1 Samuel 28
1 And it came to pass in those days, that the Philistines gathered their hosts together for warfare, to fight with Israel. And Achish said unto David, Know thou assuredly, that thou shalt go out with me in the host, thou and thy men.
ती दिनहरूमा पलिश्तीहरूले इस्रएलसँग युद्ध गर्न आफ्नो फौज सँगै भेला पारे । आकीशले दाऊदलाई भने, “तिमी र तिम्रा मानिसहरू मसँगै सेनामा जानेछौ भन्ने जानी राख ।”
2 And David said to Achish, Therefore thou shalt know what thy servant will do. And Achish said to David, Therefore will I make thee keeper of mine head for ever.
दाऊदले आकीशलाई भने, “तपाईंको दासले के गर्न सक्छ भन्ने तपाईंले जान्नु हुनेछ ।” आकीशले दाऊदलाई भने, “त्यसैले म तिमीलाई तिम्रो जीवनकाल भरि नै मेरो अङ्गरक्षक बनाउनेछु ।”
3 Now Samuel was dead, and all Israel had lamented him, and buried him in Ramah, even in his own city. And Saul had put away those that had familiar spirits, and the wizards, out of the land.
यति बेला शमूएल मरिसकेका थिए, र सारा इस्राएलले तिनको निम्ति विलाप गरेका र तिनलाई आफ्नै सहर रामामा दफन गरेका थिए । शाऊलले मृतक र आत्माहरूसँग कुरा गर्नेहरूलाई देशमा निषेध गरेका थिए ।
4 And the Philistines gathered themselves together, and came and pitched in Shunem: and Saul gathered all Israel together, and they pitched in Gilboa.
तब पलिश्तीहरू आफूलाई एकसाथ भेला पारे र शूनेममा आएर छाउनी हाले । अनि शाऊलले सबै इस्राएललाई एकसाथ भेला पारे र तिनीहरूले गिल्बोमा छाउनी हाले ।
5 And when Saul saw the host of the Philistines, he was afraid, and his heart trembled greatly.
जब शाऊलले पलिश्तीहरूको फौज देखे, तब तिनी डराए र तिनको हृदय अति नै डरायो ।
6 And when Saul inquired of the LORD, the LORD answered him not, neither by dreams, nor by Urim, nor by prophets.
शाऊलले परमप्रभुसँग प्रार्थना गरे तर परमप्रभुले न सपनामा, न त ऊरीममा, न त अगमवक्ताहरूद्वारा नै कुनै जवाफ दिनुभयो ।
7 Then said Saul unto his servants, Seek me a woman that hath a familiar spirit, that I may go to her, and inquire of her. And his servants said to him, Behold, there is a woman that hath a familiar spirit at En-dor.
तब शाऊलले आफ्नो सेवकहरूलाई भने, “मृतकसँग कुरा गर्ने एक जना स्त्री मेरो निम्ति खोजेर ल्याओ, ताकि त्यसकहाँ म जान र त्यसको सल्लाह खोज्न सकूँ ।” तिनका सेवकहरूले तिनलाई भने, “हे्र्नुहोस्, मृतकसँग कुरा गर्न सक्ने दाबी गर्ने एक जना स्त्री एन्दोरमा छिन् ।”
8 And Saul disguised himself, and put on other raiment, and went, he and two men with him, and they came to the woman by night: and he said, Divine unto me, I pray thee, by the familiar spirit, and bring me up whomsoever I shall name unto thee.
शाऊलले आफू भेष बदले र अर्कै पोशाक लगाएर, तिनी र तिनीसँग भएका दुई जना मानिसहरू गए । तिनीहरू त्यो स्त्री कहाँ राती गए । तिनले भने, “म बिन्ती गर्छु मेरो निम्ति आत्मासँग कुरा गरि देऊ र मैले जसको नाउँ भन्छु त्यो मलाई ल्याइदेऊ ।”
9 And the woman said unto him, Behold, thou knowest what Saul hath done, how he hath cut off those that have familiar spirits, and the wizards, out of the land: wherefore then layest thou a snare for my life, to cause me to die?
