1 Samuel 2
1 And Hannah prayed, and said, My heart rejoiceth in Yhwh, mine horn is exalted in Yhwh: my mouth is enlarged over mine enemies; because I rejoice in thy salvation.
हन्नाहले प्रार्थना गरिन् र यसो भनिन्, “परमप्रभुमा मेरो हृदय आनन्दित हुन्छ । परमप्रभुमा मेरो सीङ उच्च पारिन्छ । मेरो मुखले मेरा शत्रुहरूमाथि गर्भ गर्छ, किनभने म तपाईंको मुक्तिमा आनन्दित हुन्छु ।
2 There is none holy as Yhwh: for there is none beside thee: neither is there any rock like our God.
परमप्रभुझैं पवित्र कोही छैन, किनकि तपाईंबाहेक कोही पनि छैन । हाम्रो परमेश्वरजस्तो कुनै चट्टान छैन ।
3 Talk no more so exceeding proudly; let not arrogancy come out of your mouth: for Yhwh is a God of knowledge, and by him actions are weighed.
यति धैरै घमण्ड गरेर अहंकारी नहो । तेरो मुखबाट अहंकारका कुनै कुरा ननिस्कोस् । किनकि परमप्रभु ज्ञानका परमेश्वर हुनुहुन्छ । उहाँद्वारा नै कामहरू जोखिन्छन् ।
4 The bows of the mighty men are broken, and they that stumbled are girded with strength.
शक्तिशाली मानिसहरूका धनुहरू भाँचिएका छन्, तर ठेस खाएकाहरूले शक्तिलाई कम्मर-पेटीझैं लगाउँछन् ।
5 They that were full have hired out themselves for bread; and they that were hungry ceased: so that the barren hath born seven; and she that hath many children is waxed feeble.
भरिपूर्ण हुनेहरूले आफैलाई ज्यालामा लगाएका छन् । भोकाएकाहरू भोकाउन हुन छोडेका छन् । बाँझीले समेत सात जना सन्तानहरू जन्माउँछिन्, तर धेरै सन्तान हुने स्त्री शिथिल हुन्छिन् ।
परमप्रभुले मार्नुहुन्छ र जीवन दिनुहुन्छ । उहाँले चिहानमा पुर्याउनुहुन्छ र उठाउनुहुन्छ । (Sheol h7585)
7 Yhwh maketh poor, and maketh rich: he bringeth low, and lifteth up.
परमप्रभुले केही मानिसलाई गरीब र केहीलाई धनी बनाउनुहुन्छ । उहाँले नम्र तुल्याउनुहुन्छ, तर उहाँले पनि उचाल्नुहुन्छ ।
8 He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, and lifteth up the beggar from the dunghill, to set them among princes, and to make them inherit the throne of glory: for the pillars of the earth are Yhwh's, and he hath set the world upon them.
उहाँले गरीबलाई धूलोबाट उठाउनुहुन्छ । खाँचोमा परेकाहरूलाई शासकहरूसँग बसाल्न र इज्जको ओहदा पाउने बनाउन उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई खरानीको थुप्रोबाट उठाउनुहुन्छ । किनकि पृथ्वीका जगहरू परमप्रभुका हुन् र उहाँले संसारलाई तिमाथि बसाल्नुभएको छ ।
9 He will keep the feet of his saints, and the wicked shall be silent in darkness; for by strength shall no man prevail.
उहाँले आफ्ना विश्वासयोग्य मानिसहरूका पाउहरूको रक्षा गर्नुहुन्छ, दुष्टहरूलाई अन्धकारको शुन्यतामा राखिनेछ, किनकि बलद्वारा कसैले जित्न सक्नेछैन ।
10 The adversaries of Yhwh shall be broken to pieces; out of heaven shall he thunder upon them: Yhwh shall judge the ends of the earth; and he shall give strength unto his king, and exalt the horn of his anointed.
