Joshua 10
1 Now it came to pass, when Adoni-zedek king of Jerusalem heard how Joshua had taken Ai, and had utterly destroyed it; as he had done to Jericho and her king, so he had done to Ai and her king; and how the inhabitants of Gibeon had made peace with Israel, and were among them;
यरूशलेमका राजा अदोनिसेदेकले यहोशूले ऐलाई कब्जा गरेका र यसलाई (तिनले यरीहो र यसका राजालाई गरेझैँ) पूर्ण रूपमा नष्ट गरेका कुरा सुने, अनि गिबोनका मानिसहरूले इस्राएलसँग कसरी शान्ति सम्झौता गरे र तिनीहरूका माझ बस्छन् भन्ने पनि सुने ।
2 that they feared greatly, because Gibeon was a great city, as one of the royal cities, and because it was greater than Ai, and all the men thereof were mighty.
यरूशलेमका मानिसहरू साह्रै भयभीत भए, किनभने गिबोन राजकीय सहरहरूमध्ये एकजस्तै ठुलो सहर थियो । यो ऐभन्दा ठुलो र यसका सबै मानिस शक्तिशाली योद्धाहरू थिए ।
3 Wherefore Adoni-zedek king of Jerusalem sent unto Hoham king of Hebron, and unto Piram king of Jarmuth, and unto Japhia king of Lachish, and unto Debir king of Eglon, saying,
त्यसैले यरूशलेमका राजा अदोनिसेदेकले हेब्रोनका राजा होहाम, यर्मूतका राजा पिराम, लाकीशका राजा यापी र एग्लोनका राजा दबीरलाई एउटा सन्देश पठाए,
4 Come up unto me, and help me, and let us smite Gibeon: for it hath made peace with Joshua and with the children of Israel.
“मकहाँ आउनुहोस् र गिबोनलाई आक्रमण गर्न मलाई सहायता गर्नुहोस् किनभने तिनीहरूले यहोशू र इस्राएलका मानिसहरूसँग शान्ति सम्झौता गरेका छन् ।”
5 Therefore the five kings of the Amorites, the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, the king of Eglon, gathered themselves together, and went up, they and all their hosts, and encamped against Gibeon, and made war against it.
पाँच एमोरी राजा अर्थात् हेब्रोनका राजा, यर्मूतका राजा, लाकीशका राजा र एग्लोनका राजा, उनीहरू र उनीहरूका सबै फौजले गिबोनविरुद्ध मोर्चा बाँधे र उनीहरूले यसलाई आक्रमण गरे ।
6 And the men of Gibeon sent unto Joshua to the camp to Gilgal, saying, Slack not thy hand from thy servants; come up to us quickly, and save us, and help us: for all the kings of the Amorites that dwell in the hill country are gathered together against us.
गिबोनका मानिसहरूले यहोशू र गिलगालमा भएका फौजलाई समाचार पठाए । उनीहरूले भने, “चाँडो गर्नुहोस्! तपाईंका दासहरूबाट आफ्ना हातहरू नखिँच्नुहोस् । हामीकहाँ चाँडो गरी आउनुहोस् र हामीलाई बचाउनुहोस् । हामीलाई सहायता गर्नुहोस्, किनभने पहाडी देशहरूमा बस्ने सबै एमोरी राजा हामीलाई आक्रमण गर्न भेला भएका छन् ।”
7 So Joshua went up from Gilgal, he, and all the people of war with him, and all the mighty men of valour.
यहोशू, तिनी र तिनीसँग भएका युद्ध गर्ने सबै अनि लड्ने सबै मानिस गिलगालबाट गए ।
8 And the LORD said unto Joshua, Fear them not: for I have delivered them into thine hands; there shall not a man of them stand before thee.
परमप्रभुले यहोशूलाई भन्नुभयो, “उनीहरूसँग नडरा । मैले उनीहरूलाई तेरो हातमा दिएको छु । उनीहरू कसैले पनि तेरो आक्रमणलाई रोक्न सक्ने छैनन् ।
9 Joshua therefore came upon them suddenly; [for] he went up from Gilgal all the night.
यहशूले रातभरि यात्रा गरेर उनीहरूमाथि अचानक जाइलागे ।
10 And the LORD discomfited them before Israel, and he slew them with a great slaughter at Gibeon, and chased them by the way of the ascent of Beth-horon, and smote them to Azekah, and unto Makkedah.
