२ राजाहरू 15
1 इस्राएलका राजा यारोबामको सत्ताइसौँ वर्षमा यहूदाका राजा अमस्याहका छोरा अजर्याहले राज्य गर्न थाले ।
After Jeroboam had been ruling Israel for almost twenty-seven years, Uzziah, the son of King Amaziah of Judah, began to rule.
2 अजर्याहले राज्य गर्न सुरु गर्दा तिनी सोह्र वर्षका थिए, र तिनले यरूशलेममा बाउन्न वर्ष राज्य गरे । तिनकी आमाको नाउँ यकोल्याह थिए, र उनी यरूशलेमकी थिइन् ।
He was 16 years old when he started to rule, and he ruled in Jerusalem for 52 years. His mother was Jecoliah, from Jerusalem.
3 आफ्ना पिता अमस्याहले गरेझैँ परमप्रभुको दृष्टिमा जे ठिक थियो, तिनले त्यही गरे ।
He did things that Yahweh was pleased with, like his father Amaziah had done.
4 तापनि डाँडाका थानहरू हटाइएनन् । मानिसहरूले अझै पनि डाँडाका थानहरूमा बलि चढाए र धूप बाले ।
But, the places at the pagan shrines where they worshiped Yahweh were not destroyed, and the people continued to burn incense [to honor Yahweh] at those places [instead of in Jerusalem, the place that Yahweh had appointed].
5 परमप्रभुले राजालाई प्रहार गर्नुभयो ताकि आफ्नो मर्ने दिनसम्म नै तिनी कुष्ठरोगी भए र बेग्लै घरमा बसे । राजाका छोरा योतामले राजमहको रेखदेख गरे र देशमा जनतामाथि राज्य गरे ।
Yahweh caused Uzziah to become a leper, and he was a leper for the rest of his life. [He was not allowed to live in the palace]. He lived alone in a house, and his son Jotham ruled the country.
6 अजर्याह, तिनले गरेका सबै कामको बारेमा यहूदाका राजाहरूको इतिहासको पुस्तकमा लेखिएका छैनन् र?
[If you want to know about] everything else that Uzziah did, it is written [RHQ] in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Judah’.
7 यसरी अजर्याह आफ्ना पर्खाहरूसित सुते । तिनीहरूले तिनलाई आफ्ना पुर्खाहरूसँगै दाऊदको सहरमा गाडे । तिनको ठाउँमा तिनका छोरा योताम राजा भए ।
Uzziah died [EUP], and they buried him in [the part of Jerusalem called] ‘The City of David’, where his ancestors had been buried. Then his son Jotham officially became the king.
8 यहूदाका राजा अजर्याहको अठतिसौँ वर्षमा यारोबामका छोरा जकरियाले सामरियाम बसेर इस्राएलमाथि छ महिना राज्य गरे ।
After Uzziah had been ruling Judah for almost thirty-eight years, Zechariah, the son of Jeroboam, became the king of Israel. He ruled in Samaria [city] for [only] six months.
9 आफ्ना पुर्खाहरूले गरेझैँ परमप्रभुको दृष्टिमा जे खराब थियो, तिनले त्यही गरे । तिनी इस्राएललाई पाप गर्न लगाउने नबातका छोरा यारोबामका पापबाट फर्केनन् ।
He did many things that Yahweh considered to be evil, like his ancestors had done. He committed the same kind of sins that Jeroboam had committed, sins which led the Israeli people to sin.
10 याबेशका छोरा शल्लूमले जकरियाको विरुद्धमा षड्यन्त्र गरे, तिनलाई इब्लममा आक्रमण गरे र मारे । त्यसपछि तिनको ठाउँमा आफू राजा भए ।
Then Shallum, the son of Jabesh, made plans to assassinate Zechariah. He killed him at Ibleam [town], and then he became the king.
11 जकरियाका बारेमा भएका अरू सबैकुरा इस्राएलका राजाहरूको इतिहासको पुस्तकमा लेखिएका छन् ।
Everything else that Zechariah did is written in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Israel’.
12 परमप्रभुले येहूसँग यसो भनेर बोल्नुभएको उहाँको वचन यही थियो, “तेरा सन्तानहरू इस्राएलको राजगद्धिमा चौथो पुस्तासम्म बस्नेछन् ।” त्यस्तै हुन आयो ।
When Zechariah died, [that ended the dynasty of King Jehu]. That fulfilled what Yahweh said to King Jehu would happen: “Your son and grandson and great-grandson and great-great-grandson will all be kings of Israel.”
13 यहूदाका राजा अजर्याहको उनन्चालिसौँ वर्षमा याबेशका छोरा शल्लूमले राज्य गर्न थाले, र तिनले सामरियमा एक महिना मात्र राज्य गरे ।
Shallum, the son of Jabesh, became the king of Israel after King Uzziah had been ruling Judah for almost thirty-nine years. But Shallum ruled in Samaria for [only] one month.
