2 Kings 19
1 And when king Ezechias heard these words, he rent his garments, and covered himself with sackcloth, and went into the house of the Lord.
जब राजा हिजकियाले तिनीहरूको कुरा सुने, तब तिनले आफ्ना लुगा च्याते, भाङ्ग्रा लगाए र परमप्रभुको मन्दिरभित्र गए ।
2 And he sent Eliacim, who was over the house, and Sobna the scribe, and the ancients of the priests covered with sackcloths, to Isaias the prophet the son of Amos,
तिनले राजदरबारका निरिक्षक एल्याकीम, सचिव शेब्ना र पुजारीहरूका धर्म-गुरुहरू सबैलाई भाङ्ग्रा लगाएर आमोजका छोरा अगमवक्ता यशैयाकहाँ पठाए ।
3 And they said to him: Thus saith Ezechias: This day is a day of tribulation, and of rebuke, and of blasphemy: the children are come to the birth, and the woman in travail hath not strength.
तिनीहरूले तिनलाई भने, “हिजकिया भन्नुहुन्छ, 'जसरी बच्चा जन्मन लाग्छ तर तिनीहरूमा जन्मिने बल हुँदैन, त्यसरी नै यो दिन कष्ट, हप्की र अनादरको दिन भएको छ ।
4 It may be the Lord thy God will hear all the words of Rabsaces, whom the king of the Assyrians his master hath sent to reproach the living God, and to reprove with words, which the Lord thy God hath heard: and do thou offer prayer for the remnants that are found.
सायद परमप्रभु तपाईंका परमेश्वरले प्रधान सेनापतिका सबै कुरा सुन्नुहुनेछ, जसलाई तिनका मालिक अश्शूरका राजाले जीवित परमेश्वरलाई विरोध गर्न पठाएका छन्, र परमप्रभु तपाईंका परमेश्वरले सुन्नुभएको कुराले उहाँले तिनलाई हप्काउनुहुनेछ । अब यहाँ अझै बाँचेकाहरुका निम्ति तपाईंले प्रार्थना गर्नुहोस् ।”
5 So the servants of king Ezechias came to Isaias.
त्यसैले राजा हिजकियाका सेवकहरू यशैयाकहाँ आए,
6 And Isaias said to them: Thus shall you say to your master: Thus saith the Lord: Be not afraid for the words which thou hast heard, with which the servants of the king of the Assyrians have blasphemed me.
र यशैयाले तिनीहरूलाई भने, “आफ्ना मालिकलाई यसो भन, 'परमप्रभु यसो भन्नुहुन्छः अश्शूरका राजाका सेवकहरूले मेरो अपमान गरेर बोलेका कुरा सुनेर तँ नडरा ।
7 Behold I will send a spirit upon him, and he shall hear a message, and shall return into his own country, and I will make him fall by the sword in his own country.
हेर्, म त्यसमा एउटा आत्मा हालिदिनेछु, र त्यसले एउटा खबर सुन्नेछ र आफ्नै देशमा फर्केर जानेछ । त्यसको आफ्नै देशमा म त्यसलाई तरवारले ढाल्न लगाउनेछु' ।”
8 And Rabsaces returned, and found the king of the Assyrians besieging Lobna: for he had heard that he was departed from Lachis.
तब प्रधान सेनापति फर्के, र अश्शूरका राजालाई लिब्नाको विरुद्धमा लडाइँ गरिरहेका भेट्टाए किनकि राजा लाकीशबाट गइसकेका थिए भनी तिनले सुनेका थिए ।
9 And when he heard of Theraca king of Ethiopia: Behold, he is come out to fight with thee: and was going against him, he sent messengers to Ezechias, saying:
त्यसै बेला सनहेरीबको विरुद्धमा लडाइँ गर्न कुश र मिश्रदेशका राजा तिर्हाकाहले सेना परिचालन गरेका छन् भनेर तिनले सुने, त्यसैले तिनले फेरि हिजकियाकहाँ यो समाचारसहित सन्देशवाहकहरू पठाए,
10 Thus shall you say to Ezechias king of Juda: Let not thy God deceive thee, in whom thou trustest: and do not say: Jerusalem shall not be delivered into the hands of the king of the Assyrians.