परमप्रभुले इस्राएलका सामु शत्रुहरूलाई अन्योलमा पार्नुभयो, र इस्राएलले गिबोनमा ठुलो संहारको साथ उनीहरूलाई मारे अनि उनीहरूलाई बेथ-होरोनसम्मै खेदे । तिनीहरूले आजेका र मक्केदाको बाटोसम्मै उनीहरूलाई मारे ।
11 And it came to pass, as they fled from before Israel, while they were in the going down of Beth-horon, that the LORD cast down great stones from heaven upon them unto Azekah, and they died: they were more which died with the hailstones than they whom the children of Israel slew with the sword.
जब तिनीहरू इस्राएलबाट बेथ-होरोनको डाँडाको ओरालोमा झरे, परमप्रभुले स्वर्गबाट ठुला-ठुला असिनाहरू बर्साउनुभयो र उनीहरू मरे । इस्राएलका मानिसहरूले तरवारले मारेका भन्दा असिनाको कारण मरेकाहरू धैरै थिए । त्यस दिन परमप्रभुले इस्राएलका मानिसहरूलाई एमोरीहरूमाथि विजय दिनुभयो,
12 Then spake Joshua to the LORD in the day when the LORD delivered up the Amorites before the children of Israel; and he said in the sight of Israel, Sun, stand thou still upon Gibeon; and thou, Moon, in the valley of Aijalon.
अनि यहोशू परमप्रभुसँग बोले । यहोशूले इस्राएलको सामु परमप्रभुलाई यसो भने, “ए सूर्य, गिबोनमाथि र ए चन्द्र अय्यालोनको बेँसीमा अडिरह ।” जातिले तिनीहरूका शत्रुहरूमाथि बदला नलिएसम्म सूर्य अडियो र चन्द्र रोकियो । के यो याशारको पुस्तकमा लेखिएको छैन र?
13 And the sun stood still, and the moon stayed, until the nation had avenged themselves of their enemies. Is not this written in the book of Jashar? And the sun stayed in the midst of heaven, and hasted not to go down about a whole day.
सूर्य आकाशको बिचमा रहिरह्यो; यो झण्डै पुरै दिनभरि नै अस्ताएन ।
14 And there was no day like that before it or after it, that the LORD hearkened unto the voice of a man: for the LORD fought for Israel.
परमप्रभुले मानव-जातिको कुरा सुन्नुभयो, यसअगि र यसपछि कहिल्यै पनि यस्तो भएको छैन । किनभने परमप्रभुले इस्राएलको तर्फबाट युद्ध लडिरहनुभएको थियो ।
15 And Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, unto the camp to Gilgal.
यहोशू र तिनीसँग भएका सबै इस्राएली गिलगालको छाउनीमा फर्के ।
16 And these five kings fled, and hid themselves in the cave at Makkedah.
अब पाँच जना राजा उम्केका र आफै मक्केदाको गुफामा लुकेका थिए ।
17 And it was told Joshua, saying, The five kings are found, hidden in the cave at Makkedah.
यहोशूलाई यसो भनियो, “पाँच जना राजा मक्केदाको गुफामा लुकेको भेट्टाइए ।”
18 And Joshua said, Roll great stones unto the mouth of the cave, and set men by it for to keep them:
यहोशूले भने, “गुफाको मुखमा ठुला-ठुला ढुङ्गाहरू गुडाएर राख र उनीहरूको सुरक्षाको निम्ति सिपाहीहरू खटाओ ।
19 but stay not ye; pursue after your enemies, and smite the hindmost of them; suffer them not to enter into their cities: for the LORD your God hath delivered them into your hand.
तिमीहरूचाहिँ नबस । तिमीहरूका शत्रुहरूको पिछा गर र पछाडिबाट आक्रमण गर । उनीहरूको सहरमा पस्न नदेओ किनभने परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्वरले उनीहरूलाई तिमीहरूका हातमा दिनुभएको छ ।”
20 And it came to pass, when Joshua and the children of Israel had made an end of slaying them with a very great slaughter, till they were consumed, and the remnant which remained of them had entered into the fenced cities,
उनीहरू झण्डै पूर्ण रूपमा नष्ट नभएसम्म नै यहोशू र इस्राएलका सन्तानहरूले उनीहरूलाई ठुलो संहारको साथ संहार गरिसिद्ध्याएका थिए; केही बचेकाहरू मात्र उम्केर किल्ला भएको सहरमा पुगे ।
21 that all the people returned to the camp to Joshua at Makkedah in peace: none moved his tongue against any of the children of Israel.
त्यसपछि सबै फौज मक्केदाको छाउनीमा यहोशूकहाँ शान्तिसँग फर्के । इस्राएलका मानिसहरूका विरुद्ध कसैले एक शब्द पनि बोल्ने आँट गरेन ।
22 Then said Joshua, Open the mouth of the cave, and bring forth those five kings unto me out of the cave.
यहोशूले भने, “गुफाको मुख खोल । गुफाबाट यी राजाहरूलाई लिएर आओ ।”
23 And they did so, and brought forth those five kings unto him out of the cave, the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, the king of Eglon.
