Exodus 32 in Nepali

1 मोशा पर्वतबाट तल नओर्लेको धेरै दिन भइसकेको मानिसहरूलाई थाहा भयो। यसर्थ मानिसहरूले हारूनलाई वरिपरि घेरेर भने, “हेर, मोशाले हामीलाई अगुवाई गरी मिश्रबाट बाहिर लिएर आउनु भयो। हामीलाई थाहा छैन तिनलाई के भयो। यसर्थ हाम्रो अगुवाई गर्न हाम्रोलागि केही देवताहरू बनाऊ।”

2 हारूनले तिनीहरूलाई भने, “तिमीहरूकी आफ्नी पत्नीहरू अनि छोरीहरूले कानमा लगाएका सुनको कुण्डलहरू मकहाँ ल्याऊ।”

3 यसकारण सबै मानिसहरूले कानका सुनको कुण्डलहरू जम्मा गरे अनि हारून कहाँ ल्याए।

4 हारूनले तिनीहरूबाट सुन लिए, पगालेर यसको एउटा बाछोको मूर्ति बनाए अनि उनले यसलाई सुनले मोहरी दिए।तब मानिसहरूले भने, “हे इस्राएल यिनीहरू तिमीहरूको देवताहरू हो जसले तिमीहरूलाई मिश्र बाहिर ल्याए।”

5 हारूनले यी सब देखे अनि तिनले बाछाको अघि एउटा वेदी बनाए। त्यसपछि तिनले घोषणा गरे, “परमप्रभुको सम्मानमा भोलि एक विशेष चाड मनाइनेछ।”

6 मानिसहरू बिहान चाँडै उठे पशुहरू मारेर होमबलिहरू चढाए अनि मेलबलिहरू चढाए। मानिसहरू खान तल बसे, तब रमाइलो गर्न उठे।

7 तब परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्नु भयो, “पर्वतबाट तल ओर्ली हाल। तिमीले मिश्र देशबाट ल्याएका ती तिम्रा मानिसहरूले असाध्यै पाप गरिरहेका छन्।

8 तिनीहरूले यति चाडै नियमहरूलाई त्यागे जुन मैले तिनीहरूलाई अनुसरण गर्नु भनी आज्ञा दिएको थिएँ। तिनीहरूले सुन पगालेर एउटा बाछो बनाएका छन् र त्यही बाछोलाई पूजा गर्दैछन् र बलिहरू चढाइरहेका छन्। ती मानिसहरूले भने, ‘हे इस्राएली, यहाँ तिमीहरूका देवताहरू छन् जसले तिमीहरूलाई मिश्रबाहिर ल्याए।”‘

9 परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्नुभयो, “त्यो मैले देखे यी मानिसहरू एकदमै अट्टेरी छन्।

10 यसकारण मलाई एक्लो छोडिदेऊ मेरो क्रोध तिनीहरूमाथि उठ्नेछ अनि तिनीहरूलाई ध्वंश गरिदिनेछ। तब म तिम्रा सन्तानलाई एउटा ठूलो जाति बनाउनेछु।”

11 तर मोशाले परमप्रभु उसका परमेश्वरलाई शान्त गराए अनि भने, “हे परमप्रभु तपाईंका आफ्नै मानिसहरूसित चाँडै क्रोधित नहुनुहोस्। तपाईंले यी मानिसहरूलाई मिश्रबाट तपाईंका विशाल अद्भुत शक्ति र बल प्रयोग गरेर बाहिर ल्याउनु भयो।

12 यदि तपाईंले तिनीहरूलाई ध्वंश पार्नु भयो भने, ‘मानिसहरूले सोच्ने छन् परमप्रभुले मानिसहरूलाई मिश्र बाहिर लगेको कारण तिनीहरूलाई पर्वतमाथि ध्वंश पार्न मात्र रहेछ।’ यसर्थ तपाईंका आफ्नै मानिसहरूसंग क्रोधित नहुनुहोस्। तपाईंको मन बदली गर्नुहोस् र तपाईंका मानिसहरूलाई नमार्नु होस्।

