< २ इतिहास 10 >

1 रहबाम शकेममा गए, किनकि सारा इस्राएल तिनलाई राजा तुल्‍याउन शकेममा आइरहेका थिए ।
Rehoboam went to Shechem, for all Israel had come to Shechem to make him king.
2 जब नबातका छोरा यारोबामले यो कुरा सुने (किनकि तिनी मिश्रदेशमा थिए, जहाँ तिनी सोलोमन राजादेखि भागेर गएका थिए), तब तिनी मिश्रदेशबाट फर्के ।
When Jeroboam the son of Nebat heard of it (for he was in Egypt, where he had fled from the presence of King Solomon), Jeroboam returned out of Egypt.
3 यसैले तिनीहरूले मानिस पठाए र तिनलाई बोलाए, र रहबाम र सबै इस्राएल आए । तिनीहरूले रहबामसित कुरा गरे र भने,
They sent and called him; and Jeroboam and all Israel came, and they spoke to Rehoboam, saying,
4 “तपाईंका बुबाले हाम्रो जुवा गाह्रो बनाउनुभयो । यसकारण, अब तपाईंका बुबाको कठोर कामलाई सजिलो बनाउनुहोस्, र उहाँले हामीमाथि लाद्‍नुभएको गह्रौं जुवा हलुङ्गो गरिदिनुहोस्, र हामी तपाईंको सेवा गर्नेछौं ।”
“Your father made our yoke grievous. Now therefore make the grievous service of your father and his heavy yoke which he put on us, lighter, and we will serve you.”
5 रहबामले तिनीहरूलाई भने, “तिन दिनपछि फेरि मकहाँ आओ ।” यसैले मानिसहरू गए ।
He said to them, “Come again to me after three days.” So the people departed.
6 राजा रहबामले आफ्‍नो बुबा सोलोमन जीवित छँदा तिनका सेवा गर्ने पाका मानिसहरूसँग सल्‍लाह मागे । तिनले भने, “यी मानिसलाई जवाफ दिन तपाईंहरू कस्‍तो सल्‍लाह दिनुहुन्‍छ?”
King Rehoboam took counsel with the old men, who had stood before Solomon his father while he yet lived, saying, “What counsel do you give me about how to answer these people?”
7 उनीहरूले तिनलाई यसो भने, “यी मानिसप्रति तपाईं असल हुनुभयो र तिनीहरूलाई खुसी पार्नुभयो, र तिनीहरूलाई असल वचन दिनुभयो भने, तिनीहरूले सधैं तपाईंका सेवकहरू हुनेछन्‌ ।”
They spoke to him, saying, “If you are kind to these people, please them, and speak good words to them, then they will be your servants forever.”
8 तर ती पाका मानिसले आफूलाई दिएको सल्‍लाहलाई रहबामले बेवास्‍ता गरे, र आफूसित हुर्केका र आफ्‍नो सामु खडा भएका जवान मानिसहरूका सल्‍लाह तिनले मागे ।
But he abandoned the counsel of the old men which they had given him, and took counsel with the young men who had grown up with him, who stood before him.
9 तिनले उनीहरूलाई भने, “तिमीहरू मलाई कस्‍तो सल्लाह दिन्छौ, ताकि मसित यसो भनेर कुरा गर्ने मानिसहरूलाई हामीले जवाफ दिन सकौं, ‘तपाईंका बुबाले हामीमाथि लाद्‍नुभएको गह्रौं जुवा हलुङ्गो गरिदिनुहोस्’?”
He said to them, “What counsel do you give, that we may give an answer to these people, who have spoken to me, saying, ‘Make the yoke that your father put on us lighter’?”
10 रहबामसित हुर्केका ती जवान मानिसहरूले यसो भनेर तिनीसित कुरा गरे, “तपाईंको बुबा सोलोमोनले तिनीहरूका जुवा गह्रौं बनाउनुभयो, तर तपाईंले त्‍यो हलुङ्गो बनाउनुपर्छ भन्‍ने यी मानिसलाई तपाईंले यसो भन्‍नुपर्छ । तिनीहरूलाई तपाईंले यसो भन्‍नुपर्छ, ‘मेरो कान्‍छी औंला मेरा बुबाको कम्‍मरभन्‍दा मोटो छ ।
The young men who had grown up with him spoke to him, saying, “Thus you shall tell the people who spoke to you, saying, ‘Your father made our yoke heavy, but make it lighter on us;’ thus you shall say to them, ‘My little finger is thicker than my father’s waist.
