1 Kings 22
1 And there passed three years without war between Syria and Israel.
अराम र इस्राएलको बिचमा युद्ध नभई तिन वर्ष बित्यो ।
2 And in the third year, Josaphat king of Juda came down to the king of Israel.
तेस्रो वर्षमा यहूदाका राजा यहोशापात इस्राएलका राजाकहाँ गए ।
3 (And the king of Israel said to his servants: Know ye not-that Ramoth Galaad is ours, and we neglect to take it out of the hand of the king of Syria?)
इस्राएलका राजाले आफ्ना अधिकारीहरूलाई भनेका थिए, “के रामोत-गिलाद हाम्रै हो भनी तिमीहरूलाई थाहा छ? तर अरामका राजाका हातबाट यसलाई लिन हामीले केही पनि गरिरहेका छैनौँ ।”
4 And he said to Josaphat: Wilt thou come with me to battle to Ramoth Galaad?
त्यसैले तिनले यहोशापातलाई भने, “के तपाईं युद्ध गर्नलाई मसितै रामोत-गिलादमा जानुहुन्छ?” यहोशापातले इस्राएलका राजालाई जवाफ दिए, “म तपाईंजस्तै हुँ, मेरा मानिस तपाईंका मानिसजस्तै हुन् र मेरा घोडाहरू तपाईंका घोडाहरू जस्तै हुन् ।”
5 And Josaphat said to the king of Israel: As I am, so art thou: my people and thy people are one: and my horsemen, thy horsemen. And Josaphat said to the king of Israel: Inquire, I beseech thee, this day, the word of the Lord.
यहोशापातले इस्राएलका राजालाई भने, “पहिले तपाईंले के गर्नुपर्छ भन्नाका लागि परमप्रभुको वचनबाट निर्देशन खोज्नुहोस् ।”
6 Then the king of Israel assembled the prophets, about four hundred men, and he said to them: Shall I go to Ramoth Galaad to fight, or shall I forbear? They answered: Go up, and the Lord will deliver it into the hand of the king.
तब इस्राएलका राजाले चार सय अगमवक्तालाई जम्मा गरी तिनीहरूलाई भने, “म रामोत-गिलादमा युद्ध गर्न जाऊँ कि नजाऊँ? तिनीहरूले जवाफ दिए, “आक्रमण गर्नुहोस्, किनकि परमप्रभुले यो राजाका हातमा सुम्पिदिनुहुने छ ।”
7 And Josaphat said: Is there not here some prophet of the Lord, that we may inquire by him?
तर यहोशापातले भने, “के यहाँ परमप्रभुका अर्का कुनै अगमवक्ता छैनन् जसबाट हामीले सल्लाह लिन सक्छौँ?”
8 And the king of Israel said to Josaphat: There is one man left, by whom we may inquire of the Lord: Micheas the son of Jemla; but I hate him, for he doth not prophesy good to me, but evil. And Josaphat said: Speak not so, O king.
इस्राएलका राजाले यहोशापातलाई भने, “एक जना मानिस छन् जसबाट हामीले मदतको लागि परमप्रभुबाट सल्लाह लिन सक्छौँ । तिनी यिम्लाका छोरा मीकाया हुन्, तर म तिनलाई घृणा गर्छु किनकि तिनले मेरो बारेमा कुनै असल कुरोको भविष्यवाणी गर्दैनन्, केवल खरावी मात्र बोल्छन् ।” तर यहोशापातले भने, “राजाले यस्तो भन्नुहुँदैन ।”
9 Then the king of Israel called an eunuch, and said to him: Make haste, and bring hither Micheas the son of Jemla.
तब इस्राएलका राजाले एक जना अधिकारीलाई बोलाई तिनलाई हुकुम गरे, “ठिक अहिले नै इम्लाका छोरा मीकायालाई ल्याउनू ।”
10 Then the king of Israel, and Josaphat king of Juda, sat each on his throne clothed with royal robes, in a court by the entrance of the gate of Samaria, and all the prophets prophesied before them.