तिनीहरूले तिनले भनेझैँ गरे । तिनीहरूले यरूशलेमका राजा, हेब्रोनका राजा, यार्मूतका राजा, लाकीशका राजा र एग्लोनका राजा अर्थात् यी पाँच जना राजालाई गुफाबाट बाहिर ल्याए ।
24 And it came to pass, when they brought forth those kings unto Joshua, that Joshua called for all the men of Israel, and said unto the chiefs of the men of war which went with him, Come near, put your feet upon the necks of these kings. And they came near, and put their feet upon the necks of them.
जब तिनीहरूले राजाहरूलाई यहोशूकहाँ ल्याए, तिनले इस्राएलका सबै मानिसलाई बोलाए । तिनले तिनीसँग युद्धमा जाने सेनाहरूका सेनापतिहरूलाई भने, “उनीहरूको गर्दनमा तिमीहरूको खुट्टाले टेक ।” त्यसैले तिनीहरू आए र उनीहरूका गर्दनमाथि तिनीहरूका खुट्टाले टेके ।
25 And Joshua said unto them, Fear not, nor be dismayed; be strong and of good courage: for thus shall the LORD do to all your enemies against whom ye fight.
अनि तिनले तिनीहरूलाई भने, “नडराओ, र निराश नहोओ । बलियो र साहसी होओ । तिमीहरूले लड्न गइरहेका तिमीहरूका शत्रुहरूलाई परमप्रभुले यसै गर्नुहुन्छ ।”
26 And afterward Joshua smote them, and put them to death, and hanged them on five trees: and they were hanging upon the trees until the evening.
अनि यहोशूले आक्रमण गरी राजाहरूलाई मारे । तिनले उनीहरूलाई पाँचवटा रुखमा झुण्ड्याए । तिनीहरूले उनीहरूलाई साँझसम्म झुण्ड्याए ।
27 And it came to pass at the time of the going down of the sun, that Joshua commanded, and they took them down off the trees, and cast them into the cave wherein they had hidden themselves, and laid great stones on the mouth of the cave, unto this very day.
घाम अस्ताउँदा यहोशूले आज्ञा दिए र तिनीहरूले उनीहरूलाई रुखबाट तल झारे अनि उनीहरू लुकेका गुफाभित्र नै उनीहरूलाई फ्याँकिदिए । तिनीहरूले गुफाको मुखमा ठुला-ठुला ढुङ्गाहरू राखे । ती ढुङ्गाहरू आजसम्म पनि छन् ।
28 And Joshua took Makkedah on that day, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and the king thereof; he utterly destroyed them and all the souls that were therein, he left none remaining: and he did to the king of Makkedah as he had done unto the king of Jericho.
यसरी, यहोशूले त्यस दिन मक्केदा कब्जा गरे र यसका राजासहित त्यहाँ भएका सबैलाई तरवारले मारे । तिनले यसमा भएका सबैलाई पूर्ण रूपमा नष्ट पारे । तिनले कसैलाई पनि जीवित छोडेनन् । तिनले मक्केदाका राजालाई यरीहोका राजालाई झैँ गरे ।
29 And Joshua passed from Makkedah, and all Israel with him, unto Libnah, and fought against Libnah:
यहोशू र सारा इस्राएल मक्केदाबाट लिब्नातिर गए । तिनले लिब्नाविरुद्ध लडे ।
30 and the LORD delivered it also, and the king thereof, into the hand of Israel; and he smote it with the edge of the sword, and all the souls that were therein; he left none remaining in it; and he did unto the king thereof as he had done unto the king of Jericho.
परमप्रभुले यसलाई उनीहरूका राजासहित इस्राएलको हातमा दिनुभयो । यहोशूले यसलाई र यसमा भएका सबैलाई तरवारले प्रहार गरे । तिनले यसमा कसैलाई जीवित छाडेनन् । तिनले यसका राजालाई यरीहोका राजालाई झैँ गरे ।
31 And Joshua passed from Libnah, and all Israel with him, unto Lachish, and encamped against it, and fought against it:
यहोशू र तिनीसँग भएका सबै इस्राएल लिब्नाबाट लाकीशतिर अगि बढे । तिनले यसको नजिकै छाउनी हाले र यसविरुद्ध लडे ।
32 and the LORD delivered Lachish into the hand of Israel, and he took it on the second day, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and all the souls that were therein, according to all that he had done to Libnah.
