< Kings III 1 >
1 And king David [was] old and advanced in days, and they covered him with clothes, and he was not warmed.
जब राजा दाऊद वृद्ध भए र तिनको उमेर ढल्किसकेको थियो, तिनीहरूले तिनलाई कम्बल ओढाइदिँदा पनि तिनलाई न्यानो हुँदैनथ्यो ।
2 And his servants said, Let them seek for the king a young virgin, and she shall wait on the king, and cherish him, and lie with him, and my lord the king shall be warmed.
त्यसैले तिनका सेवकहरूले तिनलाई भने, “हाम्रा मालिक राजाको लागि एउटी कन्या केटी खोजौँ । त्यसले राजाको सेवा गरोस् र उहाँको वास्ता गरोस् । त्यसले हाम्रा मालिक राजालाई न्यायो पार्न त्यो उहाँसित सुतोस् ।”
3 So they sought for a fair damsel out of all the coasts of Israel; and they found Abisag the Somanite, and they brought her to the king.
त्यसैले तिनीहरूले इस्राएलका सारा सिमानाभित्र एउटी सुन्दरी स्त्रीको खोजी गरे । तिनीहरूले शूनम्मी अबीशगलाई फेला पारी राजाकहाँ ल्याए ।
4 And the damsel was extremely beautiful, and she cherished the king, and ministered to him, but the king knew her not.
केटी अत्यन्तै सुन्दरी थिइन् । उनले राजाको सेवा गरिन् र तिनको वास्ता गरिन्, तर राजाले उनीसित सहवास गरेनन् ।
5 And Adonias the son of Aggith exalted himself, saying, I will be king; and he prepared for himself chariots and horses, and fifty men to run before him.
त्यस बेला हग्गीतका छोरा अदोनियाहले “म राजा हुने छु” भन्दै आफैलाई उचाले । त्यसैले तिनले पचास जना मानिससँगै रथहरू र घोडचढीहरू आफ्नो अगि दगुर्न तयार पारे ।
6 And his father never at any time checked him, saying, Why have you done [thus]? and he was also very handsome in appearance, and his mother bore him after Abessalom.
“तैँले किन यस्तो व्यवहार गरेको?” भनी तिनका पिताले तिनलाई कहिल्यै सोधेनन् । अदोनियाह आफै पनि अत्यन्तै सुन्दर मानिस थिए र तिनी अब्शालोमभन्दा पछि जन्मेका थिए ।
7 And he conferred with Joab the son of Saruia, and with Abiathar the priest, and they followed after Adonias.
अदोनियाहले सरूयाहका छोरा योआब र पुजारी अबियाथारसित सरसल्लाह लिए । तिनीहरूले अदोनियाहलाई पछ्याएर तिनको मदत गरे ।
8 But Sadoc the priest, and Banaeas the son of Jodae, and Nathan the prophet, and Semei, and Resi, and the mighty men of David, did not follow Adonias.
तर पुजारी सादोक, यहोयादाका छोरा बनायाह, नातान अगमवक्ता, शिमी, रेई र दाऊदका शक्तिशाली मानिसहरूचाहिँ अदोनियाहतर्फ लागेनन् ।
9 And Adonias sacrificed sheep and calves and lambs by the stone of Zoelethi, which was near Rogel: and he called all his brethren, and all the adult [men] of Juda, servants of the king.
अदोनियाले एन-रोगेलको छेउमा अवस्थित जोहेलेत भन्ने ढुङ्गानेर भेडा, गोरु र पोसिएका बाछाहरू बलिदान चढाए । तिनले आफ्ना सबै दाजुभाइ, राजा छोराहरू र यहूदाका सबै मानिसलगायत राजाका सेवकहरूलाई निमन्त्रणा दिए ।
10 But Nathan the prophet, and Banaeas, and the mighty [men], and Solomon his brother, he did not call.
तर तिनले नातान अगमवक्ता, बनायाह, शक्तिशाली मानिसहरू र आफ्ना भाइ सोलोमनलाई निमन्त्रणा दिएनन् ।
11 And Nathan spoke to Bersabee the mother of Solomon, saying, Hast you not heard that Adonias the son of Aggith reigns, and our lord David knows it not?
