१ राजाहरू 14

1 त्यस बेला यारोबामको छोरो अबिया अत्यन्तै बिरामी पर्‍यो ।

At that time Abia the son of Jeroboam fell sick.

2 यारोबामले आफ्नी पत्नीलाई भने, “उठ र तिमी मेरी पत्नी हौ भनी नचिन्नलाई आफ्नो भेष बदली गर । अनि शीलोमा जाऊ किनकि अहियाह अगमवक्ता त्यहीँ छन् । यी मानिसहरूमाथि म नै राजा हुनेथिएँ भनी मेरो बारेमा बताउने तिनी नै थिए ।

And Jeroboam said to his wife: Arise, and change thy dress, that thou be not known to be the wife of Jeroboam, and go to Silo, where Ahias the prophet is, who told me, that I should reign over this people.

3 आफ्नो साथमा दसवटा रोटी, केही फुरौला र एक भाँडो मह लिएर अहियाहकहाँ जाऊ । बालकलाई के हुने छ भनी तिनले तिमीलाई बताउने छन् ।”

Take also with thee ten leaves, and cracknels, and a pot of honey, and go to him: for he will tell thee what shall become of this child.

4 यारोबामकी पत्नीले त्यसै गरिन् । उनी बाटो लागिन् र शीलोमा गइन्, र अहियाहको घरमा आइन् । अहियाहले देख्न सक्दैनथे । तिनको वृद्धावस्थाको कारणले तिनले आफ्ना आँखाको ज्योति गुमाएका थिए ।

Jeroboam’s wife did as he told her: and rising up went to Silo, and came to the house of Ahias: but he could not see, for his eyes were dim by reason of his age.

5 परमप्रभुले अहियाहलाई भन्नुभयो, “हेर्, यारोबामकी पत्नी आफ्नो छोरोको बारेमा तँबाट सल्लाह लिन आउँदै छे किनकि त्यसको छोरो बिरामी परेको छ । तैँले यस्तो-यस्तो जवाफ दिनू किनकि त्यो अर्कै स्त्री भएझैँ त्यसले नाटक गर्छे ।”

And the Lord said to Ahias: Behold the wife of Jeroboam cometh in, to consult thee concerning her son that is sick: thus and thus shalt thou speak to her. So when she was coming in, and made as if she were another woman,

6 उनी ढोकामा आइपुग्दा अहियाहले उनको खुट्टाको आवाज सुने, र भने, “हे यारोबामकी पत्नी, भित्र आऊ । किन तिमी अर्कै स्त्री भएझैँ नाटक गर्छ्यौ? म खराब समाचारसहित तिमीकहाँ पठाइएको छु ।

Ahias heard the sound of her feet coming in at the door, and said: Come in, thou wife of Jeroboam: why dost thou feign thyself to be another? But I am sent to thee with heavy tidings.

7 गएर यारोबामलाई भन कि इस्राएलका परमेश्वर परमप्रभु भन्नुहुन्छ, 'मैले तँलाई मेरो जाति इस्राएलमाथि अगुवा हुनलाई मानिसहरूका बिचबाट उठाएँ ।

Go, and tell Jeroboam: Thus saith the Lord the God of Israel: Forasmuch as I exalted thee from among the people, and made thee prince over my people Israel:

8 मेरो दृष्टिमा जे ठिक छ त्यही गर्न अनि मेरा आज्ञाहरू पालन गर्न र सारा ह्रदयले मेरो पछि लाग्ने मेरा दास दाऊदजस्तै तँ नभए तापनि मैले दाऊदको घरानाबाट राज्य टुक्र्याई त्यो तँलाई दिएँ ।

And rent the kingdom away from the house of David, and gave it to thee, and thou hast not been as my servant David, who kept my commandments, and followed me with all his heart, doing that which was well pleasing in my sight:

9 तर तैँले तँभन्दा अगिका सबैले भन्दा दुष्ट काम गरेको छस् । तैँले अरू देवताका मूर्तिहरू र ढालेर बनाएका धातुका प्रतिमूर्तिहरू बनाएर मलाई रिस उठाएको छस्, र मलाई तेरो पीठपछि राखेको छस् ।

But hast done evil above all that were before thee, and hast made thee strange gods and molten gods, to provoke me to anger, and hast cast me behind thy back:

10 त्यसकारण हेर्, म तेरो परिवारमा विपत्ति ल्याउने छु । चाहे कमारा होस् या फुक्का, म इस्राएलको हरेक पुरुष बालकलाई खतम पारिदिने छु, र तेरो घरानालाई गोबर जलाएझैँ पूर्ण रूपमा हटाइदिने छु ।

Therefore behold I will bring evils upon the house of Jeroboam, and will cut of from Jeroboam him that pisseth against the wall, and him that is shut up, and the last in Israel: and I will sweep away the remnant of the house of Jeroboam, as dung is swept away till all be clean.

