1 Samuel 31
1 Meanwhile the Philistines had attacked Israel, and the Israelite army ran away from them, and many were killed on Mount Gilboa.
यति बेला पलिश्तीहरूले इस्राएलको विरुद्धमा युद्ध गरे । इस्राएलका मानिसहरू पलिश्तीहरूका सामुबाट भागे र गिल्बो डाँडामा मरे ।
2 The Philistines chased down Saul and his sons, killing Saul's sons Jonathan, Abinadab, and Malchishua.
पलिश्तीहरूले शाऊल र तिनका छोराहरूलाई नजिकैबाट खेदे । पलिश्तीहरूले तिनका छोराहरू जोनाथन, अबीनादाब र मल्कीशूअलाई मारे ।
3 The fighting became very intense around Saul, and the arrows of the Philistine archers found their target, wounding Saul very badly.
युद्ध शाऊलको विरुद्धमा निकै भारी पर्यो र धनुर्धारीहरूले तिनलाई भेट्टाए । तिनीहरूका कारणले गर्दा तिनी घोर पीडामा परे ।
4 Saul said to his armor-bearer, “Take your sword and kill me, or these heathen men will come and kill and torture me!” But the armor-bearer didn't want to do it because he was too afraid. So Saul took his own sword and fell on it.
तब शाऊलले आफ्नो हतियार बोक्नेलाई भने, “तेरो तरवार थुत र त्यसले मलाई छेडिदे । नत्रता यी बेखतनाहरू आउनेछन् र मलाई दुर्व्यवहार गर्नेछन् ।” तर तिनका हतियार बोक्नेले त्यसो गरेन, किनकि ऊ साह्रै डराएका थियो । त्यसैले शाऊलले आफ्नै तरवार लिए र यसमाथि उनिए ।
5 When his armor-bearer saw that Saul was dead, he also fell on his own sword and died with him.
जब तिनका हतियार बोक्नेले शाऊल मरेको देखे, तिनी पनि त्यसैगरी आफ्नो तरवारमा उनिएर तिनीसँगै मरे ।
6 Saul, his three sons, his armor-bearer, and all the men with him, died the same day.
यसरी शाऊल, तिनका तिन जना छोरा र तिनका हतियार बोक्ने मरे— यी मानिसहरू सबै त्यसै दिन मरे ।
7 When the Israelites who lived along the valley and those on the other side of the Jordan realized that the Israelite army had run away, and that Saul and his sons had died, they abandoned their cities and they also ran away. So the Philistines came and took them over.
जब मैदानको पारीपट्टि भएका इस्राएलका मानिसहरू र यर्दनको पारिपट्टि भएकाहरूले इस्राएलका मानिसहरू भागेका, र शाऊल र तिनका छोराहरू मरेका देखे, तब तिनीहरूले आफ्ना सहरहरू छाडे र भागे, अनि पलिश्तीहरू आए र तिनीहरूमा बसोबास गरे ।
8 The next day, when the Philistines went to strip the dead, they found Saul and his three sons lying on Mount Gilboa.
भोलिपल्ट यसो भयो, जब पलिश्तीहरू मृतकहरूलाई लूट्न आए तब तिनीहरूले शाऊल र तिनका छोराहरूलाई गिल्बो डाँडामा मृत फेला पारे ।
9 They cut off Saul's head, stripped him of his armor, and sent messengers throughout the country of the Philistines to announce the news in the temples of their idols and to their people.
तिनीहरूले उनको शिर काटे, उनको हतियार लूटे र आफ्ना मूर्तीहरूका मन्दिरहरू र मानिसहरूकहाँ समाचार लैजानलाई पलिश्तीहरूका देशभरि दूतहरू पठाए ।
10 They placed his armor in the temple of the Ashtoreths, and nailed his body to the town wall of Beth-shan.
उनका हतियारलाई तिनीहरूले अश्तोरेतको मन्दिरमा राखे र तिनीहरूले उनको शरीरलाई बेथ-शानको सहरको पर्कालमा बाँधे ।
11 However, when the people of Jabesh-gilead heard what the Philistines had done to Saul,
जब याबेश-गिलादका बासिन्दाहरूले पलिश्तीहरूले शाऊललाई गरेका कुरा सुने,
12 all their strong warriors set out, traveled all night, and took down the bodies of Saul and his sons from the wall of Beth-shan. When they got back to Jabesh, they burned the bodies there.
तब सबै लडाकु मानिसहरू उठे र रातभरि यात्रा गरेर गए अनि शाऊल र तिनका छोराहरूको शरीर बेथ-शानको पर्खालबाट ल्याए । तिनीहरू याबेशमा गए र तिनीहरूलाई जलाए ।
13 Then they took their bones and buried them under the tamarisk tree in Jabesh, and fasted for seven days.
त्यसपछि तिनीहरूले उनीहरूका हड्डीहरू लिए र तिनलाई याबेशको झ्याउको रूखमुनि गाडे अनि तिनीहरू सात दिनसम्म उपवास बसे ।
