2 Chronicles 15
1 And the spirit of God came on Azariah, the son of Oded;
परमेश्वरका आत्मा ओदेदका छोरा अजर्याहमाथि आउनुभयो ।
2 And he came face to face with Asa and said to him, Give ear to me, Asa and all Judah and Benjamin: the Lord is with you while you are with him; if your heart's desire is for him, he will be near you, but if you give him up, he will give you up.
तिनी आसालाई भेट गर्न गए र तिनलाई भने, “ए आसा, यहूदा र बेन्यामीनका सबै जना, मेरा कुरा सुन्नुहोस्: जब तपाईंहरू परमप्रभुसँग रहनुहुन्छ, तब उहाँ पनि तपाईंहरूसँग हुनुहुन्छ । तपाईंहरूले उहाँलाई खोज्नुभयो भने, तपाईंहरूले उहाँलाई भेट्टाउनुहुनेछ । तर तपाईंहरूले उहाँलाई त्याग्नुभयो भने उहाँले पनि तपाईंहरूलाई त्याग्नुहुनेछ ।
3 Now for a long time Israel has been without the true God, and without a teaching priest and without the law;
अब धेरै समयसम्म इस्राएल साँचो परमेश्वर, सिकाउने पुजारी र व्यवस्थाविना थियो ।
4 But when in their trouble they were turned to the Lord, the God of Israel, searching after him, he let their search be rewarded.
तर जब आफ्नो कष्टमा तिनीहरू परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्वरतिर फर्के र उहाँलाई खोजे, तब तिनीहरूले उहाँलाई पाउन सके ।
5 In those times there was no peace for him who went out or for him who came in, but great trouble was on all the people of the lands.
त्यसबेला यहाँबाट यात्रा गरेर टाढा जाने र यात्रा गरेर यहाँ आउने दुबैलाई शान्ति थिएन । बरू, देशमा बसोबास गर्ने सबैमाथि ठूलो संकष्ट थियो ।
6 And they were broken by divisions, nation against nation and town against town, because God sent all sorts of trouble on them.
तिनीहरू टुक्रा-टुक्रा पारिए, राष्ट्रको विरूद्ध राष्ट्र, र सहरको विरूद्ध सहर, किनकि परमेश्वरले तिनीहरूलाई सबै किसिमका दु: खले समस्यामा पार्नुभयो ।
7 But be you strong and let not your hands be feeble, for your work will be rewarded.
तर तपाईंहरू बलियो हुनुहोस्, आफ्ना हातहरू कमजोर हुन नदिनुहोस्, किनकि तपाईंका कामहरूको प्रतिफल दिइनेछ ।”
8 And Asa, hearing these words of Azariah, the son of Oded the prophet, took heart and put away all the disgusting things out of all the land of Judah and Benjamin, and out of the towns which he had taken from the hill-country of Ephraim; and he made new again the altar of the Lord in front of the covered way of the Lord's house.
जब आसाले यी कुरा, ओदेदका छोरा अजर्याह अगमवक्ताका अगमवाणी सुने, तब तिनको साहस बढ्यो, र यहूदा र बेन्यामीनका सारा देश र तिनले कब्जा गरेका एफ्राइमका पहाडी देशका सहरहरूबाट घिनलाग्दा कुराहरू सबै हटाइदिए, र तिनले परमप्रभुको मन्दिरका दलानको अगि भएको परमप्रभुको वेदी पनि मरम्मत गरे ।
9 And he got together all Judah and Benjamin and those of Ephraim and Manasseh and Simeon who were living with them; for numbers of them came to him out of Israel when they saw that the Lord his God was with him.
तिनले सारा यहूदा र बेन्यामीन र एफ्राइम, मनश्शे र शिमियोनबाट तिनीहरूसँग बस्नेहरूलाई भेला गरे । किनभने परमप्रभु तिनका परमेश्वर तिनीसँग हुनुभएको तिनीहरूले देखेर इस्राएलबाट तिनीहरू धेरै सङ्ख्यामा तिनीकहाँ आए ।
10 So they came together at Jerusalem in the third month, in the fifteenth year of the rule of Asa.
यसैले आसाका राजकालको पन्ध्रौँ वर्षको तेस्रो महिनामा तिनीहरू यरूशलेममा एकसाथ भेला भए ।
11 And that day they made offerings to the Lord of the things they had taken in war, seven hundred oxen and seven thousand sheep.
त्यस दिन तिनीहरूले ल्याएको लूटका मालबाट परमप्रभुलाई सात सय साँढे र सात हजार भेडाहरू र बाख्राहरू बलिदान चढाए ।
12 And they made an agreement to be true to the Lord, the God of their fathers, with all their heart and all their soul;
तिनीहरू आफ्ना सारा हृदय र आफ्ना सारा प्राणले परमप्रभु आफ्ना पुर्खाका परमेश्वरको खोजी गर्नलाई करार बाँधे ।
13 And that anyone, small or great, man or woman, who was not true to the Lord, the God of Israel, would be put to death.
अनि परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्वरलाई नखोज्ने जोसुकैलाई मारिनुपर्छ भन्ने कुरामा तिनीहरूले सहमती गरेः चाहे त्यो व्यक्ति सानो होस् वा ठूलो होस्, चाहे पुरुष होस् वा स्त्री होस् ।
14 And they made an oath to the Lord, with a loud voice, sounding wind-instruments and horns.
तिनीहरूले ठूलो सोर, चिच्च्याएर, र तुरहीहरू र नरसिङ्गा बजाउँदै परमप्रभुसँग शपथ खाए ।
15 And all Judah was glad because of the oath, for they had taken it with all their heart, turning to the Lord with all their desire; and he was with them and gave them rest on every side.
सारा यहूदा शपथमा आनन्दित भयो, किनकि तिनीहरूले आफ्ना पूरा हृदयले शपथ खाएका थिए, र तिनीहरूले आफ्ना सारा इच्छाले परमेश्वरलाई खोजे, र तिनीहरूले उहाँलाई पाउन सके । तिनीहरूका वरिपरि सबैतिरबाट परमप्रभुले तिनीहरूलाई शान्ति दिनुभयो ।
16 And Asa would not let Maacah, his mother, be queen, because she had made a disgusting image for Asherah; and Asa had her image cut down and broken up and burned by the stream Kidron.
तिनले आफ्नी हजुरआमा माकालाई पनि राजमाताको पदबाट हटाइदिए, किनभने तिनले अशेरा देवीको खम्बोबाट घिनलाग्दो मूर्ति बनाएकी थिइन् । आसाले त्यो घिनलाग्दो मूर्तिलाई काटेर ढालिदिए, त्यसलाई धुलोपिठो पारे र किद्रोन खोल्सामा जलाइदिए ।
17 But the high places were not taken away out of Israel; but still the heart of Asa was true to the Lord all his life.
तर डाँडाहरूमा भएका अल्गा थानहरू इस्राएलबाट हटाइएनन् । तापनि आसाको जीवनकालभरि तिनको हृदय विश्वासयोग्य रहिरह्यो ।
18 He took into the house of God all the things which his father had made holy and those which he himself had made holy, silver and gold and vessels.
तिनले आफ्ना पिताले अर्पण गरेका सुन, चाँदी र भाँडाकुँडाहरू परमेश्वरको मन्दिरमा ल्याए ।
19 And there was no more war till the thirty-fifth year of the rule of Asa.
आसाको राजकालको पैँतिसौँ वर्षसम्म कुनै युद्ध भएन ।
