2 ହେ ସ୍ବର୍ଗ, ହେ ପୃଥିବୀ, ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁଙ୍କ ବାର୍ତ୍ତା ଶୁଣ। ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ କହିଛନ୍ତି, ଆମ୍ଭେ ସନ୍ତାନଗଣଙ୍କୁ ପ୍ରତିପାଳନ ଓ ଭରଣପୋଷଣ କରିଅଛୁ, ମାତ୍ର ସମାନେେ ଆମ୍ଭର ବିରୁଦ୍ଧାଚରଣ କରିଛନ୍ତି।
3 ଗାଈ ତା'ର ମୁନିବକୁ ଜାଣେ, ଗଧ ନିଜର ମୁନିବର ସଂଚାଳକଙ୍କୁ ଜାଣେ, ମାତ୍ର ଇଶ୍ରାୟେଲ ଲୋକମାନେ ମାେତେ ଚିହ୍ନିପାରିଲେ ନାହିଁ। ମାରେଲୋକମାନେ ମାେତେ ବୁଝୁ ନାହାଁନ୍ତି।'
4 ଇଶ୍ରାୟେଲ ଗୋଷ୍ଠୀ ପାପ ରେ ପରିପୂର୍ଣ୍ଣ। ସମାନେେ ଅଧର୍ମ ଓ ପାପ ରେ ଭାରାକ୍ରାନ୍ତ। ସମାନେେ ଏକ ଭ୍ରଷ୍ଟାଚାରୀ ବଂଶ ଦୁଷ୍କର୍ମକାରୀ ସନ୍ତାନଗଣ। ସମାନେେ ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁଙ୍କୁ ପରିତ୍ଯାଗ କରିଛନ୍ତି। ସମାନେେ ଇଶ୍ରାୟେଲର ପବିତ୍ର ପୁରୁଷଙ୍କୁ ଅବଜ୍ଞା କରିଛନ୍ତି। ସମାନେେ ତାଙ୍କୁ ଜଣେ ଅଜଣାବ୍ଯକ୍ତି ପରି ବ୍ଯବହାର କରିଛନ୍ତି ଓ ଛାଡ଼ି ଚାଲିୟାଇଛନ୍ତି।
5 ପରମେଶ୍ବର କୁହନ୍ତି, ଆମ୍ଭେ କାହିଁକି ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କ ପ୍ରତି ଶାସ୍ତି ବିଧାନ କରି ଚାଲିବୁ। ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କୁ ଦଣ୍ଡ ଦଲେୁ। ମାତ୍ର ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କର କିଛି ପରିବର୍ତ୍ତନ ହେଲା ନାହିଁ। ତୁମ୍ଭମାନେେ ମାେ ବିରୁଦ୍ଧ ରେ ବିଦ୍ରୋହ କରି ଚାଲିଛ। ବର୍ତ୍ତମାନ ସମସ୍ତ ମସ୍ତକ ଓ ସମସ୍ତ ହୃଦଯ ପୀଡ଼ିତ।
6 ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କର ଆପାଦମସ୍ତକ କ୍ଷତ ବିକ୍ଷତ ଓ ପୂଜ ଘା' ରେ ପରିପୂର୍ଣ୍ଣ। ତୁମ୍ଭମାନେେ ସେ କ୍ଷତର ଯତ୍ନ ନଲେ ନାହିଁ। ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କର ସହେି କ୍ଷତଗୁଡ଼ିକ ପରିଷ୍କୃତ ହାଇେ ନାହିଁ କିମ୍ବା ଆବୃତ ହାଇେ ନାହିଁ।
7 ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କର ଦେଶ ଧ୍ବଂସ ପ୍ରାପ୍ତ। ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କର ନଗରଗୁଡ଼ିକ ଅଗ୍ନି ରେ ଭସ୍ମିଭୂତ ହାଇେଅଛି। ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କର ଦେଶ ଶତ୍ରୁମାନଙ୍କ ଦ୍ବାରା ଅଧିକୃତ। ସୈନ୍ଯବାହିନୀ ଦ୍ବାରା ଦେଶ ଧ୍ବଂସ ହେଲା ପରି ତୁମ୍ଭର ଦେଶ ଧ୍ବଂସ ହାଇୟୋଇଛି।
