Judges 2
1 And an angel of the LORD came up from Gilgal to Bochim, and said, I made you to depart from Egypt, and have brought you to the land which I swore to your fathers; and I said, I will never break my covenant with you.
परमप्रभुका दूत गिलगालबाट माथि बोकीममा गए, र भने, “मैले तिमीहरूलाई मिश्रदेशबाट ल्याएँ, र तिमीहरूका पुर्खाहरूलाई दिन्छु भनी मैले प्रतिज्ञा गरेको देशमा ल्याएँ । मैले भनें, ‘तिमीहरूसँगको मेरो करारलाई म कहिल्यै तोड्नेछैनँ ।
2 And ye shall make no league with the inhabitants of this land; ye shall throw down their altars: but ye have not obeyed my voice: why have ye done this?
यस देशमा बस्नेहरूसँग तिमीहरूले कुनै करार गर्नुहुँदैन । तिमीहरूले तिनीहरूका वेदीहरू भत्कानुपर्छ ।’ तर तिमीहरूले मेरो आज्ञा पालन गरेका छैनौ । तिमीहरूले यो के गरेका छौ?
3 Wherefore I also said, I will not drive them out from before you; but they shall be [as thorns] in your sides, and their gods shall be a snare to you.
यसैले म अब भन्छु, ‘तिमीहरूको अगिबाट म कनानीहरूलाई बाहिर निकाल्नेछैनँ, तर तिनीहरू तिमीहरूका वरिपरिका काँढाहरू हुनेछन्, र तिनीहरूका देवताहरू तिमीहरूका निम्ति पासो बन्नेछन् ।’”
4 And it came to pass, when the angel of the LORD spoke these words to all the children of Israel, that the people lifted up their voice, and wept.
जब परमप्रभुका दूतले यी वचन इस्राएलका सबै मानिसलाई भने, तब मानिसहरू चिच्चाए र रोए ।
5 And they called the name of that place Bochim: and they sacrificed there to the LORD.
तिनीहरूले त्यस ठाउँलाई बोकीम नाउँ दिए । त्यहाँ तिनीहरूले परमप्रभुको निम्ति बलिदान चढाए ।
6 And when Joshua had let the people go, the children of Israel went every man to his inheritance to possess the land.
अब यहोशूले मानिसहरूलाई आ-आफ्नो बाटोमा पठाएका थिए, इस्राएलका मानिसहरू आ-आफ्नो जमिनमाथि अधिकार गर्न ती ठाउँहरूमा गए ।
7 And the people served the LORD all the days of Joshua, and all the days of the elders that outlived Joshua, who had seen all the great works of the LORD, that he did for Israel.
यहोशू र तिनीपछि पनि बाँचेका धर्म-गुरुहरू जसले परमप्रभुले इस्राएलको निम्ति गर्नुभएका सबै महान् कामलाई देखेका थिए, तिनीहरूले आफ्नो जीवनकालभरि नै परमप्रभुको सेवा गरे ।
8 And Joshua the son of Nun, the servant of the LORD, died, [being] a hundred and ten years old.
परमप्रभुका सेवक नूनका छोरा यहोशूको ११० वर्षको उमेरमा मृत्यु भयो ।
9 And they buried him in the border of his inheritance in Timnath-heres, in the mount of Ephraim, on the north side of the hill Gaash.
तिनीहरूले उनलाई गाश पर्वतको उत्तरपट्टि, एफ्राइमको पहाडी देश, तिम्नथ-हेरेसमा उनको अधिकारमा दिइएको जमिनको सिमानाभित्र गाडे ।
10 And also all that generation were gathered to their fathers: and there arose another generation after them, which knew not the LORD, nor yet the works which he had done for Israel.
त्यस पुस्ताका सबै जना आफ्ना पुर्खाहरूसँगै मिले । तिनीहरू पछि परमप्रभु र उहाँले इस्राएलको निम्ति गर्नुभएका कामको बारेमा जानकारी नभएका अर्को पुस्ता खडा भयो ।
11 And the children of Israel did evil in the sight of the LORD, and served Baalim:
इस्राएलका मानिसहरूले परमप्रभुको दृष्टिमा जे कुरा दुष्ट थियो त्यही गरे र तिनीहरूले बाल देवताको सेवा गरे ।
12 And they forsook the LORD God of their fathers, who brought them out of the land of Egypt, and followed other gods, of the gods of the people that [were] around them, and bowed themselves to them, and provoked the LORD to anger.
तिनीहरूलाई मिश्रदेशबाट बाहिर निकालेर ल्याउनुहुने तिनीहरूका पुर्खाहरूका परमप्रभु परमेश्वरसँग तिनीहरूले सम्बन्ध तोडे । तिनीहरूले अन्य देवताहरू, तिनीहरूका वरिपरि भएका मानिसहरूका देवताहरूलाई पछ्याए, र तिनीहरूलाई उनीहरूलाई ढोगे । तिनीहरूले परमप्रभुलाई क्रोधित बनाए किनभने,
13 And they forsook the LORD, and served Baal and Ashtaroth.
तिनीहरू परमप्रभुबाट टाढा भए, र बाल तथा अश्तोरेत देवताको पुजा गरे ।
14 And the anger of the LORD was hot against Israel, and he delivered them into the hands of spoilers that spoiled them, and he sold them into the hands of their enemies around, so that they could not any longer stand before their enemies.
