1 Samuel 31
1 Now the Philistines fought against Israel, and the men of Israel fled before them, and many fell slain on Mount Gilboa.
यति बेला पलिश्तीहरूले इस्राएलको विरुद्धमा युद्ध गरे । इस्राएलका मानिसहरू पलिश्तीहरूका सामुबाट भागे र गिल्बो डाँडामा मरे ।
2 The Philistines followed hard after Saul and his sons, and they killed Saul’s sons Jonathan, Abinadab, and Malchishua.
पलिश्तीहरूले शाऊल र तिनका छोराहरूलाई नजिकैबाट खेदे । पलिश्तीहरूले तिनका छोराहरू जोनाथन, अबीनादाब र मल्कीशूअलाई मारे ।
3 When the battle intensified against Saul, the archers overtook him and wounded him critically.
युद्ध शाऊलको विरुद्धमा निकै भारी पर्यो र धनुर्धारीहरूले तिनलाई भेट्टाए । तिनीहरूका कारणले गर्दा तिनी घोर पीडामा परे ।
4 Then Saul said to his armor-bearer, “Draw your sword and run it through me, or these uncircumcised men will come and run me through and torture me!” But his armor-bearer was terrified and refused to do it. So Saul took his own sword and fell on it.
तब शाऊलले आफ्नो हतियार बोक्नेलाई भने, “तेरो तरवार थुत र त्यसले मलाई छेडिदे । नत्रता यी बेखतनाहरू आउनेछन् र मलाई दुर्व्यवहार गर्नेछन् ।” तर तिनका हतियार बोक्नेले त्यसो गरेन, किनकि ऊ साह्रै डराएका थियो । त्यसैले शाऊलले आफ्नै तरवार लिए र यसमाथि उनिए ।
5 When his armor-bearer saw that Saul was dead, he too fell on his own sword and died with him.
जब तिनका हतियार बोक्नेले शाऊल मरेको देखे, तिनी पनि त्यसैगरी आफ्नो तरवारमा उनिएर तिनीसँगै मरे ।
6 So Saul, his three sons, his armor-bearer, and all his men died together that same day.
यसरी शाऊल, तिनका तिन जना छोरा र तिनका हतियार बोक्ने मरे— यी मानिसहरू सबै त्यसै दिन मरे ।
7 When the Israelites along the valley and those on the other side of the Jordan saw that the army of Israel had fled and that Saul and his sons had died, they abandoned their cities and ran away. So the Philistines came and occupied their cities.
जब मैदानको पारीपट्टि भएका इस्राएलका मानिसहरू र यर्दनको पारिपट्टि भएकाहरूले इस्राएलका मानिसहरू भागेका, र शाऊल र तिनका छोराहरू मरेका देखे, तब तिनीहरूले आफ्ना सहरहरू छाडे र भागे, अनि पलिश्तीहरू आए र तिनीहरूमा बसोबास गरे ।
8 The next day, when the Philistines came to strip the dead, they found Saul and his three sons fallen on Mount Gilboa.
भोलिपल्ट यसो भयो, जब पलिश्तीहरू मृतकहरूलाई लूट्न आए तब तिनीहरूले शाऊल र तिनका छोराहरूलाई गिल्बो डाँडामा मृत फेला पारे ।
9 They cut off Saul’s head, stripped off his armor, and sent messengers throughout the land of the Philistines to proclaim the news in the temples of their idols and among their people.
तिनीहरूले उनको शिर काटे, उनको हतियार लूटे र आफ्ना मूर्तीहरूका मन्दिरहरू र मानिसहरूकहाँ समाचार लैजानलाई पलिश्तीहरूका देशभरि दूतहरू पठाए ।
10 They put his armor in the temple of the Ashtoreths and hung his body on the wall of Beth-shan.
उनका हतियारलाई तिनीहरूले अश्तोरेतको मन्दिरमा राखे र तिनीहरूले उनको शरीरलाई बेथ-शानको सहरको पर्कालमा बाँधे ।
11 When the people of Jabesh-gilead heard what the Philistines had done to Saul,
जब याबेश-गिलादका बासिन्दाहरूले पलिश्तीहरूले शाऊललाई गरेका कुरा सुने,
12 all their men of valor set out, journeyed all night, and retrieved the bodies of Saul and his sons from the wall of Beth-shan. When they arrived at Jabesh, they burned the bodies there.
तब सबै लडाकु मानिसहरू उठे र रातभरि यात्रा गरेर गए अनि शाऊल र तिनका छोराहरूको शरीर बेथ-शानको पर्खालबाट ल्याए । तिनीहरू याबेशमा गए र तिनीहरूलाई जलाए ।
13 Then they took their bones and buried them under the tamarisk tree in Jabesh, and they fasted seven days.
त्यसपछि तिनीहरूले उनीहरूका हड्डीहरू लिए र तिनलाई याबेशको झ्याउको रूखमुनि गाडे अनि तिनीहरू सात दिनसम्म उपवास बसे ।
