१ शमूएल 22

1 यसैले दाऊद त्यहाँबाट भागे र अदुल्‍लामको गुफामा गए । जब तिनका दाजुहरू र तिनका बुबाका सबै घरानाले यो सुने, तिनीहरू तिनीकहाँ तल गए ।

Dauid therefore departed thence, and saued him selfe in the caue of Adullam: and when his brethren and all his fathers house heard it, they went downe thither to him.

2 कष्‍टमा परेका हरेक, ऋणमा परेका हरेक र असन्तुष्‍ट हरेक, ती सबै तिनीकहाँ भेला भए । दाऊद तिनीहरूका कप्‍तान भए । तिनीसँग करिब चार सय जना मानिस थिए ।

And there gathered vnto him all men that were in trouble and all men that were in dette, and all those that were vexed in minde, and he was their prince, and there were with him about foure hundreth men.

3 तब दाऊद त्यहाँबाट मोआबको मिस्पामा गए । तिनले मोआबको राजालाई भने, “कृपया, परमेश्‍वरले मेरो निम्ति के गर्नुहुन्छ भनी मैले थाहा नपाएसम्‍म मेरो बुबा र मेरो आमालाई तपाईंकहाँ रहन दिनुहोस् ।”

And Dauid went thence to Mizpeh in Moab, and said vnto the King of Moab, I pray thee, let my father and my mother come and abide with you, till I knowe what God wil doe for me.

4 तिनले तिनीहरूलाई मोआबको राजासँग छोडे । दाऊद किल्लामा रहँदा तिनका बुबा र आमा पुरा समय तिनीसँगै बसे ।

And he brought them before the King of Moab, and they dwelt with him all the while that Dauid was in the holde.

5 तब गाद अगमवक्ताले दाऊदलाई भने, “तपाईंको किल्लामा नबस्‍नुहोस् । छोडेर यहूदाको देशमा जानुहोस् ।” त्यसैले दाऊद त्यहाँबाट निस्के र हारेतको वनमा गए ।

And the Prophet Gad sayde vnto Dauid, Abide not in the holde, but depart and goe into the land of Iudah. Then Dauid departed and came into the forest of Hareth.

6 दाऊदलाई तिनीसँग भएका मानिसहरूसहित भेटिए भन्‍ने कुरा शाऊलले सुने । अहिले शाऊल रामामा भएको झ्याउको रूखमुनि आफ्नो हातमा भाला लिएर बसिरहेका थिए र तिनका सेवकहरू तिनका वरिपरि खडा थिए ।

And Saul heard that Dauid was discouered, and the men that were with him, and Saul remayned in Gibeah vnder a tree in Ramah, hauing his speare in his hande, and all his seruants stoode about him.

7 शाऊलले आफ्नो वरिपरि खडा भएका सेवकहरूलाई भने, “हे बेन्यामीनका मानिसहरू हो, सुन! के यिशैका छोराले तिमीहरू हरेकलाई खेत र दाखबारीहरू दिनेछ? के उसले तिमीहरू सबैलाई हजारका कप्‍तानहरू र सयका कप्‍तानहरू बनाउनेछ,

And Saul said vnto his seruants that stood about him, Heare now, ye sonnes of Iemini, wil the sonne of Ishai giue euery one of you fields and vineyardes: will he make you all captaines ouer thousands, and captaines ouer hundreths:

8 जसको बदलामा तिमीहरू मेरो विरुद्धमा षड्यान्त्र गर्दैछौ? मेरो छोराले यिशैका छोरासँग करार गर्दा तिमीहरू कसैले पनि मलाई जानकारी दिएनौ । मेरो निम्‍ति तिमीहरू कोही पनि दुःखी छैनौ । मेरो छोराले मेरो सेवक दाऊदलाई मेरो विरुद्धमा उक्‍साएको कुरा तिमीहरू कसैले पनि मलाई जानकारी दिएनौ । आज ऊ लुक्छ र मलाई आक्रमण गर्न मलाई हेरेर बस्‍छ ।”

That all ye haue conspired against me, and there is none that tellerh mee that my sonne hath made a couenant with the sonne of Ishai? and there is none of you that is sory for me, or sheweth mee, that my sonne hath stirred vp my seruant to lie in wayte against me, as appeareth this day?

9 तब शाऊलका सेवकहरूसँगै खडा भएका एदोमी दोएगले जवाफ दियो, “यिशैका छोरा नोबमा अहीतूबका छोरा अहीमेलेककहाँ आएको मैले देखें ।

Then answered Doeg the Edomite (who was appoynted ouer the seruants of Saul) and sayd, I saw the sonne of Ishai when he came to Nob, to Ahimelech the sonne of Ahitub,

10 परमप्रभुबाट उसलाई सहायता मिलोस् भनी तिनले उसको निम्ति प्रार्थना गरे, र तिनले उसलाई खानेकुरा र पलिश्‍ती गोल्यतको तरवार दिए ।”

Who asked counsell of the Lord for him and gaue him vitailes, and he gaue him also the sword of Goliath the Philistim.

11 अनि शाऊलले अहीतूबका छोरा पुजारी अहीमेलेक, र तिनका बुबाको घरानाका सबै, नोबमा भएका पुजारीहरूलाई बोलाउन कसैलाई पठाए । तिनीहरू सबै जना राजाकहाँ आए ।

Then the King sent to call Ahimelech the Priest the sonne of Ahitub, and all his fathers house, to wit, the Priests that were in Nob: and they came all to the King.

