< Numbers 16 >

1 Now Korah son of Izhar, the son of Kohath son of Levi, along with some Reubenites—Dathan and Abiram, sons of Eliab, and On son of Peleth—conducted
लेवीका पनाति, कहातका नाति, यिसहारका छोरा कोरहसाथै रूबेनका कुलका एलीआबका छोराहरू दातान र अबीराम अनि पेलेथका छोराले केही मानिसहरू भेला गरे ।
2 a rebellion against Moses, along with 250 men of Israel renowned as leaders of the congregation and representatives in the assembly.
तिनीहरू, इस्राएलका मानिसहरूका अन्य मानिसहरूसँगै दुई सय पचास समुदायका अगुवाहरू जो नाम चलेका सदस्यहरू थिए, मोशाको विरुद्धा खडा भए ।
3 They came together against Moses and Aaron and told them, “You have taken too much upon yourselves! For everyone in the entire congregation is holy, and the LORD is in their midst. Why then do you exalt yourselves above the assembly of the LORD?”
तिनीहरू मोशा र हारूनको सामना गर्न आफै भेला भए । तिनीहरूले उनीहरूलाई भने, “तपाईंहरूले अति गर्नुभयो! सबै समुदाय, तिनीहरूमध्ये हरेकलाई नै अलग गरिएको छ र परमप्रभु तिनीहरूसँग छन् । किन आफैलाई परमप्रभुको समुदायभन्दा माथि उठाउनुहुन्छ?”
4 When Moses heard this, he fell facedown.
जब मोशाले त्यो सुने, तिनी घोप्टो परे ।
5 Then he said to Korah and all his followers, “Tomorrow morning the LORD will reveal who belongs to Him and who is holy, and He will bring that person near to Himself. The one He chooses, He will bring near to Himself.
तिनले कोरह र उनका साथमा भएकाहरूलाई भने, “को उहाँका हुन् र कसलाई उहाँको निम्ति अलग गरिएको छ भनी परमप्रभुले बिहान देखाउनुहुने छ । त्यस व्‍यक्‍तिलाई उहाँले उहाँको नजिक ल्याउनुहुने छ । उहाँले चुन्‍नुभएकोलाई आफैले आफ्नो नजिक ल्याउनुहुने छ ।
6 You, Korah, and all your followers are to do as follows: Take censers,
कोरह र तिम्रा सबै समूहले यो गर । धुपौराहरू लेओ ।
7 and tomorrow you are to place fire and incense in them in the presence of the LORD. Then the man the LORD chooses will be the one who is holy. It is you sons of Levi who have taken too much upon yourselves!”
भोलि त्यसमा परमप्रभुको सामु धूप र आगो राख । परमप्रभुले चुन्‍नुहुने मानिसलाई उहाँको निम्ति अलग गरिनेछ । तिमी लेवीका सन्तानहरू अति धेरै भएका छौ ।”
8 Moses also said to Korah, “Now listen, you sons of Levi!
फेरि मोशाले कोरहलाई भने, “सुन, तिमी लेवीका सन्तानहरूः
9 Is it not enough for you that the God of Israel has separated you from the congregation of Israel and brought you near to Himself to perform the work at the LORD’s tabernacle, and to stand before the congregation to minister to them?
के परमप्रभुको पवित्र वासस्थानमा काम गर्न र समुदायको सेवा गर्न तिनीहरूको सामु खडा हुन इस्राएलको समुदायबाट तिमीहरूलाई छुट्ट्याएको तिमीहरूको निम्ति सानो कुरा हो?
10 He has brought you near, you and all your fellow Levites, but you are seeking the priesthood as well.
उहाँले तिमीहरू र तिमीहरूका सबै दाजुभाइ, लेवीका सन्तानहरूलाई तिमीहरूसँगै नजिक ल्याउनुभएको छ, अझै तिमीहरूले पुजारी पद पनि खोजिरहेका छौ!
11 Therefore, it is you and all your followers who have conspired against the LORD! As for Aaron, who is he that you should grumble against him?”
यसैले तिमी र तिमीहरूका सबै समूह सँगसँगै भेला भएका छौ । त्यसैले तिमीहरूले किन हारूनको बारेमा गनगन गरिरहेका छौ, जसले परमप्रभुको आज्ञा पालन गर्छन्?
