२ इतिहास 26
1 यहूदाका सबै मानिसले सोह्र वर्ष उमेर पुगेका उज्जियाहलाई लिए र तिनका पिता अमस्याहको ठाउँमा तिनलाई राजा बनाए ।
All the people of Judah took Uzziah, who was sixteen years old, and made him king in the place of his father Amaziah.
2 यिनले नै एलात सहरलाई पुनर्निर्माण गरे र यहूदामा फिर्ता ल्याए । त्यसपछि राजा आफ्ना पुर्खाहरूसित सुते ।
He built Eloth and restored it to Judah. After that the king slept with his fathers.
3 उज्जियाहले राज्य गर्न सुरु गर्दा तिनी सोह्र वर्षका थिए । तिनले यरूशलेममा बाउन्न वर्ष राज्य गरे । तिनकी आमाको नाउँ यकोल्याह थियो । तिनी यरूशलेमकी थिइन् ।
Uzziah was sixteen years old when he began to reign; and he reigned fifty-two years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Jechiliah, of Jerusalem.
4 तिनले हरेक कुरामा आफ्ना पिता अमस्याहको उदाहरण पच्छ्याएर परमप्रभुको दृष्टिमा जे कुरो असल थियो सो गरे ।
He did that which was right in the LORD’s eyes, according to all that his father Amaziah had done.
5 तिनलाई परमेश्वरको आदरको गर्नुपर्छ भनेर शिक्षा दिने जकरियाको समयभरि तिनले परमेश्वरको अगुवाइ खोज्नमा आफैलाई लगाए । जबसम्म तिनले परमप्रभुको खोजी गरे, तबसम्म परमेश्वरले तिनको फलिफाप गराइदिनुभयो ।
He set himself to seek God in the days of Zechariah, who had understanding in the vision of God; and as long as he sought the LORD, God made him prosper.
6 उज्जियाह बाहिर गए र पलिश्तीहरूसँग युद्ध गरे । तिनले गात, यब्ने र अश्दोदका पर्खालहरू भत्काइदिए । तिनले अश्दोदको गाउँमा र पलिश्तीहरूका बिचमा सहरहरू बनाए ।
He went out and fought against the Philistines, and broke down the wall of Gath, the wall of Jabneh, and the wall of Ashdod; and he built cities in the country of Ashdod, and amongst the Philistines.
7 परमेश्वरले तिनलाई पलिश्तीहरू, गूर-बालमा बस्ने अरबीहरू र मोनीहरूका विरुद्धमा सहायता गर्नुभयो ।
God helped him against the Philistines, and against the Arabians who lived in Gur Baal, and the Meunim.
8 अम्मोनीहरूले उज्जियाहलाई कर तिरे, र तिनको ख्याति मिश्रदेशको ढोकासम्मै पुग्यो, किनभने तिनी धेरै शक्तिशाली हुँदै गएका थिए ।
The Ammonites gave tribute to Uzziah. His name spread abroad even to the entrance of Egypt, for he grew exceedingly strong.
9 साथै उज्जियाहले यरूशलेममा कुने-ढोका, बेसी ढोका र पर्खालका कुनाको घुम्तीमा पनि धरहराहरू बनाए र तिनलाई सुरक्षित पारे ।
Moreover Uzziah built towers in Jerusalem at the corner gate, at the valley gate, and at the turning of the wall, and fortified them.
10 तिनले उजाड-स्थानमा अरू रक्षक धरहराहरू बनाए, र पहाड र बेसी दुवैमा तिनका गाईबस्तुका धेरै बथान भएको कारणले तिनले धेरै वटा कूवाहरू खने । पहाडी इलाकामा र फलवन्त खेतहरूमा तिनका खेती गर्ने किसानहरू र दाखबारी हेर्नेहरू पनि थिए, किनकि तिनले खेतीपाती मन पराउँथे ।
He built towers in the wilderness, and dug out many cisterns, for he had much livestock, both in the lowlands and in the plains. He had farmers and vineyard keepers in the mountains and in the fruitful fields, for he loved farming.
11 यसबाहेक उज्जियाहको युद्ध गर्ने एउटा फौज पनि थियो, जो फजका मुख्य सचिव यहीएल र अधिकृत मासेयाहले गणना गरेका दल-दल गरी राजाका कमाण्डरमध्ये एक जना हनन्याहको अधीनमा युद्धमा जान्थे ।
Moreover Uzziah had an army of fighting men who went out to war by bands, according to the number of their reckoning made by Jeiel the scribe and Maaseiah the officer, under the hand of Hananiah, one of the king’s captains.
12 वीर योद्धाहरूको नेतृत्व गर्ने परिवारका अगुवाहरूका जम्मा संख्या २,६०० थियो ।
The whole number of the heads of fathers’ households, even the mighty men of valour, was two thousand and six hundred.
13 तिनीहरूको अधीनमा ३,०७,५०० योद्धाहरू भएको एक विर फौज थियो जसले राजालाई शत्रुहरूका विरुद्धमा सहायता पुर्याउन ठुलो शक्तिका साथमा युद्ध गरे ।
Under their hand was an army, three hundred and seven thousand and five hundred, who made war with mighty power, to help the king against the enemy.