तब नातानले सोलोमनकी आमा बतशेबालाई यसो भन्दै सोधे, “हाम्रा मालिक दाऊदलाई थाहै नदिई हग्गीतका छोरा अदोनियाह राजा भएका छन् भन्ने कुरा के तपाईंले सुन्नुभएको छैन?”
12 And now come, let me, I pray, give you counsel, and you shall rescue your life, and the life of your son Solomon.
त्यसकारण, तपाईंले आफ्नै जीवन र तपाईंका छोरा सोलोमनको जीवन बचाउन सक्नुभएको होस् भनेर म अब तपाईंलाई सल्लाह दिन चाहन्छु ।
13 Haste, and go in to king David, and you shall speak to him, saying, Hast not you, my lord, O king, sworn to your handmaid, saying, Your son Solomon shall reign after me, and he shall sit upon my throne? why then does Adonias reign?
राजा दाऊदकहाँ गएर भन्नहोस्, ‘मेरा मालिक राजा, के तपाईंले आफ्नो सेवकलाई “निश्चय नै मपछि तिम्रो छोराले शासन गर्ने छ र त्यो नै मेरो सिंहासनमा बस्ने छ” भनी तपाईंले मसित शपथ खानुभएको होइन र? त्यसो भए, किन अदोनियाहले शासन गर्दै छन् त?’
14 And behold, while you are still speaking there with the king, I also will come in after you, and will confirm your words.
तपाईंले राजासित बोलिरहनुहुँदा म तपाईंको पछिपछि भित्र आउने छु र तपाईंको कुरा पुष्टि गरिदिने छु ।”
15 So Bersabee went in to the king into the chamber: and the king was very old, and Abisag the Somanite was ministering to the king.
त्यसैले बतशेबा राजाको कोठामा गइन् । राजा अत्यन्तै वृद्ध भइसकेका थिए, र शूनम्मी अबीशगले राजाको सेवा गर्दै थिइन् ।
16 And Bersabee bowed, and did obeisance to the king; and the king said, What is your request?
बतशेबाले शिर झुकाई राजाको सामु शाष्टाङ्ग दण्डवत् गरिन् । तब राजाले सोधे, “तिमी के चाहन्छ्यौ?”
17 And she said, My lord, you did swear by the Lord your God to your handmaid, saying, Your son Solomon shall reign after me, and shall sit upon my throne.
उनले राजालाई भनिन्, “हे मेरा मालिक, परमप्रभु तपाईंका परमेश्वरको नाउँमा तपाईंले आफ्नी दासीसित यसो भन्दै शपथ खानुभएको थियो, ‘निश्चय नै मपछि तिम्रो छोराले शासन गर्ने छ र त्यो नै मेरो सिंहासनमा बस्ने छ ।”
18 And now, behold, Adonias reigns, and you, my lord, O king, know [it] not.
अब हेर्नुहोस्, अदोनियाह राजा भएको छ, र मेरा मालिक हजुरलाई यो कुरा थाहै छैन ।
19 And he has sacrificed calves and lambs and sheep in abundance, and has called all the king's sons, and Abiathar the priest and Joab the commander-in-chief of the host; but Solomon your servant he has not called.
तिनले ठुलो सङ्ख्यामा गोरुहरू, पोसिएका बाछाहरू र भेडा बलिदान चढाएका छन्, अनि राजाका सबै छोरा, पुजारी अबियाथार, र सेनापति योआबलाई निमन्त्रणा दिएका छन्, तर तपाईंका दास सोलोमनलाई भने निमन्त्रणा दिएका छैनन् ।
20 And you, my lord, O king, —the eyes of all Israel [are] upon you, to tell them who shall sit upon the throne of my lord the king after him.
हे मेरा मालिक राजा, हजुरपछि को सिंहासनमा बस्ने छ भनी हजुरबाट थाहा पाउनलाई सारा इस्राएलले हजुरकै प्रतीक्षा गरिरहेका छन् ।
21 And it shall come to pass, when my lord the king shall sleep with his fathers, that I and Solomon my son shall be offenders.
