< Judges 12 >

1 AND the men of Ephraim gathered themselves together, and went northward, and said unto Jephthah, Wherefore passedst thou over to fight against the children of Ammon, and didst not call us to go with thee? we will burn thine house upon thee with fire.
एफ्राइमका मानिसहरूका निम्ति एउटा बोलावट आयो । तिनीहरू सापोनको बाटो गए र यिप्‍तालाई भने, “अम्मोनका मानिसहरूसँग युद्ध गर्न तिमी किन गयौ र तिमीसँगै जान हामीलाई तिमीले किन बोलाएनौ? हामी तिम्रो घरलाई तिमीसँगै जलाइदिनेछौं ।”
2 And Jephthah said unto them, I and my people were at great strife with the children of Ammon; and when I called you, ye delivered me not out of their hands.
यिप्‍ताले तिनीहरूलाई भने, “म र मेरा मानिसहरू अम्मोनका मानिहरूसँग ठुलो झगडामा थियौं । जब मैले तिमीहरूलाई बोलाएँ, तिमीहरूले मलाई तिनीहरूबाट बचाएनौ ।
3 And when I saw that ye delivered me not, I put my life in my hands, and passed over against the children of Ammon, and the Lord delivered them into my hand: wherefore then are ye come up unto me this day, to fight against me?
तिमीहरूले मलाई बचाउन नआएको जब मैले देखें, तब मैले आफ्‍नो प्राणलाई आफ्नै हातमा राखें र आम्मोनका मानिसहरूका विरुद्धमा गएँ, र परमप्रभुले मलाई विजय दिनुभयो । तिमीहरू आज मेरो विरुद्धमा युद्ध लड्न किन आएका छौ?”
4 Then Jephthah gathered together all the men of Gilead, and fought with Ephraim: and the men of Gilead smote Ephraim, because they said, Ye Gileadites are fugitives of Ephraim among the Ephraimites, and among the Manassites.
यिप्‍ताले गिलादका सबै मानिसहरूलाई भेला गराए र एफ्राइमको विरुद्ध युद्ध लडे । गिलादका मानिसहरूले एफ्राइमका मानिसहरूलाई आक्रमण गरे किनभने तिनीहरूले यसो भने, “तिमीहरू, गिलादीहरू एफ्राइम— एफ्राइम र मनश्शेमाबाट भागेर गएकाहरू हौ ।”
5 And the Gileadites took the passages of Jordan before the Ephraimites: and it was so, that when those Ephraimites which were escaped said, Let me go over; that the men of Gilead said unto him, Art thou an Ephraimite? If he said, Nay;
गिलादीहरूले एफ्राइमतर्फ जाने यर्दनका जँघारहरू कब्जा गरे । जब एफ्राइमका बाँचेकाहरूले यसो भने, “मलाई नदीपारि जान दिनुहोस्,” गिलादका मानिसहरूले त्यसलाई यस्तो भन्थे, “के तँ एफ्राइमी होस्?” त्यसले “होइनँ” भन्यो भने,
6 Then said they unto him, Say now Shibboleth: and he said Sibboleth: for he could not frame to pronounce it right. Then they took him, and slew him at the passages of Jordan: and there fell at that time of the Ephraimites forty and two thousand.
अनि तिनीहरूले त्यसलाई भन्थे, “शिब्बोलेत भन्,” र उसले “सिब्बोलेत” भन्यो भने (किनकि उसले त्यो शब्द सही उच्‍चारण गर्न सक्दैनथियो), तब गिलादीहरूले त्यसलाई समाउँथे र उसलाई यर्दनको जँघारहरूमा मार्थे । त्यस बेला एफ्राइमका बयालिस हजार जना मारिए ।
7 And Jephthah judged Israel six years. Then died Jephthah the Gileadite, and was buried in one of the cities of Gilead.
यिप्‍ताले इस्राएलका न्यायकर्ता भएर छ वर्षसम्‍म सेवा गरे । तब गिलादी यिप्‍ता मरे र गिलादका सहरहरूमध्‍ये एउटा सहरमा दफन गरियो ।
8 And after him Ibzan of Beth-lehem judged Israel.
तिनीपछि, बेथलेहेमका इब्सानले इस्राएलमा न्यायकर्ताका रूपमा सेवा गरे ।
9 And he had thirty sons, and thirty daughters, whom he sent abroad, and took in thirty daughters from abroad for his sons. And he judged Israel seven years.
तिनका तिस जना छोरा थिए । तिनले आफ्ना तिस जना छोरीहरूका विवाह गरिदिए, र आफ्ना छोराहरूका निम्ति बाहिरबाट अरू मानिसहरूका तिस जान छोरीहरू ल्याए । उनले सात वर्षसम्‍म इस्राएलको न्याय गरे ।
10 Then died Ibzan, and was buried at Beth-lehem.
इब्सान मरे र तिनलाई बेथलेहेममा दफन गरियो ।
11 And after him Elon, a Zebulonite, judged Israel; and he judged Israel ten years.
तिनीपछि जबूलूनी एलोनले इस्राएलमा न्यायकर्ताका रूपमा सेवा गरे । उनले दश वर्षसम्‍म इस्राएलको न्याय गरे ।
12 And Elon the Zebulonite died, and was buried in Aijalon in the country of Zebulun.
जबूलूनी एलोन मरे र उनलाई जबूलून देशको अय्यालोनमा दफन गरियो ।
13 And after him Abdon the son of Hillel, a Pirathonite, judged Israel.
तिनीपछि, पिरातोनी हिल्लेलका छोरा अब्दोनले इस्राएलमा न्यायकर्ताका रूपमा सेवा गरे ।
14 And he had forty sons and thirty nephews, that rode on threescore and ten ass colts: and he judged Israel eight years.
उनका चालिस छोरा र तिस नातिहरू थिए । तिनीहरू सत्तरीवटा गधाहरूमा सवार हुन्थे, र तिनले इस्राएलमा आठ वर्षसम्‍म न्याय गरे ।
15 And Abdon the son of Hillel the Pirathonite died, and was buried in Pirathon in the land of Ephraim, in the mount of the Amalekites.
पिरातोनी हिल्लेलका छोरा अब्दोन मरे र तिनलाई अमालेकीहरूको पहाडी देशमा एफ्राइमको पिरातोन इलाकामा दफन गरियो ।