11 यसैले अब, मेरा बुबाले तिमीहरूमाथि गह्रौं जुवा बोकाउनुभए तापनि, तिमीहरूका जुवामाथि म थप्‍नेछु । मेरा बुबाले तिमीहरूलाई कोर्राले दण्‍ड दिनुहुन्‍थ्‍यो, तर म तिमीहरूलाई बिच्‍छीहरूले दण्‍ड दिनेछु’ ।”
Now whereas my father burdened you with a heavy yoke, I will add to your yoke. My father chastised you with whips, but I will chastise you with scorpions.’”
12 यसैले, “तिन दिनपछि फेरि मकहाँ आओ,” भन्‍ने राजाको हुकुमबमोजिम यारोबाम र ती सबै मानिस तेस्रो दिन रहबामकहाँ आए ।
So Jeroboam and all the people came to Rehoboam the third day, as the king asked, saying, “Come to me again the third day.”
13 अनि ती पाका मानिसका सल्लाहलाई बेवास्‍ता गरेर रहबामले तिनीहरूसँग कठोर किसिमले बोले ।
The king answered them roughly; and King Rehoboam abandoned the counsel of the old men,
14 ती जवान मानिसका सल्‍लाहको अनुसरण गरेर उनीहरूसँग तिनले यसो भनेर, “मेरा बुबाले तिमीहरूको जुवा गह्रौं बनाउनुभयो, तर म त्‍यसमा थप्‍नेछु। मेरा बुबाले तिमीहरूलाई कोर्राले दण्‍ड दिनुहुन्‍थ्‍यो, तर म तिमीहरूलाई बिच्‍छीहरूले दण्‍ड दिनेछु ।”
and spoke to them after the counsel of the young men, saying, “My father made your yoke heavy, but I will add to it. My father chastised you with whips, but I will chastise you with scorpions.”
15 यसरी राजाले ती मानिसका कुरा सुनेनन्, किनकि शीलोका अहियाहद्वारा नबातका छोरा यारोबामलाई परमप्रभुले भन्‍नुभएको वचन पूरा हुनलाई परमेश्‍वरले नै यस्‍ता घटनाहरू हुन दिनुभयो ।
So the king didn’t listen to the people; for it was brought about by God, that the LORD might establish his word, which he spoke by Ahijah the Shilonite to Jeroboam the son of Nebat.
16 जब राजाले आफ्‍ना कुरा नसुनेका सारा इस्राएलले देखे, तब तिनीहरूले जवाफ दिए र भने, “दाऊदमा हाम्रो के हिस्‍सा छ र? यिशैका छोरामा हाम्रो केही उत्तराधिकार छैन! ए इस्राएल, तिमीहरू हरेका आआफ्‍नै पालमा जानुपर्छ । अब ए दाऊद, तिम्रो आफ्‍नै घरको रेखदेख गर ।” यसैले सबै इस्राएल आआफ्‍ना पालहरूमा फर्के ।
When all Israel saw that the king didn’t listen to them, the people answered the king, saying, “What portion do we have in David? We don’t have an inheritance in the son of Jesse! Every man to your tents, Israel! Now see to your own house, David.” So all Israel departed to their tents.
17 तर यहूदाका सहरहरूमा बस्‍ने इस्राएलका मानिसहरूका सम्‍बन्‍धमा तिनीहरूमाथि रहबामले राज्‍य गरे ।
But as for the children of Israel who lived in the cities of Judah, Rehoboam reigned over them.
18 तब राजा रहबामले ज्‍यालाबिना काममा लगाइएका मानिसहरूका निरीक्षक अदोनीरामलाई पठाए, तर इस्राएलका मानिसहरूले तिनलाई ढुङ्गाले हानेर मारे । राजा रहबामचाहिं आफ्‍नो रथमा चढेर तुरुन्‍तै यरूशलेमतर्फ भागे ।
Then King Rehoboam sent Hadoram, who was over the men subject to forced labour; and the children of Israel stoned him to death with stones. King Rehoboam hurried to get himself up to his chariot, to flee to Jerusalem.
19 अनि आजको दिनसम्‍म पनि दाऊदका घरानाप्रति इस्राएलचाहिं विद्रोही भएको छ ।
So Israel rebelled against David’s house to this day.
