2 Chronicles 25
1 Amaziah was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he was ruling in Jerusalem for twenty-nine years; his mother's name was Jehoaddan of Jerusalem.
अमस्याहले राज्य गर्न सुरु गर्दा तिनी पच्चिस वर्षका थिए । तिनले यरूशलेममा उनन्तिस वर्ष राज्य गरे । तिनकी आमाको नाउँ यरूशलेमकी यहोअदीन थियो ।
2 He did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, but his heart was not completely true to the Lord.
तिनले परमप्रभुको दृष्टिमा जे असल थियो सो गरे, तर पूरा हृदयले होइन ।
3 Now when he became strong in the kingdom, he put to death those men who had taken the life of the king his father.
अनि यस्तो भयो, जब तिनको शासन राम्ररी स्थापित भयो, तब तिनले आफ्ना बुबा राजाको हत्या गरेका अधिकारीहरूलाई मारे ।
4 But he did not put their children to death, for he kept the orders of the Lord recorded in the book of the law of Moses, saying, The fathers are not to be put to death for their children or the children for their fathers, but a man is to be put to death for the sin which he himself has done.
तर तिनले मोशाका व्यवस्थाको पुस्तकमा लेखिएको यसो भन्ने परमप्रभुको आज्ञालाई पालन गरेर तिनीहरूका छोराछोरीलाई चाहिं मारेनन्, “बुबाहरूलाई छोराछोरीका निम्ति र छोराछोरीलाई बुबाहरूका निम्ति नमार्नू । बरू, हरेक मानिसले आफ्नै पापका निम्ति मर्नुपर्छ ।”
5 Then Amaziah got all Judah together and put them in order by their families, even all Judah and Benjamin, under captains of thousands and captains of hundreds: and he had those of twenty years old and over numbered, and they came to three hundred thousand of the best fighting-men, trained for war and in the use of the spear and the body-cover.
यसको साथै अमस्याहले यहूदाका मानिसहरूलाई एकसाथ भेला गरे र तिनीहरूका पुर्ख्यौली घरानाअनुसार सारा यहूदा र बेन्यामीनका हजार र सयका कमाण्डरहरूका अधीनमा राखिदिए । तिनले बीस वर्ष पुगेका र त्यसभन्दा बढी उमेरका मानिको गन्ती गरे, र तिनीहरूको सङ्ख्या तीन लाख रोजाइमा परेका मानिस, सबै लडाइँ गर्न र भाला र ढाल चलाउन सक्नेहरू भएका तिनले थाहा पाए ।
6 And for a hundred talents of silver, he got a hundred thousand fighting-men from Israel.
तिनले एक सय चाँदीका तोडा तिरेर इस्राएलबाट एक लाख लडाकु योद्धाहरू भाडामा लिए ।
7 But a man of God came to him, saying, O king, let not the army of Israel go with you; for the Lord is not with Israel, that is, the children of Ephraim.
तर परमेश्वरका एक जना मानिस तिनीकहाँ आए र भने, “ए राजा, इस्राएलका फौजलाई तपाईंसँग नलानुहोस्, किनकि परमप्रभु इस्राएलसँग हुनुहुन्न— एफ्राइमको कोही पनि मानिससँग हुनुहुन्न ।
8 But go yourself, and be strong in war; God will not let you go down before those who are fighting against you; for God has power to give help or to send you down before your attackers.
तर तपाईं त्यसरी गए पनि, र साहसी र बलियो भए पनि शत्रुहरूका सामु परमेश्वरले तपाईंलाई परास्त गर्नुहुनेछ, किनकि सहायता गर्ने, र परास्त गर्ने शक्ति परमेश्वरसँग छ ।”
9 Then Amaziah said to the man of God, But what is to be done about the hundred talents which I have given for the armed band of Israel? And the man of God in answer said, God is able to give you much more than this.
अमस्याहले परमेश्वरका मानिसलाई भने, “तर इस्राएली फौजलाई मैले दिएको त्यो एक सय तोडाको बारेमा हामी के गरौं?” परमेश्वरका मानिसले जवाफ दिए, “परमप्रभुले तपाईंलाई त्योभन्दा धेरै बढी दिन सक्षम हुनुहुन्छ ।”
10 So Amaziah, separating the armed band which had come to him from Ephraim, sent them back again; which made them very angry with Judah, and they went back burning with wrath.
