Kings IV 10
1 And Achaab [had] seventy sons in Samaria. And Ju wrote a letter, and sent it into Samaria to the rulers of Samaria, and to the elders, and to the guardians of [the children of] Achaab, saying.
सामरियामा आहाबको घरानाका सत्तरी जना सन्तान थिए । येहूले चिठीहरू लेखे र ती सामरियामा यिजरेलका शासकहरू, धर्म-गुरुहरू र आहाबका सन्तानका अभिभावककहाँ यसो भनेर पठाए,
2 Now then, as soon as this letter shall have reached you, whereas [there are] with you the sons of your master, and with you chariots and horses, and strong cities, and arms,
“तिमीहरूका मालिकका सन्तानहरू तिमीहरूसित छन्, र तिमीहरूसित रथहरू, घोडाहरू र किल्लाबन्दी गरिएको सहर हतियार छन् । त्यसैले यो चिठी तिमीहरूले प्राप्त गर्ने बित्तिकै,
3 do ye accordingly look out the best and fittest among your master's sons, and set him on the throne of his father, and fight for the house of your master.
तिमीहरूका मालिका सन्तानमध्ये सबैभन्दा उत्तम र योग्यलाई छान र तिनलाई आफ्ना पिताको सिंहासनमा राख, अनि तिमीहरूका मालिकका राजकीय वंशको निम्ति लडाइँ गर ।”
4 And they feared greatly, and said, Behold, two kings stood not before him: and how shall we stand?
तर तिनीहरू त्रसित भए र आपसमा भने, “हेर, येहूको सामु दुई जना राजा त खडा हुन सकेनन् । त्यसैले हामी कसरी खडा हुन सक्छौँ?”
5 So they that were over the house, and they that were over the city, and the elders and the guardians, sent to Ju, saying, We also [are] thy servants, and whatsoever thou shalt say to us we will do; we will not make [any] man king: we will do that which is right in thine eyes.
तब दरबारका रेखदेख मानिसहरू, सहरका प्रमुखहरू र धर्म-गुरुहरू अनि बालबालिकका अभिभावकहरूले येहूलाई यसो भनेर समाचार पठाए, “हामी तपाईंका सेवकहरू हौँ । तपाईंले हामीलाई जे आज्ञा दिनुहुन्छ, त्यो हरेक कुरा हामी गर्नेछौँ । हामी कुनै मानिसलाई राजा बनाउनेछैनौँ । तपाईंको दृष्टिमा जे ठिक लाग्छ, त्यही गर्नुहोस् ।”
6 And Ju wrote them a second letter, saying, If ye [are] for me, and hearken to my voice, take the heads of the men your master's sons, and bring [them] to me at this time to-morrow in Jezrael. Now the sons of the king were seventy men; these great men of the city brought them up.
तब येहूले तिनीहरूलाई यसो भनेर दोस्रो पटक चिठी लेखे, “तिमीहरू मेरो पक्षमा छौ र तिमीहरूले मेरो कुरा सुन्छौ भने तिमीहरूले आफ्ना मालिकका सन्तानका शिरहरू लिनुपर्छ र भोली यसै बेला यिजरेलमा मकहाँ आउनुपर्छ ।” त्यस बेला राजाका सत्तरी जना सन्तानहरू आफूलाई हुर्काउने सहरका महत्त्वपूर्ण मानिसहरूसँगै थिए ।
7 And it came to pass, when the letter came to them, that they took the king's sons, and slew them, [even] seventy men, and put their heads in baskets, and sent them to him at Jezrael.
त्यसैले जब तिनीहरूकहाँ चिठी आयो, तब तिनीहरूले राजाका छोराहरूलाई समाते र सत्तरी जनालाई नै मारे, तिनीहरूका शिरहरू टोकरीहरूमा राखे, र ती यिजरेलमा येहूकहाँ पठाए ।
8 And a messenger came and told [him], saying, They have brought the heads of the king's sons. And he said, Lay them [in] two heaps by the door of the gate until the morning.
एक जना सन्देशवाहक येहूकहाँ यसो भन्न आयो, “तिनीहरूले राजाका छोराहरूका शिरहरू ल्याएका छन् ।” त्यसैले तिनले भने, “बिहानसम्म तिनलाई मूल ढोकामा दुईवटा थुप्रो लगाएर राख्नू ।”
9 And the morning came, and he went forth, and stood, and said to all the people, Ye are righteous: behold, I conspired against my master, and slew him: but who slew all these?
