< १ शमूएल 20 >

1 तब दाऊद रामाको नैयोतबाट भागे र जोनाथनकहाँ आए र भने, “मैले के गरेको छु? मेरो अपराध के हो? तपाईंको बुबाको सामु मैले गरेको पाप हो, जसको कारणले उहाँले मेरो ज्यान लिन खोज्नुहुन्छ?”
And David flees from Naioth in Ramah, and comes, and says before Jonathan, “What have I done? What [is] my iniquity? And what [is] my sin before your father, that he is seeking my life?”
2 जोनाथनले दाऊदलाई भने, “यो कुरा दूर होस् । तपाईं मर्नुहुन्‍न । मेरो बुबाले मलाई नभनी सानो वा ठुलो कुनै पनि कुरा गर्नुहुन्‍न । मेरो बुबाले यो कुरा किन लुकाउनुहुन्छ? यो यस्तो होइन?”
And he says to him, “Far be it! You do not die; behold, my father does not do anything great or small and does not uncover my ear; and why does my father hide this thing from me? This [thing] is not.”
3 तापनि दाऊदले फेरि शपथ खाए र भने, “मैले तपाईंको दृष्‍टिमा निगाह पाएको छु भनेर तपाईंको बुबाले राम्ररी थाहा पाउनुभएको छ । उहाँले भन्‍नुभएको छ, 'जोनाथनले यो कुरा थाहा पाउनुहुँदैन नत्र ऊ दुःखित हुनेछ ।' तर जस्तो परमप्रभु जीवित हुनुहुन्छ र तपाईं जीवित हुनुहुन्छ, म र मृत्यु बिच एक कदम मात्र छ ।”
And David swears again and says, “Your father has certainly known that I have found grace in your eyes, and he says, Do not let Jonathan know this, lest he is grieved; and yet, YHWH lives, and your soul lives, but—as a step between me and death.”
4 तब जोनाथनले दाऊदलाई भने, “तपाईंले मलाई जे भन्‍नुहुन्छ, म तपाईंको निम्ति त्यही गर्नेछु ।”
And Jonathan says to David, “What does your soul [desire]? Command and I do it for you.”
5 दाऊदले जोनाथनलाई भने, “भोलि औंसी हो, म राजासँग खान बस्‍नुपर्छ । तर मलाई जान दिनुहोस्, ताकि तेस्रो दिनको साँझसम्म म आफै खेतमा लुक्‍न सकूँ ।
And David says to Jonathan, “Behold, the new moon [is] tomorrow; and I certainly sit with the king to eat; and you have sent me away, and I have been hidden in a field until the third evening;
6 तपाईंका बुबाले म नहुँदा खिन्‍न महसुस गर्नुभयो भने, यसो भन्‍नुहोस्, 'दाऊदले आफ्नो सहर बेथलेहेममा जान पाऊँ भनी तिनले मसँग ज्‍यादै बिन्‍ती गरेर विदा मागे । किनभने त्‍यहाँ सबै कुलको वार्षिक बलिदान हुँदैछ ।'
if your father looks after me at all, then you have said, David earnestly asked of me to run to his city of Beth-Lehem, for there [is] a sacrifice of the days for all the family.
7 उहाँले, 'ठिकै छ' भन्‍नुहुन्‍छ भने, तपाईंको दासलाई शान्ति हुनेछ । तर उहाँ रिसले चुर हुनुभयो भने, उहाँले कुनै खराब गर्ने अठोट गर्नुभएको छ भनी जान्‍नुहोस् ।
If thus he says: Good; [there is] peace for your servant; and if it is very displeasing to him—know that the evil has been determined by him;
8 यसकारण आफ्‍नो दासमाथि दायपूर्वक व्यवहार गर्नुहोस् । किनभने तपाईंले आफ्नो दासलाई आफूसँगै परमप्रभुको करारमा ल्याउनुभएको छ । तर ममा कुनै पाप छ भने, मलाई तपाईं आफैले मार्नुहोस् । किनकि मलाई किन तपाईंको बुबाकहाँ ल्याउनुहुन्छ?”
and you have done kindness to your servant, for you have brought your servant into a covenant of YHWH with you—and if there is iniquity in me, put me to death yourself; for why [is] this [that] you bring me to your father?”
9 जोनाथनले भने, “यो कुरा तपाईंबाट दूर रहोस्! मेरा बुबाले तपाईंमाथि हानि ल्याउने अठोट गर्नुभएको छ भनी मैले थाहा पाएँ भने, के म तपाईंलाई भन्दिनँ र?”