“यहूदाका राजा हिजकियालाई भन्नूः 'यरूशलेम अश्शूरका राजाको हातमा पर्नेछैन' भन्ने तिमीले भरोसा गरेका परमेश्वरले तिमीलाई धोका नदेऊन् ।
11 Behold thou hast heard what the kings of the Assyrians have done to all countries, how they have laid them waste: and canst thou alone be delivered?
हेर, अश्शूरका राजाहरूले सबै देशलाई पूर्ण रूपले नष्ट पारेका कुरा तिमीले सुनेका छौ । त्यसैले के तिमीले चाहिँ छुटकारा पाउनेछौ?
12 Have the gods of the nations delivered any of them, whom my fathers have destroyed, to wit, Gozan, and Haran, and Reseph, and the children of Eden that were in Thelassar?
मेरा पुर्खाहरूले नष्ट पारेकाः गोजान, हारान, रेसेप र तेल-अस्सारमा बस्ने अदनका मानिसहरूलाई ती जातिहरूका देवताहरूले छुटकारा दिएका छन्?
13 Where is the king of Emath, and the king of Arphad, and the king of the city of Sepharvaim, of Ana and of Ava?
हमातका राजा, अर्पादका राजा, सपर्बेम, हेना र इव्वा सहरहरूका राजा कहाँ छन्?”
14 And when Ezechias had received the letter of the hand of the messengers, and had read it, he went up to the house of the Lord, and spread it before the Lord,
हिजकियाले सन्देशवाहकरूबाट यो चिठी प्राप्त गरे, र तिनले यो पढे । तब तिनी परमप्रभुको मन्दिरमा उक्ले अनि उहाँको सामु यसलाई खोलेर राखिदिए ।
15 And he prayed in his sight, saying: O Lord God of Israel, who sitteth upon the cherubims, thou alone art the God of all the kings of the earth: thou madest heaven and earth:
तब हिजकियाले परमप्रभुको सामु प्रार्थना गरे, “हे सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्वर तपाईं जो करूबहरूमाथि विराजमान हुनुहुन्छ, तपाईं मात्र पृथ्वीका सबै राज्यमाथि राजा हुनुहुन्छ । तपाईंले नै स्वर्ग र पृथ्वीको सृष्टि गर्नुभयो ।
16 Incline thy ear, and hear: open, O Lord, thy eyes, and see: and hear all the words of Sennacherib, who hath sent to upbraid unto us the living God.
हे परमप्रभु, आफ्नो कान थाप्नुहोस् र सुन्नुहोस् । हे परमप्रभु, आफ्ना आँखा खोल्नुहोस्, र सनहेरीबका कुराहरू सुन्नुहोस् जुन त्यसले जीवित परमेश्वरको गिल्ला गर्न पठाएको छ ।
17 Of a truth, O Lord, the kings of the Assyrians have destroyed nations, and the lands of them all.
हे परमप्रभु, अश्शूरका राजाहरूले जातिहरू र तिनीहरूका देशहरूलाई साँच्चै नै नाश पारेका छन् ।
18 And they have cast their gods into the fire: for they were not Rods, but the works of men’s hands of wood and stone, and they destroyed them.
तिनीहरूले उनीहरूका देवताहरूलाई आगोमा फालेका छन् किनकि तिनीहरू ईश्वरहरू थिएनन्, तर मानिसका हातका काम अर्थात् काठ र ढुङ्गाहरू थिए । त्यसैले अश्शूरीहरूले तिनलाई नष्ट पारे ।
19 Now therefore, O Lord our God, save us from his hand, that all the kingdoms of the earth may know, that thou art the Lord the only God.
अब हे परमप्रभु हाम्रा परमेश्वर, म बिन्ती गर्छु, कि त्यसको शक्तिबाट हामीलाई बचाउनुहोस्, ताकि पृथ्वीका सबै राज्यले तपाईँ परमप्रभु मात्र परमेश्वर हुनुहुन्छ भनी जान्न सकून् ।”
20 And Isaias the son of Amos sent to Ezechias, saying: Thus saith the Lord the God of Israel: I have heard the prayer thou hast made to me concerning Sennacherib king of the Assyrians.
