Kings I 20
1 And David fled from Navath in Rama, and comes into the presence of Jonathan; and he said, What have I done, and what [is] my fault, and wherein have I sinned before your father, that he seeks my life?
तब दाऊद रामाको नैयोतबाट भागे र जोनाथनकहाँ आए र भने, “मैले के गरेको छु? मेरो अपराध के हो? तपाईंको बुबाको सामु मैले गरेको पाप हो, जसको कारणले उहाँले मेरो ज्यान लिन खोज्नुहुन्छ?”
2 And Jonathan said to him, Far be it from you: you shall not die: behold, my father will not do any thing great or small without discovering it to me; and why should my father hide this matter from me? This thing is not [so].
जोनाथनले दाऊदलाई भने, “यो कुरा दूर होस् । तपाईं मर्नुहुन्न । मेरो बुबाले मलाई नभनी सानो वा ठुलो कुनै पनि कुरा गर्नुहुन्न । मेरो बुबाले यो कुरा किन लुकाउनुहुन्छ? यो यस्तो होइन?”
3 And David answered Jonathan, and said, Your father knows surely that I have found grace in your sight, and he said, Let not Jonathan know this, lest he refuse his consent: but [as] the Lord lives and your soul lives, as I said, [the space] is filled up between me and death.
तापनि दाऊदले फेरि शपथ खाए र भने, “मैले तपाईंको दृष्टिमा निगाह पाएको छु भनेर तपाईंको बुबाले राम्ररी थाहा पाउनुभएको छ । उहाँले भन्नुभएको छ, 'जोनाथनले यो कुरा थाहा पाउनुहुँदैन नत्र ऊ दुःखित हुनेछ ।' तर जस्तो परमप्रभु जीवित हुनुहुन्छ र तपाईं जीवित हुनुहुन्छ, म र मृत्यु बिच एक कदम मात्र छ ।”
4 And Jonathan said to David, What does your soul desire, and what shall I do for you.
तब जोनाथनले दाऊदलाई भने, “तपाईंले मलाई जे भन्नुहुन्छ, म तपाईंको निम्ति त्यही गर्नेछु ।”
5 And David said to Jonathan, Behold, to-morrow [is] the new moon, and I shall not on any account sit down to eat, but you shall let me go, and I will hide in the plain till the evening.
दाऊदले जोनाथनलाई भने, “भोलि औंसी हो, म राजासँग खान बस्नुपर्छ । तर मलाई जान दिनुहोस्, ताकि तेस्रो दिनको साँझसम्म म आफै खेतमा लुक्न सकूँ ।
6 And if your father do in anyway enquire for me, then shall you say, David earnestly asked leave of me to run to Bethleem his city, for [there is] there, a yearly sacrifice for all the family.
तपाईंका बुबाले म नहुँदा खिन्न महसुस गर्नुभयो भने, यसो भन्नुहोस्, 'दाऊदले आफ्नो सहर बेथलेहेममा जान पाऊँ भनी तिनले मसँग ज्यादै बिन्ती गरेर विदा मागे । किनभने त्यहाँ सबै कुलको वार्षिक बलिदान हुँदैछ ।'
7 If he shall say thus, Well, — [all is] safe for your servant: but if he shall answer harshly to you, know that evil is determined by him.
उहाँले, 'ठिकै छ' भन्नुहुन्छ भने, तपाईंको दासलाई शान्ति हुनेछ । तर उहाँ रिसले चुर हुनुभयो भने, उहाँले कुनै खराब गर्ने अठोट गर्नुभएको छ भनी जान्नुहोस् ।
8 And you shall deal mercifully with your servant; for you have brought your servant into a covenant of the Lord with yourself: and if there is iniquity in your servant, kill me yourself; but why do you thus bring me to your father?
यसकारण आफ्नो दासमाथि दायपूर्वक व्यवहार गर्नुहोस् । किनभने तपाईंले आफ्नो दासलाई आफूसँगै परमप्रभुको करारमा ल्याउनुभएको छ । तर ममा कुनै पाप छ भने, मलाई तपाईं आफैले मार्नुहोस् । किनकि मलाई किन तपाईंको बुबाकहाँ ल्याउनुहुन्छ?”
9 And Jonathan said, That be far from you: for if I surely know that evil is determined by my father to come upon you, although it should not be against your cities, I will tell you.