12 Then Moses summoned Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, but they said, “We will not come!
त्यसपछि मोशाले दातान र अबीराम, एलीआबका छोराहरूलाई बोलाए । तर तिनीहरूले भने, “हामी आउँदैनौँ ।
13 Is it not enough that you have brought us up out of a land flowing with milk and honey to kill us in the wilderness? Must you also appoint yourself as ruler over us?
के हामीलाई दूध र मह बग्‍ने मुलुकबाट यो मरुभूमिमा मार्नलाई ल्याउनु मामुलि कुरा हो? अब तपाईं आफै हाम्रो शासक हुन चाहन्छ!
14 Moreover, you have not brought us into a land flowing with milk and honey or given us an inheritance of fields and vineyards. Will you gouge out the eyes of these men? No, we will not come!”
यसको अतिरिक्‍त, तपाईंले हामीलाई दूध र मह बग्‍ने मुलुकमा ल्याउनुभएको छैन अथवा हामीलाई खेत र दाखबारीहरू उत्तराधिकारको रूपमा दिनुभएको छैन । के अब हामीलाई खोक्रो प्रतिज्ञाले अन्धा बनाउन चाहनुहुन्छ? हामी तपाईंकहाँ आउँदैनौँ ।”
15 Then Moses became very angry and said to the LORD, “Do not regard their offering. I have not taken one donkey from them or mistreated a single one of them.”
मोशा साह्रै रिसाए र परमप्रभुलाई भने, “तिनीहरूको भेटीको कदर नगर्नुहोस् । मैले तिनीहरूबाट एउटा गधा पनि लिएको छैनँ, र मैले तिनीहरू कसैलाई पनि हानि पुर्‍याएको छैनँ ।
16 And Moses said to Korah, “You and all your followers are to appear before the LORD tomorrow—you and they and Aaron.
मोशाले कोरहलाई भने, “भोलि तिमी र तिम्रा सबै दल अर्थात् तिमी, तिनीहरू र हारून परमप्रभुको सामु जानुपर्छ । तिमीहरू हरेकले आ-आफ्ना धुपौरा लिनुपर्छ र यसमा धूप राख्‍नुपर्छ ।
17 Each man is to take his censer, place incense in it, and present it before the LORD—250 censers. You and Aaron are to present your censers as well.”
अनि हरेकले आ-आफ्ना दुई सय पचासवटा धुपौरा परमप्रभुको सामु ल्याउनुपर्छ । तिमी र हारूनले पनि आ-आफ्ना धुपौरा ल्याउनुपर्छ ।”
18 So each man took his censer, put fire and incense in it, and stood with Moses and Aaron at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.
यसैले हरेकले आ-आफ्ना धुपौरा लिए, यसमा आगो राखे, यसमा धूप राखे र मोशा र हारूनसँगै भेट हुने पालको प्रवेश-द्वारमा खडा भए ।
19 When Korah had gathered his whole assembly against them at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting, the glory of the LORD appeared to the whole congregation.
कोरहले सारा समुदायलाई मोशा र हारूनको विरुद्धमा भेट हुने पालको प्रवेश-द्वारमा भेला पारे र परमप्रभुको महिमा सारा समुदायकहाँ देखा पर्‍यो ।
20 And the LORD said to Moses and Aaron,
परमप्रभु मोशा र हारूनसँग बोल्नुभयो,
21 “Separate yourselves from this congregation so that I may consume them in an instant.”
“यस समुदायबाट अलग होओ, ताकि म तिनीहरूलाई तत्कालै विनाश गर्न सकौँ ।”
22 But Moses and Aaron fell facedown and said, “O God, the God of the spirits of all flesh, when one man sins, will You be angry with the whole congregation?”
मोशा र हारून घोप्‍टो परे र भने, “हे परमेश्‍वर, सारा मानव-जातिको आत्माका परमेश्‍वर, एक जनाले पाप गर्दा, के तपाईं सबै समुदायसँग रिसाउनुहुन्छ?”
23 Then the LORD said to Moses,
परमप्रभुले मोशालाई जवाफ दिनुभयो,
24 “Tell the congregation to move away from the dwellings of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram.”
“समुदायलाई भन् । 'कोरह, दातान र अबीरामका पालहरूबाट पर जाओ' भन् ।”
25 So Moses got up and went to Dathan and Abiram, and the elders of Israel followed him.
अनि मोशा खडा भए र दातान र अबीरामको पालमा गए; इस्राएलका धर्म-गुरुहरू तिनको पछि-पछि गए ।
26 And he warned the congregation, “Move away now from the tents of these wicked men. Do not touch anything that belongs to them, or you will be swept away because of all their sins.”
