< २ इतिहास 36 >
1 त्यसपछि देशका मानिसहरूले योशियाहका छोरा यहोआहाजलाई लिए र यरूशलेममा तिनका बुबाको ठाउँमा तिनलाई राजा बनाए ।
And the people of the land took Jehoahaz, son of Josiah, —and made him king instead of his father, in Jerusalem.
2 यहोआहाजले राज्य सुरु गर्दा तिनी तेइस वर्षका थिए, र तिनले यरूशलेममा तीन महिना राज्य गरे ।
Twenty-three years old, was Joahaz when he began to reign, —and, three months, reigned he in Jerusalem.
3 मिश्रदेशका राजाले यरूशलेममा तिनलाई हटाए, र देशमाथि एक सय तोडा चाँदी र एक तोडा सुनको जरिवाना लगाए ।
And the king of Egypt deposed him in Jerusalem, —and condemned the land, in a hundred talents of silver, and a talent of gold.
4 मिश्रदेशका राजाले यहोआहाजका भाइ एल्याकीमलाई यहूदा र यरूशलेममाथि राजा तुल्याए (र तिनको नाउँ यहोयाकीममा बदली गरे) । तब नेकोले तिनका दाजु यहोआहाजलाई मिश्रदेशमा लगे ।
And the king of Egypt made Eliakim his brother king over Judah and Jerusalem, and changed his name to Jehoiakim, —but Neco took, Joahaz his brother, and carried him to Egypt.
5 यहोयाकीमले राज्य गर्न सुरु गर्दा तिनी पच्चिस वर्षका थिए, र तिनले यरूशलेममा एघार वर्ष राज्य गरे । तिनले परमप्रभु आफ्ना परमेश्वरको दृष्टिमा जे खराब थियो, त्यही गरे ।
Twenty-five years old, was Jehoiakim when he began to reign, and, eleven years, reigned he in Jerusalem, —and he did the thing that was wicked in the eyes of Yahweh his God.
6 त्यसपछि बेबिलोनका राजा नबूकदनेसरले तिनलाई आक्रमण गरे र तिनलाई बेबिलोनमा लानलाई तिनलाई साङ्लाले बाँधे ।
Against him, came up Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, —and bound him in fetters of bronze, to carry him to Babylon.
7 नबूकदनेसरले परमप्रभुको मन्दिरका केही सामानहरू पनि बेबिलोनमा लगे र तिनले ती बेबिलोनको आफ्नै दरबारमा राखे ।
And, some of the utensils of the house of Yahweh, did Nebuchadnezzar carry to Babylon, —and put them in his own temple in Babylon.
8 यहोयाकीमको राजकालका अरू घटनाहरू, र तिनले गरेका घिनलाग्दा कामहरू, र तिनको विरुद्ध पाइएका कुराहरू यहूदा र इस्राएलका राजाहरूका इतिहासको पुस्तकमा लेखिएका छन् । त्यसपछि तिनको ठाउँमा तिनका छोरा यहोयाकीन राजा भए ।
But, the rest of the story of Jehoiakim, and his abominations which he made, and that which was found upon him, there they are, written in the book of the Kings of Israel and Judah, —and Jehoiachin his son reigned in his stead.
9 यहोयाकीन ले राज्य गर्न सुरु गर्दा तिनी आठ वर्षका थिए । तिनले यरूशलेममा तीन महिना दश दिन राज्य गरे । तिनले परमप्रभुको दृष्टिमा जे कुरो खराब थियो, त्यही गरे ।
Eight years old, was Jehoiachin when he began to reign, and, three months and ten days, reigned he in Jerusalem, and he did the thing that was wicked in the eyes of Yahweh;
10 बसन्त ऋतुमा राजा नबूकदनेसरले मानिसहरू पठाएर परमप्रभुको मन्दिरका मूल्यवान सामानहरूको साथमा तिनलाई बेबिलोनमा ल्याए, र तिनका आफन्त सिदकियाहलाई यहूदा र यरूशलेममाथि राजा तुल्याए ।
and, when the year came round, King Nebuchadnezzar sent, and carried him to Babylon, with the precious utensils of the house of Yahweh, —and made Zedekiah his brother king over Judah and Jerusalem.
11 सिदकियाहले राज्य गर्न सुरु गर्दा तिनी एक्काइस वर्षका थिए । तिनले यरूशलेममा एघार वर्ष राज्य गरे ।
Twenty-one years old, was Zedekiah when he began to reign, —and, eleven years, reigned he in Jerusalem.
12 तिनले परमप्रभु तिनका परमेश्वरको दृष्टिमा जे खराब थियो त्यही गरे । परमप्रभुको वचन बोल्ने यर्मिया अगमवक्ताको सामु तिनले आफैलाई विनम्र पारेनन् ।
And he did the thing that was wicked in the eyes of Yahweh his God, -he humbled not himself before Jeremiah the prophet, from the mouth of Yahweh.
13 परमेश्वरको नाउँमा तिनलाई शपथ खुवाउने राजा नबूकदनेसरसँग पनि तिनले बिद्रोह गरे । तर सिदकियाहले परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्वरतिर फर्किआउने कुराको विरुद्ध तिनी हठी भए र आफ्नो हृदय कठोर पारे ।
Moreover also—against King Nebuchadnezzar, he rebelled, who had made him swear by God, -and he stiffened his neck, and emboldened his heart, from turning unto Yahweh, God of Israel.
