Judges 13
1 And the children of Israel did evil again in the sight of Yhwh; And Yhwh delivered them into the hand of the Philistines forty years.
इस्राएलका मानिसहरूले फेरि परमप्रभुको दृष्टिमा जे कुरा खराब थियो त्यही गरे, र उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई पलिश्तीहरूका हातमा चालिस वर्षसम्म सुम्पनुभयो ।
2 And there was a certain man of Zorah, of the family of the Danites, whose name was Manoah; and his wife was barren, and bare not.
त्यहाँ सोराबाट आएका दानको वंशका एक जना मानिस थिए, तिनको नाउँ मानोह थियो । तिनकी पत्नी गर्भवती हुन सकेकी थिइनन् र यसैले तिनले जन्म दिएकी थिइनन् ।
3 And the angel of Yhwh appeared unto the woman, and said unto her, Behold now, thou art barren, and bearest not: but thou shalt conceive, and bear a son.
परमप्रभुका एउटा दूत ती स्त्रीकहाँ देखा परे र तिनलाई भने, “तिमी गर्भवती हुन सकेकी छैनौ, र तिमीले जन्म दिएकी छैनौ, तर तिमी गर्भवती हुनेछौ र तिमीले एउटा छोरो जमाउनेछौ ।
4 Now therefore beware, I pray thee, and drink not wine nor strong drink, and eat not any unclean thing:
अब दाखमद्य वा कडा पेय नपिउन होसियार होऊ, र कुनै अशुद्ध कुरा नखाऊ ।
5 For, lo, thou shalt conceive, and bear a son; and no razor shall come on his head: for the child shall be a Nazarite unto God from the womb: and he shall begin to deliver Israel out of the hand of the Philistines.
हेर, तिमी गर्भवती हुनेछौ र एउटा छोरो जन्माउनेछौ । उसको कपालमा छुरा लाग्नेछैन, किनकि त्यो बालक गर्भदेखि नै परमेश्वरको निम्ति नाजिरी हुनेछ, र उसले इस्राएललाई पलिश्तीहरूका हातबाट छुटकारा दिन सुरु गर्नेछ ।”
6 Then the woman came and told her husband, saying, A man of God came unto me, and his countenance was like the countenance of an angel of God, very terrible: but I asked him not whence he was, neither told he me his name:
तब ती स्त्री आइन् र आफ्नो पतिलाई भनिन्, “परमप्रभुका एक जना मानिस मकहाँ आउनुभयो, र उहाँको मुहार परमेश्वरका दूतका झैं धेरै डरलाग्दो थियो । उहाँ कहाँबाट आउनुभएको हो भनेर मैले सोधिनँ, र उहाँले मलाई आफ्नो नाउँ भन्नुभएन ।
7 But he said unto me, Behold, thou shalt conceive, and bear a son; and now drink no wine nor strong drink, neither eat any unclean thing: for the child shall be a Nazarite to God from the womb to the day of his death.
उहाँले मलाई भन्नुभयो, ‘हेर, तिमी गर्भवती हुनेछौ, र तिमीले एउटा छोरो जन्माउनेछौ । यसैले दाखमद्य वा कडा पेय नपिउनू, र व्यवस्थाले अशुद्ध भनेर घोषणा गरेको कुनै कुरा नखानू, किनभने त्यो बालक तिम्रो गर्भदेखि उसको मृत्युको दिनसम्म नै परमप्रभुको निम्ति नाजिरी हुनेछ ।’”
8 Then Manoah intreated Yhwh, and said, O my Lord, let the man of God which thou didst send come again unto us, and teach us what we shall do unto the child that shall be born.
त्यसपछि मानोहले परमप्रभुसँग प्रार्थना गरे र यसो भने, “हे, परमप्रभु, तपाईंले पठाउनुभएका परमेश्वरका मानिसलाई फेरि हामीकहाँ पठाइदिनुहोस् ताकि अब छिटै जन्मने बालकलाई हामीले के गर्नुपर्छ भनेर उहाँले हामीलाई सिकाउन सकून् ।”
9 And God hearkened to the voice of Manoah; and the angel of God came again unto the woman as she sat in the field: but Manoah her husband was not with her.
परमेश्वरले मानोहको पुकार सुन्नुभयो, र परमेश्वरका दूत फेरि ती स्त्रीकहाँ तिनी मैदानमा बसिरहँदा देखा परे । तर मानोह तिनका पति तिनीसँग थिएनन् ।
10 And the woman made haste, and ran, and shewed her husband, and said unto him, Behold, the man hath appeared unto me, that came unto me the other day.
यसैले ती स्त्री दौडेर गईन् र आफ्ना पतिलाई बताइन्, “हेर्नुहोस्, ती मानिस, जो मकहाँ हिजो आउनुभएको थियो उहाँ फेरि मकहाँ देखापर्नुभएको छ!”
11 And Manoah arose, and went after his wife, and came to the man, and said unto him, Art thou the man that spakest unto the woman? And he said, I am.
मानोह उठे र आफ्नी पत्नीको पछिपछि गए । जब तिनी ती मानिसकहाँ आए, तिनले भने, “के मेरी पत्नीसँग बोल्ने मानिस तपाईं नै हुनुहुन्छ?” ती मानिसले भने, “हो, मै हुँ ।”
12 And Manoah said, Now let thy words come to pass. How shall we order the child, and how shall we do unto him?
यसैले मानोहले भने, “तपाईंका वचन पुरा होऊन् । त्यो बालकको निम्ति नियमहरू के हुनेछन्, र उसको काम के हुनेछ?”