8 ସିୟୋନର କନ୍ଯା ପରିତ୍ଯକ୍ତ ଦ୍ରାକ୍ଷା କ୍ଷେତ୍ର ରେ ଗୋଟିଏ କୁଡ଼ିଆ ସଦୃଶ ଦଖାଯାେଉଛି। ଏକ ପରିତ୍ଯକ୍ତ କାକୁଡ଼ିକ୍ଷେତ୍ର ସଦୃଶ ପରି। ଆଉ ଏହା ଶତ୍ରୁମାନଙ୍କ ଦ୍ବାରା ଅବରୋଧିତ ନଗର ସଦୃଶ ହାଇେଅଛି।'
9 ଏହା ସତ୍ଯ ଅଟେ। ମାତ୍ର ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ ସର୍ବଶକ୍ତିମାନ ଅବଶିଷ୍ଟ ଅଳ୍ପ ଲୋକଙ୍କୁ ବଞ୍ଚିବାକୁ ଦେଲେ। ତା ନ ହାଇେଥିଲେ ଆମ୍ଭମାନେେ ସଦୋମ ଓ ହ ମାରୋର ପରି ସମ୍ପୂର୍ଣ୍ଣରୂପେ ଧ୍ବଂସ ପାଇଥାନ୍ତୁ।
10 ହେ ସଦୋମର ପ୍ରାଚୀନଗଣ, ତୁମ୍ଭମାନେେ ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁଙ୍କର ବାର୍ତ୍ତା ଶୁଣ। ହେ ହ ମାରୋର ଲୋକମାନେ ପରମେଶ୍ବରଙ୍କ ଶିକ୍ଷାସମୂହ ପ୍ରତି ଧ୍ଯାନ ଦିଅ।
11 ପରମେଶ୍ବର କୁହନ୍ତି, ମୁଁ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କର ଏହି ବଳିଦାନସବୁ କାହିଁକି ଦରକାର କରେ। ମୁଁ ମଷେର ଓ ହୃଷ୍ଟପୃଷ୍ଟ ଗୋରୁଗାଈର ମଦରେ ହାମବେଳି ପ୍ରତି ବିତୃଷ୍ଣା ହାଇେ ୟାଇଛି। ମୁଁ ଆଉ ଷଣ୍ଢ ମଷେ ଓ ଛାଗମାନଙ୍କର ରକ୍ତ ଚା ହେଁ ନାହିଁ।
12 ଯେତବେେଳେ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନେେ ମାେତେ ସାକ୍ଷାତ କରିବାକୁ ଆସିଛ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନେେ ମାରେ ପ୍ରାଙ୍ଗଣ ରେ ସମସ୍ତ ଜିନିଷକୁ ପଦଦଳିତ କରିଛ। କିଏ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କୁ ଏହା କରିବାକୁ କହିଥିଲା ?
13 ତୁମ୍ଭମାନେେ ମାେତେ ଆଉ ଏହି ଅର୍ଥହୀନ ବଳିଦାନ ଉତ୍ସର୍ଗ ଆଣ ନାହିଁ। ତୁମ୍ଭର ଧୂପକୁ ମୁଁ ଘୃଣା କରେ। ତୁମ୍ଭର ଅମାବାସ୍ଯା, ସ୍ବତନ୍ତ୍ର ପର୍ବ ଓ ବିଶ୍ରାମଦିନ ଉତ୍ସବକୁ ମୁଁ ସହି ପାରୁ ନାହିଁ। ତୁମ୍ଭମାନେେ ପବିତ୍ର ମହାସଭା ରେ ଯେଉଁ ଅଧର୍ମ କରିଛ ମୁଁ ତାହା ସହିପାରୁ ନାହିଁ।
14 ଆମ୍ଭର ପ୍ରାଣ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କର ଅମାବାସ୍ଯା ଓ ନିରୂପିତ ପର୍ବମାନଙ୍କୁ ଘୃଣା କରେ। ସହେିସବୁ ଭାର ଆମ୍ଭପ୍ରତି କ୍ଲେଶଦାୟକ ଓ ଆମ୍ଭେ ସେ ଭାର ବହନ କରିବାକୁ କ୍ଲାନ୍ତ ହାଇେଅଛୁ।
15 ତୁମ୍ଭମାନେେ ସବୁ ହସ୍ତ ପ୍ରସାରଣ କରି ମାେତେ ପ୍ରାର୍ଥନା କରିବ, ମାତ୍ର ମୁଁ ବିମୁଖ ହାଇେ ଚକ୍ଷୁ ଆଚ୍ଛାଦିତ କରିବି। ତୁମ୍ଭମାନେେ ସବୁ ଅନକେ ପ୍ରାର୍ଥନା କରିବ, ମାତ୍ର ମୁଁ ତାହା ଶୁଣିବି ନାହିଁ। କାରଣ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କର ହସ୍ତ ରକ୍ତ ରେ ପରିପୂର୍ଣ୍ଣ।
