२ इतिहास 31
1 जब यी सबै कुरा सकिए, तब उपस्थित भएका सबै इस्राएलका मानिसहरू यहूदाका सहरहरूमा गए र तिनीहरूले ढुङ्गाका खम्बाहरू फुटाइदिए र अशेरा देवीका मूर्तिहरू काटेर ढालिदिए, अनि सारा यहूदा र बेन्यामीन, अनि एफ्राइम र मनश्शेका डाँडाका थानहरू र वेदीहरू, ती सबै नाश नभएसम्म भत्काइदिए । तब इस्राएलीहरू हरेक आआफ्ना सम्पति र आआफ्ना सहर भएको ठाउँमा फर्के ।
When all this had finished, the Israelites who were there went to the towns of Judah and smashed the pagan pillars, cut down the Asherah poles, and destroyed the high places and altars throughout Judah and Benjamin, as well as in Ephraim and Manasseh, until they had completely demolished all of them. After that they all went home to their respective towns.
2 पुजारीहरू र लेवीहरूका दलअनुसार हिजकियाले तिनीहरूका दलहरूलाई हरेक मानिसलाई, पुजारीहरू र लेवीहरू दुवैलाई आआफ्ना काममा लगाइदिए । तिनीहरूलाई होमबलि र मेलबलि चढाउन, सेवा गर्न, धन्यवाद दिन र परमप्रभुको मन्दिरका ढोकाहरूमा प्रशंसा गर्ने काम तिनले तिनीहरूलाई दिए ।
Then Hezekiah reallocated the divisions of the priests and Levites, each according to their service: presenting burnt offerings and friendship offerings, serving, giving thanks, and singing praises at the entrances of the Lord's Temple.
3 तिनले आफ्नै भण्डारबाट बिहान र बेलुकाका होमबलिका निम्ति, अनि शबाथ, औंसी र तोकिएका चाडहरूका निम्ति परमप्रभुको व्यवस्थामा लेखिएबमोजिम जुटाइदिए ।
The king contributed personally towards the morning and evening burnt offerings, and for the burnt offerings on the Sabbaths, new moons, and special feasts, as required by the Law of the Lord.
4 यसको साथै पुजारीहरू र लेवीहरू तिनले यरूशलेममा बस्ने मानिसहरूलाई तिनीहरूले दिनुपर्ने भाग देऊन् भनी हुकुम गरे ताकि तिनीहरूले परमप्रभुको व्यवस्था पालन गर्ने कुरामा ध्यान दिन सकुन् ।
He also ordered the people living in Jerusalem to provide for the priests and Levites so that they could dedicate themselves to studying and teaching the Law of the Lord.
5 हुकुम पठाउने बित्तिकै इस्राएलका मानिसहरूले आआफ्ना अन्नका अगौटे फल, नयाँ दाखमद्य, तेल, मह र जमिनका सबै उब्जनीका अगौटे फल उदारचित्तले दिए । तिनीहरूले हरेक कुराका दशांश ल्याए, जुन प्रशस्त मात्रामा भयो ।
As soon as the message went out, the Israelites generously gave the firstfruits of the grain, new wine, olive oil, and honey, and of all the crops. They brought plenty, a tithe of everything.
6 यहूदाका सहरहरूमा बस्ने इस्राएलका मानिसहरू र यहूदीहरूले पनि गाईवस्तु र भेडबाख्राको दशांश, अनि परमप्रभु आफ्ना परमेश्वरमा अर्पण गरिएका सबै थोकको दशांश ल्याएर थुपारे ।
The people of Israel now living in Judah, and the people of Judah brought a tithe of their herds and flocks. They also brought a tithe of what had been dedicated to the Lord their God, and piled them up.
7 तिनीहरूले आफ्नो योगदान तेस्रो महिनामा थुपार्न सुरु गरे, र तिनीहरूले त्यो सातौँ महिनामा सिद्ध्याए ।
They started doing this in the third month, and they finished in the seventh month.
8 जब हिजकिया र तिनका अधिकारीहरू आए र ती थुपारिएका कुरा देखे, तब तिनीहरूले परमप्रभु र उहाँको मानिस इस्राएललाई आशिष् दिए ।
When Hezekiah and his officials came and saw what had been collected, they thanked the Lord and his people Israel.
9 तब हिजकियाले यी थुपारिएका कुराहरूका विषयमा पुजारीहरू र लेवीहरूसित सोधपुछ गरे ।
Hezekiah asked the priests and Levites about what had been collected.
10 सादोकका घरानाका प्रधान पुजारी अजर्याहले जवाफ दिए र यसो भने, “मानिसहरूले परमप्रभुको मन्दिरमा आआफ्ना भेटी ल्याएको समयदेखि हामीहरूले खाएका छौं, र प्रशस्त भयो र प्रशस्त उब्रेका छन्, किनकि परमप्रभुले आफ्ना मानिसहरूलाई आशिष् दिनुभएको छ । उब्रेकाबाट यो ठुलो मात्रा यहाँ छ ।”
Azariah, the chief priest of the family of Zadok, answered, “Ever since the people began to bring their contributions into the Lord's Temple, we have had enough to eat and plenty to spare. Because the Lord has blessed his people there is so much left over.”
