२ इतिहास 33

1 मनश्शेले राज्य गर्न सुरु गर्दा तिनी बाह्र वर्षका थिए । तिनले यरूशलेममा पचपन्‍न वर्ष राज्य गरे ।

Manasses was twelve years old when he began to reign, and he reigned fifty-five years in Jerusalem.

2 तिनले परमप्रभुले इस्राएलका मानिसहरूका सामुन्‍नेबाट धपाउनुभएका जातिहरूका घिनलाग्दा चालहरूमा हिंडेर तिनले परमप्रभुको दृष्‍टिमा जे खराब थियो, त्यही गरे ।

And he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord, according to all the abominations of the heathen, whom the Lord destroyed from before the face of the children of Israel.

3 तिनका पिता हिजकियाले नाश गरेका डाँडाका थानहरू तिनले फेरि बनाए, र तिनले बाल देवताहरूका निम्ति वेदीहरू खडा गरे, अशेराका खम्बाहरू बनाए, र तिनले आकाशका सबै ताराका सामु निहुरे र तिनको पुजा गरे ।

And he returned and built the high places, which his father Ezekias had pulled down, and set up images to Baalim, and made groves, and worshipped all the host of heaven, and served them.

4 “यरूशलेममा नै मेरो नाउँ सदासर्वदा रहनेछ” भनेर परमप्रभुले आज्ञा दिनुभए तापनि मनश्शेले परमप्रभुको मन्दिरमा वेदीहरू बनाए ।

And he built altars in the house of the Lord, concerning which the Lord said, In Jerusalem shall be my name for ever.

5 तिनले आकाशका सारा ताराहरूका निम्ति परमप्रभुको मन्दिरका दुवै चोकमा वेदीहरू बनाए ।

And he built altars to all the host of heaven in the two courts of the house of the Lord.

6 तिनले आफ्ना छोराहरूलाई बेन-हिन्‍नोमको बेसीमा आगोमा हिंड्न लगाए । तिनले टुनामुना गरे, जोखना हेरे, मन्त्रतन्त्र गरे र मृतहरूसँग कुरा गर्नेहरू र आत्माहरूसँग कुरा गर्नेहरूसित सल्लाह लिए । मनश्शेले परमप्रभुको दृष्‍टिमा धेरै दुष्‍ट काम गरे र तिनले उहाँलाई रिस उठाए ।

He also passed his children through the fire in the valley of Benennom; and he divined, and used auspices, and sorceries, and appointed those who had divining spirits, and enchanters, and wrought abundant wickedness before the Lord, to provoke him.

7 तिनले बनाएको खोपेका मूर्तिलाई तिनले परमेश्‍वरको मन्दिरभित्र राखे । यस मन्दिरको विषयमा परमप्रभुले दाऊद र तिनका छोरा सोलोमनसित बोल्‍नुभएको थियो । गहाँले यसो भन्‍नुभएको थियोः “मैले इस्राएलका सबै कुलमध्ये चुनेको यो मन्दिर र यरूशलेममा म सदासर्वदाको निम्ति मेरो नाउँ राख्नेछु ।

And he set the graven [image], the molten [statue], the idol which he made, in the house of God, of which God had said to David and to Solomon his son, In this house, and Jerusalem, which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, I will put my name for ever;

8 इस्राएलका मानिसहरूले मेरा सबै आज्ञा मानेर मेरो दास मोशामार्फत् मैले तिनीहरूलाई दिएका सबै व्‍यवस्‍था, विधिहरू र आदेशहरू होसियारसाथ पालन गरे भने, मैले तिनीहरूका पुर्खाहरूलाई दिएको देशबाट तिनीहरूलाई म फेरि पर हटाउनेछैनँ ।”

and I will not again remove the foot of Israel from the land which I gave to their fathers, if only they will take heed to do all things which I have commanded them, according to all the law and the ordinances and the judgments [given] by the hand of Moses.

9 परमप्रभुले इस्राएलको सामुन्‍ने नाश गर्नुभएका जातिहरूले भन्दा पनि धेरै दुष्‍ट काम गर्न मनश्शेले यहूदा र यरूशलेमका बासिन्दाहरूलाई अगुवाइ गरे ।

So Manasses led astray Juda and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, to do evil beyond all the nations which the Lord cast out from before the children of Israel.

10 मनश्शे र तिनका मानिसहरूसित परमप्रभु बोल्नुभयो, तर तिनीहरूले ध्‍यान नै दिएनन् ।

And the Lord spoke to Manasses, and to his people: but they listened not.

11 यसैले परमप्रभुले तिनीहरूका विरुद्धमा अश्शूरका राजाका फौजका कमाण्‍डरहरू ल्याउनुभयो, जसले मनश्शेलाई साङ्लाले बाँधे, हतकडीहरू लगाए र तिनलाई बेबिलोनमा लिएर गए ।

And the Lord brought upon them the captains of the host of the king of Assyria, and they took Manasses in bonds, and bound him in fetters, and brought him to Babylon.

12 जब मनश्शे कष्‍टमा परे, तब तिनले परमप्रभु आफ्ना परमेश्‍वरलाई खोजे, र आफ्ना पुर्खाहरूका परमेश्‍वरकहाँ अत्यन्तै विनम्र भएर झुके ।

And when he was afflicted, he sought the face of the Lord his God, and was greatly humbled before the face of the God of his fathers;

13 तिनले उहाँसँग प्रार्थना गरे । अनि तिनले परमेश्‍वरसँग बिन्ती चढाए र परमेश्‍वरले तिनलाई यरूशलेममा ल्‍याएर फेरि राजा बनाउनुभयो । तब मनश्शेले परमप्रभु नै परमेश्‍वर हुनुहुन्‍छ भनी जाने ।

and he prayed to him: and he listened to him, and listened to his cry, and brought him back to Jerusalem to his kingdom: and Manasses knew that the Lord he is God.

