2 Kings 25
1 And it came to pass in the ninth year of his reign, in the tenth month, the tenth day of the month, that Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon came, he and all his army against Jerusalem: and they surrounded it: and raised works round about it.
राजा सिदकियाहको शासनकालको नवौँ वर्षको दसौँ महिनाको दसौँ दिनमा बेबिलोनका राजा नबूकदनेसर आफ्ना सबै सेना लिएर यरूशलेमको विरुद्धमा आए । तिनले यसको सामु छाउनी हाले र तिनीहरूले यसको चारैतिर घेरा हाले ।
2 And the city was shut up and besieged till the eleventh year of king Sedecias,
त्यसैले राजा सिदकियाहको शासनकालको एघारौँ वर्षसम्म सहरलाई घेरा हालियो ।
3 The ninth day of the month: and a famine prevailed in the city, and there was no bread for the people of the land.
त्यस वर्षको चौथो महिनाको नवौँ दिनमा सहरमा यति घोर अनिकाल पर्यो कि देशका मानिसहरूका लागि खानेकुरा भएन ।
4 And a breach was made into the city: and all the men of war fled in the night between the two walls by the king’s garden, (now the Chaldees besieged the city round about, ) and Sedecias fled by the way that leadeth to the plains of the wilderness.
तब सहरको पर्खाल तोडेर भित्र प्रवेश गरियो र रातमा राजाको बगैँचानेर भएका दुईवटा पर्खालको बिचको ढोकाको बाटोबाट सबै योद्धा भागे, जबकि कल्दीहरूले सहरको चारैतिर घेरा लगाई राखेकै थिए । राजा अराबाको दिशातिर गए ।
5 And the army of the Chaldees pursued after the king, and overtook him in the plains of Jericho: and all the warriors that were with him were scattered, and left him:
तर कल्दीहरूका सेनाले सिदकियाह राजालाई खेदे, र यरीहो नजिकैको यर्दन नदीका मैदानहरूमा तिनलाई भेट्टाए । तिनका सबै सेना तिनीबाट तितर-बितर भए ।
6 So they took the king, and brought him to the king of Babylon to Reblatha, and he gave judgment upon him.
तिनीहरूले राजालाई गिरफ्तार गरे र तिनलाई रिब्लामा बेबिलोनका राजाकहाँ ल्याए, जहाँ तिनीहरूले तिनलाई फैसला सुनाए ।
7 And he slew the sons of Sedecias before his face, and he put out his eyes, and bound him with chains, and brought him to Babylon.
तिनीहरूले सिदकियाहका छोराहरूलाई तिनकै आँखाका सामु मारे । तब तिनका आँखा तिनले निकाले, तिनलाई काँसाका साङ्लाहरूले बाँधे र तिनलाई बेबिलोनमा ल्याए ।
8 In the fifth month, the seventh day of the month, that is, the nineteenth year of the king of Babylon, came Nabuzardan commander of the army, a servant of the king of Babylon, into Jerusalem.
अब बेबिलोनका राजा नबूकदनेसरको शासनकालको उन्नाइसौँ वर्षको पाँचौँ महिनाको सातौँ दिनमा बेबिलोनका राजाका सेवक अनि अङ्गरक्षकहरूका सेनापति नबूजरदान यरूशलेममा आए ।
9 And he burnt the house of the Lord, and the king’s house, and the houses of Jerusalem, and every house he burnt with fire.
परमप्रभुको मन्दिर, राजदरबार र यरूशलेमका सबै घरहरूमा तिनले आगो लगाए । सहरका हरेक महत्त्वपूर्ण भवनमा पनि तिनले आगो लगाए ।
10 And all the army of the Chaldees, which was with the commander of the troops, broke down the walls of Jerusalem round about.
अङ्गरक्षकहरूको सेनापतिको अधीनमा रहेका बेबिलोनका सबै सेनाले यरूशलेम वरिपरिको पर्खालहरू नष्ट पारिदिए ।
11 And Nabuzardan the commander of the army, carried away the rest of the people that remained in the city, and the fugitives that had gone over to the king of Babylon, and the remnant of the common people.
