1 Samuel 5
1 And the Philistines took the ark of God, and brought it from Eben-ezer to Ashdod.
यति बेला पलिश्तीहरूले परमेश्वरको सन्दुक कब्जा गरेका, र तिनीहरूले त्यो एबेन-एजेरबाट अश्दोदमा ल्याएका थिए ।
2 When the Philistines took the ark of God, they brought it into the house of Dagon, and set it by Dagon.
पलिश्तीहरूले परमेश्वरको सन्दुक लगे, दागोनको मन्दिरमा त्यो ल्याए र दागोनको नजिकै राखे ।
3 And when they of Ashdod arose early on the morrow, behold, Dagon [had] fallen upon his face to the earth before the ark of the LORD. And they took Dagon, and set him in his place again.
जब अश्दोदका मानिसहरू अर्को दिन बिहान सबेरै उठे, हेर, दागोन त परमप्रभुको सन्दुकको सामु घोप्टो परेर ढलेको थियो । त्यसैले तिनीहरूले दागोनलाई उठाए र त्यसलाई आफ्नै स्थानमा खडा गरे ।
4 And when they arose early on the morrow morning, behold, Dagon had fallen upon his face to the ground before the ark of the LORD: and the head of Dagon and both the palms of his hands [were] cut off upon the threshhold; only [the stump of] Dagon was left to him.
तर जब तिनीहरू अर्को बिहान सबेरै उठे, हेर, दागोन परमप्रभुको सन्दुकको सामु घोप्टो परेर ढलेको थियो । दागोनको शिर र दुवै हातहरू टुक्रिएर ढोकामा अलपत्र थियो । दागोनको जिउ मात्र बाँकी रहेको थियो ।
5 Therefore neither the priests of Dagon, nor any that come into Dagon's house, tread on the threshhold of Dagon in Ashdod to this day.
यसैकारण आज पनि दागोनको भवनमा आउने दागोनका पुजारीहरू र कसैले पनि अश्दोदको दागोनको ढोकामा टेक्दैनन् ।
6 But the hand of the LORD was heavy upon them of Ashdod, and he destroyed them, and smote them with emerods, [even] Ashdod, and its borders.
अश्दोदका मानिसहरूमाथि परमप्रभुको हात भारी भयो । उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई विनाश पार्नुभयो, अनि अश्दोद र त्यसको वरिपरि क्षेत्रहरूमा गिर्खाको रूढीले प्रहार गर्नुभयो ।
7 And when the men of Ashdod saw that [it was] so, they said, The ark of the God of Israel shall not abide with us: for his hand is severe upon us, and upon Dagon our god.
जे भइरहेको थियो त्यो कुरा जब अश्दोदका मानिसहरूले थाहा पाए, तब तिनीहरूले भने, “इस्राएलका परमेश्वरको सन्दुक हामीसँग रहनु हुँदैन, किनभने हामी र हाम्रो देवता दागोनको विरुद्धमा उहाँको हात भारी भएको छ ।”
8 They sent therefore, and gathered all the lords of the Philistines to them, and said, What shall we do with the ark of the God of Israel? And they answered, Let the ark of the God of Israel be carried about to Gath. And they carried the ark of the God of Israel [thither].
त्यसैले तिनीहरूले बोलाउन पठाए र पलिश्तीहरूका सबै शासकहरूलाई एकसाथ भेला गरे । तिनीहरूले उनीहरूलाई भने, “इस्राएलका परमेश्वरको सन्दुकलाई हामीले के गर्नुपर्छ?” तिनीहरूले जवाफ दिए, “इस्राएलका परमेश्वरको सन्दुकलाई गातमा नै ल्याइयोस् ।” त्यसैले तिनीहरूले इस्राएलका परमेश्वरको सन्दुकलाई बोकेर त्यहाँ ल्याए ।
9 And it was [so], that after they had carried it thither, the hand of the LORD was against the city with a very great destruction: and he smote the men of the city both small and great, and they had emerods in their secret parts.
तर तिनीहरूले त्यो वरिपरि ल्याएपछि, परमप्रभुको हात त्यो सहरको विरुद्धमा परेर ठुलो गोलमाल गोलमाल भयो । उहाँले सहरका साना र ठुला सबै मानिसहरूलाई प्रहार गर्नुभयो । अनि तिनीहरूमा गिर्खाको रूढी फैलियो ।
10 Therefore they sent the ark of God to Ekron. And it came to pass as the ark of God came to Ekron, that the Ekronites cried out, saying, They have brought about the ark of the God of Israel to us, to slay us and our people.
त्यसैले तिनीहरूले परमेश्वरको सन्दुकलाई एक्रोनमा पठाए । तर परमेश्वरको सन्दुक एक्रोनमा आउने बित्तिकै, एक्रोनीहरूले यसो भन्दै कराए, “तिनीहरूले हामी र हाम्रा मानिसहरूलाई मार्नलाई इस्राएलका परमेश्वरको सन्दुक हामीकहाँ ल्याएका छन् ।”
11 So they sent and convened all the lords of the Philistines, and said, Send away the ark of the God of Israel, and let it go again to its own place, that it slay us not, and our people: for there was a deadly destruction throughout all the city; the hand of God was very heavy there.
त्यसैले तिनीहरूले पलिश्तीहरूका सबै शासकहरूलाई बोलाए र भेला गरे । तिनीहरूले उनीहरूलाई भने, “इस्राएलका परमेश्वरको सन्दुकलाई पठाइदिनुहोस्, र यो आफ्नै ठाउँतिर फर्कोस्, ताकि त्यसले हामी र हाम्रा मानिसहरूलाई नमारोस् ।” किनकि सहरभरि भयङ्कर मृत्युको त्रास फैलिएको थियो । त्यहाँ परमेश्वरको हात धेरै भारी पर्यो ।
12 And the men that died not, were smitten with the emerods: and the cry of the city went up to heaven.
नमरेका मानिसहरूमा गिर्खाको रूढी आइपर्यो र सहरको क्रन्दन आकाशसम्मै पुग्यो ।
