Exodus 32
1 When the people saw that Moses delayed coming down from the mountain, the people gathered themselves together to Aaron, and said to him, “Come, make us gods, which shall go before us; for as for this Moses, the man who brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we don’t know what has become of him.”
जब मानिसहरूले मोशा पर्वतबाट आउन ढिलाइ गरेको देखे तिनीहरू हारूनको वरिपरि भेला भई तिनलाई भने, “हाम्रो अगिअगि जाने एउटा मूर्ति बनाऔँ । हामीलाई मिश्र देशबाट बाहिर ल्याउने मोशालाई के भयो हामी जान्दैनौँ ।”
2 Aaron said to them, “Take off the golden rings, which are in the ears of your wives, of your sons, and of your daughters, and bring them to me.”
त्यसैले हारूनले तिनीहरूलाई भने, “तिमीहरूका पत्नीहरू र छोराछोरीहरूका कानमा भएका सुनका कुण्डलहरू फुकाली मकहाँ लेओ ।”
3 All the people took off the golden rings which were in their ears, and brought them to Aaron.
सबै मानिसले तिनीहरूका कानमा लगाएका कुण्डलहरू फुकाली हारूनकहाँ ल्याए ।
4 He received what they handed him, fashioned it with an engraving tool, and made it a moulded calf. Then they said, “These are your gods, Israel, which brought you up out of the land of Egypt.”
तिनले तिनीहरूबाट पाएको सुनलाई हतियारले खोपेर बाछाको एउटा मूर्ति बनाए । तब मानिसहरूले भने, “हे इस्राएल हो, मिश्रबाट तिमीहरूलाई बाहिर निकालेर ल्याउने देव यिनै हुन् ।”
5 When Aaron saw this, he built an altar before it; and Aaron made a proclamation, and said, “Tomorrow shall be a feast to the LORD.”
हारूनले यो देखेपछि तिनले बाछाको सामु एउटा वेदी बनाए र यस्तो घोषणा गरे, “भोलि परमप्रभुको आदरको लागि एउटा चाड हुनेछ ।”
6 They rose up early on the next day, and offered burnt offerings, and brought peace offerings; and the people sat down to eat and to drink, and rose up to play.
भोलिपल्ट मानिसहरू सबेरै उठे र तिनीहरूले होमबलि र मेलबलि चढाए । तब तिनीहरू खान र पिउनलाई बसे अनि मोजमा डुब्न लागे ।
7 The LORD spoke to Moses, “Go, get down; for your people, whom you brought up out of the land of Egypt, have corrupted themselves!
तब परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्नुभयो, “चाँडै तल ओर्ली, किनकि तैँले मिश्र देशबाट बाहिर ल्याएका मानिसहरूले आफैलाई भ्रष्ट पारिसकेका छन् ।
8 They have turned away quickly out of the way which I commanded them. They have made themselves a moulded calf, and have worshipped it, and have sacrificed to it, and said, ‘These are your gods, Israel, which brought you up out of the land of Egypt.’”
मैले आज्ञा गरेको मार्गबाट तिनीहरू चाँडै नै विचलित भएका छन् । तिनीहरूले आफ्ना लागि गाईको मूर्ति बनाएर यसको पूजा गरेका छन् र बलिदान चढाएका छन् । तिनीहरूले भनेका छन् 'हे इस्राएल हो, मिश्र देशबाट तिमीहरूलाई बाहिर ल्याउने देव यिनै हुन्' ।”
9 The LORD said to Moses, “I have seen these people, and behold, they are a stiff-necked people.
तब परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्नुभयो, “मैले यो जातिलाई देखेको छु । हेर्, तिनीहरू हठी मानिसहरू हुन् ।
10 Now therefore leave me alone, that my wrath may burn hot against them, and that I may consume them; and I will make of you a great nation.”
अब मलाई रोक्ने कोसिस नगर् । मेरो क्रोध तिनीहरूको विरुद्धमा दन्कनेछ । त्यसैले म तिनीहरूलाई नष्ट गर्नेछु । तब म तँबाट नै एउटा ठुलो जाति बनाउनेछु ।”
11 Moses begged the LORD his God, and said, “LORD, why does your wrath burn hot against your people, that you have brought out of the land of Egypt with great power and with a mighty hand?
तर मोशाले परमप्रभु तिनका परमेश्वरलाई शान्त पार्न खोजे । तिनले भने, “हे परमप्रभु, आफ्नो ठुलो सामर्थ्य र शक्तिशाली हातले मिश्र देशबाट तपाईंले बाहिर ल्याउनुभएका यी मानिसहरूको विरुद्ध तपाईंको क्रोध किन दन्किने?
