्तानहरूले सबै परदेशीबाट आफूलाई अलग गरे । तिनीहरू खडा भएर आफ्ना पापसाथै तिनीहरूका पुर्खाहरूका दुष्‍ट कामहरू स्वीकार गरे ।

And they separated themselves [the] offspring of Israel from all sons of foreignness and they stood and they confessed on sins their and [the] iniquities of ancestors their.

3 तिनीहरू आ-आफ्ना ठाउँमा खडा भए, र पहिलो एक पहरचाहिँ तिनीहरूले परमप्रभु तिनीहरूका परमेश्‍वरको व्यवस्थाको पुस्तकबाट पढे । अर्को पहरमा तिनीहरूले परमप्रभु तिनीहरूका परमेश्‍वरको सामु पाप स्वीकार गर्दै र दण्डवत् गर्दै थिए ।

And they stood at place their and they read aloud in [the] scroll of [the] law of Yahweh God their [the] fourth of the day and a fourth [they were] confessing and [they were] bowing down to Yahweh God their.

4 लेवीहरू, येशूअ, बानी, कादमीएल, शबन्याह, बुन्‍नी, शरेबियाह, बानी र कनानी खुट्किलाहरूका उभिए, अनि तिनीहरूले परमप्रभु तिनीहरूका परमेश्‍वरलाई उच्‍च सोरमा पुकारे ।

And he stood on [the] platform of the Levites Jeshua and Bani Kadmiel Shebaniah Bunni Sherebiah Bani Kenani and they cried out with a voice great to Yahweh God their.

5 तब लेवीहरू, येशूअ, कादमीएल, बानी, हशबन्याह, शरेबियाह, होदियाह, शबन्याह र पतहियाहले भने, “खडा भएर परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्‍वरलाई सदासर्वदा प्रशंसा चढाओ ।” तिनीहरूले तपाईंको महिमित नाउँलाई धन्यको भनून्, र यो नाउँ हरेक आशिष् र प्रशंसाभन्दा माथि उचालिएको होस् ।

And they said the Levites Jeshua and Kadmiel Bani Hashabneiah Sherebiah Hodiah Shebaniah Pethahiah arise bless Yahweh God your from antiquity until perpetuity and may people bless [the] name of glory your and [may it] be exalted above all blessing and praise.

6 तपाईं मात्र परमप्रभु हुनुहुन्छ । तपाईंले स्वर्ग, सर्वोच्‍च आकाश, त्यहाँका सबै आकाशीय पिण्ड अनि पृथ्वी र यसमा भएका थोक थोक, समुद्रहरू र तिनमा भएका सबै थोक बनाउनुभयो । तपाईंले नै ती सबैलाई जीवन दिनुहुन्छ, र स्वर्गका समुदायले तपाईंको आराधना गर्छन् ।

You he [are] Yahweh to alone you (you *Q(K)*) you made the heavens [the] heavens of the heavens and all host their the earth and all that [is] on it the seas and all that [is] in them and you [are] preserving alive all of them and [the] host of the heavens to you [are] bowing down.

7 तपाईं परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर हुनुहुन्छ जसले अब्रामलाई चुन्‍नुभयो, र तिनलाई कल्दीहरूको ऊरबाट ल्याउनुभयो, र तिनलाई अब्राहाम नाउँ दिनुभयो ।

You he [are] Yahweh God who you chose Abram and you brought out him from Ur of [the] Chaldeans and you made name his Abraham.

8 तपाईंले तिनको हृदय तपाईंको सामु विश्‍वासयोग्य भएको भेट्टाउनुभयो, र तिनका सन्तानहरूलाई कनानी, हित्ती, एमोरी, परिज्‍जी, यबूसी र गिर्गाशीहरूको देश दिने प्रतिज्ञा गर्नुभयो । तपाईंले आफ्नो प्रतिज्ञा पुरा गर्नुभएको छ किनकि तपाईं धर्मी हुनुहुन्छ ।

And you found heart his faithful before you and you made with him the covenant to give [the] land of the Canaanite[s] the Hittite[s] the Amorite[s] and the Perizzite[s] and the Jebusite[s] and the Girgashite[s] to give to offspring his and you fulfilled words your for [are] righteous you.

