२ इतिहास 13
1 राजा यरोबामको अठारौँ वर्षमा, अबियाले यहूदामा राज्य गर्न सुरु गरे ।
In the eighteenth year of king Jeroboam, Abijah reigned over Judah.
2 तिनले यरूशलेममा तीन वर्ष राज्य गरे । तिनकी आमा गिबाका उरीएलकी छोरी माका थिइन् । अबिया र यारोबामका बीचमा युद्ध भयो ।
He reigned for three years in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother was Micaiah, the daughter of Uriel, from Gibeah. And there was war between Abijah and Jeroboam.
3 अबिया चार लाख छानिएका बलिया र वीर योद्धाहरू लिएर युद्ध गर्न गए । यारोबामले छानिएका बलिया र वीर आठ लाख योद्धाहरू लडाँइको निम्ति तैनाथ गरे ।
And when Abijah had undertaken the conflict, and he had with him four hundred thousand elect men, very fit for war, Jeroboam set up a battle line opposite him of eight hundred thousand men, who were also elect and very strong in warfare.
4 अबिया एफ्राइमको पहाडी देशमा भएको समारैम डाँडामा खडा भए र यसो भने, “हे यारोबाम र सारा इस्राएल हो, मेरो कुरा सुन!
Then Abijah stood upon mount Zemaraim, which was in Ephraim, and he said: “Listen to me, Jeroboam and all of Israel.
5 परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्वरले औपचारिक करारद्वारा सधैँको निम्ति दाऊद र तिनका सन्तानलाई इस्राएलमाथि शासन गर्न दिनुभएको कुरा के तिमीहरूलाई थाहा छैन?
Are you ignorant that the Lord, the God of Israel, gave David the kingship over Israel for all time, to him and to his sons, by a covenant of salt?
6 तापनि दाऊदका छोरा सोलोमनका सेवक नबातका छोरा यारोबाम उठ्यो र आफ्ना मालिकको विरुद्धमा बागी भयो ।
But Jeroboam, the son of Nabat, the servant of Solomon, son of David, rose up and rebelled against his lord.
7 केही बेकम्मा बदमाशहरू त्यसको साथमा भेला भए । तिनीहरू सोलोमनका छोरा रहबामको विरुद्धमा आए, जति बेला रहबाम कलिलै र अनुभव नभएको र तिनीहरूको सामना गर्न नसक्ने अवस्थामा थिए ।
And there were gathered to him very vain men, and sons of Belial. And they prevailed against Rehoboam, the son of Solomon. For Rehoboam was inexperienced, and he had a fearful heart, and so he was unable to resist them.
8 यसैले तिमीहरूसँग एउटा ठूलो फौज भएको हुनाले र तिमीहरूसँग देवताहरू हुनलाई यारोबामले बनाएका यी सुनका बाछाहरू तिमीहरूसँग भएको हुनाले, अब तिमीहरू दाऊदका सन्तानहरूका हातमा भएको परमप्रभुका राज्यको विरुद्धमा खडा हुने योजना गर्दछौ ।
Now therefore, you say that you are able to resist the kingdom of the Lord, which he possesses through the sons of David, and you have a great multitude of people, and gold calves, which Jeroboam made for you as gods.
9 तर के तिमीहरूले हारूनको वंशका परमप्रभुका पुजारीहरू र लेवीहरूलाई लखेट्ने र अरू देशका मानिसहरूले गरेझैं आफ्नै पुजारीहरूलाई नियुक्त गरेनौ र? जुनसुकै मानिस पुजारी भएर सेवा गर्नलाई एउटा बाछो र सात वटा भेडा लिएर आउँछ, त्यो जो देवताहरू नै होइनन्, त्यसको पुजारी बन्छ ।
And you have cast out the priests of the Lord, the sons of Aaron, as well as the Levites. And like all the peoples of the lands, you have made priests for yourselves. Anyone who is willing to come and perform the ritual by his hand, with a bull from the herd and with seven rams, is made a priest of those who are not gods.
10 तर हाम्रा बारेमा त, परमप्रभु नै हाम्रा परमेश्वर हुनुहुन्छ, र हामीले उहाँलाई त्यागेका छैनौं । हामीसँग परमप्रभुको सेवा गर्ने हारूनका सन्तानहरू पुजारीको रूपमा छन्, र आफ्नो काम गर्ने लेवीहरू छन् ।
But the Lord is our God, and we have not forsaken him. And the priests who minister to the Lord are from the sons of Aaron. And the Levites are in their proper order.
