Joshua 6
1 Now Jericho was tightly shut up because of the children of Israel. No one went out, and no one came in.
इस्राएलका फौजका कारण यरीहोतिरका सबै प्रवेशद्वारहरू बन्द थिए । कोही पनि बाहिर आउँदैनथ्यो र भित्र पस्दैनथ्यो ।
2 The LORD said to Joshua, "Look, I have given Jericho into your hand, with its king and the mighty men of valor.
परमप्रभुले यहोशूलाई भन्नुभयो, “हेर्, मैले यरीहोलाई यसको राजा र यसका तालिम प्राप्त सिपाहीहरूसहित तेरो हातमा सुम्पेको छु ।
3 All your men of war shall march around the city, going around the city once. You shall do this six days.
तिमीहरूले सहरको फेरो मार्नुपर्छ, लडाइँमा जाने सबै मानिसले सहरलाई एक फेरो मार्नुपर्छ । तिमीहरूले छ दिनसम्म यसै गर्नू ।
4 Seven cohanim shall bear seven trumpets of rams' horns before the ark. On the seventh day, you shall march around the city seven times, and the cohanim shall blow the trumpets.
सात जना पुजारीले सन्दुकको अगि सातवटा भेडाका सिङका सातवटा तुरही बोक्नुपर्छ । सातौँ दिनमा तिमीहरूले सहरलाई सात फेरो मार्नू र पुजारीहरूले तुरही फुक्नू ।
5 It shall be that when they make a long blast with the ram's horn, and when you hear the sound of the trumpet, all the people shall shout with a great shout; and the wall of the city shall fall down flat, and the people shall go up every man straight before him."
त्यसपछि तिनीहरूले भेडाको सिङको सँगै लामो समयसम्म बजाउनुपर्छ र जब तिमीहरूले त्यो आवाज सुन्छौ सबै मानिस ठुलो स्वरमा कराउनुपर्छ, र सहरको पर्खाल जगसम्म नै ढल्ने छ । हरेक सिपाही सोझै अगि बढेर आक्रमण गर्नुपर्छ ।”
6 Joshua the son of Nun called the cohanim, and said to them, "Take up the ark of the covenant, and let seven cohanim bear seven trumpets of rams' horns before the ark of the LORD."
अनि नूनका छोरा यहोशूले पुजारीहरूलाई बोलाएर तिनीहरूलाई भने, “करारको सन्दुक बोक, र सात जना पुजारीले परमप्रभुको सन्दुक अगिअगि भेडाका सातवटा सिङका तुरहीहरू बोकून् ।”
7 And he said to the people, "Advance. March around the city, and let the armed men pass on before the LORD's ark."
तिनले मानिसहरूलाई भने, “जाओ र सहरको फन्को मार, अनि सशस्त्र मानिसहरू परमप्रभुको सन्दुकअगि जाने छन् ।”
8 It was so, that when Joshua had spoken to the people, the seven cohanim bearing the seven trumpets of rams' horns before the LORD advanced, and blew the trumpets; and the ark of the covenant of the LORD followed them.
यहोशूले मानिसहरूलाई भनेजस्तै सात जना पुजारीले परमप्रभुको सामु भेडाका सिङहरूको सातवटा तुरही बोके । तिनीहरू अगि बढ्दा तिनीहरूले तुरहीहरू फुके । परमप्रभुको करारको सन्दुक तिनीहरूको पछिपछि थियो ।
9 The armed men went before the cohanim who blew the trumpets, and the ark went after them. The trumpets sounded as they went.
सशस्त्र मानिसहरू पुजारीहरूको अगिअगि हिँडे र तिनीहरूले तिनीहरूका तुरहीहरू फुके, तर पछाडिका सुरक्षाकर्मीहरू सन्दुकको पछिपछि हिँडे र पुजारीहरूले तिनीहरूको तुरही निरन्तर रूपमा फुकिरहे ।
10 Joshua commanded the people, saying, "You shall not shout, nor let your voice be heard, neither shall any word proceed out of your mouth, until the day I tell you to shout. Then you shall shout."