9 तपाईंले मिश्रमा हाम्रा पिता-पुर्खाहरूको दुःख देख्‍नुभयो, र लाल समुद्रनेर तिनीहरूको क्रन्दन सुन्‍नुभयो ।

And you saw [the] affliction of ancestors our in Egypt and outcry their you heard at [the] sea of reed[s].

10 तपाईंले फारो, तिनका सबै अधिकारी र तिनको देशका सबै जनताको सामु चिन्हहरू र आश्‍चर्यहरू गर्नुभयो किनकि मिश्रीहरूले इस्राएलीहरूको विरुद्धमा अहङ्कारी भएर व्यवहार गरेका थिए भनी तपाईं जान्‍नुहुन्थ्यो । तपाईंले आफ्नो निम्ति एउटा नाउँ राख्‍नुभयो जुन आजको दिनसम्म खडा छ ।

And you gave signs and wonders on Pharaoh and on all servants his and on all [the] people of land his for you knew that they had acted presumptuously on them and you made for yourself a name as the day this.

11 त्यसपछि तपाईंले तिनीहरूकै सामु समुद्रलाई विभाजन गरिदिनुभयो अनि तिनीहरू समुद्रको बिचमा सुक्खा भूमिबाट हिँडेर गए, र तिनीहरूलाई खेद्‍नेहरूलाई तपाईंले उर्लंदो पानी ढुङ्गा फालेझैँ फालिदिनुभयो ।

And the sea you split open before them and they passed in [the] middle of the sea on the dry ground and pursuers their you threw in [the] depths like a stone in waters mighty.

12 तिनीहरूलाई बाटोमा यात्राको लागि प्रकाश दिन तपाईंले तिनीहरूलाई दिनमा बादलको खाँबो र रातमा आगोको खाँबोद्वारा अगुवाइ गर्नुभयो ।

And in a pillar of cloud you led them by day and in a pillar of fire night to light up for them the way which they walked in it.

13 तपाईं स्वर्गबाट सीनै पर्वतमा ओर्लनुभयो, र तिनीहरूसित बोल्नुभयो अनि तिनीहरूलाई धार्मिक नियमहरू, साँचो व्यवस्था र असल विधिविधानसाथै आज्ञाहरू दिनुभयो ।

And on [the] mountain of Sinai you came down and you spoke with them from heaven and you gave to them judgments upright and laws of faithfulness statutes and commandments good.

14 तपाईंले तिनीहरूलाई आफ्नो पवित्र शबाथ चिनाउनुभयो, अनि तपाईंका दास मोशाद्वारा तिनीहरूलाई आज्ञाहरू, विधिविधानहरू र व्यवस्था दिनुभयो ।

And [the] sabbath of holiness your you made known to them and commandments and statutes and [the] law you commanded to them by [the] hand of Moses servant your.

15 तपाईंले तिनीहरूलाई तिनीहरूको भोक तृप्‍त पार्न स्वर्गबाट रोटी दिनुभयो, र तिनीहरूको तिर्खा मेट्न चट्टानबाट पानी दिनुभयो । तिनीहरूलाई दिन्छु भनी तपाईंले प्रतिज्ञा गर्नुभएको देशमा गएर अधिकार गर्न तिनीहरूलाई आज्ञा दिनुभयो ।

And bread from heaven you gave to them for hunger their and water from a rock you brought forth for them for thirst their and you said to them to go to take possession of the land which you had lifted hand your to give to them.

16 तर तिनीहरू र हाम्रा पिता-पुर्खाहरू अटेरी र हठी भए, र तपाईंका आज्ञाहरू सुनेनन् ।

And they and ancestors our they acted presumptuously and they stiffened neck their and not they listened to commandments your.

17 तिनीहरूले सुन्‍न इन्कार गरे, र तपाईंले तिनीहरूका बिचमा गर्नुभएका आश्‍चर्यहरूलाई तिनीहरूले विचारै गरेनन् । तर तिनीहरू हठी भए, र तिनीहरूको विद्रोहमा तिनीहरूले आफ्नो दासत्वमा फर्कन एक जना अगुवा नियुक्त गरे । तर तपाईं क्षमाले भरिपूर्ण, अनुग्रही, दयालु, रिसाउनमा ढिला, अचुक प्रेममा प्रचुर परमेश्‍वर हुनुहुन्छ । तपाईंले तिनीहरूलाई त्याग्‍नुभएन ।

And they refused to listen and not they remembered wonders your which you had done with them and they stiffened neck their and they appointed a leader to return to servitude their in rebellion their and you [are] a God forgiveness gracious and compassionate long of anger and great (of covenant loyalty *Q(K)*) and not you abandoned them.