16 ତୁମ୍ଭମାନେେ ନିଜକୁ ପ୍ରକ୍ଷାଳନ କର। ନିଜକୁ ପରିଷ୍କାର କର। ମନ୍ଦ କାର୍ୟ୍ଯରୁ ନିବୃତ ହୁଅ। ମୁଁ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କର ସହେି ମନ୍ଦ କର୍ମ ଦେଖିବାକୁ ଇଚ୍ଛା କରେ ନାହିଁ। କୁକର୍ମରୁ ନିବୃତ୍ତ ହୁଅ।
17 ସୁକର୍ମ କରିବାକୁ ଶିକ୍ଷା କର। ଅନ୍ୟମାନଙ୍କ ପ୍ରତି ନ୍ଯାଯ ଆଚରଣ କର। ଅନ୍ୟକୁ ଆଘାତ କରୁଥିବା ବ୍ଯକ୍ତିଙ୍କୁ ଦଣ୍ଡ ଦିଅ। ପିତୃମାତୃହୀନ ସନ୍ତାନମାନଙ୍କୁ ସାହାୟ୍ଯ କର। ବିଧବାମାନଙ୍କୁ ସାହାୟ୍ଯ କର।'
18 ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ ପୁଣି କୁହନ୍ତି, ଆସ, ମାେ ସହିତ ଆଳାପ କର। ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କର ପାପ ସିନ୍ଦୁର ବର୍ଣ୍ଣ ପରି ଲାଲ ହେଲେ ହେଁ ବରଫ ସଦୃଶ ଶୁଭ୍ର ହବେ। ଆଉ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କର ପାପ ଉଜ୍ଜ୍ବଳ ଲୋହିତ ବର୍ଣ୍ଣ ପରି ହେଲେ ହେଁ ମଷେ ଲୋମ ସଦୃଶ ଶୁଭ୍ର ହବେ।
19 ଯଦି ତୁମ୍ଭମାନେେ ମାରେ ବାକ୍ଯ ପ୍ରତି ଧ୍ଯାନ ଦବେ ଓ ମାରେ ଆଜ୍ଞାବହ ହବେ ତବେେ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନେେ ଦେଶ ରେ ଉତ୍ତମ ଫଳ ଭୋଗ କରିବ।
20 ଯଦି ତୁମ୍ଭମାନେେ ମାରେ ବାକ୍ଯ ପ୍ରତି ଧ୍ଯାନ ନ ଦିଅ ଏବଂ ମାରେ ବିରୁଦ୍ଧାଚରଣ କର, ତବେେ ତୁମ୍ଭର ଶତ୍ରୁ ତୁମ୍ଭକୁ ଧ୍ବଂସ କରିବେ।'
21 ପରମେଶ୍ବର କୁହନ୍ତି, ୟିରୁଶାଲମ୍ ଏକ ନଗର ଯାହା ମାେ ପ୍ରତି ବିଶ୍ବସ୍ତ ଥିଲା। କିଏ ଏହାକୁ ଏକ ବ୍ଯଭିଚାରିଣୀ ରେ ପରିଣତ କଲା? ୟିରୁଶାଲମ୍ ନ୍ଯାଯ ପୂର୍ଣ୍ଣ ହବୋ ଉଚିତ୍। ୟିରୁଶାଲମର ଲୋକମାନେ ଯାହା ଠିକ୍ ତାହା କରିବା ଉଚିତ୍। ବର୍ତ୍ତମାନ ଏହା ତଣ୍ଟିକଟା ଓ ହତ୍ଯାକାରୀମାନଙ୍କର ବାସସ୍ଥାନ ରେ ପରିଣତ ହାଇେଛି।
22 ଉତ୍ତମଗୁଣ ରୂପା ସଦୃଶ। ମାତ୍ର ତୁମ୍ଭର ରୂପା ଖାଦ ପାଲଟିଛି। ତୁମ୍ଭର ଦ୍ରାକ୍ଷାରସ ଜଳମିଶ୍ରିତ ହାଇେଅଛି। ଉତ୍ତମଗୁଣ ଦୁର୍ବଳ ହାଇେଛି।
23 ତୁମ୍ଭର ଶାସକଗଣ ବିଦ୍ରୋହୀ ହାଇେଛନ୍ତି ଓ ଚୋରମାନଙ୍କର ବନ୍ଧୁ ହାଇେଛନ୍ତି। ତୁମ୍ଭର ସମସ୍ତ ଶାସକ ଲାଞ୍ଚକୁ ଭଲ ପାଆନ୍ତି। ଅନ୍ଯାଯ କାର୍ୟ୍ଯ ପାଇଁ ପାରିତୋଷିକ ଗ୍ରହଣ କରନ୍ତି। ଆଉ ସହେି ଶାସକମାନେ ଲୋକଙ୍କୁ ଠକିବାକୁ ଅର୍ଥ ନିଅନ୍ତି। ତୁମ୍ଭର ସହେି ଶାସକଗଣ ଅନାଥ ପିଲାମାନଙ୍କୁ ଓ ବିଧବାମାନଙ୍କୁ ସମାନଙ୍କେର ଦରକାର ବେଳେ ସାହାୟ୍ଯ କରନ୍ତି ନାହିଁ।'