इस्राएलका राजा आहाब र यहूदाका राजा यहोशापात राजकीय पोशाक पहिरेर सामरियाको मूल ढोकाको खुला ठाउँमा आ-आफ्नो सिंहासनमा बसिरहेका थिए, र सबै अगमवक्ताले तिनीहरूका सामु अगमवाणी बोल्दै थिए ।
11 And Sedecias the son of Chanaana made himself horns of iron, and said: Thus saith the Lord: With these shalt thou push Syria, till thou destroy it.
केनानका छोरा सिदकियाहले चाहिँ फलामका सिङहरू बनाएका थिए । तिनले भने, “परमप्रभु यसो भन्नुहुन्छ, 'अरामीहरू नष्ट नभएसम्म तिमीहरूले तिनीहरूलाई यसैले दण्ड दिनू' ।”
12 And all the prophets prophesied in like manner, saying: Go up to Ramoth Galaad, and prosper, for the Lord will deliver it into the king’s hands.
तब सबै अगमवक्ताले यसो भनी अगमवाणी बोले, “रामोत-गिलादमाथि आक्रमण गरी विजयी हुनुहोस् किनकि परमप्रभुले यो राजाको हातमा सुम्पिदिनुभएको छ ।”
13 And the messenger, that went to call Micheas, spoke to him, saying: Behold the words of the prophets with one month declare good things to the king: let thy word therefore be like to theirs, and speak that which is good.
मीकायालाई बोलाउन गएका सन्देशवाहकले तिनलाई भने, “अब हेर्नुहोस्, अगमवक्ताहरूका वचनहरूले एउटै मुखले राजालाई असल कुरा भन्छन् । तपाईंको वचन तिनीहरूको जस्तै होस् र असल कुराहरू भन्नुहोस् ।”
14 But Micheas said to him: As the Lord liveth, whatsoever the Lord shall say to me, that will I speak.
मीकायले जवाफ दिए, “परमप्रभुको नाउँमा शपथ खाएर म भन्दछु, कि परमप्रभुले मलाई जे भन्नुहुन्छ, म त्यही भन्ने छु ।”
15 So he came to the king, and the king said to him: Micheas, shall we go to Ramoth Galaad to battle, or shall we forbear? He answered him: Go up, and prosper, and the Lord shall deliver it into the king’s hands.
जब तिनी राजाकहाँ आए राजाले तिनलाई भने, “मीकाया, हामी युद्धको लागि रामोत-गिलादमा जाऊँ कि नजाऊँ?” मीकायाले तिनलाई जवाफ दिए, “आक्रमण गर्नुहोस् र विजयी हुनुहोस् । परमप्रभुले यो तपाईंको हातमा सुम्पिदिनुहुने छ ।”
16 But the king said to him: I adjure thee again and again, that thou tell me nothing but that which is true in the name of the Lord.
तब राजाले तिनलाई भने, “परमप्रभुको नाउँमा अरू कुरा नभनी साँचो कुरा मात्र भन्नू भनी म तिमीलाई कति पटक शपथ खान लगाऊँ?”
17 And he said: I saw all Israel scattered upon the hills, like sheep that have no shepherd: and the Lord said: These have no master: let every man of them return to his house in peace.
तब मीकायाले भने, “मैले गोठाला नभएका भेडाझैँ सारा इस्राएल पहाडहरूतिर तितर-बितर भएको देखेँ, र परमप्रभुले भन्नुभयो, 'तिनीहरूसित कुनै गोठालो छैन । हरेक मानिस शान्तिसित आफ्नै घरमा फर्कोस्' ।”
18 (Then the king of Israel said to Josaphat: Did I not tell thee, that he prophesieth no good to me, but always evil?)
त्यसैले इस्राएलका राजाले यहोशापातलाई भने, “तिनले मेरो बारेमा असल कुरा नभई केवल विपत्तिको बारेमा अगमवाणी बोल्छन् भनी के मैले तपाईंलाई भनेको होइन र?”
19 And he added and said: Hear thou therefore the word of the Lord: I saw the Lord sitting on his throne, and all the army of heaven standing by him on the right hand and on the left:
तब मीकायाले भने, “त्यसकारण परमप्रभुको वचन सुन्नुहोस्: मैले परमप्रभुलाई उहाँको सिंहासनमा विराजमान हुनुभएको अनि उहाँको दाहिने र देब्रे हातपट्टि उहाँनेर सबै स्वर्गीय सेना उभिरहेका देखेँ ।
20 And the Lord said: Who shall deceive Achab king of Israel, that he may go up, and fall at Ramoth Galaad? And one spoke words of this manner, and another otherwise.