बिहान येहू बाहिर निस्के र खडा भए र सबै मानिसहरूलाई भने, “तिमीहरू निर्दोष छौ । हेर, मैले मेरा मालिकको विरुद्धमा षड्यन्त्र गरें र तिनलाई मारेँ, तर यी सबैलाई कसले मारे?
10 See now that there shall not fall to the ground anything of the word of the Lord which the Lord spoke against the house of Achaab: for the Lord has performed all that he spoke of by the hand of his servant Eliu.
अब तिमीहरूले निश्चय नै बुझ्नुपर्छ कि आहाबको घरानाको सम्बन्धमा बोलिएको परमप्रभुको वचनको कुनै पनि भाग खेर जाने छैन किनकि परमप्रभुले आफ्ना सेवक एलियाद्वारा बोल्नुभएअनुसार गर्नुभएको छ ।”
11 And Ju smote all that were left of the house of Achaab in Jezrael, and all his great men, and his acquaintance, and his priests, so as not to leave him [any] remnant.
त्यसैले येहूले यिजरेलमा आहाबका घरानाका बाँकी रहेका सबै जना, तिनका मुख्य मानिसहरू, तिनका नजिकका मित्रहरू र पुजारीहरू कसैलाई पनि नछडी सबैलाई मारे ।
12 And he arose and went to Samaria, [and] he [was] in the house of sheep-shearing in the way.
तब येहू उठे र आफ्नो बाटो लागे । तिनी सामरियामा गए । तिनी गोठालोको बेथ-एकेदमा आइपुग्दा,
13 And Ju found the brethren of Ochozias king of Juda, and said, Who [are] ye? And they said, We [are] the brethren of Ochozias, and we have come down to salute the sons of the king, and the sons of the queen.
तिनले यहूदाका राजा अहज्याहका दाजुभाइलाई भेटे । येहूले तिनीहरूलाई भने, “तिमीहरू को हौ?” तिनीहरूले जवाफ दिए, “हामी अहज्याहका दाजुभाइहरू हौँ, र हामी राजाका सन्तान र रानी ईजेबेलका सन्तानलाई अभिवादन गर्न जाँदैछौँ ।”
14 And he said, Take them alive. And they slew them at the shearing-house, forty and two men: he left not a man of them.
येहूले आफ्ना मानिसहरूलाई भने, “तिनीहरूलाई जिउँदै समात ।” त्यसैले तिनीहरूले उनीहरूलाई जिउँदै समाते र बयालिस जना पुरुष सबैलाई बेथ-एकेदको कुवामा मारे । तिनीहरूमध्ये एक जनालाई पनि तिनले जिउँदो छोडेनन् ।
15 And he went thence and found Jonadab the son of Rechab [coming] to meet him; and he saluted him, and Ju said to him, Is thy heart right with my heart, as my heart [is] with thy heart? And Jonadab said, It is. And Ju said, If it is then, give me thy hand. And he gave him his hand, and he took him up to him into the chariot.
येहू त्यहाँबाट गएपछि तिनले रेकाबका छोरा यहोनादाब आफूलाई भेट्न आइरहेका देखे । येहूले तिनलाई अभिवादन गरे र तिनलाई भने, “मेरो ह्रदय तिमीतर्फ भएझैँ तिम्रो ह्रदय मतर्फ छ?” यहोनादाबले जवाफ दिए, “हजुर छ।” येहूले भने, “छ भने मलाई तिम्रो हात देऊ।” त्यसैले तिनले येहूलाई आफ्नो हात दिए, येहूले यहोनादाबलाई आफूसितै रथमा लगे ।
16 And he said to him, Come with me, and see me zealous for the Lord. And he caused him to sit in his chariot.
येहूले भने, “मसँग आऊ र परमप्रभुको निम्ति मेरो जोसलाई हेर ।” त्यसैले तिनले यहोनादाबलाई आफ्नो रथमा आफूसँगै लगे ।
17 And he entered into Samaria, and smote all that were left of Achaab in Samaria, until he had utterly destroyed him, according to the word of the Lord, which he spoke to Eliu.
