< २ राजाहरू 21 >

1 मनश्शेले राज्‍य गर्न सुरु गर्दा तिनी बाह्र वर्षका थिए । तिनले यरूशलेममा पचपन्‍न वर्ष राज्य गरे । तिनकी आमाको नाउँ हेप्सीबा थियो ।
Manasseh was twelve years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem fifty-five years. His mother’s name was Hephzibah.
2 परमप्रभुले इस्राएलका मानिसहरूको सामुबाट धपाउनुभएका जातिहरूले घिनलाग्दा कुराहरू गरेजस्‍तै, परमप्रभुको दृष्‍टिमा जे खरब थियो, तिनले त्यही गरे ।
And he did evil in the sight of the LORD by following the abominations of the nations that the LORD had driven out before the Israelites.
3 किनकि तिनका पिता हिजकियाले नाश पारेका उच्‍च ठाउँहरू तिनले पुनर्निर्माण गरे, र इस्राएलका राजा आहाबले गरेझैँ तिनले बालका लागि वेदीहरू बनाए, र अश्शेरा देवीको खम्बा बनाए अनि आकाशका सबै ताराहरूका सामु तिनी घोप्‍टो परे र तिनीहरूको पुजा गरे ।
For he rebuilt the high places that his father Hezekiah had destroyed, and he raised up altars for Baal. He made an Asherah pole, as King Ahab of Israel had done, and he worshiped and served all the host of heaven.
4 परमप्रभुको मन्दिरमा मनश्शेले वेदीहरू बनाए, यद्यपि परमप्रभुले यस्तो आज्ञा दिनुभएको थियो, “यरूशलेममा मात्र मेरो नाउँ सदासर्वदा कायम रहनेछ ।”
Manasseh also built altars in the house of the LORD, of which the LORD had said, “In Jerusalem I will put My Name.”
5 परमप्रभुको मन्दिरका दुईवटा चोकमा तिनले आकाशका सबै ताराहरूका लागि वेदीहरू बनाए ।
In both courtyards of the house of the LORD, he built altars to all the host of heaven.
6 तिनले आफ्नो छोरोलाई आगोमा हिंड्‍न लगाए । तिनले टुनामुना गरे र जोखना हेरे अनि मृत आत्‍माहरू र भूत आत्‍माहरूसँग बात गर्नेहरूका सल्‍लाह लिए । तिनले परमप्रभुको दृष्‍टिमा असाध्यै खराबी गरेर परमप्रभुलाई रिस उठाए ।
He sacrificed his own son in the fire, practiced sorcery and divination, and consulted mediums and spiritists. He did great evil in the sight of the LORD, provoking Him to anger.
7 आफूले बनाएका अश्शेरा देवीको मूर्तिलाई तिनले परमप्रभुको मन्दिरमा राखे । यही मन्दिरको बारेमा परमप्रभुले दाऊद र तिनका छोरा सोलोमनलाई यसो भन्‍नुभएको थियो, “मैले इस्राएलका सबै कुलबाट चुनेको यो मन्दिरमा र यरूशलेममा म मेरो नाउँ सदासर्वदाको निम्ति राख्‍नेछु ।
Manasseh even took the carved Asherah pole he had made and set it up in the temple, of which the LORD had said to David and his son Solomon, “In this temple and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, I will establish My Name forever.
8 मैले इस्राएललाई आज्ञा गरेका सबै कुरा पालन गर्न र मेरा दास मोशाले तिनीहरूलाई दिएका सबै व्यवस्था पालन गर्न तिनीहरू सावधान भए भने, मैले तिनीहरूका पुर्खाहरूलाई दिएको देशबाट तिनीहरूका खुट्टालाई फेरि यताउता घुमफिर गर्ने म पार्नेछैनँ ।”
I will never again cause the feet of the Israelites to wander from the land that I gave to their fathers, if only they are careful to do all I have commanded them—the whole Law that My servant Moses commanded them.”
9 तर मानिसहरूले यो कुरा सुनेनन्, र इस्राएलका मानिसहरूकै सामु परमप्रभुले नष्‍ट गर्नुभएका जातिहरूले भन्दा बढी खराब काम गर्न मनश्शेले तिनीहरूलाई अगुवाइ गरे ।
But the people did not listen and Manasseh led them astray, so that they did greater evil than the nations that the LORD had destroyed before the Israelites.
10 त्यसैले परमप्रभुले आफ्ना सेवक अगमवक्ताहरूद्वारा यसो भन्‍नुभयो,
And the LORD spoke through His servants the prophets, saying,
11 “यहूदाका राजा मनश्शेले यी घिनलाग्दा कुराहरू गरेको छ र तिनीभन्दा अगिका एमोरीहरूले गरेको भन्दा बढी खराब गरेको छ र यहूदालाई आफ्ना मूर्तिहरूले पाप गर्न लगाएको छ,
“Since Manasseh king of Judah has committed all these abominations, acting more wickedly than the Amorites who preceded him, and with his idols has caused Judah to sin,
12 त्‍यसकारण इस्राएलका परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर यसो भन्‍नुहुन्छ, 'हेर्, मैले यरूशलेम र यहूदामा यस्तो खराबी ल्याउन लागेको छु, कि जसले यसको बारेमा सुन्छ त्यसका दुवै कानमा गुञ्जन हुनेछ ।
this is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: ‘Behold, I am bringing such calamity upon Jerusalem and Judah that the news will reverberate in the ears of all who hear it.