यसैले एफ्राइमबाट आफूकहाँ आएका फौजलाई अमस्याहले अलग गरे । तिनीहरूलाई तिनले फेरि घर पठाइदिए । यसैले यहूदाप्रतिको तिनीहरूको क्रोध धेरै भयो, र रीसले चूर भएर तिनीहरू घर फर्के ।
11 Then Amaziah took heart, and went out at the head of his people and came to the Valley of Salt, where he put to death ten thousand of the children of Seir;
अमस्याहले साहस गरे र नूनको उपत्यकामा जानलाई आफ्ना मानिसहरूको नेतृत्व गरे । त्यहाँ तिनले सेइरका दश हजार मानिसहरूलाई पराजित गरे ।
12 And ten thousand more the children of Israel took living, and made them go up to the top of the rock, pushing them down from the top of the rock so that their bodies were broken by the fall.
यहूदाका फौजले अरू दश हजार मानिसलाई जीवितै लिएर गए । तिनीहरूले उनीहरूलाई एउटा चट्टानको टाकुरामा लगे र त्यहाँबाट तिनीहरूलाई तल खसालिदिए ताकि तिनीहरू सबै टुक्राटुक्रा भए ।
13 But the men of the band which Amaziah sent back and did not take with him to the fight, made attacks on the towns of Judah from Samaria to Beth-horon, putting to death three thousand of their people and taking away a great store of their goods.
तर अमस्याहले आफूसित युद्धमा नजाउन् भनी फिर्ता पठाइदिएका फौजले यहूदाका सामरियादेखि बेथ-होरोनसम्मका सहरहरू आक्रमण गरे । तिनीहरूले तीन हजार जना मानिसलाई मारे, र धेरै लूटका माल लिएर गए ।
14 Now when Amaziah came back from the destruction of the Edomites, he took the gods of the children of Seir and made them his gods, worshipping them and burning offerings before them.
अब यस्तो भयो, एदोमीहरूलाई परास्त गरेर फर्केपछि अमस्याहले सेइरका मानिसहरूका देवताहरू ल्याए र ती आफ्नै देवताका रूपमा स्थापना गरे । तिनीहरूका सामु तिनी घोप्टो परे, र तिनीहरूलाई धूप बाले ।
15 And so the wrath of the Lord was moved against Amaziah, and he sent a prophet to him, who said, Why have you gone after the gods of the people who have not given their people salvation from your hands?
यसैले अमस्याहको विरुद्धमा परमप्रभुको क्रोध दन्कियो । उहाँले एक जना अगमवक्ता पठाउनुभयो, जसले भने, “आफ्नै भक्तहरूलाई त तपाईंको हातदेखि बचाउन नसक्ने देवताहरूको खोजी तपाईं किन गर्नुभयो?”
16 But while he was talking to him the king said to him, Have we made you one of the king's government? say no more, or it will be the cause of your death. Then the prophet gave up protesting, and said, It is clear to me that God's purpose is your destruction, because you have done this and have not given ear to my words.
यस्तो भयो, जब अगमवक्ता तिनीसित बोलिरहेका थिए, तब राजाले तिनलाई भने, “के हामीले तिमीलाई राजाका सल्लाहकार बनएका छौं र? चूप लाग । तँ किन मारिने?” तब अगमवक्ता चूप लागे र भने, “मलाई थाहा छ कि तपाईंले यो काम गरेर मेरो सल्लाह नसुन्नुभएको हुनाले परमेश्वरले तपाईंलाई नाश गर्ने निर्णय गर्नुभएको छ ।”
17 Then Amaziah, king of Judah, acting on the suggestion of his servants, sent to Joash, the son of Jehoahaz, the son of Jehu, king of Israel, saying, Come, let us have a meeting face to face.
त्यसपछि यहूदाका राजा अमस्याहले आफ्ना सल्लाहकारहरूसँग सल्लाह लिए र इस्राएलका राजा येहूका नाति, यहोआहाजका छोरा येहोआशकहाँ यसो भनेर दूतहरू पठाए, “आऊ, युद्धमा हामी एक-अर्काको सामना गरौं ।”
18 And Joash, king of Israel, sent to Amaziah, king of Judah, saying, The thorn-tree in Lebanon sent to the cedar in Lebanon, saying, Give your daughter to my son for a wife: and a beast from the woodland in Lebanon went by, crushing the thorn under his feet.
तर इस्राएलका राजा येहोआशले यहूदाका राजा अमस्याहका दूतहरूलाई यसो भनेर फिर्ता पठाए, “लेबनानको एउटा सिउँडीले लेबनानकै एउटा देवदारुलाई यसो भनेर एउटा सन्देश पठायो, ‘तिम्री छोरी मेरा छोरालाई पत्नीको रूपमा देऊ,' तर लेबनानको एउटा जङ्गली पशु त्यताबाट भएर गयो र त्यो सिउँडीलाई कुल्चिदियो ।
19 You say, See, I have overcome Edom; and your heart is lifted up with pride: now keep in your country; why do you make causes of trouble, putting yourself, and Judah with you, in danger of downfall?
