१ इतिहास 12

1 कीशका छोरा शाऊलको उपस्‍थितिबाट दाऊद निकाला भएकै अवस्‍थामा सिक्‍लगमा यी मानिसहरू तिनीकहाँ आए । यिनीहरू युद्ध तिनलाई सहयोग गर्ने सिपाहीहरू थिए ।

Now these are those who came to David to Ziklag while he was a fugitive from Saul the son of Kish. They were among the mighty men, his helpers in war.

2 यिनीहरू धनुहरू बोक्‍थे, अनि घुयेंत्रोले ढुङ्‍गा हान्‍न र धनुबाट काँड हान्‍न दाहिने र देब्रे दुवै हात चलाउन सक्‍थे । यिनीहरू शाऊलका कुल बेन्‍यामीनका थिए ।

They were armed with bows, and could use both the right hand and the left in slinging stones and in shooting arrows from the bow. They were of Saul’s relatives of the tribe of Benjamin.

3 तिनीहरूका प्रधान अहीएजेर त्यसपछि योआश, दुवै जना गिबियाती शेमाहका छोराहरू थिए । अज्‍मावेतका छोराहरू यजीएल र पलेत थिए । बराकाह, अनातोती येहू,

The chief was Ahiezer, then Joash, the sons of Shemaah the Gibeathite; Jeziel and Pelet, the sons of Azmaveth; Beracah; Jehu the Anathothite;

4 गिबोनी यिश्‍मायाह, जो तिस जनामध्‍येका एक सिपाही थिए (र तिस जनाका कमाण्‍डर थिए), यर्मिया, यहासेल, योहानान र गदेराती योजाबाद,

Ishmaiah the Gibeonite, a mighty man among the thirty and a leader of the thirty; Jeremiah; Jahaziel; Johanan; Jozabad the Gederathite;

5 एलूजै, यरीमोत, बाल्‍याह, शमरयाह, हारूपी शपत्‍याह,

Eluzai; Jerimoth; Bealiah; Shemariah; Shephatiah the Haruphite;

6 कोरहवंशी एल्‍काना, यिश्‍याह, अज्रेल, योएजेर र याशोबाम,

Elkanah, Isshiah, Azarel, Joezer, and Jashobeam, the Korahites;

7 गदोरका यरोहामका छोराहरू योएलह र जबदियाह थिए ।

and Joelah and Zebadiah, the sons of Jeroham of Gedor.

8 कोही गादीहरू पनि उजाड-स्‍थानको किल्लामा दाऊदसँग सहभागी भए । तिनीहरू युद्धका निम्ति तालिमप्राप्‍त योद्धाहरू थिए, जसले ढाल र भाला चलाउन सक्थे, जसका अनुहारहरू सिंहका अनुहारहरूजस्‍तै डरलाग्दा थिए । तिनीहरू पहाडहरूमा हरिणझैं तेजिला थिए ।

Some Gadites joined David in the stronghold in the wilderness, mighty men of valor, men trained for war, who could handle shield and spear; whose faces were like the faces of lions, and they were as swift as the gazelles on the mountains:

9 एसेर तिनीहरूका अगुवा थिए, दोस्रा ओबदिया, तेस्रा एलिआब,

Ezer the chief, Obadiah the second, Eliab the third,

10 चौथा मिश्‍मन्‍ना, पाँचौं यर्मिया,

Mishmannah the fourth, Jeremiah the fifth,

11 छैटौं अत्तै, सातौं एलीएल,

Attai the sixth, Eliel the seventh,

12 आठौं योहानान, नवौं एल्‍जाबाद,

Johanan the eighth, Elzabad the ninth,

13 दशौं यर्मिया र एघारौं मकबन्‍ने थिए ।

Jeremiah the tenth, and Machbannai the eleventh.

14 गादका यी छोराहरू सेनाका अगुवाहरू थिए । तल्‍लो दर्जाले सय जना र माथिल्‍लो दर्जाले हजार जनाको नेतृत्व गरे ।

These of the sons of Gad were captains of the army. He who was least was equal to one hundred, and the greatest to one thousand.

