< 2 Chronicles 21 >
1 And Jehoshaphat slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David: and Jehoram his son reigned in his stead.
यहोशापात आफ्ना पुर्खाहरूसित सुते र तिनीहरूसँग दाऊदको सहरमा गाडिए । तिनका ठाउँमा तिनका छोरा यहोराम राजा भए ।
2 And he had brethren the sons of Jehoshaphat, Azariah, and Jehiel, and Zechariah, and Azariah, and Michael, and Shephatiah: all these were the sons of Jehoshaphat king of Israel.
यहोरामका भाइहरू, यहोशापातका छोराहरू अजर्याह, यहीएल, जकरिया, अजर्याह, मिखाएल र शपत्याह थिए । यी सबै इस्राएलका राजा यहोशापातका छोराहरू थिए ।
3 And their father gave them great gifts, of silver, and of gold, and of precious things, with fenced cities in Judah: but the kingdom gave he to Jehoram, because he was the firstborn.
तिनका बुबाले तिनीहरूलाई सुन, चाँदी र बहुमूल्य थोकहरूका ठुला उपहारहरू र यहूदाका किल्ला भएका सहरहरू पनि दिए, तर राज्यचाहिं तिनले यहोरामलाई नै दिए ।
4 Now when Jehoram was risen up over the kingdom of his father, and had strengthened himself, he slew all his brethren with the sword, and divers also of the princes of Israel.
जब यहोराम आफ्ना बुबाको राज्यमा उदाएका र आफैलाई राजाको रूपमा बलियोसँग स्थापित गरेका थिए, तब तिनले आफ्ना सबै भाइलाई र इस्राएलका धेरै जना अगुवालाई तरवारले मारे ।
5 Jehoram was thirty and two years old when he began to reign; and he reigned eight years in Jerusalem.
यहोरामले राज्य गर्न सुरु गर्दा तिनी बत्तिस वर्षका थिए र तिनले येरूशलेममा आठ वर्ष राज्य गरे ।
6 And he walked in the way of the kings of Israel, as did the house of Ahab: for he had the daughter of Ahab to wife: and he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD.
आहाबका घरानाले गरेझैं तिनी इस्राएलका राजाहरूका चालमा हिंडे, किनकि तिनले आहाबकी छोरीलाई आफ्नी पत्नीको रूपमा ल्याए, र तिनले परमप्रभुको दृष्टिमा जे खराब थियो सो गरे ।
7 Howbeit the LORD would not destroy the house of David, because of the covenant that he had made with David, and as he promised to give a lamp to him and to his children alway.
तापनि दाऊदसित परमप्रभुले गर्नुभएको करारको खातिर उहाँले दाऊदको घरानालाई नाश गर्ने इच्छा गर्नुभएन । उहाँले दाऊद र तिनका सन्तानहरूलाई सधैँ जीवन दिने प्रतिज्ञा उहाँले गर्नुभएको थियो ।
8 In his days Edom revolted from under the hand of Judah, and made a king over themselves.
यहोरामको समयमा एदोमले यहूदाको अधीनताको विरोध गर्यो, र तिनीहरूले आफ्नै राजा स्थापित गरे ।
9 Then Jehoram passed over with his captains, and all his chariots with him: and he rose up by night, and smote the Edomites which compassed him about, and the captains of the chariots.
तब यहोराम आफ्ना फौज पतिहरू र सबै रथका साथमा एदोमतिर गए । तिनी उठेर एदोमीहरूसँग युद्ध गर्दा रात परेको थियो । एदोमीहरूले तिनी र तिनका रथका फौज पतिहरूलाई घेरेका थिए ।
10 So Edom revolted from under the hand of Judah, unto this day: then did Libnah revolt at the same time from under his hand: because he had forsaken the LORD, the God of his fathers.
यसैले एदोम आजको दिनसम्मै यहूदाको अधीनताको विरुद्धमा छ । त्यसै बेला लिब्नाले पनि तिनको अधीनताको विरुद्धमा विद्रोह गर्यो, किनभने यहोरामले परमप्रभु आफ्ना पुर्खाहरूका परमेश्वरलाई त्यागेका थिए ।
11 Moreover he made high places in the mountains of Judah, and made the inhabitants of Jerusalem to go a whoring, and led Judah astray.