12 Why should the Egyptians talk, saying, ‘He brought them out for evil, to kill them in the mountains, and to consume them from the surface of the earth’? Turn from your fierce wrath, and turn away from this evil against your people.
मिश्रीहरूले किन यसो भन्ने, 'तिनीहरूलाई पर्वतमा लगेर मार्न र पृथ्वीको सतहबाट नष्ट गर्न उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई दुष्ट मनसाय लिएर बाहिर निकाल्नुभयो?' आफ्नो क्रोधलाई शान्त पार्नुहोस् र यो जातिलाई दण्ड दिनबाट मन बद्लनुहोस् ।
13 Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, your servants, to whom you swore by your own self, and said to them, ‘I will multiply your offspring as the stars of the sky, and all this land that I have spoken of I will give to your offspring, and they shall inherit it forever.’”
तपाईंका दासहरू अब्राहाम, इसहाक र इस्राएललाई सम्झनुहोस् जसलाई तपाईंले आफ्नै खातिर यसो भनेर शपथ खानुभएको थियो, 'म तिमीहरूका सन्तानहरूलाई आकाशको ताराजत्तिकै बढाउनेछु र मैले तिमीहरूका सन्तानहरूलाई दिने भनेका यी सबै देश दिनेछु । तिनीहरूले सदाको लागि यसको अधिकार गर्नेछन्' ।”
14 So the LORD turned away from the evil which he said he would do to his people.
तब आफ्नो जातिलाई हानि गर्नदेखि परमप्रभुले आफ्नो मन बद्लनुभयो ।
15 Moses turned, and went down from the mountain, with the two tablets of the covenant in his hand; tablets that were written on both their sides. They were written on one side and on the other.
तब मोशा फर्केर आफ्ना हातमा करारका दुईवटा शिला-पाटी लिएर पर्वतबाट तल ओर्ले । शिला-पाटीहरूका अगाडि र पछाडि दुवैपट्टि लेखिएका थिए ।
16 The tablets were the work of God, and the writing was the writing of God, engraved on the tablets.
ती शिला-पाटीहरू परमेश्वरका आफ्नै काम थिए, र त्यो उहाँले नै खोपेर लेख्नुभएको थियो ।
17 When Joshua heard the noise of the people as they shouted, he said to Moses, “There is the noise of war in the camp.”
यहोशूले मानिसहरू चिच्च्याइरहेको आवाज सुनेपछि तिनले मोशालाई भने, “छाउनीमा त लडाइँको आवाज पो सुनिँदै छ त ।”
18 He said, “It isn’t the voice of those who shout for victory. It is not the voice of those who cry for being overcome; but the noise of those who sing that I hear.”
तर मोशाले भने, “यो विजेताको आवाज होइन, न त पराजितहरूको आवाज हो, तर म त गीत गाइरहेको आवाज सुन्दै छु ।”
19 As soon as he came near to the camp, he saw the calf and the dancing. Then Moses’ anger grew hot, and he threw the tablets out of his hands, and broke them beneath the mountain.
जब मोशा छाउनी नजिक आइपुगे तिनले बाछो र मानिसहरू नाचिरहेका देखे । तिनी बेसरी रिसाए । तिनले आफ्ना हातबाट ती शिला-पाटीहरू फालिदिए, पर्वतको फेदीमा नै फुटाइदिए ।
20 He took the calf which they had made, and burnt it with fire, ground it to powder, and scattered it on the water, and made the children of Israel drink it.
तिनले मानिसहरूले बनाएका त्यस बाछोलाई लिएर जलाइदिए अनि धुलोपिठो बनाएर पानीमा छरिदिए, अनि तिनले इस्राएलका मानिसहरूलाई त्यो पिउन लगाए ।
21 Moses said to Aaron, “What did these people do to you, that you have brought a great sin on them?”
तब मोशाले हारूनलाई भने, “यी मानिसहरूले तपाईंलाई के गरे जसले गर्दा तपाईंले तिनीहरूमाथि यति ठुलो पाप ल्याउनुभयो?”
22 Aaron said, “Don’t let the anger of my lord grow hot. You know the people, that they are set on evil.
हारूनले भने, “मेरा मालिक, ममाथि हजुरको क्रोध नदन्कियोस् । तपाईं त यी मानिसहरूलाई जान्नुहुन्छ कि तिनीहरू खराबी गर्न उद्यत छन् ।
23 For they said to me, ‘Make us gods, which shall go before us. As for this Moses, the man who brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we don’t know what has become of him.’
तिनीहरूले मलाई भने, 'हाम्रो अगिअगि जाने एउटा देव बनाऊ । हामीलाई मिश्र देशबाट बाहिर निकालेर ल्याउने मोशालाई के भयो हामी जान्दैनौँ ।'
24 I said to them, ‘Whoever has any gold, let them take it off.’ So they gave it to me; and I threw it into the fire, and out came this calf.”
