Kings III 13
1 And behold, there came a man of God out of Juda by the word of the Lord to Baethel, and Jeroboam stood at the altar to sacrifice.
परमप्रभुको वचनद्वारा परमेश्वका जन बेथेलमा आए । यारोबाम धूप बाल्नलाई वेदीनेर उभिरहेका थिए ।
2 And he cried against the altar by the word of the Lord, and said, O altar, altar, thus says the Lord, Behold, a son is [to be] born to the house of David, Josias by name; and he shall offer upon you the priests of the high places, [even] of them that sacrifice upon you, and [he] shall burn men's bones upon you.
तिनले परमप्रभुको वचनद्वारा वेदीको विरुद्धमा चिच्च्याए, “हे वेदी, हे वेदी! परमप्रभु यसो भन्नुहुन्छ, 'हेर, दाऊदको घरानामा योशियाह नाउँ गरेको बालकको जन्म हुने छ, र त्यसले तेरो लागि बलिदान चढाउने डाँडाका ठाउँहरूमा पुजारीहरूलाई तँमाथि नै बलिदान चढाउने छ । तँमाथि तिनीहरूले मानिसका हड्डीहरू जलाउने छन्' ।”
3 And in that day one shall give a sign, saying, This [is] the word which the Lord has spoken, saying, Behold, the altar is tore, and the fatness upon it shall be poured out.
तब उही दिन परमेश्वरका जनले यसो भन्दै एउटा चिन्ह दिए, “परमप्रभुले घोषणा गर्नुभएको चिन्ह यही होः हेर, वेदी दुई फक्लेटा हुने छ, र त्यसमाथि भएको खरानीचाहिँ खन्याइने छ' ।”
4 And it came to pass when king Jeroboam heard the words of the man of God who called on the altar that was in Baethel, that the king stretched forth his hand from the altar, saying, Take hold of him. And, behold, his hand, which he stretched forth against him, withered, and he could not draw it back to himself.
बेथेलमा परमेश्वरका जनले वेदीको विरुद्धमा भनेका कुरा जब राजा यारोबामले सुने तिनले वेदीबाट आफ्नो हात पसारेर यसो भने, “त्यसलाई समात्!” तब तिने परमेश्वरको जनलाई समात्न जुन हात पसारेका थिए, त्यो सुक्यो र तिनले त्यो फेरि आफूतिर ल्याउन सकेनन् ।
5 And the altar was tore, and the fatness was poured out from the altar, according to the sign which the man of God gave by the word of the Lord.
(वेदी पनि दुई फक्लेटा भयो, र खरानी वेदीबाट पोखियो जस्तो परमप्रभुको वचनद्वारा परमेश्वरका जनले चिन्हद्वारा व्याख्या गरेका थिए ।)
6 And king Jeroboam said to the man of God, Intreat the Lord your God, and let my hand be restored to me. And the man of God entreated the Lord, and he restored the king's hand to him, and it became as before.
त्यसैले परमेश्वरका जनले परमप्रभुलाई प्रार्थना गरे, र राजाको हात पहिलेकै जस्तो भयो ।
7 And the king said to the man of God, Enter with me into the house, and dine, and I will give you a gift.
राजाले परमेश्वरका जनलाई भने, “मेरो घरमा खानपान गर्नुहोस्, र म तपाईंलाई इनाम दिने छु ।”
8 And the man of God said to the king, If you should give me the half of your house, I would not go in with you, neither will I eat bread, neither will I drink water in this place; for thus the Lord charged me by [his] word, saying,
परमेश्वरका जनले राजालाई भने, “तपाईंले मलाई आधा सम्पत्ति दिनुभए तापनि म तपाईंसित जान्नँ, न यस ठाउँमा तपाईंसित खाने छु न पिउने छु ।
9 Eat no bread, and drink no water, and return not by the way by which you came.
किनकि परमप्रभुले आफ्नो वचनद्वारा मलाई आज्ञा दिनुभएको छ, 'तैँले त्यहाँ रोटी नखानू, न त पानी पिउनू, न तँ आएको बाटो फर्केर जानू' ।”
10 So he departed by another way, and returned not by the way by which he came to Baethel.
त्यसैले परमेश्वरका जन अर्कै बाटो भएर गए, र तिनी जुन बाटो भएर आएका थिए त्यही बाटो भएर आफ्नो घरमा फर्केनन् ।
11 And there lived an old prophet in Baethel; and his sons came and told him all the works that the man of God did on that day in Baethel, and the words which he spoke to the king: and they turned the face of their father.
