< 2 Chronicles 29 >
1 Hezekiah began to reign when he was five and twenty years old, and he reigned nine and twenty years in Jerusalem. And his mother’s name was Abijah, the daughter of Zechariah.
हिजकियाले राज्य गर्न सुरु गर्दा तिनी पच्चिस वर्षका थिए । तिनले यरूशलेममा उनन्तिस वर्ष राज्य गरे । तिनकी आमाको नाउँ अबिया थियो । तिनी जकरियाकी छोरी थिइन् ।
2 And he did that which was right in the sight of the LORD, according to all that David his father had done.
आफ्ना पुर्खा दाऊदले गरेझैं परमप्रभुको दृष्टिमा जे असल थियो सो तिनले गरे ।
3 He in the first year of his reign, in the first month, opened the doors of the house of the LORD, and repaired them.
तिनको राजकालको पहिलो वर्षको पहिलो महिनामा हिजकियाले परमप्रभुको मन्दिरका ढोकाहरू खोले र तिनको मरम्मत गरे ।
4 And he brought in the priests and the Levites, and gathered them together into the east street,
तिनले पुजारीहरू र लेवीहरूलाई ल्याए र तिनीहरूलाई पूर्वपट्टिको चोकमा एकसाथ भेला गराए ।
5 And said to them, Hear me, you Levites, sanctify now yourselves, and sanctify the house of the LORD God of your fathers, and carry forth the filthiness out of the holy place.
तिनले तिनीहरूलाई भने, “ए लेवीहरू हो, मेरा कुरा सुन! आफू-आफूलाई पवित्र गर, र आफ्ना पुर्खाहरूका परमप्रभु परमेश्वरको मन्दिरलाई पवित्र पार, र पवित्रस्थानबाट अपवित्र कुरा हटाइदेओ ।
6 For our fathers have trespassed, and done that which was evil in the eyes of the LORD our God, and have forsaken him, and have turned away their faces from the habitation of the LORD, and turned their backs.
किनकि हाम्रा पुर्खाहरूले पाप गरे र परमप्रभु हाम्रा परमेश्वरको दृष्टिमा जे खराब थियो सो गरे । तिनीहरूले उहाँलाई त्यागे, परमप्रभुको बस्नुहुने ठाउँबाट आफ्नो मुहारहरू फर्काए, र त्यसतर्फ आफ्ना पीठ फर्काए ।
7 Also they have shut up the doors of the porch, and put out the lamps, and have not burned incense nor offered burnt offerings in the holy place to the God of Israel.
तिनीहरूले दलानका ढोकाहरू पनि बन्द गरिदिए र बत्तीहरू निभाए । तिनीहरूले इस्राएलका परमेश्वरको पवित्रस्थानमा धूप बाल्न र होमबलि चढाउन छोडिदिए ।
8 Why the wrath of the LORD was on Judah and Jerusalem, and he has delivered them to trouble, to astonishment, and to hissing, as you see with your eyes.
यसकारण परमप्रभुको क्रोध यहूदा र यरूशलेममाथि परेको थियो, र उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई डर, आतङ्क र घृणाका पात्र बनाउनुभएको छ, जस्तो तिमीहरूका आफ्नै आँखाले तिमीहरू देख्न सक्छौ ।
9 For, see, our fathers have fallen by the sword, and our sons and our daughters and our wives are in captivity for this.
त्यसकाणले हाम्रा पुर्खाहरू तरवारले मारिएका छन्, र हाम्रा छोराहरू, हाम्री छोरीहरू र हाम्री पत्नीहरू यसैले कैदमा छन् ।
10 Now it is in my heart to make a covenant with the LORD God of Israel, that his fierce wrath may turn away from us.
अब इस्राएलका परमप्रभु परमेश्वरसँग एउटा करार गर्ने कुरा मेरो हृदयमा छ, ताकि उहाँको प्रचण्ड क्रोध हामीहरूबाट हटोस् ।
11 My sons, be not now negligent: for the LORD has chosen you to stand before him, to serve him, and that you should minister to him, and burn incense.
