1 Kings 22
1 They continued three years without war between Syria and Israel.
अराम र इस्राएलको बिचमा युद्ध नभई तिन वर्ष बित्यो ।
2 In the third year, Jehoshaphat the king of Judah came down to the king of Israel.
तेस्रो वर्षमा यहूदाका राजा यहोशापात इस्राएलका राजाकहाँ गए ।
3 The king of Israel said to his servants, “You know that Ramoth Gilead is ours, and we do nothing, and do not take it out of the hand of the king of Syria?”
इस्राएलका राजाले आफ्ना अधिकारीहरूलाई भनेका थिए, “के रामोत-गिलाद हाम्रै हो भनी तिमीहरूलाई थाहा छ? तर अरामका राजाका हातबाट यसलाई लिन हामीले केही पनि गरिरहेका छैनौँ ।”
4 He said to Jehoshaphat, “Will you go with me to battle to Ramoth Gilead?” Jehoshaphat said to the king of Israel, “I am as you are, my people as your people, my horses as your horses.”
त्यसैले तिनले यहोशापातलाई भने, “के तपाईं युद्ध गर्नलाई मसितै रामोत-गिलादमा जानुहुन्छ?” यहोशापातले इस्राएलका राजालाई जवाफ दिए, “म तपाईंजस्तै हुँ, मेरा मानिस तपाईंका मानिसजस्तै हुन् र मेरा घोडाहरू तपाईंका घोडाहरू जस्तै हुन् ।”
5 Jehoshaphat said to the king of Israel, “Please inquire first for the LORD’s word.”
यहोशापातले इस्राएलका राजालाई भने, “पहिले तपाईंले के गर्नुपर्छ भन्नाका लागि परमप्रभुको वचनबाट निर्देशन खोज्नुहोस् ।”
6 Then the king of Israel gathered the prophets together, about four hundred men, and said to them, “Should I go against Ramoth Gilead to battle, or should I refrain?” They said, “Go up; for the Lord will deliver it into the hand of the king.”
तब इस्राएलका राजाले चार सय अगमवक्तालाई जम्मा गरी तिनीहरूलाई भने, “म रामोत-गिलादमा युद्ध गर्न जाऊँ कि नजाऊँ? तिनीहरूले जवाफ दिए, “आक्रमण गर्नुहोस्, किनकि परमप्रभुले यो राजाका हातमा सुम्पिदिनुहुने छ ।”
7 But Jehoshaphat said, “Is not there here a prophet of the LORD, that we may inquire of him?”
तर यहोशापातले भने, “के यहाँ परमप्रभुका अर्का कुनै अगमवक्ता छैनन् जसबाट हामीले सल्लाह लिन सक्छौँ?”
8 The king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, “There is yet one man by whom we may inquire of the LORD, Micaiah the son of Imlah; but I hate him, for he does not prophesy good concerning me, but evil.” Jehoshaphat said, “Do not let the king say so.”
इस्राएलका राजाले यहोशापातलाई भने, “एक जना मानिस छन् जसबाट हामीले मदतको लागि परमप्रभुबाट सल्लाह लिन सक्छौँ । तिनी यिम्लाका छोरा मीकाया हुन्, तर म तिनलाई घृणा गर्छु किनकि तिनले मेरो बारेमा कुनै असल कुरोको भविष्यवाणी गर्दैनन्, केवल खरावी मात्र बोल्छन् ।” तर यहोशापातले भने, “राजाले यस्तो भन्नुहुँदैन ।”
9 Then the king of Israel called an officer, and said, “Quickly get Micaiah the son of Imlah.”
तब इस्राएलका राजाले एक जना अधिकारीलाई बोलाई तिनलाई हुकुम गरे, “ठिक अहिले नै इम्लाका छोरा मीकायालाई ल्याउनू ।”
10 Now the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah were sitting each on his throne, arrayed in their robes, in an open place at the entrance of the gate of Samaria; and all the prophets were prophesying before them.
