< 2 Samuel 7 >

1 After [King] David began to live in his palace, Yahweh protected him from all his enemies.
राजाले आफ्नो घर व्यवस्थित गरेपछि र तिनका वरिपरिका सबै शत्रुबाट परमप्रभुले विश्राम दिनुभएपछि,
2 One day he said to the prophet Nathan, “[It is not right that] I am here, living in a [beautiful] house made of cedar [wood], but the chest that contains God’s Ten Commandments is kept in a tent!”
राजाले नतान अगमवक्‍तालाई भने, “हे्र्नुहोस्, म देवदारुको महलमा बसिरहेको छु, तर परमेश्‍वरको सन्दुकचाहिं पालको माझमा रहिरहेको छ ।”
3 Then Nathan said to the king, “Yahweh is helping/directing you, so do [regarding that chest] whatever you are thinking.”
त्यसपछी नातानने राजालाई भने, “जानुहोस्, तपाईंको मनमा जे छ सो गर्नुहोस्, किनभने परमप्रभु तपाईंसँग हुनुहुन्छ ।”
4 But that night, Yahweh said to Nathan,
तर त्यसै रात परमप्रभुको वचन नातानकहाँ यसो भनेर आयो,
5 “Go and tell my servant, David, that this is what [I], Yahweh, am saying to him: ‘You are not the one [RHQ] who should build a temple for me to live in.
“जा र मेरो दास दाऊदलाई भन्, 'परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर यसो भन्‍नुहुन्छ, 'के तैंले मेरो निम्ति बस्‍नलाई मन्‍दिर बनाउने छस्?
6 I have not lived in any building from the day that I brought the Israeli people up from Egypt until now. Instead, I have been living in a tent, moving from one place to another [when the Israelis] moved to other places.
किनकि मैले इस्राएलका मानिसलाई मिश्र देशबाट ल्याएको दिनदेखि वर्तमान्‌ समयसम्म नै म मन्‍दिरमा बसेको छैन । बरु, म पालमा अर्थात् पवित्र वासस्थानमा नै घुमिहिंडेको छु ।
7 Wherever I went with all the Israelis [as they traveled], I never said [RHQ] to any of their leaders whom I appointed to lead them, “Why have you not built me a temple made of cedar [wood]?”’
इस्राएलका सबै मानिस माझमा म घुमफिर गरेका सबै ठाउँमा, मेरा मानिस इस्राएलका रेखदेख गर्न मैले नियुक्‍ति गरेका इस्राएलका कुनै पनि अगुवालाई मैले कहिलै यसो भनें र, “तैंले मेरो निम्ति किन देवदारुको मन्‍दिर बनाएको छैनस्?”
8 So this is what you should say to my servant David: ‘The Almighty Commander of the armies of angels says that he took you from a pasture where you were taking care of sheep, [and appointed you] to become the ruler of my Israeli people.
अब उप्रान्‍त, मेरो सेवक दाऊदलाई यसो भन्, 'सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभु भन्‍नुहुन्छ, 'मैले तँलाई खर्कबाट, भेडाहरूको पछिपछि हिंड्न छोडेर बोलाएँ, ताकि तैंले मेरा मानिस इस्राएलाई शासन गर्नुपर्छ ।
9 I have (been with/helped) you wherever you have gone. I have gotten rid of all your enemies as you advanced. I will enable you to become very famous, as well-known as the names of all the greatest men [who have ever lived] on the earth.
तँ जहाँजहाँ गए तापनि म तँसँगै गएको छु । मैले तेरा सबै शत्रुलाई तेरो सामुन्‍नेबाट नामेट पारेको छु । अब म तेरो नाउँलाई पृथ्वीका महान् नाउँहरूजस्तै महान् बनाउने छु ।
10 Formerly, during the time that I appointed leaders for my Israeli people, many violent groups oppressed the Israelis. But this will not happen any more. I have chosen a place where my Israeli people can live [peacefully] and no one will disturb them any more. I will give them rest from [being attacked by] their enemies. And I will defeat all your enemies. I declare to you that I, Yahweh, will enable your descendants to rule after you [die].