24 ଏହିସବୁ ପ୍ରଭୁ ସର୍ବଶକ୍ତିମାନ ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ ଇଶ୍ରାୟେଲ ବଳଦାତା କୁହନ୍ତି, ମୁଁ ମାରେ ଶତ୍ରୁମାନଙ୍କୁ ଶାସ୍ତି ଦବେି, ମୁଁ ମାରେ ଶତ୍ରୁମାନଙ୍କୁ ଶାସ୍ତି ଦବେି।
25 ଲୋକମନେ ରୂପାର ଖାଦ ଦୂର କରିବାକୁ ଏକ ପ୍ରକାର ଜିନିଷ ବ୍ଯବହାର କରନ୍ତି। ସହେିପରି ଭାବରେ ମୁଁ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କର ଅପବିତ୍ରତାକୁ ଦୂର କରିବି। ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କ ଭିତରୁ ସମସ୍ତ ମନ୍ଦ ଜିନିଷ କାଢ଼ିନବେି ଓ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କୁ ପବିତ୍ର କରିବି।
26 ଆଦ୍ଯ ସମୟ ପରି ମୁଁ ବିଚାରକାରୀଗଣଙ୍କୁ ଫରୋଇ ଆଣିବି। ପୂର୍ବେ ପୂର୍ବର ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କର ମନ୍ତ୍ରୀମାନଙ୍କ ପରି ପରାମର୍ଶଦାତାଙ୍କୁ ପୁନଃସ୍ଥାପନା କରିବି। ତାପ ରେ ତୁମ୍ଭେ 'ଉତ୍ତମ ଓ ବିଶ୍ବସ୍ତ ନଗରୀ ବୋଲି କଥିତ ହବେ।'
27 ପରମେଶ୍ବର ଉତ୍ତମ ଏବଂ ସେ ନ୍ଯାଯ ବିଚାର କରନ୍ତି। ତେଣୁ ସେ ସିୟୋନକୁ ରକ୍ଷା କରିବେ ଏବଂ ଲୋକମାନେ ତାଙ୍କ ନିକଟକୁ ପ୍ରତ୍ଯାବର୍ତ୍ତନ କରିବେ।
28 ମାତ୍ର ସମସ୍ତ ଅଧର୍ମାଚାରୀ ଓ ପାପୀଗଣ ବିନଷ୍ଟ ହବେେ। ଯେଉଁମାନେ ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁଙ୍କୁ ଅବଜ୍ଞା କରନ୍ତି ସମାନେେ ସଂହାରିତ ହବେେ।
29 ତୁମ୍ଭମାନେେ ପୂଜାକରିବାକୁ ବାଛିଥିବା ଆଲୋନଗଛ ଓ ସ୍ବତନ୍ତ୍ର ବଗିଚା ପାଇଁ ଭବିଷ୍ଯତ ରେ ଲୋକମାନେ ଲଜ୍ଜିତ ହବେେ।
30 ଏହା ଘଟିବ କାରଣ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନେେ ଶୁଷ୍କ ପତ୍ର ବିଶିଷ୍ଟ ଆଲୋନଗଛ ଓ ନିର୍ଜନ ଉଦ୍ୟାନ ସଦୃଶ ହବେ।
31 ଶକ୍ତିଶାଳୀ ମାନବ ଶୁଷ୍କ କାଠି ସଦୃଶ ହବେେ ଏବଂ ସମାନଙ୍କେର କର୍ମ ଅଗ୍ନିକଣା ସଦୃଶ ହବେ। ସହେି ବଳବାନ୍ ଲୋକମାନେ ଓ ସମାନଙ୍କେର କର୍ମ ସବୁ ଅଗ୍ନି ରେ ପୋଡ଼ି ଦବେେ। ସହେି ଅଗ୍ନିକୁ କହେି ନିର୍ବାପିତ କରିପାରିବେ ନାହିଁ।
1 The vision of Isaiah the son of Amoz, which he saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah.
2 Hear, O heavens, and give ear, O earth: for the Lord hath spoken, I have nourished and brought up children, and they have rebelled against me.
