1 Samuel 30
1 When David and his men had come to Ziklag on the third day, the Amalekites had made a raid on the South and on Ziklag, and had struck Ziklag and burnt it with fire,
जब दाऊद र तिनका मानिसहरू तेस्रो दिनमा सिक्लगमा आए, अमालेकीहरूले नेगेव र सिक्लगलाई लूटेका थिए । तिनीहरूले सिग्लगलाई आक्रमण गरे र त्यसलाई आगोले लगाए,
2 and had taken captive the women and all who were in it, both small and great. They didn’t kill any, but carried them off and went their way.
र यसमा भएका स्त्रीहरू र साना-ठुला हरेकलाई कब्जा गरे । तिनीहरूले कसैलाई पनि मारेनन्, तर तिनीहरू आफ्नो बाटो जाँदा तिनीहरूलाई लिएर गए ।
3 When David and his men came to the city, behold, it was burnt with fire; and their wives, their sons, and their daughters were taken captive.
जब दाऊद र तिनका मानिसहरू त्यो सहरमा आए, यसलाई जलाइएको थियो र तिनीहरूका पत्नीहरू, छोराहरू र छोरीहरूलाई कैदीको रूपमा लगिएका थियो ।
4 Then David and the people who were with him lifted up their voice and wept until they had no more power to weep.
जब दाऊद र तिनीसँग भएका मानिसहरू डाँको छोडेर तिनीहरूमा रुने शक्ति नै नभएसम्म रोए ।
5 David’s two wives were taken captive, Ahinoam the Jezreelitess, and Abigail the wife of Nabal the Carmelite.
दाऊदका दुवै पत्नीहरू यिजरेली अहीनोम र कार्मेली नाबालकी पत्नी अबीगेललाई कैदीको रूपमा लगिएका थियो ।
6 David was greatly distressed, for the people spoke of stoning him, because the souls of all the people were grieved, every man for his sons and for his daughters; but David strengthened himself in the LORD his God.
दाऊद साह्रै व्याकु भए, किनभने मानिसहरूले तिनलाई ढुङ्गाले हान्ने कुरा गरिरहेका थिए, किनकि सबै मानिसहरूको मन आ-आफ्नो छोराहरू र छोरीहरूका निम्ति तितो भएको थियो । तर दाऊदले परमप्रभु परमेश्वरमा आफूलाई शक्तिशाली बनाए ।
7 David said to Abiathar the priest, the son of Ahimelech, “Please bring the ephod here to me.” Abiathar brought the ephod to David.
दाऊदले पुजारी अहीमेलेकका छोरा अबीयाथारलाई भने, “बिन्ती छ, यहाँ मकहाँ एपोद ल्याऊ ।” अबीयाथारले दाऊदकहाँ एपोद ल्याए ।
8 David enquired of the LORD, saying, “If I pursue after this troop, will I overtake them?” He answered him, “Pursue, for you will surely overtake them, and will without fail recover all.”
दाऊदले निर्देशनको निम्ति परमप्रभुसँग यसरी प्रार्थना गरे, “के मैले यो फौजको पिछा गरे भने, म तिनीहरूलाई भेट्टाउन सक्छु?” परमप्रभुले तिनलाई जवाफ दिनुभयो, “खेदेर जा, किनकि तैंले तिनीहरूलाई निश्चय नै भेट्टाउनेछस् र तैंले निश्चय नै सबै थोक छुटाउनेछस् ।”
9 So David went, he and the six hundred men who were with him, and came to the brook Besor, where those who were left behind stayed.
त्यसैले दाऊद, आफू र आफूसँग भएका छ सय जना मानिस लिएर गए । तिनीहरू बसोरको खोल्सामा आए, जहाँ छोडिएकाहरू बसेका थिए ।
10 But David pursued, he and four hundred men; for two hundred stayed behind, who were so faint that they couldn’t go over the brook Besor.
तर दाऊदले आफू र आफूसँग भएका चार सय जान मानिसले पिछा गरिरहे, किनकि दुई सय जना पछाडी नै बसे, जो यति धेरै थाकेका थिए, कि तिनीहरू बसोर खोल्सा पारि जान सकेनन् ।
11 They found an Egyptian in the field, and brought him to David, and gave him bread, and he ate; and they gave him water to drink.