11 तिनीहरू हरेक बिहान र बेलुकी परमप्रभुको निम्ति होमबलि र सुगन्धित धूप चढ़ाउँछन् । पवित्र टेबलमा उपस्थितिको रोटीलाई मिलाएर राख्ने काम पनि तिनीहरू गर्छन् । तिनीहरू बेलुकैपिच्छे सुनको सामदानमा भएका बत्तीहरू बाल्दछन् । हामी परमप्रभु हाम्रा परमेश्वरका आज्ञा पालना गर्छौं, तर तिमीहरूले उहाँलाई त्यागेका छौ ।
Also, they offer holocausts to the Lord, each and every day, morning and evening, and incense composed according to the precept of the law, and the bread of the presence on a very pure table. And there is with us the gold lampstand with its lamps, so that they may burn continually in the evening. For certainly, we keep the precepts of the Lord our God, whom you have forsaken.
12 हेर, परमेश्वर हाम्रा शिरमा हामीसँग हुनुहुन्छ, र उहाँका पुजारीहरू तिमीहरूका विरुद्धमा खतराको संकेत दिनलाई तुरही लिएर यहाँ छन् । हे इस्राएलका मानिसहरू हो, परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका पुर्खाहरूका परमेश्वरको विरुद्धमा युद्ध नगर, किनकि तिमीहरू सफल हुनेछैनौ ।”
Therefore, God is the commander of our army, with his priests, who sound the trumpets that ring out against you. O sons of Israel, do not choose to fight against the Lord, the God of your fathers. For it is not expedient for you.”
13 तर यारोबामले आफ्नो फौजको एक दल पछिल्तिर गएर ढुकिबस्नलाई पठाएका थिए, र तिनको फौज चाहिं यहूदा, र तिनीहरूको पछाडि ढुकेर बसेका फौज थिए ।
While he was speaking these things, Jeroboam set in motion an ambush behind them. And while they stood facing the enemy, without Judah realizing it, his army circled around.
14 जब यहूदाका मानिसहरूले पछाडि हेरे, तब हेर, लडाइँ आफ्नो अगाडि र पछाडि दुवैतिर भएको देखे । तिनीहरूले परमप्रभुमा पुकारा गरे, र पुजारीहरूले आफ्ना तुरहीहरू फुके ।
And looking back, Judah saw the war threatening in front and behind, and they cried out to the Lord. And the priests began to sound the trumpets.
15 त्यसपछि यहूदाका मानिसहरूले ठुलो सोरले कराए । जब तिनीहरूले ठुलो सोरले कराए, तब परमेश्वरले यारोबाम र सबै इस्राएललाई अबिया र यहूदाको सामुन्ने प्रहार गर्नुभयो ।
And all the men of Judah shouted out. And behold, when they cried out, God terrified Jeroboam, and all of Israel who were standing in opposition to Abijah and Judah.
16 इस्राएलका मानिसहरू यहूदाका सामुन्नेबाट भागे, र परमेश्वरले तिनीहरूलाई यहूदाको हातमा सुम्पिदिनुभयो ।
And the sons of Israel fled from Judah, and the Lord delivered them into their hand.
17 अबिया र तिनका फौजले ठुलो सङ्ख्यामा तिनीहरूको हत्या गरे । इस्राएलका पाँच लाख चुनिएका मानिसहरू मरेर ढले ।
Therefore, Abijah and his people struck them with a great slaughter. And five hundred thousand strong men of Israel fell wounded.
18 यसरी इस्राएलका मानिसहरूलाई त्यस बेला पराजित गरियो । यहूदाका मानिसहरूले जिते, किनभने तिनीहरूले परमप्रभु आफ्ना पुर्खाहरूका परमेश्वरमाथि भरोसा गरे ।
And the sons of Israel were humiliated at that time. And the sons of Judah were very greatly strengthened, because they had trusted in the Lord, the God of their fathers.
19 अबियाले यारोबामलाई खेदे । तिनले उनीबाट बेथेल र त्यसका बस्ती, येशना र त्यसका बस्ती, अनि एप्रोन र त्यसका बस्तीसमेत कब्जा गरे ।
Then Abijah pursued the fleeing Jeroboam. And he seized cities from him: Bethel and her daughters, and Jeshanah with her daughters, and also Ephron and her daughters.
20 अबियाको शासनको समयमा यारोबामले फेरि आफ्नो शक्ति कदापि प्राप्त गर्न सकेनन् । परमप्रभुले उनलाई प्रहार गर्नुभयो, र उनी मरे ।
And Jeroboam no longer had the strength to resist, in the days of Abijah. And the Lord struck him, and he died.
21 तर अबियाले शक्तिशाली भए । तिनले आफ्नो निम्ति चौध जना पत्नी ल्याए, र बाइस जना छोरा र सोह्र जना छोरीका पिता भए ।
And so Abijah, having been strengthened in his authority, took fourteen wives. And he procreated twenty-two sons and sixteen daughters.
22 अबिया बाँकी कामहरू र तिनका व्यवहार र वचनहरू इद्दो अगमवक्ताको इतिहासमा लेखिएका छन् ।
Now the rest of the words of Abijah, and his ways and works, have been written very diligently in the book of Iddo, the prophet.