18 तिनीहरूले ढलौटे बाछा बनाएर 'तिमीहरूलाई मिश्रबाट ल्याउने ईश्‍वर यही हो' भनी तिनीहरूले ठुलो ईश्‍वर-निन्दा गर्दा पनि

Even for they had made for themselves a calf of molten metal and they had said this [is] god your who he brought up you from Egypt and they had done blasphemies great.

19 तपाईंले आफ्नो दयामा तिनीहरूलाई उजाड-स्थानमा त्याग्‍नुभएन । तिनीहरूलाई बाटोमा अगुवाइ गर्ने बादलको खाँबोले दिनमा तिनीहरूलाई छोडेन, न त तिनीहरूको यात्राको लागि प्रकाश दिने आगोको खाँबोले रातमा तिनीहरूलाई छोडे ।

And you in compassion your great not you abandoned them in the wilderness [the] pillar of cloud not it departed from over them in daytime their to lead them in the way and [the] pillar of fire at night to light up for them and the way which they walked in it.

20 तिनीहरूलाई निर्देशन दिन तपाईंले तिनीहरूलाई आफ्नो असल आत्मा दिनुभयो, र तिनीहरूका मुखमा तपाईंले आफ्नो मन्‍न दिन रोक्‍नुभएन, र तिनीहरूको तिर्खा मेट्न तपाईंले तिनीहरूलाई पानी दिनुभयो ।

And spirit your good you gave to instruct them and manna your not you withheld from mouth their and water you gave to them for thirst their.

21 चालिस वर्षसम्म उजाड-स्थानमा तपाईंले तिनीहरूलाई भोजन उपलब्ध गराउनुभयो, र तिनीहरूलाई कुनै थोकको कमी भएन । तिनीहरूका लुगा फाटिएनन्, र तिनीहरूका गोडा सुनिएनन् ।

And forty year[s] you sustained them in the wilderness not they were lacking clothes their not they wore out and feet their not they became swollen.

22 तपाईंले तिनीहरूलाई राज्यहरू र जातिहरू दिनुभयो, अनि देशका हरेक कुनामा पुर्‍याउनुभयो । तब तिनीहरूले हेश्बोनका राजा सीहोन र बाशानका राजा ओगको देश अधिकार गरे ।

And you gave to them kingdoms and peoples and you apportioned them to a corner and they took possession of [the] land of Sihon and [the] land of [the] king of Heshbon and [the] land of Og [the] king of Bashan.

23 तपाईंले तिनीहरूका सन्तानहरूलाई आकाशका ताराजत्तिकै अनगिन्ती बनाउनुभयो, र तपाईंले तिनीहरूका पिता-पुर्खाहरूलाई अधिकार गर्न दिन्छु भनी प्रतिज्ञा गर्नुभएको देशमा तिनीहरूलाई ल्याउनुभयो ।

And children their you increased like [the] stars of the heavens and you brought them into the land which you had said to ancestors their to go to take possession of.

24 त्यसैले मानिसहरू देशभित्र प्रवेश गरी यसको अधिकार गरे, र तिनीहरूकै सामु त्यस देशका बासिन्दाहरू अर्थात् कनानीहरूलाई तपाईंले अधीनमा ल्याउनुभयो । इस्राएलले इच्छा लागेअनुसार कनानीहरूलाई व्यवहार गरून् भनेर तपाईंले कनानीहरू, तिनीहरूका राजाहरू, देशका जनताहरूलाई तिनीहरूका हातमा सुम्पिदिनुभयो ।

And they went the children and they took possession of the land and you subdued before them [the] inhabitants of the land the Canaanites and you gave them in hand their and kings their and [the] peoples of the land to do with them according to will their.

