१ इतिहास 11

1 त्‍यसपछि सबै इस्राएल हेब्रोनमा दाऊदकहाँ आए र भने, “हेर्नुहोस्, हामीहरू तपाईंकै हाडनाता हौ ।

Then all Israel gathered themselves to David to Hebron, saying, Behold, we are thy bone and thy flesh.

2 हालैमा बितेका समयमा, जब शाऊल हाम्रा राजा थिए, तब तपाईंले नै इस्राएलको सेनाको नेतृत्‍व गर्नुभयो । परमप्रभु तपाईंका परमेश्‍वरले तपाईंलाई यसो भन्‍नुभयो, ‘तैंले नै मेरा मानिस इस्राएलको रेखदेख गर्नेछस्, र तँ नै मेरा मानिस इस्राएलको शासक हुनेछस्‌’ ।”

And moreover in time past, even when Saul was king, thou wast he that leddest out and broughtest in Israel: and the LORD thy God said to thee, Thou shalt feed my people Israel, and thou shalt be ruler over my people Israel.

3 त्यसैले इस्राएलका सबै धर्म-गुरुहरू हेब्रोनमा दाऊद राजाकहाँ आए, र त्‍यहीं नै दाऊदले परमप्रभुको सामुन्‍ने तिनीहरूसित करार गरे । तिनीहरूले दाऊदलाई इस्राएलमाथि राजा अभिषेक गरे । यसरी शमूएलद्वारा घोषणा गरिएको परमप्रभुको वचन पुरा भयो ।

Therefore came all the elders of Israel to the king to Hebron; and David made a covenant with them in Hebron before the LORD; and they anointed David king over Israel, according to the word of the LORD by Samuel.

4 दाऊद र सारा इस्राएल यरूशलेममा (अर्थात् यबूसमा) गए । यति बेला त्‍यस देशका बसिन्‍दा यबूसीहरू त्‍यहाँ थिए ।

And David and all Israel went to Jerusalem, which is Jebus; where the Jebusites were, the inhabitants of the land.

5 यबूसका बसिन्‍दाहरूले दाऊदलाई भने, “तपाईं यहाँ कहिल्‍यै आउनुहुनेछैन ।” तर दाऊदले सियोनको किल्‍ला अर्थात् दाऊदको सहरलाई लिए ।

And the inhabitants of Jebus said to David, Thou shalt not come here. Nevertheless David took the strong hold of Zion, which is the city of David.

6 दाऊदले भनेका थिए, “यबूसीहरूलाई जोसुकैले सबभन्‍दा पहिले आक्रमण गर्छ त्‍यो नै मुखिया र कमान्‍डर हुनेछ ।” यसैले सरूयाहका छोरा योआबले सबभन्‍दा पहिले आक्रमण गरे, त्यसैले तिनलाई मुखिया बनाइयो ।

And David said, Whoever smiteth the Jebusites first shall be chief and captain. So Joab the son of Zeruiah went up first, and was chief.

7 तब दाऊद त्यही किल्‍लामा बसोबास गर्न थाले । यसैले तिनीहरूले त्‍यसलाई दाऊदको सहर नामाकरण गरे ।

And David dwelt in the strong hold; therefore they called it the city of David.

8 टेवा दिने गाराहरू र पछाडिबाट चारैतिरको पर्खालसम्‍म किल्‍लाको वरिपरि तिनले सहर बनाए । योआबले चाहिं बाँकी सहरको पुनर्निर्माण गरे ।

And he built the city all around, even from Millo all around: and Joab repaired the rest of the city.

9 दाऊद झन्‌-झन्‌ शक्तिशाली हुँदै गए किनभने सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभु तिनीसित हुनुहुन्‍थ्‍यो ।

So David became greater and greater: for the LORD of hosts was with him.

10 इस्राएलको विषयमा परमप्रभुको वचन पालन गर्दै दाऊदको राज्‍यमा तिनको साथमा तिनलाई राजा बनाउनलाई जम्‍मै इस्राएलसँगै मिलेर आफूलाई सामर्थ्‍यवान् देखाउने तिनका अगुवाहरू यी नै थिए

These also are the chief of the mighty men whom David had, who strengthened themselves with him in his kingdom, and with all Israel, to make him king, according to the word of the LORD concerning Israel.

11 दाऊदका शक्तिशाली मानिसहरूको सूची यही होः हक्‍मोनी याशोबाम अधिकारीहरूका कमान्‍डर थिए । तिनले एकपल्‍ट तिन सय जनालाई भालाले मारेका थिए ।

And this is the number of the mighty men whom David had; Jashobeam, an Hachmonite, the chief of the captains: he lifted his spear against three hundred slain by him at one time.

12 तिनीपछि अहोही दोदैका छोरा एलाजार थिए, जो तीन जना वीर मानिसमध्‍ये एक थिए ।

And after him was Eleazar the son of Dodo, the Ahohite, who was one of the three mighty men.

13 तिनी दाऊदसँग पास-दम्‍मीममा थिए, जहाँ जौको एउटा खेतमा पलिश्‍तीहरू युद्धको निम्‍ति भेला भए र पलिश्तीहरूदेखि सेना भाग्यो ।

He was with David at Pasdammim, and there the Philistines were gathered to battle, where was a parcel of ground full of barley; and the people fled from before the Philistines.

