2 Samuel 21
1 Then there was a famine in the days of David three years, year after year; and David inquired of the LORD. And the LORD answered, It is for Saul, and for his bloody house, because he slew the Gibeonites.
दाऊदको समयमा तीन वर्षसम्म अनकाल पर्यो र दाऊदले परमप्रभुको मुहारको खोजी गरे । त्यसैले परमप्रभुले भन्नुभयो, “यो अनिकाल शाऊल र तिनका हत्यारा परिवारको कारणले भएको हो, किनभने त्यसले गोबोनीहरूलाई मार्यो ।”
2 And the king called the Gibeonites, and said to them; (now the Gibeonites were not of the children of Israel, but of the remnant of the Amorites; and the children of Israel had sworn to them: and Saul sought to slay them in his zeal to the children of Israel and Judah.)
अब गिबोनीहरूचाहिं इस्राएलका मानिसहरू थिएनन् । तिनीहरू बाँकी रहेका एमोरीमध्येका थिए । इस्राएलका मानिसहरूले तिनीहरूलाई नमार्ने शपथ खाएका थिए, तर शाऊलले इस्राएल र यहूदाको मानिसहरूको निम्तिको जोशले गर्दा तिनीहरू सबैलाई मार्ने कोसिस गरे ।
3 Why David said to the Gibeonites, What shall I do for you? and with which shall I make the atonement, that you may bless the inheritance of the LORD?
त्यसैले दाऊदले गिबोनीहरूलाई एकसाथ बोलाए र तिनीहरूलाई भने, “मैले तिमीहरूको निम्ति के गर्नुपर्छ? मैले कसरी प्रायश्चित गर्न सक्छु, ताकि परमप्रभुको भलाइ र प्रतिज्ञा पाएका उहाँका मानिसहरूलाई तिमीहरूले आशिष् दिन सक्छौ?”
4 And the Gibeonites said to him, We will have no silver nor gold of Saul, nor of his house; neither for us shall you kill any man in Israel. And he said, What you shall say, that will I do for you.
गिबोनीहरूले तिनलाई जवाफ दिए, “हामी र शाऊल वा तिनका परिवारका बिचमा सुन वा चाँदीका कुरा होइन । यसै गरी हामीले इस्राएलका कुनै मानिसलाई मार्ने होइन ।” दाऊदले जवाफ दिए, “मैले तिमीहरूको निम्ति के गर्नुपर्छ, तिमीहरू के भन्छौ?”
5 And they answered the king, The man that consumed us, and that devised against us that we should be destroyed from remaining in any of the coasts of Israel,
तिनीहरूले राजालाई जवाफ दिए, “हामी सबैलाई मार्न खोज्ने मानिस जसले हाम्रो विरुद्ध षड्यान्त्र गरे, ताकि हामी अहिले नाश भएका छौं र इस्राएलको सिमानाभित्र हाम्रो स्थान छैन,
6 Let seven men of his sons be delivered to us, and we will hang them up to the LORD in Gibeah of Saul, whom the LORD did choose. And the king said, I will give them.
तिनको सन्तानबाट सात जना मानिसलाई हामीकहाँ सुम्पियोस् र हामीले तिनीहरूलाई परमप्रभुद्वारा चुनिएको शाऊलको गिबामा परमप्रभुको सामु झुन्ड्याउने छौं ।” त्यसैले राजाले भने, “म तिमीहरूलाई ती दिने छु ।”
7 But the king spared Mephibosheth, the son of Jonathan the son of Saul, because of the LORD’s oath that was between them, between David and Jonathan the son of Saul.
तर दाऊद र शाऊलका छोरा जोनाथन, तिनीहरूका बिचमा भएको परमप्रभुको शपथको कारणले गर्दा राजाले जोनाथनका छोरा मपीबोशेतलाई छोडिदिए ।
8 But the king took the two sons of Rizpah the daughter of Aiah, whom she bore to Saul, Armoni and Mephibosheth; and the five sons of Michal the daughter of Saul, whom she brought up for Adriel the son of Barzillai the Meholathite:
तर राजाले अय्याकी छोरी रिश्पाका दुई जना छोराला जसलाई त्यसले शाऊलबाट जन्माएकी थिई उनीहरूको नाउँ आरमोनी र मपीबोशेत थियो । अनि दाऊदले महिलोती बर्जिल्लैका छोरा अद्रीएलबाट शाऊलकी छोरी मेराबले जन्माएकी पाँच जना छोरालाई लिए ।
9 And he delivered them into the hands of the Gibeonites, and they hanged them in the hill before the LORD: and they fell all seven together, and were put to death in the days of harvest, in the first days, in the beginning of barley harvest.
तिनले उनीहरूलाई गिबोनीहरूको हातमा सुम्पे । तिनीहरूले उनीहरूलाई परमप्रभुको सामु पहाडमा झुण्डाए र उनीहरू सातै जना एकसाथ मरे । उनीहरूलाई जौको कटनीको सुरुमा कटनी गर्ने सुरुका दिनहरूमा मारिएका थिए ।
10 And Rizpah the daughter of Aiah took sackcloth, and spread it for her on the rock, from the beginning of harvest until water dropped on them out of heaven, and suffered neither the birds of the air to rest on them by day, nor the beasts of the field by night.