परमप्रभुको क्रोध इस्राएलको विरुद्धमा दन्कियो, र उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई तिनीहरूका धन-सम्पत्ति लुट्ने लुटेराहरूकहाँ सुम्पनुभयो । उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई दासहरूझैं बेचिदिनुभयो र तिनीहरू वरिपरिबाट शत्रुहरूले घेरिए, यसरी तिनीहरूले आफ्ना शत्रुहरूबाट आफैलाई बचाउन सकेनन् ।
15 Whithersoever they went out, the hand of the LORD was against them for evil, as the LORD had said, and as the LORD had sworn to them: and they were greatly distressed.
जहाँ-जहाँ इस्राएल युद्धको निम्ति गए, परमप्रभुले तिनीहरूलाई प्रतिज्ञा गर्नुभएझैँ तिनीहरूलाई परास्त गर्नको निम्ति उहाँको हात तिनीहरूको विरुद्ध थियो, र तिनीहरू अत्यन्तै सकसमा परे ।
16 Nevertheless the LORD raised up judges, who delivered them out of the hand of those that spoiled them.
त्यसपछि परमप्रभुले न्यायकर्ताहरू खडा गर्नुभयो, जसले तिनीहरूका धन-सम्पत्ति लुट्नेहरूका हातबाट तिनीहरूलाई बचाए ।
17 And yet they would not hearken to their judges, but they went astray after other gods, and bowed themselves to them: they turned quickly out of the way which their fathers walked in, obeying the commandments of the LORD; [but] they did not so.
तापनि तिनीहरूले आफ्ना न्यायकर्ताहरूका कुरा सुनेनन् । तिनीहरू परमप्रभुप्रति विश्वासहीन भए र आफूलाई वेश्याहरूझैं अन्य देवताहरूकहाँ सुम्पे र तिनीहरूको पुजा गरे । परमप्रभुका आज्ञाहरू पालन गर्ने तिनीहरूका पुर्खाहरूले जिएका मार्गबाट तिनीहरू चाँडै नै तर्केर गए र आफ्ना पुर्खाहरूले झैं तिनीहरूले गरेनन् ।
18 And when the LORD raised up judges for them, then the LORD was with the judge, and delivered them out of the hand of their enemies all the days of the judge: (for the LORD repented because of their groanings by reason of them that oppressed them and burdened them.)
जब परमप्रभुले तिनीहरूका निम्ति न्यायकर्ताहरू खडा गर्नुभयो, ती न्यायकर्ताहरू बाँचुन्जेल परमप्रभुले तिनीहरूलाई सहायता गर्नुभयो र तिनीहरूका शत्रुहरूका हातबाट तिनीहरूलाई बचाउनुभयो । तिनीहरूलाई अत्याचार गर्ने र कष्ट दिनेहरूका कारणले तिनीहरूले चित्कार गर्दा परमप्रभुले तिनीहरूमाथि दया देखाउनुभयो ।
19 And it came to pass, when the judge was dead, [that] they returned, and corrupted [themselves] more than their fathers, in following other gods to serve them, and to bow down to them; they ceased not from their own doings, nor from their stubborn way.
तर न्यायकर्ता मरेपछि, तिनीहरू खराब बाटोतर्फ लाग्थे र तिनीहरूका पुर्खाहरूले गरेकाभन्दा पनि भ्रष्ट कामहरू गर्थे । तिनीहरू अन्य देवताहरूको सेवा गर्न र तिनीहरूको पुजा गर्न तिनीहरूको पछि लाग्थे । तिनीहरूले आफ्ना कुनै पनि दुष्ट काम वा तिनीहरूका हठी चालहरूलाई त्याग्न इन्कार गरे ।
20 And the anger of the LORD was hot against Israel; and he said, Because that this people hath transgressed my covenant which I commanded their fathers, and have not hearkened to my voice;
परमप्रभुको क्रोध इस्राएलको विरुद्धमा दन्कियो । उहाँले भन्नुभयो, “यस जातिले मैले तिनीहरूका पुर्खालाई दिएको मेरा करारका शर्तहरूलाई तोडेका हुनाले र तिनीहरूले मेरा आज्ञा पालन नगरेका हुनाले,
21 I also will not henceforth drive out from before them any of the nations which Joshua left when he died:
यहोशू मृत्यु हुँदा, त्यसले बाँकी छोडेका सबै जातिलाई म अबदेखि उसो तिनीहरूका सामुबाट धपाउनेछैनँ ।
22 That through them I may prove Israel, whether they will keep the way of the LORD to walk in it, as their fathers kept [it], or not.
इस्राएलका मानिसहरू आफ्ना पुर्खाहरूले झै परमप्रभुको मार्गलाई पछ्याएर ती मार्गमा हिंड्नेछन् या छैनन् भनेर जाँच्नको निम्ति म यसो गर्नेछु ।”
23 Therefore the LORD left those nations, without driving them out speedily, neither did he deliver them into the hand of Joshua.
यसकारण परमप्रभुले ती जातिहरूलाई छोडिदिनुभयो र तिनीहरूलाई तुरुन्तै धपाउनुभएन र यहोशूको हातमा सुम्पनुभएन ।