14 गदीका छोरा मनहेम तिर्साबाट सामरियामा उक्ले । सामरियामा तिनले याबेशका छोरा शल्लूमलाई आक्रमण गरे। तिनले उनलाई मारे र उनको ठाउँमा आफू राजा भए ।
Then Menahem, the son of Gadi, went up from Tirzah [city] to Samaria and assassinated Shallum. Then Menahem became the king of Israel.
15 शल्लूमका बारेमा भएका अरू कुरा र तिनले गरेका षड्यन्त्रको बारेमा इस्राएलका राजाहरूको इतिहासको पुस्तकमा लेखिएका छैन ।
Everything else that Shallum did, including his killing King Zechariah, is written in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Israel’.
16 त्यसपछि मनहेमले तिफसा र तिर्साका सिमानाहरूमा भएका सबैलाई आक्रमण गरे, किनकि तिनीहरूले उनका लागि सहर खुला गरेनन् । त्यसैले तिनले त्यसलाई आक्रमण गरे र त्यस गाउँमा भएका सबै गर्भवती स्त्रीका पेट चिरे ।
While Menahem was ruling in Samaria, he completely destroyed Tappuah [village south of Samaria] and killed all the people who lived there and in the surrounding territory. He did that because the people in that city refused to surrender to him. [With his sword] he even ripped open the bellies of pregnant women.
17 यहूदाका राजा अजर्याहको उनन्चालिसौँ वर्षमा गदीका छोरा मनहेमले इस्राएलमा राज्य सुरु गरे । तिनले सामरियामा दस वर्ष राज्य गरे ।
When King Azariah had been ruling Judah for almost thirty-nine years, Menahem, the son of Gadi, became the king of Israel. He ruled in Samaria for ten years.
18 परमप्रभुको दृष्टिमा जे खराब थियो तिनले त्यही गरे । आफ्नो जीवनकालभरि तिनी इस्राएललाई पाप गर्न लगाउने नबातका छोरा यारोबामका पापबाट फर्केनन् ।
He did many things that Yahweh considered to be evil. He committed the same kinds of sins that King Jeroboam had committed, sins that led the people of Israel to sin. He continued to commit those sins for the rest of his life.
19 तब अश्शूरका राजा पूल इस्राएलको विरुद्धमा आए, र इस्राएल राज्यलाई आफ्नो हात सुदृढ पार्नलाई पुलले आफूलाई सहयोग गरोस् भनेर मनहेमले पूललाई एक हजार तोडा चाँदी दिए ।
Then King Tiglath-Pileser of Assyria came [with his army] to attack Israel. So Menahem gave him (thirty-eight tons/35,000 kg.) of silver in order that Tiglath-Pileser would help Menahem to continue to be king and rule his country more strongly.
20 अश्शूरका राजालाई मनहेमले तिर्नुपर्ने पैसा तिनले इस्राएलबाट जबरदस्ती उठाउन हरेक धनी मानिसले पचास शेकेल चाँदी तिनलाई तिर्नुपर्ने आवश्यक्ता भयो । त्यसैले अश्शूरका राजा फर्केर गए र त्यस देशमा बसेनन् ।
Menahem obtained that money from the rich men in Israel. He compelled each of them to contribute 50 pieces of silver. So Tiglath-Pileser [took that money and] went back home.
21 मनहेमको सम्बन्धमा र तिनले गरेका सबै कामको बारेमा ती इस्राएलका राजाहरूको इतिहासको पुस्तकमा लेखिएका छैनन् र?
[If you want to know more about] everything that Menahem did, it is written [RHQ] in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Israel’.
22 यसरी मनहेम आफ्ना पर्खाहरूसित सुते, र तिनका छोरा पकहीया तिनको ठाउँमा राजा भए ।
Menahem died [EUP] and was buried, and his son Pekahiah became the king of Israel.
23 यहूदाका राजा अजर्याहको पन्ध्रौँ वर्षमा मनहेमका छोरा पकहीयाले सामरियामा बसेर इस्राएलमा राज्य सुरु गरे । तिनले दुई वर्ष राज्य गरे ।
When King Uzziah had been ruling Judah for almost 50 years, Menahem’s son Pekahiah became the king of Israel. He ruled in Samaria for [only] two years.
24 परमप्रभुको दृष्टिमा जे खराब थियो, तिनले त्यही गरे । इस्राएललाई पाप गराउन लगाउने नबातका छोरा यारोबामका पापलाई तिनले छाडेनन् ।
He did many things that Yahweh considered to be evil. He committed the same kind of sins that King Jeroboam had committed, sins which led the people of Israel to sin.
25 पकहीयाको एक जना पेकह नाउँ गरेका सेवक थिए जो रमल्याहका छोरा थिए, जसले तिनको विरुद्धमा षड्यन्त्र गरे । पेकहले गिलादका पचास जना मानिस आफ्नो साथमा लिएर सामरियामा राजदरबारको गढीभित्र पकहीया, अर्गोब र अरिहलाई मारे । पेकहले पकहीयालाई मारे र तिनको ठाउँमा आफू राजा भए ।
Then one of Pekahiah’s army commanders whose name was Pekah, the son of Remaliah, planned with 50 men from [the] Gilead [region] to kill Pekahiah. They assassinated him in a fortified place in the king’s palace in Samaria. Then Pekah became the king.