जोनाथनले भने, “यो कुरा तपाईंबाट दूर रहोस्! मेरा बुबाले तपाईंमाथि हानि ल्याउने अठोट गर्नुभएको छ भनी मैले थाहा पाएँ भने, के म तपाईंलाई भन्दिनँ र?”
10 And David said to Jonathan, Who can tell me if your father should answer roughly?
तब दाऊदले जोनाथनलाई भने, “तपाईंका बुबाले तपाईंलाई कतै खस्रो किसिमको जवाफ दिनुभयो भने मलाई कसले भनिदिने?”
11 And Jonathan said to David, Go, and abide in the field. And they went out both into the field.
जोनाथनले दाऊदलाई भने, “आउनुहोस्, हामी खेतमा जाऔं ।” त्यसैले तिनीहरू दुवै जना खेतमा गए ।
12 And Jonathan said to David, the Lord God of Israel knows that I will sound my father as I have an opportunity, three several times, and, behold, [if good] should be determined concerning David, and I do not send to you to the field,
जोनाथनले दाऊदलाई भने, “परमप्रभुको इस्राएलको परमेश्वर नै साक्षी हुनुभएको होस् । जब भोलि वा पर्सि मैले मेरो बुबालाई प्रश्न गरेपछि, हेर्नुहोस्, दाऊदप्रति शुभेच्छा छ भने, के म तपाईंकहाँ कसैलाई पठाउने र त्यो कुराको जानकारी तपाईंलाई दिनेछैन र?
13 God do so to Jonathan and more also: as I shall [also] report the evil to you, and make it known to you, and I will let you go; and you shall depart in peace, and the Lord shall be with you, as he was with my father.
मेरो बुबाले तपाईंलाई हानि गर्ने इच्छा गर्नुभएको रहेछ, र तपाईं शान्तिमा जान सक्नुभएको होस् भनी मैले तपाईंलाई थाहा दिइनँ, र तपाईंलाई पठाइनँ भने, परमप्रभुले जोनाथनलाई यसै र अझ बढी गर्नुभएको होस् । परमप्रभु जसरी मेरो बुबासँग हुनुहुन्छ, त्यसरी नै उहाँ तपाईंसँग रहनुभएको होस् ।
14 And if indeed I continue to live, then shall you deal mercifully with me; and if I indeed die,
म जीवित रहें भने के तपाईंले मलाई परमप्रभुको करारको विश्वस्तता देखाउनुहुनेछैन र ताकि म मर्नेछैन?
15 you shall not withdraw your mercy from my house for ever: and if you do not, when the Lord cuts off the enemies of David each from the face of the earth,
परमप्रभुले दाऊदका शत्रुहरूलाई पृथ्वीको सतहबाट निमिट्यान्न पार्नुहुँदा पनि मेरो घरानाबाट तपाईंको करारको विश्वस्तता नहटाउनुहोला ।”
16 [should it happen] that the name of Jonathan be discovered by the house of David, then let the Lord seek out the enemies of David.
त्यसैले जोनाथनले दाऊदको घरानासँग करार बाँधे र भने, “परमप्रभुले दाऊदका शत्रुहरूबाट लेख लिनुभएको होस् ।”
17 And Jonathan swore yet again to David, because he loved the soul of him that loved him.
जोनाथानले दाऊदप्रतिको तिनको प्रेमले गर्दा फेरि तिनले शपथ खाए, किनभने तिनलाई आफ्नो प्राणलाई झैं उनले प्रेम गरे ।
18 And Jonathan said, To-morrow [is] the new moon, and you will be enquired for, because your seat will be observed as vacant.
तब जोनाथनले तिनलाई भने, “भोलि औंसी हो । तपाईं नहुँदा खिन्न महसुस हुनेछ, किनभने तपाईंको आसन खाली हुनेछ ।
19 And you shall stay three days, and watch an opportunity, and shall come to your place where you may hide yourself in the day of your business, and you shall wait by that stone Ezel.