परमप्रभुले भन्नुभयो, 'आहाब रामोत-गिलादमा उक्लेर गई त्यहाँ त्यसको पतन होस् भन्नाका लागि त्यसलाई कसले बहकाउने छ?’ एउटाले एउटा कुरा भन्यो र अर्कोचाहिँले अर्कै कुरा भन्यो ।
21 And there came forth a spirit, and stood before the Lord, and said: I will deceive him. And the Lord said to him: By what means?
तब एउटा आत्मा अगाडि बढी त्यो परमप्रभुको सामु उभियो । त्यसले भन्यो, 'म तिनलाई उक्साउने छु ।' परमप्रभुले त्यसलाई भन्नुभयो, 'कसरी?’
22 And he said: I will go forth, and be a lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets. And the Lord said: Thou shalt deceive him, and shalt prevail: a go forth, and do so.
आत्माले जवाफ दियो, 'म बाहिर जाने छु, र तिनका सबै अगमवक्ताका मुखमा झुट बोल्ने आत्मा बन्ने छु ।' परमप्रभुले भन्नुभयो, 'तैँल त्यसलाई बहकाउने छस्, र तँ सफल पनि हुने छस् । अब जा र त्यसै गर् ।'
23 Now therefore behold the Lord hath given a lying spirit in the mouth of all thy prophets that are here, and the Lord hath spoken evil against thee.
त्यसैले अब हेर्नुहोस्, परमप्रभुले तपाईंका यी सबै अगमवक्ताका मुखमा झुट बोल्ने आत्मा हालिदिनुभएको छ, र परमप्रभुले तपाईंको लागि विपत्तिको घोषणा गर्नुभएको छ ।”
24 And Sedecias the son of Chanaana came, and struck Micheas on the cheek, and said: Hath then the spirit of the Lord left me, and spoken to thee?
तब केनानका छोरा सिदकियाह माथि उक्लेर आई मीकायाको गालामा थप्पड हानेर भने, “तिमीसित बोल्न परमप्रभुका आत्मा मबाट कुनचाहिँ बाटो भएर जानुभयो त?”
25 And Micheas said: Thou shalt see in the day when thou shalt go into a chamber within a chamber to hide thyself.
मीकायाले भने, “हेर, तिमी भित्र कोठामा लुक्न जाँदा त्यस दिन तिमी आफैले देख्ने छौ ।”
26 And the king of Israel said: Take Micheas, and let him abide with Ammon the governor of the city, and with Joas the son of Amalech.
इस्राएलका राजाले आफ्ना अधिकारीलाई हुकुम दिए, “मीकायालाई समात्, अनि त्यसलाई सहरका शासक र मेरो छोरा योआशकहाँ लैजा ।”
27 And tell them: Thus saith the king: Put this man in prison, and feed him with bread of affliction, and water of distress, till I return in peace.
त्यसलाई भन्, ‘राजा भन्नुहुन्छः यो मानिसलाई झ्यालखानामा हाल्, र म सुरक्षितसाथ नफर्केसम्म त्यसलाई थोरै रोटी र थोरै पानी मात्र खुवाउनू' ।”
28 And Micheas said: If thou return in peace, the Lord hath not spoken by me. And he said: Hear, all ye people.
तब मीकायाले भने, “तपाईं सुरक्षितसाथ आउनुभयो भने परमप्रभुले मद्वारा बोल्नुभएको होइन ।” तब तिनले थपे, “हे सारा मानिस हो, यो कुरा सुन ।”
29 So the king of Israel, and Josaphat king of Juda went up to Ramoth Galaad.
त्यसैले इस्राएलका राजा आहाब र यहूदाका राजा यहोशापात रामोत-गिलादमा गए ।
30 And the king of Israel said to Josaphat: Take armour, and go into the battle, and put on thy own garments. But the king of Israel changed his dress, and went into the battle.
