< Numbers 32 >
1 Now the descendants of Reuben and of Gad had large numbers of livestock. When they saw the land of Jazer and Gilead, the land was a wonderful place for livestock.
रूबेन र गादका सन्तानहरूका गाईवस्तुहरू धेरै थिए । जब तिनीहरूले याजेर र गिलादको भूमी देखे, त्यो भूमी गाईवस्तुहरूको निम्ति असाध्यै राम्रो थियो ।
2 So the descendants of Gad and Reuben came and spoke to Moses, to Eleazar the priest, and to the leaders of the community. They said,
त्यसैले गाद र रूबेनका सन्तानहरू आए अनि मोशा, पुजारी एलाजार र समुदायका अगुवाहरूसँग कुरा गरे । तिनीहरूले भने,
3 “This is a list of places we have surveyed: Ataroth, Dibon, Jazer, Nimrah, Heshbon, Elealeh, Sebam, Nebo, and Beon.
“हामीले सर्वेक्षण गरेका ठाउँहरूका सूची यही होः आतारोत, दीबोन, याजेर, निम्रा, हेश्बोन, एलाले, सबाम, नेबो र बओन ।
4 These are the lands that Yahweh attacked before the community of Israel, and they are good places for livestock. We, your servants, have a lot of livestock.”
यी ठाउँहरूलाई परमप्रभुले इस्राएलका समुदायको सामु आक्रमण गर्नुभयो र तिनीहरू गाईवस्तुहरूका निम्ति राम्रा ठाउँहरू छन् । हामी तपाईंका दासहरूका गाईवस्तुहरू धेरै छन् ।”
5 They said, “If we have found favor in your eyes, let this land be given to us, your servants, as a possession. Do not make us cross over the Jordan.”
तिनीहरूले भने, “यदि हामीले तपाईंको नजरमा कृपा पाएका छौँ भने, यो भूमि तपाईंका दासहरू हामीलाई हाम्रो स्वामित्वमा दिइयोस् । हामीलाई यर्दन पारि नलैजानुहोस् ।”
6 Moses replied to the descendants of Gad and Reuben, “Should your brothers go to war while you settle down here?
मोशाले गाद र रूबेनका सन्तानहरूलाई जवाफ दिए, “के तिमीहरू बसोवास गर्दा तिमीहरूका दाजुभाइहरूचाहिँ लडाइँमा जाने?
7 Why discourage the hearts of the people of Israel from going over into the land that Yahweh has given them?
परमप्रभुले इस्राएलका मानिसहरूलाई दिनुभएको भूमिमा जानबाट तिनीहरूलाई किन निरुत्साहित पार्ने? मैले कादेश-बर्नेबाट तिमीहरूका बुबाहरूलाई भूमिको जाँचबुझ गर्न पठाउँदा तिनीहरूले त्यही गरे ।
8 Your fathers did the same thing when I sent them from Kadesh Barnea to examine the land.
तिनीहरू एश्कोलको बेँसीमा गए ।
9 They went up to the Valley of Eshkol. They saw the land and then discouraged the hearts of the people of Israel so that they refused to enter the land that Yahweh had given them.
तिनीहरूले भूमिलाई देखे र इस्राएलका मानिसहरूका मनलाई निरुत्साहित बनाए, ताकि परमप्रभुले तिनीहरूलाई दिनुभएको भूमिमा प्रवेश गर्न तिनीहरूले इन्कार गरून् ।
10 Yahweh's anger was kindled on that day. He took an oath and said,
परमप्रभुको क्रोध दन्कियो । उहाँले शपथ खानुभयो र भन्नुभयो,
11 'Surely none of the men who came up out of Egypt, from twenty years old and up, will see the land about which I swore to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, because they have not completely followed me, except for
'मैले अब्राहाम, इसहाक र याकूबलाई प्रतिज्ञा गरेका भूमिलाई मिश्रबाट आएका बिस वर्षभन्दा माथिका कसैले देख्ने छैनन्, किनभने
12 Caleb son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite, and Joshua son of Nun. Only Caleb and Joshua have completely followed me.'
यपुन्नेका छोरा कालेब र नूनका छोरा यहोशूले बाहेक तिनीहरूले मलाई पूर्ण रूपमा अनुसरण गरेका छैनन् । कालेब र यहोशूले मात्र मलाई पूर्ण रूपमा अनुसरण गरेका छन् ।'
13 So Yahweh's anger was kindled against Israel. He made them wander around in the wilderness for forty years until all the generation who had done evil in his sight was destroyed.
त्यसैले परमप्रभुको क्रोध इस्राएल विरुद्ध दन्कियो । उहाँको नजरमा दुष्टता गर्ने सबै पुस्ता विनाश नभएसम्म उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई मरुभूमिमा यताउता भौतारिन लगाउनुभयो ।
14 Look, you have risen up in your fathers' place, like just more sinful men, to add to Yahweh's burning anger toward Israel.
