< १ इतिहास 19 >

1 त्यसको केही समयपछि अम्‍मोनीहरूका राजा नाहाशको मृत्‍यु भयो, र तिनको सट्टामा तिनका छोरा राजा भए ।
And it came to pass after this, that Nahash the king of the sons of Ammon died, and his son reigned in his stead.
2 दाऊदले भने, “म नाहाशका छोरा हानूनलाई दया देखाउनेछु, किनकि तिनका पिताले मलाई दया देखाए ।” यसैले तिनका पिताको बारेमा सहानुभूति प्रकट गर्न दाऊदले दूतहरू पठाए । दाऊदका दूतहरू हानूनलाई सहानुभूति प्रकट गर्न अम्‍मोनीहरूको देशमा पसे ।
And David said, I will show kindness to Hanun the son of Nahash, because his father showed kindness to me. So David sent messengers to comfort him concerning his father. And David's servants came into the land of the sons of Ammon to Hanun, to comfort him.
3 तर अम्‍मोनी राजकुमारहरूले हानूनलाई भने, “दाऊदले तपाईंलाई सहानुभूति प्रकट गर्न मानिसहरू पठाउँदा तिनले तपाईंका पितालाई आदर गरेका हुन्‌ भनी के तपाईं सम्‍झनुहुन्‍छ? तपाईंको देशलाई पराजित गर्नको निम्ति जाँच गर्नलाई तिनका सेवकहरू आएका होइनन्‌ र?”
But the rulers of the sons of Ammon said to Hanun, Do thou think that David honors thy father, in that he has sent comforters to thee? Have not his servants come to thee to search, and to overthrow, and to spy out the land?
4 यसकारण हानूनले दाऊदका सेवकहरूलाई समाते, तिनीहरूका कपाल खौरिदिए, र काँधदेखि कम्मरसम्‍म तिनीहरूका आधा लुगा काटेर तिनीहरूलाई पठाइदिए ।
So Hanun took David's servants, and shaved them, and cut off their garments in the middle, even to their buttocks, and sent them away.
5 जब तिनीहरूले यो कुरा दाऊदलाई वर्णन गरिदिए, तिनले तिनीहरूसित भेट गर्न पठाए, किनकि तिनीहरूको साह्रै लाजमा पारिएका थिए । राजाले भने, “तिमीहरूका दाह्री फेरि नबढुञ्‍जेल यरीहोमा नै बस र त्यसपछि फर्क ।”
And they came and informed David about the men. And he sent to meet them, for the men were greatly ashamed. And the king said, Remain at Jericho until your beards be grown, and then return.
6 जब अम्‍मोनीहरूले आफूहरूला दाऊदको दृष्‍टिमा दुर्घन्दित भएको देखे, तब हानून र अम्‍मोनीहरूले अराम-नाहारैम, अराम-माका र सोबाबाट रथहरू र सारथिहरू ज्‍यालामा ल्‍याउन एक हजार तोडा चाँदी पठाए ।
And when the sons of Ammon saw that they had made themselves odious to David, Hanun and the sons of Ammon sent a thousand talents of silver to hire for them chariots and horsemen out of Mesopotamia, and out of Arammaacah, and out of Zobah.
7 उनीहरूले बत्तीस हजार रथ र सारथिहरू, अनि माकाका राजा र उनका मानिसहरूलाई ज्‍यालामा लिए, र उनीहरू आएर मेदबाको सामुन्‍ने छाउनी बनाए । त्यसपछि अम्‍मोनीहरूचाहिं आ-आफ्‍ना सहरहरूबाट भेला भएर लडाइँ गर्न आए ।
So they hired for them thirty-two thousand chariots, and the king of Maacah and his people, who came and encamped before Medeba. And the sons of Ammon gathered themselves together from their cities, and came to battle.
8 जब दाऊदले यो कुरा सुने, तिनले योआब र जम्‍मै सेनालाई तिनीहरूसँग भेट गर्न पठाए ।
And when David heard of it, he sent Joab, and all the army of the mighty men.
9 अम्‍मोनका मानिसहरू आए र सहरको मूल ढोकामा लडाइँको निम्ति पङ्क्तिवद्ध भए । सहायताका निम्ति आएका राजाहरू भने खुला मैदानमा थिए ।
And the sons of Ammon came out, and put the battle in array at the gate of the city. And the kings that came were by themselves in the field.