म आफ्‍ना मानिस इस्राएलको निम्ति एउटा स्थान नियुक्‍ति गर्नेछु र तिनीहरूलाई म त्यहाँ राख्‍ने छु, ताकि तिनीहरू आफ्नै ठाउँमा बसोबास गरुन् र फेरि समस्‍या नपरुन् । दुष्‍ट मानिसहरूले पहिले गरेझैं फेरि तिनीहरूलाई थिचोमिचो गर्ने छैनन् ।
जस्तो मेरा मानिस इस्राएलका निम्ति न्यायकर्ता हुनलाई मैले आज्ञा गरेका दिनहरूदेखि नै तिनीहरूले गरिरहेका थिए । अब तेरा सबै शत्रुबाट म तँलाई विश्राम दिने छु । यसको साथै, म परमप्रभुले तँलाई भन्‍छु कि म तेरो निम्ति एउटा घराना बनाउने छु ।
12 When your life ends [EUP] and you go to be with your ancestors, I will appoint one of your sons to be king, and I will enable his kingdom to (be strong/resist all their enemies).
जब तेरो दिन पुरा हुने छ र तँ आफ्‍ना पुर्खाहरूसँग सुत्‍ने छस्, तब तँपछिको तेरो सन्तानलाई म खडा गर्ने छु, जो तेरै शरीरबाट आउने छ र म त्यसको राज्य स्थापित गर्ने छु ।
13 He is the one who will arrange for a temple to be built for me [MTY], and I will cause his [descendants] to be kings [MTY] [of Israel] forever.
त्यसैले मेरो नाउँको निम्ति एउटा मन्‍दिर बनाउने छ र म त्यसको सिंहासनलाई सदाको निम्ति स्थापित गर्ने छु ।
14 I will be [like] a father to him, and [it will be as though] he [is] a son to me [MET]. When he does something that is wrong, I will punish him as fathers punish their sons.
म त्यको बुबा हुने छु र त्यो मेरो छोरा हुने छ । जब त्यसले पाप गर्छ, तब म त्यसलाई मानिसका लोरोले र मानिसका छोराहरूका कोर्राहरूले अनुशासित गर्ने छु ।
15 But I will not stop faithfully loving him as I stopped loving Saul, whom I removed from being king before you became king.
तर मेरो करारको बफदारीताको त्यसलाई छोड्ने छैन, जसरी मैले त्‍यो शाऊलबाट थिएँ, जसलाई मैले तेरो सामुबाट हटाएँ ।
16 Your descendants will rule the kingdom [of Israel] forever. Their rule will never end. [DOU]’”
तेरो घराना र राज्य तेरो सामु सदाको निम्ति सुदृढ गरिने छ । तेरो सिंहसान सदाको निम्ति स्थापित गरिने छ' ।”
17 So Nathan told David everything that Yahweh had told him.
नातानले दाऊदलाई भने, र तिनले यी सबै वचन तिनला सुनाए र तिनले उनलाई समग्र दर्शनबारे बताए ।
18 Then David went into [the Sacred Tent] and sat in the presence of Yahweh, and prayed this: “Yahweh, my God, I am not worthy [RHQ] [for you to have done all these things] for me, and my family is not worthy, either.
त्यसपछि राजा दाऊद भित्र गए र परमप्रभुको सामु बसे र यसो भने, “हे परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर, म को हुँ र मेरो परिवार के हो र मलाई यहाँसम्म ल्याउनुभएको छ?
19 “And now, O Yahweh my God, in addition to everything else, you have spoken about what will happen to my descendants in the future for many generations.
अब हे परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर, यो तपाईंको दृष्‍टिमा सानो कुरा थियो । हे परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर, तपाईंको सेवकको घरानामा धेरै समयपछि हुन आउने कुराका बारेमा पनि तपाईंले भन्‍नुभएको छ र भावी पुस्‍ताहरूका बारेमा मलाई प्रकट गर्नुभएको छ ।
20 “Yahweh God, what more can I, David, say to you [for honoring me]? Although you know very well [what I am like], Yahweh my God, you have done things for me as though I was the most important man [on the earth]!
म दाऊदले तपाईंलाई अरू भन्‍न सक्‍छु र? हे परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर, तपाईंको सेवकलाई तपाईंले चिन्‍नुभएको छ ।
21 For my sake and because it is what you wanted to do, you have done all these great things for me.
तपाईंको वचनको खातिर र तपाईंको आफ्नो उद्‍देश्‍य पूरा गर्नलाई, तपाईंले यो ठुलो काम गर्नुभएको छ र तपाईंको सेवकलाई त्‍यो प्रकट गर्नुभएको छ ।
22 “Yahweh my God, you are great. There is no one like you. Only you are God, just as we have always heard.