11 तेरो घरानाको हरेक व्यक्ति जो यस सहरमा मर्छ, त्यसलाई कुकुरहरूले खाने छन्, अनि खेतमा मर्ने जोसुकैलाई आकाशका चराचुरुङ्गीहरूले खाने छन् किनकि म परमप्रभुले यसो भनेको छु ।'

Them that shall die of Jeroboam in the city, the dogs shall eat: and them that shall die in the field, the birds of the air shall devour: for the Lord hath spoken it.

12 त्यसैले हे यारोबामकी पत्नी, उठेर आफ्नो घर फर्केर जाऊ । तिमी सहरमा प्रवेश गर्दा तिम्रो बालक अबिया मर्ने छ ।

Arise thou therefore, and go to thy house: and when thy feet shall be entering into the city, the child shall die,

13 सारा इस्राएलले त्यसको निम्ति शोक गर्ने छन् र त्यसलाई गाड्ने छन् । यारोबामको परिवारबाट चिहानमा जाने त्यही मात्र हुने छ किनकि यारोबामको घरबाट त्यसले मात्र इस्राएलका परमेश्वर परमप्रभुको दृष्टिमा निगाह पायो ।

And all Israel shall mourn for him, and shall bury him: for he only of Jeroboam shall be laid in a sepulchre, because in his regard there is found a good word from the Lord the God of Israel, in the house of Jeroboam.

14 साथै, त्यस दिन परमप्रभुले इस्राएलबाट एक जना राजा उठाउनुहुने छ जसले यारोबामको परिवारलाई खतम पारिदिने छ । आज नै त्यही दिन हो ।

And the Lord hath appointed himself a king over Israel, who shall cut off the house of Jeroboam in this day, and in this time:

15 किनकि पानीमा निगालो हल्लिएझैँ परमप्रभुले इस्राएललाई हल्लाउनुहुने छ, र उहाँले तिनीहरूका पिता-पुर्खाहरूलाई दिनुभएको यस असल देशबाट जरैदेखि उखेलिदिनुहुने छ । उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई यूफ्रेटिस नदीभन्दा पारि तितर-बितर पारिदिनुहुने छ किनकि तिनीहरूले अशेराका खम्बाहरू बनाई परमप्रभुलाई रिस उठाएका छन् ।

And the Lord God shall strike Israel as a reed is shaken in the water: and he shall root up Israel out of this good land, which he gave to their fathers, and shall scatter them beyond the river: because they have made to themselves groves, to provoke the Lord.

16 यारोबामले पाप गरेका कारण र तिनले इस्राएललाई पाप गर्न लगाएकाले उहाँले इस्राएललाई त्यागिदिनुहुने छ ।”

And the Lord shall give up Israel for the sins of Jeroboam, who hath sinned, and made Israel to sin.

17 त्यसैले यारोबामकी पत्नी उठिन् र बाटो लागिन् अनि तिर्सामा आइन् । उनले आफ्नो घरको सँघार टेक्दा बालक मर्‍यो ।

And the wife of Jeroboam arose, and departed, and came to Thersa: and when she was coming in to the threshold of the house, the child died;

18 सारा इस्राएलले त्यसलाई गाडे, र त्यसको निम्ति शोक गरे जस्तो परमप्रभुले आफ्ना दास अहियाह अगमवक्ताद्वारा भन्नुभएको थियो ।

And they buried him. And all Israel mourned for him according to the word of the Lord, which he spoke by the hand of his servant Ahias the prophet.

19 यारोबामका अन्य कामहरूको बारेमा अर्थात् कसरी तिनले युद्ध गरे र शासन गरे भन्ने विषयमा इस्राएलका राजाहरूको इतिहासको पुस्तकमा लेखिएका छन् ।

And the rest of the acts of Jeroboam, how he fought, and how he reigned, behold they are written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel.