ए मेरा छोराहरू, अब अल्छे नहोओ, किनकि परमप्रभुले उहाँको आराधना गर्नलाई उहाँको सामु खडा हुन, र तिमीहरू उहाँका सेवकहरू होऊ र धूप बाल भनेर तिमीहरूलाई चुन्नुभएको छ ।”
12 Then the Levites arose, Mahath the son of Amasai, and Joel the son of Azariah, of the sons of the Kohathites: and of the sons of Merari, Kish the son of Abdi, and Azariah the son of Jehalelel: and of the Gershonites; Joah the son of Zimmah, and Eden the son of Joah:
तब लेवीहरू खडा भएः कहातीहरूका मानिसहरूबाट अमासैका छोरा महत र अजर्याहका छोरा योएल, अनि मरारीहरूका मानिसहरूबाट अब्दीका छोरा कीश र यहललेलका छोरा अजर्याह, अनि गेर्शोनीहरूबाट जिम्माहका छोरा योआ र योआका छोरा अदन ।
13 And of the sons of Elizaphan; Shimri, and Jeiel: and of the sons of Asaph; Zechariah, and Mattaniah:
एलीजापानका छोराहरूबाट शिम्री र यहीएल, अनि आसापका छोराहरूबाट जकरिया र मत्तन्याह ।
14 And of the sons of Heman; Jehiel, and Shimei: and of the sons of Jeduthun; Shemaiah, and Uzziel.
हेमानका छोराहरूबाट यहीएल र शिमी, अनि यदूतूनका छोराहरूबाट शमायाह र उज्जीएल ।
15 And they gathered their brothers, and sanctified themselves, and came, according to the commandment of the king, by the words of the LORD, to cleanse the house of the LORD.
तिनीहरूले आआफ्ना दाजुभाइलाई भेला गराए, र तिनीहरूले आफैलाई पवित्र गरे, अनि परमप्रभुको वचनको अनुसरण गर्दै राजाले हुकुम गरेबमोजिम परमप्रभुको मन्दिरलाई शुद्ध पार्न तिनीहरू त्यसभित्र पसे ।
16 And the priests went into the inner part of the house of the LORD, to cleanse it, and brought out all the uncleanness that they found in the temple of the LORD into the court of the house of the LORD. And the Levites took it, to carry it out abroad into the brook Kidron.
परमप्रभुको मन्दिर शुद्ध गर्न पुजारीहरू त्यसको भित्री भागमा पसे । तिनीहरूले परमप्रभुको मन्दिरभित्र भेट्टाएका सबै अशुद्ध कुराहरू बाहिर परमप्रभुका मन्दिरको चोकमा ल्याए । लेवीहरूले ती कुराहरू बोकेर किद्रोन खोल्सामा लगे ।
17 Now they began on the first day of the first month to sanctify, and on the eighth day of the month came they to the porch of the LORD: so they sanctified the house of the LORD in eight days; and in the sixteenth day of the first month they made an end.
पहिलो महिनाको पहिलो दिनमा तिनीहरूले शुद्ध पार्ने काम सुरु गरे । आठौँ दिनमा तिनीहरू परमप्रभुको दलानसम्म पुगेका थिए । अनि अझै आठ दिनसम्म तिनीहरूले परमप्रभुको मन्दिर पवित्र गरिरहे । पहिलो महिनाको सोह्रौँ दिनमा तिनीहरूले त्यो काम सिद्ध्याए ।
18 Then they went in to Hezekiah the king, and said, We have cleansed all the house of the LORD, and the altar of burnt offering, with all the vessels thereof, and the show bread table, with all the vessels thereof.
त्यसपछि तिनीहरू राजमहलभित्र हिजकिया राजाकहाँ गए र भने, “हामीले परमप्रभुको मन्दिर जम्मै पवित्र गरिसक्यौं, अर्थात् होमबलिको वेदी, त्यसका सबै भाँडाकुँडासमेत, अनि अर्पण गरिएको रोटी राख्ने टेबल, त्यसका सबै सामानसमेत ।
19 Moreover all the vessels, which king Ahaz in his reign did cast away in his transgression, have we prepared and sanctified, and, behold, they are before the altar of the LORD.
