२ इतिहास 15
1 परमेश्वरका आत्मा ओदेदका छोरा अजर्याहमाथि आउनुभयो ।
The Spirit of God came on Azariah the son of Oded:
2 तिनी आसालाई भेट गर्न गए र तिनलाई भने, “ए आसा, यहूदा र बेन्यामीनका सबै जना, मेरा कुरा सुन्नुहोस्: जब तपाईंहरू परमप्रभुसँग रहनुहुन्छ, तब उहाँ पनि तपाईंहरूसँग हुनुहुन्छ । तपाईंहरूले उहाँलाई खोज्नुभयो भने, तपाईंहरूले उहाँलाई भेट्टाउनुहुनेछ । तर तपाईंहरूले उहाँलाई त्याग्नुभयो भने उहाँले पनि तपाईंहरूलाई त्याग्नुहुनेछ ।
and he went out to meet Asa, and said to him, "Hear me, Asa, and all Judah and Benjamin. Jehovah is with you, while you are with him; and if you seek him, he will be found by you; but if you forsake him, he will forsake you.
3 अब धेरै समयसम्म इस्राएल साँचो परमेश्वर, सिकाउने पुजारी र व्यवस्थाविना थियो ।
Now for a long time Israel was without the true God, and without a teaching priest, and without law.
4 तर जब आफ्नो कष्टमा तिनीहरू परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्वरतिर फर्के र उहाँलाई खोजे, तब तिनीहरूले उहाँलाई पाउन सके ।
But when in their distress they turned to Jehovah, the God of Israel, and sought him, he was found by them.
5 त्यसबेला यहाँबाट यात्रा गरेर टाढा जाने र यात्रा गरेर यहाँ आउने दुबैलाई शान्ति थिएन । बरू, देशमा बसोबास गर्ने सबैमाथि ठूलो संकष्ट थियो ।
In those times there was no peace to him who went out, nor to him who came in; but great troubles were on all the inhabitants of the lands.
6 तिनीहरू टुक्रा-टुक्रा पारिए, राष्ट्रको विरूद्ध राष्ट्र, र सहरको विरूद्ध सहर, किनकि परमेश्वरले तिनीहरूलाई सबै किसिमका दु: खले समस्यामा पार्नुभयो ।
They were broken in pieces, nation against nation, and city against city; for God troubled them with all adversity.
7 तर तपाईंहरू बलियो हुनुहोस्, आफ्ना हातहरू कमजोर हुन नदिनुहोस्, किनकि तपाईंका कामहरूको प्रतिफल दिइनेछ ।”
But you be strong, and do not let your hands be slack; for your work shall be rewarded."
8 जब आसाले यी कुरा, ओदेदका छोरा अजर्याह अगमवक्ताका अगमवाणी सुने, तब तिनको साहस बढ्यो, र यहूदा र बेन्यामीनका सारा देश र तिनले कब्जा गरेका एफ्राइमका पहाडी देशका सहरहरूबाट घिनलाग्दा कुराहरू सबै हटाइदिए, र तिनले परमप्रभुको मन्दिरका दलानको अगि भएको परमप्रभुको वेदी पनि मरम्मत गरे ।
When Asa heard these words, and the prophecy of Azariah the son of Oded the prophet, he took courage and put away the abominations out of all the land of Judah and Benjamin and out of the cities which he had taken from the hill country of Ephraim; and he renewed the altar of Jehovah, that was before the vestibule of Jehovah.
9 तिनले सारा यहूदा र बेन्यामीन र एफ्राइम, मनश्शे र शिमियोनबाट तिनीहरूसँग बस्नेहरूलाई भेला गरे । किनभने परमप्रभु तिनका परमेश्वर तिनीसँग हुनुभएको तिनीहरूले देखेर इस्राएलबाट तिनीहरू धेरै सङ्ख्यामा तिनीकहाँ आए ।
He gathered all Judah and Benjamin, and those who lived with them out of Ephraim and Manasseh, and out of Simeon: for they fell to him out of Israel in abundance, when they saw that Jehovah his God was with him.
10 यसैले आसाका राजकालको पन्ध्रौँ वर्षको तेस्रो महिनामा तिनीहरू यरूशलेममा एकसाथ भेला भए ।
So they gathered themselves together at Jerusalem in the third month, in the fifteenth year of the reign of Asa.
11 त्यस दिन तिनीहरूले ल्याएको लूटका मालबाट परमप्रभुलाई सात सय साँढे र सात हजार भेडाहरू र बाख्राहरू बलिदान चढाए ।
They sacrificed to Jehovah in that day, of the spoil which they had brought, seven hundred head of cattle and seven thousand sheep.
12 तिनीहरू आफ्ना सारा हृदय र आफ्ना सारा प्राणले परमप्रभु आफ्ना पुर्खाका परमेश्वरको खोजी गर्नलाई करार बाँधे ।
They entered into the covenant to seek Jehovah, the God of their fathers, with all their heart and with all their soul;
13 अनि परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्वरलाई नखोज्ने जोसुकैलाई मारिनुपर्छ भन्ने कुरामा तिनीहरूले सहमती गरेः चाहे त्यो व्यक्ति सानो होस् वा ठूलो होस्, चाहे पुरुष होस् वा स्त्री होस् ।
and that whoever would not seek Jehovah, the God of Israel, should be put to death, whether small or great, whether man or woman.
14 तिनीहरूले ठूलो सोर, चिच्च्याएर, र तुरहीहरू र नरसिङ्गा बजाउँदै परमप्रभुसँग शपथ खाए ।
They swore to Jehovah with a loud voice, and with shouting, and with trumpets, and with cornets.
15 सारा यहूदा शपथमा आनन्दित भयो, किनकि तिनीहरूले आफ्ना पूरा हृदयले शपथ खाएका थिए, र तिनीहरूले आफ्ना सारा इच्छाले परमेश्वरलाई खोजे, र तिनीहरूले उहाँलाई पाउन सके । तिनीहरूका वरिपरि सबैतिरबाट परमप्रभुले तिनीहरूलाई शान्ति दिनुभयो ।
All Judah rejoiced at the oath; for they had sworn with all their heart, and sought him with their whole desire; and he was found of them: and Jehovah gave them rest all around.
16 तिनले आफ्नी हजुरआमा माकालाई पनि राजमाताको पदबाट हटाइदिए, किनभने तिनले अशेरा देवीको खम्बोबाट घिनलाग्दो मूर्ति बनाएकी थिइन् । आसाले त्यो घिनलाग्दो मूर्तिलाई काटेर ढालिदिए, त्यसलाई धुलोपिठो पारे र किद्रोन खोल्सामा जलाइदिए ।
Also Maacah, the mother of Asa the king, he removed from being queen, because she had made an abominable image for an Asherah; and Asa cut down her image, and made dust of it, and burnt it in the Kidron Valley.
17 तर डाँडाहरूमा भएका अल्गा थानहरू इस्राएलबाट हटाइएनन् । तापनि आसाको जीवनकालभरि तिनको हृदय विश्वासयोग्य रहिरह्यो ।
But the high places were not taken away out of Israel: nevertheless the heart of Asa was perfect all his days.
18 तिनले आफ्ना पिताले अर्पण गरेका सुन, चाँदी र भाँडाकुँडाहरू परमेश्वरको मन्दिरमा ल्याए ।
He brought into God's house the things that his father had dedicated, and that he himself had dedicated, silver, and gold, and vessels.
19 आसाको राजकालको पैँतिसौँ वर्षसम्म कुनै युद्ध भएन ।
There was no more war to the five and thirtieth year of the reign of Asa.