बेथेलमा एक जना वृद्ध अगमवक्ता बस्थे । त्यस दिन बेथेलमा परमेश्वरका जनले गरेका सबै कुरा अगमवक्ताका एक जना छोराले तिनलाई बताए । परमेश्वरका जन राजासित बोलेका थिए भन्ने कुरा पनि तिनका छोराहरूले तिनलाई बताए ।
12 And their father spoke to them, saying, Which way went he? and his sons show him the way by which the man of God who came out of Juda went up.
तिनीहरूका पिताले तिनीहरूलाई सोधे, “तिनी कुनचाहिँ बाटो लागे?” परमेश्वरका जन यहूदाको बाटो भएर गएका थिए भनी तिनका छोराहरूले देखेका थिए ।
13 And he said to his sons, Saddle me the ass: and they saddled him the ass, and he mounted it,
त्यसैले तिनले आफ्ना छोराहरूलाई भने, “मेरो निम्ति गधामा काठी कस ।” त्यसैले तिनीहरूले गधामा काठी कसी त्यसमा चढेर गए ।
14 and went after the man of God, and found him sitting under an oak: and he said to him, Are you the man of God that came out of Juda? And he said to him, I [am].
ती वृद्ध अगमवक्ता परमेश्वरका जनको पछिपछि गए र तिनलाई फलाँटको रुखमुनि बसिरहेको भेट्टाए, र तिनले भने, “के यहूदाबाट आउनुभएका परमेश्वरका जन तपाईं नै हुनुहुन्छ?” तिनले जवाफ दिए, “हो, म नै हुँ ।”
15 And he said to him, Come with me, and eat bread.
तब ती वृद्ध अगमवक्ताले तिनलाई भने, “मसितै घरमा आउनुहोस् र खानपान गर्नुहोस् ।”
16 And he said, I shall not by any means be able to return with you, neither will I eat bread, neither will I drink water in this place.
परमेश्वरका जनले भने, “म तपाईंसँगै फर्केर जान सक्दिनँ, न त यस ठाउँमा तपाईंसँगै खानपान गर्न सक्छु न पिउन सक्छु ।
17 For thus the Lord commanded me by word, saying, Eat not bread there, and drink not water, and return not there by the way by which you came.
किनकि परमप्रभुको वचनद्वारा मलाई आज्ञा दिइएको छ, 'तैँले त्यहाँ रोटी नखानू, न पानी पिउनू, न तँ आएको बाटो फर्केर जानू' ।”
18 And he said to him, I also am a prophet as you [are]; and an angel spoke to me by the word of the Lord, saying, Bring him back to you into your house, and let him eat bread and drink water: but he lied to him.
त्यसैले ती वृद्ध अगमवक्ताले तिनलाई भने, “तपाईंजस्तै म पनि अगमवक्ता हुँ, र परमप्रभुको वचनद्वारा एउटा स्वर्गदूतले मलाई यसो भने, 'तिनलाई तिमीसँगै घरमा फर्काएर ल्याउनू ताकि तिनले रोटी खान सकून् र पानी पिउन सकून्' ।” तर तिनले परमेश्वरका जनलाई झुट बोल्दै थिए ।
19 And he brought him back, and he ate bread and drank water in his house.
त्यसैले परमेश्वरका जन ती वृद्ध अगमवक्तासँगै फर्केर गए, र तिनको घरमा रोटी खानुका साथै पानी पिए ।
20 And it came to pass while they were sitting at the table, that the word of the Lord came to the prophet that brought him back;
तिनीहरू टेबुलमा बस्दै गर्दा परमप्रभुको वचन तिनलाई फर्काएर ल्याउने अगमवक्ताकहाँ आयो, र
21 and he spoke to the man of God that came out of Juda, saying, Thus says the Lord, Because you have resisted the word of the Lord, and have not kept the commandment which the Lord your God commanded you,
तिनले यहूदबाट आएका परमेश्वरका जनलाई यसो भनेर कराए, “परमप्रभु भन्नुहुन्छ, 'तँ परमप्रभुको वचनप्रति अनाज्ञाकारी भएकोले र परमप्रभुले तँलाई दिनुभएको वचन पालन नगरी
22 but have returned, and eaten bread and drunk water in the place of which he spoke to you, saying, You shall not eat bread, and shall not drink water; [therefore] your body shall in nowise enter into the sepulchre of your fathers.
फर्केर आई यस ठाउँमा रोटी खाएकोले र पानी पिएकोले तेरो शरीरलाई तेरा पित्रहरूको चिहानमा गाडिने छैन किनकि तैँले परमप्रभुले मनाही गर्नुभएको ठाउँमा रोटी खाइस् र पानी पिइस्' ।”
23 And it came to pass after he had eaten bread and drunk water, that he saddled the ass for him, and he turned and departed.