तिमीले भनेका छौ ‘हेर, मैले एदोमलाई हराएको छु,’ र तिम्रो हृदयले तिमीलाई माथि उचालेको छ । आफ्नो विजयमा गर्व गर, तर आफ्नै घरमा बस, आफ्नै र यहूदाको पनि आफूसँगै पतन ल्याउन तिमी किन खतरामा पर्छौ?”
20 But Amaziah gave no attention; and this was the purpose of God, so that he might give them up into the hands of Joash, because they had gone after the gods of Edom.
तर अमस्याहले सुनेनन्, किनभने यो घटना परमेश्वरबाट भएको थियो ताकि उहाँले यहूदाका मानिसहरूलाई तिनीहरूका शत्रुहरूका हातमा दिन सक्नुभएको होस्, किनभने, तिनीहरूले एदोमका देवताहरूबाट सल्लाह लिएका थिए ।
21 And so Joash, king of Israel, went up; and he and Amaziah, king of Judah, came face to face at Beth-shemesh in Judah.
यसैले इस्राएलका राजा येहोआशले आक्रमण गरे । तिनी र यहूदाका राजा अमस्याह यहूदाको बेथ-शेमेशमा आमने सामने भएर युद्ध लडे ।
22 And Judah was overcome before Israel, and they went in flight, every man to his tent.
इस्राएलद्वारा यहूदा पराजित भयो, र हरेक मानिस आआफ्नो घरमा भाग्यो ।
23 And Joash, king of Israel, made Amaziah, king of Judah, the son of Joash, the son of Jehoahaz, prisoner at Beth-shemesh, and took him to Jerusalem; and he had the wall of Jerusalem pulled down from the doorway of Ephraim to the doorway in the angle, four hundred cubits.
इस्राएलका राजा येहोआशले अहज्याहका नाति, योआशका छोरा यहूदाका राजा अमस्याहलाई बेथ-शेमेशमा गिरफ्तार गरे । तिनले उनलाई यरूशलेममा ल्याए र तिनले एफ्राइमको ढोकादेखि कुने-ढोकासम्म चार सय हात लामो यरूशलेमको पर्खाल भत्काइदिए ।
24 And he took all the gold and silver and all the vessels which were in the house of the Lord, under the care of Obed-edom, and all the wealth from the king's house, as well as those whose lives would be the price of broken faith, and went back to Samaria.
तिनले ओबेद-एदोमको जिम्मामा राखिदिएका, परमप्रभुको मन्दिरमा भेट्टाइएका सबै सुन र चाँदी र सबै भाँडाहरू, र राजमहलमा भएका बहुमूल्य थोकहरू र कैदीहरूलाई पनि लगे, र सामरियामा फर्के ।
25 Amaziah, son of Joash, king of Judah, went on living for fifteen years after the death of Joash, the son of Jehoahaz, king of Israel.
इस्राएलका राजा यहोआहाजका छोरा येहोआशको मृत्युपछि यहूदाका राजा योआशका छोरा अमस्याह पन्ध्र वर्षसम्म बाँचे ।
26 Now the rest of the acts of Amaziah, first and last, are they not recorded in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel?
अमस्याहका बारेमा भएका अरू घटनाहरू सुरुदेखि अन्त्यसम्म यहूदा र इस्राएलका राजाहरूका इतिहासको पुस्तकमा लेखिएका छैनन् र?
27 Now from the time when Amaziah gave up worshipping the Lord, they made secret designs against him in Jerusalem; and he went in flight to Lachish: but they sent to Lachish after him and put him to death there.
अमस्याहले परमप्रभुको अनुसरण गर्नबाट तर्केर गएको दिनदेखि नै तिनीहरूले यरूशलेममा तिनको विरुद्ध षड्यन्त्र गर्न सुरु गरे । तिनी लाकीशमा भागे, तर तिनीहरूले लाकीशमा तिनको पछिपछि मानिसहरू पठाए र तिनलाई त्यहीं मारे ।
28 And they took his body on horseback and put it into the earth with his fathers in the town of David.
तिनीहरूले तिनको लाश घोडामा बोकाएर यरूशलेममा ल्याए र तिनलाई आफ्ना पुर्खाहरूसित यहूदाको सहरमा गाडे ।