स्त्रीले तिनलाई भनिन्, “हेर्नुहोस्, शाऊलले के गर्नुभएको छ सो तपाईंहरूलाई थाहा छ, उनले मृतक वा आत्माहरूसँग कुरा गर्नेहरूलाई कसरी देशबाट निष्काषण गर्नुभएको छ । त्यसैले मलाई मर्नलाई किन मेरो जीवनलाई जालमा फसाउँदै हुनुहुन्छ?”
10 And Saul sware to her by the LORD, saying, As the LORD liveth, there shall no punishment happen to thee for this thing.
शाऊलले परमप्रभुको नाउँमा शपथ खाए र भने, “जस्तो परमप्रभु जीवित हुनुहुन्छ, तिमीलाई यो कुराको निम्ति कुनै दण्ड हुनेछैन ।”
11 Then said the woman, Whom shall I bring up unto thee? And he said, Bring me up Samuel.
तब ती स्त्रीले भनिन्, “म तपाईंको निम्ति कसलाई ल्याउँ?” शाऊलले भने, “मेरो निम्ति शमूएललाई ल्याइदेऊ ।”
12 And when the woman saw Samuel, she cried with a loud voice: and the woman spake to Saul, saying, Why hast thou deceived me? for thou art Saul.
जब ती स्त्रीले शमूएल देखिन्, तब तिनले ठुलो सोरले चिच्याइन् र भनिन्, “तपाईंले मलाई किन छल गर्नुभयो? किनकि तपाईं नै शाऊल हुनुहुन्छ ।”
13 And the king said unto her, Be not afraid: for what seest thou? And the woman said unto Saul, I see a god coming up out of the earth.
राजाले उनलाई भने, “नडराऊ । तिमीले के देख्छौ?” ती स्त्रीले शाऊललाई भनिन्, “पृथ्वीबाट एउटा देवता आइरहेको म देख्छु ।”
14 And he said unto her, What form is he of? And she said, An old man cometh up; and he is covered with a robe. And Saul perceived that it was Samuel, and he bowed with his face to the ground, and did obeisance.
तिनले उनलाई भने, “त्यो कस्तो छ?” उनले भनिन्, “एउटा वृद्ध मानिस माथि आइरहेका छन् । यिनले खा्सटो ओढेका छन् ।” यिनी शमूएल हुन् भनी शाऊलले भनी बुझे र तिनले घोप्टो परेर दण्डवत गरे र आदर प्रकट गरे ।
15 And Samuel said to Saul, Why hast thou disquieted me, to bring me up? And Saul answered, I am sore distressed; for the Philistines make war against me, and God is departed from me, and answereth me no more, neither by prophets, nor by dreams: therefore I have called thee, that thou mayest make known unto me what I shall do.
शमूएलले शाऊललाई भने, “तिमीले किन मेरो शान्ति भङ्ग गर्यौ र मलाई माथि ल्यायौ?” शाऊलले जवाफ दिए, “म अति नै व्याकुल छु, किनभने पलिश्तीहरूले मेरो विरुद्ध युद्ध गरिरहेका छन्, र परमेश्वरले मलाई छोड्नुभएको छ र मलाई न अगमवक्ताहरूद्वारा न त सपनाहरूद्वारा नै जवाफ दिनुहुन्छ । यसकारण मैले तपाईंलाई बोलाएको हुँ, ताकि मैले के गर्नुपर्ने हो सो तपाईंले मलाई प्रकट गर्नुहोस् ।”
16 And Samuel said, Wherefore then dost thou ask of me, seeing the LORD is departed from thee, and is become thine adversary?
शमूएलले भने, “तब परमप्रभुले तिमीलाई छोड्नुभएको र उहाँ नै तिम्रो शत्रु हुनुभएको हुनाले तिमीले मलाई के सोध्छौ?
17 And the LORD hath wrought for himself, as he spake by me: and the LORD hath rent the kingdom out of thine hand, and given it to thy neighbour, even to David.
