२ इतिहास 21
1 यहोशापात आफ्ना पुर्खाहरूसित सुते र तिनीहरूसँग दाऊदको सहरमा गाडिए । तिनका ठाउँमा तिनका छोरा यहोराम राजा भए ।
And Jehoshaphat rested with his fathers and was buried with them in the City of David. And his son Jehoram reigned in his place.
2 यहोरामका भाइहरू, यहोशापातका छोराहरू अजर्याह, यहीएल, जकरिया, अजर्याह, मिखाएल र शपत्याह थिए । यी सबै इस्राएलका राजा यहोशापातका छोराहरू थिए ।
Jehoram’s brothers, the sons of Jehoshaphat, were Azariah, Jehiel, Zechariah, Azariah, Michael, and Shephatiah; these were all sons of Jehoshaphat king of Israel.
3 तिनका बुबाले तिनीहरूलाई सुन, चाँदी र बहुमूल्य थोकहरूका ठुला उपहारहरू र यहूदाका किल्ला भएका सहरहरू पनि दिए, तर राज्यचाहिं तिनले यहोरामलाई नै दिए ।
Their father had given them many gifts of silver and gold and precious things, as well as the fortified cities in Judah; but he gave the kingdom to Jehoram because he was the firstborn.
4 जब यहोराम आफ्ना बुबाको राज्यमा उदाएका र आफैलाई राजाको रूपमा बलियोसँग स्थापित गरेका थिए, तब तिनले आफ्ना सबै भाइलाई र इस्राएलका धेरै जना अगुवालाई तरवारले मारे ।
When Jehoram had established himself over his father’s kingdom, he strengthened himself by putting to the sword all his brothers along with some of the princes of Israel.
5 यहोरामले राज्य गर्न सुरु गर्दा तिनी बत्तिस वर्षका थिए र तिनले येरूशलेममा आठ वर्ष राज्य गरे ।
Jehoram was thirty-two years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem eight years.
6 आहाबका घरानाले गरेझैं तिनी इस्राएलका राजाहरूका चालमा हिंडे, किनकि तिनले आहाबकी छोरीलाई आफ्नी पत्नीको रूपमा ल्याए, र तिनले परमप्रभुको दृष्टिमा जे खराब थियो सो गरे ।
And Jehoram walked in the ways of the kings of Israel, just as the house of Ahab had done. For he married a daughter of Ahab and did evil in the sight of the LORD.
7 तापनि दाऊदसित परमप्रभुले गर्नुभएको करारको खातिर उहाँले दाऊदको घरानालाई नाश गर्ने इच्छा गर्नुभएन । उहाँले दाऊद र तिनका सन्तानहरूलाई सधैँ जीवन दिने प्रतिज्ञा उहाँले गर्नुभएको थियो ।
Yet the LORD was unwilling to destroy the house of David, because of the covenant He had made with David, and since He had promised to maintain a lamp for David and his descendants forever.
8 यहोरामको समयमा एदोमले यहूदाको अधीनताको विरोध गर्यो, र तिनीहरूले आफ्नै राजा स्थापित गरे ।
In the days of Jehoram, Edom rebelled against the hand of Judah and appointed their own king.
9 तब यहोराम आफ्ना फौज पतिहरू र सबै रथका साथमा एदोमतिर गए । तिनी उठेर एदोमीहरूसँग युद्ध गर्दा रात परेको थियो । एदोमीहरूले तिनी र तिनका रथका फौज पतिहरूलाई घेरेका थिए ।
So Jehoram crossed into Edom with his officers and all his chariots. When the Edomites surrounded him and his chariot commanders, he rose up and attacked by night.
10 यसैले एदोम आजको दिनसम्मै यहूदाको अधीनताको विरुद्धमा छ । त्यसै बेला लिब्नाले पनि तिनको अधीनताको विरुद्धमा विद्रोह गर्यो, किनभने यहोरामले परमप्रभु आफ्ना पुर्खाहरूका परमेश्वरलाई त्यागेका थिए ।
So to this day Edom has been in rebellion against the hand of Judah. Likewise, Libnah rebelled against his rule at the same time, because Jehoram had forsaken the LORD, the God of his fathers.
