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 Ahaziah, king of Judah, Jehoahaz the son of Jehu began to reign 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 ।

He did that which was evil in the sight of Jehovah, and followed the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, with which he made Israel to sin; he did not depart from it.

3 इस्राएलको विरुद्धमा परमप्रभुको क्रोध दन्कियो, अनि उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई अरामका राजा हजाएल र हजाएलका छोरा बेन-हददको हातमा निरन्तर रूपले दिनुभयो ।

The anger of Jehovah was kindled against Israel, and he delivered them into the hand of Hazael king of Aram, and into the hand of Benhadad the son of Hazael, continually.

4 त्यसैले यहोआहाजले परमप्रभुलाई बिन्ती गरे, र परमप्रभुले तिनको कुरा सुन्‍नुभयो किनकि अरामका राजाले कसरी इस्राएलमाथि थिचोमिचो गरिरहेका थिए भनी उहाँले देख्‍नुभयो ।

Jehoahaz begged Jehovah, and Jehovah listened to him; for he saw the oppression of Israel, how that the king of Aram oppressed them.

5 त्यसैले परमप्रभुले इस्राएललाई एउटा उद्धारक दिनुभयो, अनि तिनीहरू अरामीहरूका हातबाट उम्के, र इस्राएलीहरू पहिलेजस्तै आ-आफ्ना घरमा बस्‍न लागे ।

(Jehovah gave Israel a savior, so that they went out from under the hand of the Arameans; and the children of Israel lived in their tents as before.

6 तापनि इस्राएललाई पाप गर्न लगाउने यारोबामका घरानाका पापहरूबाट तिनीहरू फर्केनन्, र तिनीहरू तिनमा लागिरहे । अनि अशेरा देवीको खम्बा सामरियामा रहिरह्‍यो ।

Nevertheless they did not depart from the sins of the house of Jeroboam, with which he made Israel to sin; they walked in them. And the Asherah also remained 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 did not leave to Jehoahaz of the people any more than fifty horsemen, and ten chariots, and ten thousand footmen; for the king of Aram destroyed them, and made them like the dust in 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 Jehoahaz, and all that he did, and his might, aren't they 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 ।

Jehoahaz slept with his fathers; and they buried him in Samaria: and Joash his son reigned in his place.

10 यहूदाका राजा योआशको सैँतिसौँ वर्षमा यहोआहाजका छोरा यहोआशले सामरियामा बसेर इस्राएलमाथि राज्‍य गर्न थाले । तिनले सोह्र वर्ष राज्य गरे ।

In the thirty-seventh year of Joash king of Judah, Jehoash the son of Jehoahaz began to reign 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 ।

He did that which was evil in the sight of Jehovah; he did not depart from all the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, with which he made Israel to sin; but he walked in it.

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?

Now the rest of the acts of Joash, and all that he did, and his might with which he fought against Amaziah king of Judah, aren't they 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 ।

Joash slept with his fathers; and Jeroboam sat on 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 of which he died: and Joash the king of Israel came down to him, and wept over him, and said, "My father, my father, the chariots of Israel and its horsemen."

15 एलीशाले तिनलाई भने, “एउटा धनु र केही काँडहरू उठाउनुहोस् ।” त्यसैले योआशले एउटा धनु र केही काँडहरू उठाए ।

Elisha said to him, "Take bow and arrows"; and he took to him 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 ।

He said to the king of Israel, "Put your hand on the bow"; and he put his hand on it. Elisha laid 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 ।”

He said, "Open the window eastward"; and he opened it. Then Elisha said, "Shoot." and he shot. He said, "Jehovah's arrow of victory, even the arrow of victory over Aram; for you shall strike the Arameans in Aphek, until you have consumed them."

18 तब एलीशाले भने, “काँडहरू लिनुहोस् ।” त्यसैले तिनले ती लिए । तिनले इस्राएलका राजालाई भने, “तिनले भुइँमा हान्‍नुहोस् ।” तिनले तिन पटक भुइँमा हानेपछि तिनी रोकिए ।

He said, "Take the arrows"; and he took them. He said to the king of Israel, "Strike 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 ।”

The man of God was angry with him, and said, "You should have struck five or six times. Then you would have struck Aram until you had consumed it, whereas now you shall strike Aram just three times."

20 तब एलीशा मरे, र तिनीहरूले तिनलाई गाडे । नयाँ वर्षको समयमा मोआबीहरूका नयाँ दलहरूले देशलाई लुटे ।

Elisha died, and they buried him. Now the bands of the Moabites 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 ।

It happened, as they were burying a man, that look, they spied a band; and they cast the man into the tomb of Elisha: and as soon as the man touched the bones of Elisha, he revived, and stood up on his feet.

22 अरामका राजा हजाएलले यहोआहाजको जीवनभर इस्राएललाई थिचोमिचो गरिरहे ।

Hazael king of Aram oppressed Israel all the days of Jehoahaz.

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 Jehovah was gracious to them, and had compassion on them, and had respect to them, because of his covenant with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and would not destroy them, neither cast he them from his presence as yet.

24 अरामका राजा हजाएल मरे, र तिनको ठाउँमा तिनका छोरा बेन-हदद राजा भए ।

Hazael king of Aram died; and Benhadad his son reigned in his place.

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 ।

Jehoash the son of Jehoahaz took again out of the hand of Benhadad the son of Hazael the cities which he had taken out of the hand of Jehoahaz his father by war. Joash struck him three times, and recovered the cities of Israel.
