2 Chronicles 13
1 In the eighteenth year of King Jeroboam, Abijah began to reign over Judah.
राजा यरोबामको अठारौँ वर्षमा, अबियाले यहूदामा राज्य गर्न सुरु गरे ।
2 He reigned three years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Micaiah the daughter of Uriel of Gibeah. There was war between Abijah and Jeroboam.
तिनले यरूशलेममा तीन वर्ष राज्य गरे । तिनकी आमा गिबाका उरीएलकी छोरी माका थिइन् । अबिया र यारोबामका बीचमा युद्ध भयो ।
3 Abijah joined battle with an army of valiant men of war, even four hundred thousand chosen men; and Jeroboam set the battle in array against him with eight hundred thousand chosen men, who were mighty men of valor.
अबिया चार लाख छानिएका बलिया र वीर योद्धाहरू लिएर युद्ध गर्न गए । यारोबामले छानिएका बलिया र वीर आठ लाख योद्धाहरू लडाँइको निम्ति तैनाथ गरे ।
4 Abijah stood up on Mount Zemaraim, which is in the hill country of Ephraim, and said, “Hear me, Jeroboam and all Israel:
अबिया एफ्राइमको पहाडी देशमा भएको समारैम डाँडामा खडा भए र यसो भने, “हे यारोबाम र सारा इस्राएल हो, मेरो कुरा सुन!
5 Ought you not to know that Yahweh, the God of Israel, gave the kingdom over Israel to David forever, even to him and to his sons by a covenant of salt?
परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्वरले औपचारिक करारद्वारा सधैँको निम्ति दाऊद र तिनका सन्तानलाई इस्राएलमाथि शासन गर्न दिनुभएको कुरा के तिमीहरूलाई थाहा छैन?
6 Yet Jeroboam the son of Nebat, the servant of Solomon the son of David, rose up, and rebelled against his lord.
तापनि दाऊदका छोरा सोलोमनका सेवक नबातका छोरा यारोबाम उठ्यो र आफ्ना मालिकको विरुद्धमा बागी भयो ।
7 Worthless men were gathered to him, wicked fellows who strengthened themselves against Rehoboam the son of Solomon, when Rehoboam was young and tender hearted, and could not withstand them.
केही बेकम्मा बदमाशहरू त्यसको साथमा भेला भए । तिनीहरू सोलोमनका छोरा रहबामको विरुद्धमा आए, जति बेला रहबाम कलिलै र अनुभव नभएको र तिनीहरूको सामना गर्न नसक्ने अवस्थामा थिए ।
8 “Now you intend to withstand the kingdom of Yahweh in the hand of the sons of David. You are a great multitude, and the golden calves which Jeroboam made you for gods are with you.
यसैले तिमीहरूसँग एउटा ठूलो फौज भएको हुनाले र तिमीहरूसँग देवताहरू हुनलाई यारोबामले बनाएका यी सुनका बाछाहरू तिमीहरूसँग भएको हुनाले, अब तिमीहरू दाऊदका सन्तानहरूका हातमा भएको परमप्रभुका राज्यको विरुद्धमा खडा हुने योजना गर्दछौ ।
9 Haven’t you driven out the priests of Yahweh, the sons of Aaron, and the Levites, and made priests for yourselves according to the ways of the peoples of other lands? Whoever comes to consecrate himself with a young bull and seven rams may be a priest of those who are no gods.
तर के तिमीहरूले हारूनको वंशका परमप्रभुका पुजारीहरू र लेवीहरूलाई लखेट्ने र अरू देशका मानिसहरूले गरेझैं आफ्नै पुजारीहरूलाई नियुक्त गरेनौ र? जुनसुकै मानिस पुजारी भएर सेवा गर्नलाई एउटा बाछो र सात वटा भेडा लिएर आउँछ, त्यो जो देवताहरू नै होइनन्, त्यसको पुजारी बन्छ ।
10 “But as for us, Yahweh is our God, and we have not forsaken him. We have priests serving Yahweh, the sons of Aaron, and the Levites in their work.
तर हाम्रा बारेमा त, परमप्रभु नै हाम्रा परमेश्वर हुनुहुन्छ, र हामीले उहाँलाई त्यागेका छैनौं । हामीसँग परमप्रभुको सेवा गर्ने हारूनका सन्तानहरू पुजारीको रूपमा छन्, र आफ्नो काम गर्ने लेवीहरू छन् ।
11 They burn to Yahweh every morning and every evening burnt offerings and sweet incense. They also set the show bread in order on the pure table, and care for the gold lamp stand with its lamps, to burn every evening; for we keep the instruction of Yahweh our God, but you have forsaken him.
