< १ शमूएल 10 >
1 त्यसपछि शमूएलले एक ढुङ्ग्रो तेल लिए, त्यो शाऊलको शिरमाथि खन्याए, तिनलाई चुम्बन गरे । तिनले भने, “के परमप्रभुले उहाँको उत्तराधिकारको शासक हुनलाई तपाईंलाई अभिषेक गर्नुभएको हैन र?
Then Samuel took the vial of oil, and poured it upon his head, and kissed him, and said, Is it not that Jehovah has anointed thee to be prince over his inheritance?
2 जब तपाईं आज जानुहुनेछ, बेन्यामीनको सेल्सहको इलाकामा राहेलको चिहान नजिक तपाईंले दुई जना मानिसहरू भेट्टाउनुहुनेछ । तिनीहरूले तपाईंलाई भन्नेछन्, 'तपाईंले खोजिरहेका गधाहरू भेट्टाइएका छन् । अहिले तपाईंको बुबाले गधाहरू बारेमा चिन्ता गर्न छोडेर “मेरो छोराको बारेमा म के गरौं” भन्दै तपाईंको बारेमा चिन्ता गर्दै हुनुहुन्छ ।'
When thou are departed from me today, then thou shall find two men by Rachel's sepulcher in the border of Benjamin at Zelzah. And they will say to thee, The donkeys which thou went to seek are found, and, lo, thy father has left off caring for the donkeys, and is anxious for you, saying, What shall I do for my son?
3 तब तपाईं त्यहाँबाट अगि जानुहुँदा, तपाईं तबोरको फलाँटको रूखमा आउनुहुनेछ । एक जनाले तिनवटा पाठा, अर्कोले तिन वटा रोटी र अर्कोले एक मशक दाखमद्य बोकेर बेथेलमा परमेश्वरकहाँ गइरहेका तिन जना मानिसहरूलाई तपाईंले भेट्टाउनुहुनेछ ।
Then thou shall go on forward from there, and thou shall come to the oak of Tabor. And there shall meet thee there three men going up to God to Bethel, one carrying three kids, and another carrying three loaves of bread, and another carrying a bottle of wine.
4 तिनीहरूले तपाईंलाई अभिादन गर्नेछन् र तपाईंलाई दुई वटा रोटी दिनेछन्, जुन तपाईंले तिनीहरूका हातबाट लिनुहुनेछ ।
And they will salute thee, and give thee two loaves of bread, which thou shall receive from their hand.
5 त्यसपछि तपाईं परमप्रभुको पर्वतमा आउनुहुनेछ, जहाँ पलिस्तीहरूको चौकी छ । जब तपाईं सहरमा आइपुग्नुहुनेछ, तब तपाईंले वीणा, खैंजडी, बाँसुरी र सितार अगिअगि बजाउँदै तल आइरहेको भेट्टाउनुहुनेछ । तिनीहरूले अगमवाणी गरिरहेका हुनेछन् ।
After that thou shall come to the hill of God where is the garrison of the Philistines. And it shall come to pass, when thou have come there to the city, that thou shall meet a band of prophets coming down from the high place with a psaltery, and a timbrel, and a pipe, and a harp, before them, and they will be prophesying.
6 परमप्रभुको आत्मा तपाईंमाथि आउनुहुनेछ र तिनीहरूसँगै तपाईंले पनि अगमवाणी बोल्नुहुनेछ, र तपाईं एक जना अर्कै मानिस बद्लनुहुनेछ ।
And the Spirit of Jehovah will come mightily upon thee, and thou shall prophesy with them, and shall be turned into another man.
7 त्यति बेला जब यी चिन्हहरू तपाईंमा हुनेछन्, तब तपाईंको हातले जे भेट्टाउँछ सो गर्नुहोस्, किनकि परमेश्वर तपाईंसँग हुनुहुन्छ ।
And let it be, when these signs have come to thee, that thou do as occasion shall serve thee, for God is with thee.