यसबाहेक यहोरामले यहूदाका पहाडमा अल्गा ठाउँहरू पनि बनाएका थिए र तिनले यरूशलेमका बासिन्दाहरूलाई वेश्याहरूजस्तै जिउने बनाए र यहूदालाई कुमार्गमा लगाए ।
12 And there came a writing to him from Elijah the prophet, saying, Thus saith the LORD, the God of David thy father, Because thou hast not walked in the ways of Jehoshaphat thy father, nor in the ways of Asa king of Judah;
एलिया अगमवक्ताबाट यहोरामकहाँ एउटा पत्र आयो । त्यसमा लेखिएको थियो, “तपाईंका पुर्खा दाऊदका परमप्रभु परमेश्वर यसो भन्नुहुन्छ: ‘तँ आफ्ना बुबा यहोशापात चालमा चलिनस्, न त यहूदाका राजा आसाको चालमा नै चलिस्,
13 but hast walked in the way of the kings of Israel, and hast made Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem to go a whoring, like as the house of Ahab did; and also hast slain thy brethren of thy father’s house, which were better than thyself:
तर आहाबको घरानाले गरेझैं इस्राएलका राजाहरूका चालमा चलेर आहाबको परिवारले गरेजस्तै तैंले यहूदा र यरूशलेमका बासिन्दाहरूलाई वेश्याहरूजस्तै गर्न लगाइस्, र तैंले तँभन्दा असल तेरा बुबाका परिवारका आफ्नै भाइहरू, तँभन्दा असल मानिसहरू पनि तैंले मारिस् —
14 behold, the LORD will smite with a great plague thy people, and thy children, and thy wives, and all thy substance:
हेर्, तेरा मानिसहरू, तेरा छोराछोरी, तेरी पत्नीहरू र तेरा सबै धन-सम्पत्तिमा परमप्रभुले प्रहार गर्नुहुनेछ ।
15 and thou shalt have great sickness by disease of thy bowels, until thy bowels fall out by reason of the sickness, day by day.
तँ आफैलाई चाहिं निको नहुने आन्द्राको रोग हुनेछ । त्यसले गर्दा दिनदिनै तेरा आन्द्रा बाहिर निस्केर आउनेछन् ।”
16 And the LORD stirred up against Jehoram the spirit of the Philistines, and of the Arabians which are beside the Ethiopians:
परमप्रभुले यहोरामको विरुद्धमा कूशीहरूका नजिकै बस्ने पलिश्ती र अरबीहरूलाई उक्साउनुभयो ।
17 and they came up against Judah, and brake into it, and carried away all the substance that was found in the king’s house, and his sons also, and his wives; so that there was never a son left him, save Jehoahaz, the youngest of his sons.
तिनीहरूले यहूदालाई हमला गरेर आक्रमण गरे र राजाको महलमा फेला पारेका सबै धन-सम्पत्ति लिएर गए । तिनीहरूले तिनका छोराहरू र पत्नीहरू पनि लगे । कान्छा छोरा अहज्याहबाहेक तिनका कुनै छोरा पनि बाँकी रहेन ।
18 And after all this the LORD smote him in his bowels with an incurable disease.
यी सबै भएपछि परमप्रभुले यहोरामलाई निको नहुने रोगले आन्द्रामा प्रहार गर्नुभयो ।
19 And it came to pass, in process of time, at the end of two years, that his bowels fell out by reason of his sickness, and he died of sore diseases. And his people made no burning for him, like the burning of his fathers.
त्यस रोगले तिनलाई केही समयसम्म सताइरह्यो । अनि दोस्रो वर्षको अन्तमा त्यही रोगले तिनका आन्द्रा बाहिर निस्के, र तिनी गम्भीर रोगले मरे । तिनको सम्मान गर्नलाई तिनका मानिसहरूले आगो बालेनन्, जस्तो तिनीहरूले तिनका पुर्खाहरूका निम्ति गरेका थिए ।
20 Thirty and two years old was he when he began to reign, and he reigned in Jerusalem eight years: and he departed without being desired; and they buried him in the city of David, but not in the sepulchres of the kings.
तिनी बत्तिस वर्षको हुँदा तिनले राज्य गर्न सुरु गरेका थिए । तिनले यरूशलेममा आठ वर्ष राज्य गरे, र तिनी मर्दा कसैले पनि शोक गरेन । तिनीहरूले तिनलाई दाऊदको सहरमा गाडे, तर राजाहरूका चिहानमा होइन ।