तिनीहरू हरेक बिहान र बेलुकी परमप्रभुको निम्ति होमबलि र सुगन्धित धूप चढ़ाउँछन् । पवित्र टेबलमा उपस्थितिको रोटीलाई मिलाएर राख्ने काम पनि तिनीहरू गर्छन् । तिनीहरू बेलुकैपिच्छे सुनको सामदानमा भएका बत्तीहरू बाल्दछन् । हामी परमप्रभु हाम्रा परमेश्वरका आज्ञा पालना गर्छौं, तर तिमीहरूले उहाँलाई त्यागेका छौ ।
12 Behold, God is with us at our head, and his priests with the trumpets of alarm to sound an alarm against you. Children of Israel, don’t fight against Yahweh, the God of your fathers; for you will not prosper.”
हेर, परमेश्वर हाम्रा शिरमा हामीसँग हुनुहुन्छ, र उहाँका पुजारीहरू तिमीहरूका विरुद्धमा खतराको संकेत दिनलाई तुरही लिएर यहाँ छन् । हे इस्राएलका मानिसहरू हो, परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका पुर्खाहरूका परमेश्वरको विरुद्धमा युद्ध नगर, किनकि तिमीहरू सफल हुनेछैनौ ।”
13 But Jeroboam caused an ambush to come about behind them; so they were before Judah, and the ambush was behind them.
तर यारोबामले आफ्नो फौजको एक दल पछिल्तिर गएर ढुकिबस्नलाई पठाएका थिए, र तिनको फौज चाहिं यहूदा, र तिनीहरूको पछाडि ढुकेर बसेका फौज थिए ।
14 When Judah looked back, behold, the battle was before and behind them; and they cried to Yahweh, and the priests sounded with the trumpets.
जब यहूदाका मानिसहरूले पछाडि हेरे, तब हेर, लडाइँ आफ्नो अगाडि र पछाडि दुवैतिर भएको देखे । तिनीहरूले परमप्रभुमा पुकारा गरे, र पुजारीहरूले आफ्ना तुरहीहरू फुके ।
15 Then the men of Judah gave a shout. As the men of Judah shouted, God struck Jeroboam and all Israel before Abijah and Judah.
त्यसपछि यहूदाका मानिसहरूले ठुलो सोरले कराए । जब तिनीहरूले ठुलो सोरले कराए, तब परमेश्वरले यारोबाम र सबै इस्राएललाई अबिया र यहूदाको सामुन्ने प्रहार गर्नुभयो ।
16 The children of Israel fled before Judah, and God delivered them into their hand.
इस्राएलका मानिसहरू यहूदाका सामुन्नेबाट भागे, र परमेश्वरले तिनीहरूलाई यहूदाको हातमा सुम्पिदिनुभयो ।
17 Abijah and his people killed them with a great slaughter, so five hundred thousand chosen men of Israel fell down slain.
अबिया र तिनका फौजले ठुलो सङ्ख्यामा तिनीहरूको हत्या गरे । इस्राएलका पाँच लाख चुनिएका मानिसहरू मरेर ढले ।
18 Thus the children of Israel were brought under at that time, and the children of Judah prevailed, because they relied on Yahweh, the God of their fathers.
यसरी इस्राएलका मानिसहरूलाई त्यस बेला पराजित गरियो । यहूदाका मानिसहरूले जिते, किनभने तिनीहरूले परमप्रभु आफ्ना पुर्खाहरूका परमेश्वरमाथि भरोसा गरे ।
19 Abijah pursued Jeroboam, and took cities from him: Bethel with its villages, Jeshanah with its villages, and Ephron with its villages.
अबियाले यारोबामलाई खेदे । तिनले उनीबाट बेथेल र त्यसका बस्ती, येशना र त्यसका बस्ती, अनि एप्रोन र त्यसका बस्तीसमेत कब्जा गरे ।
20 Jeroboam didn’t recover strength again in the days of Abijah. Yahweh struck him, and he died.
अबियाको शासनको समयमा यारोबामले फेरि आफ्नो शक्ति कदापि प्राप्त गर्न सकेनन् । परमप्रभुले उनलाई प्रहार गर्नुभयो, र उनी मरे ।
21 But Abijah grew mighty and took for himself fourteen wives, and became the father of twenty-two sons and sixteen daughters.
तर अबियाले शक्तिशाली भए । तिनले आफ्नो निम्ति चौध जना पत्नी ल्याए, र बाइस जना छोरा र सोह्र जना छोरीका पिता भए ।
22 The rest of the acts of Abijah, his ways, and his sayings are written in the commentary of the prophet Iddo.
अबिया बाँकी कामहरू र तिनका व्यवहार र वचनहरू इद्दो अगमवक्ताको इतिहासमा लेखिएका छन् ।