13 अब्राहाम, इसहाक तथा याकूबलाई सम्झना गर्नु होस्, ती मानिसहरूले तपाईंलाई सेवा गरेका थिए अनि तपाईंले एउटा प्रतिज्ञा गर्नुभयो। तपाईंले भन्नु भयो, ‘म तिमीहरूका सन्तानलाई आकाशका ताराहरू भन्दा वेशी बनाउनेछु अनि तिनीहरूलाई सम्पूर्ण भूमि दिनु भयो। यो भूमि तिनीहरूलाई सदाको निम्ति हुनेछ।”‘

14 यसर्थ परमप्रभुले आफ्नो हृदयलाई कोमल बनाउनु भयो अनि उहाँले के गर्न चाहनु भएको थियो त्यो गर्नु भएन। उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई ध्वंश गर्नु भएन।

15 तब मोशा पर्वतबाट तल ओर्लिए। तिनीसित दुवैपट्टि करार लेखिएको दुइवटा शिला-पाटीहरू थियो। यी पाटीहरूमा दुवै पट्टि लेखेको थियो।

16 यी पाटीहरू परमेश्वर आफैंले बनाउनु भयो, अनि यसमाथि आज्ञाहरू लेख्नु भयो।

17 जब मोशा पर्वतबाट तलतिर ओर्लिदै थिए यहोशूले मानिसहरूलाई चिंच्याउदै गरेको सुने, यहोशूले मोशालाई भने, “मैले छाउनीभित्र युद्धको ध्वनि सुने।”

18 मोशाले उत्तर दिए, “यो आवाज सेनाहरूको विजय ध्वनि होइन। अनि यो हार्ने सेनाहरूको आवाज पनि होइन। त्यो आवाज जो म सुन्दैछु, त्यो संगीतको स्वर हो।”

19 मोशा छाउनी नजिक आइपुगे अनि त्यहाँ एउटा बाछो र मानिसहरू नाच्दै गरेको देखे। मोशा एकदमै क्रोधित भए अनि तिनीसित भएको च्याप्टो ढुङ्गाहरू भूँईमा फ्याँके। पर्वतको बेंसीमा ती ढुङ्गाहरू फुटेर टुक्रा-टुक्रा भए।

20 तब मोशाले बाछालाई पगाले र यसलाई धूलो पारे। तब उनले धूलोलाई पानीभित्र हाले, उनले त्यो पानी इस्राएलीहरूलाई पिउन कर लगाए।

21 उसले हारूनलाई भने, “यी मानिसहरूले तिमीलाई के गरे? किन तिनीहरूमाथि तिमीले यस्तो ठूलो पाप ल्यायौ?”

22 हारूनले उत्तर दिए, “हजूर, क्रोधित नहुनु होस्। तपाईंलाई थाहा छ यी मानिसहरू सँधै केही गल्ती गर्न तैयार नै रहन्छन्।

23 यी मानिसहरूले मलाई भने, ‘मोशाले हामीलाई मिश्र देशबाट अगुवाई गर्नु भयो, तर उहाँलाई के भयो हामी जान्दैनौं, यसर्थ हाम्रो अगुवाई गर्न केही देवताहरू बनाऊ।’

24 यसकारण मैले तिनीहरूलाई भनें तिनीहरूको सुन ल्याऊ तिनीहरूले त्यो मलाई दिए। मैले त्यो सुन आगोमा हाले र आगोबाट त्यो बाछो निस्कियो।”

25 मोशाले देखे हारूनले मानिसहरूलाई नियन्त्रणबाट बाहिर जान दिए, मानिसहरू जंगली जस्तो कुदिरहे अनि तिनीहरूका सबै शत्रुहरूले तिनीहरूको मूर्खको जस्तो व्यवहार देखे।