तब मैले तिनीहरूलाई भनेँ, 'जो-जोसँग सुन छ, तिनीहरूले फुकालून् ।' तिनीहरूले मलाई सुन दिए र मैले त्यसलाई आगोमा फाल्दा यही बाछो बनेर आयो ।”
25 When Moses saw that the people were out of control, (for Aaron had let them lose control, causing derision amongst their enemies),
मानिसहरू छाडा भइसकेका थिए भनी मोशाले देखे (किनकि हारूनले तिनीहरूका शत्रुहरूका सामु हाँसोको पात्र हुन दिएर तिनीहरूलाई अनियन्त्रित हुन छाडिदिएका थिए) ।
26 then Moses stood in the gate of the camp, and said, “Whoever is on the LORD’s side, come to me!” All the sons of Levi gathered themselves together to him.
तब मोशा छाउनीको प्रवेशद्वारमा खडा भएर भने, “जो-जो परमप्रभुपट्टि छन्, तिनीहरू मकहाँ आओ ।” सबै लेवी तिनको वरिपरि भेला भए ।
27 He said to them, “The LORD, the God of Israel, says, ‘Every man put his sword on his thigh, and go back and forth from gate to gate throughout the camp, and every man kill his brother, and every man his companion, and every man his neighbour.’”
तिनले तिनीहरूलाई भने, “परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्वर यसो भन्नुहुन्छ, 'हरेकले आ-आफ्नो तरवार भिरेर छाउनीको एक छेउदेखि अर्को छेउसम्म ढोका-ढोकासम्म गएर हरेकले आफ्ना भाइ, आफ्ना मित्र र छिमेकीलाई मार' ।”
28 The sons of Levi did according to the word of Moses. About three thousand men fell of the people that day.
मोशाले आज्ञा गरेमुताबिक लेवीहरूले गरे । त्यस दिन करिब तिन हजार मानिस मरे ।
29 Moses said, “Consecrate yourselves today to the LORD, for every man was against his son and against his brother, that he may give you a blessing today.”
मोशाले लेवीहरूलाई भने, “आज तिमीहरू परमप्रभुको सेवामा राखिएका छौ किनकि आज परमप्रभुले तिमीहरूलाई आशिष् देऊन् भनेर तिमीहरू हरेकले आ-आफ्ना छोरा र भाइको विरुद्धमा कारबाही गरेका छौ ।”
30 On the next day, Moses said to the people, “You have sinned a great sin. Now I will go up to the LORD. Perhaps I shall make atonement for your sin.”
भोलिपल्ट मोशाले मानिसहरूलाई भने, “तिमीहरूले भयङ्कर ठुलो पाप गरेका छौ । अब म परमप्रभुकहाँ उक्लेर जानेछु । सायद मैले तिमीहरूको पापको लागि प्रायश्चित्त गर्न सक्छु कि ।”
31 Moses returned to the LORD, and said, “Oh, this people have sinned a great sin, and have made themselves gods of gold.
मोशा परमप्रभुकहाँ फर्केर आए र भने, “हाय! यी मानिसहरूले ठुलो पाप गरेका छन् र तिनीहरूले सुनको मूर्ति बनाएका छन् ।
32 Yet now, if you will, forgive their sin—and if not, please blot me out of your book which you have written.”
तर अब तिनीहरूका पाप क्षमा गरिदिनुहोस् । क्षमा गर्नुहुन्न भनेता तपाईंले लेख्नुभएको पुस्तकबाट मेरो नाउँ मेटिदिनुहोस् ।”
33 The LORD said to Moses, “Whoever has sinned against me, I will blot him out of my book.
परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्नुभयो, “जसले मेरो विरुद्धमा पाप गरेको छ, म मेरो पुस्तकबाट त्यसकै नाउँ मेटिदिनेछु ।
34 Now go, lead the people to the place of which I have spoken to you. Behold, my angel shall go before you. Nevertheless, in the day when I punish, I will punish them for their sin.”
अब, गएर मैले तँलाई भनेको स्थानमा यी मानिसहरूलाई अगुवाइ गरेर लैजा । हेर्, मेरा दूत तेरो अगिअगि जानेछन् । तर त्यस दिन तिनीहरूका पापका लागि म तिनीहरूलाई दण्ड दिनेछु ।”
35 The LORD struck the people, because of what they did with the calf, which Aaron made.
हारूनले बनाएको बाछोको कारण परमप्रभुले मानिसहरूमाथि विपत्ति ल्याउनुभयो ।