जब तिनी सामरियामा आए, तब जसरी परमप्रभुले पहिले नै आहाबको घरानालाई एलियाद्वारा भन्नुभएको थियो त्यसरी नै येहूले सामरियामा बाँकी रहेका तिनका सबै सन्तानलाई मारे, र आहाबको राजकीय वंशको एउटैलाई पनि छाडेनन् ।
18 And Ju gathered all the people, and said to them, Achaab served Baal a little; Ju shall serve him much.
तब येहूले सारा मानिसलाई एकसाथ जम्मा गरे र तिनीहरूलाई भने, “आहाबले त बालको थोरै मात्र सेवा गरे, तर येहूले त झन् बढी त्यसको सेवा गर्नेछ ।
19 Now then do all [ye] the prophets of Baal call all his servants and his priests to me; let not a man be wanting: for I have a great sacrifice [to offer] to Baal; every one who shall be missing shall die. But Ju did it in subtilty, that he might destroy the servants of Baal.
त्यसकारण बालका सबै अगमवक्ता, त्यसका सबै आराधक र सबै पुजारीलाई मकहाँ बोलाओ । कोही पनि नछोडियोस् किनकि बाललाई चढाउन मसित एउटा ठुलो बलिदान छ । जो आउँदैन, त्यो बाँच्नेछैन ।” तर बालका आराधकहरूलाई मार्न येहूले छलपूर्वक यसो गरेका थिए ।
20 And Ju said, Sanctify a solemn festival to Baal, and they made a proclamation.
येहूले भने, “बालको निम्ति एउटा सभा बोलाओ ।” त्यसैले तिनीहरूको यसको घोषणा गरे ।
21 And Ju sent throughout all Israel, saying, Now then let all [Baal's] servants, and all his priests, and all his prophets [come], let none be lacking: for I am going to offer a great sacrifice; whosoever shall be missing, shall not live. So all the servants of Baal came, and all his priests, and all his prophets: there was not one left who came not. And they entered into the house of Baal; and the house of Baal was filled from one end to the other.
तब येहूले सारा इस्राएलभरि समाचार पठाए, र बालका आराधकहरू सबै आए । नआएको मानिस एउटै पनि थिए । तिनीहरू बालको मन्दिरमा आए, र मन्दिर एउटा कुनादेखि अर्को कुनासम्म भरिएको थियो ।
22 And he said to the man who was over the house of the wardrobe, Bring forth a robe for all the servants of Baal. And the keeper of the robes brought forth to them.
येहूले पुजारीको वस्त्र-भण्डारको रेखदेख गर्ने मानिसलाई भने, “बालका सबै आराधकका लागि वस्त्र ल्याऊ ।” त्यसैले ती मानिसले तिनीहरूकहाँ वस्त्रहरू ल्याए ।
23 And Ju and Jonadab the son of Rechab entered into the house of Baal, and said to the servants of Baal, Search, and see whether there is among you any of the servants of the Lord, or only the servants of Baal, by themselves.
रेकाबका छोरा यहोनादाबसित येहू बालको मन्दिरभित्र गए, र तिनले बालका आराधकहरूलाई भने, “यहाँ परमप्रभुका कुनै पनि सेवक नहोऊन्, तर बालका आराधकहरू मात्र होऊन् भन्ने कुरामा निश्चित होऊ ।”
24 And he went in to offer sacrifices and whole-burnt-offerings; and Ju set for himself eighty men without, and said, Every man who shall escape of the men whom I bring into your hand, the life of him [that spares him] shall go for his life.
तब तिनीहरू बलिहरू र होमबलि चढाउन भित्र गए । येहूले असि जना मानिसलाई छानेका थिए जो बाहिर खडा थिए । तिनले तिनीहरूलाई भने, “मैले तिमीहरूका हातमा ल्याएको कुनै पनि मानिस भाग्यो भने, जसले भगाउँछ, त्यो भाग्नेको प्राणको सट्टा त्यसको प्राण लिइनेछ ।”
25 And it came to pass, when he had finished offering the whole-burnt-offering, that Ju said to the footmen and to the officers, Go ye in and slay them; let not a man of them escape. So they smote them with the edge of the sword, and the footmen and the officers cast [the bodies] forth, and went to the city of the house of Baal.
