१ राजाहरू 11

1 अब राजा सोलोमनले फारोकी छोरीलगायत मोआबी, अम्मोनी, सीदोनी र हित्तीजस्ता धेरै विदेशी स्त्रीहरूलाई प्रेम गरे ।

Now a number of strange women were loved by Solomon, women of the Moabites, Ammonites, Edomites, Zidonians, and Hittites:

2 तिनीहरू त्यस्ता जातिहरूका थिए जसको बारेमा परमप्रभुले इस्राएललीहरूलाई भन्नुभएको थियो, “विवाह गर्न तिनीहरूका बिचमा नजाओ, न त तिनीहरू तिमीहरूका बिचमा आऊन् किनकि निश्चय नै, तिनीहरूले तिमीहरूका ह्रदय तिनीहरूका देवताहरूतर्फ फर्काउने छन् ।” यस आज्ञाको बाबजुत पनि सोलोमन यी स्त्रीहरूप्रति मोहित भए ।

The nations of which the Lord had said to the children of Israel, You are not to take wives from them and they are not to take wives from you; or they will certainly make you go after their gods: to these Solomon was united in love.

3 सोलोमनका सात सय जना राजकीय पत्नी र तिन सय जना उपपत्नी थिए । तिनका पत्नीहरूले तिनको ह्रदयलाई बहकाइदिए ।

He had seven hundred wives, daughters of kings, and three hundred other wives; and through his wives his heart was turned away.

4 किनकि जब सोलोमन वृद्ध भए तिनका पत्नीहरूले तिनको ह्रदयलाई अन्य देवताहरूतर्फ फर्काइदिए । तिनको ह्रदय तिनका पिता दाऊदको ह्रदयजस्तै परमप्रभु तिनका परमेश्वरतर्फ पूर्ण रूपमा समर्पित भएन ।

For it came about that when Solomon was old, his heart was turned away to other gods by his wives; and his heart was no longer true to the Lord his God as the heart of his father David had been.

5 किनकि सोलोमन सीदोनीहरूकी देवी अश्तोरेत र अम्मोनीहरूको घिनलाग्दो देवता मोलोखको पछि लागे ।

For Solomon went after Ashtoreth, the goddess of the Zidonians, and Milcom, the disgusting god of the Ammonites.

6 सोलोमनले परमप्रभुको दृष्टिमा दुष्ट काम गरे । तिनले आफ्ना पिता दाऊदले गरेझैँ पूर्ण रूपमा परमप्रभुलाई पछ्याएनन् ।

And Solomon did evil in the eyes of the Lord, not walking in the Lord's ways with all his heart as David his father did.

7 तब सोलोमनले मोआबको घृणित देवता कमोश र अम्मोनीहरूको घृणित देवता मोलोखको निम्ति यरूशलेमको पूर्वपट्टिको डाँडामा पुजा गर्ने अग्लो स्थान बनाए ।

Then Solomon put up a high place for Chemosh, the disgusting god of Moab, in the mountain before Jerusalem, and for Molech, the disgusting god worshipped by the children of Ammon.

8 तिनले आफ्ना सबै विदेशी पत्नीका निम्ति पनि पुजा गर्ने अग्लो स्थानहरू बनाए जसले त्यहाँ तिनीहरूका देवताहरूलाई धूप बाल्ने र बलिदान चढाउने गर्थे ।

And so he did for all his strange wives, who made offerings with burning of perfumes to their gods.

9 परमप्रभु सोलोमनसित रिसाउनुभयो, किनकि तिनको ह्रदय इस्राएलका परमेश्वरबाट तर्केर गएको थियो यद्यपि उहाँ तिनीकहाँ दुई पटक देखा पर्नुभएको थियो,

And the Lord was angry with Solomon, because his heart was turned away from the Lord, the God of Israel, who had twice come to him in a vision;

10 र यसै विषयमा अर्थात् तिनी अरू देवताहरूको पछि लाग्न हुँदैन भनी उहाँले तिनलाई आज्ञा दिनुभएको थियो । तर सोलोमनले परमप्रभुको आज्ञा मानेनन् ।

And had given him orders about this very thing, that he was not to go after other gods; but he did not keep the orders of the Lord.

