< Joshua 11 >

1 And it came to pass, when Jabin king of Hazor heard thereof, that he sent to Jobab king of Madon, and to the king of Shimron, and to the king of Achshaph,
जब हासोरका राजा याबीनले यो सुने, उनले मादोनका राजा रोबाब, शिम्रोनका राजा र आक्षापका राजालाई समाचार पठाए ।
2 and to the kings that were on the north, in the hill-country, and in the Arabah south of Chinneroth, and in the lowland, and in the heights of Dor on the west,
उनले उत्तरी पहाडी देशमा, किन्‍नरेतको दक्षिणतिरको यर्दन बेँसीमा, तराईमा र पश्‍चिमतिरको नपोत डोरमा बस्‍ने राजाहरूलाई पनि समाचार पठाए ।
3 to the Canaanite on the east and on the west, and the Amorite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, and the Jebusite in the hill-country, and the Hivite under Hermon in the land of Mizpah.
उनले पूर्व र पश्‍चिमका कनानीहरू, एमोरीहरू, हित्तीहरू, परिज्‍जीहरू, पहाडी देशका यबूसीहरू मिस्पाको मैदान नजिकका हेर्मोन डाँडा छेउछाउका हिव्वीहरूलाई पनि समाचार पठाए ।
4 And they went out, they and all their hosts with them, much people, even as the sand that is upon the sea-shore in multitude, with horses and chariots very many.
उनीहरूका सबै फौज उनीहरूसँगै समुद्र किनारको बालुवाका कण जत्तिकै ठुलो सङ्ख्यामा आए । उनीहरूसँग कैयौँ घोडा र रथहरू थिए ।
5 And all these kings met together; and they came and encamped together at the waters of Merom, to fight with Israel.
यी सबै राजा तोकिएको समयमा भेटे र उनीहरू इस्राएलविरुद्ध लड्नलाई मेरोमको पानी नजिकै छाउनी हाले ।
6 And Jehovah said unto Joshua, Be not afraid because of them; for to-morrow at this time will I deliver them up all slain before Israel: thou shalt hock their horses, and burn their chariots with fire.
परमप्रभुले यहोशूलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “उनीहरूको उपस्थितिमा नडरा किनभने म भोली यसै समयमा उनीहरू सबैलाई इस्राएलको हातमा मृत मानिसहरूको रूपमा दिँदै छु । तैँले उनीहरूका घोडाहरूको ढोड नसा काटिदिनू र उनीहरूका रथहरू जलाइदिनू ।”
7 So Joshua came, and all the people of war with him, against them by the waters of Merom suddenly, and fell upon them.
यहोशू र सबै योद्धा आए । तिनीहरू मेरोमको पानीमा अचानक आए र शत्रुहरूलाई आक्रमण गरे ।
8 And Jehovah delivered them into the hand of Israel, and they smote them, and chased them unto great Sidon, and unto Misrephoth-maim, and unto the valley of Mizpeh eastward; and they smote them, until they left them none remaining.
परमप्रभुले शत्रुहरूलाई इस्राएलको हातमा दिनुभयो र तिनीहरूले उनीहरूलाई प्रहार गरे अनि उनीहरूलाई सीदोनसम्म, मिस्रपोत-मैमसम्मै र पूर्वतिर मिस्पाको बेँसीसम्म खेदे । तिनीहरूले उनीहरूमा कोही पनि जीवित नरहेसम्म नै उनीहरूलाई प्रहार गरे ।
9 And Joshua did unto them as Jehovah bade him: he hocked their horses, and burnt their chariots with fire.
यहोशूले उनीहरूलाई परमप्रभुले भन्‍नुभएमुताबिक गरे । तिनले घोडाहरूका ढोड नसाहरू काटे र रथहरू जलाए ।
10 And Joshua turned back at that time, and took Hazor, and smote the king thereof with the sword: for Hazor beforetime was the head of all those kingdoms.
त्यस बेला यहोशू फर्के र हासोस कब्जा गरे । तिनले यसका राजालाई तरवारले प्रहार गरे । (हासोर यी सबै राज्यका शिर थियो ।)
11 And they smote all the souls that were therein with the edge of the sword, utterly destroying them; there was none left that breathed: and he burnt Hazor with fire.
तिनीहरूले त्यहाँ भएका सबै जीवित थोकहरूलाई तरवारले प्रहार गरे र नष्‍ट पार्नलाई अलग गरे । त्यसैले त्यहाँ कोही पनि जीवित रहेन । अनि तिनले हासोरलाई आगो लगाए ।
12 And all the cities of those kings, and all the kings of them, did Joshua take, and he smote them with the edge of the sword, and utterly destroyed them; as Moses the servant of Jehovah commanded.
