1 Samuel 22
1 David therefore departed from there and escaped to Adullam’s cave. When his brothers and all his father’s house heard it, they went down there to him.
यसैले दाऊद त्यहाँबाट भागे र अदुल्लामको गुफामा गए । जब तिनका दाजुहरू र तिनका बुबाका सबै घरानाले यो सुने, तिनीहरू तिनीकहाँ तल गए ।
2 Everyone who was in distress, everyone who was in debt, and everyone who was discontented gathered themselves to him; and he became captain over them. There were with him about four hundred men.
कष्टमा परेका हरेक, ऋणमा परेका हरेक र असन्तुष्ट हरेक, ती सबै तिनीकहाँ भेला भए । दाऊद तिनीहरूका कप्तान भए । तिनीसँग करिब चार सय जना मानिस थिए ।
3 David went from there to Mizpeh of Moab; and he said to the king of Moab, “Please let my father and my mother come out to you, until I know what God will do for me.”
तब दाऊद त्यहाँबाट मोआबको मिस्पामा गए । तिनले मोआबको राजालाई भने, “कृपया, परमेश्वरले मेरो निम्ति के गर्नुहुन्छ भनी मैले थाहा नपाएसम्म मेरो बुबा र मेरो आमालाई तपाईंकहाँ रहन दिनुहोस् ।”
4 He brought them before the king of Moab; and they lived with him all the time that David was in the stronghold.
तिनले तिनीहरूलाई मोआबको राजासँग छोडे । दाऊद किल्लामा रहँदा तिनका बुबा र आमा पुरा समय तिनीसँगै बसे ।
5 The prophet Gad said to David, “Don’t stay in the stronghold. Depart, and go into the land of Judah.” Then David departed, and came into the forest of Hereth.
तब गाद अगमवक्ताले दाऊदलाई भने, “तपाईंको किल्लामा नबस्नुहोस् । छोडेर यहूदाको देशमा जानुहोस् ।” त्यसैले दाऊद त्यहाँबाट निस्के र हारेतको वनमा गए ।
6 Saul heard that David was discovered, with the men who were with him. Now Saul was sitting in Gibeah, under the tamarisk tree in Ramah, with his spear in his hand, and all his servants were standing around him.
दाऊदलाई तिनीसँग भएका मानिसहरूसहित भेटिए भन्ने कुरा शाऊलले सुने । अहिले शाऊल रामामा भएको झ्याउको रूखमुनि आफ्नो हातमा भाला लिएर बसिरहेका थिए र तिनका सेवकहरू तिनका वरिपरि खडा थिए ।
7 Saul said to his servants who stood around him, “Hear now, you Benjamites! Will the son of Jesse give everyone of you fields and vineyards? Will he make you all captains of thousands and captains of hundreds?
शाऊलले आफ्नो वरिपरि खडा भएका सेवकहरूलाई भने, “हे बेन्यामीनका मानिसहरू हो, सुन! के यिशैका छोराले तिमीहरू हरेकलाई खेत र दाखबारीहरू दिनेछ? के उसले तिमीहरू सबैलाई हजारका कप्तानहरू र सयका कप्तानहरू बनाउनेछ,
8 Is that why all of you have conspired against me, and there is no one who discloses to me when my son makes a treaty with the son of Jesse, and there is none of you who is sorry for me, or discloses to me that my son has stirred up my servant against me, to lie in wait, as it is today?”
जसको बदलामा तिमीहरू मेरो विरुद्धमा षड्यान्त्र गर्दैछौ? मेरो छोराले यिशैका छोरासँग करार गर्दा तिमीहरू कसैले पनि मलाई जानकारी दिएनौ । मेरो निम्ति तिमीहरू कोही पनि दुःखी छैनौ । मेरो छोराले मेरो सेवक दाऊदलाई मेरो विरुद्धमा उक्साएको कुरा तिमीहरू कसैले पनि मलाई जानकारी दिएनौ । आज ऊ लुक्छ र मलाई आक्रमण गर्न मलाई हेरेर बस्छ ।”
9 Then Doeg the Edomite, who stood by the servants of Saul, answered and said, “I saw the son of Jesse coming to Nob, to Ahimelech the son of Ahitub.
तब शाऊलका सेवकहरूसँगै खडा भएका एदोमी दोएगले जवाफ दियो, “यिशैका छोरा नोबमा अहीतूबका छोरा अहीमेलेककहाँ आएको मैले देखें ।
10 He inquired of Yahweh for him, gave him food, and gave him the sword of Goliath the Philistine.”
परमप्रभुबाट उसलाई सहायता मिलोस् भनी तिनले उसको निम्ति प्रार्थना गरे, र तिनले उसलाई खानेकुरा र पलिश्ती गोल्यतको तरवार दिए ।”
11 Then the king sent to call Ahimelech the priest, the son of Ahitub, and all his father’s house, the priests who were in Nob; and they all came to the king.
