< 2 Samuel 11 >

1 And it comes to pass, at the revolution of the year—at the time of the going out of the messengers—that David sends Joab, and his servants with him, and all Israel, and they destroy the sons of Ammon, and lay siege against Rabbah, but David is dwelling in Jerusalem.
बसन्त ऋतुमा यस्‍तो भयो, यो समयमा राजाहरू सामान्यतया युद्धमा जान्छन्, जसले गर्दा दाऊदले योआब, तिनका सेवकहरू र इस्राएलका सबै फौजलाई पठाए । तिनीहरूले अम्‍मोनका फौजलाई नाश गरे र रब्बालाई घराबन्दी गरे । तर दाऊदचाहिं यरूशलेममा नै बसे ।
2 And it comes to pass, at evening-time, that David rises from off his bed, and walks up and down on the roof of the king’s house, and sees a woman bathing from the roof, and the woman [is] of very good appearance,
त्यसैले एक साँझ यस्‍तो भयो, दाऊद आफ्नो ओछ्‍यानबाट उठे र आफ्‍नो दरबारको छतमा हिंडिरहे । त्यहाँबाट तिनले एक जना स्‍त्रीलाई देखे जो नुहाइरहेकी थिइन्, र ती महिला हेर्दा साह्रै सुन्दरी थिइन् ।
3 and David sends and inquires about the woman, and [someone] says, “Is this not Bathsheba, daughter of Eliam, wife of Uriah the Hittite?”
त्यसैले दाऊदले मानिसहरू बोलाए र ती स्‍त्रीलाई चिन्‍नेहरूलाई सोधे । कसैले भन्यो, “के यिनी एलीआमकी छोरी बतशेबा र हित्ती उरियाहकी पत्‍नी होइनन् र?”
4 And David sends messengers, and takes her, and she comes to him, and he lies with her—and she is purifying herself from her uncleanness—and she turns back to her house;
दाऊदले दूतहरू पठाए र तिनलाई ल्याए । तिनकहाँ उनी आइन् र तिनी उनीसँग सुते (किनकि उनले आफूलाई रजस्वलाबाट भर्खरै मात्र शुद्ध पारेकी थिइन्)। त्‍यसपछि उनी आफ्नै घरमा फर्किन् ।
5 and the woman conceives, and sends, and declares [it] to David, and says, “I [am] conceiving.”
ती स्‍त्री गर्भवती भइन् र उनले दाऊदलाई खबर पठाइन् र भनिन् । उनले भनिन्, “म गर्भवती भएछु ।”
6 And David sends to Joab, [saying], “Send Uriah the Hittite to me,” and Joab sends Uriah to David;
त्यसपछि दाऊदले यआबलाई यसो भनेर खबर पठाए, “हित्ती उरियाहलाई मकहाँ पठाऊ ।” त्यसैले योआबले उरियाहलाई दाऊदकहाँ पठाए ।
7 and Uriah comes to him, and David asks of the prosperity of Joab, and of the prosperity of the people, and of the prosperity of the war.
जब उरियाह आइपुगे, तब दाऊदले योआब कस्ता छन्, फौज कस्तो छ र युद्ध कस्तो भइरहेको छ भनी सोधपुछ गरे ।
8 And David says to Uriah, “Go down to your house, and wash your feet”; and Uriah goes out of the king’s house, and there goes out a gift from the king after him,
दाऊदले उरियाहलाई भने, “तल आफ्नो घरमा जाऊ र आफ्नो खुट्टा धोऊ ।” त्यसैले उरियाह राजाको दरबारबाट गए र राजाले उरियाह गएपछि तिनको पछिपछि उपहार पठाए ।
9 and Uriah lies down at the opening of the king’s house, with all the servants of his lord, and has not gone down to his house.