यहोशूले यी राजाहरूका सबै सहर कब्जा गरे । तिनले उनीहरूका सबै राजालाई कब्जा गरे र उनीहरूलाई तरवारले प्रहार गरे । परमप्रभुका दास मोशाले भनेझैँ तिनले उनीहरूलाई तरवारले पूर्ण रूपमा नष्‍ट पारे ।
13 But as for the cities that stood on their mounds, Israel burned none of them, save Hazor only; that did Joshua burn.
इस्राएलले डाँडामाथि निर्मित सहरहरू हासोरबाहेक अरू कुनैलाई पनि जलाएन । यहोशूले यसलाई मात्र जलाए ।
14 And all the spoil of these cities, and the cattle, the children of Israel took for a prey unto themselves; but every man they smote with the edge of the sword, until they had destroyed them, neither left they any that breathed.
इस्राएलको फौजले यी सहरहरूबाट गाईवस्तुहरूसहित सबै लूटका माल लिए । तिनीहरूले सबै मानिस नमरेसम्म सबै मानिसलाई तरवारले मारे । तिनीहरूले सास फेर्ने कुनै प्राणीलाई जीवित छाडेनन् ।
15 As Jehovah commanded Moses his servant, so did Moses command Joshua: and so did Joshua; he left nothing undone of all that Jehovah commanded Moses.
परमप्रभुले जसरी मोशालाई आज्ञा गर्नुभयो, त्यसरी नै मोशाले यहोशूलाई आज्ञा गरे र यहोशूले त्यसै गरे । परमप्रभुले मोशालाई आज्ञा गर्नुभएको कुनै पनि कुरालाई यहोशूले अपूरा छोडेनन् ।
16 So Joshua took all that land, the hill-country, and all the South, and all the land of Goshen, and the lowland, and the Arabah, and the hill-country of Israel, and the lowland of the same;
यहोशूले पहाडी देश, सबै नेगेव, गोशेनका सबै भूमि, पहाडहरू, यर्दन नदीको बेँसी, इस्राएको पहाडी देश र तराईको सबै भूमिलाई लिए ।
17 from mount Halak, that goeth up to Seir, even unto Baal-gad in the valley of Lebanon under mount Hermon: and all their kings he took, and smote them, and put them to death.
तिनले एदोम नजिकको हालाक डाँडादेखि उत्तरतिर हेर्मोन डाँडाको मुनि लेबनान नजिकको बेँसीमा पर्ने बाल-गादसम्म उनीहरूका सबै राजाहरूलाई कब्जा गरे र उनीहरूलाई मारे ।
18 Joshua made war a long time with all those kings.
यहोशूले सबै राजासँग लामो समयसम्म युद्ध गरे ।
19 There was not a city that made peace with the children of Israel, save the Hivites the inhabitants of Gibeon: they took all in battle.
गिबोनमा बस्‍ने हिव्वीहरूबाहेक कुनै पनि सहरले इस्राएलको फौजसँग शान्ति सम्झौता गरेनन् । इस्राएलले सबै बाँकी सहरलाई कब्जा गरे ।
20 For it was of Jehovah to harden their hearts, to come against Israel in battle, that he might utterly destroy them, that they might have no favor, but that he might destroy them, as Jehovah commanded Moses.
किनभने उनीहरूका हृदय कठोर बनाउनुहुने परमप्रभु नै हुनुहुन्थ्यो, त्यसैले उनीहरूले इस्राएलविरुद्ध लडाइँ गर्थे, ताकि उहाँले मोशालाई अह्राउनुभएझैँ उहाँले उनीहरूलाई दयाविना नै पूर्ण रूपमा नष्‍ट पार्नुभएको होस् ।
21 And Joshua came at that time, and cut off the Anakim from the hill-country, from Hebron, from Debir, from Anab, and from all the hill-country of Judah, and from all the hill-country of Israel: Joshua utterly destroyed them with their cities.
त्यसपछि यहोशू आए र तिनले अनाकीलाई नष्‍ट पारे । तिनले यो पहाडी देश, हेब्रोन, दबीर, अनाब, यहूदाका सबै पहाडी देश र इस्राएलका सबै पहाडी देशमा यसो गरे ।
22 There was none of the Anakim left in the land of the children of Israel: only in Gaza, in Gath, and in Ashdod, did some remain.
गाजा, गात र अश्दोदमा बस्‍ने बाहेक अनाकीहरू इस्राएलको भूमिमा कोही पनि रहेनन् ।
23 So Joshua took the whole land, according to all that Jehovah spake unto Moses; and Joshua gave it for an inheritance unto Israel according to their divisions by their tribes. And the land had rest from war.
त्यसैले परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्‍नुभएअनुसार यहोशूले सारा भूमि कब्जा गरे । यहोशूले यसलाई इस्राएललाई उत्तराधिकारको रूपमा दिए अर्थात् उनीहरूका हरेक कुललाई भाग लगाइदिए । त्यसपछि मुलुकले युद्धबाट विश्राम लियो ।