अनि शाऊलले अहीतूबका छोरा पुजारी अहीमेलेक, र तिनका बुबाको घरानाका सबै, नोबमा भएका पुजारीहरूलाई बोलाउन कसैलाई पठाए । तिनीहरू सबै जना राजाकहाँ आए ।
12 Saul said, “Hear now, you son of Ahitub.” He answered, “Here I am, my lord.”
शाऊलले भने, “अहितूबका छोरा सुन् ।” तिनले जवाफ दिए, “म यहाँ छु मालिक ।”
13 Saul said to him, “Why have you conspired against me, you and the son of Jesse, in that you have given him bread, and a sword, and have inquired of God for him, that he should rise against me, to lie in wait, as it is today?”
शाऊलले तिनलाई भने, “तैंले, तैंले र यिशैका छोराले किन मेरो विरुद्धमा षडयन्त्र रचेको छस्, जसमा तैंले उसलाई रोटी र तरवार दिइस् र परमप्रभुले उसलाई सहायता गर्नुभएको होस् भनी प्रार्थना गरिस्, जसले गर्दा मेरो विरुद्धमा खडा हुनलाई ऊ गुप्तमा लुक्न सकोस्, जस्तो आज उसले गरेको छ?”
14 Then Ahimelech answered the king, and said, “Who among all your servants is so faithful as David, who is the king’s son-in-law, captain of your body guard, and honored in your house?
अनि अहीमेलकले राजालाई जवाफ दिए र भने, “तपाईंका सेवकहरूमध्ये दाऊदजस्तो विश्वासयोग्य, जो राजाका ज्वाइँ, तपाईंको अङ्गरक्षकका कप्तान र तपाईंको घरानामा आदर गरिएको अरू को छ?
15 Have I today begun to inquire of God for him? Be it far from me! Don’t let the king impute anything to his servant, nor to all the house of my father; for your servant knew nothing of all this, less or more.”
तिनलाई सहायता मिलोस् भनी मैले परमेश्वरमा प्रार्थना गरेको के आझ नै पहिलो पटक हो र? यो मबाट दुर होस्! राजाले आफ्नो सेवक वा मेरो बुबाको सारा घरानालाई कुनै दोष नलगाउनुहोला । किनकि तपाईंको सेवकलाई यी कुरा केही पनि थाहा छैन ।”
16 The king said, “You shall surely die, Ahimelech, you and all your father’s house.”
राजाले जवाफ दिए, “अहीमेलेक, तँ र तेरा बुबाको घरानाका सबै जना निश्चय नै मर्नेछौ ।”
17 The king said to the guard who stood about him, “Turn and kill the priests of Yahweh, because their hand also is with David, and because they knew that he fled and didn’t disclose it to me.” But the servants of the king wouldn’t put out their hand to fall on the priests of Yahweh.
राजाले तिनका वरिपरि खडा बएका अङ्गरक्षकलाई भने, “फर्क र परमप्रभुको पुजारीहरूलाई मार् । किनभने तिनीहरूका हात पनि दाऊदसँगै छन्, र किनभने तिनी भागेका थिए भनी तिनीहरूले थाहा पाए, तर त्यो कुरा मलाई प्रकट गरेनन् ।” तर राजाका सेवकहरूले परमप्रभुको पुजारीहरूलाई मार्नलाई आफ्ना हात हालेनन् ।
18 The king said to Doeg, “Turn and attack the priests!” Doeg the Edomite turned, and he attacked the priests, and he killed on that day eighty-five people who wore a linen ephod.
तब राजाले दोएगलाई भने, “फर्की र पुजारीहरूलाई मार् ।” त्यसैले एदोमी दोएग फर्के र पुजारीहरूलाई आक्रमण गरे । त्यस दिन एपोद लाउने पचासी जना मानिसहरूलाई उसले मार्यो ।
19 He struck Nob, the city of the priests, with the edge of the sword—both men and women, children and nursing babies, and cattle, donkeys, and sheep, with the edge of the sword.
उसले पुजारीहरूको सहर नोबलाई पनि तरवारले आक्रमण गर्यो । पुरुष र स्त्री, बालक र दूधे बालक, गोरुहरू र गधाहरू र भेडाहरू सबैलाई उसले तरवारले मार्यो ।
20 One of the sons of Ahimelech the son of Ahitub, named Abiathar, escaped and fled after David.
तर अहीतूबका छोरा अहीमेलेकका छोराहरूमध्ये अबीयाथार नाउँका एक जना उम्के र दाऊदकहाँ गए ।
21 Abiathar told David that Saul had slain Yahweh’s priests.
शाऊलले परमप्रभुका पुजारीहरूलाई मरेको कुरा अबीयाथारले दाऊदलाई सुनाए ।
22 David said to Abiathar, “I knew on that day, when Doeg the Edomite was there, that he would surely tell Saul. I am responsible for the death of all the persons of your father’s house.
दाऊदले अबीयाथारलाई भने, “एदोमी दोएगलाई त्यहाँ देख्दा नै मलाई त्यसै दिन थाहा थियो, कि उसले निश्चय पनि शाऊललाई भन्नेछ । तिम्रो बुबाको परिवारको हरेकको मृत्युको निम्ति म जिम्मेवार छु ।
23 Stay with me. Don’t be afraid, for he who seeks my life seeks your life. You will be safe with me.”
मसँग बस र नडराऊ । तिम्रो ज्यान लिन खोज्नेले मेरो पनि ज्यान मार्न खोजेको छ । तिमी मसँग सुरक्षित हुनेछौ ।”
