< 2 Kings 16 >

1 In the seventeenth year of Pekah son of Remaliah, Ahaz son of Jotham became king of Judah.
रमल्याहका छोरा पेकहको सत्रौँ वर्षमा यहूदाका राजा योतामका छोरा आहाजले राज्‍य सुरु गरे ।
2 Ahaz was twenty years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem sixteen years. And unlike David his father, he did not do what was right in the eyes of the LORD his God.
आहाजले राज्‍य गर्न सुरु गर्दा तिनी बिस वर्षका थिए, र तिनले यरूशलेममा सोह्र वर्ष राज्य गरे । तिनका पुर्ख दाऊदले गरेझैँ परमप्रभुको दृष्‍टिमा जे ठिक थियो, तिनले त्‍यो गरेनन् ।
3 Instead, he walked in the ways of the kings of Israel and even sacrificed his son in the fire, according to the abominations of the nations that the LORD had driven out before the Israelites.
बरु, तिनी इस्राएलका राजाहरूको चालमा हिंडे । वास्तवमा परमप्रभुले इस्राएलका मानिसहरूको सामुबाट धपाउनुभएका जातिहरूका घृणित अभ्यासहरूको अनुसरण गरेर तिनले आफ्नो छोरोलाई आगोमा टेकेर हिंड्‍न लगाए ।
4 And he sacrificed and burned incense on the high places, on the hills, and under every green tree.
तिनले उच्‍च थानहरू, डाँडाका टाकुराहरू र हरेक हरियो रुखमुनि बलिदानहरू चढाए र धूप बाले ।
5 Then Rezin king of Aram and Pekah son of Remaliah king of Israel came up to wage war against Jerusalem. They besieged Ahaz but could not overcome him.
तब अरामका राजा रसीन र इस्राएलका राजा रमल्याहका छोरा पेकह आक्रमण गर्न यरूशलेममा आए । तिनीहरूले आहाजलाई घेरे तापनि तिनीहरूले तिनलाई पराजित गर्न सकेनन् ।
6 At that time Rezin king of Aram recovered Elath for Aram, drove out the men of Judah, and sent the Edomites into Elath, where they live to this day.
त्यस बेला अरामका राजा रसीनले अरामको लागि एलात फेरि प्राप्‍त गरे र यहूदाका मानिसहरूलाई एलातबाट धपाए । तब अरामीहरू एलातमा आए, जहाँ तिनीहरू आजको दिनसम्म नै बसेका छन् ।
7 So Ahaz sent messengers to Tiglath-pileser king of Assyria, saying, “I am your servant and your son. Come up and save me from the hands of the kings of Aram and Israel, who are rising up against me.”
त्‍यसैले आहाजले अश्शूरका राजा तिग्लत-पिलेसेरकहाँ यसो भनेर सन्देशवाहकहरू पठाए, “म तपाईंको सेवक र तपाईंको छोरो हुँ । माथि आउनुहोस् र अरामका राजा र इस्राएलका राजाको हातबाट मलाई बचाउनुहोस् जसले मलाई आक्रमण गरेका छन् ।”
8 Ahaz also took the silver and gold found in the house of the LORD and in the treasuries of the king’s palace, and he sent it as a gift to the king of Assyria.
त्यसैले आहाजले परमप्रभुको मन्दिरमा भेट्टाइएका चाँदी र सुन अनि राजदरबारका धन-सम्‍पति लिए र अश्शूरका राजाकहाँ उपहारको रूपमा ति पठाए ।
9 So the king of Assyria responded to him, marched up to Damascus, and captured it. He took its people to Kir as captives and put Rezin to death.
तब अश्शूरका राजाले तिनको कुरा सुने, र अश्शूरका राजा दमस्कसको विरुद्धमा गए, त्‍यसमाथि विजय हासिल गरे र यहाँका मानिसहरूलाई बन्दी बनाएर कीरमा लगे । तिनले अरामका राजा रसीनलाई पनि मारे ।
10 Then King Ahaz went to Damascus to meet Tiglath-pileser king of Assyria. On seeing the altar in Damascus, King Ahaz sent Uriah the priest a model of the altar and complete plans for its construction.