जब तपाईं तिन दिन लुकेपछि, तुरुन्तै तल जानुहोस् र यो कुरा सुरु भयो भने तपाईं लुक्नुभएकै ठाउँमा आउनुहोस्, अनि एजेल ढुङ्गाको छेउमा बस्नुहोस् ।
20 And I will shoot three arrows, aiming them at a mark.
मैले कुनै कुरालाई तारो बनाएर हानेझैं, म यसको छेउमा तिन वटा काँडहरू हान्नेछु ।
21 And behold, I [will] send a lad, saying, Go find me the arrow.
तब म आफ्नो जवान केटोलाई यसो भन्नेछु र पठाउनेछु, 'जा र काँडहरू टिपेर ले ।'मैले त्यो जवानलाई, 'हेर्, काँडहरू तेरो यतापट्टि छन्, ति लिएर आइज” तब आउनुहोस् । किनभने परमप्रभु जीवित हुनुभएझैं त्यहाँ तपाईंको निम्ति सुरक्षा हुनेछ, र हानि हुनेछैन ।
22 If I should expressly say to the lad, The arrow [is] here, and on this side of you, take it; [then] come, for it is well with you, and there is no reason [for fear, as] the Lord lives: [but] if I should say thus to the young man, The arrow [is] on that side of you, and beyond; go, for the Lord has sent you away.
“तर मैले त्यो जवानलाई यसो भनें, 'हेर्, काँडहरू तेरो उतापट्टि छन्,' तब तपाईं आफ्नो बाटो लाग्नुहोस्, किनकि परमप्रभुले तपाईंलाई टाढा पठाउनुभएको छ ।”
23 And as for the word which you and I have spoken, behold, the Lord [is] witness between me and you for ever.
म र तपाईंले गरेको सहमतिको बारेमा, हेर्नुहोस्, परमप्रभु तपाईं र मेरो बिचमा सदासर्वदा साक्षी हुनुहुन्छ' ।”
24 So David hides himself in the field, and the [new] month arrives, and the king comes to the table to eat.
त्यसैले दाऊदले आफूलाई खेतमा लुकाए । जब औंसी आयो, तब राजा खानलाई बसे ।
25 And he sat upon his seat as in former times, even on his seat by the wall, and he went before Jonathan; and Abenner sat on one side of Saul, and the place of David was empty.
सदाझैं राजा आफ्नो आसनमा भित्ताको छेउमा बसे । जोनातन खडा भए, र अबनेर शाऊलको छेउमा बसे । तर दाऊदको ठाउँ खाली थियो ।
26 And Saul said nothing on that day, for he said, It seems to have fallen out that he is not clean, because he has not purified himself.
तापनि शाऊलले त्यस दिन केही पनि भनेनन्, किनभने तिनले सोचे, “तिनलाई केही भएको छ । तिनी शुद्ध छैनन् । निश्चय नै तिनी शुद्ध छैनन् ।”
27 And it came to pass on the morrow, on the second day of the month, that the place of David was empty; and Saul said to Jonathan his son, Why has not the son of Jessae attended both yesterday and today at the table?
तर औंसीको भोलि पल्ट दाऊदको ठाउँ खाली थियो । शाऊलले जोनाथनलाई भने, “यिशैका छोरा खानलाई हिजो वा आज किन आएको छैन्?”
28 And Jonathan answered Saul, and said to him, David asked leave of me to go as far as Bethleem his city;
जोनाथनले शाऊललाई जवाफ दिए, “दाऊदले बेथलेहेम जानलाई मसँग ज्यादै बिन्ती गरेर अनुमती मागे ।
29 and he said, Let me go, I pray you, for we have a family sacrifice in the city, and my brethren have sent for me; and now, if I have found grace in your eyes, I will even go over and see my brethren: therefore he is not present at the table of the king.
तिनले भने, “कृपया मलाई जान दिनुहोस् । किनकि हाम्रो परिवारको सहरमा एउटा बलिदान छ, र म त्यहाँ हुनुपर्छ भनी मेरो दाजुले मलाई आदेश दिएका छन् । मैले तपाईंको दृष्टिमा निगाह पाएको छु भने, कृपया मलाई जान र आफ्ना दाजुहरूलाई भेट्न दिनुहोस् ।' यसकारण तिनी राजासँग खानलाई टेबलमा आएका छैनन् ।”
30 And Saul was exceedingly angry with Jonathan, and said to him, You son of traitorous damsels! for do I not know that you are an accomplice with the son of Jessae to your same, and to the shame of your mother's nakedness?
तब जोनाथनको विरुद्धमा शाऊल रिस दन्कियो र तिनले उनलाई भने, “तँ पथभ्रष्ट र विद्रोही स्त्री को छोरो! तैंले यिशैका छोरालाई आफ्नै शर्म र आफ्नो आमाको नग्नताको शर्मको निम्ति रोजेको छस् भन्ने के मलाई थाहा छैन?
31 For so long as the son of Jessae lives upon the earth, your kingdom shall not be established: now then send and take the young man, for he shall surely die.