26 यसर्थ मोशा छाउनीको प्रवेशद्वारमा उभिए र भने, “परमप्रभुलाई समर्पण गर्ने जो पनि मेरो वरिपरि भेला हुनुपर्छ। सबै लेवीहरू उनको वरिपरि भेला भए।”

27 त्यसपछि मोशाले तिनीहरूलाई भने, “परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्वरले के भन्नु भएको छ म तिमीहरूलाई भन्नेछु ‘प्रत्येकले हातमा तरवार लिएर छाउनीको एक कुनादेखि अर्को कुनासम्म जानुपर्छ। तिमीहरूले आफ्नो दाज्यू-भाइ, साथीहरू, अनि छिमेकीहरूलाई मार्नै पर्छ।”‘

28 लेवीहरूले मोशाको आज्ञा पालन गरे अनि त्यस दिन लगभग तीन हजार इस्राएलीहरूले ज्यान गुमाए।

29 त्यसपछि मोशाले भने, “आज तिमीहरूका छोराहरू अनि दाज्यू-भाइ मारेर आफूलाई परमप्रभुको सेवामा सर्मपण गर्यौ। यसको निम्ति तिमीहरूले आशिष पाउनेछौ।”

30 अर्को बिहान मोशाले मानिसहरूलाई भने, “तिमीहरूले असाध्यै ठूलो पाप गर्यौ। अब म परमप्रभुकहाँ जानेछु। हुन सक्छ म तिमीहरूको पापका निम्ति प्रायश्चित गर्नु सक्छु।”

31 तब, मोशा परमप्रभुकहाँ गए अनि भने, “दया गरी सुन्नु होस्, यी मानिसहरूले सुनको देवता बनाए र साह्रै नराम्रो पाप गरेका थिए।

32 अब यिनीहरूका पाप क्षमा गरि दिनुहोस्। यदि तिनीहरूलाई क्षमा गर्नु हुँदैन भने तपाईंले लेख्नु भएको पुस्तकबाट मेरो नाउँ निशान मोटाइ दिनुहोस्।”

33 तर परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्नु भयो, “ज-जसले मेरो विरोधमा पाप गरेकाछन्, म तिनीहरूको नाउँहरू मेरो पुस्तकबाट हटाउने छु।

34 यसर्थ तल गएर मैले जहाँ जानु भन्छु त्यहाँ तिनीहरूको अगुवाइ गर। मेरो स्वर्गदूतले तिमीलाई अगुवाई गर्नेछ। जब पाप गर्ने मानिसहरूलाई दण्ड दिने समय आउँछ तिनीहरूलाई दण्ड दिइनेछ।”

35 यसर्थ परमप्रभुले मानिसहरूमाथि डरलाग्दो बिमार खन्याई दिनु भयो। उहाँले यसो गर्नु भयो किनभने हारूनले अगुवाइ गरेका मानिसहरूले एउटा सुनका बाछो बनाएका थिए।

1 And when the people saw that Moses delayed to come down out of the mount, the people gathered themselves together unto Aaron, and said unto him, Up, make us gods, which shall go before us; for as for this Moses, the man that brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we wot not what is become of him.

2 And Aaron said unto them, Break off the golden earrings, which are in the ears of your wives, of your sons, and of your daughters, and bring them unto me.

3 And all the people brake off the golden earrings which were in their ears, and brought them unto Aaron.

4 And he received them at their hand, and fashioned it with a graving tool, after he had made it a molten calf: and they said, These be thy gods, O Israel, which brought thee up out of the land of Egypt.

5 And when Aaron saw it, he built an altar before it; and Aaron made proclamation, and said, To morrow is a feast to the Lord.

6 And they rose up early on the morrow, and offered burnt offerings, and brought peace offerings; and the people sat down to eat and to drink, and rose up to play.

