< २ राजाहरू 1 >
1 आहाबको मृत्युपछि मोआब इस्राएलको विरुद्धमा बागी भयो ।
And Moab rebelled against Israel, after the death of Achab.
2 तब अहज्याह सामरियामा माथिल्लो कोठाको झ्यालबाट तल खसे र घाइते भए । यसैले तिनले सन्देशवाहकहरू पठाए र तिनीहरूलाई भने, “जाओ र यस चोटबाट म निको हुन्छु कि हुन्न एक्रोनको देवता बाल-जिबबलाई सोध ।”
And Ochozias fell through the lattices of his upper chamber which he had in Samaria, and was sick: and he sent messengers, saying to them: Go, consult Beelzebub, the god of Accaron, whether I shall recover of this my illness.
3 तर परमप्रभुका दूतले तिश्बी एलियालाई भने, “उठ, र सामरियाका राजाका सन्देशवाहकहरूलाई भेट्न जाऊ, अनि तिनीहरूलाई सोध, 'के इस्राएलमा कुनै परमेश्वर नभएको हुनाले तिमीहरू एक्रोनको देवता बाल-जिबबसित सल्लाह लिन जाँदैछौ?
And an angel of the Lord spoke to Elias the Thesbite, saying: Arise, and go up to meet the messengers of the king of Samaria, and say to them: Is there not a God in Israel, that ye go to consult Beelzebub the god of Accaron?
4 त्यसकारण परमप्रभु भन्नुहुन्छ, “तँ उक्लेको त्यो माथिको ओछ्यानबाट तँ तल आउनेछैनस् । बरु, तँ निश्चय नै मर्नेछस्' ।” तब एलिया गए ।
Wherefore thus saith the Lord: From the bed, on which thou art gone up, thou shalt not come down, but thou shalt surely die. And Elias went away.
5 जब सन्देशवाहकहरू अहज्याहकहाँ फर्के तब तिनले तिनीहरूलाई सोधे, “तिमीहरू किन फर्केका छौ?”
And the messengers turned back to Ochozias. And he said to them: Why are you come back?
6 तिनीहरूले तिनलाई भने, “एक जना मानिस हामीलाई भेट्न आए जसले हामीलाई भने, 'तिमीहरूलाई पठाउने राजाकहाँ फर्के जाऊ र तिनलाई भन, “परमप्रभु यसो भन्नुहुन्छः 'के इस्राएलमा कुनै परमेश्वर नभएको हुनाले तिमीहरू एक्रोनको देवता बाल-जिबबसित सल्लाह लिन जाँदैछौ? त्यसकारण तँ उक्लेको त्यो माथिको ओछ्यानबाट तँ तल आउनेछैनस् । बरु, तँ निश्चय नै मर्नेछस्' ।”
But they answered him: A man met us, and said to us: Go, and return to the king, that sent you, and you shall say to him: Thus saith the Lord: Is it because there was no God in Israel that thou sendest to Beelzebub the god of Accaron? Therefore thou shalt not come down from the bed, on which thou art gone up, but then shalt surely die.
7 अहज्याहले आफ्ना सन्देशवाहकहरूलाई भने, “तिमीहरूलाई भेट्न आउने र यी कुराहरू भन्ने मानिस कस्तो किसिमको थियो?”
And he said to them: What manner of man was he who met you, and spoke these words?
8 तिनीहरूले तिनलाई जवाफ दिए, “तिनले रौँका लुगा लगाएका थिए, र आफ्नो कम्मरमा छालाको पेटी बाँधेका थिए ।” त्यसैले राजाले भने, “तिनी त तिश्बी एलिया हुन् ।”
But they said: A hairy man with a girdle of leather about his loins. And he said: It is Elias the Thesbite.
9 तब राजाले पचास जना सिपाहीसँगै एक जना कप्तानलाई एलियाकहाँ पठाए । कप्तान एलियाकहाँ गए जहाँ तिनी डाँडाको टाकुरामा बसिरहेका थिए । कप्तानले तिनलाई भने, “हे परमेश्वरका मानिस, राजाले भन्नुभएको छ, 'तल आउनुहोस्' ।”
And he sent to him a captain of fifty, and the fifty men that were under him. And he went up to him, and as he was sitting on the top of a hill, said to him: Man of God, the king hath commanded that thou come down.
