१ शमूएल 13
1 शाऊलले राज्य गर्न सुरु गर्दा तिनी तिस वर्षका थिए । तिनले इस्रालमाथि चालिस वर्ष राज्य गरेका थिए,
Saul nowe had beene King one yeere, and he reigned two yeeres ouer Israel.
2 तिनले इस्राएलका तिन हजार जना मानिसहरूलाई चुने । दुई हजार जना मानिसहरू तिनीसँगै मिकमाशमा र बेथेलको पहाडी देशमा थिए, जबकि एक हजार जना मानिसहरू बेन्यामीनको गिबामा जोनाथनसँग थिए । सिपाहीहरूमध्ये बाँकीलाई तिनले आ-आफ्नो घरमा पठाए ।
Then Saul chose him three thousand of Israel: and two thousande were with Saul in Michmash, and in mount Beth-el, and a thousande were with Ionathan in Gibeah of Beniamin: and the rest of the people he sent euery one to his tent.
3 जोनातनले गिबामा भएको पलिश्तीहरूका चौकीलाई पराजित गरे र पलिश्तीहरूले यो सुने । तब शाऊलले “हिब्रूहरूले सुनून्” भन्दै देशभरि तुरही फुके ।
And Ionathan smote the garison of the Philistims, that was in the hill: and it came to the Philistims eares: and Saul blewe the trumpet throughout all the land, saying, Heare, O yee Ebrewes.
4 शऊलले पलिश्तीहरूका चौकीलाई हराए र अझै इस्राएल पलिश्तीहरूको निम्ति दुर्गन्ध बनेका थिए भन्ने सबै इस्राएलले सुने । तब गिलगालमा शऊलकहाँ आउन सबै सिपाहरूलाई बोलाइयो ।
And al Israel heard say, Saul hath destroied a garison of the Philistims: wherefore Israel was had in abomination with the Philistims: and the people gathered together after Saul to Gilgal.
5 पलिश्तीहरू तिन हजार रथहरू, छ हजार रथ हाँक्नेहरू र समुद्र किनारको बालुवा सरी असंख्या सेनाहरू लिएर इस्राएलको विरुद्धमा लडाइँ गर्न एकसाथ भेला भए । तिनीहरू माथि आए र बेथ-आवनको पूर्वमा मिकमाशमा छाउनी हाले ।
The Philistims also gathered themselues together to fight with Israel, thirty thousand charets, and sixe thousande horsemen: for the people was like the sand which is by the seas side in multitude, and came vp, and pitched in Michmash Eastward from Beth-auen.
6 जब इस्राएलका मानिसहरूले आफूहरू कष्टमा परेको देखे, किनभने मानिसहरू व्याकुल थिए, मानिसहरू ओढारहरूतिर, झाडीहरूभित्र, चट्टानहरूमा, इनारहरूमा र खाल्डोहरूमा लुके ।
And when the men of Israel saw that they were in a strait (for the people were in distresse) the people hid themselues in caues, and in holdes, and in rockes, and in towres, and in pittes.
7 केही हिब्रूहरू यर्दन पारि गाद र गिलादको भूभागतिर गए । तर शाऊल अझ पनि गिगालमा नै थिए र सबै मानिसहरू डरले काम्दै तिनको पछि लागे ।
And some of the Ebrewes went ouer Iorden vnto the lande of Gad and Gilead: and Saul was yet in Gilgal, and al the people for feare followed him.
8 तिनले शमूएलले तोकेका समय सात दिनसम्म पर्खे । तर शमूएल गिलगालमा आएनन् र मानिसहरू शाऊलदेखि तितरबितर भइरहेका थिए ।
And he taried seuen daies, according vnto the time that Samuel had appointed: but Samuel came not to Gilgal, therefore the people were scattered from him.
9 शाऊलले भने, “मलाई होमबलि र मेलबलि ल्याओ ।” अनि तिनले होमबलि चढाए ।
And Saul sayde, Bring a burnt offering to me and peace offrings: and he offered a burnt offering.
10 तिनले होमबलि चढाउन सिद्ध्याउने बित्तिकै शमूएल आइपुगे । शाऊल तिनलाई भेट्न र अभिवादन गर्न निस्के ।
And assoone as hee had made an ende of offering the burnt offering, beholde, Samuel came: and Saul went foorth to meete him, to salute him.
11 त्यसपछि शमूएलले भने, “तपाईंले यो के गर्नुभएको?” शाऊलले जवाफ दिए, “जब मानिसहरूले मलाई छोडिरहेको मैले देखें र तोकिएको समयभित्र तपाईं आउनुभएन र पलिश्तीहरू मिकमाशमा भेला भएका थिए,
And Samuel saide, What hast thou done? Then Saul saide, Because I sawe that the people was scattred from me, and that thou camest not within the daies appoynted, and that the Philistims gathered themselues together to Michmash,
12 मैले भने, 'अब पलिश्तीहरू गिलगालमा मेरो विरुद्धमा आउनेछन् र मैले परमप्रभुको निगाह खोजेको छैन ।' त्यसैले होमबलि चढाउन मैले आफैलाई दवाव दिएँ ।”
Therefore said I, The Philistims will come downe nowe vpon me to Gilgal, and I haue not made supplication vnto the Lord. I was bolde therefore and offred a burnt offring.