7 And the Lord said unto Moses, Go, get thee down; for thy people, which thou broughtest out of the land of Egypt, have corrupted themselves:

8 They have turned aside quickly out of the way which I commanded them: they have made them a molten calf, and have worshipped it, and have sacrificed thereunto, and said, These be thy gods, O Israel, which have brought thee up out of the land of Egypt.

9 And the Lord said unto Moses, I have seen this people, and, behold, it is a stiffnecked people:

10 Now therefore let me alone, that my wrath may wax hot against them, and that I may consume them: and I will make of thee a great nation.

11 And Moses besought the Lord his God, and said, Lord, why doth thy wrath wax hot against thy people, which thou hast brought forth out of the land of Egypt with great power, and with a mighty hand?

12 Wherefore should the Egyptians speak, and say, For mischief did he bring them out, to slay them in the mountains, and to consume them from the face of the earth? Turn from thy fierce wrath, and repent of this evil against thy people.

13 Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, thy servants, to whom thou swarest by thine own self, and saidst unto them, I will multiply your seed as the stars of heaven, and all this land that I have spoken of will I give unto your seed, and they shall inherit it for ever.

14 And the Lord repented of the evil which he thought to do unto his people.

15 And Moses turned, and went down from the mount, and the two tables of the testimony were in his hand: the tables were written on both their sides; on the one side and on the other were they written.

16 And the tables were the work of God, and the writing was the writing of God, graven upon the tables.

17 And when Joshua heard the noise of the people as they shouted, he said unto Moses, There is a noise of war in the camp.

18 And he said, It is not the voice of them that shout for mastery, neither is it the voice of them that cry for being overcome: but the noise of them that sing do I hear.

19 And it came to pass, as soon as he came nigh unto the camp, that he saw the calf, and the dancing: and Moses’ anger waxed hot, and he cast the tables out of his hands, and brake them beneath the mount.

20 And he took the calf which they had made, and burnt it in the fire, and ground it to powder, and strawed it upon the water, and made the children of Israel drink of it.

21 And Moses said unto Aaron, What did this people unto thee, that thou hast brought so great a sin upon them?

22 And Aaron said, Let not the anger of my lord wax hot: thou knowest the people, that they are set on mischief.

23 For they said unto me, Make us gods, which shall go before us: for as for this Moses, the man that brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we wot not what is become of him.

24 And I said unto them, Whosoever hath any gold, let them break it off. So they gave it me: then I cast it into the fire, and there came out this calf.

25 And when Moses saw that the people were naked; (for Aaron had made them naked unto their shame among their enemies:)

26 Then Moses stood in the gate of the camp, and said, Who is on the Lord’s side? let him come unto me. And all the sons of Levi gathered themselves together unto him.

27 And he said unto them, Thus saith the Lord God of Israel, Put every man his sword by his side, and go in and out from gate to gate throughout the camp, and slay every man his brother, and every man his companion, and every man his neighbour.

28 And the children of Levi did according to the word of Moses: and there fell of the people that day about three thousand men.

29 For Moses had said, Consecrate yourselves to day to the Lord, even every man upon his son, and upon his brother; that he may bestow upon you a blessing this day.

30 And it came to pass on the morrow, that Moses said unto the people, Ye have sinned a great sin: and now I will go up unto the Lord; peradventure I shall make an atonement for your sin.

31 And Moses returned unto the Lord, and said, Oh, this people have sinned a great sin, and have made them gods of gold.

32 Yet now, if thou wilt forgive their sin—; and if not, blot me, I pray thee, out of thy book which thou hast written.

33 And the Lord said unto Moses, Whosoever hath sinned against me, him will I blot out of my book.

34 Therefore now go, lead the people unto the place of which I have spoken unto thee: behold, mine Angel shall go before thee: nevertheless in the day when I visit I will visit their sin upon them.

35 And the Lord plagued the people, because they made the calf, which Aaron made.