14 तिनीहरू खेतको बिचमा खडा भए । तिनीहरूले त्यसको रक्षा गरे, र पलिश्तीहरूलाई काटे र परमप्रभुले ठूलो विजय दिनुभएर तिनीहरूको उद्धार गर्नुभयो ।

And they set themselves in the midst of that parcel, and delivered it, and slew the Philistines; and the LORD saved them by a great deliverance.

15 तब ती तिस जना मुख्‍य अगुवामध्‍ये यी तिन जना अदुल्‍लामको ओडारमा भएको पहरामा दाऊद भएका ठाउँमा गए । पलिश्‍तीहरूका सेना रपाईहरूको मैदानमा छाउनी हालेर बसेका थिए ।

Now three of the thirty captains went down to the rock to David, into the cave of Adullam; and the host of the Philistines encamped in the valley of Rephaim.

16 त्‍यस बेला दाऊदचाहिं आफ्‍नो किल्ला अर्थात् एउटा गुफामा थिए, जबकी पलिश्‍तीहरूले बेथलेहेममा आफ्‍नो छाउनी हालेका थिए ।

And David was then in the strong hold, and the Philistines’ garrison was then at Bethlehem.

17 दाऊदलाई तिर्खा लाकेको थियो र तिनले भने, “कसैले बेथलेहेमको मूल ढोकाको छेउमा भएको इनारबाट पानी ल्याएर पिउन दिए हुन्‍थ्‍यो!”

And David longed, and said, O that one would give me drink of the water of the well of Bethlehem, that is at the gate!

18 यसैले ती तीन जना वीर मानिसले पलिश्‍तीहरूका सेनाको बिचबाट गएर बेथलेहेमको मूल ढोकाको छेउको इनारबाट पानी उघाए । तिनीहरूले त्‍यो पानी लिए र त्‍यो दाऊदकहाँ ल्‍याए, तर तिनले त्‍यो पिउन इन्‍कार गरे । बरु, तिनले त्‍यो परमप्रभुमा खन्‍याए ।

And the three broke through the host of the Philistines, and drew water out of the well of Bethlehem, that was by the gate, and took it, and brought it to David: but David would not drink of it, but poured it out to the LORD,

19 तब तिनले भने, “मैले यसो कहिले पनि नगर्नुपरोस्! के मैले यि मानिसहरूको रगत पिउनू, जसले आफ्नो जीवनलाई नै खतरामा हालेका छन्?” तिनीहरूले आफ्नो जीवन जोखिममा पारेका हुनाले, दाऊदले त्‍यो पिउन इन्कार गरे । यी तीन जना वीर मानिसका कामहरू यी नै थिए ।

And said, My God forbid it me, that I should do this thing: shall I drink the blood of these men that have put their lives in jeopardy? for with the jeopardy of their lives they brought it. Therefore he would not drink it. These things did these three mighty men.

20 योआबका भाइ अबीशै ती तीन जनाका प्रमुख थिए । एकपल्‍ट तिनले तिन सय जनाको विरुद्ध भालाको प्रयोग गरे र तिनीहरूलाई मारे । ती तिन जनासँगै तिनको पनि उल्‍लेख गरिएको छ ।

And Abishai the brother of Joab, he was chief of the three: for lifting his spear against three hundred, he slew them, and had a name among the three.

21 तिन जनामध्ये तिनलाई दोब्बर सम्मान दिइयो र तिनीहरूका प्रमुख भए, तापनि तिनी तिमध्‍येका एक जना भने थिएनन् ।

Of the three, he was more honourable than the two; for he was their captain: but he attained not to the first three.

22 यहोयादाका छोरा बनायाह कब्‍सेलका वीर योद्धा थिए, जसले महान् कामहरू गरे । तिनले मोआबका एरिएलका दुई छोरालाई मारे । तिनी एक दिन एउटा खाडलभित्र गए र हिउँ परिरहेको बेलामा एउटा सिंहलाई मारे ।

Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, the son of a valiant man of Kabzeel, who had done many deeds; he slew two lionlike men of Moab: also he went down and slew a lion in a pit in a snowy day.

23 तिनले पाँच हात अल्‍गो एक जना मिश्रीलाई पनि मारे । त्यस मिश्रीको भाला कपडा बुन्‍ने जुलाहाको डन्‍डा जत्रो थियो, तर यिनी एउटा लौरो मात्र लिएर त्योसँग लड्‌न गए । तिनले त्‍यो मिश्रीको हातबाट उसकै भाला खोसे र उसको आफ्‍नै बालाले उसलाई मारे ।

And he slew an Egyptian, a man of great stature, five cubits tall; and in the Egyptian’s hand was a spear like a weaver’s beam; and he went down to him with a staff, and plucked the spear out of the Egyptian’s hand, and slew him with his own spear.

24 यहोयादाका छोरा बनायाहले यस्ता वीरताका काम गरे, र ती तिन जनासँग तिनको नाउँ उल्‍लेख गरियो ।

These things did Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and had a name among the three mighty men.

25 तिस जना सामान्‍य सेनाभन्दा बढी सम्मान तिनलाई दिइयो, तर ती तीन जना वीर मानिसजत्तिकै सम्‍मान भने तिनलाई दिइएनन् । तापनि दाऊदले तिनलाई आफ्‍ना अङ्गरक्षकका निरीक्षक तुल्‍याए ।

Behold, he was honourable among the thirty, but attained not to the first three: and David set him over his guard.