तब येहूले होमबलि चढाएर सिद्ध्याउने बित्तिकै तिनले पहरेदार र सेनापतिहरूलाई भने, “भित्र जाओ र गएर तिनीहरूलाई मार । कोही बाहिर नआओस् ।” त्यसैले तिनीहरूले तरवारको धारले उनीहरूलाई मारे, अनि पहरेदार र कप्तानहरूले तिनीहरूलाई बाहिर फाले र तिनीहरू बालको मन्दिरको भित्री कोठामा गए ।
26 And they brought out the pillar of Baal, and burnt it.
तिनीहरूले बालको मन्दिरको भित्र राखिएको ढुङ्गाको मूर्तिलाई घिसारेर बाहिर ल्याए, र ती आगो लगाइदिए ।
27 And they tore down the pillars of Baal, and made his house a draught-house until this day.
त्यसपछि तिनीहरूले बालको खम्बाहरू भँचिदिए र बालको मन्दिरलाई भत्काइदिए, अनि मानिसहरूले त्यसबाट शौचालय बनाए जसलाई मानिसहरूले आजसम्म प्रयोग गर्छन् ।
28 So Ju abolished Baal out of Israel.
यसरी येहूले इस्राएलबाट बालको पुजालाई नष्ट पारे ।
29 Nevertheless Ju departed not from following the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, who led Israel to sin: [these were] the golden heifers in Baethel and in Dan.
तर नबातका छोरा यारोबामका पापहरू जसद्वारा तिनले इस्राएललाई पाप गर्न लगाए, अर्थात् बेथेल र दानमा सुनका बाछाहरूका पुजालाई येहूले छाडेनन् ।
30 And the Lord said to Ju, Because of all thy deeds wherein thou hast acted well in doing that which was right in my eyes, according to all things which thou hast done to the house of Achaab [as they were] in my heart, thy sons to the fourth generation shall sit upon the throne of Israel.
त्यसैले परमप्रभुले येहूलाई भन्नुभयो, “परमप्रभुको दृष्टिमा जे ठिक थियो, तैँले त्यही गरेको कारणले र आहाबको घरानालाई मेरो ह्रदयमा भएअनुसार गरेको हुनाले तेरा सन्तानहरूको चार पुस्तासम्म इस्राएलको सिंहासनमा बस्नेछन् ।”
31 But Ju took no heed to walk in the law of the Lord God of Israel with all his heart: he departed not from following the sins of Jeroboam, who made Israel to sin.
तर आफ्ना सारा ह्रदयले इस्राएलका परमप्रभु परमेश्वरको व्यवस्थामा हिँड्न कुरालाई येहूले वास्ता गरेनन् । इस्राएललाई पाप गर्न लगाउने यारोबामका पापहरूबाट तिनी फर्केनन् ।
32 In those days the Lord began to cut Israel short; and Azael smote them in every coast of Israel;
ती दिनमा परमप्रभुले इस्राएलको क्षेत्रफल घटाउन थाल्नुभयो, र हजाएलले इस्राएलका सिमानाहरूमा इस्राएलीलाई पराजित गरे,
33 from Jordan eastward all the land of Galaad belonging to the Gadites, of Gaddi and that of Ruben, and of Manasses, from Aroer, which is on the brink of the brook of Arnon, and Galaad and Basan.
यर्दन नदीको पूर्वतिर भएको गिलाद, गादी, रूबेनी र मनश्शे सबै क्षेत्र, अर्नोन उपत्यकाको ओएरदेखि गिलाद र बाशानसम्मै कब्जा गरे ।
34 And the rest of the acts of Ju, and all that he did, and all his might, and the wars wherein he engaged, [are] not these things written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
येहू र तिनका सबै काम र तिनको शक्तिको बारेमा के इस्राएलका राजाहरूको इतिहासको पुस्तकमा लेखिएका छैनन् र?
35 And Ju slept with his fathers; and they buried him in Samaria: and Joachaz his son reigned in his stead.
येहू आफ्ना पर्खाहरूसित सुते, र तिनीहरूले तिनलाई सामरियामा गाडे । तब तिनको ठाउँमा तिनका छोरा यहोआहाज राजा भए ।
36 And the days which Ju reigned over Israel [were] twenty-eight years in Samaria.
येहूले सामरियामा बसेर इस्राएलमाथि अट्ठाइस वर्ष राज्य गरे ।