14 यसबाहेक अरू जातिहरूका सबै घिनलाग्दा कामका अनुसरण गरेर परमप्रभुले यरूशलेममा पवित्र गर्नुभएको उहाँको मन्दिरलाई अपवित्र पारेर पुजारीहरू र मानिसहरूका सबै अगुवाहरू अत्यन्तै विश्वासघाती भए । तिनीहरूले परमप्रभुले यरूशलेममा पवित्र गर्नुभएको मन्दिरलाई अपवित्र पारे ।
Also, all the rulers of the priests and of the people, abounded in committing treachery, according to all the abominable ways of the nations, —and polluted the house of Yahweh, which he had hallowed in Jerusalem.
15 परमप्रभु तिनीहरूका पुर्खाहरूका परमेश्वरले तिनीहरूलाई आफ्ना दूतहरूद्वारा घरिघरि वचन दिनुभयो, किनभने आफ्ना मानिस र आफ्नो वासस्थानमाथि उहाँले दया गर्नुभयो ।
And, though Yahweh God of their fathers sent unto them through his messengers, zealously sending them, —because he had compassion upon his people and upon his habitation,
16 तर परमप्रभुको क्रोध उहाँका मानिसहरूमाथि नपरुञ्जेल र सहायता आउने बाटो बन्द हुनेगरी तिनीहरूले उहाँका दूतहरूको गिल्ला गरे, उहाँको वचनहरूको निन्दा गरे र उहाँका अगमवक्ताहरूलाई हाँसोमा उडाए ।
yet became they mockers of the messengers of God, and despisers of his words, and mimics of his prophets, —until the mounting up of the wrath of Yahweh against his people, until there was no healing.
17 यसैले परमेश्वरले तिनीहरूका विरुद्धमा कल्दीका राजालाई ल्याउनुभयो, जसले पवित्रस्थानभित्रै तिनीहरूका जवान मानिसहरूलाई तरवारले मारे, र जवान मानिसहरू, कन्याहरू, वृद्धहरू वा कपाल सेतै फुलेकाहरू कसैलाई पनि तिनले छोडेनन् । परमेश्वरले ती सबैलाई तिनको हातमा सुम्पिदिनुभयो ।
So he brought up against them the king of the Chaldeans, who slew their young men with the sword, in the house of their sanctuary, and had no compassion upon young man or virgin, elder or ancient, -all, delivered he into his hand.
18 परमेश्वरको मन्दिरका सानाठूला सबै भाँडा र परमप्रभुको मन्दिर र राजा र तिनका अधिकारीहरूका दामीदामी थोकहरू सबै तिनले बेबिलोनमा लगे ।
And, all the utensils of the house of God, both great and small, and the treasures of the house of Yahweh, and the treasures of the king and of his rulers, the whole, carried he to Babylon;
19 उनीहरूले परमप्रभुको मन्दिर जलाइदिए, र यरूशलेमको पर्खाल भत्काइदिए, सहरका सबै महलहरू जलाइदिए, र त्यहाँ भएका सबै सुन्दर कुरा नष्ट गरे ।
and they burned the house of God, and threw down the wall of Jerusalem, —and, all the palaces thereof, burned they with fire, and, all the precious vessels thereof, he destroyed;
20 तरवारबाट उम्केकाहरूलाई राजाले कैद गरेर बेबिलोनमा लगे । तिनीहरू फारसको शासनमा नआउञ्जेल उनका र उनका छोराहरूका दास-दासी भए ।
and he exiled the remnant left from the sword, into Babylon, —where they became his and his sons, as servants, until the reign of the kingdom of Persia:
21 यर्मिया अगमवक्ताद्वारा बोलिएको परमप्रभुको वचन पूरा हुनलाई, देशले आफ्नो शबाथको बिश्रामको आनन्द नलिउञ्जेलसम्म यसो भयो । यसरी नै सत्तरी वर्ष पूरा नगुञ्जेल र विश्रामको पूरा समय नकाटुञ्जेल नाश भएको सबै समयभरि नै देशले शबाथको विश्राम पालन गर्दैरह्यो ।
to fulfil the word of God, by the mouth of Jeremiah, until the land had paid off her sabbaths, —all the days of her lying desolate, she kept sabbath, to fulfil seventy years.
22 फारसका राजा कोरेसको पहिलो वर्षमा यर्मियाद्वारा भनिएको परमप्रभुको वचन पूरा हुन परमप्रभुले फारसका राजाको आत्मालाई प्रोत्साहित पार्नुभयो, ताकि उनले आफ्नो साम्राज्यभरि एउटा घोषणा निकाले र त्यसलाई लेख्ने काम पनि गरे । तिनले यसो भने:
But, in the first year of Cyrus king of Persia, to accomplish the word of God by the mouth of Jeremiah, Yahweh aroused the spirit of Cyrus king of Persia, so that he made proclamation throughout all his kingdom, moreover also in writing, saying:
23 “फारसका राजा कोरेस यसो भन्छन्: परमप्रभु स्वर्गका परमेश्वरले पृथ्वीका सबै राज्य मलाई दिनुभएको छ । उहाँले मलाई यहूदाको यरूशलेममा उहाँको निम्ति एउटा मन्दिर बनाउन आज्ञा गर्नुभएको छ । उहाँका सबै मानिसध्येबाट जो-जो अहिले यहाँ छौ, परमप्रभु आफ्ना परमेश्वर तिमीहरूसँग रहनुभएको होस् । त्यो आफ्नो देशमा यरूशलेममा जाओस् ।”
Thus, saith Cyrus king of Persia, All the kingdoms of the earth, hath Yahweh God of the heavens, given unto me, and, he himself, hath laid charge upon me, to build to him a house, in Jerusalem, which is in Judah. Who is there among you of all his people with whom is Yahweh his God? Then let him go up.