10 एलियाले कप्तानलाई भने, “म परमेश्वरका मानिस हुँ भने स्वर्गबाट आगो झरोस् र तपाईं र तपाईंका पचास जना मानिसलाई भस्म पारोस् ।” तब स्वर्गबाट आगो झर्यो र तिनलाई र तिनका पचास जना मानिसलाई भस्म पार्यो ।
And Elias answering, said to the captain of fifty: If I be a man of God, let fire come down from heaven, and consume thee, and thy fifty. And there came down fire from heaven, and consumed him, and the fifty that were with him.
11 फेरि राजा अहज्याहले अर्का कप्तानलाई पचास जना सिपाहीसहित एलियाकहाँ पठाए । यी कप्तानले पनि एलियालाई भने, “हे परमेश्वरका मानिस, राजा भन्नुहुन्छ, 'झट्टै तल आउनुहोस्' ।”
And again he sent to him another captain of fifty men, and his fifty with him. And he said to him: Man of God, thus saith the king: Make haste and come down.
12 एलियाले तिनीहरूलाई भने, “म परमेश्वरका मानिस हुँ भने स्वर्गबाट आगो झरोस् र तपाईं र तपाईंका पचास जना मानिसलाई भस्म पारोस् ।” फेरि स्वर्गबाट परमेश्वरको आगो झर्यो र तिनलाई र तिनका पचास जना मानिसलाई भस्म पार्यो ।
Elias answering, said: If I be a man of God, let fire come down from heaven, and consume thee and thy fifty. And fire came down from heaven, and consumed him and his fifty.
13 तथापि राजाले पचास जना योद्धाको तेस्रो समूह पठाए । यो कप्तान माथि उक्ले, एलियाको सामु आफ्ना घुँडा टेके र तिनले विनम्रतापूर्वक बिन्ती गरेर भने, “हे परमेश्वरका मानिस, म तपाईंसँग बिन्ति गर्छु, कि मेरो जीवन र तपाईंका यी पचास जना दासका जीवन तपाईंको दृष्टिमा मूल्यवान् होऊन् ।
Again he sent a third captain of fifty men, and the fifty that were with him. And when he was come, he fell upon his knees, before Elias, and besought him and said: Man of God, despise not my life, and the lives of thy servants that are with me.
14 वास्तवमा स्वर्गबाट आगो झर्यो र यस अघिका दुई जना कप्तानलाई तिनीहरूका मानिसहरूसँगै भस्म पार्यो, तर मेरो जीवन तपाईंको दृष्टिमा मूल्यवान् होस् ।”
Behold fire came down from heaven, and consumed the two first captains of fifty men, and the fifties that were with them: but now I beseech thee to spare my life.
15 परमप्रभुका दूतले एलियालाई भने, “त्योसँगै तल जा । त्योदेखि नडरा ।” त्यसैले एलिया उठे र त्योसँगै राजाकहाँ गए ।
And the angel of the Lord spoke to Elias, saying: Go down with him, fear not. He arose therefore, and went down with him to the king,
16 पछि एलियाले अहज्याहलाई भने, “परमप्रभु यसो भन्नुहुन्छ, 'तैँले एक्रोनको देवता बाल-जिबबसित सल्लाह लिन सन्देशवाहकहरू पठाएको छस् । जानकारी लिनको लागि इस्राएलमा कुनै परमेश्वर नभएको हुनाले त्यसो गरेको हो? यसैले तँ उक्लेको त्यो माथिको ओछ्यानबाट तँ तल आउनेछैनस् । तँ निश्चय नै मर्नेछस्' ।”
And said to him: Thus saith the Lord: Because thou hast sent messengers to consult Beelzebub the god of Accaron, as though there were not a God in Israel, of whom thou mightest inquire the word; therefore from the bed on which thou art gone up, thou shalt not come down, but thou shalt surely die.
17 यसरी एलियाले बोलेको परमप्रभुको वचनअनुसार अहज्याह मरे । अहज्याहको कुनै छोरो नभएको हुनाले यहूदाका राजा यहोशापातका छोरा यहोरामको दोस्रो वर्षमा योरामले तिनको ठाउँमा राज्य गर्न थाले ।
So he died according to the word of the Lord which Elias spoke, and Joram his brother reigned in his stead, in the second year of Joram the son of Josaphat king of Juda: because he had no son.
18 अहज्याहका सम्बन्धमा भएका अरू कुराहरूका बारेमा इस्राएलका राजाहरूको इतिहासको पुस्तकमा लेखिएका छैनन् र?
But the rest of the acts of Ochozias which he did, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?
