< 2 Chronicles 12 >
1 And it came to pass, when Rehoboam had established the kingdom, and had strengthened himself, he forsook the law of Yahweh, —and all Israel with him.
यस्तो भयो, जब रहबामको राज्य स्थापित भयो र तिनी शक्तिशाली भए, तब तिनले परमप्रभुको व्यवस्था त्यागे— र तिनीसँगै जम्मै इस्राएलले पनि त्यागे ।
2 And so it came to pass, in the fifth year of King Rehoboam, that Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem, —because they had dealt treacherously against Yahweh; —
रहबाम राजाको शासनकालको पाँचौं वर्षमा मिश्रदेशका राजा शीशक यरूशलेमको विरुद्ध आए, किनभने मानिसहरू परमप्रभुप्रति अविश्वासी भएका थिए।
3 with twelve hundred chariots, and with sixty thousand horsemen, -and, without number, the people who came with him out of Egypt—Lybians, Sukkiim, and Ethiopians.
तिनी बाह्र सय रथ र साठी हजार घोडचढी लिएर आए । तिनीसँग मिश्रदेशबाट आएका असंख्य फौज हरूः लिबियाली, सुक्किया र कूशीहरू आए ।
4 And he captured the cities of defence which belonged to Judah, —and came, as far as Jerusalem.
तिनले यहूदाका किल्लाबन्दी गरिएका सहरहरू जिते र यरूशलेममा आइपुगे ।
5 And, Shemaiah the prophet, came unto Rehoboam, and the rulers of Judah, who had gathered themselves together unto Jerusalem because of Shishak, —and said unto them, Thus, saith Yahweh, Ye, have left, me, Therefore, I also, have left, you, in the hands of Shishak.
शीशकको कारणले यरूशलेममा भेला भएका रहबाम र यहूदाका अगुवाहरू भएको ठाउँमा शमयाह अगमवक्ता आए । शमायाहले तिनीहरूलाई भने, “परमप्रभु यसो भन्नुहुन्छ: ‘तिमीहरूले मलाई त्यागेका छौ, यसैले मैले पनि तिमीहरूलाई शीशकको हातमा सुम्पिदिएको छु’ ।”
6 Then the rulers of Israel and the king humbled themselves, —and said, Righteous, is Yahweh!
तब इस्राएलका शासकहरू र राजाले आफूलाई विनम्र बनाए र भने, “परमप्रभु धर्मी हुनुहुन्छ ।”
7 And, when Yahweh saw that they humbled themselves, the word of Yahweh came unto Shemaiah, saying—They have humbled themselves, I will not destroy them, —but will grant them, in a little while, to escape, and my wrath shall not be poured out upon Jerusalem, by the hand of Shishak.
जब तिनीहरूले आफूलाई विनम्र तुल्याएका छन् भनी जब परमप्रभुले देख्नुभयो, तब परमप्रभुको वचन शमायाहकहाँ यसो भनेर आयो, “तिनीहरूले आफूलाई विनम्र तुल्याएका छन् । म तिनीहरूलाई विनाश गर्नेछैनँ । म तिनीहरूलाई केही हदसम्म उद्धार गर्नेछु, र शीशकको हातद्वारा यरूशलेममा म आफ्नो क्रोध खन्याउनेछैनँ ।
8 Nevertheless they shall become his servants, that they may know my service, and the service of the kingdoms of the countries.
तापनि तिनीहरू त्यसका सेवकहरू हुनेछन् ताकि मेरो सेवा गर्नु र अरू देशका शासकहरूका सेवा गर्नमा के भिन्नता रहेछ सो तिनीहरूले थाहा पाउनेछन् ।”
9 So Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem, and took the treasures of the house of Yahweh, and the treasures of the house of the king, the whole, he took, —and he took the bucklers of gold, which Solomon had made.
यसैले मिश्रदेशका राजा शीशक यरूशलेमको विरुद्ध आए र परमप्रभुको मन्दिर कोषहरू र राजाको महलका भण्डारका धन-सम्पत्ति लुटेर लगे । तिनले हरेक कुरा लगे । सोलोमनले बनाएका सुनका ढालहरू पनि तिनले लगे ।
10 And King Rehoboam made, instead of them, bucklers of bronze, —and committed them unto the hand of the captains of the runners, who kept guard at the entrance of the house of the king.
रहबाम राजाले तिनको सट्टामा काँसाका ढालहरू बनाए र राजाका महलको ढोकाहरूका रक्षा गर्ने रक्षकहरूका कमाण्डरहरूका जिम्मामा दिए ।
11 And so it was, whensoever the king came into the house of Yahweh, the runners came and bare them, and then returned them into the chamber of the runners.
जब राजा परमप्रभुको मन्दिरभित्र पस्थे, तब रक्षकहरू ती बोक्थे । अनि तिनीहरूले रक्षक बस्ने कोठामा फेरि ती फर्काउँथे ।
12 But, when he humbled himself, then turned from him the anger of Yahweh, that he would not destroy, to make an end, —moreover also, in Judah, there were some good things.
जब रहबामले आफूलाई विनम्र तुल्याए, तब तिनलाइ पुरै नष्ट नगर्नलाई परमप्रभुको क्रोध तिनीबाट हट्यो । यसका अतिरिक्त, यहूदामा केही असल कुरा अझै बाँकी थियो ।
13 So King Rehoboam strengthened himself in Jerusalem, and reigned, —because, forty-one years old, was Rehoboam when he began to reign, and, seventeen years, reigned he in Jerusalem, the city which Yahweh had chosen, to set his Name there—from among all the tribes of Israel, and, the name of his mother, was Naamah, the Ammonitess.
यसरी रहबाम राजाले यरूशलेममा आफ्नो राजकाज बलियो बनाए, र यसरी तिनले राज्य गरे । रहबामले राज्य गर्न सुरु गर्दा तिनी एकचालीस वर्षका थिए, र परमप्रभुले इस्राएलका सारा कुलबाट आफ्नो नाउँ राख्नका निम्ति चुन्नुभएको सहर यरूशलेममा तिनले सत्र वर्ष राज्य गरे । तिनकी आमाको नाउँ अम्मोनी स्त्री नामा थियो ।
14 But he did evil, —in that he did not fix his heart to seek Yahweh.
तिनले जे खराब थियो त्यही गरे, किनभने तिनले आफ्नो हृदय परमप्रभुको खोजी गर्न लगाएनन् ।
15 Now, the story of Rehoboam, first and last, is it not written in the story of Shemaiah the prophet and Iddo the seer, for enrolling, -also the wars of Rehoboam and Jeroboam, all the days?
रहबामको राजकालका घटनाहरू सुरुदेखि अन्त्यसम्म शमायाह अगमवक्ता र दर्शी इद्दोका इतिहासका पुस्तकहरूमा समेत लेखिएका छैनन् र, जसमा वंशक्रमहरू र रहबाम र यारोबामका बीचमा निरन्तर भएको युद्धका अभिलेख पनि राखिएको छन्?
16 And Rehoboam slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David, —and Abijah his son reigned in his stead.
रहबाम आफ्ना पुर्खाहरूसित सुते, र दाऊदको सहरमा गाडिए । तिनका छोरा अबिया तिनका ठाउँमा राजा भए ।
