< २ इतिहास 8 >
1 सोलोमनले परमप्रभुको मन्दिर र आफ्नो राजमहल निर्माण गरेका बिस वर्षको समयको अन्तमा यस्तो भयो,
And it came to pass at the end of twenty years, when Solomon had built the house of the Lord, and his own house,
2 हीरामले सोलोमनलाई दिएका सहरहरूका तिनले पुनर्निर्माण गरे र तिनमा इस्राएलका मानिहरूलाई तिनले बसाले ।
That [as regardeth] the cities which Churam had restored to Solomon, Solomon built them, and caused the children of Israel to dwell there.
3 सोलोमनले हमातसोबालाई आक्रमण गरे र त्यसलाई हराए ।
And Solomon went to Chamath-zobah, and prevailed against it.
4 तिनले उजाड-स्थानमा तदमोरको पुनर्निर्माण गरे र सबै भण्डारणका सहर जसलाई तिनले हमातमा बनाए ।
And he built Thadmor in the wilderness, and all the treasure-cities, which he built in Chamath.
5 तिनले माथिल्लो बेथ होरोन र तल्लो बेथ होरोनलाई पर्खालहरू, ढोकाहरू र बारहरू लगाएर किल्लाबन्दी गरे ।
And he built the upper Beth-choron, and the lower Beth-choron, fortified cities, with walls, gates, and bars;
6 तिनले बालात आफूसँग भएका भण्डारणका सबै सहर र आफ्ना रथहरू सबै सहर र घोडाचडीहरूका निम्ति सहरहरू र यरूशलेममा, लेबनानमा र आफ्ना सारा राज्यमा सारा देशभरि आफूले जे इच्छा गरे त्यो तिनले बनाए ।
And Ba'alath, and all the treasure-cities that Solomon had, and all the cities for chariots, and the cities for horsemen, and all the [other] desire of Solomon which he desired to build in Jerusalem, and in the Lebanon, and throughout all the land of his dominion.
7 हित्ती, एमोरी, परिज्जी, हिव्वी र यबूसीहरूका सबै बाँकी रहेकाहरू, जो इस्राएलका थिएनन्,
All the people that were left of the Hittites, and the Emorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, who were not of Israel,
8 तिनीहरूपछि देशमा छोडिएका तिनीहरूका सन्तानहरू, जसलाई इस्राएलीहरूले नाश गरेका थिएनन्—सोलोमनले तिनीहरूलाई ज्यालाबिनाका श्रमिक बनाए, जसमा तिनीहरू आजको दिनसम्मै रहेका छन् ।
Out of their children, who were left after them in the land, whom the children of Israel had not destroyed—these did Solomon levy as tributary [laborers] until this day.
9 तापनि सोलोमनले इस्राएलका मानिसलाई ज्यालाबिनाका श्रमिक बनाएनन् । बरु, तिनीहरू तिनका सिपाहीहरू, कमाण्डरहरू, अधिकारीहरू, अनि सारथि र घोडचडीका कमाण्डरहरू भए ।
Yet of the children of Israel did Solomon make no bondmen for his work; but they were men of war, and chiefs of his captains; and officers of his chariots and of his horsemen.
10 सोलोमनका निरीक्षकहरूका मुख्य अधिकारीहरू यिनैमध्येबाट भए जो २५० जना थिए, जसले काम गर्नेहरूको निरीक्षण गरे ।
And these were the chiefs of the superintendents whom king Solomon had, [even] two hundred and fifty, who ruled over the people.
11 सोलोमनले फारोकी छोरीलाई दाऊदको सहरबाट तिनको निम्ति बनाएको महलमा ल्याए, किनकि तिनले भने, “मेरी पत्नी इस्राएलका राजा दाऊदको महलमा बस्नेछैनन्, किनभने परमप्रभुको सन्दूक ल्याइएका ठाउँहरू पवित्र छन् ।”
And the daughter of Pharaoh did Solomon bring up out of the city of David unto the house that he had built for her; for he said, No wife of mine shall dwell in a house of David the king of Israel, because they are holy, because there came [once] unto them the ark of the Lord.
12 तब सोलोमनले दलानको अगाडिपट्टि आफूले बनाएको वेदीमा परमप्रभुको निम्ति होमबलिहरू चढाए ।
Then did Solomon offer burnt-offerings unto the Lord on the altar of the Lord, which he had built before the porch,
13 दिन-दिनको सूचीअनुसार तिनले बलिदानहरू चढाए । मोशाको आज्ञामा भएका निर्देशनबमोजिम तिनले शबाथ दिन, औंसी र वर्षेनी तिन पल्ट चढाउने चाडहरूः अखमिरी रोटीको चाड, साताहरूको चाड र छाप्रो-वासको चाडमा तोकिएबमिजिम तिनले चढाए ।
Even according to what was the due of [every] day on its day, offering according to the commandment of Moses, on the sabbaths, and on the new-moons, and on the stated festivals, three times in the year, on the feast of unleavened bread, and on the feast of weeks, and on the feast of tabernacles.
14 आफ्ना पिता दाऊदको विधिहरू पालन गर्ने कुरामा सोलोमनले प्रतिदिनको लागि आवश्यक परेअनुसार पुजारीका दलहरूलाई आआफ्ना काममा र लेवीहरूलाई चाहिं परमेश्वरको स्तुति गर्ने र पुजारीहरूका अगि सेवा गर्ने तिनीहरूका दर्जामा नियुक्त गरे । हरेक ढोकामा तिनले ढोकाका रक्षकहरू आफ्ना दलअनुसार रहनलाई नियुक्त गरे, किनकि परमेश्वरका मानिस दाऊदले यसरी नै आज्ञा दिएका थिए ।
And he stationed, according to the prescription of David his father, the divisions of the priests at their service, and the Levites at their stations, to praise and minister next to the priests, in the requirement of every day on its day, and the gate-keepers in their divisions at every gate; for so was the charge of David the man of God.
15 पुजारीहरू र लेवीहरूलाई कुनै पनि विषयमा वा अनि भण्डारण कोठाहरूका विषयमा राजाले दिएका आज्ञाबाट यी मानिसहरू तर्किएनन् ।
And they departed not from the charge of the king concerning the priests and Levites respecting every matter, and respecting the treasuries.
16 परमप्रभुका मन्दिरको जग बसालेदेखि त्यो पूरा नभएसम्म सोलोमनले आज्ञा गरेका सबै काम सम्पन्न भएको थियो । परमप्रभुको मन्दिर बनाउने काम सकियो ।
And [so] was all the work of Solomon successful from the day of founding the house of the Lord, even until it was finished. [So] was perfected the house of the Lord.
17 त्यसपछि सोलोमन एदोम देशको किनारमा भएको एस्योन-गेबेर र एलातमा गए ।
Then went Solomon to 'Ezyon-geber, and to Eloth, at the sea-shore in the land of Edom.
18 अनि हीरामले समुद्रको बारेमा जानकारी भएका मानिसहरूसहितका आफ्ना अधिकारीहरूका कमाण्डमा रहेका रहेका पानी जहाजहरू पठाइदिए र सोलोमनका सेवकहरूका साथमा तिनीहरू ओपीरमा गए र तिनीहरूले त्यहाँबाट सोह्र टन सुन ल्याए र त्यो सोलोमन राजालाई दिए ।
And Churam sent him by means of his servants ships, and servants that had knowledge of the sea; and they went with the servants of Solomon to Ophir, and they fetched away thence four hundred and fifty talents of gold, and brought the same to king Solomon.