यसैले हामीले राजा आहाजले आफ्नो शासनकालमा विश्वासघाती भएर हटाएका जम्मै सरसामान पनि हामीले तयारी र पवित्र गर्यौँ । हेर्नुहोस्, ती परमप्रभुका वेदीको सामुन्ने राखिएका छन् ।”
20 Then Hezekiah the king rose early, and gathered the rulers of the city, and went up to the house of the LORD.
तब राजा हिजकिया बिहान सबेरै उठेर सहरका अगुवाहरूलाई भेला गराए । तिनी परमप्रभुको मन्दिरमा उक्लेर गए ।
21 And they brought seven bullocks, and seven rams, and seven lambs, and seven he goats, for a sin offering for the kingdom, and for the sanctuary, and for Judah. And he commanded the priests the sons of Aaron to offer them on the altar of the LORD.
तिनीहरूले सात वटा साँढे, सात वटा भेडा र सात वटा थुमा ल्याए, अनि राज्य, पवित्रस्थान र यहूदाको लागि पापबलिको निम्ति सात वटा बोका ल्याए । तिनले पुजारीहरू, हारूनका छोराहरूलाई यी सबै परमप्रभुको वेदीमा चढाउने हुकुम गरे ।
22 So they killed the bullocks, and the priests received the blood, and sprinkled it on the altar: likewise, when they had killed the rams, they sprinkled the blood on the altar: they killed also the lambs, and they sprinkled the blood on the altar.
यसैले तिनीहरूले ती साँढेहरू मारे, र पुजारीहरूले तिनका रगत लिएर वेदीमा छर्के । त्यसपछि तिनीहरूले भेडाहरू मारे, र तिनका रगत लिएर वेदीमा छर्के, र तिनीहरूले थुमाहरू पनि मारे र तिनका रगत वेदीमा छर्के ।
23 And they brought forth the he goats for the sin offering before the king and the congregation; and they laid their hands on them:
तिनीहरूले पापबलिको निम्ति बोकाहरू राजा र समुदायको अघि ल्याए । तिनीहरूले तीमाथि आआफ्ना हात राखे ।
24 And the priests killed them, and they made reconciliation with their blood on the altar, to make an atonement for all Israel: for the king commanded that the burnt offering and the sin offering should be made for all Israel.
पुजारीहरूले ती बोकाहरू मारे, र सारा इस्राएलको निम्ति प्रायश्चित गर्न पापबलि स्वरूप वेदीमा चढाए, किनकि होमबलि र पापबलिचाहिं सारा इस्राएलको निम्ति चढाउनुपर्छ भन्ने हुकुम राजाले दिएका थिए ।
25 And he set the Levites in the house of the LORD with cymbals, with psalteries, and with harps, according to the commandment of David, and of Gad the king’s seer, and Nathan the prophet: for so was the commandment of the LORD by his prophets.
हिजकियाले लेवीहरूलाई परमेश्वरको मन्दिरमा दाऊद राजा, राजाका दर्शी गाद र नातान अगमवक्ताले आज्ञा गरेअनुसार झ्याली, वीणा र सारङ्गीका साथमा आआफ्नो काममा खटाए, किनकि यो आज्ञा परमप्रभुले आफ्ना अगमवक्ताहरूद्वारा दिनुभएको थियो ।
26 And the Levites stood with the instruments of David, and the priests with the trumpets.
लेवीहरू दाऊदका बाजाहरू र पुजारीहरू तुरहीहरू लिएर खडा भए ।
27 And Hezekiah commanded to offer the burnt offering on the altar. And when the burnt offering began, the song of the LORD began also with the trumpets, and with the instruments ordained by David king of Israel.
