< 2 Kings 1 >
1 After the death of Ahab, Moab made itself free from the authority of Israel.
आहाबको मृत्युपछि मोआब इस्राएलको विरुद्धमा बागी भयो ।
2 Now Ahaziah had a fall from the window of his room in Samaria, and was ill. And he sent men, and said to them, Put a question to Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron, about the outcome of my disease, to see if I will get well or not.
तब अहज्याह सामरियामा माथिल्लो कोठाको झ्यालबाट तल खसे र घाइते भए । यसैले तिनले सन्देशवाहकहरू पठाए र तिनीहरूलाई भने, “जाओ र यस चोटबाट म निको हुन्छु कि हुन्न एक्रोनको देवता बाल-जिबबलाई सोध ।”
3 But the angel of the Lord said to Elijah the Tishbite, Go now, and, meeting the men sent by the king of Samaria, say to them, Is it because there is no God in Israel, that you are going to get directions from Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron?
तर परमप्रभुका दूतले तिश्बी एलियालाई भने, “उठ, र सामरियाका राजाका सन्देशवाहकहरूलाई भेट्न जाऊ, अनि तिनीहरूलाई सोध, 'के इस्राएलमा कुनै परमेश्वर नभएको हुनाले तिमीहरू एक्रोनको देवता बाल-जिबबसित सल्लाह लिन जाँदैछौ?
4 Give ear then to the words of the Lord: You will never again get down from the bed on to which you have gone up, but death will certainly come to you. Then Elijah went away.
त्यसकारण परमप्रभु भन्नुहुन्छ, “तँ उक्लेको त्यो माथिको ओछ्यानबाट तँ तल आउनेछैनस् । बरु, तँ निश्चय नै मर्नेछस्' ।” तब एलिया गए ।
5 And the men he had sent came back to the king; and he said to them, Why have you come back?
जब सन्देशवाहकहरू अहज्याहकहाँ फर्के तब तिनले तिनीहरूलाई सोधे, “तिमीहरू किन फर्केका छौ?”
6 And they said to him, On our way we had a meeting with a man who said, Go back to the king who sent you and say to him, The Lord says, Is it because there is no God in Israel that you send to put a question to Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron? For this reason, you will not come down from the bed on to which you have gone up, but death will certainly come to you.
तिनीहरूले तिनलाई भने, “एक जना मानिस हामीलाई भेट्न आए जसले हामीलाई भने, 'तिमीहरूलाई पठाउने राजाकहाँ फर्के जाऊ र तिनलाई भन, “परमप्रभु यसो भन्नुहुन्छः 'के इस्राएलमा कुनै परमेश्वर नभएको हुनाले तिमीहरू एक्रोनको देवता बाल-जिबबसित सल्लाह लिन जाँदैछौ? त्यसकारण तँ उक्लेको त्यो माथिको ओछ्यानबाट तँ तल आउनेछैनस् । बरु, तँ निश्चय नै मर्नेछस्' ।”
7 And he said to them, What sort of a man was it who came and said these words to you?
अहज्याहले आफ्ना सन्देशवाहकहरूलाई भने, “तिमीहरूलाई भेट्न आउने र यी कुराहरू भन्ने मानिस कस्तो किसिमको थियो?”
8 And they said in answer, He was a man clothed in a coat of hair, with a leather band about his body. Then he said, It is Elijah the Tishbite.
तिनीहरूले तिनलाई जवाफ दिए, “तिनले रौँका लुगा लगाएका थिए, र आफ्नो कम्मरमा छालाको पेटी बाँधेका थिए ।” त्यसैले राजाले भने, “तिनी त तिश्बी एलिया हुन् ।”
9 Then the king sent to him a captain of fifty with his fifty men; and he went up to him where he was seated on the top of a hill, and said to him, O man of God, the king has said, Come down.
तब राजाले पचास जना सिपाहीसँगै एक जना कप्तानलाई एलियाकहाँ पठाए । कप्तान एलियाकहाँ गए जहाँ तिनी डाँडाको टाकुरामा बसिरहेका थिए । कप्तानले तिनलाई भने, “हे परमेश्वरका मानिस, राजाले भन्नुभएको छ, 'तल आउनुहोस्' ।”
10 And Elijah in answer said to the captain of fifty, If I am a man of God, may fire come down from heaven on you and on your fifty men, and put an end to you. Then fire came down from heaven and put an end to him and his fifty men.