14 त्यसपछि मनश्शेले बेसीको गीहोनको पश्‍चिमपट्टिदेखि माछा ढोकासम्म दाऊदको सहरका बाहिरको पर्खाल बनाए । तिनले ओफेल डाँडा घेरे र त्यो पर्खाल धेरै अल्गो बनाए । तिनले यहूदाका किल्ला भएका सबै सहरमा साहसी फौजका कमाण्‍डरहरू पनि खटाइदिए ।

And afterward he built a wall without the city of David, from the southwest southward in the valleys and at the entrance through the fish-gate, as men go out by the gate round about, even as far as Opel: and he raised it much, and set captains of the host in all the fortified cities in Juda.

15 तिनले विदेशी देवताहरू र खोपेर बनाएका मूर्ति परमप्रभुको मन्दिरबाट हटाए, र परमप्रभुको मन्दिरको डाँडा र यरूशलेममा तिनी आफैले बनाएका सबै वेदी पनि हटाइदिए र तिनले ती सबैलाई सहरबाट बाहिर फ्याँकिदिए ।

And he removed the strange gods, and the graven [image] out of the house of the Lord, and all the altars which he had built in the mount of the house of the Lord, and in Jerusalem, and without the city.

16 तिनले परमप्रभुको वेदीको पुननिर्माण गरे र त्यसमा मेलबलि र धन्यवाद बलि चढाए । तिनले यहूदालाई परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्‍वरको सेवा गर्नू भनी हुकुम दिए ।

And he repaired the altar of the Lord, and offered upon it a sacrifice of peace-offering and thank-offering, and he told Juda to serve the Lord God of Israel.

17 तापनि मानिसहरूले डाँडाका थानहरूमा बलिदानहरू चढाउँदैरहे, तर परमप्रभु तिनीहरूका परमेश्‍वरको निम्ति मात्रै चढाए ।

Nevertheless the people still sacrificed on the high places, only to the Lord their God.

18 मनश्शेको राजकालका अरू विषयहरू, आफ्‍नो परमेश्‍वरमा तिनले चढाएको प्रार्थना र परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्‍वरको नाउँमा दर्शीहरूले तिनलाई बोलेका वचनहरू, हेर, ती इस्राएलका राजाहरूका इतिहासको पुस्तकमा लेखिएका छन् ।

And the rest of the acts of Manasses, and his prayer to God, and the words of the seers that spoke to him in the name of the God of Israel,

19 त्‍यो वर्णनमा, तिनको प्रार्थना र परमेश्‍वर कसरी त्‍यसबाट चल्‍नुभयो भन्‍ने कुराको इतिहास छ । तिनले आफैलाई विनम्र तुल्याउनु अगि तिनले गरेका सबै पाप र अविश्‍वासका काम, तिनले बनाएका डाँडाका थानहरू र अशेराका खम्बा र मूर्तिहरू— पनि यी सबै दर्शीहरूका इतिहासको पुस्तकमा लेखिएका छन् ।

behold, [they are] in the account of his prayer; and [God] listened to him. And all his sins, and his backslidings, and the spots on which he built the high places, and set there groves and graven images, before he repented, behold, they are written in the books of the seers.

20 यसरी मनश्शे आफ्ना पुर्खाहरूसित सुते, र तिनीहरूले तिनलाई तिनको आफ्नै महलमा गाडे । तिनको ठाउँमा तिनका छोरा अमोन राजा भए ।

And Manasses slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the garden of his house: and Amon his son reigned in his stead.

21 अमोनले राज्य गर्न सुरु गर्दा तिनी बाइस वर्षका थिए । तिनले यरूशलेममा दुई वर्ष राज्य गरे ।

Amon was twenty and two years old when he began to reign, and he reigned two years in Jerusalem.

22 तिनका पिता मनश्शेले गरेझैं तिनले परमप्रभुको दृष्‍टिमा जे खराब थियो, त्यही गरे । तिनले आफ्ना पिता मनश्शेले बनाएका सबै मूर्तिमा बलिदान चढाए र तिनको पुजा गरे ।

And he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord, as his father Manasses did: and Amon sacrificed to all the idols which his father Manasses had made, and served them.

23 आफ्ना पिता मनश्शेले गरेझैं तिनले परमप्रभुको सामुन्‍ने आफैलाई विनम्र पारेनन् । यसरी तिनी झन् बढी अनाज्ञाकारी भए ।

And he was not humbled before the Lord as his father Manasses was humbled; for his son Amon abounded in transgression.

24 तिनका सेवकहरूले तिनको विरुद्धमा षड्‌यन्‍त्र रचे, र तिनको आफ्नै महलमा तिनलाई मारे ।

And his servants conspired against him, and killed him in his house.

25 तर देशका मानिसहरूले राजा अमोनको विरुद्धमा षड्‌यन्‍त्र गर्ने सबैलाई मारे, र तिनको छोरा योशियाहलाई तिनको ठाउँमा तिनीहरूले राजा बनाए ।

And the people of the land killed the men who had conspired against king Amon; and the people of the land made Josias his son king in his stead.