तिनीहरूले एक जना मिश्रीलाई खेतमा भेट्टाए र उसलाई दाऊदकहाँ ल्याए । तिनीहरूले उसलाई रोटी दिए र उसले खायो । तिनीहरूले उसलाई पानी पिउन दिए ।
12 They gave him a piece of a cake of figs and two clusters of raisins. When he had eaten, his spirit came again to him; for he had eaten no bread, and drank no water for three days and three nights.
र तिनीहरूले उसलाई एक डल्लो नेभारा र दुई झुप्पा किशमिश दिए । जब उसले ती खाइसक्यो, उसले फेरि शक्ति पायो, किनकि उसले तिन दिन र तिन रातदेखि रोटी खाएको वा पानी पिएको थिएन ।
13 David asked him, “To whom do you belong? Where are you from?” He said, “I am a young man of Egypt, servant to an Amalekite; and my master left me, because three days ago I got sick.
दाऊदले उसलाई सोधे, “तिमी को हौ? तिमी कहाँबाट आएका हौ?” उसले भन्यो, “म मिश्रको एक जना जवान मानिस, अमालेकीको सेवक हुँ । मेरो मालिकले मलाई छोडे, किनभने तिन दिनअघि म बिरामी भएँ ।
14 We made a raid on the South of the Cherethites, and on that which belongs to Judah, and on the South of Caleb; and we burnt Ziklag with fire.”
हामीले करेतीहरूको नेगेव, यहूदाको भाग, कालेबको नेगेवलाई लूट्यौं र सिग्लगमा आगो लगायौं ।”
15 David said to him, “Will you bring me down to this troop?” He said, “Swear to me by God that you will not kill me and not deliver me up into the hands of my master, and I will bring you down to this troop.”
दाऊदले उसलाई भने, “के तिमीले मलाई यो लूटपाट गर्ने समूहकहाँ लैजान सक्छौ?” त्यो मिश्रीले भने, “तपाईंले मलाई मार्नुहुन्न वा मलाई मेरो मालिकको हातमा सुम्पनुहुन्न भनी परमेश्वरको नाउँमा शपथ खानुहोस् र म तपाईंलाई यो लूटपाट गर्ने समूहकहाँ लानेछु ।”
16 When he had brought him down, behold, they were spread around over all the ground, eating, drinking, and dancing, because of all the great plunder that they had taken out of the land of the Philistines, and out of the land of Judah.
जब त्यो मिश्रीले दाऊदलाई तल ल्याए, तब लूटपाट गर्नेहरू मैदानभरि छरिएर तिनीहरूले पलिश्तीहरूको देश र यहूदाको देशबाट लिएका सबै लूटका मालको कारणले खाँदै, पिउँदै र नाच्दै थिए ।
17 David struck them from the twilight even to the evening of the next day. Not a man of them escaped from there, except four hundred young men who rode on camels and fled.
दाऊदले तिनीहरूलाई बिहान सबैरैदेखि अर्को दिनको साँझसम्म नै तिनीहरूलाई आक्रमण गरे । ऊँटमा चढेर भागेका चार सय जना जवान मानिसबाहेक एक जना पनि उम्केनन् ।
18 David recovered all that the Amalekites had taken, and David rescued his two wives.
अमालेकीहरूले लगेका सबै थोक दाऊदले पुनः प्राप्त गरे । अनि दाऊदले आफ्नी दुई जना पत्नीलाई पनि छुटाए ।
19 There was nothing lacking to them, neither small nor great, neither sons nor daughters, neither plunder, nor anything that they had taken. David brought them all back.
कुनै पनि कुरा पनि गुमेनन्, न साना न त ठुला, न छोराहरू न त छोरीहरू, न त लूटपाट गर्नेहरूले कब्जा गरेका कुनै कुरा नै गुम्यो । दाऊदले हरेक कुरा फिर्ता ल्याए ।
20 David took all the flocks and the herds, which they drove before those other livestock, and said, “This is David’s plunder.”
दाऊदले सबै बेडाबाख्रा र गाईवस्तु ल्याए, जसलाई मानिसहरूले अरू गाइवस्तुको अगि धपाए । तिनीहरूले भने, “यो दाऊदको लूटको माल हो ।”
21 David came to the two hundred men, who were so faint that they could not follow David, whom also they had made to stay at the brook Besor; and they went out to meet David, and to meet the people who were with him. When David came near to the people, he greeted them.
