2 राजाहरू 13
1 यहूदाका राजा अहज्याहका छोरा योआशको तेइसौँ वर्षमा येहूका छोरा यहोआहाजले सामरियामा बसेर इस्राएलमाथि राज्य गर्न थाले । तिनले सत्र वर्ष राज्य गरे
Jehoahaz, son of Jehu, became king of Israel in the twenty-third year of the reign of Joash, son of Ahaziah, king of Judah. He reigned in Samaria for seventeen years.
2 परमप्रभुको दृष्टिमा जे खराब थियो, तिनले त्यही गरे, र इस्राएललाई पाप गर्न लगाउने नबातका छोरा यारोबामका पापको चामा हिंडे । अनि यहोआहाज तीबाट फर्केनन् ।
He did what was evil in the Lord's sight, and followed the sins that Jeroboam son of Nebat, had made Israel commit; he did not end them.
3 इस्राएलको विरुद्धमा परमप्रभुको क्रोध दन्कियो, अनि उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई अरामका राजा हजाएल र हजाएलका छोरा बेन-हददको हातमा निरन्तर रूपले दिनुभयो ।
So the Lord was angry with Israel, and he repeatedly allowed them to be defeated by Hazael, king of Aram, and his son Ben-hadad.
4 त्यसैले यहोआहाजले परमप्रभुलाई बिन्ती गरे, र परमप्रभुले तिनको कुरा सुन्नुभयो किनकि अरामका राजाले कसरी इस्राएलमाथि थिचोमिचो गरिरहेका थिए भनी उहाँले देख्नुभयो ।
Jehoahaz asked the Lord for help, and the Lord responded to his request because he saw how badly the king of Aram was treating Israel.
5 त्यसैले परमप्रभुले इस्राएललाई एउटा उद्धारक दिनुभयो, अनि तिनीहरू अरामीहरूका हातबाट उम्के, र इस्राएलीहरू पहिलेजस्तै आ-आफ्ना घरमा बस्न लागे ।
The Lord gave Israel someone who would save them so they no longer were under Aramean rule. Then the Israelites were able to go back to living in safety as before.
6 तापनि इस्राएललाई पाप गर्न लगाउने यारोबामका घरानाका पापहरूबाट तिनीहरू फर्केनन्, र तिनीहरू तिनमा लागिरहे । अनि अशेरा देवीको खम्बा सामरियामा रहिरह्यो ।
Even so they did not end the sins that the house of Jeroboam had made Israel commit—they continued to follow them. The Asherah idol still stood in Samaria.
7 अरामीहरूले यहोआहाजलाई केवल पचास घोडचढी, दसवटा रथ र दस हजार पैदल सिपाही मात्र छाडे किनकि अरामका राजाले तिनीहरूलाई नाश पारेका थिए र तिनीहरूलाई अन्न चुट्ने समयको भुसजस्तै पारेका थिए ।
All that was left of Jehoahaz's army were fifty horsemen, ten chariots, and ten thousand soldiers, for the king of Aram had destroyed the rest, turning them into dust like that when grain is threshed.
8 यहोआहाज, तिनले गरेका सबै काम र तिनको शक्तिको बारेमा इस्राएलका राजाहरूको इतिहासको पुस्तकमा लेखिएका छैनन् र?
The rest of what happened in Jehoahaz's reign, all he did, and his great achievements are recorded in the Book of Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.
9 यसरी यहोआहाज आफ्ना पुर्खाहरूसित सुते, र तिनीहरूले तिनलाई सामरियामा गाडे । तिनको ठाउँमा तिनका छोरा यहोआश राजा भए ।
Jehoahaz died and was buried in Samaria. His son Jehoash succeeded him as king.
10 यहूदाका राजा योआशको सैँतिसौँ वर्षमा यहोआहाजका छोरा यहोआशले सामरियामा बसेर इस्राएलमाथि राज्य गर्न थाले । तिनले सोह्र वर्ष राज्य गरे ।
Jehoash, son of Jehoahaz, became king of Israel in Samaria in the thirty-seventh year of the reign of King Joash of Judah, and he reigned for sixteen years.
11 परमप्रभुको दृष्टिमा जे खराब थियो, तिनले त्यही गरे । तिनले इस्राएललाई पाप गर्न लगाउने नबातका छोरा यारोबामको कुनै पनि पापलाई छाडेनन्, तर तिनी तिनैमा हिंडे ।
He did what was evil in the Lord's sight and did not end all the sins that Jeroboam, son of Nebat, had made Israel commit—he continued to follow them.
12 यहोआश, तिनले गरेका सबै कामहरू र कसरी तिनको शक्ति जसद्वारा तिनले यहूदाका राजा अमस्याहको विरुद्धमा लडे भन्ने बारेमा इस्राएलका राजाहरूको इतिहासको पुस्तकमा लेखिएका छैनन् र?
The rest of what happened in Jehoash's reign, all he did, and his great achievements such as his war against Amaziah, king of Judah, are recorded in the Book of Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.
13 यहोआश आफ्ना पुर्खाहरूसित सुते, र यारोबाम तिनको सिंहासनमा बसे । इस्राएलका राजाहरूसँगै यहोआशलाई सामरियामा गाडियो ।
Jehoash died, and Jeroboam sat on his throne. Jehoash was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel.