8 मेरो अगि तल गिलगालमा जानुहोस् । त्यसपछि म होमबलि र मेलबलि चढाउन म तपाईंकहाँ तल आउनेछु । म नआएसम्म र तपाईंले के गर्नुपर्छ भनी तपाईंलाई नदेखाएसम्म सात दिनसम्म पर्खनुहोस् ।”
And thou shall go down before me to Gilgal. And, behold, I will come down to thee, to offer burnt offerings, and to sacrifice sacrifices of peace offerings. Thou shall tarry seven days till I come to thee, and show thee what thou shall do.
9 शमूएलबाट विदा हुनलाई जब शाऊलले पिठ्युँ फर्काए, तब परमेश्वरले तिनलाई अर्कै हृदय दिनुभयो । तब ती सबै चिन्हहरू त्यसै दिन पुरा भयो ।
And it was so, that, when he had turned his back to go from Samuel, God gave him another heart. And all those signs came to pass that day.
10 जब तिनीहरू डाँडामा आए, अगमवक्ताको एक समूहले तिनलाई भेटे र परमेश्वरको आत्मा तिनीमाथि आउनुभयो ताकि तिनले उनीहरूसँगै भविष्यवाणी बोले ।
And when they came there to the hill, behold, a band of prophets met him. And the Spirit of God came mightily upon him, and he prophesied among them.
11 जब तिनलाई पहिले चिनेकाहरूले हरेकले तिनलाई अगमवक्ताहरूका साथमा अगमवाणी बोलिरहेको देखे, तब मानिसहरूले एक-आपसमा भने, “कीशका छोरालाई के भएको छ? के शाऊल अब अगमवक्ताहरूमध्ये एक जना भएछन्?”
And it came to pass, when all who knew him formerly saw, that, behold, he prophesied with the prophets, then the people said one to another, What is this that has come to the son of Kish? Is Saul also among the prophets?
12 त्यही ठाउँका एक जना मानिसले जवाफ दिए, “तब तिनका बुबा को हुन?” यही कारणले गर्दा “के शाऊल पनि अगमवक्ताहरूमध्ये एक जना भएछन्?” भन्ने भनाइ चल्यो ।
And a man from the same place answered and said, And who is their father? Therefore it became a proverb, Is Saul also among the prophets?
13 जब तिनले अगमवाणी बोलेर सके, तब तिनी उच्च स्थानमा आए ।
And when he had made an end of prophesying, he came to the high place.
14 त्यसपछि शाऊलका काकाले तिनी र तिनको सेवकलाई सोधे, “तिमीहरू कहाँ गयौ?” तिनले जवाफ दिए, “गधाहरू खोज्नलाई । जब ती भेट्टाउन नसक्ने हामीले देख्यौं, तब हामी शमूएलकहाँ गयौं ।”
And Saul's uncle said to him and to his servant, Where did ye go? And he said, To seek the donkeys, and when we saw that they were not found, we came to Samuel.
15 शऊलका काकाले भने, “शमूएलले तिमीलाई के भने कृपया मलाई भन ।”
And Saul's uncle said, Tell me, I pray thee, what Samuel said to you.
16 शऊलले आफ्नो काकालाई जवाफ दिए, “गधाहरू भेट्टाइएका छन् भनी तिनले हामीलाई प्रष्ट रूपमा भने ।” तर शमूएलले भनेका राज्यको विषयमा भने तिनले उनलाई भनेनन् ।
And Saul said to his uncle, He told us plainly that the donkeys were found. But concerning the matter of the kingdom, of which Samuel spoke, he did not tell him.
17 शमूएलले मानिसहरूलाई मिस्पामा परमप्रभुको सामु एकसाथ भेला गरे ।
And Samuel called the people together to Jehovah to Mizpah.