And Jonathan says, “Far be it from you! For I certainly do not know that the evil has been determined by my father to come on you, and I do not declare it to you.”
10 तब दाऊदले जोनाथनलाई भने, “तपाईंका बुबाले तपाईंलाई कतै खस्रो किसिमको जवाफ दिनुभयो भने मलाई कसले भनिदिने?”
And David says to Jonathan, “Who declares [it] to me? Or what [if] your father answers you sharply?”
11 जोनाथनले दाऊदलाई भने, “आउनुहोस्, हामी खेतमा जाऔं ।” त्यसैले तिनीहरू दुवै जना खेतमा गए ।
And Jonathan says to David, “Come, and we go out into the field”; and both of them go out into the field.
12 जोनाथनले दाऊदलाई भने, “परमप्रभुको इस्राएलको परमेश्‍वर नै साक्षी हुनुभएको होस् । जब भोलि वा पर्सि मैले मेरो बुबालाई प्रश्‍न गरेपछि, हेर्नुहोस्, दाऊदप्रति शुभेच्छा छ भने, के म तपाईंकहाँ कसैलाई पठाउने र त्‍यो कुराको जानकारी तपाईंलाई दिनेछैन र?
And Jonathan says to David, “YHWH, God of Israel, [is my witness]—when I search out my father about [this] time tomorrow [or] the third [day], and behold, [there is] good toward David, and I do not then send to you, and have uncovered your ear—
13 मेरो बुबाले तपाईंलाई हानि गर्ने इच्छा गर्नुभएको रहेछ, र तपाईं शान्तिमा जान सक्‍नुभएको होस् भनी मैले तपाईंलाई थाहा दिइनँ, र तपाईंलाई पठाइनँ भने, परमप्रभुले जोनाथनलाई यसै र अझ बढी गर्नुभएको होस् । परमप्रभु जसरी मेरो बुबासँग हुनुहुन्‍छ, त्यसरी नै उहाँ तपाईंसँग रहनुभएको होस् ।
thus YHWH does to Jonathan, and thus He adds; when the evil concerning you is good to my father, then I have uncovered your ear, and sent you away, and you have gone in peace, and YHWH is with you, as he was with my father;
14 म जीवित रहें भने के तपाईंले मलाई परमप्रभुको करारको विश्‍वस्‍तता देखाउनुहुनेछैन र ताकि म मर्नेछैन?
and not only while I am alive do you do the kindness of YHWH with me, and I do not die,
15 परमप्रभुले दाऊदका शत्रुहरूलाई पृथ्वीको सतहबाट निमिट्यान्‍न पार्नुहुँदा पनि मेरो घरानाबाट तपाईंको करारको विश्‍वस्‍तता नहटाउनुहोला ।”
but you do not cut off your kindness from my house for all time, nor in YHWH’s cutting off the enemies of David, each one from off the face of the ground.”
16 त्यसैले जोनाथनले दाऊदको घरानासँग करार बाँधे र भने, “परमप्रभुले दाऊदका शत्रुहरूबाट लेख लिनुभएको होस् ।”
So Jonathan cuts [a covenant] with the house of David, and YHWH has sought [it] from the hand of the enemies of David;
17 जोनाथानले दाऊदप्रतिको तिनको प्रेमले गर्दा फेरि तिनले शपथ खाए, किनभने तिनलाई आफ्नो प्राणलाई झैं उनले प्रेम गरे ।
and Jonathan adds to cause David to swear, because he loves him, for he has loved him [as] the love [for] his own soul.
18 तब जोनाथनले तिनलाई भने, “भोलि औंसी हो । तपाईं नहुँदा खिन्‍न महसुस हुनेछ, किनभने तपाईंको आसन खाली हुनेछ ।
And Jonathan says to him, “Tomorrow [is] the new moon, and you have been looked after, for your seat is looked after;
19 जब तपाईं तिन दिन लुकेपछि, तुरुन्‍तै तल जानुहोस् र यो कुरा सुरु भयो भने तपाईं लुक्‍नुभएकै ठाउँमा आउनुहोस्, अनि एजेल ढुङ्गाको छेउमा बस्‍नुहोस् ।
and on the third day you certainly come down, and have come to the place where you were hidden in the day of the work, and have remained near the stone of Ezel.