3 The ox knoweth his owner, and the ass his master’s crib: but Israel doth not know, my people doth not consider.
4 Ah sinful nation, a people laden with iniquity, a seed of evildoers, children that are corrupters: they have forsaken the Lord, they have provoked the Holy One of Israel unto anger, they are gone away backward.
5 Why should ye be stricken any more? ye will revolt more and more: the whole head is sick, and the whole heart faint.
6 From the sole of the foot even unto the head there is no soundness in it; but wounds, and bruises, and putrifying sores: they have not been closed, neither bound up, neither mollified with ointment.
7 Your country is desolate, your cities are burned with fire: your land, strangers devour it in your presence, and it is desolate, as overthrown by strangers.
8 And the daughter of Zion is left as a cottage in a vineyard, as a lodge in a garden of cucumbers, as a besieged city.
9 Except the Lord of hosts had left unto us a very small remnant, we should have been as Sodom, and we should have been like unto Gomorrah.
10 Hear the word of the Lord, ye rulers of Sodom; give ear unto the law of our God, ye people of Gomorrah.
11 To what purpose is the multitude of your sacrifices unto me? saith the Lord: I am full of the burnt offerings of rams, and the fat of fed beasts; and I delight not in the blood of bullocks, or of lambs, or of he goats.
12 When ye come to appear before me, who hath required this at your hand, to tread my courts?
13 Bring no more vain oblations; incense is an abomination unto me; the new moons and sabbaths, the calling of assemblies, I cannot away with; it is iniquity, even the solemn meeting.
14 Your new moons and your appointed feasts my soul hateth: they are a trouble unto me; I am weary to bear them.
15 And when ye spread forth your hands, I will hide mine eyes from you: yea, when ye make many prayers, I will not hear: your hands are full of blood.
16 Wash you, make you clean; put away the evil of your doings from before mine eyes; cease to do evil;
17 Learn to do well; seek judgment, relieve the oppressed, judge the fatherless, plead for the widow.
18 Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.
19 If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land:
20 But if ye refuse and rebel, ye shall be devoured with the sword: for the mouth of the Lord hath spoken it.
21 How is the faithful city become an harlot! it was full of judgment; righteousness lodged in it; but now murderers.
22 Thy silver is become dross, thy wine mixed with water:
23 Thy princes are rebellious, and companions of thieves: every one loveth gifts, and followeth after rewards: they judge not the fatherless, neither doth the cause of the widow come unto them.
24 Therefore saith the Lord, the Lord of hosts, the mighty One of Israel, Ah, I will ease me of mine adversaries, and avenge me of mine enemies:
25 And I will turn my hand upon thee, and purely purge away thy dross, and take away all thy tin:
26 And I will restore thy judges as at the first, and thy counsellers as at the beginning: afterward thou shalt be called, The city of righteousness, the faithful city.
27 Zion shall be redeemed with judgment, and her converts with righteousness.
28 And the destruction of the transgressors and of the sinners shall be together, and they that forsake the Lord shall be consumed.
29 For they shall be ashamed of the oaks which ye have desired, and ye shall be confounded for the gardens that ye have chosen.
30 For ye shall be as an oak whose leaf fadeth, and as a garden that hath no water.
31 And the strong shall be as tow, and the maker of it as a spark, and they shall both burn together, and none shall quench them.
Genesis 43 in Tamil and English
1 त्यस देशमा अनिकालको प्रकोप साह्रै थियो।
And the famine was sore in the land.
2 मानिसहरूले मिश्र देशबाट ल्याएको सबै अन्न खाइसके। जब अन्न सकियो, याकूबले आफ्ना छोराहरूलाई भने, “हामीले खानुको निम्ति अझ केही अन्न किन्न मिश्र देश जानु पर्छ।”
And it came to pass, when they had eaten up the corn which they had brought out of Egypt, their father said unto them, Go again, buy us a little food.
3 तर यहूदाले याकूबलाई भने, “तर त्यस देशको शासकले हामीलाई चेताउनी दिएकाछन्। उनले भने, ‘यदि तिमीहरूले आफ्नो भाइ मकहाँ लिएर आएनौ भने म तिमीहरूसित कुरा गर्ने छैन।’
And Judah spake unto him, saying, The man did solemnly protest unto us, saying, Ye shall not see my face, except your brother be with you.