25 तिनीहरूले किल्लाबन्दी गरिएका सहरहरू र उर्बरायुक्त देश कब्जा गरे । तिनीहरूले सबै असल थोकहरूले भरिएका घरहरू, पहिले नै खनेका कुवाहरू, दाखबारीहरू, जैतूनका बगैँचाहरू र प्रचुर मात्रामा फल दिने रुखहरू कब्जा गरे । यसरी तिनीहरूले खाएर तृप्‍त भए, अनि मोटाएर तपाईंको महान् भलाइमा तिनीहरूले आनन्द मनाए ।

And they captured cities fortified and ground fertile and they took possession of houses full every good thing wells dug out vineyards and olive trees and tree[s] of food to abundance and they ate and they were satisfied and they grew fat and they luxuriated in goodness your great.

26 तब तिनीहरू अनाज्ञाकारी बने, र तिनीहरूले तपाईंको विरुद्धमा विद्रोह गरे । तिनीहरूले तपाईंको व्यवस्थालाई पिठिउँ फर्काए । तिनीहरूले तपाईंका अगमवक्ताहरूलाई मारे जसले तिनीहरूलाई तपाईंकहाँ फर्कन चेताउनी दिएका थिए । तिनीहरूले ठुलो ईश्‍वर-निन्दा गरे ।

And they were disobedient and they rebelled against you and they threw law your behind back their and prophets your they killed who they had warned them to bring back them to you and they did blasphemies great.

27 त्यसैले तपाईंले तिनीहरूलाई तिनीहरूका शत्रुहरूका हातमा सुम्पिदिनुभयो जसले तिनीहरूलाई सताए । तिनीहरूको दुःखकष्‍टको समयमा तिनीहरूले तपाईंलाई पुकारे, र तपाईंले स्वर्गबाट तिनीहरूको कुरा सुन्‍नुभयो । तपाईंको महान् कृपाको कारण तपाईंले छुटकारा दिनेहरू पठाउनुभयो जसले तिनीहरूलाई तिनीहरूका शत्रुहरूका हातबाट छुटकारा दिए ।

And you gave them in [the] hand of opponents their and they caused distress to them and in [the] time of distress their they cried out to you and you from heaven you heard and according to compassion your great you gave to them deliverers and they delivered them from [the] hand of opponents their.

28 तर तिनीहरूले शान्ति पाएपछि तिनीहरूले फेरि तपाईंको सामु दुष्‍ट काम गरे, र तपाईंले तिनीहरूलाई तिनीहरूका शत्रुहरूका हातमा त्यागिदिनुभयो, अनि तिनीहरूका शत्रुहरूले तिनीहरूमाथि शासन गरे । तथापि तिनीहरू फर्केर तपाईंलाई पुकारा गर्दा तपाईंले स्वर्गबाट सुन्‍नुभयो, र तपाईंको कृपाको कारण धेरै पटक तपाईंले तिनीहरूलाई छुटकारा दिनुभयो ।

And just as was rest to them they returned to do evil before you and you abandoned them in [the] hand of enemies their and they ruled over them and they returned and they cried out to you and you from heaven you heard and you rescued them according to compassion your many times.

29 तिनीहरू तपाईंको व्यवस्थामा फर्कून् भनेर तपाईंले तिनीहरूलाई चेताउनी दिनुभयो । तरै पनि तिनीहरू हठी भए, र तपाईंका आज्ञाहरू सुनेनन् । आज्ञा पालन गर्ने जोसुकैलाई जीवन दिने तपाईंका आज्ञाहरूको विरुद्धमा तिनीहरूले पाप गरे । तिनीहरू हठी बने र अटेरी बने अनि सुन्‍न इन्का गरे ।

And you warned them to bring back them to law your and they they acted presumptuously and not they listened to commandments your and in judgments your they sinned in them which he will do anyone and he will live by them and they gave a shoulder stubborn and neck their they stiffened and not they listened.

30 धेरै वर्षसम्म तपाईं तिनीहरूसित धैर्यवान् हुनुभयो, र आफ्ना अगमवक्ताहरूमार्फत तपाईंको आत्माद्वारा तिनीहरूलाई चेताउनी दिनुभयो । तरै पनि तिनीहरूले सुनेनन् । त्यसैले तपाईंले तिनीहरूलाई छिमेकी जातिहरूका हातमा सुम्पिदिनुभयो ।

And you prolonged towards them years many and you warned them by spirit your by [the] hand of prophets your and not they gave ear and you gave them in [the] hand of [the] peoples of the lands.

