< Chronicles I 15 >

1 And [David] made for himself houses in the city of David, and he prepared a place for the ark of God, and made a tent for it.
दाऊदले आफ्‍नो निम्‍ति दाऊदको सहरमा भवनहरू बनाए । तिनले परमेश्‍वरका सन्‍दूकको निम्‍ति एउटा ठाउँ तयार गरे र त्‍यसको लागि एउटा पाल टाँगे ।
2 Then said David, It is not [lawful for any] to bear the ark of God, but the Levites; for the Lord has chosen them to bear the ark of the Lord, and to minister to him for ever.
तब दाऊदले भने, “परमेश्‍वरको सन्दूक लेवीहरूले मात्र बोकून, किनकि परमप्रभुको सन्‍दूक बोक्‍न र सदासर्वदा उहाँको सेवा गर्न परमप्रभुले तिनीहरूलाई नै चुन्‍नुभएको थियो ।”
3 And David assembled all Israel at Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of the Lord to the place which he [had] prepared for it.
त्यसपछि परमप्रभुको सन्‍दूकलाई त्‍यसको निम्‍ति तयार गरिएको ठाउँमा ल्‍याउनलाई दाऊदले सारा इस्राएललाई यरूशलेममा भेला गराए ।
4 And David gathered together the sons of Aaron the Levites.
दाऊदले हारूनका सन्‍तानहरू र लेवीहरूलाई एकसाथ भेला गराए ।
5 Of the sons of Caath; [there was] Uriel the chief, and his brethren, a hundred and twenty.
कहातका सन्‍तानबाट मुखिया उरीएल र तिनका आफन्तहरू १२० जना थिए ।
6 Of the sons of Merari; Asaia the chief, and his brethren, two hundred and twenty.
मरारीका सन्‍तानबाट मुखिया असायाह र तिनका आफन्तहरू २२० जना थिए ।
7 Of the sons of Gedson; Joel the chief, and his brethren, a hundred and thirty.
गेर्शोनका सन्‍तानबाट मुखिया योएल र तिनका आफन्तहरू १३० जना थिए ।
8 Of the sons of Elisaphat; Semei the chief, and his brethren, two hundred.
एलीजापानका सन्‍तानबाट मुखिया शमायाह र तिनका आफन्तहरू २०० जना थिए ।
9 Of the sons of Chebrom; Eliel the chief, and his brethren eighty.
हेब्रोनका सन्‍तानबाट एलीएल मुखिया र तिनका आफन्तहरू ८० जना थिए ।
10 Of the sons of Oziel; Aminadab the chief, and his brethren a hundred and twelve.
उज्‍जीएलका सन्‍तानबाट मुखिया अम्‍मीनादाब र तिनका आफन्तहरू ११२ जना थिए ।
11 And David called Sadoc and Abiathar the priests, and the Levites, Uriel, Asaia, and Joel, and Semaia, and Eliel, and Aminadab,
दाऊदले सादोक र अबियाथार पुजारीहरू, अनि लेवी उरीएल, असायाह, योएल, शमायाह, एलीएल र अम्‍मीनादाबलाई बोलाए ।
12 and said to them, You [are] the heads of the families of the Levites: sanctify yourselves, you and your brethren, and you shall carry up the ark of the God of Israel, [to the place] which I have prepared for it.
तिनले उनीहरूलाई भने, “तिमीहरू लेवीहरूका परिवारका मुखियाहरू हौ । तिमीहरू र तिमीहरूका दाजुभाइले आफूलाई पवित्र गर, ताकि परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्‍वरको सन्‍दूक राख्‍न मैले तयार पारेको ठाउँमा तिमीहरूले त्‍यसलाई ल्याउन सक्‍छौ ।
13 For because you were not [ready] at the first, our God made a breach upon us, because we sought him not according to the ordinance.
तिमीहरूले यसलाई पहिलो पल्‍ट बोकेनौ । यसैले परमप्रभु हाम्रा परमेश्‍वर हामीमाथि क्रोधित हुनुभयो, किनकि हामीले उहाँको खोजी गरेनौं वा उहाँको आज्ञा पालन गरेनौं ।”
14 So the priests and the Levites sanctified themselves, to bring up the ark of the God of Israel.
यसैले परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्‍वरको सन्‍दूकलाई तिनीहरूले ल्‍याउन सकून् भनेर पुजारीहरू र लेवीहरूले आफैलाई पवित्र गरे ।
15 And the sons of the Levites took the ark of God, (as Moses commanded by the word of God according to the scripture) upon their shoulders with staves.
यसैले परमप्रभुको वचनको अनुरण गरेर मोशाले आज्ञा दिएझैं लेवीहरूले परमेश्‍वरको सन्‍दूकलाई आ-आफ्‍ना काँधमा डन्‍डाले बोकेर ल्‍याए ।
16 And David said to the chiefs of the Levites, Set your brethren the singers with musical instruments, lutes, harps, and cymbals, to sound aloud with a voice of joy.