जब ती परमेश्वरका जनले रोटी खाइसके र पानी पिइसके तब अगमवक्ताले तिनीसँगै तिनको घरमा फर्केर आएका परमेश्वरका जनका लागि गधामा जीन काठी कसे ।
24 And a lion found him in the way, and killed him; and his body was cast out in the way, and the ass was standing by it, and the lion [also] was standing by the body.
परमेश्वरका जन गइसकेपछि बाटोमा एउटा सिंहसित तिनको जम्काभेट भयो । सिंहले तिनलाई मारिदियो, र तिनको लाश बाटोमै पडिरह्यो । तब गधा र सिंह लाशको छेउमा उभिएका थिए ।
25 And, behold, men [were] passing by, and saw the carcase cast in the way, and the lion was standing near the carcase: and they went in and spoke [of it] in the city where the old prophet lived.
मानिसहरू त्यो बाटो भएर जाँदा तिनीहरूले बाटोमा लाश छाडिएको र लाशनेर सिंह उभिरहेको देखे । तिनीहरू ती वृद्ध अगमवक्ता बस्ने सहरमा आएर यो कुरा बताइदिए ।
26 And [the prophet] that turned him back out of the way heard, and said, This is the man of God who rebelled against the word of the Lord.
जब तिनलाई फर्काएर ल्याउने अगमवक्ताले यो कुरा सुने तिनले भने, “तिनी परमप्रभुको वचन नमान्ने परमेश्वरका जन हुन् । त्यसकारण परमप्रभुले तिनलाई सिंहको मुखमा पर्न दिनुभयो जसले तिनलाई टुक्राटुक्रा पारी मारिदियो जस्तो परमप्रभुको वचनले तिनलाई चेताउनी दिएको थियो ।”
27 [And he spoke to his sons, saying, Saddle me the ass, and they saddled it. ]
त्यसैले ती वृद्ध अगमवक्ताले आफ्ना छोराहरूलाई यसो भने, “मेरो गधमा जीन काठी कस ।” तिनीहरूले त्यसै गरे ।
28 And he went and found the body cast in the way, and the ass and the lion were standing by the body: and the lion had not devoured the body of the man of God, and had not torn the ass.
तिनी बाटो लागे र तिनले बाटोमा लाश पडिरहेको अनि लाशको छेउमा गधा र सिंह उभिरहेका देखे । सिंहले लाशलाई खाएको थिएन न त गधालाई आक्रमण गरेको थियो ।
29 And the prophet took up the body of the man of God, and laid it on his ass; and the prophet brought him back to his city, to bury him in his own tomb,
अगमवक्ताले परमेश्वरका जनको लाश उठाई गधामा राखे र फर्काएर ल्याए । तिनको निम्ति शोक गर्न र लाशलाई गाड्न तिनी आफ्नै सहरमा आए ।
30 and they bewailed him, [saying], Alas, brother.
तिनले लाशलाई आफ्नै चिहानमा राखे, र तिनीहरूले यसो भन्दै तिनको निम्ति शोक गरे, “धिक्कार, मेरा भाइ!”
31 And it came to pass after he had lamented him, that he spoke to his sons, saying, Whenever I die, bury me in this tomb wherein the man of God is buried; lay me by his bones, that my bones may be preserved with his bones.
तिनले लाशलाई गाडिसकेपछि वृद्ध अगमवक्ताले आफ्ना छोराहरूलाई यसो भने, “जब म मर्छु, मलाई परमेश्वरका जन गाडिएकै चिहानमा गाड्नू । मेरा हड्डीहरू तिनका हड्डीहरूको छेउमा रहून् ।
32 For the word will surely come to pass which he spoke by the word of the Lord against the altar in Baethel, and against the high houses in Samaria.
किनकि तिनले परमप्रभुको वचनद्वारा बेथेलको वेदीको विरुद्धमा र सामरियाका सहरहरूमा भएका सबै डाँडाका ठाउँहरूका घरहरूको विरुद्धमा घोषणा गरेका सन्देश निश्चय नै पुरा हुने छ ।”
33 And after this Jeroboam turned not from his sin, but he turned and made of part of the people priests of the [high places]: whoever would, he consecrated him, and he became a priest for the high places.
यसपछि यारोबाम आफ्नो दुष्ट मार्गबाट फर्केनन्, तर तिनले डाँडाका ठाउँहरूका लागि सबै थरीका मानिसहरूका बिचबाट सामान्य पुजारीहरूलाई नियुक्त गरिरहे । सेवा गर्न चाहने जोसुकैलाई पनि तिनले पुजारीको रूपमा अभिषेक गर्थे ।
34 And this thing became sin to the house of Jeroboam, even to its destruction and its removal from the face of the earth.
यो विषय यारोबामको परिवारको निम्ति पाप बन्यो, र यसले गर्दा तिनको परिवार पृथ्वीबाट नष्ट भएर सर्वनाश भएर गयो ।