नत्रता जब हजुर आफ्ना पिता-पुर्खाहरूसित सुतिजानुहुने छ तब म र मेरो छोरो सोलोमनलाई अपराधीजस्तै ठानिने छ ।”
22 And behold, while she was yet talking with the king, Nathan the prophet came. And it was reported to the king,
उनी राजासित बोलिरहँदा नातान अगमवक्ता भित्र आए ।
23 Behold, Nathan the prophet [is here]: and he came in to the king's presence, and did obeisance to the king with his face to the ground.
सेवकहरूले राजालाई भने, “नातान अगवमक्ता आएका छन् ।” तिनी भित्र प्रवेश गरेपछि तिनले भुइँसम्मे निहुरेर राजालाई दण्डवत् गरे ।
24 And Nathan said, My lord, O king, did you say, Adonias shall reign after me, and he shall sit upon my throne?
नातानले भने, “हे मेरा मालिक राजा, “के हजुरपछि अदोनियाह राजा हुने छन् र तिनी नै हजुरको सिंहासनमा बस्ने छन् भनी हजुरले भन्नुभएको छ र?’
25 For he has gone down today, and has sacrificed calves and lambs and sheep in abundance, and has called all the king's sons, and the chiefs of the army, and Abiathar the priest; and, behold, they are eating and drinking before him, and they said, [Long] live king Adonias.
किनकि तिनी आज तल गएका छन्, र तिनले ठुलो सङ्ख्यामा गोरुहरू, पोसिएका बाछाहरू र भेडाहरू बलिदान चढाएका छन्, अनि तिनले राजाका सबै छोरा, सेनापतिहरू र पुजारी अबियाथारलाई निमन्त्रणा दिएका छन् । तिनीहरू तिनकै सामु खाँदै र पिउँदै यसो भन्दै छन्, ‘राजा अदोनियाह दीर्घायु होऊन्!’
26 But he has not invited me your servant, and Sadoc the priest, and Banaeas the son of Jodae, and Solomon your servant.
तर तिनले तपाईंका दास मलाई, पुजारी सादोक, यहोयादाका छोरा बनायाह र हजुरको दास सोलोमनलाई निमन्त्रणा दिएका छैनन् ।
27 Has this matter happened by the authority of my lord the king, and have you not made known to your servant who shall sit upon the throne of my lord the king after him?
हे मेरा मालिक राजा, के हजुरपछि हजुरको सिंहासनमा को बस्ने भनेर हजुरले हामी हजुरका दासहरूलाई जानकारी नै नदिई यसो गर्नुभएको हो र?”
28 And king David answered and said, Call me Bersabee: and she came in before the king, and stood before him.
तब राजा दाऊदले जवाफ दिए, “बतशेबालाई फेरि मकहाँ बोलाऊ ।” उनी राजाको उपस्थितिमा आएर राजाको सामु खडा भइन् ।
29 And the king swore, and said, [As] the Lord lives who redeemed my soul out of all affliction,
राजाले शपथ खाएर भने, “मेरा सबै सङ्कष्टमा मलाई छुटकारा दिनुहुने परमप्रभुको नाउँमा शपथ खाएर म भन्दछु,
30 as I swore to you by the Lord God of Israel, saying, Solomon your son shall reign after me, and he shall sit upon my throne in my stead, so will I do this day.
कि इस्राएलका परमेश्वर परमप्रभुको नाउँमा मैले यसो भनी शपथ खाएको थिएँ, “मपछि तिम्रो छोरा सोलोमनले शासन गर्ने छ र त्यो नै मेरो सिंहासनमा बस्ने छ ।' आज म यो पुरा गर्ने छु ।”
31 And Bersabee bowed with her face to the ground, and did obeisance to the king, and said, Let my lord king David live for ever.
तब बतशेबाले भुइँमा शिर झुकाई राजाको सामु घुँडा टेकेर भनिन्, “मेरा मालिक राजा दाऊद सदासर्वदा दीर्घायु होऊन्!”
32 And king David said, Call me Sadoc the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Banaeas the son of Jodae: and they came in before the king.
राजा दाऊदले भने, “पुजारी सादोक, नातान अगमवक्ता र यहोयादाका छोरा बनायाहलाई मकहाँ बोलाएर ल्याऊ ।” त्यसैले तिनीहरू राजाको सामु हाजिर भए ।
33 And the king said to them, Take the servants of your lord with you, and mount my son Solomon upon my own mule, and bring him down to Gion.