इस्राएलका राजा आहाब र यहूदाका राजा यहोशापात राजकीय पोशाक पहिरेर सामरियाको मूल ढोकाको खुला ठाउँमा आ-आफ्नो सिंहासनमा बसिरहेका थिए, र सबै अगमवक्ताले तिनीहरूका सामु अगमवाणी बोल्दै थिए ।
11 Zedekiah the son of Chenaanah made himself horns of iron, and said, “The LORD says, ‘With these you will push the Syrians, until they are consumed.’”
केनानका छोरा सिदकियाहले चाहिँ फलामका सिङहरू बनाएका थिए । तिनले भने, “परमप्रभु यसो भन्नुहुन्छ, 'अरामीहरू नष्ट नभएसम्म तिमीहरूले तिनीहरूलाई यसैले दण्ड दिनू' ।”
12 All the prophets prophesied so, saying, “Go up to Ramoth Gilead and prosper; for the LORD will deliver it into the hand of the king.”
तब सबै अगमवक्ताले यसो भनी अगमवाणी बोले, “रामोत-गिलादमाथि आक्रमण गरी विजयी हुनुहोस् किनकि परमप्रभुले यो राजाको हातमा सुम्पिदिनुभएको छ ।”
13 The messenger who went to call Micaiah spoke to him, saying, “See now, the prophets declare good to the king with one mouth. Please let your word be like the word of one of them, and speak good.”
मीकायालाई बोलाउन गएका सन्देशवाहकले तिनलाई भने, “अब हेर्नुहोस्, अगमवक्ताहरूका वचनहरूले एउटै मुखले राजालाई असल कुरा भन्छन् । तपाईंको वचन तिनीहरूको जस्तै होस् र असल कुराहरू भन्नुहोस् ।”
14 Micaiah said, “As the LORD lives, what the LORD says to me, that I will speak.”
मीकायले जवाफ दिए, “परमप्रभुको नाउँमा शपथ खाएर म भन्दछु, कि परमप्रभुले मलाई जे भन्नुहुन्छ, म त्यही भन्ने छु ।”
15 When he had come to the king, the king said to him, “Micaiah, shall we go to Ramoth Gilead to battle, or shall we forbear?” He answered him, “Go up and prosper; and the LORD will deliver it into the hand of the king.”
जब तिनी राजाकहाँ आए राजाले तिनलाई भने, “मीकाया, हामी युद्धको लागि रामोत-गिलादमा जाऊँ कि नजाऊँ?” मीकायाले तिनलाई जवाफ दिए, “आक्रमण गर्नुहोस् र विजयी हुनुहोस् । परमप्रभुले यो तपाईंको हातमा सुम्पिदिनुहुने छ ।”
16 The king said to him, “How many times do I have to adjure you that you speak to me nothing but the truth in the LORD’s name?”
तब राजाले तिनलाई भने, “परमप्रभुको नाउँमा अरू कुरा नभनी साँचो कुरा मात्र भन्नू भनी म तिमीलाई कति पटक शपथ खान लगाऊँ?”
17 He said, “I saw all Israel scattered on the mountains, as sheep that have no shepherd. The LORD said, ‘These have no master. Let them each return to his house in peace.’”
तब मीकायाले भने, “मैले गोठाला नभएका भेडाझैँ सारा इस्राएल पहाडहरूतिर तितर-बितर भएको देखेँ, र परमप्रभुले भन्नुभयो, 'तिनीहरूसित कुनै गोठालो छैन । हरेक मानिस शान्तिसित आफ्नै घरमा फर्कोस्' ।”
18 The king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, “Did not I tell you that he would not prophesy good concerning me, but evil?”
त्यसैले इस्राएलका राजाले यहोशापातलाई भने, “तिनले मेरो बारेमा असल कुरा नभई केवल विपत्तिको बारेमा अगमवाणी बोल्छन् भनी के मैले तपाईंलाई भनेको होइन र?”
19 Micaiah said, “Therefore hear the LORD’s word. I saw the LORD sitting on his throne, and all the army of heaven standing by him on his right hand and on his left.
तब मीकायाले भने, “त्यसकारण परमप्रभुको वचन सुन्नुहोस्: मैले परमप्रभुलाई उहाँको सिंहासनमा विराजमान हुनुभएको अनि उहाँको दाहिने र देब्रे हातपट्टि उहाँनेर सबै स्वर्गीय सेना उभिरहेका देखेँ ।
20 The LORD said, ‘Who will entice Ahab, that he may go up and fall at Ramoth Gilead?’ One said one thing, and another said another.