इस्राएलका राजाले यहोशापातलाई भने, “म भेष बद्लेर युद्धमा जाने छु, तर तपाईंले आफ्नो राजकीय पोशाक पहिरिनुहोस् ।” त्यसैले इस्राएलका राजाले भेष बद्ले, र तिनी युद्धमा गए ।
31 And the king of Syria had commanded the two and thirty captains of the chariots, saying: You shall not fight against any, small or great, but against the king of Israel only.
अरामका राजाले आफ्ना रथहरूका बत्तिस जना सेनापतिलाई यसो भनी आज्ञा दिएका थिए, “साना-ठुला जोसुकैलाई आक्रमण नगर्नू । बरु, इस्राएलका राजालाई मात्र आक्रमण गर्नू ।”
32 So when the captains of the chariots saw Josaphat, they suspected that he was the king of Israel, and making a violent assault they fought against him: and Josaphat cried out.
जब रथहरूका सेनापतिहरूले यहोशापातलाई देखे तिनीहरूले भने, “निश्चय नै यिनी इस्राएलका राजा हुन् ।” तिनलाई आक्रमण गर्न तिनीहरू फर्कंदा यहोशापात चिच्च्याए ।
33 And the captains of the chariots perceived that he was not the king of and they turned away from him.
तिनी इस्राएलका राजा होइनन् रहेछ भनी जब रथहरूका सेनापतिहरूले देखे तिनीहरू तिनको पिछा गर्नबाट फर्के ।
34 And a certain man bent his bow, shooting at a venture, and chanced to strike the king of Israel between the lungs and the stomach. But he said to the driver of his chariot: Turn thy hand, and carry me out of the army, for I am grievously wounded.
तर एक जना सेनापतिले जथाभावी काँड हाने, र त्यस काँडले इस्राएलका राजाको कवचको जोर्नीमा लाग्यो । तब आहाबले आफ्नो सारथीलाई भने, “फर्की, र मलाई युद्धबाट बाहिर लैजा, किनकि मलाई बेसरी चोट लागेको छ ।”
35 And the battle was fought that day, and the king of Israel stood in his chariot against the Syrians, and he died in the evening: and the blood ran out of the wound into the midst of the chariot.
त्यस दिन युद्ध झन् चर्कंदै गयो, र आफ्ना रथमा अडिएर राजाले अरामीहरूको सामना गरिरहे । साँझमा तिनी मरे । तिनको घाउबाट निस्केको रगतचाहिँ रथभित्रै बगिरहेको थियो ।
36 And the herald proclaimed through all the army before the sun set, saying: Let every man return to his own city, and to his own country.
तब सूर्य अस्ताउँदै गर्दा सेनाका बिचमा एउटा यस्तो आवाज फैलियो, “हरेक मानिस आ-आफ्नो सहरमा फर्केर जाओस्, र हरेक मानिस आ-आफ्नो बस्तीमा फर्केर जाओस् ।”
37 And the king died, and was carried into Samaria: and they buried the king in Samaria.
यसरी राजा आहाब मरे, र तिनलाई सामरियामा लगी त्यहीँ नै गाडियो ।
38 And they washed his chariot in the pool of Samaria, and the dogs licked up his blood, and they washed the reins, according to the word of the Lord which he had spoken.
तिनीहरूले रथलाई सामरियाको तलाउमा धोए, र परमप्रभुको वचनले घोषणा गरेझैँ कुकुरहरूले तिनको रगत चाटे (यहीँ नै वेश्याहरू नुहाउने गर्थे) ।
39 But the rest of the acts of Achab, and all that he did, and the house of ivory that he made, and all the cities that he built, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?
के आहाबले गरेका अरू कार्यहरू, तिनले बनाएको हस्ती-हाडको महलसाथै सबै सहरहरूको विषयमा इस्राएलका राजाहरूको इतिहासको पुस्तकमा लेखिएका छैनन् र?
40 So Achab slept with his fathers, and Ochozias his son reigned in his stead.
यसरी आहाब आफ्ना पित्रहरूसित सुते, र तिनको ठाउँमा तिनका छोरा अहज्याह राजा भए ।
41 But Josaphat the son of Asa began to reign over Juda in the fourth year of Achab king of Israel.
इस्राएलका राजा आहाबको चौथो वर्षमा आसाका छोरा यहोशापातले यहूदामाथि शासन गर्न थाले ।
42 He was five and thirty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned five and twenty years in Jerusalem: the name of his mother was Azuba the daughter of Salai.