हेर, तिमीहरू आफ्ना बुबाहरूको स्थानमा अझ धेरै पापी मानिसहरूझैँ इस्राएलको विरुद्धमा परमप्रभुको क्रोध उराल्न खडा भएका छौ ।
15 If you turn away from following him, he will again leave Israel in the wilderness and you will have destroyed all this people.”
यदि तिमीहरू उहाँलाई पछ्याउनबाट तर्कियौ भने, उहाँले इस्राएललाई फेरि पनि मरुभूमिमा नै छोड्नुहुने छ र तिमीहरूले यी सबै मानिसलाई नष्ट पार्ने छौ ।
16 So they came near Moses and said, “Allow us to build fences here for our cattle and cities for our families.
त्यसैले तिनीहरू मोशाको नजिक आए र भने, “यहाँ हाम्रा गाईवस्तुहरूका निम्ति खोर र हाम्रा परिवारहरूका निम्ति सहर बनाउन अनुमति दिनुहोस् ।
17 However, we ourselves will be ready and armed to go with Israel's army until we have led them into their place. But our families will live in the fortified cities because of the other people who still live in this land.
तथापि, हामी आफैचाहिँ तिनीहरूलाई आ-आफ्नो ठाउँमा नलगेसम्म हामी हतियारसहित इस्राएलको फौजसँग जान्छौँ । तर अझै यस भूमिमा रहेका अन्य मानिसहरूका कारण हाम्रा परिवारहरूचाहिँ किल्लाबन्दी गरिएका सहरहरूमा बस्ने छन् ।
18 We will not return to our houses until every one of the people of Israel has obtained his inheritance.
इस्राएलका हरेक मानिसले आ-आफ्नो उत्तराधिकर नपाएसम्म हामी हाम्रो घरतिर फर्कने छैनौँ ।
19 We will not inherit the land with them on the other side of the Jordan, because our inheritance is here on the east side of the Jordan.”
हामीले तिनीहरूसँग यर्दन पारिपट्टि अंश पाउनेछै नौँ, किनभने हाम्रो अंश यहीँ यर्दनको पूर्वीपट्टि नै छ ।
20 So Moses replied to them, “If you do what you say, if you arm yourselves to go before Yahweh to war,
त्यसैले मोशाले तिनीहरूलाई जवाफ दिए, “यदि तिमीहरूले आफूले भनेबमोजिम गर्छौ, तिमीहरू हातहतियारसहित परमप्रभुको सामु युद्ध गर्न जान्छौ भने,
21 then every one of your armed men must cross over the Jordan before Yahweh, until he has driven out his enemies from before him
परमप्रभुले उहाँका शत्रुहरूलाई उहाँको सामुबाट नधपाउनुभएसम्म र
22 and the land is subdued before him. Then afterward you may return. You will be guiltless toward Yahweh and toward Israel. This land will be your possession before Yahweh.
उहाँको सामु भूमिलाई कब्जा नगरेसम्म तिमीहरू सबै हातहतियारसहित परमप्रभुको सामु यर्दन पारि तर्नुपर्छ । त्यसपछि तिमीहरू फर्कन सक्छौ । तिमीहरू परमप्रभु र इस्राएलका सामु दोषरहित हुने छौ । यो भूमि परमप्रभुको सामु तिमीहरूको सम्पत्ति हुने छ ।
23 But if you do not do so, look, you will have sinned against Yahweh. Be sure that your sin will find you out.
तर यदि तिमीहरूले यसो गरेनौ भने, हेर, तिमीहरूले परमप्रभु विरुद्ध पाप गरेका हुने छौ । तिमीहरूका पापले अवश्य नै फेला पार्ने छ ।
24 Build cities for your families and pens for your sheep; then do what you have said.”
तिमीहरूका परिवारहरूका निम्ति सहरहरू र भेडाबाख्राहरूका निम्ति खोर बनाओ; तिमीहरूले जे भनेका छौ सो गर ।”
25 The descendants of Gad and Reuben spoke to Moses and said, “Your servants will do as you, our master, commands.
गाद र रूबेनका सन्तानहरूले मोशालाई भने, “तपाईंका दासहरूले हाम्रा मालिकले आज्ञा गरेअनुसार गर्ने छन् ।
26 Our little ones, our wives, our flocks, and all our livestock will stay there in the cities of Gilead.
हाम्रा बालबच्चाहरू, हाम्रा पत्नीहरू, हाम्रा गाईवस्तुहरू र हाम्रा सबै भेडाबाख्रा गिलादका सहरहरूमा रहने छन् ।
27 However, we, your servants, will cross over before Yahweh to battle, every man who is armed for war, as you, our master, say.”
तथापि, हामी तपाईंका दासहरू हाम्रा मालिकले भन्नुभएबमोजिम नै लडाइँको निम्त हातहतियारसहित परमप्रभुको सामु पारि जाने छन् ।”
28 So Moses gave instructions concerning them to Eleazar the priest, to Joshua son of Nun, and to the leaders of the ancestor's clans in the tribes of the people of Israel.