तर यहोशूले यसो भन्दै मानिसहरूलाई आज्ञा दिए, “नकराओ । मैले कराउनू नभनेसम्म तिमीहरूको मुखबाट कुनै आवाज ननिस्कोस् । त्यसपछि मात्र कराओ ।”
11 So he caused the ark of the LORD to go around the city, going about it once. Then they came into the camp, and lodged in the camp.
त्यसैले तिनले परमप्रभुको सन्दुकलाई त्यस दिन सहरको वरिपरि एक पटक जान लगाए । अनि तिनीहरू छाउनी प्रवेश गरे र राति छाउनीमा नै बसे ।
12 Joshua rose early in the morning, and the cohanim took up the ark of the LORD.
यहोशू बिहान सबेरै उठे र पुजारीहरूले परमप्रभुको सन्दुक बोके ।
13 The seven cohanim bearing the seven trumpets of rams' horns before the ark of the LORD went on continually, and blew the trumpets: and the armed men went before them. The rear guard came after the ark of the LORD. The trumpets sounded as they went.
परमप्रभुको सन्दुकअगि भेडाको सिङको सातवटा तुरही बोक्ने सात जना पुजारी लगातार हिँडिरहे र तुरही फुकिरहे । सशस्त्र सिपाहीहरू तिनीहरूको अगि हिँडिरहेका थिए । तर पछिल्तिरका सुरक्षाकर्मीहरू परमप्रभुको सन्दुकको पछिपछि हिँडे । त्यसपछि तुरही लगातार बजाइयो ।
14 The second day they marched around the city once, and returned into the camp. They did this six days.
तिनीहरूले दोस्रो दिन पनि सहरलाई एक फेरो लगाए र बिहानै छाउनीमा फर्के । तिनीहरूले छ दिनसम्म यसै गरे ।
15 It happened on the seventh day, that they rose early at the dawning of the day, and marched around the city in the same way seven times. Only on this day they marched around the city seven times.
सातौँ दिनमा तिनीहरू बिहान सबेरै उठे र तिनीहरूले त्यस दिन पनि सहरको फेरो मारे । त्यस दिन तिनीहरूले सहर वरिपरि सात फन्को मारे ।
16 It happened at the seventh time, when the cohanim blew the trumpets, Joshua said to the people, "Shout, for the LORD has given you the city.
जब सातौँ दिनमा पुजारीहरूले तुरही फुके यहोशूले मानिसहरूलाई आज्ञा दिए, “कराओ! किनभने परमप्रभुले यो सहर तिमीहरूलाई दिनुभएको छ ।
17 The city shall be devoted, even it and all that is in it, to the LORD. Only Rahab the prostitute shall live, she and all who are with her in the house, because she hid the messengers that we sent.
यो सहर र यसमा भएका सबै थोक विनाशको निम्ति परमप्रभुको लागि अलग गरिएको छ । राहाब र तिनको घरमा तिनीसँग भएकाहरू मात्र बाँच्ने छन्, किनभने तिनले हामीले पठाएका मानिसहरूलाई लुकाएकी थिइन् ।
18 But as for you, only keep yourselves from the devoted thing, so as not to covet and take of the devoted thing and make the camp of Israel accursed, and bring trouble on it.
तर तिमीहरूचाहिँ विनाशको निम्ति अलग गरिएका थोकहरू लिने कुरामा सावधान होओ, ताकि तिमीहरूले तिनीहरूलाई विनाशको निम्ति चिनो लगाओ, र तिमीहरूले तिनीहरूमध्ये कुनै पनि नलेओ । यदि तिमीहरूले यसो गरेनौ भने, तिमीहरूले इस्रएलको छाउनीलाई विनाश गरिनु पर्ने थोकजस्तै तुल्याउने छौ र तिमीहरूले यसमाथि कष्ट ल्याउने छौ ।
19 But all the silver, and gold, and vessels of bronze and iron, are holy to the LORD. They shall come into the LORD's treasury."