20 यारोबामले बाइस वर्ष शासन गरे, र त्यसपछि तिनी आफ्ना पित्रहरूसित सुत्न गए, अनि तिनको ठाउँमा तिनका छोरा नादाब राजा भए ।

And the days that Jeroboam reigned, were two and twenty years: and he slept with his fathers: and Nadab his son reigned in his stead.

21 सोलोमनका छोरा रहबामले यहूदामा शासन गर्दै थिए । रहबाम राजा हुँदा तिनी एकचालिस वर्षका थिए । तिनले परमप्रभुले आफ्नो नाउँ राख्न इस्राएलका सबै कुलबाट चुन्नुभएको सहर यरूशलेममा सत्र वर्ष शासन गरे । तिनकी आमाको नाउँ नामा थियो जो एक अम्मोनी स्त्री थिइन् ।

And Roboam the son of Solomon reigned in Juda: Roboam was one and forty years old when he began to reign: and he reigned seventeen years in Jerusalem the city, which the Lord chose out of all the tribes of Israel to put his name there. And his mother’s name wee Naama an Ammonitess.

22 यहूदाले परमप्रभुको दृष्टिमा जे खराब छ त्यही गरे । तिनीहरूका पिता-पुर्खाहरूले गरेका पापभन्दा बढी पाप गरेर तिनीहरूले उहाँलाई डाही तुल्याए ।

And Juda did evil in the sight of the Lord, and provoked him above all that their fathers had done, in their sins which they committed.

23 किनकि तिनीहरूले पनि आफ्ना लागि प्रत्येक उच्च स्थान र हरियो रुखमुनि डाँडाका ठाउँहरू, ढुङ्गाका मूर्तिहरू र अशेराका खम्बाहरू बनाए ।

For they also built them altars, and statues, and groves upon every high hill and under every green tree:

24 त्यस देशमा झुटा धर्मसम्बन्धी वेश्याहरू पनि थिए । परमप्रभुले इस्राएलीहरूकै सामुबाट धपाउनुभएका जातिहरूले अभ्यास गरेका घिनलाग्दा कार्यहरू नै तिनीहरूले गरे ।

There were also the effeminate in the land, and they did according to all the abominations of the people whom the Lord had destroyed before the face of the children of Israel.

25 राजा रहबामको शासनकालको पाँचौँ वर्षमा मिश्रका राजा शीशकले यरूशलेमको विरुद्धमा आक्रमण गरे ।

And in the fifth year of the reign of Roboam, Sesac king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem.

26 तिनले परमप्रभुको मन्दिर र राजको महलका खजानाहरू लिएर गए । तिनले हरेक कुरो लिएर गए । तिनले सोलोमनले बनाएका सुनका ढालहरू पनि लिएर गए ।

And he took away the treasures of the house of the Lord, and the king’s treasures, and carried all off: as also the shields of gold which Solomon had made.

27 राजा रहबामले तिनको सट्टामा काँसाका ढालहरू बनाए, र राजाको महलको ढोकाहरूको रक्षा गर्ने रक्षकहरूका हातमा जिम्मा दिए ।

And Roboam made shields of brass instead of them, and delivered them into the. hand of the captains of the shieldbearers, and of them that kept watch before the gate of the king’s house.

28 राजा परमप्रभुको मन्दिरमा प्रवेश गर्दा ती रक्षकहरूले ती ढालहरू बोक्थे । त्यसपछि तिनीहरूले ती रक्षक कोठामा ल्याएर राख्ने गर्थे ।

And when the king went into the house of the Lord, they whose office it was to go before him, carried them: and afterwards they brought them back to the armoury of the shieldbearers.

29 रहबामले गरेका अरू सबै कामहरूको बारेमा के यहूदाका राजाहरूको इतिहासको पुस्तकमा लेखिएका छैनन् र?

Now the rest of the sets of Roboam, and all that he did, behold they are written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Juda.

30 रहबाम र यारोबामको बिचमा युद्ध चलिरह्‍यो ।

And there was war between Roboam and Jeroboam always.

31 यसरी रहबाम आफ्ना पित्रहरूसित सुत्न गए, र तिनीहरूसँगै दाऊदको सहरमा गाडिए । तिनकी आमाको नाउँ नामा थियो जो अम्मोनी स्त्री थिइन् । तिनको ठाउँमा तिनका छोरा अबिया राजा भए ।

And Roboam slept with his fathers, and was buried with them in the city of David: and his mother’s name was Naama an Ammonitess: and Abiam his son reigned in his stead.