26 पकहीया, तिनले गरेका कामका बारेमा ती इस्राएलका राजाहरूको इतिहासको पुस्तकमा लेखिएका छैन ।
Everything else that Pekahiah did is written in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Israel’.
27 यहूदाका राजा अजर्याहको बाउन्नौँ वर्षमा रमल्याहका छोरा पेकहले सामरियामा बसेर इस्राएलमाथि राज्य सुरु गरे । तिनले बिस वर्ष राज्य गरे ।
When King Uzziah had been ruling Judah for almost 52 years, Pekah, the son of Remaliah, became the king of Israel. He ruled in Samaria for 20 years.
28 परमप्रभुको दृष्टिमा जे खराब थियो, तिनले त्यही गरे । इस्राएललाई पाप गर्न लगाउने नबातका छोरा यारोबामका पापबाट तिनी फर्केनन् ।
He also did many things that Yahweh considered to be evil. He committed the same kind of sins that King Jeroboam had committed, sins that led the people of Israel to sin.
29 इस्राएलका राजा पेकहको समयमा अश्शूरका राजा तिग्लत-पिलेसेर आए, र तिनले इयोन, हाबिल-बेथ-माका, यानोह, केदेश, हासोर, गिलाद, गालील र नप्तालीका सबै भूमि लिए । तिनले मानिसहरूलाई बन्दी बनाएर अश्शूर देशमा लगे ।
While Pekah was the king, Tiglath-Pileser, the king of Assyria, came [with his army] and captured [the cities of] Ijon, Abel-Beth-Maacah, Janoah, Kedesh, Hazor, and the regions of Gilead, Galilee, and Naphtali. His army forced the Israeli people to leave their country and go to live in Assyria.
30 त्यसैले एलाहका छोरा होशियाले रमल्याहका छोरा पेकहको विरुद्धमा षड्यन्त्र गरे । तिनले उनलाई आक्रमण गरे र तिनलाई मारे । त्यसपछि उज्जियाहका छोरा योतामको बिसौँ वर्षमा तिनको ठाउँमा आफू राजा भए ।
Then Hoshea, the son of Elah, plotted to kill Pekah. He assassinated him when Uzziah’s son Jotham had been ruling Judah for almost 20 years. Then Hoshea became the king of Israel.
31 पेकहका सम्बन्धमा भएका अरू कुराहरू अनितिनले गरेका सबै कामको बारेमा इस्राएलका राजाहरूको इतिहासको पुस्तकमा लेखिएका छैन् ।
Everything else that Pekah did is written in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Israel’.
32 इस्राएलका राजा रमल्याहका छोरा पेकहको दोस्रो वर्षमा यहूदाका राजा अजर्याहका छोरा योतामले राज्य सुरु गरे ।
When Pekah had been ruling Israel for almost two years, Uzziah’s son Jotham began to rule Judah.
33 तिनले राज्य गर्न सुरु गर्दा तिनी पच्चिस वर्षका थिए । तिनले यरूशलेममा सोह्र वर्ष राज्य गरे । तिनकी आमाको नाउँ यरूशा थियो । तिनी सादोककी छोरी थिइन् ।
He was 25 years old when he started to rule, and he ruled from Jerusalem for 16 years. His mother was Jerusha, the daughter of Zadok.
34 परमप्रभुको दृष्टिमा जे ठिक थियो योतामले त्यही गरे । तिनले आफ्ना पिता अजर्याहले गरेका सबै उदाहरणको अनुसरण गरे ।
He did many things that pleased Yahweh, like his father Uzziah had done.
35 तापनि डाँडाका थानहरू हटाइएनन् । मानिसहरूले अझै पनि डाँडाका थानहरूका बलि चढाए र धूप बाले । योतामले परमप्रभुको मन्दिरको माथिल्लो मूल ढोका निर्माण गरे ।
But he did not destroy the places on the tops of hills where the people worshiped [Yahweh], and the people continued to burn incense there [to honor Yahweh]. Jotham’s workers built the Upper Gate of the temple.
36 योतामको सम्बन्धमा भएका अरू कुराहरू र तिनले गरेका सबै कामका बारेमा ती यहूदाका राजाहरूको इतिहासको पुस्तकमा लेखिएका छैनन् र?
[If you want to know more about] everything else that Jotham did, it is written [RHQ] in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Judah’.
37 ती दिनमा परमप्रभुले यहूदाको विरुद्धमा अरामका राजा रसीन र रमल्याहका छोरा पेकहलाई पठाउन सुरु गर्नुभयो ।
It was during the time that Jotham was the king that Yahweh sent King Rezin of Syria and King Pekah of Israel [with their armies] to attack Judah.
38 योताम आफ्ना पुर्खाहरूसित सुते र तिनका पुर्खा दाऊदको सहरमा तिनी आफ्ना पुर्खाहरूसँगै गाडिए । त्यसपछि तिनको ठाउँमा तिनका छोरा आहाज राजा भए ।
Jotham died [EUP] and was buried where his ancestors had been buried in [the part of Jerusalem called] ‘The City of David’. Then his son Ahaz became the king of Judah.