तिनले समुदायलाई यसो भने, “यी दुष्‍टहरूका पालहरूबाट हट र तिनीहरूको कुनै पनि कुरा नछोओ नत्रता तिनीहरूका सबै पापद्वारा नष्‍ट हुनेछौ ।”
27 So they moved away from the dwellings of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram. Meanwhile, Dathan and Abiram had come out and stood at the entrances to their tents with their wives and children and infants.
यसैले कोरह, दातान र अबीरामका पाल वरिपरिका समुदायले तिनीहरूलाई छोडे । दातान र अबीराम तिनीहरूका पत्‍नीहरू, छोराहरू र स-साना बालबालिकाहरूसहित तिनीहरूका पालको प्रवेश-द्वारमा खडा भए ।
28 Then Moses said, “This is how you will know that the LORD has sent me to do all these things, for it was not my own doing:
मोशाले भने, “यसैद्वारा यी सबै थोक गर्न मलाई परमप्रभुले पठाउनुभएको छ भन्‍ने तिमीहरूले जान्‍नेछौ, किनभने मैले तिनीहरू मेरो आफ्नै इच्छामा गरेको छैन ।
29 If these men die a natural death, or if they suffer the fate of all men, then the LORD has not sent me.
यदि यी मानिसहरू सामान्य रूपमा हुने स्वाभाविक मृत्युद्वारा मर्छन् भने, मलाई परमप्रभुले पठाउनुभएको होइन ।
30 But if the LORD brings about something unprecedented, and the earth opens its mouth and swallows them and all that belongs to them so that they go down alive into Sheol, then you will know that these men have treated the LORD with contempt.” (Sheol h7585)
तर यदि परमप्रभुले कुनै नयाँ कुरा सृजना गर्नुहुन्छ, धर्तीले आफ्नो मुख उघार्छ र तिनीहरूसाथै तिनीहरूका सबै थोकलाई निल्छ, र तिनीहरू जिउँदै चिहानभित्र जान्छन् भने, यी मानिसहरूले परमप्रभुलाई तिरस्कार गरेका छन् भनी तिमीहरूले बुझ्नुपर्छ ।” (Sheol h7585)
31 As soon as Moses had finished saying all this, the ground beneath them split open,
मोशाले यी कुराहरू भनी सिद्ध्याउने बित्तिकै ती मानिसहरूमुनिको जमिन फाट्यो ।
32 and the earth opened its mouth and swallowed them and their households—all Korah’s men and all their possessions.
धर्तीले यसको मुख उघार्‍यो अनि तिनीहरूका परिवारहरू र कोरहसँग भएका सबै मानिसहरूसाथै तिनीहरूका सबै थोकलाई निल्यो ।
33 They went down alive into Sheol with all they owned. The earth closed over them, and they vanished from the assembly. (Sheol h7585)
यसैले तिनीहरू र तिनीहरूसँग भएका सबै थोक जिउँदै चिहानभित्र लगिए । धर्ती तिनीहरूमाथि बन्द भयो, र तिनीहरू समुदायबाट नष्‍ट भए । (Sheol h7585)
34 At their cries, all the people of Israel who were around them fled, saying, “The earth may swallow us too!”
तिनीहरूका वरिपरि भएका इस्राएलीहरू चिच्‍च्याउँदै भागे । तिनीहरू, “धर्तीले हामीलाई पनि निल्ने भो!” भन्‍दै चिच्‍च्याए ।
35 And fire came forth from the LORD and consumed the 250 men who were offering the incense.
अनि परमप्रभुबाट आगोको ज्वाला निस्क्यो र धूप बालेका २५० जना मानिसलाई नष्‍ट गर्‍यो ।
36 Then the LORD said to Moses,
फेरि परमप्रभु मोशासँग बोल्नुभयो,
37 “Tell Eleazar son of Aaron the priest to remove the censers from the flames and to scatter the coals far away, because the censers are holy.
“पुजारी हारूनका छोरा एलाजारलाई भन् र त्यसले धुपौराहरूलाई आगोबाट निकालोस्, किनभने धुपौराहरू मेरा निम्ति अलग गरिएका छन् । त्यसले बलिरहेका आगोका फिलुङ्गाहरूलाई छरोस् ।
38 As for the censers of those who sinned at the cost of their own lives, hammer them into sheets to overlay the altar, for these were presented before the LORD, and so have become holy. They will serve as a sign to the Israelites.”
