< २ इतिहास 13 >
1 राजा यरोबामको अठारौँ वर्षमा, अबियाले यहूदामा राज्य गर्न सुरु गरे ।
Now in the eighteenth year of king Jeroboam began Abijah to reign over Judah.
2 तिनले यरूशलेममा तीन वर्ष राज्य गरे । तिनकी आमा गिबाका उरीएलकी छोरी माका थिइन् । अबिया र यारोबामका बीचमा युद्ध भयो ।
He reigned three years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name also was Michaiah the daughter of Uriel of 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 Abijah set the battle in array with an army of valiant men of war, even four hundred thousand chosen men: Jeroboam also set the battle in array against him with eight hundred thousand chosen men, being mighty men of valor.
4 अबिया एफ्राइमको पहाडी देशमा भएको समारैम डाँडामा खडा भए र यसो भने, “हे यारोबाम र सारा इस्राएल हो, मेरो कुरा सुन!
And Abijah stood up on mount Zemaraim, which is in mount Ephraim, and said, Hear me, you Jeroboam, and all Israel;
5 परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्वरले औपचारिक करारद्वारा सधैँको निम्ति दाऊद र तिनका सन्तानलाई इस्राएलमाथि शासन गर्न दिनुभएको कुरा के तिमीहरूलाई थाहा छैन?
Ought you not to know that the LORD God of Israel gave the kingdom over Israel to David for ever, even 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 ।
Yet Jeroboam the son of Nebat, the servant of Solomon the son of David, is risen up, and has 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 are gathered to him vain men, the children of Belial, and have strengthened themselves against Rehoboam the son of Solomon, when Rehoboam was young and tenderhearted, and could not withstand 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 ।
And now you think to withstand the kingdom of the LORD in the hand of the sons of David; and you be a great multitude, and there are with your golden calves, which Jeroboam made you for 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 ।
Have you not cast out the priests of the LORD, the sons of Aaron, and the Levites, and have made you priests after the manner of the nations of other lands? so that whoever comes to consecrate himself with a young bullock and seven rams, the same may be a priest of them that are no 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 as for us, the LORD is our God, and we have not forsaken him; and the priests, which minister to the LORD, are the sons of Aaron, and the Levites wait on their business:
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 ।
And they burn to the LORD every morning and every evening burnt sacrifices and sweet incense: the show bread also set they in order on the pure table; and the candlestick of gold with the lamps thereof, to burn every evening: for we keep the charge of the LORD our God; but you have forsaken him.
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 ।”
And, behold, God himself is with us for our captain, and his priests with sounding trumpets to cry alarm against you. O children of Israel, fight you not against the LORD God of your fathers; for you shall not prosper.
13 तर यारोबामले आफ्नो फौजको एक दल पछिल्तिर गएर ढुकिबस्नलाई पठाएका थिए, र तिनको फौज चाहिं यहूदा, र तिनीहरूको पछाडि ढुकेर बसेका फौज थिए ।
But Jeroboam caused an ambush to come about behind them: so they were before Judah, and the ambush was behind them.
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 when Judah looked back, behold, the battle was before and behind: and they cried to the LORD, and the priests sounded with 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 ।
Then the men of Judah gave a shout: and as the men of Judah shouted, it came to pass, that God smote Jeroboam and all Israel before Abijah and Judah.
16 इस्राएलका मानिसहरू यहूदाका सामुन्नेबाट भागे, र परमेश्वरले तिनीहरूलाई यहूदाको हातमा सुम्पिदिनुभयो ।
And the children of Israel fled before Judah: and God delivered them into their hand.
17 अबिया र तिनका फौजले ठुलो सङ्ख्यामा तिनीहरूको हत्या गरे । इस्राएलका पाँच लाख चुनिएका मानिसहरू मरेर ढले ।
And Abijah and his people slew them with a great slaughter: so there fell down slain of Israel five hundred thousand chosen men.
18 यसरी इस्राएलका मानिसहरूलाई त्यस बेला पराजित गरियो । यहूदाका मानिसहरूले जिते, किनभने तिनीहरूले परमप्रभु आफ्ना पुर्खाहरूका परमेश्वरमाथि भरोसा गरे ।
Thus the children of Israel were brought under at that time, and the children of Judah prevailed, because they relied on the LORD 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 ।
And Abijah pursued after Jeroboam, and took cities from him, Bethel with the towns thereof, and Jeshanah with the towns thereof, and Ephraim with the towns thereof.
20 अबियाको शासनको समयमा यारोबामले फेरि आफ्नो शक्ति कदापि प्राप्त गर्न सकेनन् । परमप्रभुले उनलाई प्रहार गर्नुभयो, र उनी मरे ।
Neither did Jeroboam recover strength again 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 ।
But Abijah waxed mighty, and married fourteen wives, and begat twenty and two sons, and sixteen daughters.
22 अबिया बाँकी कामहरू र तिनका व्यवहार र वचनहरू इद्दो अगमवक्ताको इतिहासमा लेखिएका छन् ।
And the rest of the acts of Abijah, and his ways, and his sayings, are written in the story of the prophet Iddo.