यसकारण, हे परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर, तपाईं महान् हुनुहुन्छ, किनकि तपाईंजस्तो कोही पनि छैन र तपाईंबाहेक कुनै परमेश्‍वर छैन, जस्तो हाम्रा आफ्नै कानले हामीले सुनेका छौं ।
23 And there is no other nation in the world like Israel. Israel is the only nation on the earth whose people you went out to rescue [RHQ]. By the great and awesome things that you did, you have become famous/well-known throughout the world. As your people advanced [through this land], you expelled other people-groups [who were here in Canaan], who worshiped other gods.
तपाईंको मानिस इस्राएलजस्तो कुन जाति छ, एउटा यस्तो जाति जसलाई तपाईं परमेश्‍वर आफैं गएर छुटकारा दिनुभयो? तपाईंले यो गर्नुभयो ताकि तपाईंको आफ्‍नो नाउँ महान् बनाउन, र तपाईंको देशको निम्ति डरलाग्‍दा कामहरू गर्न तिनीहरू तपाईंका मानिसहरू हुन सकुन् । जातिहरूलाई र तिनीहरूका देवताहरूलाई तपाईंले आफ्‍ना मानिसहरूका सामुबाट धपाउनुभयो, जसलाई तपाईंले मिश्रदेशबाट छुटकारा दिनुभयो ।
24 And you caused us Israeli people to be your people forever, and you, Yahweh, have become our God!
तपाईंले इस्राएललाई सदाको निम्ति आफ्नै मानिसको रूपमा स्थापित गर्नुभयो र तपाईं परमप्रभु नै तिनीहरूका परमेश्‍वर हुनुभयो ।
25 “And now, Yahweh my God, [I pray that you will] cause the things that you promised to me about my descendants to be fulfilled forever, and [that you will] do the things that you said [that you would do].
त्यसैले अब, हे परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर, तपाईंले आफ्नो सेवक र त्यसको घरानाको बारेमा गर्नुभएको प्रतिज्ञा सदाको निम्ति स्थापित होस् । तपाईंले जस्‍तो भन्‍नुभएको छ त्‍यस्‍तै गर्नुहोस् ।
26 When that happens, you will become famous forever, and people will exclaim, ‘The Almighty Commander of the armies of angels is the God who rules Israel.’ And you will cause that forever there will be descendants of mine who will rule.
तपाईंको नाउँ सदासर्वदा महान् होस्, ताकि मानिसहरूले भनुन्, 'सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभु नै इस्राएलका परमेश्‍वर हुनुहुन्छ' जति बेला तपाईंको सेकम म, दाऊदको घराना तपाईंको सामु स्थापित हुन्छ ।
27 “Yahweh Almighty, the God whom we Israeli people [worship], you have revealed to me that you will make some of my descendants kings. For that reason, I have been brave enough to pray like this to you.
किनकि हे सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभु, इस्राएलका परमेश्‍वर, आफ्‍नो सेवकको निम्‍ति तपाईंले एउटा घराना निर्माण गर्नुहुने छ भनी तपाईंले उसलाई प्रकट गर्नुभएको छ । यसैले म तपाईंको सेवकले तपाईंसँग प्रार्थना गर्ने आँट गरेको छु ।
28 So now, O Yahweh Almighty, because you are God, we can trust that you will do what you promise. You have promised these good things to me.
अब हे परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर, तपाईं परमेश्‍वर हुनुहुन्छ र तपाईंका वचनहरू भरपर्दा छन् र तपाईंले आफ्नो सेवकलाई यो असल प्रतिज्ञा गर्नुभएको छ ।
29 So now I ask you that if it pleases you, you will bless my descendants, in order that they may continue [to rule] forever. Yahweh God, you have promised these things, and [so I know that] you will keep blessing my descendants forever.”
अब उप्रान्त, आफ्नो सेवकको घरानालाई आशिष् दिन प्रशन्‍न हुनुहोस्, ताकि तपाईंको सामु यो सदा रहिरहोस् । किनकि हे परमप्रभु, तपाईंले यी कुराहरू भन्‍नुभएको छ र तपाईंको आशिष्‌ले तपाईंको सेवकको घरानाले सदा आशिष् पाउने छ ।