15 पहिलो महिनामा बढीले किनारै ढाकेको बेलामा यिनीहरूले यर्दन तरे, अनि उपत्‍यकाको पूर्व र पश्‍चिम दुवैतर्फ बस्‍ने सबैलाई लखेटे ।

These are those who went over the Jordan in the first month, when it had overflowed all its banks; and they put to flight all who lived in the valleys, both toward the east and toward the west.

16 बेन्‍यामीन र यहूदाका केही मानिसहरू दाऊदकहाँ किल्लामा आए ।

Some of the children of Benjamin and Judah came to the stronghold to David.

17 तिनीहरूलाई भेट्‌न दाऊद बाहिर निस्‍केर गए र यसो भनेर सम्‍बोधन गरे, “तिमीहरू मकहाँ शान्‍तिमा मलाई सहायता गर्न आएका हौ भने, तिमीहरू मसित सहभागी हुन सक्‍छौ । तर धोकाबाजी गरेर मेरा शत्रुहरूका हातमा मलाई सुम्‍पिदिन तिमीहरू आएका हौ भने, हाम्रा पुर्खाहरूका परमेश्‍वरले हेर्नुहुन्‍छ र तिमीहरूलाई हप्‍काउनुहुन्‍छ, किनकि मैले कुनै खराबी गरेको छैन ।”

David went out to meet them, and answered them, “If you have come peaceably to me to help me, my heart will be united with you; but if you have come to betray me to my adversaries, since there is no wrong in my hands, may the God of our fathers see this and rebuke it.”

18 तब अमासैमा आत्मा आउनुभयो, जो ती तिस जनामध्‍येका अगुवा थिए । अमासैले भने, “ए दाऊद, हामी तपाईंका हौं । ए यिशैका छोरा, हामी तपाईंको पक्षमा छौं । तपाईंलाई सहायता गर्ने जोसुकैमा शान्ति होस् । तपाईंका सहयोगीहरूमा शान्‍ति होस्, किनकि तपाईंका परमेश्‍वरले तपाईंलाई सहायता गरिरहनुभएको छ ।” तब दाऊदले तिनीहरूलाई ग्रहण गरे र आफ्‍ना मानिसहरूका कमाण्डरहरू तुल्‍याए ।

Then the Spirit came on Amasai, who was chief of the thirty, and he said, “We are yours, David, and on your side, you son of Jesse. Peace, peace be to you, and peace be to your helpers; for your God helps you.” Then David received them and made them captains of the band.

19 पलिश्‍तीहरूसँग मिलेर दाऊदले शाऊलको विरुद्ध लड्‌न जाँदा, मनश्‍शेका केही मानिसहरूसमेत दाऊदतर्फ लागे । तापनि तिनीहरूले पलिश्‍तीहरूलाई मदत गरेनन्, किनभने पलिश्‍तीहरूका शासकहरूले एकआपसमा सल्‍लाह गरे र दाऊदलाई फर्काइदिए । तिनीहरूले भने, “हाम्रो जीवन जोखिमपूर्ण हुँदा तिनले आफ्‍ना मालिक शाऊलको साथ दिएर हामीलाई त्‍याग्‍नेछन् ।”

Some of Manasseh also joined David when he came with the Philistines against Saul to battle, but they didn’t help them, for the lords of the Philistines sent him away after consultation, saying, “He will desert to his master Saul to the jeopardy of our heads.”

20 तिनी सिक्‍लगमा जाँदा तिनीतर्फ लागेर आउने मनश्‍शेका मानिसहरू अदनाह, योजाबाद, येदीएल, मिखाएल, योजाबाद, एलीहू र सिल्‍लतै थिए । यि मनश्‍शेका हजार-हजार जनाका सेनानीहरू थिए ।

As he went to Ziklag, some from Manasseh joined him: Adnah, Jozabad, Jediael, Michael, Jozabad, Elihu, and Zillethai, captains of thousands who were of Manasseh.

21 यिनीहरूले नै लूटपीट गर्नेहरूका विरुद्धमा वीरतासँग दाऊदका साथ दिए, किनकि तिनीहरू योद्धाहरू थिए । पछि तिनीहरू सेनाका कमाण्‍डरहरू भए ।

They helped David against the band of raiders, for they were all mighty men of valor and were captains in the army.