11 तब हिजकियाले परमप्रभुको मन्दिरमा भण्डारहरू तयार गर्न हुकुम गरे, र तिनीहरूले ती तयार गरे ।
Hezekiah ordered the construction of storehouses in the Lord's Temple. Once they were ready,
12 तब तिनीहरूले आआफ्ना भेटीहरू, दशांश र परमप्रभुका थोकहरू विश्वस्ततासाथ ल्याए । तिनको जिम्मा लिने अधिकृत लेवी कोनन्याह थिए, र तिनका भाइ शिमी तिनीपछिका दोस्रा थिए ।
the people faithfully brought in their offerings, tithes, and dedicated gifts. Conaniah the Levite was the one who was responsible for them, and his brother Shimei was second in command.
13 हिजकिया राजा र परमेश्वरको मन्दिरका अधिकारी अजर्याहले नियुक्त गरेका कोनन्याह र तिनका भाइ शिमीको मातहतमा रही तिनीहरूलाई सहायता गर्ने यहीएल, अजज्याह, नहत, असाहेल, यरीमोत, योजाबाद, एलीएल, यिस्मक्याह, महत र बनायाह थिए ।
They were in charge of the following officers: Jehiel, Azaziah, Nahath, Asahel, Jerimoth, Jozabad, Eliel, Ismachiah, Mahath, and Benaiah were overseers who assisted Conaniah and Shimei his brother. They were appointed by King Hezekiah and Azariah, the chief officer of God's Temple.
14 परमप्रभुलाई दिएका भेटीहरू र अर्पण गरिएका दानहरू बाँड्नको निम्ति परमेश्वरको निम्ति ल्याएका राजीखुशीका भेटीहरूको जिम्मा लेवी यिम्नाका छोरा पूर्व ढोकाका रक्षक कोरेलाई दिइएको थियो ।
Kore, son of Imnah, the Levite, the gatekeeper of the East Gate, was responsible for receiving the freewill offerings given to God. He also distributed the offerings given to the Lord, together with the consecrated gifts.
15 तिनको मातहतमा पुजारीहरूका सहरहरूमा अदन, मिन्यामीन, येशूअ, शमायाह, अमर्याह र शकन्याह थिए । तिनीहरूका महत्व भएका र नभएका दुबै दाजुभाइलाई दल-दलअनुसार हिस्सा बाँड्ने कामको जिम्मा तिनीहरूको थियो ।
Under him were his assistants Eden, Miniamin, Jeshua, Shemaiah, Amariah, and Shecaniah. They faithfully made the allocations to their fellow Levites in their towns, according to the priestly divisions, sharing equally with the old and young.
16 आफ्ना पुर्खाहरूका विवरणमा नाउँ भएका परमप्रभुको मन्दिरमा आफूलाई तोकिएको काममा दिनदिनै खट्ने तिन वर्ष र त्यसभन्दा बढी उमेरका सबै पुरुषहरूलाई आआफ्ना दल र जिम्माअनुसार तिनीहरूले भाग बाँडिदिए ।
They also gave allowances to the males listed in the genealogy who were three years of age or older, to all who would enter the Lord's Temple to perform their daily duties of serving according to the responsibilities of their divisions.
17 आफ्ना पुर्खाहरूका विवरणमा नाउँ लेखिएका पुजारीहरू अनि बिस वर्ष र त्यसभन्दा बढी उमेरका लेवीहरू सबैलाई आआफ्ना दल र जिम्माअनुसार तिनीहरूले भाग बाँडिदिए ।
They also gave allowances to the priests listed by family in the genealogy, and to the Levites twenty years of age or older, according to the responsibilities of their divisions.
18 तिनीहरूले सारा समुदाय भरका तिनका साना बालबालिका, पत्नीहरू र छोराछोरी सबैलाई पनि समावेस गरे, किनकि आफैलाई शुद्ध गर्नमा तिनीहरू विश्वासयोग्य थिए ।
The genealogy included all the babies, wives, sons, and daughters of the whole community, for they were faithful in making sure they dedicated themselves as holy.
19 आफ्ना सहरहरूका छेउछाउका बस्तीहरूमा वा हरेक सहरमा बस्ने हारूनका वंशका पुजारीमध्ये सबै पुरुषलाई र लेवीहरूका आफ्ना पुर्खाहरूका विवरणमा नाउँ लेखिएका पुजारीहरू सबैलाई पनि आआफ्ना भाग दिन विशेष मानिसहरू खटाइए ।
In the case of the priests, the descendants of Aaron, those who lived on the farmlands around their towns, men were appointed by name in all the towns to distribute an allocation to every male among the priests and to every Levite as listed in the genealogies.
20 हिजकियाले यहूदाभरि नै यसो गरे । तिनले परमप्रभु आफ्ना परमेश्वरका दृष्टिमा असल, ठिक र विश्वासयोग्य काम गरे ।
This is what Hezekiah did throughout the whole of Judah. He did what was good, right, and true before the Lord his God.
21 परमप्रभुका मन्दिरको सेवाका हरेक काममा, व्यवस्था, र आज्ञाहरूमा, र उहाँको खोजी गर्ने हरेक कुरा तिनले आफ्नो पूरा हृदयले गरे, र तिनी सफल भए ।
In everything he did in working for God's Temple and in following God's laws and commandments, Hezekiah was sincere in his commitment to God. So he was successful in all he did.