14 तिनीहरूका निम्ति—सबै फौजका निम्ति उज्जियाहले ढाल, भाला, टोप, कवच, धनु र घुयेंत्राहरू तयार गरे ।
Uzziah prepared for them, even for all the army, shields, spears, helmets, coats of mail, bows, and stones for slinging.
15 धरहरा र बुर्जाहरूमा प्रयोग गर्न सिपालु कारीगरहरूले बनाएका काँडहरू र ठुला ढुङ्गा हान्ने यन्त्रहरू तिनले यरूशलेममा तयार पारे । तिनको ख्याति टाढाका देशसम्म पुग्यो, किनकि तिनलाई ठुलो सहायता मिलेको थयो र यसैले तिनी धेरै शक्तिशाली भए ।
In Jerusalem, he made devices, invented by skilful men, to be on the towers and on the battlements, with which to shoot arrows and great stones. His name spread far abroad, because he was marvellously helped until he was strong.
16 तर जब उज्जियाह शक्तिशाली भए, तब तिनको हृदय अहंकारी भयो ताकि तिनले भ्रष्ट किसिमले काम गरे । तिनले परमप्रभु आफ्ना परमेश्वरको विरुद्धमा पाप गरे, किनकि धूप-वेदीमा धूप बाल्नलाई तिनी परमप्रभुको मन्दिरमा पसे ।
But when he was strong, his heart was lifted up, so that he did corruptly and he trespassed against the LORD his God, for he went into the LORD’s temple to burn incense on the altar of incense.
17 पुजारी अजर्याह र परमप्रभुका अरू असी जना साहसी पुजारीहरू राजा उज्जियाहको पछिपछि भित्र गए ।
Azariah the priest went in after him, and with him eighty priests of the LORD, who were valiant men.
18 तिनीहरूले उज्जियाहको विरोध गरे र तिनलाई भने, “ए उज्जियाह, परमप्रभुको निम्ति धूप बाल्ने काम तपाईंको होइन, तर हारूनको वंशका पुजारीहरूको हो, जसलाई धूप बाल्नलाई अभिषेक गरिएको छ । पवित्रस्थानबाट बाहिर जानुहोस्, किनकि तपाईंले विश्वासघात गर्नुभएको छ र परमप्रभु परमेश्वरबाट तपाईंले केही कदर पाउनुहुनेछैन ।”
They resisted Uzziah the king, and said to him, “It isn’t for you, Uzziah, to burn incense to the LORD, but for the priests the sons of Aaron, who are consecrated to burn incense. Go out of the sanctuary, for you have trespassed. It will not be for your honour from the LORD God.”
19 तब उज्जियाह रिसाए । तिनले धूप बाल्नलाई हातमा धुपौरो समातेका थिए । तिनी पुजारीहरूसँग रिसाएको बेलामा, ती पुजारीहरूकै सामुन्ने परमप्रभुको मन्दिरभित्र धूप-वेदीको छेउमा तिनको निधारमा कुष्ठरोग निस्क्यो ।
Then Uzziah was angry. He had a censer in his hand to burn incense, and while he was angry with the priests, the leprosy broke out on his forehead before the priests in the LORD’s house, beside the altar of incense.
20 प्रधान पुजारी अजर्याह र अरू पुजारीहरूले तिनलाई हेर्दाहेर्दै तिनको निधारमा कुष्ठरोग निस्केको तिनीहरूले देखे । तिनीहरूले तिनलाई हतार-हतार त्यहाँबाट बाहिर निकाले । वास्तवमा तिनी आफै बाहिर निस्कनलाई हतार गरे, किनभने परमप्रभुले तिनलाई प्रहार गर्नुभएको थियो ।
Azariah the chief priest and all the priests looked at him, and behold, he was leprous in his forehead; and they thrust him out quickly from there. Indeed, he himself also hurried to go out, because the LORD had struck him.
21 राजा उज्जियाह आफ्नो मर्ने दिनसम्मै कुष्ठरोगी भए । तिनी कुष्ठरोगी भएको हुनाले अलग्गै घरमा बसे, किनकि तिनलाई परमप्रभुको मन्दिरबाट बहिष्कार गरिएको थियो । तिनका छोरा योतामले राजाको महलको रेखदेख गरे, र देशका मानिसहरूमाथि शासन गरे ।
Uzziah the king was a leper to the day of his death, and lived in a separate house, being a leper; for he was cut off from the LORD’s house. Jotham his son was over the king’s house, judging the people of the land.
22 उज्जियाहका राजकालका अरू घटनाहरूको विवरण सुरुदेखि अन्त्यसम्मै आमोजका छोरा यशैया अगमवक्ताले लेखेका छन् ।
Now the rest of the acts of Uzziah, first and last, Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amoz, wrote.
23 यसरी उज्जियाह आफ्ना पुर्खाहरूसित सुते । तिनीहरूले राजाहरूका चिहानको जमिनमा पुर्खाहरूसित गाडे, किनकि तिनीहरूले भने, “तिनी एक जना कुष्ठरोगी हुन् ।” अनि तिनीपछि तिनका छोरा योताम तिनको ठाउँमा राजा भए ।
So Uzziah slept with his fathers; and they buried him with his fathers in the field of burial which belonged to the kings, for they said, “He is a leper.” Jotham his son reigned in his place.
