2 Chronicles 16
1 In the thirty-sixth year of the rule of Asa, Baasha, king of Israel, went up against Judah, building Ramah so that no one was able to go out or in to Asa, king of Judah.
आसाका राजकालको छत्तीसौँ वर्षमा इस्राएलका राजा बाशा यहूदाको विरूद्ध आक्रामक रूपले प्रस्तुत भए र रामालाई बजमूत गराए, ताकि कोही पनि यहूदाका राजा आसाको देशभित्र जान र बाहिर आउन नसकून् ।
2 Then Asa took silver and gold out of the stores of the Lord's house and of the king's store-house, and sent to Ben-hadad, king of Aram, at Damascus, saying,
त्यसपछि आसाले परमप्रभुको मन्दिर र राजाको महलका भण्डारका सुन र चाँदीहरू निकालेर ती दमस्कसमा बस्ने अरामका राजा बेन-हददकहाँ पठाए । तिनले भने,
3 Let there be an agreement between me and you as there was between my father and your father: see, I have sent you silver and gold; go and put an end to your agreement with Baasha, king of Israel, so that he may give up attacking me.
“मेरा पिता र तपाईंका पिताको बिचमा भएजस्तै मेरो र तपाईंका बिचमा पनि एउटा करार होस् । हेर्नुहोस्, मैले तपाईंलाई चाँदी र सुन पठाएको छु । इस्राएलका राजा बाशासँग तपाईंको सन्धि तोडिदिनुहोस्, ताकि तिनले मलाई हस्तक्षेप नगरुन् ।”
4 And Ben-hadad did as King Asa said, and sent the captains of his armies against the towns of Israel, attacking Ijon and Dan and Abel-maim, and all the store-towns of Naphtali.
बेन-हददले आसा राजाको कुरा स्वीकार गरेर आफ्ना फौजका कमाण्डरलाई इस्राएलका सहरहरूका विरुद्धमा लड्न पठाए । तिनीहरूले इयोन, दान, हाबिल-मैम र नप्तालीका सबै भण्डार राख्ने सहरमाथि आक्रमण गरे ।
5 Then Baasha, hearing of it, put a stop to the building of Ramah, and let his work come to an end.
जब बाशाले यो कुरा सुने तब यस्तो भयो, तिनले रामालाई मजबूत बनाउन छोडिदिए, र आफ्ना काम बन्द गरिदिए ।
6 Then King Asa, with all Judah, took away the stones and wood with which Baasha was building Ramah, and he made use of them for building Geba and Mizpah.
त्यसपछि आसा राजाले यहूदाका सबैलाई आफूसित लगे । तिनीहरूले बाशाले बनाउँदै गरेको रामाका ढुङ्गा र काठहरू उठाएर लगे । त्यसपछि आसा राजाले गेबा र मिस्पालाई मजबूत पार्न ती सामाग्री प्रयोग गरे ।
7 At that time Hanani the seer came to Asa, king of Judah, and said to him, Because you have put your faith in the king of Aram and not in the Lord your God, the army of the king of Aram has got away out of your hands.
त्यस बेला दर्शी हनानी यहूदाका राजा आसाकहाँ आए र तिनलाई भने, “तपाईंले अरामका राजामाथि भरोसा गर्नुभएको हुनाले र परमप्रभु आफ्ना परमेश्वरमाथि भरोसा नगर्नुभएको हुनाले गर्दा अरामका राजाको फौज तपाईंको हातबाट उम्केको छ ।
8 Were not the Ethiopians and the Lubim a very great army, with war-carriages and horsemen more than might be numbered? but because your faith was in the Lord, he gave them up into your hands.
के कूशीहरू र लिबियालीहरू असंख्य रथ र घोड़चढ़ीहरू भएको विशाल फौज थिएनन्? तापनि तपाईंले परमप्रभुमाथि भरोसा राख्नुभएको हुनाले, उहाँले तपाईंलाई उनीहरूमाथि विजय दिनुभयो ।
9 For the eyes of the Lord go this way and that, through all the earth, letting it be seen that he is the strong support of those whose hearts are true to him. In this you have done foolishly, for from now you will have wars.
किनकि परमप्रभुको दृष्टि सारा पृथ्वीभरि जहाँसुकै दौडिरहन्छ, ताकि जसका हृदय उहाँप्रति समर्पित छन्, तिनीहरूका पक्षमा उहाँले आफैलाई बलियो देखाउन सक्नुभएको होस् । तर यस विषयमा तपाईंले मूर्खतासाथ काम गर्नुभयो । अबदेखि तपाईंले युद्ध गर्नुपर्नेछ ।”
10 Then Asa was angry with the seer, and put him in prison, burning with wrath against him because of this thing. And at the same time Asa was cruel to some of the people.
त्यसपछि आसा ती दर्शीसँग रिसाए । उनले तिनलाई थुनामा राखे, किनकि यस विषयमा थिनीसित उनी रिसाएका थिए । यसै समयमा, आसाले केही मानिसहरूमाथि अत्याचार गरे ।
11 Now the acts of Asa, first and last, are recorded in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.
हेर, आसाका सुरुदेखि अन्तसम्मका कामहरू यहूदा र इस्राएलका राजाहरूका पुस्तकमा लेखिएका छन् ।
12 In the thirty-ninth year of his rule, Asa had a very bad disease of the feet; but he did not go to the Lord for help in his disease, but to medical men.
आफ्नो राजकालको उनन्चालिसौँ वर्षमा आसालाई खुट्टामा रोग लाग्यो । तिनको त्यो रोग साह्रै गम्भीर भए तापनि तिनले परमप्रभुबाट सहायता खोजेनन्, तर वैद्यहरूको मात्र सल्लाह लिए ।
13 So Asa went to rest with his fathers, and death came to him in the forty-first year of his rule.
तब आफ्नो राजकालको एकचालिसौँ वर्षमा मरेर, तिनी आफ्ना पुर्खाहरूसित सुते ।
14 And they put him into the resting-place which he had made for himself in the town of David, in a bed full of sweet perfumes of all sorts of spices, made by the perfumer's art, and they made a great burning for him.
तिनको आफ्नै चिहानमा तिनलाई तिनीहरूले गाडे, जुन तिनले दाऊदको सहरमा आफ्नो निम्ति खन्न लगाएका थिए । उनलाई सुगन्धित वासनाहरू र अत्तरहरू बनाउने निपुण मानिसहरूद्वारा तयार गारिएको विभिन्न किसिमका मसलाहरू मिलाइएको अर्थीमा राखियो । अनि तिनीहरूले उनको सम्झनामा एउटा ठूलो आगो बाले ।
