< २ राजाहरू 13 >

1 यहूदाका राजा अहज्याहका छोरा योआशको तेइसौँ वर्षमा येहूका छोरा यहोआहाजले सामरियामा बसेर इस्राएलमाथि राज्‍य गर्न थाले । तिनले सत्र वर्ष राज्य गरे
In the three and twentieth year of Joash the son of Achazyahu the king of Judah became Jehoachaz the son of Jehu king over Israel 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 ।
And he did what is evil in the eyes of the Lord, and followed the sins of Jerobo'am the son of Nebat, who induced Israel to sin: he departed not therefrom.
3 इस्राएलको विरुद्धमा परमप्रभुको क्रोध दन्कियो, अनि उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई अरामका राजा हजाएल र हजाएलका छोरा बेन-हददको हातमा निरन्तर रूपले दिनुभयो ।
And the anger of the Lord was kindled against Israel; and he gave them up into the hand of Chazael the king of Syria, and into the hand of Ben-hadad the son of Chazael, all the time.
4 त्यसैले यहोआहाजले परमप्रभुलाई बिन्ती गरे, र परमप्रभुले तिनको कुरा सुन्‍नुभयो किनकि अरामका राजाले कसरी इस्राएलमाथि थिचोमिचो गरिरहेका थिए भनी उहाँले देख्‍नुभयो ।
And Jehoachaz besought the Lord; and the Lord hearkened unto him; for he saw the oppression of Israel, how the king of Syria oppressed them.
5 त्यसैले परमप्रभुले इस्राएललाई एउटा उद्धारक दिनुभयो, अनि तिनीहरू अरामीहरूका हातबाट उम्के, र इस्राएलीहरू पहिलेजस्तै आ-आफ्ना घरमा बस्‍न लागे ।
(And the Lord gave Israel a deliverer, so that they came out from under the power of the Syrians: and the children of Israel dwelt in their tents, as in times past.
6 तापनि इस्राएललाई पाप गर्न लगाउने यारोबामका घरानाका पापहरूबाट तिनीहरू फर्केनन्, र तिनीहरू तिनमा लागिरहे । अनि अशेरा देवीको खम्बा सामरियामा रहिरह्‍यो ।
Nevertheless they departed not from the sins of the house of Jerobo'am, who induced Israel to sin, therein the people walked: and the Asherah also remained standing 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 ।
For he had left of people to Jehoachaz none but fifty horsemen, and ten chariots, and ten thousand men on foot; for the king of Syria had destroyed them, and had made them like the dust at threshing.
8 यहोआहाज, तिनले गरेका सबै काम र तिनको शक्तिको बारेमा इस्राएलका राजाहरूको इतिहासको पुस्तकमा लेखिएका छैनन् र?
Now the rest of the acts of Jehoachaz, and all that he did, and his mighty deeds, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.
9 यसरी यहोआहाज आफ्ना पुर्खाहरूसित सुते, र तिनीहरूले तिनलाई सामरियामा गाडे । तिनको ठाउँमा तिनका छोरा यहोआश राजा भए ।
And Jehoachaz slept with his fathers; and they buried him in Samaria: and Joash his son became king in his stead.
10 यहूदाका राजा योआशको सैँतिसौँ वर्षमा यहोआहाजका छोरा यहोआशले सामरियामा बसेर इस्राएलमाथि राज्‍य गर्न थाले । तिनले सोह्र वर्ष राज्य गरे ।
In the thirty and seventh year of Joash the king of Judah became Jehoash the son of Jehoachaz king over Israel in Samaria, [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 ।
And he did what is evil in the eyes of the Lord; he departed not from all the sins of Jerobo'am the son of Nebat, who induced Israel to sin: therein he walked.
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?
And the rest of the acts of Joash, and all that he did, and his mighty deeds wherewith he fought against Amazyah the king of Judah, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.
13 यहोआश आफ्ना पुर्खाहरूसित सुते, र यारोबाम तिनको सिंहासनमा बसे । इस्राएलका राजाहरूसँगै यहोआशलाई सामरियामा गाडियो ।
And Joash slept with his fathers; and Jerobo'am sat upon his throne: and Joash 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 ।”
Now Elisha' was fallen sick of his sickness whereof he had to die. And Joash the king of Israel came down unto him, and wept over his face, and said, O my father, my father, the chariot of Israel, and their horsemen.
15 एलीशाले तिनलाई भने, “एउटा धनु र केही काँडहरू उठाउनुहोस् ।” त्यसैले योआशले एउटा धनु र केही काँडहरू उठाए ।
And Elisha' said unto him, Fetch a bow and arrows. And he fetched unto him a bow and arrows.
16 एलीशाले इस्राएलका राजालाई भने, “आफ्‍नो हात धनुमा राख्‍नुहोस् ।” त्यसैले तिनले आफ्नो हातमा धनुमा राखे । तब एलीशाले आफ्ना हात राजाका हातमाथि राखे ।
And he said to the king of Israel, Place thy hand upon the bow. And he placed his hand [upon it]: and Elisha' laid his hands upon 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 ।”
And he said, Open the window eastward. And he opened it. Then said Elisha', Shoot. And he shot. And he said, The arrow of victory from the Lord, and the arrow of victory over Syria; and thou shalt smite the Syrians in Aphek, till they be consumed.
18 तब एलीशाले भने, “काँडहरू लिनुहोस् ।” त्यसैले तिनले ती लिए । तिनले इस्राएलका राजालाई भने, “तिनले भुइँमा हान्‍नुहोस् ।” तिनले तिन पटक भुइँमा हानेपछि तिनी रोकिए ।
And he said, Take the arrows. And he took them. And he said unto the king of Israel, Strike upon the ground. And he struck three times, and 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 ।”
And the man of God was angry with him, and said, Thou shouldst have struck five or six times; then wouldst thou have smitten the Syrians till they had been consumed: whereas now thou shalt smite the Syrians three times.
20 तब एलीशा मरे, र तिनीहरूले तिनलाई गाडे । नयाँ वर्षको समयमा मोआबीहरूका नयाँ दलहरूले देशलाई लुटे ।
And Elisha' died, and they buried him. And the predatory bands of Moabites frequently invaded the land at the coming in of the year.
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 ।
And it came to pass, as they were burying a man, that, behold, they saw the band; and they cast down the man into the sepulchre of Elisha': and as the man came, and touched the bones of Elisha', he revived, and rose up on his feet.
22 अरामका राजा हजाएलले यहोआहाजको जीवनभर इस्राएललाई थिचोमिचो गरिरहे ।
But Chazael the king of Syria oppressed Israel all the days of Jehoachaz.
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 ।
And the Lord became gracious unto them, and had mercy on them, and turned his regard unto them, because of his covenant with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and would not destroy them, and he cast them not off from his presence even until now.
24 अरामका राजा हजाएल मरे, र तिनको ठाउँमा तिनका छोरा बेन-हदद राजा भए ।
And Chazael the king of Syria died: and Ben-hadad his son became king in his stead.
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 ।
And Jehoash the son of Jehoachaz took again the cities out of the power of Ben-hadad the son of Chazael, which he had taken out of the power of Jehoachaz his father in the war. Three times did Joash beat him, and he recovered the cities of Israel.