4 यदि तपाईं बिन्यामीनलाई हामीसित पठउनु हुन्छ भने, मात्र हामीहरू अन्न किन्नु जान सक्छौ।
If thou wilt send our brother with us, we will go down and buy thee food:
5 तर यदि तपाईं उसलाई पठाउन अस्वीकार गर्नु भयो भने तब हामी जानेछैनौ। त्यस मानिसले बिना बिन्यामीन हामीलाई त्यहाँ जानु होशियारी गराएकाछन्।”
But if thou wilt not send him, we will not go down: for the man said unto us, Ye shall not see my face, except your brother be with you.
6 इस्राएलले भने, “उसलाई तिमीहरूले अर्को पनि भाइ छ भनी किन भन्यौ? तिमीहरूले मेरो निम्ति यस्तो नराम्रो काम किन गर्यौ?”
And Israel said, Wherefore dealt ye so ill with me, as to tell the man whether ye had yet a brother?
7 ती दाज्यू-भाइहरूले जवाफ दिए, “उनले हामी र हाम्रा कुटुम्बका विषय धेरै जान्न खोज्थ्यो र उनले हामीलाई थुप्रै प्रश्नहरू गर्यो। उनले हामीलाई सोध्यो, ‘के तिम्रा दाज्यू-भाइहरू अझ बाँचेका छन्? घरमा अझ कोही भाइहरू छन् छैनन्?’ हामीले खाली उसको प्रश्नहरूको उत्तर मात्र दियौं। हामीले जानेका थिएनौ उनले भाइ लिएर मात्र आइज भन्छ।”
And they said, The man asked us straitly of our state, and of our kindred, saying, Is your father yet alive? have ye another brother? and we told him according to the tenor of these words: could we certainly know that he would say, Bring your brother down?
8 त्यसपछि यूहदाले आफ्नो बाबु इस्राएललाई भने, “बिन्यामीन मसित जाओस्। म उसको हेरचाह गर्नेछु। हाम्रो निम्ति अन्न लिनु हामी मिश्र देश जानै पर्छ। यदि हामी गएनौं भनें हाम्रा नानीहरू हामीहरूसंगै मर्नेछन्।
And Judah said unto Israel his father, Send the lad with me, and we will arise and go; that we may live, and not die, both we, and thou, and also our little ones.
9 म तिमीलाई विश्वास दिलाउँछु हाम्रो भाइ सुरक्षित रहनेछ। यसको लागि म सम्पूर्ण दायित्व लिने छु। यदि मैले उसलाई फर्काउन सकिन भने तिमीले मलाई सँधैं दोष दिन सक्छौ।
I will be surety for him; of my hand shalt thou require him: if I bring him not unto thee, and set him before thee, then let me bear the blame for ever:
10 यदि तपाईं हामीलाई अघाडी नै जान दिएको भए, अहिलेसम्म दुइ चोटी अन्न लिएर आई सक्ने थियौं।”
For except we had lingered, surely now we had returned this second time.
11 त्यसपछि तिनीहरूका बाबु इस्राएलले भने, “यदि यो सही रूपमा नै साँचो हो भने, तब बिन्यामीनलाई तिमीहरूसँगै लिएर जाऊ। तर त्यस शासकको निम्ति केही उपहारहरू लैजाऊ। हामीले आफ्नो भूमिमा उब्जाएका चीजहरूबाट केही लिएर जाऊ। केही सुगन्धित मसला, अलिकती मह, अलिकता, सुगन्धित लेप, मूर्र, पेक्ता, र हाडे-बदाम लिएर जाऊ।
And their father Israel said unto them, If it must be so now, do this; take of the best fruits in the land in your vessels, and carry down the man a present, a little balm, and a little honey, spices, and myrrh, nuts, and almonds:
12 यसपाली तिमीहरूसँग भएको पैसा भन्दा पनि दुइ गुणा वेशी लिएर जाऊ। हुन सक्छ शासकले भूल गरे होलान, यसर्थ तिमीहरूलाई फर्काई दिएको पैसा पनि लिएर जाऊ।
And take double money in your hand; and the money that was brought again in the mouth of your sacks, carry it again in your hand; peradventure it was an oversight:
13 बिन्यामीनलाई त्यस मानिसकहाँ लिएर जाऊ।
Take also your brother, and arise, go again unto the man:
14 म प्रार्थना गर्छु जब तिमी त्यो प्रशासकअघि उभिन्छौ सर्वशक्तिमान परमेश्वरले सहायता गर्नु हुनेछ। म प्रार्थना गर्छु उनले बिन्यामीन र शिमोनलाई सुरक्षित फर्कन दिनेछन। यदि यस्तो भएन भने, म फेरि पुत्र शोकले व्याकुल हुनेछु।”
And God Almighty give you mercy before the man, that he may send away your other brother, and Benjamin. If I be bereaved of my children, I am bereaved.
