< १ इतिहास 22 >
1 तब दाऊदले भने, “इस्राएलको निम्ति होमबलिको वेदी सहितको परमप्रभु परमेश्वरका मन्दिरको ठाउँ यहीं हुनेछ ।”
Then David said, “This is where the house of Yahweh God will be, with the altar for the burnt offerings of Israel.”
2 यसैले दाऊदले आफ्ना सेवकहरूलाई इस्राएलमा बसोबास गर्ने परदेशीहरूलाई भेला गराउने हुकुम गरे । तिनले उनीहरूलाई परमेश्वरको मन्दिर बनाउन ढुङ्गा काटेर तयार गर्ने काममा खटाए ।
So David ordered his servants to gather together the foreigners living in the land of Israel. He assigned them to be stonecutters, to cut stone blocks, in order to build God's house.
3 तिनले ढोकाहरू र चौकोसहरूका लागि कीला बनाउनका निम्ति धेरै मात्रामा फलाम दिए । तिनले जोख्न सक्नेभन्दा धेरै काँसा,
David supplied a large amount of iron for the nails for the doors to go in the gateways, and for braces. He also supplied more bronze than could be weighed,
4 र गन्न सक्नेभन्दा धेरै देवदारुका काठ पनि दिए (सीदोनी र टुरोसका मानिसहरूले गन्नै नसक्ने गरी प्रशस्त मात्रामा देवदारु दाऊदकहाँ ल्याइदिए) ।
and more cedar trees than could be counted. (The Sidonians and the Tyrians brought too many cedar logs to David to count.)
5 दाऊदले भने, “मेरो छोरो सोलोमन कलिलै र अनुभवहीन छ, र परमप्रभुको निम्ति निर्माण गरिने भवन विशेष रूपले भव्य हुनुपर्छ, ताकि यो अरू सबै देशमा प्रसिद्ध र महिमित हुनेछ । यसैले यसको भवन निर्माणको तयारी म नै गर्नेछु ।” यसैले दाऊदले आफ्नो मृत्यु हुनुअगि ठुलो तयारी गरे ।
David said, “My son Solomon is young and inexperienced, and the house that is to be built for Yahweh must be especially magnificent, so that it will be famous and glorious in all other lands. So I will prepare for its building.” So David made extensive preparations before his death.
6 तब तिनले आफ्नो छोरा सोलोमनलाई बोलाए र परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्वरको निम्ति एउटा मन्दिर बनाउने आज्ञा दिए ।
Then he called for Solomon his son and commanded him to build a house for Yahweh, the God of Israel.
7 दाऊदले सोलोमनलाई भने, “ए मेरो छोरो, परमप्रभु मेरा परमेश्वरका नाउँको निम्ति एउटा मन्दिर बनाउने मेरो इच्छा थियो ।
David said to Solomon, “My son, it was my intention to build a house myself, for the name of Yahweh my God.
8 तर परमप्रभुले मकहाँ आउनुभयो र भन्नुभयो, ‘तैंले धेरै रक्तपात गरेको र धेरै युद्ध गरेको छस् । मेरो नाउँको निम्ति मन्दिर तैंले बनाउनेछैनन्, किनभने मेरो दृष्टिमा तैंले पृथ्वीमा धेरै रगत बगाएको छस् ।
But Yahweh came to me and said, 'You have shed much blood and have fought many battles. You will not build a house for my name, because you have shed much blood on the earth in my sight.
9 तापनि, तेरो एउटा छोरो हुनेछ जो शान्तिप्रिय मानिस हुनेछ । उसका चारैतिरका शत्रुहरूबाट म उसलाई आराम दिनेछु । किनकि उसको नाउँ सोलोमन हुनेछ, र उसको समयमा म इस्राएललाई शान्ति र चैन दिनेछु ।
However, you will have a son who will be a peaceful man. I will give him rest from all his enemies on every side. For his name will be Solomon, and I will give peace and quiet to Israel in his days.
10 मेरो नाउँको निम्ति एउटा मन्दिर उसैले बनाउनेछ । ऊ मेरो छोरो हुनेछ, र म उसका पिता हुनेछु । म उसको राज्यको सिंहासन इस्राएलमा सदासर्वदाको स्थापित गर्नेछु ।’
He will build a house for my name. He will be my son, and I will be his father. I will establish the throne of his kingdom over Israel forever.'