आफ्नो पापको कारण जीवन गुमाउनेहरूको धुपौराहरू ले । तिनीहरूलाई पिटेर वेदीलाई मोहर्ने पाताहरू बनाइयोस् । ती मानिसहरूले तिनीहरूलाई मेरो निम्ति अर्पण गरे । यसैले तिनीहरूलाई मेरो निम्ति अलग गर । तिनीहरू इस्राएलका मानिसहरूका निम्ति मेरो उपस्थितिको चिन्ह हुने छन् ।
39 So Eleazar the priest took the bronze censers brought by those who had been burned up, and he had them hammered out to overlay the altar,
पुजारी एलाजारले आगोले नष्‍ट भएका मानिसहरूले प्रयोग गरेका काँसाका धुपौराहरू लिए र
40 just as the LORD commanded him through Moses. This was to be a reminder to the Israelites that no outsider who is not a descendant of Aaron should approach to offer incense before the LORD, lest he become like Korah and his followers.
इस्राएलका मानिसहरूलाई याद दिलाउने कुरा हुनलाई तिनीहरूलाई पिटेर वेदी मोहर्ने बनाइयो, परमप्रभुको सामु धूप बाल्न ताकि हारूनका सन्तान बाहिर कोही पनि नआओस् र परमप्रभुले मोशालाई आज्ञा गर्नुभएझैँ तिनीहरू कोरह र तिनका समूहजस्ता नहोऊन् ।
41 The next day the whole congregation of Israel grumbled against Moses and Aaron, saying, “You have killed the LORD’s people!”
तर अर्को बिहान इस्राएलका सबै मानिसको समुदायले मोशा र हारून विरुद्ध गनगन गरे । तिनीहरूले भने, “तिमीहरूले परमप्रभुका मानिसहरूलाई मारेका छौ ।”
42 But when the congregation gathered against them, Moses and Aaron turned toward the Tent of Meeting, and suddenly the cloud covered it and the glory of the LORD appeared.
समुदाय मोशा र हारूनको विरुद्ध भेला हुँदा तिनीहरूले भेट हुने पालतिर हेरे अनि हेर! यसलाई बादलले ढाकिरहेको थियो । परमप्रभुका महिमा देखा पर्‍यो,
43 Then Moses and Aaron went to the front of the Tent of Meeting,
र मोशा र हारून भेट हुने पालको अघि आए ।
44 and the LORD said to Moses,
अनि परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्‍नुभयो,
45 “Get away from this congregation so that I may consume them in an instant.” And Moses and Aaron fell facedown.
“यो समुदायबाट गइहाल् ताकि मैले तिनीहरूलाई अहिलै नष्‍ट पार्न सकौँ ।” अनि मोशा र हारून जमिनमा घोप्टो परे ।
46 Moses said to Aaron, “Take your censer, place fire from the altar in it, and add incense. Go quickly to the congregation and make atonement for them, because wrath has come out from the LORD; the plague has begun.”
मोशाले हारूनलाई भने, “धुपौरा लिनुहोस्, वेदीबाट यसमा आगो हाल्नुहोस्, यसमा धूप हाल्नुहोस्, यसलाई समुदायकहाँ छिटो लानुहोस् र तिनीहरूका निम्ति प्रायश्‍चित्त गर्नुहोस्, किनभने परमप्रभुको क्रोध आइरहेको छ । विपत्ति सुरु भएको छ ।
47 So Aaron took the censer as Moses had ordered and ran into the midst of the assembly. And seeing that the plague had begun among the people, he offered the incense and made atonement for the people.
यसैले हारूले मोशाले अह्राएबमोजिम गरे । तिनी समुदायको बिचमा दौडेर गए । विपत्ति मानिसहरूबिच फैलिन थालेको थियो, यसैले तिनले धूप राखे र मानिसहरूका निम्ति प्रायश्‍चित्त गरे ।
48 He stood between the living and the dead, and the plague was halted.
हारून जीवित र मृतकहरूका बिचमा खडा भए । यसरी विपत्ति रोकियो ।
49 But those who died from the plague numbered 14,700, in addition to those who had died on account of Korah.
कोरहको विषयमा पनि मरेका अतिरिक्‍त विपत्तिमा मर्नेहरूको सङ्ख्या १४,७०० थियो ।
50 Then Aaron returned to Moses at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting, since the plague had been halted.
हारून भेट हुने पालको प्रवेश-द्वारमा मोशाकहाँ फर्केर आए र विपत्ति रोकियो ।
