< १ इतिहास 22 >
1 तब दाऊदले भने, “इस्राएलको निम्ति होमबलिको वेदी सहितको परमप्रभु परमेश्वरका मन्दिरको ठाउँ यहीं हुनेछ ।”
Then David said, “This is the house of the LORD God, and this is the altar of burnt offering for 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 ।
David gave orders to gather together the foreigners who were in Eretz-Israel; and he set masons to cut dressed stones to build God’s house.
3 तिनले ढोकाहरू र चौकोसहरूका लागि कीला बनाउनका निम्ति धेरै मात्रामा फलाम दिए । तिनले जोख्न सक्नेभन्दा धेरै काँसा,
David prepared iron in abundance for the nails for the doors of the gates and for the couplings, and bronze in abundance without weight,
4 र गन्न सक्नेभन्दा धेरै देवदारुका काठ पनि दिए (सीदोनी र टुरोसका मानिसहरूले गन्नै नसक्ने गरी प्रशस्त मात्रामा देवदारु दाऊदकहाँ ल्याइदिए) ।
and cedar trees without number, for the Sidonians and the people of Tyre brought cedar trees in abundance to David.
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, “Solomon my son is young and tender, and the house that is to be built for the LORD must be exceedingly magnificent, of fame and of glory throughout all countries. I will therefore make preparation for it.” So David prepared abundantly 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 the LORD, 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 his son, “As for me, it was in my heart to build a house to the name of the LORD 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 the LORD’s word came to me, saying, ‘You have shed blood abundantly and have made great wars. You shall not build a house to 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 ।
Behold, a son shall be born to you, who shall be a man of peace. I will give him rest from all his enemies all around; for his name shall be Solomon, and I will give peace and quietness 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 shall build a house for my name; and he will be my son, and I will be his father; and 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 the LORD be with you and prosper you, and build the house of the LORD your God, as he has spoken concerning you.
12 परमप्रभुले नै तँलाई अन्तर्दृष्टि र समझ दिनुभएको होस्, ताकि उहाँले तँलाई इस्राएलमाथि अधिकार दिनुहुँदा तैंले परमप्रभु तेरा परमेश्वरको व्यवस्था पालन गर्नेछस् ।
May the LORD give you discretion and understanding, and put you in charge of Israel, so that you may keep the law of the LORD your God.
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 prosper, if you observe to do the statutes and the ordinances which the LORD gave Moses concerning Israel. Be strong and courageous. Don’t be afraid and don’t be dismayed.
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, behold, in my affliction I have prepared for the LORD’s house one hundred thousand talents of gold, one million talents of silver, and bronze and iron without weight; for it is in abundance. I have also prepared timber and stone; and you may add to them.
15 तँसित धेरै कामगर्ने मानिसहरू छन्: ढुङ्गा काट्नेहरू, डकर्मीहरू, सिकर्मीहरू, र हरेक किसिमका शिल्पकारहरू अनगिन्ती छन्,
There are also workmen with you in abundance—cutters and workers of stone and timber, and all kinds of men who are skillful in every kind of work;
16 जसले सुन, चाँदी, काँसा र फलामका काम गर्न सक्छन् । उठ् र काम सुरु गर्, र परमप्रभु तँसित हुनुभएको होस् ।”
of the gold, the silver, the bronze, and the iron, there is no number. Arise and be doing, and may the LORD be with you.”
17 दाऊदले इस्राएलका सबै अगुवाहरूलाई आफ्ना छोरा सोलोमनलाई सघाउन भनी यसो भनेर आदेश दिए,
David also commanded all the princes 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 ।
“Isn’t the LORD your God with you? Hasn’t he given you rest on every side? For he has delivered the inhabitants of the land into my hand; and the land is subdued before the LORD and before 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 set your heart and your soul to follow the LORD your God. Arise therefore, and build the sanctuary of the LORD God, to bring the ark of the LORD’s covenant and the holy vessels of God into the house that is to be built for the LORD’s name.”