यहोशापातले शासन गर्न थाल्दा तिनी पैँतिस वर्षका थिए, र तिनले यरूशलेममा पच्चिस वर्ष राज्य गरे । तिनकी आमाको नाउँ अजूबा थियो, जो शिल्हीकी छोरी थिइन् ।
43 And he walked in all the way of Asa his father, and he declined not from it: and he did that which was right in the sight of the Lord. Nevertheless he took not away the high places: for as Set the people offered sacrifices and burnt incense in the high places.
तिनी आफ्ना पिता आसाका मार्गमा हिँडे । तिनी तीबाट फर्केनन् । तिनले परमप्रभुको दृष्टिमा जे ठिक छ, त्यही गरे । तथापि डाँडाका थानहरू भने हटाइएनन् । मानिसहरूले डाँडाका थानहरूमा अझै पनि बलिदान चढाउँदै थिए, र धूप बाल्दै थिए ।
44 And Josaphat had peace with the king of Israel.
यहोशापात इस्राएलका राजासित शान्तिमा रहे ।
45 But the rest of the acts of Josaphat, and his works which he did, and his batties, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Juda?
के यहोशापातका अरू कार्यहरू, तिनले देखाएका शक्ति र कसरी तिनले युद्ध लडे भन्ने विषयमा यहूदाका राजाहरूको इतिहासको पुस्तकमा लेखिएका छैनन् र?
46 And the remnant also of the effeminate, who remained in the days of Asa his father, he took out of the land.
तिनका पिता आसाको समयसम्म बाँकी रहेका झुटो धर्मसम्बन्धी वेश्याहरूलाई तिनले देशबाट हटाए ।
47 And there was then no king appointed in Edom.
एदोममा कुनै राजा थिएन, तर त्यहाँ सहायकले शासन गर्थ्यो ।
48 But king Josaphat made navies on the sea, to sail into Ophir for gold: but they could not go, for the ships were broken in Asiongaber.
यहोशापातले समुद्रमा आवात-जावत गर्ने जहाजहरू बनाए । ती सुनको लागि ओपीरमा जानुपर्थ्यो, तर एस्योन-गेबेरमा ध्वंश भएको कारण ती जान सकेनन् ।
49 Then Ochozias the ton of Achab said to Josaphat: Let my servants go with thy servants in the ships. And Josaphat would not.
तब आहाबका छोरा अहज्याहले यहोशापातलाई भने, “यी जहाजहरूमा मेरा अधिकारीहरूलाई तपाईंका अधिकारीहरूसँगै जान दिनुहोस् ।” तर यहोशापातले अनुमति दिएनन् ।
50 And Josaphat slept with his fathers. and was buried with them in the city of David his father: and Joram his son reigned in his stead.
यहोशापात आफ्ना पित्रहरूसित सुते, र तिनीहरूसितै आफ्ना पुर्खा दाऊदको सहरमा गाडिए । तिनको ठाउँमा तिनका छोरा यहोराम राजा भए ।
51 And Ochozias the son of Achab began to reign over Israel in Samaria, in the seventeenth gear of Josaphat king of Juda, and he reigned over Israel two years,
यहूदाका राजा यहोशापातको सत्रौँ वर्षमा आहाबका छोरा अहज्याहले सामरियामा बसेर इस्राएलमाथि शासन गर्न थाले, र तिनले इस्राएलमाथि दुई वर्ष राज्य गरे ।
52 And he did evil in the sight of the Lord, and walked in the way of his father and his mother, and in the way of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, who made Israel to sin.
तिनले परमप्रभुको दृष्टिमा जे खराब छ, त्यही गरे, र तिनका बुबाआमाको चालमा हिँडे अनि इस्राएललाई पाप गर्न लगाउने नबातका छोरा यारोबामको मार्गमा हिँडे ।
53 He served also Baal, and worshipped him, and provoked the Lord the God of Israel, according to all that his father had done.
तिनले आफ्ना पिताले गरेझैँ बालको सेवा गरे, त्यसको पुजा गरे अनि इस्राएलका परमेश्वर परमप्रभुलाई रिस उठाए ।