13 And the angel of Yhwh said unto Manoah, Of all that I said unto the woman let her beware.
परमप्रभुका दूतले मानोहलाई भने, “मैले तिनलाई भनेका हरेक कुरा तिनले ध्यानपुर्वक गर्नुपर्छ ।
14 She may not eat of any thing that cometh of the vine, neither let her drink wine or strong drink, nor eat any unclean thing: all that I commanded her let her observe.
दाखको बोटबाट आउने केही पनि तिनले खानुहुँदैन, र तिनले दाखमद्य वा कडा पेय पिउन वा कुनै अशुद्ध कुरा खान नदिनू । मैले तिनलाई गर्नू भनी आज्ञा गरेका सबै कुरा तिनले पालना गर्नुपर्छ ।”
15 And Manoah said unto the angel of Yhwh, I pray thee, let us detain thee, until we shall have made ready a kid for thee.
मानोहले परमप्रभुका दूतलाई भने, “कृपया केही समय बस्नुहोस्, र तपाईंको निम्ति एउटा पाठो तयार गर्न हामीलाई समय मिल्नेछ ।”
16 And the angel of Yhwh said unto Manoah, Though thou detain me, I will not eat of thy bread: and if thou wilt offer a burnt offering, thou must offer it unto Yhwh. For Manoah knew not that he was an angel of Yhwh.
परमप्रभुका दूतले मानोहलाई भने, “म बसें भने पनि म तिम्रो भोजन खानेछैनँ । तर तिमी होमबलि तयार गर्छौ भने, त्यो परमप्रभुलाई चढाउनू ।” (उनी परमप्रभुका दूत थिए भनेर मानोहलाई थाहा थिएन ।)
17 And Manoah said unto the angel of Yhwh, What is thy name, that when thy sayings come to pass we may do thee honour?
मानोहले परमप्रभुका दूतलाई भने, “तपाईंको नाउँ के हो, ताकि तपाईंको वचन पुरा हुँदा हामी तपाईंलाई सम्मान गर्न सकौं?”
18 And the angel of Yhwh said unto him, Why askest thou thus after my name, seeing it is secret?
परमप्रभुका दूतले उनलाई भने, “तिमी किन मेरो नाउँ सोध्छौ? त्यो आश्चर्यपूर्ण छ!”
19 So Manoah took a kid with a grain offering, and offered it upon a rock unto Yhwh: and the angel did wondrously; and Manoah and his wife looked on.
यसैले मानोहले अन्नबलिसित एउटा पाठो लिए र ती परमप्रभुलाई एउटा चट्टानमा चढाए । मानोह र तिनकी पत्नीले हेरिरहँदा उहाँले केही आश्चर्य काम गर्नुभयो ।
20 For it came to pass, when the flame went up toward heaven from off the altar, that the angel of Yhwh ascended in the flame of the altar. And Manoah and his wife looked on it, and fell on their faces to the ground.
जब वेदीबाट आगो माथि आकाशतर्फ गयो, तब परमप्रभुका दूत वेदीको आगोमा माथि गए । मानोह र तिनकी पत्नीले यो देखे र आफ्नो मुहार भुइँमा घोप्टो पारे ।
21 But the angel of Yhwh did no more appear to Manoah and to his wife. Then Manoah knew that he was an angel of Yhwh.
परमप्रभुका दूत मानोह वा उनकी पत्नीकहाँ फेरि देखा परेनन् । तब मानोहलाई तिनी परमप्रभुका दूत रहेछन् भनेर थाहा भयो ।
22 And Manoah said unto his wife, We shall surely die, because we have seen God.
मानोहले आफ्नी पत्नीलाई भने, “हामी निश्चय नै मर्नेछौं, किनभने हामीले परमेश्वरलाई देखेका छौं!”
23 But his wife said unto him, If Yhwh were pleased to kill us, he would not have received a burnt offering and a grain offering at our hands, neither would he have shewed us all these things, nor would as at this time have told us such things as these.
तर तिनकी पत्नीले तिनलाई भनिन्, “परमप्रभुले हामीलाई मार्ने इच्छा गर्नुभएको भए, उहाँले हामीले अर्पण गरेका होमबलि र अन्नबलि ग्रहण गर्नुहुन्नथ्यो । उहाँले हामीलाई यी सबै कुराहरू देखाउनुन्नथ्यो, न त उहाँले यो समय हामीलाई यी कुराहरू भन्नुहुन्थ्यो ।”
24 And the woman bare a son, and called his name Samson: and the child grew, And Yhwh blessed him.
पछि ती स्त्रीले एउटा छोरो जन्माइन्, र तिनको नाउँ शिमशोन राखिन् । त्यो बालक बढ्दै गयो र परमप्रभुले उसलाई आशिष् दिनुभयो ।
25 And the Spirit of Yhwh began to move him at times in the camp of Dan between Zorah and Eshtaol.
परमप्रभुको आत्माले तिनलाई सोरा र एश्तोलको बिच महनेह-दानमा उत्तेजित पार्न सुरु गर्नुभयो ।
