1 Samuel 21
1 And David came to Nobe to Achimelech the priest: and Achimelech was astonished at David’s coming. And he said to him: Why art thou alone, and no man with thee?
पुजारी अहीमेलेकलाई भेट्न दाऊद नोबमा गए । अहीमेलेक डरले काम्दै दाऊदलाई भेट्न आए र तिनलाई भने, “तपाईं किन एक्लै हुनुहुन्छ र तपाईंसँग कोही पनि छैनन्?”
2 And David said to Achimelech the priest: The king hath commanded me a business, and said: Let no man know the thing for which thou art sent by me, and what manner of commands I have given thee: and I have appointed my servants to such and such a place.
दाऊदले पुजारी अहीमेलेकलाई भने, “राजाले मलाई एउटा काममा पठाउनुभएको छ र यस्तो हुकुम गर्नुभएको छ, 'जुन कामको बारेमा मैले तिमीलाई पठाएको छु र मैले तिमीलाई जे आज्ञा गरेको छु त्यसको बारेमा कसैलाई थाहा नहोस् ।' कुनै निश्चित ठाउँमा आउन मैले जवान मानिसहरूलाई निर्देशन दिएको छु ।
3 Now therefore if thou have any thing at hand, though it were but five loaves, give me, or whatsoever thou canst find.
अहिले तपाईंसँग के छ? पाँच वटा रोटी वा यहाँ जे छ सो मलाई दिनुहोस् ।”
4 And the priest answered David, saying: I have no common bread at hand, but only holy bread, if the young men be clean, especially from women?
पुजारीले दाऊदलाई जवाफ दिए र भने, “मसँग कुनै साधारण रोटी त छैन, तर ती जवान मानिहरू स्त्रीहरूबाट अलग बसेका छन् भने यहाँ पवित्र रोटी छ ।
5 And David answered the priest, and said to him: Truly, as to what concerneth women, we have refrained ourselves from yesterday and the day before, when we came out, and the vessels of the young men were holy. Now this way is defiled, but it shall also be sanctified this day in the vessels.
दाऊदले पुजारीलाई जवाफ दिए, “सदाझैं बाहिर म जाँदा हामीबाट तिन दिनदेखि स्त्रीहरू अलग गरिएको छन् । साधारण काममा जाँदा समेत मानिससित सम्बन्धित कुरालाई तिनीहरूले शुद्ध राखेका छन् । तिनीहरूसँग भएका कुरालाई आज तिनीहरूले अझ धेरै शुद्ध राखेका छन् ।”
6 The priest therefore gave him hallowed bread: for there was no bread there, but only the loaves of proposition, which had been taken away from before the face of the Lord, that hot loaves might be set up.
त्यसैले पुजारीले तिनलाई चढाइएको रोटी दिए । किनकि त्यहाँ उपस्थितिको रोटीबाहेक अरू कुनै रोटी थिएन, जुन रोटी परमप्रभुको सामुबाट हटाएर त्यसको सट्टामा तातो रोटी राखिएको थियो ।
7 Now a certain man of the servants of Saul was there that day, within the tabernacle of the Lord: and his name was Doeg, an Edomite, the chiefest of Saul’s herdsmen.
त्यस दिन शाऊलका सेवकहरूमध्ये एक जना परमप्रभुको सामु रोकिएको थियो । त्यसको नाउँ एदोमी दोएग थियो, जो शाऊलका गोठालाको प्रमुख थियो ।
8 And David said to Achimelech: Hast thou here at hand a spear, or a sword? for I brought not my own sword, nor my own weapons with me, for the king’s business required haste.
दाऊदले अहीमेलेकलाई भने, “के यहाँ कुनै भाला वा तरवार छैन? किनकि मैले न त मेरो तरवार न हतियार नै ल्याएँ, किनभने राजाको काम जरूरी थियो ।”
9 And the priest said: Lo, here is the sword of Goliath the Philistine whom thou slewest in the valley of Terebinth, wrapped up in a cloth behind the ephod: if thou wilt take this, take it, for here is no other but this. And David said: There is none like that, give it me.
पुजारीले भने, “तपाईंले एलाहको बेसीमा मार्नुभएको पलिश्ती गोल्यतको तरवार एपोद पछाडी कपडाले बेह्रेर राखिएको छ । तपाईंलाई त्यो लाने इच्छा हुन्छ भने त्यो लानुहोस्, किनकि यहाँ अरू कुनै हतियार छैन ।” दाऊदले भने, “त्यो जस्तो अरू कुनै तरवार छैन । त्यो मलाई दिनुहोस् ।”
10 And David arose and fled that day from the face of Saul: and came to Achis the king of Geth:
त्यस दिन दाऊद उठे र शाऊलदेखि भागे र गातका राजा आकीशकहाँ गए ।
11 And the servants of Achis, when they saw David, said to him: Is not this David the king of the land? Did they not sing to him in their dances, saying: Saul hath slain his thousands, and David his ten thousands?
आकीशका सेवकहरूले तिनलाई भने, “के यिनी देशका राजा दाऊद होइनन्? के तिनीहरूले नाचहरूमा एक-आपसमा यसो भनी गाएनन्, 'शाऊलले हजारौलाई मारेका छन्, र दाऊदले दसौं हजारलाई मारेका छन्?'”
12 But David laid up these words in his heart, and was exceedingly afraid at the face of Achis the king of Geth.
दाऊदले यस कुरालाई मन लिए र गातका राजा आकीशसँग धेरै डराए ।
13 And he changed his countenance before them, and slipt down between their hands: and he stumbled against the doors of the gate, and his spittle ran down upon his beard.
उनीहरूको सामु तिनले आफ्नो व्यवहार बदले र तिनीहरूकहाँ पागल भएको बाहाना गरे । तिनले प्रवेशद्वारको ढोकाहरूमा लेखे र आफ्नो र्याल दाह्रीभरि चुहाए ।
14 And Achis said to his servants: You saw the man was mad: why have you brought him to me?
तब आकीशले आफ्ना सेवकहरूलाई भने, “हेर, यो मानिस पागल भएको तिमीहरू देख्दैछौ । यसलाई तिमीहरूले मकहाँ किन ल्याएको हौ?
15 Have we need of madmen, that you have brought in this fellow, to play the madman in my presence? shall this fellow come into my house?
के मसँग पागल मानिसको कमी छ, ताकि तिमीहरूले यसलाई मेरो उपस्थितिमा त्यस्तै व्यवहार गर्नलाई ल्याएको हौ? के यो मानिस साँच्चै नै मेरो घरमा आउनेछ?”
