< हितोपदेश 7 >
1 हे मेरो छोरो, मेरा वचनहरू पालन गर्, र मेरा आज्ञाहरू तँभित्र सञ्चय गरेर राख् ।
O son my keep words my and commandments my you will treasure with you.
2 मेरा आज्ञाहरू पालन गरेर बाँच्, र मेरो निर्देशनलाई तेरो आँखाको नानीजस्तै जोगाइराख् ।
Keep commandments my and live and instruction my like [the] pupil of eyes your.
3 तिनलाई तेरा औँलाहरूमा बेह्रेर राख् । तिनलाई तेरो हृदयको पाटीमा लेखेर राख् ।
Bind them on fingers your write them on [the] tablet of heart your.
4 बुद्धिलाई भन्, “तिमी मेरी बहिनी हौँ,” र समझशक्तिलाई आफ्नो आफन्त भन् ।
Say to wisdom [are] sister my you and a relative to discernment you will call.
5 तब तिनले तँलाई व्यभिचारी स्त्री र अनैतिक स्त्रीको मोहित तुल्याउने कुराहरूबाट बचाउने छन् ।
To keep you from a woman strange from a foreign [woman] [who] words her she makes smooth.
6 मेरो घरको झ्यालमा बसेर मैले आँखी-झ्यालबाट हेर्दै थिएँ ।
For at [the] window of house my through lattice my I looked down.
7 मैले सोझा मानिसहरूलाई हेरेँ, र युवाहरूका बिचमा एक जना निर्बुद्धिलाई ख्याल गरेँ ।
And I saw among the naive people I observed among the sons a youth lacking of heart.
8 त्यो जवान मानिस त्यस स्त्री बस्ने गल्ली नजिकबाट गयो, र त्यो स्त्रीको घरतर्फ लाग्यो ।
[who] was passing by In the street beside corner her and [the] direction of house her he strode.
9 साँझको बेलामा दिन ढल्कँदै थियो, जुन बेला अन्धकार छाएको थियो ।
At twilight in [the] evening of [the] day in [the] middle of [the] night and darkness.
10 एउटी स्त्रीले त्यसलाई भेटी, जसले वेश्याले जस्तै पहिरन लगाएकी थिई र त्यसको हृदय धूर्त थियो ।
And there! a woman to meet him [the] garment of a prostitute and guarded of heart.
11 त्यो चञ्चली र जिद्दीवाल थिई । त्यो आफ्नो घरमा बस्दिनथी ।
[is] boisterous She and rebellious in house her not they stay feet her.
12 त्यो कहिले सडकमा त कहिले बजारमा बस्थी, अनि हरेक कुनाकाप्चामा त्यो लुकेर बस्थी ।
A time - in the street a time in the open places and beside every corner she lies in wait.
13 त्यसले उसलाई पक्रेर चुम्बन गरी, र निर्लज्ज चेहरा लिएर भनी,
And she takes hold on him and she kisses him she has made firm face her and she said to him.
14 “आज मैले आफ्नो मेलबलि चढाएँ; मेरा भाकलहरू पुरा गरेँ ।
Sacrifices of peace offerings [are] on me this day I have paid vows my.
15 त्यसैले म तपाईंलाई भेट्न, उत्सुकतासाथ तपाईंको मुहार हेर्न आएकी हुँ, र अहिले मैले तपाईंलाई भेट्टाएकी छु ।
There-fore I have come out to meet you to seek face your and I have found you.
16 मैले मेरो ओछ्यानमा मिश्र देशको रङ्गिन तन्ना ओछ्याएकी छु ।
Coverings I have spread couch my colored fabrics linen of Egypt.
17 मैले मेरो ओछ्यानमा मूर्र, एलवा र दालचिनी छर्केकी छु ।
I have sprinkled bed my myrrh aloes and cinnamon.
18 आउनुहोस्, बिहानसम्मै हामी प्रेमको सागरमा डुबौँ । हामी प्रेमको कार्यमा रमाऔँ ।
Come! let us take our fill of love until the morning let us delight ourselves with love.
19 किनकि मेरा पति घरमा हुनुहुन्न । उहाँ लामो यात्रामा जानुभएको छ ।
For not the husband [is] in house his he has gone on a journey from a distance.
20 उहाँले आफूसित पैसाको थैली लिएर जानुभएको छ । उहाँ पूर्णिमामा मात्र घर फर्कनुहुने छ ।”
[the] bag of Money he has taken in hand his to [the] day of the full moon he will come house his.
21 धेरै कुराकानी गरेर त्यो उसकहाँ फर्की । त्यसले आफ्ना मोहित तुल्याउने कुराहरूलाई उसलाई फकाई ।
She turns him with [the] greatness of persuasiveness her with [the] seductiveness of lips her she impels him.
22 मारिनलाई लगिएको गोरुझैँ र पासोमा परेको मृगझैँ त्यो अकस्मात् स्त्रीको पछि लाग्यो ।
[he is] walking Behind her suddenly like an ox [which] to [the] slaughter it goes and like an anklet to [the] chastening of a fool.
23 वाणले त्यसको कलेजो नछेडेसम्म त्यो पछि लागरिरह्यो । त्यो जालतिर कुदिरहरेको चरोजस्तो थियो । आफ्नो ज्यानै गुमाउनुपर्थ्यो भनी त्यसलाई थाहा थिएन ।
Until it will pierce an arrow liver his as hurries a bird into a trap and not he knows that [is] for life his it.
24 अब हे मेरा छोराहरू हो, मेरो कुरा सुन । मेरा मुखका वचनहरूलाई ध्यान देओ ।
And therefore O children listen to me and be attentive to [the] words of mouth my.
25 तिमीहरूको हृदय त्यसका मार्गहरूमा नलागोस् । त्यसका मार्गहरूमा बरालिएर नजाओ ।
May not it turn aside to ways her heart your may not it go astray in pathways her.
26 त्यसले धेरै मानिसहरूलाई फसाएकी छे । त्यसका सिकारहरू धेरै छन् ।
For many slain [ones] she has made fall and [are] numerous all killed [men] her.
27 त्यसको घर पातालका मार्गहरूमा छ । तिनीहरू मृत्युका अन्धकारपूर्ण कोठाहरूमा जान्छन् । (Sheol )
[is] [the] ways of Sheol house her [which] go down to [the] chambers of death. (Sheol )