परमप्रभुको विरोध गर्नेहरू टुक्रा-टुक्रा हुने छन् । तिनीहरूका विरुद्धमा उहाँ स्वर्गबाट गर्जनुहुनेछ । परमप्रभुले पृथ्वीको अन्तसम्म नै न्याय गर्नुहुनेछ । उहाँले आफ्नो राजालाई बल दिनुहुनेछ र आफ्नो अभिषिक्तको सीङ उच्च पार्नुहुनेछ ।
11 And Elkanah went to Ramah to his house. And the child did minister unto Yhwh before Eli the priest.
त्यसपछि एल्काना आफ्नो घर रामामा गए । त्यो बालकले पुजारी एलीको सामु परमप्रभुको सेवा गर्यो ।
12 Now the sons of Eli were sons of Belial; they knew not Yhwh.
यति बेलासम्म एलीका छोराहरू अयोग्य मानिहरू भएका थिए । तिनीहरूले परमप्रभुलाई चिनेनन् ।
13 And the priests’ custom with the people was, that, when any man offered sacrifice, the priest’s servant came, while the flesh was in seething, with a fleshhook of three teeth in his hand;
मानिसहरूसँग पुजारीहरूको चलन यस्तो थियो, जब कुनै मानिसले बलिदान चढाउँथ्यो, तब पुजारीका सेवक मासु उमाल्दै गर्दा नै आफ्नो हातमा त्रिशूलसहित आउँथ्यो ।
14 And he struck it into the pan, or kettle, or caldron, or pot; all that the fleshhook brought up the priest took for himself. So they did in Shiloh unto all the Israelites that came thither.
उसले ताप्के वा कराही वा तसला वा भाँडोमा नै घोच्थ्यो । त्यो त्रिशूलमा आउने सबै पुजारीले आफ्नो निम्ति लान्थ्यो । तिनीहरूले शीलोमा आउने सबै इस्राएलीहरूसँग यसै गर्थे ।
15 Also before they burnt the fat, the priest’s servant came, and said to the man that sacrificed, Give flesh to roast for the priest; for he will not have sodden flesh of thee, but raw.
अझ नराम्रो त, तिनीहरूले बोसो जलाउनअगि नै पुजारीको सेवक आउँथ्यो र बलिदान गरिरहेका मानिसलाई भन्थ्यो, “पुजारीको निम्ति पोल्नलाई मासु देऊ, किनकि तिमीबाट उनले उमालेको मासु स्वीकार गर्नुहुन्न, तर काँचो मात्र लिनुहुन्छ ।”
16 And if any man said unto him, Let them not fail to burn the fat presently, and then take as much as thy soul desireth; then he would answer him, Nay; but thou shalt give it me now: and if not, I will take it by force.
त्यो मानिसले यसो भन्यो भने, “तिनीहरूले पहिले बोसो जलाउनुपर्छ, र तब तपाईंले इच्छा गरेजति लानुहोस् ।” तब उसले भन्थ्यो, “हुँदैन, तिमीले यो मलाई अहिले नै देऊ । होइन भने, मैले जबरजस्ती गरेर लानेछु ।”
17 Wherefore the sin of the young men was very great before Yhwh: for men abhorred the offering of Yhwh.
यी जवानहरूको पाप परमप्रभुको सामु निकै ठुलो थियो, किनकि तिनीहरूले परमप्रभुको बलिदानलाई तुच्छ ठाने ।
18 But Samuel ministered before Yhwh, being a child, girded with a linen ephod.
तर शामूएलले बालकको रूपमा मलमलको एपोद लगाएर परमप्रभुको सेवा गरे ।
19 Moreover his mother made him a little coat, and brought it to him from year to year, when she came up with her husband to offer the yearly sacrifice.
तिनको आमाले आफ्नो पतिको साथमा वार्षिक बलिदान चढाउन आउँदा वर्षैपिच्छे तिनको निम्ति एउटा सानो लुगा बनाउँथिन् र तिनलाई ल्याइदिन्थिन् ।
20 And Eli blessed Elkanah and his wife, and said, Yhwh give thee seed of this woman for the loan which is lent to Yhwh. And they went unto their own home.