13 तब शमूएलले शाऊललाई भने, “तपाईंले मूर्खतापूर्वक काम गर्नुभएको छ । परमप्रभु आफ्ना परमेश्वरले दिनुभएको आज्ञा तपाईंले पालन गर्नुभएको छैन । त्यसो गरेको भए परमप्रभुले इस्राएलमाथि तपाईंको शासन सदाको निम्ति स्थापित गर्नुहुनेथियो ।
And Samuel saide to Saul, Thou hast done foolishly: thou hast not kept the commandement of the Lord thy God, which he commanded thee: for the Lord had nowe stablished thy kingdome vpon Israel for euer.
14 तर अब तपाईंको शासनले निरन्तरता पाउनेछैन । परमप्रभुले आफ्नोजस्तो हृदय भएको एक जना मानिसको खोजी गर्नुभएको छ र परमप्रभुले आफ्ना मानिसहरूका शासक हुन तिनलाई नियुक्त गर्नुभएको छ, किनभने उहाँले तपाईंलाई दिनुभएको आज्ञा तपाईंले पालन गर्नुभएको छैन ।”
But nowe thy kingdom shall not continue: the Lord hath sought him a man after his owne heart, and the Lord hath commanded him to be gouernour ouer his people, because thou hast not kept that which the Lord had commanded thee.
15 तब शमूएल उठे र गिलगालबाट बेन्यामीनको गिबातिर गए । तब शाऊलले आफूसँग भएका मानिसहरूको गन्ती गरे, तिनीहरू झण्डै छ सय जना मानिसहरू थिए ।
And Samuel arose, and gate him vp from Gilgal in Gibeah of Beniamin: and Saul nombred the people that were found with him, about sixe hundreth men.
16 शाऊल, तिनको छोरा जोनाथन र तिनीहरूसँग भएका मानिसहरू बेन्यामीनको गिबामा नै बसे । तर पलिश्तीहरूले मिकमाशमा छाउनी हाले ।
And Saul and Ionathan his sonne, and the people that were found with them, had their abiding in Gibeah of Beniamin: but the Philistims pitched in Michmash.
17 पलिश्तीहरूका छाउनीबाट लुट्ने तिन समूह आए । एउटा समूह शूआलको भूमि ओप्रातिर लागे ।
And there came out of the hoste of the Philistims three bandes to destroie, one bande turned vnto the way of Ophrah vnto the lande of Shual,
18 अर्को समूह बेथ-होरोनतिर गए र अर्को समूह उजाड-स्थानतिर सबोईंको बेंसी देखिने सिमानातिर लागे ।
And another bad turned toward the way to Beth-horon, and the third band turned toward the way of the coast that looketh toward the valley of Zeboim, towarde the wildernesse.
19 इस्राएलभरि कुनै फलामको काम गर्ने मानिसहरू भेट्टाउन सकिंदैनथ्यौ, किनभने पलिश्तीहरूले भने, “नत्रता हिब्रूहरूले आफ्ना निम्ति भालाहरू र तरवारहरू बनाउँछन् ।”
Then there was no smith founde throughout all the land of Israel: for the Philistims sayde, Lest the Ebrewes make them swordes or speares.
20 तर इस्राएलका सबै मानिसहरू आ-आफ्ना फाली, कोदालो, बन्चरो र हँसिया अर्जाप्न तल पलिश्तीहरूकहाँ जाने गर्थे ।
Wherefore all ye Israelites went downe to the Philistims, to sharpen euery man his share, his mattocke, and his axe, and his weeding hooke.
21 फाली र कोदालो अर्जाप्नको निम्ति दुई तिहाइ शेकेल अनि बन्चरो अर्जाप्नको र फाली अडाउने करुवा सोझ्याउन एक तीहाइ शेकेल ज्याला थियो ।
Yet they had a file for the shares, and for the mattockes, and for the picke forkes, and for the axes, and for to sharpen the goades.
22 त्यसैले युद्धको दिनमा शाऊल र जोनाथनसँग भएका सिपाहरूका हातमा कुनै तरवार वा बाला थिएन । शाऊल र तिनका छोरा जोनाथनसँग मात्र ती थिए ।
So whe the day of battell was come, there was neither sworde nor speare founde in the handes of any of the people that were with Saul and with Ionathan: but onely with Saul and Ionathan his sonne was there founde.
23 पलिश्तीहरूको फौज मिकमाशको घाटीमा गयो ।
And the garison of the Philistims came out to the passage of Michmash.