20 मैले कुनै कुरालाई तारो बनाएर हानेझैं, म यसको छेउमा तिन वटा काँडहरू हान्‍नेछु ।
And I shoot three of the arrows at the side, sending out at a mark for myself;
21 तब म आफ्‍नो जवान केटोलाई यसो भन्‍नेछु र पठाउनेछु, 'जा र काँडहरू टिपेर ले ।'मैले त्यो जवानलाई, 'हेर्, काँडहरू तेरो यतापट्टि छन्, ति लिएर आइज” तब आउनुहोस् । किनभने परमप्रभु जीवित हुनुभएझैं त्यहाँ तपाईंको निम्ति सुरक्षा हुनेछ, र हानि हुनेछैन ।
and behold, I send the youth, [saying], Go, find the arrows. If I say to the youth at all, Behold, the arrows [are] on this side of you—take them and come, for [there is] peace for you, and there is no [adverse] word—[as] YHWH lives.
22 “तर मैले त्यो जवानलाई यसो भनें, 'हेर्, काँडहरू तेरो उतापट्टि छन्,' तब तपाईं आफ्नो बाटो लाग्‍नुहोस्, किनकि परमप्रभुले तपाईंलाई टाढा पठाउनुभएको छ ।”
And if thus I say to the young man, Behold, the arrows [are] beyond you—go, for YHWH has sent you away;
23 म र तपाईंले गरेको सहमतिको बारेमा, हेर्नुहोस्, परमप्रभु तपाईं र मेरो बिचमा सदासर्वदा साक्षी हुनुहुन्छ' ।”
as for the thing which you and I have spoken, behold, YHWH [is] between me and you for all time.”
24 त्यसैले दाऊदले आफूलाई खेतमा लुकाए । जब औंसी आयो, तब राजा खानलाई बसे ।
And David is hidden in the field, and it is the new moon, and the king sits down by the food to eat,
25 सदाझैं राजा आफ्नो आसनमा भित्ताको छेउमा बसे । जोनातन खडा भए, र अबनेर शाऊलको छेउमा बसे । तर दाऊदको ठाउँ खाली थियो ।
and the king sits on his seat, as time by time, on a seat by the wall, and Jonathan rises, and Abner sits at the side of Saul, and David’s place is looked after.
26 तापनि शाऊलले त्यस दिन केही पनि भनेनन्, किनभने तिनले सोचे, “तिनलाई केही भएको छ । तिनी शुद्ध छैनन् । निश्‍चय नै तिनी शुद्ध छैनन् ।”
And Saul has not spoken anything on that day, for he said, “It [is] an accident; he is not clean—surely not clean.”
27 तर औंसीको भोलि पल्ट दाऊदको ठाउँ खाली थियो । शाऊलले जोनाथनलाई भने, “यिशैका छोरा खानलाई हिजो वा आज किन आएको छैन्?”
And it comes to pass on the second day of the new moon, that David’s place is looked after, and Saul says to his son Jonathan, “Why has the son of Jesse not come in, either yesterday or today, to the food?”
28 जोनाथनले शाऊललाई जवाफ दिए, “दाऊदले बेथलेहेम जानलाई मसँग ज्‍यादै बिन्‍ती गरेर अनुमती मागे ।
And Jonathan answers Saul, “David has earnestly asked [permission] from me [to go] to Beth-Lehem,
29 तिनले भने, “कृपया मलाई जान दिनुहोस् । किनकि हाम्रो परिवारको सहरमा एउटा बलिदान छ, र म त्यहाँ हुनुपर्छ भनी मेरो दाजुले मलाई आदेश दिएका छन् । मैले तपाईंको दृष्‍टिमा निगाह पाएको छु भने, कृपया मलाई जान र आफ्‍ना दाजुहरूलाई भेट्न दिनुहोस् ।' यसकारण तिनी राजासँग खानलाई टेबलमा आएका छैनन् ।”
and he says, Please send me away, for we have a family sacrifice in the city, and my brother has given command to me himself, and now, if I have found grace in your eyes, please let me go away and see my brothers; therefore he has not come to the table of the king.”
30 तब जोनाथनको विरुद्धमा शाऊल रिस दन्‍कियो र तिनले उनलाई भने, “तँ पथभ्रष्‍ट र विद्रोही स्‍त्री को छोरो! तैंले यिशैका छोरालाई आफ्नै शर्म र आफ्नो आमाको नग्‍नताको शर्मको निम्ति रोजेको छस् भन्‍ने के मलाई थाहा छैन?
And the anger of Saul burns against Jonathan, and he says to him, “Son of a perverse [woman] of rebellion! Have I not known that you are fixing on the son of Jesse to your own shame, and to the shame of the nakedness of your mother?