तब आमोजका छोरा यशैयाले हिजकियालाई यसो भनेर समाचार पठाए, “इस्राएलका परमप्रभु परमेश्वर यसो भन्नुहुन्छ, 'तैँले अश्शूरका राजा सनहेरीबको बारेमा मलाई प्रार्थना गरेकोले म तेरो कुरा सुन्नेछु ।
21 This is the word, that the Lord hath spoken of him: The virgin the daughter of Sion hath despised thee, and laughed thee to scorn: the daughter of Jerusalem hath wagged her head behind thy back.
त्यसको विषयमा परमप्रभुले भन्नुभएको वचन यही होः “सियोनकी कन्या-छोरीले तँलाई तिरस्कार गर्छे, र तेरो खिल्ली उडाउँछे । यरूशलेमकी छोरीले तँलाई हेर्दै आफ्नो शिर हल्लाउँछे ।
22 Whom hast thou reproached, and whom hast thou blasphemed? against whom hast thou exalted thy voice, and lifted up thy eyes on high? against the holy one of Israel.
तैँले कसको गिल्ला गरेको छस् र अपमान गरेको छस्? तैँले कसको विरुद्धमा आफ्नो सोर उच्च पारेको छस् र घमण्डका साथ आफ्ना आँखा माथि उठाएको छस्? इस्राएलका परमपवित्रको विरुद्धमा हो!
23 By the hand of thy servants thou hast reproached the Lord, and hast said: With the multitude of my chariots I have gone up to the height of the mountains, to the top of Libanus, and have cut down its tall cedars, and its choice fir trees. And I have entered into the furthest parts thereof, and the forest of its Carmel.
तेरा सन्देशवाहकहरूद्वारा तैँले परमप्रभुको गिल्ला गरेको छस्, र भनेको छस्, 'मेरा धेरै रथहरूसँगै म पर्वतहरूका टाकुराहरूमा, लेबनानका सबैभन्दा उच्च टाकुराहरूमा उक्लेको छु । म त्यहाँका अग्ला-अग्ला देवदारुका रुखहरू र सबैभन्दा असल सल्लाका रुखहरू काटेर ढाल्नेछु । म त्यसको पल्लो कुनामा, त्यसको सबैभन्दा फलदायी वनभित्र प्रवेश गर्नेछु ।
24 I have cut down, and I have drunk strange waters, and have dried up with the soles of my feet all the shut up waters.
मैले इनारहरू खनेको छु, र विदेशी पानी पिएको छु । मैले आफ्ना खुट्टाका पैतलामुनि मिश्रदेशका सबै नदी सुकाएँ ।'
25 Hast thou not heard what I have done from the beginning? from the days of old I have formed it, and now I have brought it to effect: that fenced cities of fighting men should be turned to heaps of ruin:
के धेरै पहिले नै मैले यसको निधो गरेको अनि प्राचीन समयमा नै मैले यो रचेको तैँले सुनेको छैनस् र? अब मैले यसलाई कार्यान्वयन गर्न खोज्दैछु । तैँले यहाँ किल्ला भएका सहरहरूलाई भग्नावशेषको थुप्रोमा समेटेको छस् ।
26 And the inhabitants of them, were weak of hand, they trembled and were confounded, they became like the grass of the field, and the green herb on the tops of houses, which withered before it came to maturity.
तिनका थोरै बल भएका बासिन्दाहरू, थाकेका र लाजमा परेका छन् । तिनीहरू मैदानका बिरुवाहरू हुन्, हरिया घाँस छानामाथिका वा मैदान घाँस हुन् जुन उम्रनअगि नै सुक्छन् ।
27 Thy dwelling and thy going out, and thy coming in, and thy way I knew before, and thy rage against me.
तर तँ भुइँमा बसेको र तँ बाहिर गएको र भित्र आएको अनि मेरो विरुद्धमा तैंले रिस गरेको मलाई थाहा छ ।
28 Thou hast been mad against me, and thy pride hath come up to my ears: therefore I will put a ring in thy nose, and a bit between thy lips, and I will turn thee back by the way, by which thou camest.