12 शाऊलले भने, “अहितूबका छोरा सुन् ।” तिनले जवाफ दिए, “म यहाँ छु मालिक ।”

And Saul said, Heare now thou sonne of Ahitub. And he answered, Here I am, my lord.

13 शाऊलले तिनलाई भने, “तैंले, तैंले र यिशैका छोराले किन मेरो विरुद्धमा षडयन्त्र रचेको छस्, जसमा तैंले उसलाई रोटी र तरवार दिइस् र परमप्रभुले उसलाई सहायता गर्नुभएको होस् भनी प्रार्थना गरिस्, जसले गर्दा मेरो विरुद्धमा खडा हुनलाई ऊ गुप्‍तमा लुक्‍न सकोस्, जस्‍तो आज उसले गरेको छ?”

Then Saul sayde vnto him, Why haue yee conspired against me, thou and the sonne of Ishai, in that thou hast giuen him vitaile, and a sworde, and hast asked counsell of God for him, that he should rise against me, and lye in wayte as appeareth this day?

14 अनि अहीमेलकले राजालाई जवाफ दिए र भने, “तपाईंका सेवकहरूमध्ये दाऊदजस्तो विश्‍वासयोग्य, जो राजाका ज्वाइँ, तपाईंको अङ्गरक्षकका कप्‍तान र तपाईंको घरानामा आदर गरिएको अरू को छ?

And Ahimelech answered the King, and sayde, Who is so faithfull among all thy seruants as Dauid, being also the Kings sonne in lawe, and goeth at thy commandement, and is honourable in thine house?

15 तिनलाई सहायता मिलोस् भनी मैले परमेश्‍वरमा प्रार्थना गरेको के आझ नै पहिलो पटक हो र? यो मबाट दुर होस्! राजाले आफ्नो सेवक वा मेरो बुबाको सारा घरानालाई कुनै दोष नलगाउनुहोला । किनकि तपाईंको सेवकलाई यी कुरा केही पनि थाहा छैन ।”

Haue I this day first begun to aske counsell of God for him? be it farre from mee, let not the King impute any thing vnto his seruant, nor to all the house of my father: for thy seruant knew nothing of all this, lesse nor more.

16 राजाले जवाफ दिए, “अहीमेलेक, तँ र तेरा बुबाको घरानाका सबै जना निश्‍चय नै मर्नेछौ ।”

Then the King sayd, Thou shalt surely die, Ahimelech, thou, and all thy fathers house.

17 राजाले तिनका वरिपरि खडा बएका अङ्गरक्षकलाई भने, “फर्क र परमप्रभुको पुजारीहरूलाई मार् । किनभने तिनीहरूका हात पनि दाऊदसँगै छन्, र किनभने तिनी भागेका थिए भनी तिनीहरूले थाहा पाए, तर त्‍यो कुरा मलाई प्रकट गरेनन् ।” तर राजाका सेवकहरूले परमप्रभुको पुजारीहरूलाई मार्नलाई आफ्‍ना हात हालेनन् ।

And the King sayde vnto the sergeantes that stoode about him, Turne, and slay the Priestes of the Lord, because their hand also is with Dauid, and because they knewe when he fled, and shewed it not vnto mee. But the seruantes of the King would not moue their hands to fall vpon the Priests of the Lord.

18 तब राजाले दोएगलाई भने, “फर्की र पुजारीहरूलाई मार् ।” त्यसैले एदोमी दोएग फर्के र पुजारीहरूलाई आक्रमण गरे । त्यस दिन एपोद लाउने पचासी जना मानिसहरूलाई उसले मार्‍यो ।

Then the King sayde to Doeg, Turne thou and fall vpon the Priests. And Doeg the Edomite turned, and ran vpon the Priestes, and slewe that same daye foure score and fiue persons that did weare a linen Ephod.

19 उसले पुजारीहरूको सहर नोबलाई पनि तरवारले आक्रमण गर्‍यो । पुरुष र स्‍त्री, बालक र दूधे बालक, गोरुहरू र गधाहरू र भेडाहरू सबैलाई उसले तरवारले मार्‍यो ।

Also Nob the citie of the Priestes smote he with the edge of the sword, both man and woman, both childe and suckling, both oxe and asse, and sheepe with the edge of the sword.

20 तर अहीतूबका छोरा अहीमेलेकका छोराहरूमध्ये अबीयाथार नाउँका एक जना उम्के र दाऊदकहाँ गए ।

But one of the sonnes of Ahimelech the sonne of Ahitub (whose name was Abiathar) escaped and fled after Dauid.

21 शाऊलले परमप्रभुका पुजारीहरूलाई मरेको कुरा अबीयाथारले दाऊदलाई सुनाए ।

And Abiathar shewed Dauid, that Saul had slayne the Lords Priestes.

22 दाऊदले अबीयाथारलाई भने, “एदोमी दोएगलाई त्यहाँ देख्दा नै मलाई त्यसै दिन थाहा थियो, कि उसले निश्‍चय पनि शाऊललाई भन्‍नेछ । तिम्रो बुबाको परिवारको हरेकको मृत्युको निम्ति म जिम्मेवार छु ।

And Dauid sayd vnto Abiathar, I knewe it the same day, when Doeg the Edomite was there, that he would tell Saul. I am the cause of the death of all the persons of thy fathers house.

23 मसँग बस र नडराऊ । तिम्रो ज्यान लिन खोज्‍नेले मेरो पनि ज्यान मार्न खोजेको छ । तिमी मसँग सुरक्षित हुनेछौ ।”

Abide thou with me, and feare not: for he that seeketh my life, shall seeke thy life also: for with me thou shalt be in safegard.