परमप्रभुले जे गर्छु भन्नुभएको छ सो उहाँले गर्नुभएको छ । परमप्रभुले राज्यलाई तिम्रो हातबाट खोस्नुभएको छ र उहाँले अरू कसैलाई अर्थात् दाऊदलाई दिनुभएको छ ।
18 Because thou obeyedst not the voice of the LORD and didst not execute his fierce wrath upon Amalek, therefore hath the LORD done this thing unto thee this day.
किनभने तिमीले परमप्रभुको आवाज पालन गरेनौ र अमालेकमाथि उहाँको भयङ्कर क्रोध पुरा गरेनौ, यसकारण उहाँले तिमीलाई आज यसो गर्नुभएको छ ।
19 Moreover the LORD will deliver Israel also with thee into the hand of the Philistines: and tomorrow shalt thou and thy sons be with me: the LORD shall deliver the host of Israel also into the hand of the Philistines.
परमप्रभुले तिमीसँगै इस्राएललाई पलिश्तीहरूको हातमा सुम्पनुहुनेछ, र भोलि तिमी र तिम्रो छोराहरू मसँग हुनेछौ । परमप्रभुले इस्राएको फौजलाई पनि पलिश्तीहरूको हातमा दिनुहुनेछ ।”
20 Then Saul fell straightway his full length upon the earth, and was sore afraid, because of the words of Samuel: and there was no strength in him; for he had eaten no bread all the day, nor all the night.
तब शाऊल तुरुन्तै भूइँमा लम्पसार परेर लमतन्न परे र शमूएलको कुराले अति नै डराए । तिनमा कुनै बल नै थिएन, किनकि तिनले त्यो दिनभरि र रातमा पनि कुनै खाने कुरा खाएका थिएनन् ।
21 And the woman came unto Saul, and saw that he was sore troubled, and said unto him, Behold, thine handmaid hath hearkened unto thy voice, and I have put my life in my hand, and have hearkened unto thy words which thou spakest unto me.
ती स्त्री शाऊलकहाँ आइन् र तिनी साह्रै ठुलो कष्टमा परेको देखिन्, उनलले तिनलाई भनिन्, “हेर्नुहोस्, तपाईंकी दासीले तपाईंको कुरा सुनेकी छिन् । मेरो जीवनलाई मैले जोखिममा पारेको छु र तपाईंले भन्नुभएको कुरा पालन गरेकी छु ।
22 Now therefore, I pray thee, hearken thou also unto the voice of thine handmaid, and let me set a morsel of bread before thee; and eat, that thou mayest have strength, when thou goest on thy way.
यसकारण अब म तपाईंलाई बिन्ती गर्छु, तपाईंकी दासीको कुरा सुन्नुहोस् र तपाईंलाई थोरै खाने कुरा दिन अनुमति दिनुहोस् । खानुहोस् ताकि तपाईं बाटो जानुहुँदा तपाईंलाई शक्ति मिलोस् ।”
23 But he refused, and said, I will not eat. But his servants, together with the woman, constrained him; and he hearkened unto their voice. So he arose from the earth, and sat upon the bed.
तर शाऊलले इन्कार गरे र भने, “मैले खाने छैन ।” तर ती स्त्रीसहित तिनका सेवकहरूले तिनलाई बाध्य बनाए र तिनले तिनीहरूको कुरा माने । त्यसैले तिनी भूइँबाट उठे र ओछ्यानमा बसे ।
24 And the woman had a fatted calf in the house; and she hasted, and killed it; and she took flour, and kneaded it, and did bake unleavened bread thereof:
ती स्त्रीको घरमा पालेको एउटा बाछो थियो । उनले त्यसलाई हतार काटिन् । उनले पिठो लिइन् र मुछिन् अनि यसको अखमिरी रोटी पकाइन् ।
25 and she brought it before Saul, and before his servants; and they did eat. Then they rose up, and went away that night.
उनले यो शाऊल र तिनका सेवकहरूकहाँ ल्याइन् र तिनीहरूले खाए । त्यसपछि तिनीहरू उठे र त्यही रातमा निस्किए ।