परमप्रभुले लाकीशलाई इस्राएलको हातमा दिनुभयो । यहोशूले यसलाई दोस्रो दिनमा कब्जा गरे र तिनले लिब्नालाई गरेजस्तै यसलाई र यसमा भएका सबैलाई तरवारले प्रहार गरे ।
33 Then Horam king of Gezer came up to help Lachish; and Joshua smote him and his people, until he had left him none remaining.
त्यसपछि गेजेरका राजा होराम लाकीशलाई सहायता गर्न आए । यहोशूले उनलाई र उनीसँग भएका फौजलाई एक जना पनि जीवित नराखी आक्रमण गरे ।
34 And Joshua passed from Lachish, and all Israel with him, unto Eglon; and they encamped against it, and fought against it;
त्यसपछि यहोशू र सारा इस्राएल लाकीशबाट एग्लोनतिर अगि बढे । तिनीहरूले यसको नजिकै छाउनी हाले र यसविरुद्ध युद्ध गरे,
35 and they took it on that day, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and all the souls that were therein he utterly destroyed that day, according to all that he had done to Lachish.
र त्यसै दिन यसलाई कब्जा गरे । तिनीहरूले यसलाई तरवारले प्रहार गरे र यहोशूले लाकीशलाई गरे झैँ यसमा भएका सबैलाई पूर्ण रूपमा नष्ट पारे ।
36 And Joshua went up from Eglon, and all Israel with him, unto Hebron; and they fought against it:
त्यसपछि यहोशू र सारा इस्राएल एग्लोनबाट हेब्रोनतिर अगि बढे । तिनीहरूले यसविरुद्ध युद्ध गरे ।
37 and they took it, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and the king thereof, and all the cities thereof, and all the souls that were therein; he left none remaining, according to all that he had done to Eglon; but he utterly destroyed it, and all the souls that were therein.
तिनीहरूले यसलाई, यसका राजा, यसका गाउँहरू र यसमा भएका सबैलाई तरवारले प्रहार गरे । तिनीहरूले यसमा कसैलाई जीवित छाडेनन् । तिनीहरूले एग्लोनलाई जे गरेका थिए, तिनीहरूले यसलाई र यसमा भएका हरेकलाई पूर्ण रूपमा नष्ट पारे ।
38 And Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, to Debir; and fought against it:
त्यसपछि यहोशू र तिनीसँग भएका सबै फौज फर्के र तिनीहरू दबीरतिर लागे र यसविरुद्ध युद्ध गरे ।
39 and he took it, and the king thereof, and all the cities thereof; and they smote them with the edge of the sword, and utterly destroyed all the souls that were therein; he left none remaining: as he had done to Hebron, so he did to Debir, and to the king thereof; as he had done also to Libnah, and to the king thereof.
तिनीहरूले यसलाई, यसका राजा र यस नजिकका सबै गाउँलाई कब्जा गरे । तिनीहरूले उनीहरूलाई तरवारले प्रहार गरे र यसमा भएका हरेकलाई पूर्ण रूपमा नष्ट पारे । तिनीहरूले कसैलाई पनि जीवित छाडेनन् । तिनीहरूले लिब्नालाई र यसका राजालाई र हेब्रोनलाई गरेझैँ दबीरलाई पनि गरे ।
40 So Joshua smote all the land, the hill country, and the South, and the lowland, and the slopes, and all their kings; he left none remaining: but he utterly destroyed all that breathed, as the LORD, the God of Israel, commanded.
यहोशूले पहाडी देश, नेगेव, समथर भूमि र पहाडहरूका सबै भूमिमाथि विजय हासिल गरे । उनीहरूका कुनै पनि राजा जीवित रहेनन् । परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्वरले आज्ञा गर्नुभएजस्तै तिनले सबै थोकलाई पूर्ण रूपमा नष्ट पारे ।
41 And Joshua smote them from Kadesh-barnea even unto Gaza, and all the country of Goshen, even unto Gibeon.
यहोशूले कादेश-बर्नेदेखि गाजासम्म र गोशेनदेखि गोबोनसम्म सब देशलाई प्रहार गरे ।
42 And all these kings and their land did Joshua take at one time, because the LORD, the God of Israel, fought for Israel.
यहशूले यी सबै राजा र उनीहरूका भूमिलाई एकै पटकमा कब्जा गरे, किनभने परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमश्वर इस्राएलको पक्षमा युद्ध गर्नुभयो ।
43 And Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, unto the camp to Gilgal.
त्यसपछि यहोशू र तिनीसँग भएका सबै इस्राएल गिलगालको छाउनीमा फर्के ।