एलीले एल्काना र तिनकी पत्नीलाई यसरी आशिष् दिएर भन्थे, “यी स्त्रीले परमप्रभुसँग बिन्ती गरेकी कारणले परमप्रभुले यी स्त्रीद्वारा तिमीहरूलाई धेरै सन्तानहरू देऊन् ।” त्यसपछि तिनीहरू आफ्नो घरमा नै फर्कन्थे ।
21 And Yhwh visited Hannah, so that she conceived, and bare three sons and two daughters. And the child Samuel grew before Yhwh.
परमप्रभुले हन्नाहलाई फेरि सहायता गर्नुभयो र तिनी फेरि गर्भवति भइन् । तिनले तिन छोराहरू र दुई छोरीहरू जन्माइन् । यसैबिच, बालक शमूएल परमप्रभुको सामु बढ्दै गए ।
22 Now Eli was very old, and heard all that his sons did unto all Israel; and how they lay with the women that assembled at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
यति बेला एली निकै वृद्ध भए । तिनले आफ्ना छोराहरूले सबै इस्राएलसँग गरेका सबै कुरा र तिनीहरू भेट हुने पालको प्रवेशद्वारमा सेवा गर्ने स्त्रीहरूसँग कसरी सुते भन्ने कुरा सुने ।
23 And he said unto them, Why do ye such things? for I hear of your evil dealings by all this people.
तिनले उनीहरूलाई भने, “तिमीहरूले किन यस्ता कुराहरू गर्छौ? किनकि मैले तिमीहरूको दुष्ट कामहरू यी सबै मानिसहरूबाट सुन्दैछु ।”
24 Nay, my sons; for it is no good report that I hear: ye make Yhwh's people to transgress.
हुँदैन, ए मेरा छोराहरू हो । किनकि मैले सुनेको कुरा असल खबर होइन । तिमीहरूले परमप्रभुका मानिसहरूलाई अनाज्ञाकारी बनाउँछौ ।
25 If one man sin against another, the judge shall judge him: but if a man sin against Yhwh, who shall intreat for him? Notwithstanding they hearkened not unto the voice of their father, because Yhwh would slay them.
“एक जना मानिसले अर्काको विरुद्ध पाप गर्यो भने, परमेश्वरले उसको न्याय गर्नुहुन्छ, तर मानिसले परमप्रभुको विरुद्ध पाप गर्छ भने, उसको निम्ति कसले बोलिदिन्छ?” तर तिनीहरूले आफ्ना बुबाको कुरा सुनेनन्, किनभने परमप्रभुले तिनीहरूलाई मार्ने इच्छा गर्नुभयो ।
26 And the child Samuel grew on, and was in favour both with Yhwh, and also with men.
बालक शमूएल बढ्दै गए, र परमप्रभु र मानिसहरूको निगाहमा हुर्किए ।
27 And there came a man of God unto Eli, and said unto him, Thus saith Yhwh, Did I plainly appear unto the house of thy father, when they were in Egypt in Pharaoh’s house?
यति बेला परमेश्वरका एक जना मानिस एलीकहाँ आए र तिनलाई भने, “परमप्रभु भन्नुहुन्छ, 'तेरा पुर्खाहरू मिश्रदेशमा फारोको घरमा दासत्वमा हुँदा, के मैले तिनीहरूकहाँ आफूलाई प्रकट गरिन र?
28 And did I choose him out of all the tribes of Israel to be my priest, to offer upon mine altar, to burn incense, to wear an ephod before me? and did I give unto the house of thy father all the offerings made by fire of the children of Israel?
मेरो पुजारी हुन, मेरो वेदीमा जान, र धूप बाल्न र मेरो सामु एपोद लगाउनलाई मैले इस्राएलको सारा कुलहरूबाट उसलाई चुनें । मैले इस्राएलका मानिसहरूले आगोद्वारा चढाएका सबै बलिदानहरू तेरो पुर्खाको घरानालाई दिएँ ।
29 Wherefore kick ye at my sacrifice and at mine offering, which I have commanded in my habitation; and honourest thy sons above me, to make yourselves fat with the chiefest of all the offerings of Israel my people?