तर उरियाह राजाको दरबारको ढोकामा आफ्ना मालिकका सेवकहरूसँगै सुते र तिनी तल आफ्नो घरमा गएनन् ।
10 And they declare [it] to David, saying, “Uriah has not gone down to his house”; and David says to Uriah, “Have you not come from a journey? Why have you not gone down to your house?”
जब तिनीहरूले दाऊदलाई भने, “उरियाह तल आफ्नो घरमा गएनन् ।” दाऊदले उरियाहलाई भने, “के तिमी यात्राबाट आएका होइनौ? तिमी तल आफ्नो घरमा किन नगएको?”
11 And Uriah says to David, “The ark, and Israel, and Judah, are abiding in shelters, and my lord Joab, and the servants of my lord, are encamping on the face of the field; and should I go to my house to eat and to drink, and to lie with my wife? [By] your life and the life of your soul—if I do this thing.”
उरियाहले जवाफ दिए, “सन्दुक, इस्राएल र यहूदा पालमा बसिरहेका छन्, अनि मेरो मालिक योआब र मेरा मलिकका सेवकहरू खुल्‍ला मैदानमा छाउनीमा छन् । तब म आफ्‍नो घरमा खान, पिउन र मेरो पत्‍नीसँग सुत्‍नलाई कसरी जानु? जस्तो तपाईं जीवित हुनुहुन्छ, म यसो गर्ने छैन ।”
12 And David says to Uriah, “Also abide in this [place] today, and tomorrow I send you away”; and Uriah abides in Jerusalem on that day and on the next day,
त्यसैले दाऊदले उरियाहलाई भने, “आज पनि यहीं बस र म तिमीलाई भोलि पठाउने छु ।” त्यसैले उरियाह त्यस दिन र अर्को दिन यरूशलेममा नै बसे ।
13 and David calls for him, and he eats before him, and drinks, and he causes him to drink, and he goes out in the evening to lie on his bed with the servants of his lord, and he has not gone down to his house.
जब दाऊदले उनलाई बोलाए, उनले तिनको सामु खाए र पिए र दाऊदले तिनलाई मत्‍याए । साँझमा उरियाह आफ्नो मालिकका सेवकहरूसँगै भएको आफ्‍नो ओछ्‍यानमा सुत्‍न गए । उनी तल आफ्नो घरमा गएनन् ।
14 And it comes to pass in the morning that David writes a letter to Joab and sends [it] by the hand of Uriah;
त्यसैले बिहान दाऊदले योआबलाई पत्र लेखे र यो उरियाहको हातमा पठाए ।
15 and he writes in the letter, saying, “Place Uriah in front of the face of the most severe battle, and you have turned back from after him, and he has been struck, and has died.”
दाऊदले पत्र यसो भनेर लेखे, “धेरै भयङ्‍कर युद्धको अग्र पङ्‍तीमा उरियाहलाई राख्‍नू र त्यसबाट पछि हट्नू, ताकि त्यसलाई प्रहार गरियोस् र मारियोस् ।”
16 And it comes to pass in Joab’s watching of the city, that he appoints Uriah to the place where he knew that valiant men [were];
त्यसैले जब योआबले सहरमाथिको घेराबन्धीलाई हेरे, तब तिनले लड्नलाई बलियो शत्रु सिपाहीहरू छन् भनी जानेका ठाउँमा उरियाहलाई खटाए ।
17 and the men of the city go out and fight with Joab, and [some] of the people, from the servants of David, fall; and Uriah the Hittite also dies.
जब सहरका मानिसहरू बाहिर निस्‍के र योआबका फौजसँग युद्ध लडे, तब दाऊदका केही सिपाहीहरू मरे र हित्ती उरियाहलाई पनि त्यहीं मारियो ।
18 And Joab sends and declares to David all the matters of the war,
जब योआबले युद्धको बारेमा हरेक खबर दाऊदलाई पठाए,
19 and commands the messenger, saying, “At your finishing all the matters of the war to speak to the king,
तब तिनले दूतहरूलाई यसो भनेर आज्ञा दिए, “जब तैंले राजालाई युद्धका बारेमा सबै कुराहरू भनेर सिद्ध्याउँछस्,
20 then, it has been, if the king’s fury ascends, and he has said to you, Why did you draw near to the city to fight? Did you not know that they shoot from off the wall?