11 त्यसकारण परमप्रभुले सोलोमनलाई भन्नुभयो, “तैँले यसो गरेको कारण र तैँले मेरो करार र मैले तँलाई आज्ञा गरेका मेरा विधिविधानहरू पालन नगरेकोले निश्चय नै म यो राज्य तँबाट खोसेर तेरो दासलाई दिने छु ।

So the Lord said to Solomon, Because you have done this, and have not kept my agreement and my laws, which I gave you, I will take the kingdom away from you by force and will give it to your servant.

12 तथापि तेरा पिता दाऊदको खातिर म तेरो जीवनकालमा यसो गर्दिनँ, तर तेरो छोरोको पालमा त्यसको हातबाट म यसलाई विभाजन गरिदिने छु ।

I will not do it in your life-time, because of your father David, but I will take it from your son.

13 तापनि म सबै राज्य खोस्दिनँ । मेरा दास दाऊदको खातिर र मैले चुनेको यरूशलेमको खातिर म एउटा कुल तेरो छोरोलाई दिने छु ।”

Still I will not take all the kingdom from him; but I will give one tribe to your son, because of my servant David, and because of Jerusalem, the town of my selection.

14 तब परमप्रभुले सोलोमनको विरुद्धमा एदोमी हददलाई विरोधीको रूपमा उठाउनुभयो । तिनी एदोमको राजकीय घरानाका थिए ।

So the Lord sent Hadad the Edomite to make trouble for Solomon: he was of the king's seed in Edom.

15 दाऊद एदोममा छँदा सेनापति योआब मरेकाहरूको लाश गाड्न एदोममा उक्लेका थिए जहाँ हरेक पुरुष मारिएको थियो ।

And when David had sent destruction on Edom, and Joab, the captain of the army, had gone to put the dead into the earth, and had put to death every male in Edom;

16 योआबले एदोमको हरेक पुरुषलाई नमारुञ्जेल तिनी र इस्राएल त्यहाँ छ महिनासम्म बसेका थिए ।

(For Joab and all Israel were there six months till every male in Edom had been cut off; )

17 तर त्यस बेला हदद बालक भएकोले आफ्ना पिताका सेवकहरूद्वारा तिनलाई अन्य एदोमीहरूसँगै मिश्रमा लगिएको थियो ।

Hadad, being still a young boy, went in flight to Egypt, with certain Edomites, servants of his father;

18 तिनीहरू मिद्यानबाट निस्केर पारानमा आइपुगे जहाँबाट तिनीहरूले आफूसँगै केही मानिसहरूलाई मिश्रका राजा फारोकहाँ लिएर गए । फारोले तिनलाई एउटा घर, देश र भोजन जुटाइदिएका थिए ।

And they went on from Midian and came to Paran; and, taking men from Paran with them, they came to Egypt, to Pharaoh, king of Egypt, who gave him a house and gave orders for his food and gave him land.

19 हददले फारोको दृष्टिमा ठुलो निगाह पाए र फारोले तिनलाई आफ्नी पत्नी तहपेनस रानीकी एउटी बहिनीसित विवाह गरिदिए ।

Now Hadad was very pleasing to Pharaoh, so that he gave him the sister of his wife, Tahpenes the queen, for his wife.

20 तहपेनसकी बहिनीले हददबाट एउटा छोरो जन्माइन् । तिनीहरूले तिनलाई गनूबत नाम राखे । तहपेनसले तिनलाई फारोको राजदरबारमा हुर्काइन् । त्यसैले गनूबत फारोका छोराछोरीहरूका बिचमा राजदरबारमा हुर्किए ।

And the sister of Tahpenes had a son by him, Genubath, whom Tahpenes took care of in Pharaoh's house; and Genubath was living in Pharaoh's house among Pharaoh's sons.

21 तिनी मिश्रमा छँदा दाऊद आफ्ना पुर्खाहरूसित मिल्न गए र सेनापति योआब मरे भनी जब हददले सुने तिनले फारोलाई भने, “मेरो आफ्नै देशमा जानलाई मलाई अनुमति दिनुहोस् ।”

Now when Hadad had news in Egypt that David had been put to rest with his fathers, and that Joab, the captain of the army, was dead, he said to Pharaoh, Send me back to my country.

22 तब फारोले तिनलाई भने, “तर तिमीलाई यहाँ मसित केको अभाव छ र तिमी आफ्नै देशमा जान खोज्छौ?” हददले जवाफ दिए, “कुनै कुराको अभाव छैन । कृपया, मलाई जान दिनुहोस् ।”

But Pharaoh said to him, What have you been short of while you have been with me, that you are desiring to go back to your country? And he said, Nothing; but even so, send me back.