परमप्रभुले भन्नुभयो, 'आहाब रामोत-गिलादमा उक्लेर गई त्यहाँ त्यसको पतन होस् भन्नाका लागि त्यसलाई कसले बहकाउने छ?’ एउटाले एउटा कुरा भन्यो र अर्कोचाहिँले अर्कै कुरा भन्यो ।
21 A spirit came out and stood before the LORD, and said, ‘I will entice him.’
तब एउटा आत्मा अगाडि बढी त्यो परमप्रभुको सामु उभियो । त्यसले भन्यो, 'म तिनलाई उक्साउने छु ।' परमप्रभुले त्यसलाई भन्नुभयो, 'कसरी?’
22 The LORD said to him, ‘How?’ He said, ‘I will go out and will be a lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets.’ He said, ‘You will entice him, and will also prevail. Go out and do so.’
आत्माले जवाफ दियो, 'म बाहिर जाने छु, र तिनका सबै अगमवक्ताका मुखमा झुट बोल्ने आत्मा बन्ने छु ।' परमप्रभुले भन्नुभयो, 'तैँल त्यसलाई बहकाउने छस्, र तँ सफल पनि हुने छस् । अब जा र त्यसै गर् ।'
23 Now therefore, behold, the LORD has put a lying spirit in the mouth of all these your prophets; and the LORD has spoken evil concerning you.”
त्यसैले अब हेर्नुहोस्, परमप्रभुले तपाईंका यी सबै अगमवक्ताका मुखमा झुट बोल्ने आत्मा हालिदिनुभएको छ, र परमप्रभुले तपाईंको लागि विपत्तिको घोषणा गर्नुभएको छ ।”
24 Then Zedekiah the son of Chenaanah came near and struck Micaiah on the cheek, and said, “Which way did the LORD’s Spirit go from me to speak to you?”
तब केनानका छोरा सिदकियाह माथि उक्लेर आई मीकायाको गालामा थप्पड हानेर भने, “तिमीसित बोल्न परमप्रभुका आत्मा मबाट कुनचाहिँ बाटो भएर जानुभयो त?”
25 Micaiah said, “Behold, you will see on that day when you go into an inner room to hide yourself.”
मीकायाले भने, “हेर, तिमी भित्र कोठामा लुक्न जाँदा त्यस दिन तिमी आफैले देख्ने छौ ।”
26 The king of Israel said, “Take Micaiah, and carry him back to Amon the governor of the city and to Joash the king’s son.
इस्राएलका राजाले आफ्ना अधिकारीलाई हुकुम दिए, “मीकायालाई समात्, अनि त्यसलाई सहरका शासक र मेरो छोरा योआशकहाँ लैजा ।”
27 Say, ‘The king says, “Put this fellow in the prison, and feed him with bread of affliction and with water of affliction, until I come in peace.”’”
त्यसलाई भन्, ‘राजा भन्नुहुन्छः यो मानिसलाई झ्यालखानामा हाल्, र म सुरक्षितसाथ नफर्केसम्म त्यसलाई थोरै रोटी र थोरै पानी मात्र खुवाउनू' ।”
28 Micaiah said, “If you return at all in peace, the LORD has not spoken by me.” He said, “Listen, all you people!”
तब मीकायाले भने, “तपाईं सुरक्षितसाथ आउनुभयो भने परमप्रभुले मद्वारा बोल्नुभएको होइन ।” तब तिनले थपे, “हे सारा मानिस हो, यो कुरा सुन ।”
29 So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah went up to Ramoth Gilead.
त्यसैले इस्राएलका राजा आहाब र यहूदाका राजा यहोशापात रामोत-गिलादमा गए ।
30 The king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, “I will disguise myself and go into the battle, but you put on your robes.” The king of Israel disguised himself and went into the battle.
इस्राएलका राजाले यहोशापातलाई भने, “म भेष बद्लेर युद्धमा जाने छु, तर तपाईंले आफ्नो राजकीय पोशाक पहिरिनुहोस् ।” त्यसैले इस्राएलका राजाले भेष बद्ले, र तिनी युद्धमा गए ।
31 Now the king of Syria had commanded the thirty-two captains of his chariots, saying, “Do not fight with small nor great, except only with the king of Israel.”