राजाले तिनीहरूलाई भने, “तिमीहरूका मालिकका सेवकहरूलाई तिमीहरूसँगै लैजाओ, र मेरो पछि सोलोमनलाई राजाको खच्चरमा सवारा गराएर गीहोनसम्म सँगसँगै लैजाओ ।
34 And there let Sadoc the priest and Nathan the prophet anoint him to be king over Israel, and do you sound the trumpet, and you shall say, Let king Solomon live.
पुजारी सादोक र नातान अगमवक्ताले तिनलाई इस्राएलमाथि राजा अभिषेक गरून्, अनि तुरही फुकी यसो भनून्, ‘राजा सोलोमन दीर्घायु होऊन्!’
35 And he shall sit upon my throne, and reign in my stead: and I have given charge that he should be for a prince over Israel and Juda.
त्यसपछि तिमीहरू तिनको पछिपछि आओ र तिनी आएर मेरो सिंहासनमा बस्ने छन् । किनकि तिनी मेरो ठाउँमा राजा हुने छन् । मैले तिनलाई इस्राएल र यहूदामाथि शासक नियुक्त गरेको छु ।”
36 And Banaeas the son of Jodae answered the king and said, So let it be: may the Lord God of my lord the king confirm [it].
यहोयादाका छोरा बनायाहले राजालाई जवाफ दिए, “यस्तै होस्! मेरा मालिक राजाका परमेश्वर परमप्रभुले यसको पुष्टि गरून् ।
37 As the Lord was with my lord the king, so let him be with Solomon, and let him exalt his throne beyond the throne of my lord king David.
जसरी परमप्रभु मेरा मालिक राजासित हुनुभएको छ, त्यसै गरी सोलोमनसित हुनुभएको होस्, र उहाँले मेरा मालिक राजा दाऊदको सिंहासनभन्दा सोलोमनको सिंहासन उच्च पार्नुभएको होस् ।”
38 And Sadoc the priest went down, and Nathan the prophet, and Banaeas son of Jodae, and the Cherethite, and the Phelethite, and they mounted Solomon upon the mule of king David, and led him away to Gion.
त्यसैले, पुजारी सादोक, नातान अगमवक्ता, यहोयादाका छोरा बनायाह र करेतीहरूसाथै पेलेथीहरू तल झरे अनि सोलोमनलाई राजा दाऊदको खच्चरमा सवार गराएर गीहोनमा ल्याए ।
39 And Sadoc the priest took the horn of oil out of the tabernacle, and anointed Solomon, and blew the trumpet; and all the people said, Let king Solomon live.
पुजारी सादोकले पालबाट तेल राख्ने सिङ लिई सोलोमनलाई तेलले अभिषेक गरे । त्यसपछि तिनीहरूले तुरही फुके, अनि सबै मानिसले भने, “राजा सोलोमन दीर्घायु होऊन्!”
40 And all the people went up after him, and they danced in choirs, and rejoiced with great joy, and the earth quaked with their voice.
तब सबै मानिस तिनको पछिपछि लागे, अनि मानिसहरूले बाँसुरी बजाउँदै बडो आनन्द मनाए । तिनीहरूको हल्लाले जमिनै थर्क्यो ।
41 And Adonias and all his guests heard, and they had [just] left off eating: and Joab heard the sound of the trumpet, and said, What [means] the voice of the city in tumult?
अदोनियाह र तिनीसित भएका सबै पाहुनाले खाइसक्ने बित्तिकै यो खबर सुने । योआबले तुरहीको आवाज सुनेपछि तिनले भने, “सहरमा किन हल्ला हुँदै छ?”
42 While he was yet speaking, behold, Jonathan the son of Abiathar the priest came in: and Adonias said, Come in, for you are a mighty man, and [you come] to bring glad tidings.