14 अब एलीशा एउटा रोगले बिरामी परे जसबाट पछि तिनी मरे । त्यसैले इस्राएलका राजा यहोआश तिनीकहाँ आए र तिनीसँग रोए । तिनले भने, “हे मेरा पिता, हे मेरा पिता, इस्राएलका रथहरू र घोडचढीले तिमीलाई उठाएर लाँदैछन् ।”
Elisha had become ill with a disease that would eventually kill him. Jehoash, king of Israel, went to visit him, and wept over him, saying, “My father, my father, the chariots and the horsemen of Israel!”
15 एलीशाले तिनलाई भने, “एउटा धनु र केही काँडहरू उठाउनुहोस् ।” त्यसैले योआशले एउटा धनु र केही काँडहरू उठाए ।
Elisha told him, “Find a bow and some arrows.” So Jehoash found a bow and some arrows.
16 एलीशाले इस्राएलका राजालाई भने, “आफ्नो हात धनुमा राख्नुहोस् ।” त्यसैले तिनले आफ्नो हातमा धनुमा राखे । तब एलीशाले आफ्ना हात राजाका हातमाथि राखे ।
Then Elisha said to the king of Israel, “Pick up the bow.” So the king picked up the bow. Elisha placed his hands on the king's hands.
17 एलीशाले भने, “पूर्वपट्टिको झ्याल खोल्नुहोस् ।” त्यसैले तिनले त्यसलाई खोले । तब एलीशाले भने, “हान्नुहोस्!” तिनले हाने । एलीशाले भने, “यो परमप्रभुको विजयको काँड हो अर्थात् अराममाथि विजयको काँड हो, किनकि अरामीहरूलाई सर्वनाश नपारूञ्जेलसम्म तपाईंले तिनीहरूलाई अपेकमा आक्रमण गर्नुहुनेछ ।”
“Open the east window,” he told him. So the king opened it and Elisha said, “Shoot!” So he fired an arrow. Then Elisha explained, “This is the Lord's victory arrow representing the arrow of victory over the Arameans. You will attack the Arameans in Aphek and finish them off.”
18 तब एलीशाले भने, “काँडहरू लिनुहोस् ।” त्यसैले तिनले ती लिए । तिनले इस्राएलका राजालाई भने, “तिनले भुइँमा हान्नुहोस् ।” तिनले तिन पटक भुइँमा हानेपछि तिनी रोकिए ।
Then Elisha said, “Pick up the arrows!” So he picked them up. Elisha told the king of Israel, “Hit the ground with them!” He hit the ground three times, and then stopped.
19 तर परमेश्वरका मानिस तिनीसित रिसाए र भने, “तपाईंले पाँच वा छ पटक भुइँलाई हिर्काउनुपर्थ्यो । तब तपाईंले अरामलाई निमिट्ट्यान्न नभएसम्म आक्रमण गर्नुहुनेथियो, तर अब त तपाईंले अरामलाई तिन पटक मात्र आक्रमण गर्नुहुनेछ ।”
The man of God got angry with him, telling him, “You should have hit the ground five or six times. Then you would have attacked the Arameans until you had completely destroyed them. But now you will only attack the Arameans three times.”
20 तब एलीशा मरे, र तिनीहरूले तिनलाई गाडे । नयाँ वर्षको समयमा मोआबीहरूका नयाँ दलहरूले देशलाई लुटे ।
Elisha died and was buried. Raiders from the country of Moab used to invade Israel every spring.
21 तिनीहरूले कुनै एउटा मानिसलाई गाडिरहँदा तिनीहरूले मोआबीहरूको एउटा दललाई देखे, त्यसैले तिनीहरूले लाशलाई एलीशाको चिहानमा फाले । लाशले एलीशाका हड्डीहरूलाई छुनेबित्तिकै त्यो बिउँतियो, र आफ्नो पाउमा खडा भयो ।
On time some Israelites were burying a man when suddenly they saw some raiders coming, so they quickly threw the man into Elisha's tomb. As soon as he touched Elisha's bones, the man came back to life and stood up.
22 अरामका राजा हजाएलले यहोआहाजको जीवनभर इस्राएललाई थिचोमिचो गरिरहे ।
Hazael, king of Aram, caused problems for Israel through all Jehoahaz's reign.
23 तर अब्राहाम, इसहाक र याकूबसित बाँध्नुभएको आफ्नो करारको कारणले गर्दा परमप्रभु इस्राएलप्रति अनुग्रही हुनुभयो, र तिनीहरूलाई दया देखाउनुभयो र तिनीहरूको फिक्री गर्नुभयो । त्यसैले परमप्रभुले तिनीहरूलाई नष्ट गर्नुभएन, र उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई अझै पनि आफ्नो उपस्थितिबाट धपाउनुभएको छैन ।
But the Lord graciously helped them and was kind to them. He looked after them because of his agreement with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Even to this day he's been unwilling to destroy them or to throw them out of his presence.
24 अरामका राजा हजाएल मरे, र तिनको ठाउँमा तिनका छोरा बेन-हदद राजा भए ।
When Hazael, king of Aram, died, his son Ben-hadad succeeded him as king.
25 यहोआहाजका छोरा यहोआशले तिनका पिता यहोआहाजबाट हजाएलका छोरा बेन-हददले युद्ध गरी लिएका सहरहरू फिर्ता लिए । यहोआशले तिनलाई तिन पटक आक्रमण गरे, र तिनले इस्राएलका ती सहरहरू फिर्ता लिए ।
Then Jehoash, son of Jehoahaz, recovered from Ben-hadad son of Hazael, the towns that Hazael had captured from his father Jehoahaz. Jehoash defeated Ben-hadad three times, and so recaptured the Israelite towns.