अरामका राजाले आफ्ना रथहरूका बत्तिस जना सेनापतिलाई यसो भनी आज्ञा दिएका थिए, “साना-ठुला जोसुकैलाई आक्रमण नगर्नू । बरु, इस्राएलका राजालाई मात्र आक्रमण गर्नू ।”
32 When the captains of the chariots saw Jehoshaphat, they said, “Surely that is the king of Israel!” and they came over to fight against him. Jehoshaphat cried out.
जब रथहरूका सेनापतिहरूले यहोशापातलाई देखे तिनीहरूले भने, “निश्चय नै यिनी इस्राएलका राजा हुन् ।” तिनलाई आक्रमण गर्न तिनीहरू फर्कंदा यहोशापात चिच्च्याए ।
33 When the captains of the chariots saw that it was not the king of Israel, they turned back from pursuing him.
तिनी इस्राएलका राजा होइनन् रहेछ भनी जब रथहरूका सेनापतिहरूले देखे तिनीहरू तिनको पिछा गर्नबाट फर्के ।
34 A certain man drew his bow at random, and struck the king of Israel between the joints of the armor. Therefore he said to the driver of his chariot, “Turn around, and carry me out of the battle, for I am severely wounded.”
तर एक जना सेनापतिले जथाभावी काँड हाने, र त्यस काँडले इस्राएलका राजाको कवचको जोर्नीमा लाग्यो । तब आहाबले आफ्नो सारथीलाई भने, “फर्की, र मलाई युद्धबाट बाहिर लैजा, किनकि मलाई बेसरी चोट लागेको छ ।”
35 The battle increased that day. The king was propped up in his chariot facing the Syrians, and died at evening. The blood ran out of the wound into the bottom of the chariot.
त्यस दिन युद्ध झन् चर्कंदै गयो, र आफ्ना रथमा अडिएर राजाले अरामीहरूको सामना गरिरहे । साँझमा तिनी मरे । तिनको घाउबाट निस्केको रगतचाहिँ रथभित्रै बगिरहेको थियो ।
36 A cry went throughout the army about the going down of the sun, saying, “Every man to his city, and every man to his country!”
तब सूर्य अस्ताउँदै गर्दा सेनाका बिचमा एउटा यस्तो आवाज फैलियो, “हरेक मानिस आ-आफ्नो सहरमा फर्केर जाओस्, र हरेक मानिस आ-आफ्नो बस्तीमा फर्केर जाओस् ।”
37 So the king died, and was brought to Samaria; and they buried the king in Samaria.
यसरी राजा आहाब मरे, र तिनलाई सामरियामा लगी त्यहीँ नै गाडियो ।
38 They washed the chariot by the pool of Samaria; and the dogs licked up his blood where the prostitutes washed themselves, according to the LORD’s word which he spoke.
तिनीहरूले रथलाई सामरियाको तलाउमा धोए, र परमप्रभुको वचनले घोषणा गरेझैँ कुकुरहरूले तिनको रगत चाटे (यहीँ नै वेश्याहरू नुहाउने गर्थे) ।
39 Now the rest of the acts of Ahab, and all that he did, and the ivory house which he built, and all the cities that he built, are not they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
के आहाबले गरेका अरू कार्यहरू, तिनले बनाएको हस्ती-हाडको महलसाथै सबै सहरहरूको विषयमा इस्राएलका राजाहरूको इतिहासको पुस्तकमा लेखिएका छैनन् र?
40 So Ahab slept with his fathers; and Ahaziah his son reigned in his place.
यसरी आहाब आफ्ना पित्रहरूसित सुते, र तिनको ठाउँमा तिनका छोरा अहज्याह राजा भए ।
41 Jehoshaphat the son of Asa began to reign over Judah in the fourth year of Ahab king of Israel.
इस्राएलका राजा आहाबको चौथो वर्षमा आसाका छोरा यहोशापातले यहूदामाथि शासन गर्न थाले ।
42 Jehoshaphat was thirty-five years old when he began to reign; and he reigned twenty-five years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Azubah the daughter of Shilhi.