22 परमेश्‍वरको सेनाजस्तै ठूलो दाऊदको सेना नहुन्जेल दिनदिनै तिनलाई सहायता गर्न मानिसहरू तिनीकहाँ आए ।

For from day to day men came to David to help him, until there was a great army, like God’s army.

23 शाऊलको राज्‍याधिकार दाऊदलाई दिएर परमप्रभुको वचन पूरा गर्नलाई हतियारले सुसज्‍जित भएर हेब्रोनमा दाऊदसँग मिल्‍न आएका सिपाहीहरूका सूचीको लेख यही हो ।

28 अनि एक जना जवान, बलियो र साहसी मानिस सादोकको साथमा उसका आफ्‍नै बाबुका परिवारका बाईस जना अगुवा थिए ।

and Zadok, a young man mighty of valor, and of his father’s house twenty-two captains.

29 शाऊलका कुल बेन्‍यामीनबाट तिन हजार जना थिए । तिमध्‍येका धेरैजसो त्‍यस बेलासम्‍म शाऊलप्रति निष्‍ठावान् थिए ।

Of the children of Benjamin, Saul’s relatives: three thousand, for until then, the greatest part of them had kept their allegiance to Saul’s house.

30 एफ्राइमबाट मानिसहरूबाट २०,८०० यद्धाहरू, जो आफ्‍ना पिताका परिवारमा प्रसिद्ध थिए ।

31 मनश्‍शेबाट आधा कुलका १८,००० प्रख्यात मानिसहरू दाऊदलाई राजा बनाउनलाई आए ।

Of the half-tribe of Manasseh: eighteen thousand, who were mentioned by name, to come and make David king.

32 इस्‍साखारबाट २०० जना अगुवाहरू जो समयलाई बुझ्दथे र इस्राएलले के गर्नुपर्छ सो जान्दथे । तिनीहरूका सबै आफन्त तिनीहरूका अधीनमा थिए ।

Of the children of Issachar, men who had understanding of the times, to know what Israel ought to do, their heads were two hundred; and all their brothers were at their command.

33 जबूलूनबाट सबै किसिमका हतियारसहित लडाइँको निम्‍ति तयार भएका र एकचित्त किसिमले निष्‍ठावान् हुन तयार ५०,००० योद्धाहरू थिए ।

Of Zebulun, such as were able to go out in the army, who could set the battle in array with all kinds of instruments of war: fifty thousand who could command and were not of double heart.

34 नप्‍तालीबाट १,००० अधिकारीहरू, र तिनीहरूका साथमा ढाल र भाला बोक्‍ने ३७,००० मानिसहरू थिए ।

38 युद्धको निम्‍ति सुसज्‍जित यी सबै योद्धाहरू दाऊदलाई सारा इस्राएलमाथि राजा बनाउने दृढ़ सङ्कल्‍प गरेर हेब्रोनमा आए । इस्राएलका बाँकी सबै पनि दाऊदलाई राजा बनाउनलाई सहमत भए ।

All these were men of war who could order the battle array, and came with a perfect heart to Hebron to make David king over all Israel; and all the rest also of Israel were of one heart to make David king.

39 तिनीहरूले त्‍यहाँ खाँदै र पिउँदै तिन दिनसम्‍म दाऊदसँग बिताए, किनकि तिनीहरूका आफन्तहरूले तिनीहरूका निम्‍ति खानपानको बन्‍दोबस्‍त गरेर पठाएका थिए ।

They were there with David three days, eating and drinking; for their brothers had supplied provisions for them.

40 यसबाहेक, तिनीहरूका नजिक हुनेहरू, इस्‍साखार, जबूलून र नप्‍तालीसम्‍मले गधा, ऊँट, खच्‍चर र गोरुहरूमा खानेकुरा र नेभाराका डल्‍ला, किसमिसका झुप्‍पा, दाखमद्य, तेल, गाई-गोरुहरू, भेडाहरू ल्याए, किनकि इस्राएलले उत्सव मनाउँदै थियो ।

Moreover those who were near to them, as far as Issachar, Zebulun, and Naphtali, brought bread on donkeys, on camels, on mules, and on oxen: supplies of flour, cakes of figs, clusters of raisins, wine, oil, cattle, and sheep in abundance; for there was joy in Israel.