15 यसर्थ ती दाज्यू-भाइहरूले शासकलाई दिनको निम्ति उपहार लगे। तिनीहरूले पहिलो पाली लगेको भन्दा दोबर रकम पनि लिएर गए। यस पल्ट बिन्यामीन आफ्नो दाज्यूहरूसँग मिश्र देश गए।दाज्यू-भाइहरूलाई यूसुफको घरमा निम्त्याइयो
And the men took that present, and they took double money in their hand, and Benjamin; and rose up, and went down to Egypt, and stood before Joseph.
16 मिश्र देशमा यूसुफले तिनीहरूसँग बिन्यामीनलाई देखे। यूसुफले आफ्ना नोकरलाई भने, “ती मानिसहरूलाई मेरो घरमा लिएर जाऊ। एउटा पशु मार अनि पकाऊ, यिनीहरू आज दिउँसो मसित भोजन खानेछन्।”
And when Joseph saw Benjamin with them, he said to the ruler of his house, Bring these men home, and slay, and make ready; for these men shall dine with me at noon.
17 उसलाई जे भनिएको थियो नोकरले त्यही गर्यो। उनले ती मानिसहरूलाई यूसुफको घरमा ल्यायो।
And the man did as Joseph bade; and the man brought the men into Joseph’s house.
18 जब ती दाज्यू-भाइहरूलाई यूसुफको घरमा लगियो तिनीहरू डराए। तिनीहरूले भने, “अस्तिको पाली हाम्रो बोराहरूमा पैसा हालेर फर्काइएको थियो त्यसैकारण हामीलाई यहाँ ल्याइयो। त्यो तिनीहरूले हाम्रो विरू द्वमा अस्त्र बनाउने छन्। अनि तिनीहरू हाम्रो गधाहरू चोरेर लगी हामीलाई कमारा बनाउनेछन्।”
And the men were afraid, because they were brought into Joseph’s house; and they said, Because of the money that was returned in our sacks at the first time are we brought in; that he may seek occasion against us, and fall upon us, and take us for bondmen, and our asses.
19 यसर्थ ती दाज्यू-भाइहरू यूसुफको घरको नोकरहरूको मुखियाकहाँ गए।
And they came near to the steward of Joseph’s house, and they communed with him at the door of the house,
20 तिनीहरूले भने, “महाशय, म प्रतिज्ञा गर्छु यो सत्य हो, अस्तिको पाली हामी अन्न किन्न आयौं।
And said, O sir, we came indeed down at the first time to buy food:
21 तर जब हामीहरूले रात बिताउनु पर्ने ठाउँमा आई पुग्यौं, हामीले आफ्नो बोरा खोल्यौं तब बोराको मुखमा नै हामीहरूले तिरेको पुरै रकम पायौं। अहिले हामीले यहाँ ल्याएका छौं।
And it came to pass, when we came to the inn, that we opened our sacks, and, behold, every man’s money was in the mouth of his sack, our money in full weight: and we have brought it again in our hand.
22 अनि अहिले फेरि पनि अन्न किन्नको निम्ति अरू रकम ल्याएका छौं। हामी जान्दैनौ कसले त्यो रकम हाम्रो बोरामा राख्यो।”
And other money have we brought down in our hands to buy food: we cannot tell who put our money in our sacks.
23 तब नोकरले उत्तर दियो, “तिमीहरू शान्तिसित बस। नडराऊ। तिमीहरूका परमेश्वर, तिमीहरूको बाबुका परमेश्वरले नै तिमीहरूको निम्ति बोरामा धन राखिदिएको हुनसक्छ। तिमीहरूले तिरेको रकम मैले पाएकै हुँ।”त्यसपछि त्यस नोकरले तिनीहरू भएको ठाउँमा शिमोनलाई ल्यायो।
And he said, Peace be to you, fear not: your God, and the God of your father, hath given you treasure in your sacks: I had your money. And he brought Simeon out unto them.
