< २ राजाहरू 21 >
1 मनश्शेले राज्य गर्न सुरु गर्दा तिनी बाह्र वर्षका थिए । तिनले यरूशलेममा पचपन्न वर्ष राज्य गरे । तिनकी आमाको नाउँ हेप्सीबा थियो ।
Twelve years old was Menasseh when he became king, and fifty and five years did he reign in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Chephzi-bah.
2 परमप्रभुले इस्राएलका मानिसहरूको सामुबाट धपाउनुभएका जातिहरूले घिनलाग्दा कुराहरू गरेजस्तै, परमप्रभुको दृष्टिमा जे खरब थियो, तिनले त्यही गरे ।
And he did what is evil in the eyes of the Lord, after the abominable acts of the nations whom the Lord had driven out before the children of Israel.
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 ।
And he built up again the high-places which Hezekiah his father had destroyed; and he reared up altars for Ba'al, and made a grove, as Achab the king of Israel had done; and he bowed down to all the host of heaven, and served them.
4 परमप्रभुको मन्दिरमा मनश्शेले वेदीहरू बनाए, यद्यपि परमप्रभुले यस्तो आज्ञा दिनुभएको थियो, “यरूशलेममा मात्र मेरो नाउँ सदासर्वदा कायम रहनेछ ।”
And he built altars in the house of the Lord, of which the Lord had said, In Jerusalem will I put my name.
5 परमप्रभुको मन्दिरका दुईवटा चोकमा तिनले आकाशका सबै ताराहरूका लागि वेदीहरू बनाए ।
And he built altars for all the host of heaven in the two courts of the house of the Lord.
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 ।
And he caused his son to pass through the fire, and observed times, and used enchantments, and dealt with familiar spirits and wizards: he wrought much that is evil in the eyes of the Lord, to provoke 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 ।
And he set a hewn image of the Asherah that he had made in the house, of which the Lord had said to David, and to Solomon his son, In this house, and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen out of all tribes of Israel, will I put my name for ever:
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 ।”
And I will not cause any more the foot of Israel to move out of the land which I gave their fathers; only if they will observe to act in accordance with all that I have commanded them, and in accordance with all the 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 they hearkened not: and Menasseh seduced them to do what is evil more than the nations whom the Lord had destroyed before the children of Israel.
10 त्यसैले परमप्रभुले आफ्ना सेवक अगमवक्ताहरूद्वारा यसो भन्नुभयो,
And the Lord spoke by means of 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,
Forasmuch as Menasseh the king of Judah hath done these abominations, having done wickedly more than all that the Emorites had done, who were before him, and hath induced Judah also to sin with his idols:
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 ।
Therefore thus hath said the Lord the God of Israel, Behold, I will bring evil upon Jerusalem and Judah, at which both the ears of every one that heareth it shall tingle.
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 ।
And I will stretch over Jerusalem the measure-line of Samaria, and the plummet of the house of Achab: and I will wipe off Jerusalem as one wipeth off a dish, wiping it, and turning it on its face.
14 मेरो उत्तराधिकारका बाँकी रहेकाहरूलाई म फल्नेछु र तिनीहरूलाई आफ्ना शत्रुहरूका हातमा दिनेछु । आफ्ना सबै शत्रुका लागि तिनीहरू सिकार र लुटका माल हुनेछन्,
And I will forsake the remnant of my inheritance, and give them up into the hand of their enemies; and they shall become a prey and a 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 ।”
Forasmuch as they have done what is evil in my eyes, and have been provoking me to anger, from the day that their fathers came forth out of Egypt, even 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 ।
And also innocent blood did Menasseh shed in very great abundance, till he had filled [therewith] Jerusalem from one end to another; beside his sin wherewith he induced Judah to sin, to do what is evil in the eyes of the Lord.
17 मनश्शेका सम्बन्धमा भएका अरू कुरा, तिनले गरेका काम, र तिनले गरेका पाप यहूदाका राजाहरूको इतिहासको पुस्तकमा लेखिएका छैनन् र?
Now the rest of the acts of Menasseh, and all that he did, and his sin that he committed, behold, they are 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 Menasseh slept with his fathers, and was buried in the garden of his own house, in the garden of 'Uzza: and Amon his son became king in his stead.
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 ।
Twenty and two years old was Amon when he became king, and two years did he reign in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Meshullemeth, the daughter of Charuz of Yotbah.
20 तिनका पिता मनश्शेले गरेझैँ परमप्रभुको दृष्टिमा जे खराब थियो, तिनले त्यही गरे ।
And he did what is evil in the eyes of the Lord, as his father Menasseh had done.
21 आमोनले आफ्ना पिताका सबै चालको अनुसरण गरे र आफ्ना पिताले पुजेका मूर्तिहरूको पुजा गरे र तिनीहरूका सामु निहुरे ।
And he walked in all the way that his father had walked in, and served the idols that his father had served, and bowed himself down to them;
22 आफ्ना पुर्खाहरूका परमप्रभु परमेश्वरलाई तिनले त्यागे, र परमप्रभुको मार्गमा हिंडेनन् ।
And he forsook the Lord the God of his fathers, and walked not in the way of the Lord.
23 आमोनका सेवकहरूले राजाको विरुद्धमा षड्यन्त्र गरे र तिनलाई आफ्नै घरमा मारे ।
And the servants of Amon conspired against him, and put the king to death in his own house.
24 तर देशका मानिसहरूले राजा आमोनको विरुद्धमा षड्यन्त्र गर्ने सबैलाई मारे, र तिनको ठाउँमा योशियाहलाई तिनीहरूले राजा बनाए ।
And the people of the land slew all those that had conspired against king Amon; and the people of the land made Josiah his son king in his stead.
25 आमोनले गरेका अरू कुराहरूका विषयमा के ती यहूदाका राजाहरूको इतिहासको पुस्तकमा लेखिएका छैनन् र?
Now the rest of the acts of Amon which he did, behold, they are 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 they buried him in his sepulchre in the garden of 'Uzza: and Josiah his son became king in his stead.