दाऊदको पछि जानलाई साह्रै कमजोर भएका दुई सय जना मानिसकहाँ तिनी आए, जसलाई अरूले बसोरको खोल्सामा नै बस्न लगाएका थिए । दाऊद र तिनीसँग भएका मानसिहरूलाई भेट्न यी मानिसहरू अगाडि गए । जब दाऊद यी मानिसकहाँ आए, तब तिनले उनीहरूलाई अभिवादन गरे ।
22 Then all the wicked men and worthless fellows of those who went with David answered and said, “Because they didn’t go with us, we will not give them anything of the plunder that we have recovered, except to every man his wife and his children, that he may lead them away and depart.”
तब दाऊदसँग गएका सबै दुष्ट र वेकामका मानिसले भने, “यी मानिसहरू हामीसँग नगएका हुनाले हामीले फिर्ता ल्याएका कुनै पनि लूटका मालहरू हामी तिनीहरूलाई दिनेछैनौं । हरेक मानिसले आफ्ना पत्नी र छोराछोरी लिन र तिनीहरूलाई लिएर जान सक्छ ।”
23 Then David said, “Do not do so, my brothers, with that which the LORD has given to us, who has preserved us, and delivered the troop that came against us into our hand.
तब दाऊदले भने, “मेरा भाइ हो, परमप्रभुले हामीलाई दिनुभएको कुरामा तिमीहरूले यस्तो व्यवहार गर्नुहुँदैन । उहाँले हाम्रो सुरक्षा गर्नुभएको छ र हाम्रो विरुद्धमा आउने लूटपाट गर्नेहरूलाई हाम्रो हातमा सुम्पनुभएको छ ।
24 Who will listen to you in this matter? For as his share is who goes down to the battle, so shall his share be who stays with the baggage. They shall share alike.”
तिमीहरूको यो कुरा कसले सुन्नेछ? किनभने युद्धमा जानेहरूको हिस्सा जत्ति हुन्छ सामानहरू कुर्नेहरूको हिस्सा पनि त्यत्ति नै हुनेछ । तिनीहरूले बाँड्नेछन् अनि बराबर बाँड्नेछन् ।”
25 It was so from that day forward that he made it a statute and an ordinance for Israel to this day.
त्यस दिनदेखि आजको दिनसम्म यस्तै चलन छ, किनभने दाऊदले यसलाई इस्राएलको निम्ति नियम र आदेश नै बनाए ।
26 When David came to Ziklag, he sent some of the plunder to the elders of Judah, even to his friends, saying, “Behold, a present for you from the plunder of the LORD’s enemies.”
जब दाऊद सिक्लगमा आए, तिनले आफ्ना मित्रहरू अर्थात् यहूदाका धर्म-गुरुहरुलाई केही लूटका मालहरू पठाएर भने, “हेर्नुहोस्, परमप्रभुका शत्रहरूबाट लिइएका लुटका मालबाट तपाईंहरूका निम्ति उपहार यहाँ छ ।”
27 He sent it to those who were in Bethel, to those who were in Ramoth of the South, to those who were in Jattir,
तिनले बेथेलमा भएका, दक्षिणको रामोतमा, यत्तीरमा भएकाहरू,
28 to those who were in Aroer, to those who were in Siphmoth, to those who were in Eshtemoa,
र अरोएरमा भएका, सिपमोतमा भएका, एश्तामिमा भएका धर्म-गुरुहरुलाई केही पठाए ।
29 to those who were in Racal, to those who were in the cities of the Jerahmeelites, to those who were in the cities of the Kenites,
तिनले केही कुरा राकालमा भएका, यरहमेलीहरूका सहरहरूमा भएका, केनीहरूका सहरमा भएका,
30 to those who were in Hormah, to those who were in Borashan, to those who were in Athach,
होर्मामा भएका, बोर-आशानमा भएका, अत्ताकमा भएका,
31 to those who were in Hebron, and to all the places where David himself and his men used to stay.
र हेब्रोनमा भएका र दाऊद आफै र आफ्ना मानिसहरू सधैं जाने गरेका सबै ठाउँतिर पनि केही पठाए ।