तब राजा रिसाउन सक्‍छन् र तिनले भन्‍ने छन्, 'तिमीहरू युद्ध गर्न सहरको यति नजिक किन गयौ? के उनीहरूले पर्खालबाट काँड हान्छन् भन्‍ने तिमीहरूले जानेनौ?
21 Who struck Abimelech son of Jerubbesheth? Did a woman not cast a piece of a rider from the wall on him, and he dies in Thebez? Why did you draw near to the wall? That you have said, Also—your servant Uriah the Hittite is dead.”
यरूब-बेसेतका छोरा अबीमेलेकलाई कसले मार्‍यो? के एक जना स्‍त्रीले जाँतोको माथिल्‍को ढुङ्गा पर्खालबाट खसालेर तिनी तेबेसमा मरेकी थिइनन्? तिमीहरू किन पर्खालको यति नजिक गयौ?' तब तैंले जवाफ दिनुपर्छ, 'तपाईंको दास हित्ती उरियाह पनि मरे' ।”
22 And the messenger goes, and comes in, and declares to David all that with which Joab sent him,
त्यसैले त्‍यो दूत विदा भयो र दाऊदकहाँ गयो र योआबले तिनलाई भन्‍न पठाएका हरेक कुरा भनिदिए ।
23 and the messenger says to David, “Surely the men have been mighty against us, and come out to us into the field, and we are on them to the opening of the gate,
त्यसपछि त्‍यो दूतले दाऊदलाई भने, “सुरुमा हामीभन्‍दा शत्रुहरू बलिया थिए । उनीहरू हामीमाथि खुल्ला मैदानमा आए, तर हामीले उनीहरूलाई भित्र पस्‍ने ढोकातिर नै फर्कायौं ।
24 and those shooting shoot at your servants from off the wall, and [some] of the servants of the king are dead, and also, your servant Uriah the Hittite is dead.”
तब उनीहरूका काँड हान्‍नेहरूले पर्खाल माथिबाट तपाईंका केही सिपाहीलाई काँड हाने र राजाका केही सेवक मारिए र तपाईंको दास हित्ती उरियाह पनि मारिए ।”
25 And David says to the messenger, “Thus you say to Joab, Do not let this thing be evil in your eyes; for thus and thus the sword devours; strengthen your warfare against the city, and throw it down; so you strengthen him.”
दाऊदले त्‍यस दूतलाई भने, “योआबलाई भन्, 'यसले तिमीलाई दुःखित नतुल्याओस्, किनकि तरवारले एउटा वा अर्कोलाई नष्‍ट पार्छ । त्‍यो सहरको विरुद्ध तिम्रो युद्ध अझ धेरै बलियो पार र त्‍यसलाई नाश पार,' र तिनलाई उत्साह दिए ।”
26 And the wife of Uriah hears that her husband Uriah [is] dead, and laments for her lord;
जब उरियाहको पत्‍नीले आफ्‍नो पति उरियाह मरेको खबर सुनिन्, तब आफ्नो पतिको निम्ति तिनले गहिरो शोक गरिन् ।
27 and the mourning passes by, and David sends and gathers her to his house, and she is to him for a wife, and bears a son to him; and the thing which David has done is evil in the eyes of YHWH.
जब उनको विलाप पुरा भयो, दाऊदले उनलाई आफ्नो दरबारमा ल्याउन लिन पठाए र उनी तिनको पत्‍नी भइन् र तिनको निति एउटा छोरा जन्माइन् । तर दाऊदले गरेको कुराले परमप्रभुलाई दुःखी तुल्यायो ।