किनकि यिशैका छोरा पृथ्वीमा रहेसम्म, न तँ रहेनेछस् न त तेरो राज्य नै रहनेछ । अब कसैलाई पठा र त्यसलाई मकहाँ लिएर आइज, किनकि त्यो मरिनैपर्छ ।”
32 And Jonathan answered Saul, Why is he to die? What has he done?
जोनाथनले आफ्नो बुबा शाऊललाई जवाफ दिए, “के कराणले तिनलाई मारिनुपर्ने? तिनले के गरेका छन्?”
33 And Saul lifted up his spear against Jonathan to kill him: so Jonathan knew that this evil was determined on by his father to kill David.
तब शाऊलले तिनलाई मार्न आफ्नो भालाले हाने । यसरी आफ्नो बुबाले दाऊदलाई मार्न अठोट गरेका कुरा जोनाथनलाई पक्का थाहा भयो ।
34 And Jonathan sprang up from the table in great anger, and did not eat bread on the second [day] of the month, for he grieved bitterly for David, because his father determined [on mischief] against him.
जोनाथन रिसले आगो भएर टेबलबाट उठे र महिनाको दोस्रो दिन कुनै खाने कुरा खाएनन्, किनकि दाऊदको निम्ति तिनी शोकित भए, किनकि तिनका बुबाले उनको अनादर गरेका थिए ।
35 And morning came, and Jonathan went out to the field, as he appointed [to do] for a signal to David, and a little boy [was] with him.
भोलिपल्ट बिहान दाऊदलाई भनेको समयमा भेट गर्न जोनाथन खेतमा गए र एक जना जवान मानिस तिनीसँगै थियो ।
36 And he said to the boy, Run, find me the arrows which I shoot: and the boy ran, and [Jonathan] shot an arrow, and sent it beyond [him].
तिनले आफ्नो जवान मानिसलाई भने, “दौडी र मैले हानेका काँडहरू खोजेर ले ।” त्यो जवान मानिस जाँदैगर्दा तिनले उसको पछिल्तिर काँड हाने।
37 And the boy came to the place where the arrow was which Jonathan shot; and Jonathan cried out after the lad, and said, The arrow [is] on that side of you and beyond you.
जब जोनाथने हानेका काँडहरू भएको ठाउँमा जवान मानिस पुग्यो, तब जोनातनले त्यो जवान मानिसलाई बोलाए र भने, “के काँड तेरो पछिल्तिर छैनन् र?”
38 And Jonathan cried out after his boy, saying, Make all speed, and stay not. And Jonathan's boy gathered up the arrows, and brought the arrows to his master.
तब जोनाथनले त्यो जवान मानिसलाई भने, “छिटो गर्, छिटो गर्, नबस् । त्यसैले जोनाथनको जवान केटाले काँडहरू जम्मा गर्यो र आफ्नो मालिककहाँ आयो ।
39 And the boy knew nothing, only Jonathan and David [knew].
तर त्यो जवान मानिसलाई अरू कुनै कुरा थाहा थिएन । जोनाथन र दाऊदले मात्र सो कुरा जान्दथे ।
40 And Jonathan gave his weapons to his boy, and said to his boy, Go, enter into the city.
जोनाथनले आफ्ना हतियारहरू आफ्नो जवान मानिस दिए र त्यसलाई भने, “जा, ति सहरमा लैजा ।”
41 And when the lad went in, then David arose from the south, and fell upon his face, and did obeisance to him three times, and they kissed each other, and wept for each other, for a great while.
त्यो जवान मानिस जानेबित्तिकै, दाऊद ढिस्कोको पछाडिबाट उठे, जमिनमा घोप्टो परे र शिर झुकाएर तिन पटक दण्डवत गरे । तिनीहरूले एकआपसमा चुम्बन गरे र सँगसँगै रोए, अनि दाऊद झन् धेरै रोए ।
42 And Jonathan said to David, Go in peace, and as we have both sworn in the name of the Lord, saying, The Lord shall be witness between me and you, and between my seed and your seed for ever—[even so let it be]. And David arose and departed, and Jonathan went into the city.
जोनाथनले दाऊदलाई भने, “शान्तिसँग जानुहोस्, किनभने, 'तपाईं र म, तपाईंका सन्तान र मेरा सन्तान बिचमा परमप्रभु सदाको निम्ति हुनुभएको होस्' भनी परमप्रभुको नाउँमा हामी दुवैले शपथ खाएका छौं ।” तब दाऊद उठे, र गए र जोनाथन सहरमा फर्के ।
