२ इतिहास 30
1 हिजकियाले सबै इस्राएल र यहूदाकहाँ दूतहरू पठाए र एफ्राइम र मनश्शेलाई चिट्ठीहरू पनि लेखे ताकि तिनीहरू यरूशलेममा परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्वरको निम्ति निस्तार-चाड मान्न यरूशलेमको परमप्रभुको मन्दिरमा आउन् ।
Then sent Hezekiah unto all Israel and Judah, moreover also, letters, wrote he unto Ephraim and Manasseh, that they should come unto the house of Yahweh, in Jerusalem, —to keep a passover unto Yahweh, God of Israel.
2 किनकि राजा, तिनका अगुवाहरू र यरूशलेममा भेला भएका सबै समुदायले मिलेर सल्लाह गरी दोस्रो महिनामा निस्तार-चाड मनाउने सहमती गरे ।
Yea, the king and his rulers and all the convocation in Jerusalem, had taken counsel, —to keep the passover in the second month.
3 तिनीहरूले नियमित समयमा मनाउन सकेनन्, किनभने उत्सवको निम्ति पर्याप्त पुजारीहरूले आफूलाई शुद्ध पारेका र मानिसहरू यरूशलेममा एकसाथ भेला हुन सकेका थिएनन् ।
For they were unable to keep it at that time, —because, the priests, had not hallowed themselves in sufficient numbers, and, the people, had not gathered themselves unto Jerusalem.
4 यो प्रस्ताव राजा र सारा समुदायको दृष्टिमा असल लाग्यो ।
And the thing was right, in the eyes of the king, —and in the eyes of all the convocation.
5 यसैले तिनीहरूले बेर्शेबादेखि दानसम्मै परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्वरको निम्ति निस्तार-चाड मान्न मानिसहरू यरूशलेममा आउनैपर्छ भनी सारा इस्राएलभरि घोषणा गर्ने कुरामा सहमत भए । किनकि यसअघि लेखिएबमोजिम मानिसहरूका यति धेरै सङ्ख्याले यो चाड मानेका थिएनन् ।
So they established a decree, to make proclamation throughout all Israel, from Beer-sheba even unto Dan, that they should come in to keep a passover unto Yahweh the God of Israel, in Jerusalem, —for, not for a long time, had they kept it as written.
6 यसैले राजाको हुकुमअनुसार राजा र तिनका अगुवाहरूका पत्रहरू लिएर पत्रवाहकहरू सारा इस्राएल र यहूदाभरि गए । तिनीहरूले भने, “इस्राएलका मानिसहरू हो, अब्राहाम, इसहाक र इस्राएलका परमप्रभु परमेश्वरतिर तिमीहरू फर्क, ताकि अश्शूरका राजाहरूका हातबाट उम्कनेहरूतिर उहाँ पनि फर्कनुभएको होस् ।
The runners, therefore, went with letters from the hand of the king and his rulers, throughout all Israel and Judah, and according to the commandment of the king, saying, —Ye sons of Israel, return ye unto Yahweh, God of Abraham, Isaac and Israel, and he will return unto the remnant, that which is left to you, out of the hand of the kings of Assyria.
7 तिमीहरू आफ्ना पुर्खाहरू वा आफ्ना दाजुभाइजस्तै नहोओ, जसले परमप्रभु आफ्ना पुर्खाहरूका परमेश्वरको विरुद्धमा विश्वासघात गरे, जसले गर्दा उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई त्रासका पात्र तुल्याउनुभयो, जुन तिमीहरूले देख्छौ ।
And be not ye like your fathers, or like your brethren, who acted unfaithfully with Yahweh, God of your fathers, —who therefore delivered them up for an astonishment, as, ye yourselves, can see.
8 तिमीहरूका पुर्खाहरूझैं तिमीहरू पनि हठी नहोओ । बरू तिमीहरू आफूलाई परमप्रभुमा समर्पण गर, र उहाँले सदासर्वदाको निम्ति पवित्र पार्नुभएको उहाँको पवित्रस्थानमा प्रवेश गर, र परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्वरको आराधना गर, ताकि उहाँको भयानक क्रोध तिमीहरूबाट हटोस् ।
Now, do not stiffen your neck, like your fathers, —stretch forth the hand unto Yahweh, and enter into his sanctuary which he hath hallowed unto times age-abiding, and serve Yahweh your God, that he may turn from you the glow of his anger.