11 यसबाहेक यहोरामले यहूदाका पहाडमा अल्गा ठाउँहरू पनि बनाएका थिए र तिनले यरूशलेमका बासिन्दाहरूलाई वेश्याहरूजस्तै जिउने बनाए र यहूदालाई कुमार्गमा लगाए ।
Jehoram had also built high places on the hills of Judah; he had caused the people of Jerusalem to prostitute themselves and had led Judah astray.
12 एलिया अगमवक्ताबाट यहोरामकहाँ एउटा पत्र आयो । त्यसमा लेखिएको थियो, “तपाईंका पुर्खा दाऊदका परमप्रभु परमेश्वर यसो भन्नुहुन्छ: ‘तँ आफ्ना बुबा यहोशापात चालमा चलिनस्, न त यहूदाका राजा आसाको चालमा नै चलिस्,
Then a letter came to Jehoram from Elijah the prophet, which stated: “This is what the LORD, the God of your father David, says: ‘You have not walked in the ways of your father Jehoshaphat or of Asa king of Judah,
13 तर आहाबको घरानाले गरेझैं इस्राएलका राजाहरूका चालमा चलेर आहाबको परिवारले गरेजस्तै तैंले यहूदा र यरूशलेमका बासिन्दाहरूलाई वेश्याहरूजस्तै गर्न लगाइस्, र तैंले तँभन्दा असल तेरा बुबाका परिवारका आफ्नै भाइहरू, तँभन्दा असल मानिसहरू पनि तैंले मारिस् —
but you have walked in the ways of the kings of Israel and have caused Judah and the people of Jerusalem to prostitute themselves, just as the house of Ahab prostituted itself. You have also killed your brothers, your father’s family, who were better than you.
14 हेर्, तेरा मानिसहरू, तेरा छोराछोरी, तेरी पत्नीहरू र तेरा सबै धन-सम्पत्तिमा परमप्रभुले प्रहार गर्नुहुनेछ ।
So behold, the LORD is about to strike your people, your sons, your wives, and all your possessions with a serious blow.
15 तँ आफैलाई चाहिं निको नहुने आन्द्राको रोग हुनेछ । त्यसले गर्दा दिनदिनै तेरा आन्द्रा बाहिर निस्केर आउनेछन् ।”
And day after day you yourself will suffer from a severe illness, a disease of your bowels, until it causes your bowels to come out.’”
16 परमप्रभुले यहोरामको विरुद्धमा कूशीहरूका नजिकै बस्ने पलिश्ती र अरबीहरूलाई उक्साउनुभयो ।
Then the LORD stirred against Jehoram the spirit of the Philistines and Arabs who lived near the Cushites.
17 तिनीहरूले यहूदालाई हमला गरेर आक्रमण गरे र राजाको महलमा फेला पारेका सबै धन-सम्पत्ति लिएर गए । तिनीहरूले तिनका छोराहरू र पत्नीहरू पनि लगे । कान्छा छोरा अहज्याहबाहेक तिनका कुनै छोरा पनि बाँकी रहेन ।
So they went to war against Judah, invaded it, and carried off all the possessions found in the king’s palace, along with his sons and wives; not a son was left to him except Jehoahaz, his youngest.
18 यी सबै भएपछि परमप्रभुले यहोरामलाई निको नहुने रोगले आन्द्रामा प्रहार गर्नुभयो ।
After all this, the LORD afflicted Jehoram with an incurable disease of the bowels.
19 त्यस रोगले तिनलाई केही समयसम्म सताइरह्यो । अनि दोस्रो वर्षको अन्तमा त्यही रोगले तिनका आन्द्रा बाहिर निस्के, र तिनी गम्भीर रोगले मरे । तिनको सम्मान गर्नलाई तिनका मानिसहरूले आगो बालेनन्, जस्तो तिनीहरूले तिनका पुर्खाहरूका निम्ति गरेका थिए ।
This continued day after day until two full years had passed. Finally, his intestines came out because of his disease, and he died in severe pain. And his people did not make a fire in his honor as they had done for his fathers.
20 तिनी बत्तिस वर्षको हुँदा तिनले राज्य गर्न सुरु गरेका थिए । तिनले यरूशलेममा आठ वर्ष राज्य गरे, र तिनी मर्दा कसैले पनि शोक गरेन । तिनीहरूले तिनलाई दाऊदको सहरमा गाडे, तर राजाहरूका चिहानमा होइन ।
Jehoram was thirty-two years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem eight years. He died, to no one’s regret, and was buried in the City of David, but not in the tombs of the kings.