23 परमेश्वरले सोलोमनको विरुद्धमा एल्यादाका छोरा रेसोनलाई पनि विरोधीको रूपमा उठाउनुभयो । तिनी आफ्ना मालिक सोबाका राजा हददेजेरबाट भागेका थिए ।

And God sent another trouble-maker, Rezon, the son of Eliada, who had gone in flight from his lord, Hadadezer, king of Zobah:

24 दाऊदले सोबाका मानिसहरूलाई पराजित गर्दा रेसोनले आफ्ना लागि मानिसहरू भेला गरे र तिनी सानो मोर्चाका सेनापति बनेका थिए । रेसोनका मानिसहरू दमस्कस गए, र त्यहीँ बसोबास गरे । यसरी रेसोनले दमस्कसलाई नियन्त्रणमा लिए ।

He got some men together and made himself captain of a band of outlaws; and went to Damascus and became king there.

25 तिनी सोलोमनको जीवनभर इस्राएलका शत्रु थिए, र हददले पुर्‍याउएको सङ्कष्टमा तिनले पनि साथ दिए । रेसोन इस्राएललाई घृणा गर्थे र तिनले अराममाथि शासन गरे ।

He was a trouble to Israel all through the days of Solomon. And this is the damage Hadad did: he was cruel to Israel while he was ruler over Edom.

26 तब नबातका छोरा यारोबाम पनि राजाको विरुद्धमा बागी भए । तिनी सोलोमनका एक जना अधिकारी जेरेदाका एफ्राइमी थिए । तिनकी विधवा आमा सेरूआ थिइन् ।

And there was Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, an Ephraimite from Zeredah, a servant of Solomon, whose mother was Zeruah, a widow; and his hand was lifted up against the king.

27 तिनी राजाको विरुद्धमा उठे किनकि सोलोमनले टेवा दिने गाराहरू बनाएका थिए, र आफ्ना पिता दाऊदको सहरको पर्खालमा प्रवेशद्वार मर्मत गरेका थिए ।

The way in which his hand came to be lifted up against the king was this: Solomon was building the Millo and making good the damaged parts of the town of his father David;

28 यारोबाम एक शक्तिशाली मानिस थिए । तिनी मेहनती भएको देखेर सोलोमनले तिनलाई योसेफका घरानाका सारा बेगार काम गर्नेहरूमाथि तिनलाई नाइके तुल्याएका थिए ।

And Jeroboam was an able and responsible man; and Solomon saw that he was a good worker and made him overseer of all the work given to the sons of Joseph.

29 त्यस बेला यारोबाम यरूशलेममा जाँदा शीलोका अहियाह अगमवक्ताले तिनलाई बाटोमा भेटे । अहियाहले नयाँ खास्टो लगाएका थिए र मैदानमा दुई जना मानिस मात्र थिए ।

Now at that time, when Jeroboam was going out of Jerusalem, the prophet Ahijah the Shilonite came across him on the road; now Ahijah had put on a new robe; and the two of them were by themselves in the open country.

30 तब अहियाहले आफूले लगाएको नयाँ खास्टो निकाली त्यसलाई च्यातेर बाह्र टुक्रा बनाए ।

And Ahijah took his new robe in his hands, parting it violently into twelve.

31 तिनले यारोबामलाई भने, “दसवटा टुक्रा लिनुहोस्, किनकि इस्राएलका परमेश्वर परमप्रभु यसो भन्नुहुन्छ, 'हेर्, म सोलोमनको हातबाट राज्य टुक्रा पारेर तँलाई दस कुल दिने छु,

And he said to Jeroboam, Take ten of the parts, for this is what the Lord has said: See, I will take the kingdom away from Solomon by force, and will give ten tribes to you;

32 (तर मेरा दास दाऊदको खातिर र मैले इस्राएलका सबै कुलबाट चुनेको सहर यरूशलेमको खातिर सोलोमनलाई एउटा कुल दिने छु),

(But one tribe will be his, because of my servant David, and because of Jerusalem, the town which, out of all the tribes of Israel, I have made mine, )