लेवीहरूका मुखियाहरूले आ-आफ्‍ना दाजुभाइलाई बाजा, सारङ्गी, वीणा र झ्‍यालीको साथ ठुलो स्वरमा र आफ्ना स्वरहरू उचालेर आनन्दका साथ सङ्गीत बजाउनको निम्ति नियुक्त गरून् भनी दाऊदले हुकुम दिए ।
17 So the Levites appointed Aeman the son of Joel; Asaph the son of Barachias [was one] of his brethren; and Aethan the son of Kisaeus was of the sons of Merari their brethren;
यसैले लेवीहरूले योएलका छोरा हेमान, र तिनका दाजुभाइमध्ये बेरेक्‍याहका छोरा आसापलाई नियुक्‍त गरे । तिनीहरूले मरारीहरूको सन्तानका आफन्त कूशायाहका छोरा एतानलाई पनि नियुक्‍त गरे ।
18 and with them their brethren of the second rank, Zacharias, and Oziel, and Semiramoth, and Jeiel, and Elioel, and Eliab, and Banaia, and Maasaia, and Matthathia, and Eliphena, and Makellia, and Abdedom, and Jeiel, and Ozias, the porters.
तिनीहरूसँगै दोस्रो दर्जाका आफन्तहरू थिएः जकरिया, याजीएल, शमीरामोत, यहीएल, उन्‍नी, एलीआब, बनायाह, मासेयाह, मत्तित्‍याह, एलीपलेहू, मिक्‍नेयाह, अनि ढोकाका सुरक्षा गार्डहरू ओबेद-एदोम र यीएल ।
19 And the singers, Aeman, Asaph, and Aethan, with brazen cymbals to make [a sound] to be heard.
सङ्गीतकार हेमान, आसाप र एतानलाई ठुलो आवाज निकाल्ने काँसका झ्‍यालीहरू बजाउन नियुक्त गरियो ।
20 Zacharias, and Oziel, Semiramoth, Jeiel, Oni, Eliab, Maasaeas, Banaeas, with lutes, on alaemoth.
जकरिया, अजीएल, शमीरामोत, यहीएल, उन्‍नी, एलीआब, मासेयाह र बनायाहले सारङ्गीमा अलामोत राग बजाए ।
21 And Mattathias, and Eliphalu, and Makenia, and Abdedom, and Jeiel, and Ozias, with harps of Amasenith, to make a loud noise.
मत्तित्‍याह, एलीपलेहू, मिक्‍नेयाह, ओबेद-एदोम, यीएल र अजज्‍याहले वीणामा शिमिनिथ राग बजाएर बाटोमा अगि लागे ।
22 And Chonenia chief of the Levites [was] master of the bands, because he was skilful.
लेवीहरूका अगुवा कनन्‍याह सङ्गीतका निर्देशक थिए, किनकि तिनी सङ्गीत गुरु थिए ।
23 And Barachia and Elcana [were] doorkeepers of the ark.
बेरेक्‍याह र एल्‍काना सन्‍दूकका गार्डहरू थिए ।
24 And Somnia, and Josaphat, and Nathanael, and Amasai, and Zacharia, and Banaea, and Eliezer, the priests, were sounding with trumpets before the ark of God: and Abdedom and Jeia [were] doorkeepers of the ark of God.
शबन्‍याह, योशापात, नतनेल, अमासै, जकरिया, बनायाह र एलीएजर पुजारीहरूले परमेश्‍वरका सन्‍दूकको अगि तुरही बजाउनुपर्थ्यो । ओबेद-एदोम र येहियाह पनि सन्‍दूकका गार्डहरू थिए ।
25 So David, and the elders of Israel, and the captains of thousands, went to bring up the ark of the covenant from the house of Abdedom with gladness.
यसैले दाऊद र इस्राएलका धर्म-गुरुहरू र हजार-हजारका फौजका कमाण्‍डरहरू ओबेद-एदोमको घरबाट परमप्रभुका करारको सन्‍दूक ल्‍याउनलाई रमाउँदै गए ।
26 And it came to pass when God strengthened the Levites bearing the ark of the covenant of the Lord, that they sacrificed seven calves and seven rams.
परमप्रभुका करारको सन्‍दूक बोक्‍ने लेवीहरूलाई परमेश्‍वरले सहायता गर्नुभएको हुनाले तिनीहरूले सात वटा साँढे र सात वटा भेडा बलिदान चढाए ।
27 And David [was] girded with a fine linen robe, and all the Levites [who were] bearing the ark of the covenant of the Lord, and the singers, and Chonenias the master of the band of singers; also upon David [there was] a robe of fine linen.
सन्‍दूक बोक्‍ने लेवीहरू, गायकहरू र गायकका मुखिया कनन्‍याहले जस्‍तै दाऊदले पनि असल मलमलका लुगा लाएका थिए । दाऊदले मलमलको एपोद लाएका थिए ।
28 And all Israel brought up the ark of the covenant of the Lord with shouting, and with the sound of a horn, and with trumpets, and with cymbals, playing loudly on lutes and harps.
यसरी सबै इस्राएलले आनन्दले कराउँदै सीङ र तुरहीहरूका आवाजमा र झ्‍याली, सारङ्गी र वीणा बजाउँदै परमप्रभुका करारको सन्‍दूक ल्याए ।
29 And the ark of the covenant of the Lord arrived, and came to the city of David; and Melchol the daughter of Saul looked down through the window, and saw king David dancing and playing: and she despised him in her heart.
तर जब परमप्रभुका करारको सन्‍दूक दाऊदको सहरमा ल्याइयो, शाऊलकी छोरी मीकलले झ्‍यालबाट बाहिर हेरिन् । उनले दाऊद राजालाई नाच्‍दै र उत्सव मनाउँदै गरेका देखिन् । तब उनले आफ्‍नो मनमा तिनलाई तुच्‍छ ठानिन्‌ ।