राजा आहाज अश्शूरका राजा तिग्लत-पिलेसेरलाई भेट्न दमस्कसमा गए । दमस्कसमा तिनले एउटा वेदी देखे । तिनले आवश्यक सबै कामको लागि वेदीको ढाँचा र तरिका उरियाह पुजारीलाई नमुनाको लागि पठाए ।
11 And Uriah the priest built the altar according to all the instructions King Ahaz had sent from Damascus, and he completed it by the time King Ahaz had returned.
त्यसैले राजा आहाजले दमस्कसबाट पठाएको योजनाहरू जस्‍तै ढाँचाको वेदी उरियाह पुजारीले बनाए । राजा आहाज दमस्कसबाट फर्कनुअगि तिनले यसलाई बनेर सिद्ध्याए ।
12 When the king came back from Damascus and saw the altar, he approached it and presented offerings on it.
राजा दमस्कसबाट आएपछि, तिनले वेदी देखे । राजा वेदीमा गए र बलिदानहरू चढाए ।
13 He offered his burnt offering and his grain offering, poured out his drink offering, and sprinkled the blood of his peace offerings on the altar.
तिनले आफ्ना होमबलि र अन्‍नबलि चढाए, आफ्‍नो अर्घबलि खन्याए, अनि मेलबलिको रगतलाई वेदीमाथि छर्के ।
14 He also took the bronze altar that stood before the LORD from the front of the temple (between the new altar and the house of the LORD) and he put it on the north side of the new altar.
परमप्रभुको सामु भएको काँसाको वेदी, तिनले परमप्रभुको मन्दिरको सामुबाट अर्थात् तिनको वेदी र परमप्रभुको मन्दिरको बिचबाट ल्‍याए र आफ्‍नो वेदीको उत्तरपट्टि राखे ।
15 Then King Ahaz commanded Uriah the priest, “Offer on the great altar the morning burnt offering, the evening grain offering, and the king’s burnt offering and grain offering, as well as the burnt offerings, grain offerings, and drink offerings of all the people of the land. Sprinkle on the altar all the blood of the burnt offerings and sacrifices. But I will use the bronze altar to seek guidance.”
तब राजा आहाजले उरियाह पुजारीलाई यसो भनेर आदेश दिए, “ठुलो वेदीमा बिहानको होमबलि र साँझको अन्‍नबलि अनि राजाको होमबलि र तिनको अन्‍नबलिलाई देश भरिका सबै मानिसका होमबलि र तिनीहरूका अन्‍नबलि र तिनीहरूका अर्घबलिसँगै चढाऊ । यसमाथि होमबलिको सबै रगत र बलिदानका सबै रगत छर्क । तर काँसाको वेदीचाहिं मार्गदर्शनको सल्लाह लिन मेरो निम्‍ति हुनेछ ।”
16 So Uriah the priest did just as King Ahaz had commanded.
राजा आहाजले जसरी आज्ञा दिए, उरियाह पुजारीले त्‍यसरी नै गरे ।
17 King Ahaz also cut off the frames of the movable stands and removed the bronze basin from each of them. He took down the Sea from the bronze oxen that were under it and put it on a stone base.
तब राजा आहाजले गुड्‍ने आधारहरूबाट पाटाहरू र बाटाहरू हटाए । तिनले विशाल खँड्कुलोलाई त्यसलाई थामिराख्‍ने काँसाका साँढेहरूबाट निकाले र ढुङ्गाको आधारमा राखे ।
18 And on account of the king of Assyria, he removed the Sabbath canopy they had built in the temple and closed the royal entryway outside the house of the LORD.
तिनले शबाथमा प्रयोग गरिने चँदुवालाई हटाए जसलाई तिनीहरूले मन्दिरमा निर्माण गरेका थिए । तिनले अश्शूरका राजाको कारणले मन्दिरबाहिर भएको राजकीय प्रवेशद्वारलाई पनि हटाइदिए ।
19 As for the rest of the acts of Ahaz, along with his accomplishments, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
आहाज र तिनले गरेका कामका बारेमा ती यहूदाका राजाहरूको इतिहासको पुस्तकमा लेखिएका छैनन् र?
20 And Ahaz rested with his fathers and was buried with them in the City of David, and his son Hezekiah reigned in his place.
आहाज आफ्ना पुर्खाहरूसित सुते र दाऊदको सहरमा तिनका पुर्खाहरूसँगै गाडिए । तिनको ठाउँमा तिनका छोरा हिजकिया राजा भए ।