31 किनकि यिशैका छोरा पृथ्वीमा रहेसम्‍म, न तँ रहेनेछस् न त तेरो राज्य नै रहनेछ । अब कसैलाई पठा र त्यसलाई मकहाँ लिएर आइज, किनकि त्यो मरिनैपर्छ ।”
For all the days that the son of Jesse lives on the ground you are not established, you and your kingdom; and now, send and bring him to me, for he [is] a son of death.”
32 जोनाथनले आफ्नो बुबा शाऊललाई जवाफ दिए, “के कराणले तिनलाई मारिनुपर्ने? तिनले के गरेका छन्?”
And Jonathan answers his father Saul and says to him, “Why is he put to death? What has he done?”
33 तब शाऊलले तिनलाई मार्न आफ्नो भालाले हाने । यसरी आफ्नो बुबाले दाऊदलाई मार्न अठोट गरेका कुरा जोनाथनलाई पक्‍का थाहा भयो ।
And Saul casts the javelin at him to strike him, and Jonathan knows that it has been determined by his father to put David to death.
34 जोनाथन रिसले आगो भएर टेबलबाट उठे र महिनाको दोस्रो दिन कुनै खाने कुरा खाएनन्, किनकि दाऊदको निम्‍ति तिनी शोकित भए, किनकि तिनका बुबाले उनको अनादर गरेका थिए ।
And Jonathan rises from the table in the heat of anger, and has not eaten food on the second day of the new moon, for he has been grieved for David, for his father put him to shame.
35 भोलिपल्‍ट बिहान दाऊदलाई भनेको समयमा भेट गर्न जोनाथन खेतमा गए र एक जना जवान मानिस तिनीसँगै थियो ।
And it comes to pass in the morning, that Jonathan goes out into the field for the appointment with David, and a little youth [is] with him.
36 तिनले आफ्‍नो जवान मानिसलाई भने, “दौडी र मैले हानेका काँडहरू खोजेर ले ।” त्‍यो जवान मानिस जाँदैगर्दा तिनले उसको पछिल्‍तिर काँड हाने।
And he says to his youth, “Now run, find the arrows which I am shooting”; the youth is running, and he has shot the arrow, causing [it] to pass over him.
37 जब जोनाथने हानेका काँडहरू भएको ठाउँमा जवान मानिस पुग्‍यो, तब जोनातनले त्‍यो जवान मानिसलाई बोलाए र भने, “के काँड तेरो पछिल्तिर छैनन् र?”
And the youth comes to the place of the arrow which Jonathan has shot, and Jonathan calls after the youth, and says, “Is the arrow not beyond you?”
38 तब जोनाथनले त्‍यो जवान मानिसलाई भने, “छिटो गर्, छिटो गर्, नबस् । त्यसैले जोनाथनको जवान केटाले काँडहरू जम्‍मा गर्‍यो र आफ्नो मालिककहाँ आयो ।
And Jonathan calls after the youth, “Speed, hurry, do not stand”; and Jonathan’s youth gathers the arrows, and comes to his lord.
39 तर त्‍यो जवान मानिसलाई अरू कुनै कुरा थाहा थिएन । जोनाथन र दाऊदले मात्र सो कुरा जान्दथे ।
And the youth has not known anything, only Jonathan and David knew the word.
40 जोनाथनले आफ्ना हतियारहरू आफ्नो जवान मानिस दिए र त्यसलाई भने, “जा, ति सहरमा लैजा ।”
And Jonathan gives his weapons to the youth whom he has and says to him, “Go, carry into the city.”
41 त्‍यो जवान मानिस जानेबित्तिकै, दाऊद ढिस्कोको पछाडिबाट उठे, जमिनमा घोप्टो परे र शिर झुकाएर तिन पटक दण्डवत गरे । तिनीहरूले एकआपसमा चुम्बन गरे र सँगसँगै रोए, अनि दाऊद झन् धेरै रोए ।
The youth has gone, and David has risen from Ezel, at the south, and falls on his face to the earth, and bows himself three times, and they kiss one another, and they weep with one another, until David exerted himself;
42 जोनाथनले दाऊदलाई भने, “शान्तिसँग जानुहोस्, किनभने, 'तपाईं र म, तपाईंका सन्तान र मेरा सन्तान बिचमा परमप्रभु सदाको निम्ति हुनुभएको होस्' भनी परमप्रभुको नाउँमा हामी दुवैले शपथ खाएका छौं ।” तब दाऊद उठे, र गए र जोनाथन सहरमा फर्के ।
and Jonathan says to David, “Go in peace, in that we have sworn—the two of us—in the Name of YHWH, saying, YHWH is between me and you, and between my seed and your seed—for all time”; and he rises and goes; and Jonathan has gone into the city.