11 अब ए मेरो छोरो, परमप्रभु तँसँग रहनुभएको होस् र तँलाई सफलता दिनुभएको होस् । परमप्रभु तेरा परमेश्वरको मन्दिर तैंले नै बनाउनेछस् भनी उहाँले भन्नुभएझैं तैंले त्यो बनाउनेछस्।
Now, my son, may Yahweh be with you and enable you to succeed. May you build the house of Yahweh your God, as he said you would.
12 परमप्रभुले नै तँलाई अन्तर्दृष्टि र समझ दिनुभएको होस्, ताकि उहाँले तँलाई इस्राएलमाथि अधिकार दिनुहुँदा तैंले परमप्रभु तेरा परमेश्वरको व्यवस्था पालन गर्नेछस् ।
Only may Yahweh give you insight and understanding, so that you may obey the law of Yahweh your God, when he places you in charge over Israel.
13 तब इस्राएलको निम्ति परमप्रभुले मोशालाई दिनुभएका विधि र नियमहरूलाई तैंले होशियारसाथ पालन गरिस् भने तँ सफल हुनेछस् । बलियो र साहसी हो । नडरा वा निरुत्साहित नहो ।
Then you will succeed, if you carefully obey the statutes and the decrees that Yahweh gave to Moses concerning Israel. Be strong and courageous. Do not fear or be discouraged.
14 अब हेर्, ज्यादै प्रयत्नका साथ मैले परमप्रभुका मन्दिरको निम्ति एक लाख तोडा सुन, दश लाख तोडा चाँदी, धेरै मात्रामा काँसा र फलाम तयार गरेको छु । मैले काठपात र ढुङ्गा पनि तयार गरिराखेको छु । यी सबैमा तैंले अरू थप्नुपर्छ ।
Now, see, at great effort I have prepared for Yahweh's house 100,000 talents of gold, one million talents of silver, and bronze and iron in large quantities. I have also provided timber and stone. You must add more to all this.
15 तँसित धेरै कामगर्ने मानिसहरू छन्: ढुङ्गा काट्नेहरू, डकर्मीहरू, सिकर्मीहरू, र हरेक किसिमका शिल्पकारहरू अनगिन्ती छन्,
You have many workmen with you: stonecutters, masons, carpenters, and skillful craftsmen without number of every kind,
16 जसले सुन, चाँदी, काँसा र फलामका काम गर्न सक्छन् । उठ् र काम सुरु गर्, र परमप्रभु तँसित हुनुभएको होस् ।”
who can work with gold, silver, bronze, and iron. Arise and begin the work, and may Yahweh be with you.”
17 दाऊदले इस्राएलका सबै अगुवाहरूलाई आफ्ना छोरा सोलोमनलाई सघाउन भनी यसो भनेर आदेश दिए,
David also ordered all the leaders of Israel to help Solomon his son, saying,
18 “परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्वर तिमीहरूसँग हुनुहुन्छ र उहाँले तिमीहरूलाई चारैतिरबाट शान्ति दिनुभएको छ । उहाँले यस क्षेत्रका बासिन्दाहरूलाई मेरो हातमा दिनुभएको छ । यो क्षेत्र परमप्रभु र उहाँका मानिसहरूका अधीनमा छन् ।
“Yahweh your God is with you and has given you peace on every side. He has given the region's inhabitants into my hand. The region is subdued before Yahweh and his people.
19 अब आफ्नो सारा हृदय र आफ्नो प्राणले परमप्रभु आफ्ना परमेश्वरको खोजी गर । उठ र परमप्रभु परमेश्वरको पवित्रस्थान निर्माण गर । त्यसपछि तिमीहरूले परमप्रभुका करारको सन्दूक र परमेश्वरका पवित्र कुराहरू परमेश्वरको नाउँको निम्ति बनाइएको मन्दिरमा ल्याओ ।”
Now seek Yahweh your God with all your heart and your soul. Get up and build the holy place of Yahweh God. Then you can bring the ark of the covenant of Yahweh and the things that belong to God into the house built for Yahweh's name.”