18 तिनले इस्राएलका मानिसहरूलाई भने, “परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्वर यसो भन्नुहुन्छः ‘मैले इस्राएललाई मिश्रदेशबाट ल्याएँ र मैले तिमीहरूलाई मिश्रीहरूका हातबाट र तिमीहरूको विरोध गर्ने सबै राज्यहरू शक्तिबाट छुटकारा दिएँ ।'
And he said to the sons of Israel, Thus says Jehovah, the God of Israel, I brought up Israel out of Egypt, and I delivered you out of the hand of the Egyptians, and out of the hand of all the kingdoms that oppressed you,
19 तर तिमीहरूका सबै विपत्तिहरू र तिमीहरूका कष्टबाट बचाउनुहुने तिमीहरूका परमेश्वरलाई आज तिमीहरूले इन्कार गरेका छौ । अनि तिमीहरूले उनलाई भनेका छौ, हामीमाथि एक जना राजा खडा गर्नुहोस् ।' अब आ-आफ्ना वंशअनुसार र कुलअनुसार आफैलाई परमप्रभुको सामु प्रस्तुत गर ।”
but ye have this day rejected your God who himself saves you out of all your calamities and your distresses, and ye have said to him, No, but set a king over us. Now therefore present yourselves before Jehovah by your tribes, and by your thousands.
20 त्यसैले शमूएलले इस्राएलका सबै कुललाई नजिक ल्याए र बेन्यामीनको कुल चुनियो ।
So Samuel brought all the tribes of Israel near, and the tribe of Benjamin was taken.
21 अनि तिनले बेन्यामीनको कुललाई आफ्ना वंशअनुसार ल्याए । अनि मत्रीको वंश चुनियो, र कीशका छोरा शाऊललाई चुनियो । तर जब तिनीहरू उनलाई खोज्न गए तब उनी भेट्टाइएनन् ।
And he brought the tribe of Benjamin near by their families, and the family of the Matrites was taken, and Saul the son of Kish was taken. But when they sought him, he could not be found.
22 तब मानिसहरूले परमेश्वरलाई अझै प्रश्न सोध्ने इच्छा गरे, “के अझै अर्को मानिस आउनै छ?” परमप्रभुले जवाफ दिनुभयो, “तिनले आफैलाई सर-सामानाका बिचमा लुकाएका छन् ।”
Therefore they asked of Jehovah further, Is there yet a man to come here? And Jehovah answered, Behold, he has hid himself among the baggage.
23 तब तिनीहरू दौडे र शाऊललाई त्यहाँबाट निकाले । जब तिनी मानिसहरू माझमा खडा भए, तब तिनी अरू कुनै पनि मानिसभन्दा तिनको कुमभन्दामाथि अग्ला थिए ।
And they ran and fetched him from there. And when he stood among the people, he was higher than any of the people from his shoulders and upward.
24 शामूएलले मानिसहरूलाई भने, “के परमप्रभुले चुन्नुभएको मानिसलाई तिमीहरूले देख्दैछौ? सबै मानिसहरूका माझमा तिनीजस्ता अरू कोही छैन ।” सबै मानिसहरू यसो भन्दै कराए, “राजा अमर रहून्” ।
And Samuel said to all the people, See ye him whom Jehovah has chosen, that there is none like him among all the people? And all the people shouted, and said, Live, O king!
25 तब शमूएलले राजाको शासनको चलन र नियमहरूका बारेमा मानिसहरूलाई भने, तिनलाई एउटा पुस्तकमा लेखे र त्यो परमप्रभुको सामु राखिदिए । अनि शमूएलले सबै मानिसलाई आ-आफ्नै घरमा पठाइदिए ।
Then Samuel told the people the manner of the kingdom, and wrote it in a book, and laid it up before Jehovah. And Samuel sent all the people away, every man to his house.
26 शाऊल पनि गिबामा आफ्नो घरमा गए र तिनको साथमा केही बलिया मानिसहरू गए, जसका हृदयहरूमा परमेश्वरले छुनुभएको थियो ।
And Saul also went to his house to Gibeah, and mighty men went with him, whose hearts God had touched.
27 तर केही बदमासहरूले भने, “यो मानिसले हामीलाई कसरी बचाउन सक्छ?” यी मानिसहरूले शऊललाई घृणा गरे र तिनलाई कुनै उपहारहरू दिएनन् । तर शाऊल शान्त बसे ।
But certain worthless fellows said, How shall this man save us? And they despised him, and brought him no present. But he held his peace.