तैँले मेरो विरुद्धमा रिस देखाएको हुनाले र तेरो घमण्ड मेरो कानसम्म पुगेको हुनाले म तेरो नाकमा मेरो बल्छी लगाउनेछु, र तेरो मुखमा मेरो लगाम लगाउनेछु । म तँलाई तँ आएकै बाटो फर्काउनेछु ।”
29 And to thee, O Ezechias, this shall be a sign: Eat this year what thou shalt find: and in the second year, such things as spring of themselves: but in the third year sow and reap: plant vineyards, and eat the fruit of them.
तेरो लागि चिन्हचाहिँ यो हुने छः यो साल तैँले आफै उम्रेको अन्न खानेछस्, र अर्को साल त्यसैबाट उम्रेको खानेछस् । तर तेस्रो वर्षमा चाहिँ तैँले अन्न रोप्ने अनि कटनी गर्नेछस्, दाखबारी लगाउनेछस् र तिनका फल खानेछस् ।
30 And whatsoever shall be left of the house of Juda, shall take root downward, and bear fruit upward.
यहूदाको घरानाका बाँचेर बाँकी बाँचेकाहरूले फेरि जरा हाल्नेछन् र फल फलाउनेछन् ।
31 For out of Jerusalem shall go forth a remnant, and that which shall be saved out of mount Sion: the zeal of the Lord of hosts shall do this.
किनकि यरूशलेमबाट बाँकी रहेको एउटा भाग आउनेछ, सियोन पर्वतबाट बाँचेकाहरू आउनेछन् । सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभुको जोसले यो गर्नेछ ।
32 Wherefore thus saith the Lord concerning the king of the Assyrians: He shall not come into this city, nor shoot an arrow into it, nor come before it with shield, nor cast a trench about it.
त्यसकारण अश्शूरका राजाको विषयमा परमप्रभु यसो भन्नुहुन्छः “ऊ यो सहरमा आउनेछैन, न त त्यसले यहाँ काँड हान्नेछ । न त यसको सामु त्यो ढाल लिएर आउनेछ वा यसको विरुद्धमा घेरा-मचान लगाउनेछ ।
33 By the way that he came, he shall return: and into this city he shall not come, saith the Lord.
जुन बाटोबाट ऊ आएको थियो ऊ त्यही बाटो फर्केर जानेछ । ऊ यस सहरमा पस्नेछैन— यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो ।
34 And I will protect this city, and will save it for my own sake, and for David my servant’s sake.
किनकि मेरो आफ्नै निम्ति र मेरा दास दाऊदको निम्ति म यस सहरको रक्षा गर्नेछु र यसलाई बचाउनेछु ।”
35 And it came to pass that night, that an angel of the Lord came, and slew in the camp of the Assyrians a hundred and eighty-five thousand. And when he arose early in the morning, he saw all the bodies of the dead.
त्यस राज परमप्रभुका दूत बाहिर निस्के र अश्शूरीहरूको छाउनीलाई आक्रमण गरे, र एक लाख पचासी हजार सिपाहीलाई मारे । जब मानिसहरू बिहान सबेरै उठे तब जताततै लाश छरिएका थिए ।
36 And Sennacherib king of the Assyrians departing went away, and he returned and abode in Ninive.
त्यसैले अश्शूरका राजा सनहेरीबले इस्राएल चोडे र घरमा गए, र निनवेमा बसे ।
37 And as he was worshipping in the temple of Nesroch his god, Adramelech and Sarasar his sons slew him with the sword, and they fled into the land of the Armenians, and Asarhaddon his son reigned in his stead.
पछि तिनले आफ्नो देवता निस्रोकको मन्दिरमा पुजा गरिरहँदा तिनका छोराहरू अद्रम्मलेक र शरेसेरले तिनलाई तरवारले मारे । अनि तिनीहरू आरारात देशमा भागेर गए । तब तिनको ठाउँमा तिनका छोरा एसरहदोन राजा भए ।