तिनी बोलिरहँदा पुजारी अबियाथार का छोरा जोनाथन आइपुगे । अदोनियाहले भने, “भित्र आऊ, किनकि तिमी योग्य मानिस हौ र तिमीले शुभ खबर ल्याउँछौ ।”
43 And Jonathan answered and said, Verily our lord king David has made Solomon king:
जोनाथनले अदोनियाहलाई जवाफ दिए, “हाम्रा मालिक राजा दाऊदले सोलोमनलाई राजा बनाउनुभएको छ,
44 and the king has sent with him Sadoc the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Banaeas the son of Jodae, and the Cherethite, and the Phelethite, and they have mounted him on the king's mule;
र राजाले तिनीसितै पुजारी सादोक, नातान अगमवक्ता, यहोयादाका छोरा बनायाह र करेतीहरूसाथै पेलेथीहरूलाई पठाउनुभएको छ । तिनीहरूले सोलोमनलाई राजाको खच्चरमा सवार गराएका छन् ।
45 and Sadoc the priest and Nathan the prophet have anointed him in Gion, and have gone up thence rejoicing, and the city resounded: this [is] the sound which you have heard.
पुजारी सादोक र नातान अगमवक्ताले गीहोनमा सोलोमनलाई राजा अभिषेक गरेका छन्, अनि तिनीहरू त्यहाँबाट रमाउँदै आएका छन् । सहरमा त्यसैको हल्ला हो । तपाईंले सुन्नुभएको आवाज त्यही नै हो ।
46 And Solomon is seated upon the throne of the kingdom.
साथै, सोलोमन राज्यको सिंहासनमा बसिरहेका छन् ।
47 And the servants of the king have gone in to bless our lord king David, saying, God make the name of Solomon better than your name, and make his throne greater than your throne; and the king worshipped upon his bed.
यसबाहेक, राजाका सेवकहरू हाम्रा मालिक राजा दाऊदलाई यसो भन्दै आशिष् दिन आए, 'हजुरका परमेश्वरले सोलोमनको नाउँ हजुरको भन्दा उत्तम बनाऊन् र हजुरको भन्दा तिनको सिंहासन महान् बनाऊन् ।' त्यसपछि राजाले पलङ्गमा नै दण्डवत् गरे ।
48 Moreover thus said the king, Blessed [be] the Lord God of Israel, who has this day appointed one of my seed sitting on my throne, and my eyes see it.
राजाले यसो पनि भने, 'इस्राएलका परमेश्वर परमप्रभु धन्यका होऊन् जसले आजको दिन मेरो सिंहासनमा एक जना व्यक्तिलाई राख्नुभएको छ जुन मेरै आँखाले देखेका छन्' ।”
49 And all the guests of Adonias were dismayed, and every man went his way.
त्यसपछि अदोनियाहका सबै पाहुना अत्यन्तै डराए । तिनीहरू उठेर आ-आफ्नो बाटो लागे ।
50 And Adonias feared because of Solomon, and arose, and departed, and laid hold on the horns of the altar.
अदोनियाह सोलोमनदेखि डराएर उठे अनि गएर वेदीका सिङहरू समाते ।
51 And it was reported to Solomon, saying, Behold, Adonias fears king Solomon, and holds the horns of the altar, saying, Let Solomon swear to me this day, that he will not kill his servant with the sword.
त्यसपछि सोलोमनलाई यसो भनियो, “हेर्नुहोस्, अदोनियाह राजा सोलोमनदेखि डराएका छन्, किनकि तिनले यसो भन्दै वेदीका सिङहरू समातेका छन्, ‘राजा सोलोमनले आफ्ना दासलाई तरवारले नमारून् भनी उहाँले पहिले मसित शपथ खानुभएको होस्' ।”
52 And Solomon said, If he should be a valiant man, there shall not a hair of his fall to the ground; but if evil be found in him, he shall die.
सोलोमनले भने, “तिनले आफैलाई योग्य मानिस साबित गरे भने तिनको इच्छाविना एउटा रौँ पनि भुइँमा झर्ने छैन, तर तिनमा दुष्टता पाइयो भने तिनी मर्ने छन् ।”
53 And king Solomon sent, and they brought him away from the altar; and he went in and did obeisance to king Solomon: and Solomon said to him, Go to your house.
त्यसैले राजा सोलोमनले मानिसहरू पठाए जसले अदोनियाहलाई वेदीबाट लिएर आए । तिनी आएर राजा सोलोमनलाई दण्डवत् गरे, र सोलोमनले तिनलाई भने, “तिम्रो घरमा जाऊ ।”
