1 Samuel 13
1 Saul reigned one year; and when he had reigned two years over Israel,
शाऊलले राज्य गर्न सुरु गर्दा तिनी तिस वर्षका थिए । तिनले इस्रालमाथि चालिस वर्ष राज्य गरेका थिए,
2 Saul chose him three thousand men of Israel; whereof two thousand were with Saul in Michmash and in mount Bethel, and a thousand were with Jonathan in Gibeah of Benjamin: and the rest of the people he sent every man to his tent.
तिनले इस्राएलका तिन हजार जना मानिसहरूलाई चुने । दुई हजार जना मानिसहरू तिनीसँगै मिकमाशमा र बेथेलको पहाडी देशमा थिए, जबकि एक हजार जना मानिसहरू बेन्यामीनको गिबामा जोनाथनसँग थिए । सिपाहीहरूमध्ये बाँकीलाई तिनले आ-आफ्नो घरमा पठाए ।
3 And Jonathan smote the garrison of the Philistines that was in Geba, and the Philistines heard of it. And Saul blew the trumpet throughout all the land, saying, Let the Hebrews hear.
जोनातनले गिबामा भएको पलिश्तीहरूका चौकीलाई पराजित गरे र पलिश्तीहरूले यो सुने । तब शाऊलले “हिब्रूहरूले सुनून्” भन्दै देशभरि तुरही फुके ।
4 And all Israel heard say that Saul had smitten a garrison of the Philistines, and that Israel also was had in abomination with the Philistines. And the people were called together after Saul to Gilgal.
शऊलले पलिश्तीहरूका चौकीलाई हराए र अझै इस्राएल पलिश्तीहरूको निम्ति दुर्गन्ध बनेका थिए भन्ने सबै इस्राएलले सुने । तब गिलगालमा शऊलकहाँ आउन सबै सिपाहरूलाई बोलाइयो ।
5 And the Philistines gathered themselves together to fight with Israel, thirty thousand chariots, and six thousand horsemen, and people as the sand which is on the sea shore in multitude: and they came up, and pitched in Michmash, eastward from Bethaven.
पलिश्तीहरू तिन हजार रथहरू, छ हजार रथ हाँक्नेहरू र समुद्र किनारको बालुवा सरी असंख्या सेनाहरू लिएर इस्राएलको विरुद्धमा लडाइँ गर्न एकसाथ भेला भए । तिनीहरू माथि आए र बेथ-आवनको पूर्वमा मिकमाशमा छाउनी हाले ।
6 When the men of Israel saw that they were in a strait, (for the people were distressed, ) then the people did hide themselves in caves, and in thickets, and in rocks, and in high places, and in pits.
जब इस्राएलका मानिसहरूले आफूहरू कष्टमा परेको देखे, किनभने मानिसहरू व्याकुल थिए, मानिसहरू ओढारहरूतिर, झाडीहरूभित्र, चट्टानहरूमा, इनारहरूमा र खाल्डोहरूमा लुके ।
7 And some of the Hebrews went over Jordan to the land of Gad and Gilead. As for Saul, he was yet in Gilgal, and all the people followed him trembling.
केही हिब्रूहरू यर्दन पारि गाद र गिलादको भूभागतिर गए । तर शाऊल अझ पनि गिगालमा नै थिए र सबै मानिसहरू डरले काम्दै तिनको पछि लागे ।
8 And he tarried seven days, according to the set time that Samuel had appointed: but Samuel came not to Gilgal; and the people were scattered from him.
तिनले शमूएलले तोकेका समय सात दिनसम्म पर्खे । तर शमूएल गिलगालमा आएनन् र मानिसहरू शाऊलदेखि तितरबितर भइरहेका थिए ।
9 And Saul said, Bring here a burnt offering to me, and peace offerings. And he offered the burnt offering.
शाऊलले भने, “मलाई होमबलि र मेलबलि ल्याओ ।” अनि तिनले होमबलि चढाए ।
10 And it came to pass, that as soon as he had made an end of offering the burnt offering, behold, Samuel came; and Saul went out to meet him, that he might salute him.
तिनले होमबलि चढाउन सिद्ध्याउने बित्तिकै शमूएल आइपुगे । शाऊल तिनलाई भेट्न र अभिवादन गर्न निस्के ।
11 And Samuel said, What have you done? And Saul said, Because I saw that the people were scattered from me, and that you came not within the days appointed, and that the Philistines gathered themselves together at Michmash;
त्यसपछि शमूएलले भने, “तपाईंले यो के गर्नुभएको?” शाऊलले जवाफ दिए, “जब मानिसहरूले मलाई छोडिरहेको मैले देखें र तोकिएको समयभित्र तपाईं आउनुभएन र पलिश्तीहरू मिकमाशमा भेला भएका थिए,
12 Therefore said I, The Philistines will come down now on me to Gilgal, and I have not made supplication to the LORD: I forced myself therefore, and offered a burnt offering.