9 किनकि तिमीहरू परमप्रभुतिर फर्क्यौ भने, तिमीहरूका दाजुभाइ र तिमीहरूका छोराछोरीलाई कैद गरेर लैजानेहरूबाट तिनीहरूले दया पाउने छन्, र तिनीहरू यस देशमा फर्केर आउन पाउने छन् । किनभने परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्वर दयालु र करुणामय हुनुहुन्छ, र तिमीहरू उहाँतर्फ फर्क्यौ भने, उहाँ तिमीहरूबाट फर्कनुहुने छैन ।”
For, by your returning unto Yahweh, your brethren and your children, shall find compassion before their captors, so as to return unto this land. For, gracious and compassionate, is Yahweh your God, and will not turn away his face from you, if ye will return unto him.
10 यसैले ती पत्रवाहकहरू एफ्राइम र मनश्शेका प्रदेशहरूभरि नै सहर-सहरमा भएर जबूलूनसम्मै गए, तर मानिसहरूलाई हेरेर हाँसे र तिनीहरूको गिल्ला गरे ।
So the runners were passing from city to city throughout the land of Ephraim and Manasseh, even unto Zebulun, —but they were laughing them to scorn, and mocking them.
11 तापनि आशेर, मनश्शे र जबूलूनका कोही मानिसले आफैलाई नम्र तुल्याए र यरूशलेममा आए ।
Howbeit, some, out of Asher and Manasseh and out of Zebulun, humbled themselves, and came to Jerusalem.
12 परमप्रभुको वचनअनुसार राजा र तिनका अधिकारीहरूले दिएको हुकुम एकमत भई पालन गर्न परमेश्वरको हात यहूदाका मानिसहरूमा पनि आयो ।
Also, upon Judah, came the hand of God, to give them one heart, —to keep the commandment of the king and the rulers, as the word of Yahweh.
13 धेरै मानिसहरू, अर्थात् एउटा साह्रै ठूलो समुदाय दोस्रो महिनामा अखमिरी रोटीको चाड मान्न यरूशलेममा भेला भए ।
And there gathered themselves unto Jerusalem much people, to keep the festival of unleavened cakes, in the second month, —an exceeding large convocation.
14 तिनीहरू उठे र यरूशलेममा भएका वेदीहरू, र धूप बाल्ने सबै वेदीसमेत हटाइदिए, र तिनीहरूले तिनलाई किद्रोनको खोल्सामा फ्याँकिदिए ।
Then rose they up, and removed the altars, which were in Jerusalem, -and, all the censers, removed they, and cast them into the Kidron ravine.
15 तब तिनीहरूले दोस्रो महिनाको चौधौँ दिनमा निस्तार-चाडको थुमा मारे । पुजारीहरू र लेवीहरू साह्रै लज्जित भए । यसैले तिनीहरूले आफूलाई शुद्ध गरे, र परमप्रभुको मन्दिरमा होमबलि ल्याए ।
Then slaughtered they the passover, on the fourteenth of the second month, —and, the priests and the Levites, were put to shame, and hallowed themselves, and brought in the ascending-sacrifices of the house of Yahweh.
16 तब परमेश्वरका मानिस मोशाको व्यवस्थाले दिएको निर्देशनअनुसार तिनीहरू आआफ्नो स्थानमा दल-दल भएर खडा भए । पुजारीहरूले लेवीहरूबाट लिएको रगत वेदीमा छर्के ।
And they stood in their place, according to their regulation, according to the law of Moses the man of God, —the priests, dashing the blood, [which they received] at the hand of the Levites.
17 किनकि आफूलाई शुद्ध नपारेकाहरू समुदायमा धेरै जना थिए । यसैकारण आफैलाई शुद्ध नपारेका र परमप्रभुको सामुन्ने आआफ्नो थुमा अर्पण नगरेकाहरू सबैका निम्ति लेवीहरूले निस्तार-चाडका थुमाहरू मारे ।
For there were many in the convocation, who had not hallowed themselves, —but, the Levites, were over the slaughtering of the passover-lambs, for every one who was, not pure, to hallow him unto Yahweh.