बेबिलोनका राजालाई वेवास्ता गरेका सहरमा बाँकी बचेका मानिसहरू अनि बाँकी रहेका अरू मानिसहरूका सम्बन्धमा अङ्गरक्षकहरूका सेनापति नबूजरदानले, तिनीहरूलाई निर्वासनमा लगे ।
12 But of the poor of the land he left some dressers of vines and husbandmen.
तर अङ्गरक्षकहरूका सेनापतिले दाखबारी र खेतबारीमा काम गर्न सबैभन्दा गरिबहरूलाई त्यहीँ छाडिदिए ।
13 And the pillars of brass that were in the temple of the Lord, and the bases, and the sea of brass which was in the house of the Lord, the Chaldees broke in pieces, and carried all the brass of them to Babylon.
परमप्रभुको मन्दिरमा राखिएका काँसाका स्तम्भहरू, आधारहरू र काँसाको विशाल खड्कुँलोलाई कल्दीहरूले टुक्राटुक्रा पारे र काँसालाई बेबिलोनमा लगे ।
14 They took away also the pots of brass, and the mazers, and the forks, and the cups, and the mortars, and all the vessels of brass with which they ministered.
भाँडाहरू, बेल्चाहरू, सलेदाका चिम्टाहरू, चम्चाहरू र मन्दिरमा पुजारीहरूले सेवा गर्दा प्रयोग गरिने काँसाका सबै सामान पनि कल्दीहरूले लगे ।
15 Moreover also the censers, and the bowls, such as were of gold in gold, and such as were of silver in silver, the general of the army took away.
राजाका सेनापतिले खरानी उठाउने भाँडाहरू अनि सुन र चाँदीले बनेका कचौराहरू लिएर गए ।
16 That is, two pillars, one sea, and the bases which Solomon had made in the temple of the Lord: the brass of all these vessels was without weight.
सोलोमनले मन्दिरको लागि बनाएका दुईवटा स्तम्भ, विशाल खड्कुँलो र आधारहरूमा भएका काँसा जोख्नै सकिंदनथ्यो ।
17 One pillar was eighteen cubits high, and the chapiter of brass which was upon it was three cubits high: and the network, and the pomegranates that were upon the chapiter of the pillar, were all of brass: and the second pillar had the like adorning.
पहिलो स्तम्भको उचाइ अठार हात थियो, र स्तम्भमाथि एउटा स्तम्भ-शिर थियो । स्तम्भ-शिर तिन हात अग्लो थियो, र यो काँसाको जाली र दारिमका बुट्टाले चारैतिर भरिएको थियो । अर्को स्तम्भ र यसका जालीसमेत सबै पहिलेको जस्तै थियो ।
18 And the general of the army took Seraias the chief priest, and Sophonias the second priest, and three doorkeepers.
अङ्गरक्षकहरूका सेनापतिले मुख्य पुजारी सरायाह, दोस्रो दर्जाका पुजारी सपन्याह र तिन जना द्वारपाललाई लिएर गए ।
19 And out of the city one eunuch, who was captain over the men of war: and five men of them that had stood before the king, whom he found in the city, and Sopher the captain of the army who exercised the young soldiers of the people of the land: and threescore men of the common people, who were found in the city.
सिपाहीहरूको जिम्मामा भएका अधिकारी, अनि सहरमा अझै बाँकी रहेका राजाका पाँच जना सल्लाहकारलाई तिनले सहरबाट कैद गरेर लगे । मानिसहरूलाई सेनामा भर्ती गर्ने मुख्य अधिकृत र देशमा भएका अन्य साठी जना विशिष्ट मानिसलाई पनि तिनले कैद गरेर लगे ।
20 These Nabuzardan the general of the army took away, and carried them to the king of Babylon to Reblatha.
तब अङ्गरक्षकका सेनापति नबूजरदानले तिनीहरूलाई लगे र रिब्लामा बेबिलोनका राजाकहाँ ल्याए ।
21 And the king of Babylon smote them, and slew them at Reblatha in the land of Emath: so Juda was carried away out of their land.
बेबिलोनका राजाले हमात देशको रिब्लामा तिनीहरूलाई मारे । यसरी यहूदा आफ्नो देशबाट निर्वासनमा लगियो ।
22 But over the people that remained in the land of Juda, which Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon had left, he gave the government to Godolias the son of Ahicam the son of Saphan.