मैले भने, 'अब पलिश्तीहरू गिलगालमा मेरो विरुद्धमा आउनेछन् र मैले परमप्रभुको निगाह खोजेको छैन ।' त्यसैले होमबलि चढाउन मैले आफैलाई दवाव दिएँ ।”
13 And Samuel said to Saul, You have done foolishly: you have not kept the commandment of the LORD your God, which he commanded you: for now would the LORD have established your kingdom on Israel for ever.
तब शमूएलले शाऊललाई भने, “तपाईंले मूर्खतापूर्वक काम गर्नुभएको छ । परमप्रभु आफ्ना परमेश्वरले दिनुभएको आज्ञा तपाईंले पालन गर्नुभएको छैन । त्यसो गरेको भए परमप्रभुले इस्राएलमाथि तपाईंको शासन सदाको निम्ति स्थापित गर्नुहुनेथियो ।
14 But now your kingdom shall not continue: the LORD has sought him a man after his own heart, and the LORD has commanded him to be captain over his people, because you have not kept that which the LORD commanded you.
तर अब तपाईंको शासनले निरन्तरता पाउनेछैन । परमप्रभुले आफ्नोजस्तो हृदय भएको एक जना मानिसको खोजी गर्नुभएको छ र परमप्रभुले आफ्ना मानिसहरूका शासक हुन तिनलाई नियुक्त गर्नुभएको छ, किनभने उहाँले तपाईंलाई दिनुभएको आज्ञा तपाईंले पालन गर्नुभएको छैन ।”
15 And Samuel arose, and got him up from Gilgal to Gibeah of Benjamin. And Saul numbered the people that were present with him, about six hundred men.
तब शमूएल उठे र गिलगालबाट बेन्यामीनको गिबातिर गए । तब शाऊलले आफूसँग भएका मानिसहरूको गन्ती गरे, तिनीहरू झण्डै छ सय जना मानिसहरू थिए ।
16 And Saul, and Jonathan his son, and the people that were present with them, stayed in Gibeah of Benjamin: but the Philistines encamped in Michmash.
शाऊल, तिनको छोरा जोनाथन र तिनीहरूसँग भएका मानिसहरू बेन्यामीनको गिबामा नै बसे । तर पलिश्तीहरूले मिकमाशमा छाउनी हाले ।
17 And the spoilers came out of the camp of the Philistines in three companies: one company turned to the way that leads to Ophrah, to the land of Shual:
पलिश्तीहरूका छाउनीबाट लुट्ने तिन समूह आए । एउटा समूह शूआलको भूमि ओप्रातिर लागे ।
18 And another company turned the way to Bethhoron: and another company turned to the way of the border that looks to the valley of Zeboim toward the wilderness.
अर्को समूह बेथ-होरोनतिर गए र अर्को समूह उजाड-स्थानतिर सबोईंको बेंसी देखिने सिमानातिर लागे ।
19 Now there was no smith found throughout all the land of Israel: for the Philistines said, Lest the Hebrews make them swords or spears:
इस्राएलभरि कुनै फलामको काम गर्ने मानिसहरू भेट्टाउन सकिंदैनथ्यौ, किनभने पलिश्तीहरूले भने, “नत्रता हिब्रूहरूले आफ्ना निम्ति भालाहरू र तरवारहरू बनाउँछन् ।”
20 But all the Israelites went down to the Philistines, to sharpen every man his share, and his coulter, and his ax, and his mattock.
तर इस्राएलका सबै मानिसहरू आ-आफ्ना फाली, कोदालो, बन्चरो र हँसिया अर्जाप्न तल पलिश्तीहरूकहाँ जाने गर्थे ।
21 Yet they had a file for the mattocks, and for the coulters, and for the forks, and for the axes, and to sharpen the goads.
फाली र कोदालो अर्जाप्नको निम्ति दुई तिहाइ शेकेल अनि बन्चरो अर्जाप्नको र फाली अडाउने करुवा सोझ्याउन एक तीहाइ शेकेल ज्याला थियो ।
22 So it came to pass in the day of battle, that there was neither sword nor spear found in the hand of any of the people that were with Saul and Jonathan: but with Saul and with Jonathan his son was there found.
त्यसैले युद्धको दिनमा शाऊल र जोनाथनसँग भएका सिपाहरूका हातमा कुनै तरवार वा बाला थिएन । शाऊल र तिनका छोरा जोनाथनसँग मात्र ती थिए ।
23 And the garrison of the Philistines went out to the passage of Michmash.
पलिश्तीहरूको फौज मिकमाशको घाटीमा गयो ।