सबै चाँदी, सुन, र काँसाबाट बनेका थोकहरू अनि फलामलाई परमप्रभुको निम्ति अलग गरिएको छ । ती सबै परमप्रभुको घरमा जानुपर्छ ।”
20 So the people shouted, and the cohanim blew the trumpets. It happened, when the people heard the sound of the trumpet, that the people shouted with a great shout, and the wall fell down flat, so that the people went up into the city, every man straight before him, and they took the city.
जब तिनीहरूले तुरही फुके, मानिसहरू ठुलो स्वरमा कराए अनि पर्खाल जगसम्मै ढल्यो । त्यसैले हरेक मानिस सोझै अगि बढ्यो र सहर कब्जा गरियो ।
21 They utterly destroyed all that was in the city, both man and woman, both young and old, and ox, and sheep, and donkey, with the edge of the sword.
तिनीहरूले सहरमा भएका पुरुष र महिला, जवान र वृद्ध, गोरु, भेडा र गधाहरूलाई तरवारले विनाश पारे ।
22 And Joshua said to the two young men who had spied out the land, "Go into the prostitute's house, and bring out from there the woman and all that she has, as you swore to her."
त्यसपछि भूमिको भेद लिने दुई जना मानिसलाई भने, “ती वेश्याको घरभित्र जाओ । ती महिला र तिनीसँग भएका सबैलाई तिमीहरूले शपथ खाएबमोजिम बाहिर ल्याओ ।”
23 The young men who were spies went in, and brought out Rahab with her father, her mother, her brothers, and all that she had. They also brought out all her relatives, and they set them outside of the camp of Israel.
त्यसैले त्यो भूमिको भेद लिने जवानहरू गए र राहाबलाई बाहिर ल्याए । तिनीहरूले तिनका बुबा, आमा, दाजुभाइहरू र तिनीसँग भएका सबै नातेदारलाई ल्याए । तिनीहरूले उनीहरूलाई इस्राएलको छाउनी भएको ठाउँमा ल्याए ।
24 They burnt the city with fire, and all that was in it. Only they put the silver, the gold, and the vessels of bronze and of iron into the treasury of the LORD's house.
तिनीहरूले सहर र यसमा भएका सबै थोकलाई जलाए । चाँदी, सुन, काँसामा भाँडाहरू र फलामलाई मात्र परमप्रभुको घरमा राखियो ।
25 But Rahab the prostitute, her father's household, and all that she had, Joshua saved alive. She lived in the midst of Israel to this day, because she hid the messengers, whom Joshua sent to spy out Jericho.
तर यहोशूले राहाब वेश्या, उनको बुबाको घराना र तिनीसँग भएका सबैलाई जीवितै राखे । उनी आजसम्म पनि इस्राएलमा नै बस्छिन्, किनभने उनले यहोशूले यरीहोको जासुस गर्न पठाएका मानिसहरूलाई लुकाइन् ।
26 Joshua commanded them with an oath at that time, saying, "Cursed be the man before the LORD, who rises up and builds this city Jericho. With the loss of his firstborn shall he lay its foundation, and with the loss of his youngest son shall he set up its gates."
त्यसपछि यहोशूले तिनीहरूलाई त्यस बेला शपथ खान लगाएर यसो भन्दै आज्ञा दिए, “यो यरीहो सहरको पुनर्निर्माण गर्ने मानिस श्रापित होस् । त्यसको जेठो छोरोको मूल्यमा जग बसालिने छ, र त्यसको कान्छो छोरोको मूल्यमा यसका प्रवेशद्वारहरू खडा गरिने छ ।”
27 So the LORD was with Joshua; and his fame was in all the land.
परमप्रभु यहोशूसँग हुनुहुन्थ्यो, र तिनको कीर्ति सारा मुलुकभरि फैलियो ।