हिजकियाले वेदीमा होमबलि वेदीमा चढाउने हुकुम दिए । जब होमबलि सुरु भयो, तब तुरहीहरू र इस्राएलका राजा दाऊदका बाजाहरूका साथमा परमप्रभुको गीत पनि सुरु भयो ।
28 And all the congregation worshipped, and the singers sang, and the trumpeters sounded: and all this continued until the burnt offering was finished.
सारा समुदायले आराधना गरे, गायकहरूले गाए, र तुरही बजाउनेहरूले बजाए । यो काम होमबलि खतम नहोउञ्जेल निरन्तर जारी रह्यो ।
29 And when they had made an end of offering, the king and all that were present with him bowed themselves, and worshipped.
जब तिनीहरूले बलिदान चढाइसके, राजा र तिनीसँग भएका सबैले घोप्टो परे र आराधना गरे ।
30 Moreover Hezekiah the king and the princes commanded the Levites to sing praise to the LORD with the words of David, and of Asaph the seer. And they sang praises with gladness, and they bowed their heads and worshipped.
यसको साथै राजा हिजकिया र तिनका अगुवाहरूले लेवीहरूलाई दाऊद र दर्शी आसापका शब्दमा परमप्रभुको स्तुतिगान गर्न लाए । तिनीहरूले खुसीसाथ स्तुति गाए र घोप्टो परे र आरधना गरे ।
31 Then Hezekiah answered and said, Now you have consecrated yourselves to the LORD, come near and bring sacrifices and thank offerings into the house of the LORD. And the congregation brought in sacrifices and thank offerings; and as many as were of a free heart burnt offerings.
तब हिजकियाले भने, “अब तिमीहरूले परमप्रभुमा आफैलाई अर्पण गरेका छौ । यहाँ आओ र परमप्रभुको मन्दिरमा बलिदान र धन्यवादका बलिहरू ल्याओ ।” समुदायले बलिदानहरू र धन्यवाद बलिहरू ल्याए, र राजीखुशी हृदय हुनेहरू सबैले आआफ्ना होमबलि ल्याए ।
32 And the number of the burnt offerings, which the congregation brought, was three score and ten bullocks, an hundred rams, and two hundred lambs: all these were for a burnt offering to the LORD.
समुदायले ल्याएका होमबलिको संख्या सत्तरी वटा साँढे, एक सय वटा भेडा, र दुई सय वटा थुमा थिए । यी सबै परमप्रभुको निम्ति होमबलि थिए ।
33 And the consecrated things were six hundred oxen and three thousand sheep.
परमप्रभुमा अर्पण गरिएका बलिदानहरू छ सय साँढे र तीन हजार भेडा थिए ।
34 But the priests were too few, so that they could not flay all the burnt offerings: why their brothers the Levites did help them, till the work was ended, and until the other priests had sanctified themselves: for the Levites were more upright in heart to sanctify themselves than the priests.
तर सबै होमबलिका छाला काढ्नका निम्ति पुजारीहरू साह्रै थोरै थिए, यसैले तिनीहरूका दाजुभाइ लेवीहरूले त्यो काम नसिद्धिएसम्म र पुजारीहरूले आफूलाई पवित्र नपारेसम्म तिनीहरूलाई सघाए, किनकि आआफूलाई पवित्र पार्नलाई पुजारीहरूभन्दा लेवीहरू नै बढी होसियार भएका थिए ।
35 And also the burnt offerings were in abundance, with the fat of the peace offerings, and the drink offerings for every burnt offering. So the service of the house of the LORD was set in order.
यसबाहेक, त्यहाँ धेरै होमबलिहरू थिए । मेलबलिको बोसोको साथमा ती चढाइए र हरेक होमबलिको निम्ति त्यहाँ अर्घबलि थिए । यसरी परमप्रभुका मन्दिरको सेवा व्यवस्थित गरियो ।
36 And Hezekiah rejoiced, and all the people, that God had prepared the people: for the thing was done suddenly.
परमेश्वरले मानिसहरूका निम्ति तयार पार्नुभएको कामको कारणले हिजकिया र सबै मानिसहरू आनन्दित भए, किनकि त्यो काम चाँडै नै पूरा भयो ।