33 किनकि तिनीहरूले मलाई त्यागेर सीदोनीहरूकी अश्तोरेत देवी, मोआबको कमोश देवता र अम्मोनीहरूको मोलोख देवतालाई पुजा गरेका छन् । आफ्ना पिता दाऊदले गरेझैँ मेरो दृष्टिमा जे ठिक छ त्यही गर्न र मेरा विधिविधानहरूसाथै मेरा उर्दीहरू पालन गर्न त्यो मेरो मार्गमा हिँडेको छैन ।

Because they are turned away from me to the worship of Ashtoreth, the goddess of the Zidonians, and Chemosh, the god of Moab, and Milcom, the god of the Ammonites; they have not been walking in my ways or doing what is right in my eyes or keeping my laws and my decisions as his father David did.

34 तथापि म सोलोमनको हातबाट पुरै राज्य भने खोस्दिनँ । बरु, मेरा आज्ञाहरू र मेरा विधिविधानहरू पालन गर्ने मैले चुनेका मेरा दास दाऊदको खातिर मैले त्यसलाई त्यसको जीवनभर शासक बनाएको छु ।

But I will not take the kingdom from him; I will let him be king all the days of his life, because of David my servant, in whom I took delight because he kept my orders and my laws.

35 तर म त्यसको छोरोको हातबाट राज्य खोसेर म दस कुललाई दिने छु ।

But I will take the kingdom from his son, and give it to you.

36 म एउटा कुल सोलोमनको छोरोलाई दिने छु ताकि मेरो नाउँ राख्न मैले चुनेको सहर यरूशलेममा मेरो सामु मेरा दास दाऊदको एउटा बत्ती सधैँ बलिरहोस् ।

And one tribe I will give to his son, so that David my servant may have a light for ever burning before me in Jerusalem, the town which I have made mine to put my name there.

37 म तँलाई चाहिँ लिने छु, र तैँले इच्छा गरेअनुसार तैँले शासन गर्ने छस्, र तँ इस्राएलमाथि राजा हुने छस् ।

And you I will take, and you will be king over Israel, ruling over whatever is the desire of your soul.

38 मेरा दास दाऊदले गरेझैँ मैले तँलाई दिएका सबै आज्ञा तैँले मानिस्, र मेरो दृष्टिमा जे ठिक छ त्यही गरिस्, र मेरा विधिविधानहरू र मेरा आज्ञाहरू पालन गर्न मेरा मार्गहरूमा हिँडिस् भने म तँसित हुने छु, र दाऊदको निम्ति निर्माण गरेझैँ म तेरो वंशलाई स्थिर गराउने छु, अनि इस्राएलचाहिँ म तँलाई दिने छु ।

And if you give attention to the orders I give you, walking in my ways and doing what is right in my eyes and keeping my laws and my orders as David my servant did; then I will be with you, building up for you a safe house, as I did for David, and I will give Israel to you.

39 म दाऊदका सन्तानहरूलाई दण्ड दिने छु, तर सदाको निम्ति भने होइन ।”

(So that I may send trouble for this on the seed of David, but not for ever.)

40 त्यसैले सोलोमनले यारोबामलाई मार्न खोजे । तर यारोबाम उठेर मिश्रका राजा शीशककहाँ भागे । सोलोमनको मृत्यु नहोउञ्जेलसम्म तिनी मिश्रमा नै बसे ।

And Solomon was looking for a chance to put Jeroboam to death; but he went in flight to Egypt, to Shishak, king of Egypt, and was in Egypt till the death of Solomon.

41 सोलोमनले गरेका अन्य कामहरू र तिनको बुद्धिको विषयमा के सोलोमनको इतिहासको पुस्तकमा लेखिएका छैनन् र?

Now the rest of the acts of Solomon, and all he did, and his wisdom, are they not recorded in the book of the acts of Solomon?

42 सोलोमनले यरूशलेममा बसी सारा इस्राएलमाथि चालिस वर्षसम्म शासन गरे ।

And the time Solomon was king in Jerusalem over all Israel was forty years.

43 तिनी आफ्ना पित्रहरूसित सुते, र तिनलाई तिनका पिता दाऊदको सहरमा गाडियो । तिनको ठाउँमा तिनका छोरा रहबाम राजा भए ।

And Solomon went to rest with his fathers, and was put into the earth in the town of David his father: and Solomon went to rest with his fathers and Rehoboam his son became king in his place.
