१ शमूएल 19
1 आफ्ना छोरा जोनाथन र आफ्ना सबै सेवकलाई शाऊलले हुकुम गरे कि तिनीहरूले दाऊदलाई मार्नुपर्छ । तर शाऊलका छोरा जोनाथन दाऊदसँग धैरै खुसी थिए ।
And Saul spoke to Jonathan his son, and to all his servants, that they should kill David.
2 त्यसैले जोनाथनले दाऊदलाई भने, “मेरा बुबा शाऊलले तपाईंलाई मार्न खोज्दैछन् । यसकारण बिहान सजग हुनुहोस् र आफूलाई कुनै गोप्य ठाउँमा लुकाउनुहोस् ।
But Jonathan Saul’s son delighted much in David: and Jonathan told David, saying, Saul my father seeketh to kill thee: now therefore, I pray thee, take heed to thyself until the morning, and abide in a secret place, and hide thyself:
3 म बाहिर जाने छु र तपाईं भएकै ठाउँमा म मेरो बुबाको छेउमा खडा हुनेछु र म मेरो बुबासँग तपाईंको बारेमा कुरा गर्नेछु । मैले कुनै कुरा थाहा पाएँ भने, म तपाईंलाई भन्नेछु ।”
And I will go out and stand beside my father in the field where thou art, and I will talk with my father of thee; and what I see, that I will tell thee.
4 जोनथानले तिनका बुबा शाऊलसँग दाऊदको बारेमा असल कुरा गरे र उनलाई भने, “राजाले उनका सेवक दाऊदको विरुद्धमा पाप नगर्नुहोस् । किनकि तिनले तपाईंको विरुद्ध पाप गरेका छैनन् र तिनका कामहरूले तपाईंको भलो भएको छ ।
And Jonathan spoke good of David to Saul his father, and said to him, Let not the king sin against his servant, against David; because he hath not sinned against thee, and because his works have been toward thee very good:
5 किनकि तिनले आफ्नो जीवनलाई खतरामा राखे र त्यो पलिश्ती मारे । परमप्रभुले सारा इस्राएलको निम्ति ठुलो विजय ल्याउनुभयो । तपाईंले त्यो देख्नुभयो र आनन्दित हुनुभयो । तपाईंले दाऊदलाई विनाकारण मारेर निर्दोष रगतको विरुद्ध किन पाप गर्नुहुन्छ?
For he put his life in his hand, and slew the Philistine, and the LORD wrought a great salvation for all Israel: thou sawest it, and didst rejoice: why then wilt thou sin against innocent blood, to slay David without a cause?
6 शाऊलले जोनाथनको कुरा सुने । शाऊलले शपथ खाए, “जस्तो परमप्रभु जीवित हुनुहुन्छ, तिनलाई मारिनेछैन ।”
And Saul hearkened to the voice of Jonathan: and Saul swore, As the LORD liveth, he shall not be slain.
7 तब जोनाथनले दाऊदलाई बोलाए र जोनाथनले यी सबै कुरा भने । जोनाथनले दाऊदलाई शाऊलकहाँ ल्याए, र तिनी उनको उपस्थितिमा अगिझैं भए ।
And Jonathan called David, and Jonathan showed him all those things. And Jonathan brought David to Saul, and he was in his presence, as in times past.
8 फेरि पनि युद्ध भयो र दाऊद पलिश्तीहरूसँग युद्ध गर्न गए र ठुलो संहारका साथ तिनीहरूलाई पराजित गरे । उनीहरू तिनको सामुबाट भागे ।
And there was war again: and David went out, and fought with the Philistines, and slew them with a great slaughter; and they fled from him.
9 शाऊलमाथि आफ्नो हातमा भाला लिएर आफ्नो घरमा बसेको र ऊदले आफ्नो सङ्गीतको साधन बजाइरहेका बेलामा परमप्रभुको हानिकारक आत्मा तिनीमाथि आयो ।
And the evil spirit from the LORD was upon Saul, as he sat in his house with his javelin in his hand: and David played with his hand.
10 शाऊलले दाऊदलाई भालाले भित्तामा नै छेडिदिन खोजे, तर तिनी शाऊलको उपस्थितिबाट उम्के, ताकि शाऊले भाला भित्तामा रोपे । दाऊद त्यस रात भागे र बाँचे ।
And Saul sought to smite David even to the wall with the javelin; but he slipped away from Saul’s presence, and he smote the javelin into the wall: and David fled, and escaped that night.
11 शाऊलले दाऊदको घरमा तिनको चेवा गर्न दूतहरू पठाए, ताकि उनले तिनलाई बिहान् मार्न सकून् । दाऊदकी पत्नी मीकलले तिनलाई भनिन्, “तपाईंले आफ्नो जीवन आज राती बचाउनुभएन भने तपाईंलाई भोलि मारिनुहुनेछ ।”
Saul also sent messengers to David’s house, to watch him, and to slay him in the morning: and Michal David’s wife told him, saying, If thou dost not save thy life to night, to morrow thou shalt be slain.