अय्याकी छोरी रिश्पाले भाङ्ग्रा लिइन् र ती लाशहरूको छेउमा आफ्नो निम्ति त्यो ओछ्याएर कटनीको सुरुदेखि आकाशबाट तिनीहरूमाथि पानी नपरेसम्म नै बसिराखिन् । तिनले ती लाशहरूलाई दिनमा आकाशमा उड्ने चराहरूलाई र रातमा जङ्गली पशुहरूलाई खान दिइनन् ।
11 And it was told David what Rizpah the daughter of Aiah, the concubine of Saul, had done.
अय्याकी छोरी, शाऊलकी उपपत्नी रिश्पाले जे गरेकी थिइन् त्यसको बारेमा दाऊदलाई भनियो ।
12 And David went and took the bones of Saul and the bones of Jonathan his son from the men of Jabeshgilead, which had stolen them from the street of Bethshan, where the Philistines had hanged them, when the Philistines had slain Saul in Gilboa:
त्यसैले दाऊद गए र शाऊल र तिनका छोरा जोनाथनका हाड्डीहरू याबेश-गिलादका मानिसहरूबाट लिएर आए, जसले बेथ-शानको चोकबाट ती चोरेका थिए, जहाँ पलिश्तीहरूले शाऊललाई गिल्बोमा मरेपछि ती पलिश्तीहरूले उनीहरूलाई झुण्ड्याएका थिए ।
13 And he brought up from there the bones of Saul and the bones of Jonathan his son; and they gathered the bones of them that were hanged.
दाऊदले त्यहाँबाट शाऊल र तिनका छोरा जोनाथनका हड्डीहरू लिएर गए र तिनीहरूले झुण्ड्याइएका ती सात जना मानिसका हड्डीहरू पनि जम्मा गरे ।
14 And the bones of Saul and Jonathan his son buried they in the country of Benjamin in Zelah, in the sepulcher of Kish his father: and they performed all that the king commanded. And after that God was entreated for the land.
तिनीहरूले शाऊल र तिनका छोरा जोनाथनका हड्डीहरू बेन्यामीनको गाउँमा सलामा भएको तिनका बुबा कीशको चिहानमा गाडे । राजाले आज्ञा गरेका सबै कुरा तिनीहरूले गरे । त्यसपछि देशको निम्ति तिनीहरूका प्रार्थनाहरूका जवाफ परमेश्वरले दिनुभयो ।
15 Moreover the Philistines had yet war again with Israel; and David went down, and his servants with him, and fought against the Philistines: and David waxed faint.
त्यसपछि पलिश्तीहरू फेरि इस्राएलको विरुद्धमा युद्ध गर्न गए । त्यसैले दाऊद आफ्नो फौजका साथमा तल गए र पलिश्तीहरूको विरुद्ध लडे । दाऊद युद्धको थकानले लखतरान भएका थिए ।
16 And Ishbibenob, which was of the sons of the giant, the weight of whose spear weighed three hundred shekels of brass in weight, he being girded with a new sword, thought to have slain David.
दैत्यका सन्तान इश्बी-बनिबले दाऊदलाई मार्न खोजे, जसको काँसाको भालाको तौल साँढे तीन किलो थियो र नयाँ तरवार भिरेको थियो ।
17 But Abishai the son of Zeruiah succored him, and smote the Philistine, and killed him. Then the men of David swore to him, saying, You shall go no more out with us to battle, that you quench not the light of Israel.
तर सरूयाहका छोरा अबीशैले दाऊदलाई बचाए, त्यो पलिश्तीलाई आक्रमण गरे र त्यसलाई मारे । तब दाऊदका मानिसहरूले तिनीसँग यसो भनेर शपथ खाए, “तपाईं अबदेखि हामीसित लडाइँमा जानुहुने छैन, ताकि तपाईंले इस्राएलको बत्ती निबाउनुहन्न ।”
18 And it came to pass after this, that there was again a battle with the Philistines at Gob: then Sibbechai the Hushathite slew Saph, which was of the sons of the giant.
यसपछि फेरि पनि गोबमा पलिश्तीहरूसँग युद्ध भयो, त्यस बेला हूशाती सिब्बकैले सफलाई मारे जो रफाको सन्तानमध्ये एक थिए ।
19 And there was again a battle in Gob with the Philistines, where Elhanan the son of Jaareoregim, a Bethlehemite, slew the brother of Goliath the Gittite, the staff of whose spear was like a weaver’s beam.
गोबमा फेरि पनि पलिश्तीहरूसँग लडाइँ भयो, त्यस बेला बेथलेहेमवासी यारे-ओरगिमका छोरा गोल्यातलाई मारे, जसको भालाको बिंड जुलाहाको डण्डाजस्तै थियो ।
20 And there was yet a battle in Gath, where was a man of great stature, that had on every hand six fingers, and on every foot six toes, four and twenty in number; and he also was born to the giant.
गातमा फेरि अर्को लडाइँ भयो, त्यहाँ हरेक हातमा छ-छ वटा औंला र हरेक खुट्टामा पनि छ-छ वटा औंला गरी चौबिस वटा औंला भएका निकै अग्लो मानिस थियो । त्यो पनि रफाको सन्तान नै थियो ।
21 And when he defied Israel, Jonathan the son of Shimeah the brother of David slew him.
त्यसले इस्राएलको अपमान गर्दा दाऊदका दाजु शिमाहका छोरा जोनाथनले त्यसलाई मार्यो ।
22 These four were born to the giant in Gath, and fell by the hand of David, and by the hand of his servants.
गातको रफाका सन्तानहरू यी नै थिए, र तिनीहरू दाऊदका हातद्वारा र तिनका सिपाहरूका हातद्वारा मारिए ।