बेबिलोनका राजा नबूकदनेसरले शापानका नाति, अहीकामका छोरा गदल्याहलाई यहूदामा बाँकी छोडिएका मानिसहरूमाथि निरिक्षक नियुक्त गरे ।
23 And when all the captains of the soldiers had heard this, they and the men that were with them, to wit, that the king of Babylon had made Godolias governor, they came to Godolias to Maspha, Ismael the son of Nathanias, and Johanan the son of Caree, and Saraia the son of Thanehumeth the Netophathite, and Jezonias the son of Maachathi, they and their men.
बेबिलोनका राजाले गदल्याहलाई राज्यपाल बनाए भनेर जब सिपाहीहरूका सबै सेनापति र तिनीहरूका मानिसहरूले सुने, तब तिनीहरू मिस्पामा गदल्याहकहाँ गए । यी मानिसहरू नतन्याहका छोरा इश्माएल, कारेहका छोरा योहानान, नतोपाती तन्हूमेतका छोरा सरायाह र माकातीका छोरा याजन्याह र तिनीहरूका मानिसहरू थिए ।
24 And Godolias swore to them and to their men, saying: Be not afraid to serve the Chaldees: stay in the land, and serve the king of Babylon, and it shall be well with you.
गदल्याहले तिनीहरू र तिनीहरूका मानिसहरूसँग शपथ खाए र तिनीहरूलाई भने, “कल्दीका अधिकारीहरूदेखि नडराओ । यही देशमा बसे र बेबिलोनका राजाको सेवा गर, र तिमीहरूको भलो हुने छ ।”
25 But it came to pass in the seventh month, that Ismael the son of Nathanias, the son of Elisama of the seed royal came, and ten men with him: and smote Godolias so that he died: and also the Jews and the Chaldees that were with him in Maspha.
तर सातौँ महिनामा एलीशामाका नाति, नतन्याहका छोरा इश्माएल जो राजकीय वंशका थिए, तिनले दस जना मानिसलाई लिएर आए र गदल्याहलाई आक्रमण गरे । मिस्पामा आफूसँग भएका यहूदाका मानिसहरू र बेबिलोनीहरूसँगै गदल्याहको मृत्यु भयो ।
26 And all the people both little and great, and the captains of the soldiers, rising up went to Egypt, fearing the Chaldees.
तब सानादेखि ठुलासम्म सबै मानिससाथै सिपाहीहरूका सेनापतिहरू उठे, र तिनीहरू मिश्रमा गए किनकि तिनीहरू बेबिलोनीहरूदेखि डराएका थिए ।
27 And it came to pass in the seven and thirtieth year of the captivity of Joachin king of Juda, in the twelfth month the seven and twentieth day of the month: Evilmerodach king of Babylon, in the year that he began to reign, lifted up the head of Joachin king of Juda out of prison.
यहूदाका राजा यहोयाकीन निर्वासन भएको सैँतिसौँ वर्षको बाह्रौं महिनाको सत्ताइसौँ दिनमा बेबिलोनका राजा एबील-मरोदकले यहूदाका राजा यहोयाकीनलाई झ्यालखानाबाट मुक्त गरिदिए । एबील-मरोदकले राज्य गर्न सरु गरेको वर्षमा यो भएको थियो ।
28 And he spoke kindly to him: and he set his throne above the throne of the kings that were with him in Babylon.
राजाले तिनीसँग दयापूर्वक कुरा गरे, र बेबिलोनमा तिनीसित भएका अरू राजाहरूलाई भन्दा तिनलाई इज्जतदार ठाउँमा बसाए ।
29 And he changed his garments which he had in prison, and he ate bread always before him, all the days of his life.
एबील-मरोदकले यहोयाकीनका कैदका लुगाहरू उतारे, र यहोयाकीनले आफ्नो बाँकी जीवनकालभरि राजाको टेबुलमा बसेर नियमित रूपमा खाए ।
30 And he appointed him a continual allowance, which was also given him by the king day by day, all the days of his life.
तिनको जीवनको बाँकी समयभरि हरेक दिन खानाको भत्ता तिनलाई नियमित रूपमा दिइयो ।