12 त्यसैले मीकलले दाऊदलाई झ्यालबाट तल झारिन् । तिनी गए र भागे र बाँचे ।
So Michal let David down through a window: and he went, and fled, and escaped.
13 मीकलले घरानाको मूर्ती लिइन् र त्यसलाई ओछ्यानमा राखिन् । तिनले यसको शिरमा बाख्राको रौं राखिन् र त्यसलाई लुगाले छोपिन् ।
And Michal took an image, and laid it in the bed, and put a pillow of goats’ hair for his head, and covered it with a cloth.
14 जब शाऊलले दाऊदलाई ल्याउन दूतहरू पठाए, तब तिनले भनिन्, “तिनी बिरामी छन् ।”
And when Saul sent messengers to take David, she said, He is sick.
15 तब शाऊलले दाऊदलाई हेर्न दूतहरू पठाए । उनले भने, “त्यसलाई ओछ्यामा नै मकहाँ ल्याऊ, ताकि म त्यसलाई मार्नेछु ।”
And Saul sent the messengers again to see David, saying, Bring him to me in the bed, that I may slay him.
16 जब दूतहरू हेर्नलाई आए, हेर, शिरमा बाख्राको रौंको सिरानी बनाएको घरानाको मूर्ती ओछ्यानमा थियो ।
And when the messengers had come in, behold, there was an image in the bed, with a pillow of goats’ hair for his head.
17 शाऊलले मीकललाई भने, “तैंले मलाई किन छल गरिस् र मेरो शत्रुलाई जान दिइस्, ताकि ऊ बाँच्यो?” मीकलले शाऊललाई जवाफ दिइन्, “उहाँले मलाई भन्नुभयो, 'मलाई जान देऊ । मैले तिमीलाई किन मार्नु?'”
And Saul said to Michal, Why hast thou deceived me so, and sent away my enemy, that he hast escaped? And Michal answered Saul, He said to me, Let me go; why should I kill thee?
18 अब दाऊद भागे र बाँचे, र रामामा शमूएलकहाँ गए र शाऊलले तिनलाई गरेका सबै कुरा उनलाई सुनाए । त्यसपछि तिनी र शमूएल नैयोतमा बसे ।
So David fled, and escaped, and came to Samuel to Ramah, and told him all that Saul had done to him. And he and Samuel went and dwelt in Naioth.
19 शाऊललाई यसो भनेर खबर गरियो, “हेर्नुहोस्, दाऊद रामाको नैयोतमा छन् ।”
And it was told to Saul, saying, Behold, David is at Naioth in Ramah.
20 तब शाऊलले दाऊदलाई समात्न दूतहरू पठाए । अगमवक्ताहरूका समूहले अगमवाणी गरिरहेको र शमूएल तिनीहरूका अगुवाको रूपमा खडा भएका जब तिनीहरूले देखे, तब शाऊलका दूतहरूमाथि पनि परमेश्वरको आत्मा आउनुभयो र तिनीहरूले पनि अगमवाणी गरे ।
And Saul sent messengers to take David: and when they saw the company of the prophets prophesying, and Samuel standing as appointed over them, the Spirit of God was upon the messengers of Saul, and they also prophesied.
21 जब शाऊललाई यो कुरा भनियो, तब उनले अरू दूतहरूलाई पठाए, र तिनीहरूले पनि अगमवाणी गरे । त्यसैले शाऊलले फेरि पनि तेस्रो पटक दूतहरूलाई पठाए र तिनीहरूले पनि अगमवाणी गरे ।
And when it was told Saul, he sent other messengers, and they prophesied likewise. And Saul sent messengers again the third time, and they prophesied also.
22 त्यसपछि उनी पनि रामामा गए र सेकूमा भएको गहिरो इनारमा आए । उनले भने, “शमूएल र दाऊद कहाँ छन्?” कसैले भन्यो, “हेर्नुहोस्, तिनीहरू रामाको नैयोतमा छन् ।”
Then he went also to Ramah, and came to a great well that is in Sechu: and he asked and said, Where are Samuel and David? And one said, Behold, they are at Naioth in Ramah.
23 शाऊल रामाको नैयोतमा गए । तब परमेश्वरको आत्मा उनीमाथि आउनुभयो र जसै उनी जाँदै थिए, उनी रामाको नैयोतमा नपुगेसम्म नै उनले अगमवाणी गरे ।
And he went there to Naioth in Ramah: and the Spirit of God was upon him also, and he went on, and prophesied, until he came to Naioth in Ramah.
24 उनले आफ्ना लुगा फुकाले र शमूएलको सामु अगमवाणी गरे । उनी त्यो दिनभरि र रातभरि नाङ्गै बसे । यसैकारण तिनीहरूले भन्छन्, “के शाऊल पनि अगमवक्ताहरूकै माझमा छन्?”
And he stripped off his clothes also, and prophesied before Samuel in like manner, and lay down naked all that day and all that night. Therefore they say, Is Saul also among the prophets?