10 जब योआबले आफूलाई अगि र पछि दुवैतिर लडाइँले घेरेको थाहा पाए, तब तिनले केही असल इस्राएली फौजलाई लिए र अरामीहरूको विरुद्ध तयार पारे ।
Now when Joab saw that the battle was set against him in front and behind, he chose from all the choice men of Israel, and put them in array against the Syrians.
11 तिनका अरू बाँकी फौजलाई तिनले आफ्‍ना भाइ अबीशैको कमाण्‍डमा दिए, र उनीहरूलाई तिनले अम्‍मोनीहरूको विरुद्ध यद्धमा खडा गरे ।
And the rest of the company he committed into the hand of Abishai his brother, and they put themselves in array against the sons of Ammon.
12 योआबले भने, “अरामीहरू मेरो निम्‍ति साह्रै शक्तिशाली भए भने अबीशै तिमीले मेरो उद्धार गर्नुपर्छ । अम्‍मोनीहरू तिम्रो निम्‍ति साह्रै शक्तिशाली भए भने म आएर तिम्रो उद्धार गर्नेछु ।
And he said, If the Syrians be too strong for me, then thou shall help me, but if the sons of Ammon be too strong for thee, then I will help thee.
13 साहसिलो होऊ! हामी आफ्‍ना मानिस र हाम्रा परमेश्‍वरका सहरहरूका निम्‍ति साहसिलो होऔं, किनकि परमप्रभुको दृष्‍टिमा जे असल छ उहाँले त्‍यही गर्नुहुनेछ ।”
Be of good courage, and let us act the man for our people, and for the cities of our God. And Jehovah do that which seems good to him.
14 यसैले योआब र तिनका सेनाका फौज अरामीहरूका विरुद्ध अगाडि बढे । तिनीहरू इस्राएलको सेनाको सामुबाट भाग्‍न बाध्य पारिए ।
So Joab and the company that were with him drew near before the Syrians to the battle, and they fled before him.
15 जब अम्‍मोनका सेनाले अरामीहरूलाई भागेका देखे, तब उनीहरू पनि तिनका भाइ अबीशैको सामुबाट भागे र सहरभित्र फर्के । यसकारण योआब अम्मोनका मानिसहरूबाट फर्के र यरूशलेममा फिर्ता गए ।
And when the sons of Ammon saw that the Syrians had fled, they likewise fled before Abishai his brother, and entered into the city. Then Joab came to Jerusalem.
16 जब अरामीहरूले आफू इस्राएलद्वारा परास्‍त भएका देखे, तब तिनीहरूले यूफ्रेटिस नदीको पारिबाट हददेजेरका कमाण्‍डर शोपकको कमाण्‍डमा भएका अरू अरामी सेनालाई बोलाए ।
And when the Syrians saw that they were put to the worse before Israel, they sent messengers, and drew forth the Syrians that were beyond the River, with Shophach the captain of the army of Hadarezer at their head.
17 जब दाऊदलाई यसको बारेमा बताइयो, तिनले जम्मै इस्राएललाई जम्मा गरे, यर्दन नदी पार गरे र उनीहरूकहाँ गए । तिनले आरामीहरूको विरुद्ध लडाइँ गर्न सेनाको तयारी गरे र तिनीहरूले तिनीसँग युद्ध गरे ।
And it was told David. And he gathered all Israel together, and passed over the Jordan, and came upon them, and set the battle in array against them. So when David had put the battle in array against the Syrians, they fought with him.
18 आरामीहरू इस्राएलदेखि भागे, र दाऊदले अरामीहरूका सात हजार सारथिहरू र चालीस हजार पैदल सिपाहीहरू मारे । तिनले सेनाका कमाण्‍डर शोपकलाई पनि मारे ।
And the Syrians fled before Israel. And David killed of the Syrians the men of seven thousand chariots, and forty thousand footmen, and killed Shophach the captain of the army.
19 हददेजेरका अधीनमा भएका राजाहरूले जब आफू इस्राएलद्वारा परास्‍त भएका देखे, तब तिनीहरूले दाऊदसँग सन्‍धि गरे र तिनको सेवा गरे । यसैले अरामका मानिसहरूले फेरि कहिल्‍यै अम्‍मोनीहरूलाई सहायता दिनलाई राजी भएनन्‌ ।
And when the servants of Hadarezer saw that they were put to the worse before Israel, they made peace with David, and served him, neither would the Syrians help the sons of Ammon any more.