31 तर तपाईंको महान् कृपामा तिनीहरूलाई निमिट्ट्यान्‍न पार्नुभएन, न त पूर्ण रूपमा त्यागिदिनुभयो किनकि तपाईं अनुग्रही र करुणामय परमेश्‍वर हुनुहुन्छ ।

And in compassion your great not you made them complete destruction and not you abandoned them for [are] a God gracious and compassionate you.

32 त्यसकारण, अब हे हाम्रा परमेश्‍वर तपाईं महान्, शक्तिशाली र भययोग्य परमेश्‍वर हुनुहुन्छ, जसले आफ्नो करार र अचुक प्रेम राख्‍नुहुन्छ । अश्शूरका राजाहरूको समयदेखि आजको दिनसम्म हामी, हाम्रा राजाहरू, हाम्रा राजकुमारहरू, हाम्रा पुजारीहरू, हाम्रा अगमवक्ताहरू, हाम्रा पिता-पुर्खाहरू र तपाईंका सारा मानिसमाथि आइपरेका यी कठिनाइलाई हलुका नसम्झनुहोस् ।

And therefore O God our God great mighty and awesome [the] keeper of the covenant and covenant loyalty may not it be small before you all the hardship which it has come upon us to kings our to leaders our and to priests our and to prophets our and to ancestors our and to all people your since [the] days of [the] kings of Assyria until the day this.

33 हामीमाथि आइपरेका हरेक कुरामा तपाईं धर्मी हुनुहुन्छ किनकि तपाईंले विश्‍वाससाथ व्यवहार गर्नुभएको छ, तर हामीले चाहिँ दुष्‍टतापूर्वक काम गरेका छौँ ।

And you [are] righteous on every [thing which] has come on us for faithfulness you have acted and we we have acted wickedly.

34 हाम्रा राजाहरू, हाम्रा राजकुमारहरू, हाम्रा पुजारीहरू र हाम्रा पिता-पुर्खाहरूले तपाईंको व्यवस्था पालन गरेका छैनन्, न त तपाईंका आज्ञाहरू वा तपाईंले तिनीहरूलाई चेताउनी दिनुभएका तपाईंका करारका आदेशहरूलाई ध्यान दिएका छन् ।

And kings our leaders our priests our and ancestors our not they did law your and not they paid attention to commandments your and to testimonies your which you admonished them.

35 तिनीहरूको आफ्नै राज्य हुँदा तपाईंले तिनीहरूलाई दिनुभएको विशाल र मलिलो देशमा तपाईंको महान् उदारतालाई तिनीहरूले उपभोग गर्दागर्दै पनि तिनीहरूले तपाईंको सेवा गरेनन्, न त तिनीहरूका दुष्‍ट मार्गहरूबाट फर्के ।

And they in own kingdom their and in goodness your great which you had given to them and in [the] land broad and fertile which you had set before them not they served you and not they turned back from deeds their evil.

36 हेर्नुहोस्, हामी दास भएका छौँ । अहिले हामी तपाईंले हाम्रा पिता-पुर्खाहरूलाई त्यसका फलहरू खान र त्यसका असल उब्जनीहरू उपभोग गर्नलाई दिनुभएको यही देशमा हामी दास भएका छौँ ।

Here! we this day [are] slaves and the land which you gave to ancestors our to eat fruit its and good thing[s] its here! we [are] slaves on it.

37 हाम्रा पापले गर्दा त्यसका प्रशस्त उब्जनीहरू हामीमाथि प्रभुत्व गर्न तपाईंले खटाउनुभएका राजाहरूकहाँ जान्छन् । तिनीहरूलाई इच्छा लागेअनुसार तिनीहरूले हाम्रा शरीरसाथै हाम्रा गाईवस्तुमाथि शासन गर्छन् । हामी बडो कष्‍टमा छौँ!

And produce its [is] increasing for the kings whom you have appointed over us in sins our and over bodies our [they are] ruling and over cattle our according to will their and [are] in distress great we.

38 यी सबै कारणले गर्दा हामी लेखेर नै दृढ करार बाँध्दछौँ । छाप लगाइएको दस्तावेजमा हाम्रा राजकुमारहरू, लेवीहरू र पुजारीहरूका नाउँ हुन्छन् ।”

And in all this we [are] making a trustworthy arrangement and writing and [are] on the sealed [document] leaders our Levites our priests our.
