2 Samuel 4
1 When Saul’s son heard that Abner was dead in Hebron, his hands became feeble, and all the Israelites were troubled.
जब शाऊलका छोरा ईश्बोशेतले हेब्रोनमा अबनेरको मृत्यु भयो भनी सुने, तब तिनको हातहरू कमजोर भए र सारा इस्राएल पीडामा पर्यो ।
2 Saul’s son had two men who were captains of raiding bands. The name of one was Baanah and the name of the other Rechab, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, of the children of Benjamin (for Beeroth also is considered a part of Benjamin;
शाऊलका छोराका दुई जना मानिस थिए जो सिपाहरूका समूहहरूका कप्तानहरू थिए । एक जनाको नाउँ बानाह र अर्काको नाउँ रेकाब थियो, जो बेन्यामीनको मानिस बेरोती रिम्मोनका छोराहरू थिए (किनभने बेरोतलाई बेन्यामीनको हिस्सा ठानिन्छ,
3 and the Beerothites fled to Gittaim, and have lived as foreigners there until today).
र बेरोतीहरू गित्तैममा भागेर गए र आजसम्म पनि तिनीहरू त्यहीं बसिरहेका छन् ।)
4 Now Jonathan, Saul’s son, had a son who was lame in his feet. He was five years old when the news came about Saul and Jonathan out of Jezreel; and his nurse picked him up and fled. As she hurried to flee, he fell and became lame. His name was Mephibosheth.
शाऊलका छोरा जोनातनका एक जना छोरा थिए जसको खुट्टो लङ्गडो थियो । यिजरेलबाट शाऊल र जोनाथनको खबर आउँदा तिनी पाँच वर्षका थिए । भाग्नलाई तिनको धाईले तिनलाई बोकिन् । तर तिनी दौडँदै गर्दा, जोनाथनका छोरा खसे र लङ्गडो भए । तिनको नाउँ मेपीबोशेत थियो ।
5 The sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, Rechab and Baanah, went out and came at about the heat of the day to the house of Ishbosheth as he took his rest at noon.
त्यसैले बेरोती रिम्मोनका छोराहरू रेकाब र बानाह दिनको चर्को घाममा ईश्बोशेतको घरतिर जान हिंडेर मध्यन्हमा आराम गरिरहँदा तिनको घरमा पुगे ।
6 They came there into the middle of the house as though they would have fetched wheat, and they struck him in the body; and Rechab and Baanah his brother escaped.
ढोकाको स्त्री पाले गहूँ ओसार्दै गर्दा मस्त निदाएकी थिइन् र रेकाब र बानाह बिस्तार हिंडे र तिनलाई पार गरेर गए ।
7 Now when they came into the house as he lay on his bed in his bedroom, they struck him, killed him, beheaded him, and took his head, and went by the way of the Arabah all night.
यसरी तिनीहरू घरभित्र पसेपछि, तिनी आफ्नो कोठाको ओछ्यानमा पल्टिरहेको बेला तिनीहरूले तिनलाई आक्रमण गरे र तिनलाई मारे । त्यसपछि तिनीहरूले तिनको टाउको काटे र बोकेर रातभरि अराबातिर जाने बाटो हिंडे ।
8 They brought the head of Ishbosheth to David to Hebron, and said to the king, “Behold, the head of Ishbosheth, the son of Saul, your enemy, who sought your life! The LORD has avenged my lord the king today of Saul and of his offspring.”
तिनीहरूले ईश्बोशेतको टाउको हेब्रोनमा दाऊदकहाँ ल्याए र तिनीहरूले राजालाई भने, “हे्र्नुहोस्, यो तपाईंको जीवन लिन खोज्ने तपाईंको शत्रु शाऊलका छोरा ईश्बोशेतको टाउको हो । आज परमप्रभुले शाऊल र तिनका सन्तानहरूको विरुद्धमा हाम्रो मालिक राजाको बद्ला लिनुभएको छ ।”
9 David answered Rechab and Baanah his brother, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, and said to them, “As the LORD lives, who has redeemed my soul out of all adversity,
दाऊदले बेरोती रिम्मोनका छोराहरू रेकाब र बानाहलाई जावफ दिए । तिनले तिनीहरूलाई भने, “जस्तो परमप्रभु जीवित हुनुहुन्छ, जसले मेरो जीवन हरेक कष्टबाट बचाउनुभयो,
10 when someone told me, ‘Behold, Saul is dead,’ thinking that he brought good news, I seized him and killed him in Ziklag, which was the reward I gave him for his news.
जब कसैले मलाई त्यसले शुभखबर ल्याउँदैछ भन्ने ठानी 'हेर्नुहोस्, शाऊल मरेको छ,' भन्यो, मैले त्यसलाई समातें र सिक्लगमा मारें । त्यसको खबरको निम्ति मैले त्यसलाई त्यो इनाम दिएँ ।
11 How much more, when wicked men have slain a righteous person in his own house on his bed, should I not now require his blood from your hand, and rid the earth of you?”
झन दुष्ट मानिसहरूले एक जना निर्दोष व्यक्तिलाई आफ्नो घरमा आफ्नै ओछ्यानमा मार्दा, के मैले तिमीहरूको हातबाट त्यसको रगतको बदला लिएर तिमीहरूलाई पृथ्वीबाट नहटाउँ?”
12 David commanded his young men, and they killed them, cut off their hands and their feet, and hanged them up beside the pool in Hebron. But they took the head of Ishbosheth and buried it in Abner’s grave in Hebron.
त्यसपछि दाऊदले जवान मानिसहरूलाई हुकुम गरे र उनीहरूले तिनीहरूलाई मारे अनि तिनीहरूका हातहरू र खुट्टाहरू काटेर हेब्रोनको तलाउनेर झुण्ड्याए । तर तिनीहरू ईश्बोशेतको टाउकोलाई लिए र त्यसलाई हेब्रोनमा अबनेरको चिहानमा गाडे ।