यहोशापातले शासन गर्न थाल्दा तिनी पैँतिस वर्षका थिए, र तिनले यरूशलेममा पच्चिस वर्ष राज्य गरे । तिनकी आमाको नाउँ अजूबा थियो, जो शिल्हीकी छोरी थिइन् ।
43 He walked in all the way of Asa his father. He did not turn away from it, doing that which was right in the LORD’s eyes. However, the high places were not taken away. The people still sacrificed and burned incense on the high places.
तिनी आफ्ना पिता आसाका मार्गमा हिँडे । तिनी तीबाट फर्केनन् । तिनले परमप्रभुको दृष्टिमा जे ठिक छ, त्यही गरे । तथापि डाँडाका थानहरू भने हटाइएनन् । मानिसहरूले डाँडाका थानहरूमा अझै पनि बलिदान चढाउँदै थिए, र धूप बाल्दै थिए ।
44 Jehoshaphat made peace with the king of Israel.
यहोशापात इस्राएलका राजासित शान्तिमा रहे ।
45 Now the rest of the acts of Jehoshaphat, and his might that he showed, and how he fought, are not they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
के यहोशापातका अरू कार्यहरू, तिनले देखाएका शक्ति र कसरी तिनले युद्ध लडे भन्ने विषयमा यहूदाका राजाहरूको इतिहासको पुस्तकमा लेखिएका छैनन् र?
46 The remnant of the sodomites, that remained in the days of his father Asa, he put away out of the land.
तिनका पिता आसाको समयसम्म बाँकी रहेका झुटो धर्मसम्बन्धी वेश्याहरूलाई तिनले देशबाट हटाए ।
47 There was no king in Edom. A deputy ruled.
एदोममा कुनै राजा थिएन, तर त्यहाँ सहायकले शासन गर्थ्यो ।
48 Jehoshaphat made ships of Tarshish to go to Ophir for gold, but they did not go, for the ships wrecked at Ezion Geber.
यहोशापातले समुद्रमा आवात-जावत गर्ने जहाजहरू बनाए । ती सुनको लागि ओपीरमा जानुपर्थ्यो, तर एस्योन-गेबेरमा ध्वंश भएको कारण ती जान सकेनन् ।
49 Then Ahaziah the son of Ahab said to Jehoshaphat, “Let my servants go with your servants in the ships.” But Jehoshaphat would not.
तब आहाबका छोरा अहज्याहले यहोशापातलाई भने, “यी जहाजहरूमा मेरा अधिकारीहरूलाई तपाईंका अधिकारीहरूसँगै जान दिनुहोस् ।” तर यहोशापातले अनुमति दिएनन् ।
50 Jehoshaphat slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in his father David’s city. Jehoram his son reigned in his place.
यहोशापात आफ्ना पित्रहरूसित सुते, र तिनीहरूसितै आफ्ना पुर्खा दाऊदको सहरमा गाडिए । तिनको ठाउँमा तिनका छोरा यहोराम राजा भए ।
51 Ahaziah the son of Ahab began to reign over Israel in Samaria in the seventeenth year of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, and he reigned two years over Israel.
यहूदाका राजा यहोशापातको सत्रौँ वर्षमा आहाबका छोरा अहज्याहले सामरियामा बसेर इस्राएलमाथि शासन गर्न थाले, र तिनले इस्राएलमाथि दुई वर्ष राज्य गरे ।
52 He did that which was evil in the LORD’s sight, and walked in the way of his father, and in the way of his mother, and in the way of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, in which he made Israel to sin.
तिनले परमप्रभुको दृष्टिमा जे खराब छ, त्यही गरे, र तिनका बुबाआमाको चालमा हिँडे अनि इस्राएललाई पाप गर्न लगाउने नबातका छोरा यारोबामको मार्गमा हिँडे ।
53 He served Baal and worshiped him, and provoked the LORD, the God of Israel, to anger in all the ways that his father had done so.
तिनले आफ्ना पिताले गरेझैँ बालको सेवा गरे, त्यसको पुजा गरे अनि इस्राएलका परमेश्वर परमप्रभुलाई रिस उठाए ।
