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 the LORD hath 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 art departed from me to-day, then thou shalt find two men by the tomb of Rachel, in the border of Benjamin at Zelzah; and they will say unto thee: The asses which thou wentest to seek are found; and, lo, thy father hath left off caring for the asses, and is anxious concerning 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 shalt thou go on forward from thence, and thou shalt come to the terebinth of Tabor, and there shall meet thee there three men going up to God to Beth-el, 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 cakes of bread; which thou shalt receive of 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 shalt come to the hill of God, where is the garrison of the Philistines; and it shall come to pass, when thou art come thither to the city, that thou shalt 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 the LORD will come mightily upon thee, and thou shalt prophesy with them, and shalt 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 are come unto thee, that thou do as thy hand shall find; 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 shalt go down before me to Gilgal; and, behold, I will come down unto thee, to offer burnt-offerings, and to sacrifice sacrifices of peace-offerings; seven days shalt thou tarry, till I come unto thee, and tell thee what thou shalt 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 thither 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 that knew him beforetime saw that, behold, he prophesied with the prophets, then the people said one to another: 'What is this that is come unto 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 one of 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 unto him and to his servant: 'Whither went ye?' And he said: 'To seek the asses; 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 unto 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 unto his uncle: 'He told us plainly that the asses were found.' But concerning the matter of the kingdom, whereof Samuel spoke, he told him not.
17 शमूएलले मानिसहरूलाई मिस्पामा परमप्रभुको सामु एकसाथ भेला गरे ।
And Samuel called the people together unto the LORD 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 unto the children of Israel: 'Thus saith the LORD, 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 saveth you out of all your calamities and your distresses; and ye have said unto Him: Nay, but set a king over us. Now therefore present yourselves before the LORD 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 the LORD further: 'Is there yet a man come hither?' And the LORD answered: 'Behold, he hath 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 thence; 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 the LORD hath chosen, that there is none like him among all the people?' And all the people shouted, and said: 'Long live the 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 the LORD. 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 there went with him the men of valour, 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 base fellows said: 'How shall this man save us?' And they despised him, and brought him no present. But he was as one that held his peace.
