Genesis 15
1 After these things the word of YHWH has been to Abram in a vision, saying, “Do not fear, Abram, I [am] a shield to you, your reward [is] exceedingly great.”
यी सबै कुराहरू भएपछि दर्शनमा अब्रामकहाँ यसो भन्ने परमप्रभुको वचन आयो, “अब्राम, नडराऊ । म नै तेरो ढाल तेरो धेरै महान् इनाम हुँ ।”
2 And Abram says, “Lord YHWH, what do You give to me, and I am going childless? And an acquired son in my house is Demmesek Eliezer.”
अब्रामले भने, “हे परमप्रभु, तपाईंले मलाई के दिनुहुन्छ र?, किनभने म सनतानविहीन रहिरहेको छु र मेरो गरको उत्तराधिकार दमस्कसको एलीएजर हुनेछ ।”
3 And Abram says, “Behold, to me You have not given seed, and behold, a servant will be my heir.”
अब्रामले भने, “हे्र्नुहोस्, तपाईंले मलाई कुनै पनि सन्तान नदिनुभएको हुनाले मेरो घरको भण्डारे नै मेरो उत्तराधिकार हुन्छ ।”
4 And behold, the word of YHWH [is] to him, saying, “This [one] will not be your heir; but he who comes out from your bowels, he will be your heir”;
हेर्नुहोस्, त्यसपछि यसो भन्ने परमप्रभुको वचन तिनीकहाँ आयो, “यो मानिस तेरो उत्तराधिकार हुनेछैन; तर तेरै शरीरबाट जन्मिने नै तेरो उत्तराधिकारी हुनेछ ।”
5 and He brings him out outside and says, “Now look attentively toward the heavens and count the stars, if you are able to count them”; and He says to him, “Thus is your seed.”
अनि उहाँले तिनलाई बाहिर ल्याउनुभयो र भन्नुभयो, “आकाशतिर हेर् र ताराहरूलाई गन्, यदि तैले तिनीहरूलाई गन्न सक्छस् भने ।” अनि उहाँले तिनलाई भन्नुभयो, “तेरा सन्तानहरू पनि यस्तै हुनेछन् ।”
6 And he has believed in YHWH, and He reckons it to him—righteousness.
तिनले परमप्रभुमा विश्वास गरे र उहाँले यसलाई तिनको धार्मिकताको रूपमा गन्नुभयो ।”
7 And He says to him, “I [am] YHWH who brought you out from Ur of the Chaldees, to give to you this land to possess it”;
उहाँले तिनलाई भन्नुभयो, “म परमप्रभु हुँ, जसले यो भूमि तँलाई दिन कल्दीहरूका ऊरबाट निकालेर ल्यायो ।”
8 and he says, “Lord YHWH, whereby do I know that I possess it?”
तिनले उहाँलाई भने, “हे परमप्रभु परमेश्वर, मैले यो प्राप्त गर्नेछु भनी मैले कसरी थाहा पाउने नि?”
9 And He says to him, “Take for Me a heifer of three years, and a female goat of three years, and a ram of three years, and a turtle-dove, and a young bird”;
तब उहाँले तिनलाई भन्नुभयो, “मलाई तिन वर्षको एउटा कोरली, तिन वर्षको बाख्राको एउटा पाठी, तिन वर्षको एउटा थुमा, एउटा ढुकुर र एउटा परेवा लेऊ ।”
10 and he takes all these to Him, and separates them in the midst, and puts each piece opposite its fellow, but the bird he has not divided;
तिनले ती सबै उहाँकहाँ ल्याए र तिनीहरूलाई दुई-दुई फ्याक गरेर काटे अनि हरेक फ्याकलाई आमनेसामने गरी राखे, तर पक्षीहरूलाईचाहिँ तिनले दुई फ्याक पारेनन् ।
11 and the ravenous birds come down on the carcasses, and Abram causes them to turn back.
शिकारी चराहरू सिनोहरूमाथि झम्टिँदा अब्रामले तिनीहरूलाई धपाए ।
12 And the sun is about to go in, and deep sleep has fallen on Abram, and behold, a terror of great darkness is falling on him;
घाम डुब्न लाग्दा अब्राम अब्राम मस्न निद्रामा परे र हेर, तिनलाई गाढा र डरलाग्दो अन्धकारले छोप्यो ।
13 and He says to Abram, “knowing—know that your seed is a sojourner in a land not theirs, and they have served them, and they have afflicted them four hundred years,
त्यपछि परमप्रभुले तिनलाई भन्नुभयो, “तेरा सन्तानहरू तिनीहरूको आफ्नो नभएको (अर्काको) मुलुकमा प्रवासी हुनेछन् र तिनीहरूलाई चार सय वर्षसम्म दास बनाइनेछन् र अत्याचार गरिनेछन् ।
14 and the nation also whom they serve I judge, and after this they go out with great substance;
तिनीहरूले सेवा गरेको देशको मैले न्यान गर्नेछु र त्यसपछि तिनीहरू प्रशस्त धन-सम्पत्तिहरूसहित निस्केर आउनेछन् ।
15 and you come to your fathers in peace; you are buried in a good old age;
तर तँचाहिँ तेरा पिता-पूर्खाहरूकहाँ शान्तिमा जानेछस् र तँलाई वृद्धवस्थामा दफन गरिनेछ ।
16 and the fourth generation turns back here, for the iniquity of the Amorite is not yet complete.”
तिनीहरू चौथो पुस्तामा फेरि यहाँ आउनेछन्, किनकि एमोरीहरूको अधर्मको सिमा अझै पुगेको छैन ।”
17 And it comes to pass—the sun has gone in, and thick darkness has been and behold, a furnace of smoke, and a lamp of fire, which has passed over between those pieces.
सूर्य अस्ताउँदा र साँझ पर्दा, हेर, धूवाँ आइरहेको मकल र बलिरहेको आगोको ज्वाला ती फ्याकहरूका बिच भएर गयो ।
18 In that day has YHWH made with Abram a covenant, saying, “To your seed I have given this land, from the River of Egypt to the great river, the Euphrates River,
त्यसै दिन परमप्रभुले यसो भनेर अब्रामसँग करार बाँध्नुभयो, “म तेरा सन्तानहरूलाई यसैद्वारा यो भूमि दिन्छु, जुन मिश्रादेखि महानदी अर्थात् युफ्रेटिससम्म छ-
19 with the Kenite, and the Kenizzite, and the Kadmonite,
केनीहरू, कनज्जीहरू, कदोनीहरू,
20 and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, and the Rephaim,
हित्तीहरू, परिज्जीहरू, रपाईहरू,
21 and the Amorite, and the Canaanite, and the Girgashite, and the Jebusite.”
एमोरीहरू, कनानीहरू, गिर्गाशीहरू र यबूसीहरूलाई दिन्छु ।