13 मैले सामरियाको विरुद्धमा प्रयोग गरेको नाप्ने टाँगो र आहाबको घरानाको विरुद्धमा प्रयोग गरेको साहुलले म यरूशलेमलाई नाप्नेछु । जसरी एक जना मानिसले थाललाई माझेर त्‍यसलाई घोप्‍टो पार्छ, त्‍यसरी नै म यरूशलेमलाई सफा पार्नेछु ।
I will stretch out over Jerusalem the measuring line used against Samaria and the plumb line used against the house of Ahab, and I will wipe out Jerusalem as one wipes out a bowl—wiping it and turning it upside down.
14 मेरो उत्तराधिकारका बाँकी रहेकाहरूलाई म फल्‍नेछु र तिनीहरूलाई आफ्‍ना शत्रुहरूका हातमा दिनेछु । आफ्‍ना सबै शत्रुका लागि तिनीहरू सिकार र लुटका माल हुनेछन्,
So I will forsake the remnant of My inheritance and deliver them into the hands of their enemies. And they will become plunder and spoil to all their enemies,
15 किनकि तिनीहरूका पुर्खाहरू मिश्रदेशबाट बाहिर आएदेखि आजसम्म नै मेरो दृष्‍टिमा जे खराब छ, त्यही तिनीहरूले गरेका छन्, र मलाई रिस उठाएका छन् ।”
because they have done evil in My sight and have provoked Me to anger from the day their fathers came out of Egypt until this day.’”
16 यसबाहेक, यरूशलेमको एउटा कुनादेखि अर्को कुनासम्म मृत्युले नभरिएसम्‍म नै मनश्शेले धेरै निर्दोष रगत बगाए । अनि परमप्रभुको दृष्‍टिमा जे खराब थियो, यहूदालाई त्यही गर्न लगाएर तिनले गरेका पापको पनि थियो ।
Moreover, Manasseh shed so much innocent blood that he filled Jerusalem from end to end, in addition to the sin that he had caused Judah to commit, doing evil in the sight of the LORD.
17 मनश्शेका सम्‍बन्‍धमा भएका अरू कुरा, तिनले गरेका काम, र तिनले गरेका पाप यहूदाका राजाहरूको इतिहासको पुस्तकमा लेखिएका छैनन् र?
As for the rest of the acts of Manasseh, along with all his accomplishments and the sin that he committed, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
18 मनश्शे आफ्ना पुर्खाहरूसित सुते, र तिनको आफ्नै घरको उज्‍जाको बगैँचामा तिनलाई गाडियो । तिनको ठाउँमा तिनका छोरा आमोन राजा भए ।
And Manasseh rested with his fathers and was buried in his palace garden, the garden of Uzza. And his son Amon reigned in his place.
19 आमोनले राज्‍य गर्न सुरु गर्दा तिनी बाइस वर्षका थिए । तिनले यरूशलेममा दुई वर्ष राज्य गरे । तिनकी आमाको नाउँ मशुल्लेमेत थियो । तिनी योत्बाका हारूसकी छोरी थिइन् ।
Amon was twenty-two years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem two years. His mother’s name was Meshullemeth daughter of Haruz; she was from Jotbah.
20 तिनका पिता मनश्शेले गरेझैँ परमप्रभुको दृष्‍टिमा जे खराब थियो, तिनले त्यही गरे ।
And he did evil in the sight of the LORD, as his father Manasseh had done.
21 आमोनले आफ्‍ना पिताका सबै चालको अनुसरण गरे र आफ्‍ना पिताले पुजेका मूर्तिहरूको पुजा गरे र तिनीहरूका सामु निहुरे ।
He walked in all the ways of his father, and he served and worshiped the idols his father had served.
22 आफ्ना पुर्खाहरूका परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वरलाई तिनले त्यागे, र परमप्रभुको मार्गमा हिंडेनन् ।
He abandoned the LORD, the God of his fathers, and did not walk in the way of the LORD.
23 आमोनका सेवकहरूले राजाको विरुद्धमा षड्यन्त्र गरे र तिनलाई आफ्‍नै घरमा मारे ।
Then the servants of Amon conspired against him and killed the king in his palace.
24 तर देशका मानिसहरूले राजा आमोनको विरुद्धमा षड्यन्त्र गर्ने सबैलाई मारे, र तिनको ठाउँमा योशियाहलाई तिनीहरूले राजा बनाए ।
But the people of the land killed all those who had conspired against King Amon, and they made his son Josiah king in his place.
25 आमोनले गरेका अरू कुराहरूका विषयमा के ती यहूदाका राजाहरूको इतिहासको पुस्तकमा लेखिएका छैनन् र?
As for the rest of the acts of Amon, along with his accomplishments, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
26 मानिसहरूले तिनलाई उज्‍जाको बगैँचामा तिनकै चिहानमा गाडे, र तिनको ठाउँमा तिनका छोरा योशियाह राजा भए ।
And he was buried in his tomb in the garden of Uzza, and his son Josiah reigned in his place.