24 तब उनले तिनीहरूलाई यूसुफको घरमा ल्याए अनि पानी दिए। तिनीहरूले तिनको खुट्टा धोए। उसले तिनीहरूको गधाहरूलाई पनी खुवायो।
And the man brought the men into Joseph’s house, and gave them water, and they washed their feet; and he gave their asses provender.
25 यूसुफले पनि मध्य दिनको भोजन तिनीहरूसित खानेछन् भनी सुनेकोले त्यसपछि तिनीहरूले यूसुफलाई दिइने उपहार तयार राखे।
And they made ready the present against Joseph came at noon: for they heard that they should eat bread there.
26 यूसुफ घरमा आए अनि दाज्यू-भाइहरूले तिनीहरूसित ल्याएको उपहारहरू तिनलाई दिए। त्यसपछि तिनीहरू तिनको अगाडी भूइँमा निहुरिए।
And when Joseph came home, they brought him the present which was in their hand into the house, and bowed themselves to him to the earth.
27 यूसुफले तिनीहरूलाई आफ्नो भलोकुशल सोधपूछ गरे। यूसुफले भने, “तिमीहरूले आफ्नो बूढो बाबुको बारेमा बताएका थियौ, तिनी अझै जीवित अनि स्वस्थ हुनुहुन्छ?”
And he asked them of their welfare, and said, Is your father well, the old man of whom ye spake? Is he yet alive?
28 ती दाज्यू-भाइहरूले जवाफ दिए, “ज्यु हजुर, उहाँ जीवित हुनु हुन्छ।” अनि तिनीहरू फेरि यूसुफअघि निहुरिए।
And they answered, Thy servant our father is in good health, he is yet alive. And they bowed down their heads, and made obeisance.
29 त्यसपछि यूसुफले आफ्नो भाइ बिन्यामीनलाई देखे। (बिन्यामीन र यूसुफकी एउटै आमा हुन्) यूसुफले भने, तिमीहरूले मलाई बताएको कान्छो भाइ यही हो?” त्यसपछि यूसुफले बिन्यामीनलाई भने, “हे बाबू, परमेश्वरले तिमीलाई आशीर्वाद दिनु हुनेछ।”
And he lifted up his eyes, and saw his brother Benjamin, his mother’s son, and said, Is this your younger brother, of whom ye spake unto me? And he said, God be gracious unto thee, my son.
30 तब यूसुफ हतारिएर कोठा छोडे किनभने तिनी आफ्ना दाज्यू-भाइहरूको मनोभावले व्याकुल भएका थिए अनि रून चाहन्थे। तिनी आफ्नो कोठाभित्र पसे अनि रोए।
And Joseph made haste; for his bowels did yearn upon his brother: and he sought where to weep; and he entered into his chamber, and wept there.
31 त्यसपछि यूसुफ मुख धोएर बाहिर आए। तिनले आफौंलाई वशमा राखेर भने, “अहिले भोजन गर्ने समय हो।”
And he washed his face, and went out, and refrained himself, and said, Set on bread.
32 यूसुफले एक्लै एउटा टेबलमासँगै भोजन खाए। उनका भाइहरूले अर्को एउटा टेबलमा भोजन खाए। मिश्र देशबासीहरूले अर्को टेबलमा सँगै भोजन खाए। तिनीहरूको विश्वास थियो हिब्रू मानिसहरूसँगै बसेर खानु राम्रो होइन।
And they set on for him by himself, and for them by themselves, and for the Egyptians, which did eat with him, by themselves: because the Egyptians might not eat bread with the Hebrews; for that is an abomination unto the Egyptians.
33 यूसुफका दाज्यूभाइहरू तिनकै टेबल अघि बसेका थिए। तिनीहरू जेठादेखि कान्छासम्म उमेर अनुसार लहरै बसेका थिए। के भइरहेको छ सबै दाज्यूभाइहरूले एका-अर्कामा आश्चर्यमानी हेरिरहेका थिए।
And they sat before him, the firstborn according to his birthright, and the youngest according to his youth: and the men marvelled one at another.
34 नोकरहरूले यूसुफको टेबलबाट भोजन ल्याएर तिनीहरूलाई दिन्थे। तर ती नोकरहरूले बिन्यामीनलाई अरू दाज्यूभाइहरूलाई भन्दा पाँच गुणा वेशी दिन्थे। ती दाज्यूभाइहरू नअघाउञ्जेलसम्म यूसुफसँगै खाए।
And he took and sent messes unto them from before him: but Benjamin’s mess was five times so much as any of theirs. And they drank, and were merry with him.