तब किन मेरो बासस्थानमा मलाई आवश्यक मेरा बलिदानहरू र भेटीहरूलाई तैंले किन तुच्छ ठान्छस्? इस्राएलका मेरा मानिसहरूको हरेक बलिदानको उत्तम थोकद्वारा आफैलाई मोटो बनाएर तैंले आफ्ना छोराहरूलाई किन मलाई भन्दा बढी आदर गर्छस्?'
30 Wherefore Yhwh God of Israel saith, I said indeed that thy house, and the house of thy father, should walk before me for ever: but now Yhwh saith, Be it far from me; for them that honour me I will honour, and they that despise me shall be lightly esteemed.
किनकि परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्वर भन्नुहुन्छ, 'तेरो घराना र तेरो पुर्खाको घराना सदाको निम्ति मेरो सामु हिंड्नुपर्छ भनी मैले प्रतिज्ञा गरें ।' तर अब परमप्रभु भन्नुहुन्छ, 'यसो गर्ने कुरा मबाट टाढै रहोस्, किनकि मलाई आदर गर्नेलाई म आदर गर्छु, तर जसले मलाई तुच्छ ठान्छ उसको आदर घट्नेछ ।
31 Behold, the days come, that I will cut off thine arm, and the arm of thy father’s house, that there shall not be an old man in thine house.
हेर्, मैले तेरो बल र तेरो पिताको घरानाको बल नाश पार्ने समय आउँदैछ, ताकि तेरो घरानामा कोही वृद्ध मानिस हुनेछैन ।
32 And thou shalt see an enemy in my habitation, in all the wealth which God shall give Israel: and there shall not be an old man in thine house for ever.
मरो बासस्थानमा नै तैले संकष्ट देख्नेछस् । इस्राएललाई असल कुरा दिइए तापनि, तेरो घरानामा कोही वृद्ध मानिस हुनेछैन ।
33 And the man of thine, whom I shall not cut off from mine altar, shall be to consume thine eyes, and to grieve thine heart: and all the increase of thine house shall die in the flower of their age.
आफ्नो वेदीबाट मैले वञ्चित तेरा कुनै पनि व्यक्तिका आँखा धमिलिनेछन् र तेरो जीवनको निम्ति म कष्ट ल्याउनेछु । तेरो परिवारमा जन्मका सबै मानिसहरू मर्नेछन् ।
34 And this shall be a sign unto thee, that shall come upon thy two sons, on Hophni and Phinehas; in one day they shall die both of them.
तेरा दुई छोराहरू होप्नी र पीनहासमाथि आईपर्ने चिन्ह यो हुनेछः तिनीहरू दुवै एकै दिनमा मर्नेछन् ।
35 And I will raise me up a faithful priest, that shall do according to that which is in mine heart and in my mind: and I will build him a sure house; and he shall walk before mine anointed for ever.
म आफ्नो निम्ति एक जना विश्वासयोग्य पुजारी नियक्त गर्नेछु जसले मेरो हृदय र मेरो प्राणमा जे छ सो गर्नेछ । उसको घराना निर्माण गर्नेछु, अनि ऊ नै मेरो अभिषिक्त राजाको सामु सधैं हिंड्नेछ ।
36 And it shall come to pass, that every one that is left in thine house shall come and crouch to him for a piece of silver and a morsel of bread, and shall say, Put me, I pray thee, into one of the priests’ offices, that I may eat a piece of bread.
तेरो घरानामा बाँकी रहेका हरेक मानिस चाँदीको एक टुक्रा र रोटीको एक टुक्रा माग्न उसकहाँ आउनेछन् र घोप्टो पर्नेछन् र यसो भन्नेछन्, “कृपया, मलाई पनि पुजारीको कुनै काम दिनुहोस्, ताकि म पनि एक टुक्रा खान पाउनेछु ।”