त्यसैले मोशाले तिनीहरूको बारेमा पुजारी एलाजार, नूनका छोरा यहोशू र इस्राएलका मानिसहरूका कुल-कुलका अगुवाहरूलाई निर्देशन दिए ।
29 Moses said to them, “If the descendants of Gad and Reuben cross over the Jordan with you, every man who is armed to battle before Yahweh, and if the land is subdued before you, then you will give them the land of Gilead as a possession.
मोशाले तिनीहरूलाई भने, “गाद र रूबेनका सन्तानहरू परमप्रभुको सामु लड्न हातहतियारसहित तिमीहरूसँगै यर्दन पारि जाने छन्, र यदि भूमिलाई तिमीहरूको सामु कब्जा गरियो भने, तिमीहरूले तिनीहरूलाई गिलादको भूमि अंशको रूपमा दिनू ।
30 But if they do not cross over with you armed, then they will acquire their possessions among you in the land of Canaan.”
तर यदि तिनीहरू तिमीहरूसँगै हातहतियारसहित पारि गएनन् भने, तिनीहरूले पनि कनानको मुलुकमा नै तिमीहरूमाझ अंश प्राप्त गर्ने छन् ।”
31 So the descendants of Gad and Reuben answered and said, “As Yahweh has said to us, your servants, this is what we will do.
त्यसैले गाद र रूबेनका सन्तानहरूले जवाफ दिए, “परमप्रभुले हामी तपाईंका दासहरूलाई भन्नुभएबमोजिम हामीले यसै गर्ने छौँ ।
32 We will cross over armed before Yahweh into the land of Canaan, but our possessed inheritance will remain with us on this side of the Jordan.”
हामी परमप्रभुको सामु हातहतियारसहित कनानको भूमिमा पारि जानेछौँ, तर हाम्रो स्वामित्वमा रहेको अंश यर्दन वारि हामीसँग रहने छ ।”
33 So to the descendants of Gad and Reuben, and also to the half tribe of Manasseh son of Joseph, Moses gave the kingdom of Sihon, king of the Amorites, and of Og, king of Bashan. He gave to them the land, and distributed to them all its cities with their borders, the cities of the land around them.
त्यसैले मोशाले एमोरी राजा सीहोन र बाशानका राजा ओगको राज्य गाद र रूबेनका सन्तानहरूसाथै योसेफका छोरा मनश्शेका आधा कुललाई दिए । तिनले त्यो भूमि तिनीहरूलाई दिए र यसका सिमानासहित सबै सहरहरू, त्यस वरिपरिका भूमिमा भएका सहरहरू भाग लगाए ।
34 The descendants of Gad rebuilt Dibon, Ataroth, Aroer,
गादका सन्तानहरूले दीबोन, अतारोत, अरोएर,
35 Atroth Shophan, Jazer, Jogbehah,
अत्रोत-शोपान, याजेर, योगबहा,
36 Beth Nimrah, and Beth Haran as fortified cities with pens for sheep.
बेथ-निम्रा, बेथ-हारान सहरहरूलाई पर्खालले घेरेर भेडाबाख्राहरूका निम्ति खोरहरू बनाए ।
37 The descendants of Reuben rebuilt Heshbon, Elealeh, Kiriathaim,
रूबेनका सन्तानहरूले हेश्बोन, एलाले, किर्यातैयम,
38 Nebo, Baal Meon—their names were later changed, and Sibmah. They gave other names to the cities that they rebuilt.
नेबो, बालमोन, यिनीहरूका नाउँ पछि फेरियो र शिब्मा बनाए । तिनीहरूले पुनर्निर्माण गरेका सहरहरू नाउँ अरू नै राखे ।
39 The descendants of Machir son of Manasseh went to Gilead and took it away from the Amorites who were in it.
मनश्शेका छोरा माकीरका सन्तानहरू गिलादमा गए र त्यहाँ बसोबास गर्ने एमोरीहरूबाट यसलाई कब्जा गरे ।
40 Then Moses gave Gilead to Machir son of Manasseh, and his people settled there.
त्यसपछि मोशाले मनश्शेका छोरा माकीरलाई गिलाद दिए, र तिनका मानिसहरू त्यहाँ बसोबास गरे ।
41 Jair son of Manasseh went and captured its towns and called them Havvoth Jair.
मनश्शेका छोरा याईर गए र यसका नगरहरू कब्जा गरे र तिनीहरूको नाउँ हब्बात-याईर राखे ।
42 Nobah went and captured Kenath and its villages, and he called it Nobah, after his own name.
नोबाह गए र केनात र यसका गाउँहरू कब्जा गरे अनि तिनले यसको नाउँ आफ्नै नाउँमा नोबह राखे ।