18 एफ्राइम, मनश्शे, इस्साखार र जबूलूनबाट आएकामध्ये धेरै जनाले आफैलाई शुद्ध पारेका थिएनन्, तापनि तिनीहरूले लेखिएको निर्देशनहरूको विरुद्ध निस्तार-चाडको भोज खाए । किनकि हिजकियाले यसो भनेर तिनीहरूका निम्ति प्रार्थना गरेका थिए, “भला हुनुहुने परमप्रभुले हरेक व्यक्तिलाई क्षमा गर्नुभएको होस्
For, the multitude of the people, many out of Ephraim and Manasseh, Issachar and Zebulun, had not purified themselves, for they did eat the passover, otherwise than as was written, —for Hezekiah prayed for them, saying, May Yahweh the Good, put a propitiatory-covering about
19 जो पवित्र स्थानका शुद्धीकरणको मनकबमोजिम शुद्ध नभए तापनि परमप्रभु आफ्ना पुर्खाहरूका परमेश्वरको खोजी गर्ने सङ्कल्प गरेको छ ।”
every one who hath prepared, his heart, to seek God, even Yahweh, God of his fathers, —though not according to the purification of the sanctuary!
20 यसैले परमप्रभुले हिजकियाको प्रार्थना सुन्नुभयो, र मानिसहरूलाई निको पार्नुभयो ।
And Yahweh hearkened unto Hezekiah, and healed the people.
21 यरूशलेममा उपस्थित भएका इस्राएलका मनिसहरूले सात दिनसम्म ठुलो रमाहटको साथ अखमिरी रोटीको चाड मनाए । लेवीहरू र पुजारीहरूले ठुलो स्वरमा परमप्रभुका बाजाहरू बजाएर दिनहुँ परमप्रभुको प्रशंसा गरे ।
And so the sons of Israel who were found in Jerusalem kept the festival of unleavened cakes seven days, with great rejoicing, —and the Levites and the priests, were offering praise unto Yahweh day by day, with loud instruments, unto Yahweh.
22 परमप्रभुको सेवा बुझेका सबै लेवीलाई हिजकियाले उत्साहको वचनले बोले । यसरी मेलबलिका बलिदानहरू चढाउँदै, र परमप्रभु आफ्ना पुर्खाहरूका परमेश्वरसँग आफ्ना पापहरू स्वीकार गर्दै र तिनीहरूले चाडका सात दिनभरि खाँदै बिताए ।
And Hezekiah spake unto the heart of all the Levites who were giving good instruction respecting Yahweh, —and they did eat the appointed feast seven days, sacrificing the peace-offerings, and offering praise unto Yahweh, God of their fathers.
23 सारा समुदाय अरू सात दिनसम्म चाड मान्न सहमत भए, र तिनीहरूले रमाहटसित सो गरे ।
Then all the convocation took counsel, to keep seven days more, —and they kept seven days, with rejoicing.
24 किनकि यहूदाका राजा हिजकियाले समुदायको निम्ति एक हजार साँढे र सात हजार भेडा बलिदानको रूपमा दिए । अनि अगुवाहरूले समुदायको निम्ति एक हजार साँढे र दश हजार भेडा दिए । ठुलो संख्यामा पुजारीहरूले आफूलाई शुद्ध पारे ।
For, Hezekiah king of Judah, presented to the convocation, a thousand bullocks and seven thousand sheep, and, the rulers, presented to the convocation, a thousand bullocks and ten thousand sheep, -and, priests in great numbers, hallowed themselves.
25 यहूदाका सारा समुदाय, पुजारीहरू र लेवीहरूसमेत, अनि इस्राएलबाट आएका सबै समुदायसाथ इस्राएल र यहूदामा बसोबास गर्ने विदेशीहरूले पनि रमाहट गरे ।
So all the convocation of Judah, and the priests and the Levites, and all the convocation that came in out of Israel, rejoiced, —also the sojourners who were coming in out of the land of Israel, and the dwellers in Judah.
26 यसरी यरूशलेममा ठुलो रमाहट भयो, किनभने त्यस्तो त इस्राएलका राजा दाऊदका छोरा सोलोमनको पालोदेखि यता त्यहाँ भएको थिएन ।
Thus was there great rejoicing, in Jerusalem, —for, since the days of Solomon son of David king of Israel, there had not been the like of this, in Jerusalem.
27 तब पुजारीहरू र लेवीहरू खडा भए र मानिसहरूलाई आशीर्वाद दिए । तिनीहरूको आवाज सुनियो, र तिनीहरूका प्रार्थना स्वर्गमा परमेश्वरको बस्नुहुने पवित्र वासस्थानसम्मै पुग्यो ।
Then rose up the priests the Levites, and blessed the people, and there was a hearkening unto their voice, —and their prayer entered into his holy dwelling-place, even into the heavens.