एलियाले कप्तानलाई भने, “म परमेश्वरका मानिस हुँ भने स्वर्गबाट आगो झरोस् र तपाईं र तपाईंका पचास जना मानिसलाई भस्म पारोस् ।” तब स्वर्गबाट आगो झर्यो र तिनलाई र तिनका पचास जना मानिसलाई भस्म पार्यो ।
11 Then the king sent another captain of fifty with his fifty men; and he said to Elijah, O man of God, the king says, Come down quickly.
फेरि राजा अहज्याहले अर्का कप्तानलाई पचास जना सिपाहीसहित एलियाकहाँ पठाए । यी कप्तानले पनि एलियालाई भने, “हे परमेश्वरका मानिस, राजा भन्नुहुन्छ, 'झट्टै तल आउनुहोस्' ।”
12 And Elijah in answer said, If I am a man of God, may fire come down from heaven on you and on your fifty men, and put an end to you. And the fire of God came down from heaven, and put an end to him and his fifty men.
एलियाले तिनीहरूलाई भने, “म परमेश्वरका मानिस हुँ भने स्वर्गबाट आगो झरोस् र तपाईं र तपाईंका पचास जना मानिसलाई भस्म पारोस् ।” फेरि स्वर्गबाट परमेश्वरको आगो झर्यो र तिनलाई र तिनका पचास जना मानिसलाई भस्म पार्यो ।
13 Then he sent a third captain of fifty with his fifty men; and the third captain of fifty went up, and falling on his knees before Elijah, requesting mercy of him, said, O man of God, let my life and the life of these your fifty servants be of value to you.
तथापि राजाले पचास जना योद्धाको तेस्रो समूह पठाए । यो कप्तान माथि उक्ले, एलियाको सामु आफ्ना घुँडा टेके र तिनले विनम्रतापूर्वक बिन्ती गरेर भने, “हे परमेश्वरका मानिस, म तपाईंसँग बिन्ति गर्छु, कि मेरो जीवन र तपाईंका यी पचास जना दासका जीवन तपाईंको दृष्टिमा मूल्यवान् होऊन् ।
14 For fire came down from heaven and put an end to the first two captains of fifty and their fifties; but now let my life be of value in your eyes.
वास्तवमा स्वर्गबाट आगो झर्यो र यस अघिका दुई जना कप्तानलाई तिनीहरूका मानिसहरूसँगै भस्म पार्यो, तर मेरो जीवन तपाईंको दृष्टिमा मूल्यवान् होस् ।”
15 Then the angel of the Lord said to Elijah, Go down with him; have no fear of him. So he got up and went down with him to the king.
परमप्रभुका दूतले एलियालाई भने, “त्योसँगै तल जा । त्योदेखि नडरा ।” त्यसैले एलिया उठे र त्योसँगै राजाकहाँ गए ।
16 And he said to him, This is the word of the Lord: Because you sent men to put a question to Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron, for this reason you will never again get down from the bed on to which you have gone up, but death will certainly come to you.
पछि एलियाले अहज्याहलाई भने, “परमप्रभु यसो भन्नुहुन्छ, 'तैँले एक्रोनको देवता बाल-जिबबसित सल्लाह लिन सन्देशवाहकहरू पठाएको छस् । जानकारी लिनको लागि इस्राएलमा कुनै परमेश्वर नभएको हुनाले त्यसो गरेको हो? यसैले तँ उक्लेको त्यो माथिको ओछ्यानबाट तँ तल आउनेछैनस् । तँ निश्चय नै मर्नेछस्' ।”
17 So death came to him, as the Lord had said by the mouth of Elijah. And Jehoram became king in his place in the second year of the rule of Jehoram, son of Jehoshaphat, king of Judah; because he had no son.
यसरी एलियाले बोलेको परमप्रभुको वचनअनुसार अहज्याह मरे । अहज्याहको कुनै छोरो नभएको हुनाले यहूदाका राजा यहोशापातका छोरा यहोरामको दोस्रो वर्षमा योरामले तिनको ठाउँमा राज्य गर्न थाले ।
18 Now the rest of the acts of Ahaziah, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Israel?
अहज्याहका सम्बन्धमा भएका अरू कुराहरूका बारेमा इस्राएलका राजाहरूको इतिहासको पुस्तकमा लेखिएका छैनन् र?
