< २ राजाहरू 22 >

1 योशियाहले राज्‍य गर्न सुरु गर्दा तिनी आठ वर्षका थिए । तिनले यरूशलेममा एकतिस वर्ष राज्य गरे । तिनकी आमाको नाउँ यदीता थियो (उनी बोस्कतकी अदायाहकी छोरी थिइन्) ।
Josiah was eight years old when he began to reign, and he reigned thirty-one years in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Jedidah the daughter of Adaiah of Bozkath.
2 परमप्रभुको दृष्‍टिमा जे ठिक थियो, तिनले त्यही गरे । तिनी आफ्ना पुर्खा दाऊदका सबै मार्गमा हिंडे, र तिनी दायाँ र बायाँ लागेनन् ।
And he did that which was right in the eyes of Jehovah, and walked in all the way of David his father, and did not turn aside to the right hand or to the left.
3 राजा योशियाहको अठारौँ वर्षमा तिनले मशुल्लामका नाति, असल्याहका छोरा सचिव शापानलाई यसो भनेर परमप्रभुको मन्दिरमा पठाए,
And it came to pass, in the eighteenth year of king Josiah, that the king sent Shaphan, the son of Azaliah the son of Meshullam, the scribe, to the house of Jehovah, saying,
4 “प्रधान पुजारी हिल्कियाहकहाँ जाऊ, र परमप्रभुको मन्दिरमा ल्याइएको रुपियाँ-पैसा जसलाई मन्दिरका पहरादारहरूले मानिसहरूबाट जम्मा गरेका छन्, त्‍यो गन्‍न तिनलाई भन ।
Go up to Hilkiah the high priest that he may sum the money which is brought into the house of Jehovah, which the keepers of the threshold have gathered of the people.
5 परमप्रभुको मन्दिरको रेखदेख गर्ने मानिसहरूका हातमा त्‍यो दिनू, र तिनीहरूले परमप्रभुको मन्दिर मर्मत गर्ने कारिन्‍दाहरूलाई मन्‍दिरको मरम्‍मत गर्ने कामको निम्‍ति त्‍यो देऊन् ।
And let them deliver it into the hand of the workmen who have the oversight of the house of Jehovah. And let them give it to the workmen who are in the house of Jehovah, to repair the broken parts of the house,
6 मन्दिरको मर्मत गर्ने सिकर्मीहरू, निर्माण गर्नेहरू, र डकर्मीहरूलाई अनि काठपात किन्‍न र ढुङ्गा काटनलाई तिनीहरूले त्यो रुपियाँ-पैसा देऊन् ।”
to the carpenters, and to the builders, and to the masons, and for buying timber and hewn stone to repair the house.
7 तर तिनीहरूलाई दिइएको रुपियाँ-पैसाको हरहिसाब लिइएन किनकि तिनीहरूले यो कामलाई विश्‍वासका साथ सम्हालेका थिए ।
However there was no reckoning made with them of the money that was delivered into their hand, for they dealt faithfully.
8 प्रधान पुजारी हिल्कियाहले सचिव शापानलाई भने, “मैले परमप्रभुको मन्दिरमा व्यवस्थाको पुस्तक भेट्टाएको छु ।” त्यसैले हिल्कियाहले त्यो पुस्तक शापानलाई दिए, र तिनले यो पढे ।
And Hilkiah the high priest said to Shaphan the scribe, I have found the book of the law in the house of Jehovah. And Hilkiah delivered the book to Shaphan, and he read it.
9 शापानले त्यो किताब राजाकहाँ लगे, र तिनलाई यसो भनी विवरण दिए, “तपाईंका दासहरूले मन्दिरमा भेट्टाइएका रुपियाँ-पैसा खर्च गरेका छन्, र तिनीहरूले यो परमप्रभुको मन्दिरको रेखदेख गर्ने कारिन्‍दहरूका हातमा दिएका छन् ।”
And Shaphan the scribe came to the king, and brought the king word again, and said, Thy servants have emptied out the money that was found in the house, and have delivered it into the hand of the workmen who have the oversight of the house of Jehovah.
10 तब सचिव शापानले राजालाई भने, “प्रधान पुजारी हिल्कियाहले मलाई एउटा पुस्तक दिएका छन् ।” तब शापानले त्यो राजाको लागि पढे ।
And Shaphan the scribe told the king, saying, Hilkiah the priest has delivered to me a book. And Shaphan read it before the king.
11 जब राजाले व्यवस्थाका वचनहरू सुने तिनले आफ्ना लुगा च्याते ।
And it came to pass, when the king had heard the words of the book of the law, that he tore his clothes.
12 राजाले पुजारी हिल्कियाह, शापानका छोरा अहीकाम, मीकायाका छोरा अक्बोर, सचिव शापान र राजाका आफ्नै सेवक असायाहलाई हुकुम गरे,
And the king commanded Hilkiah the priest, and Ahikam the son of Shaphan, and Achbor the son of Micaiah, and Shaphan the scribe, and Asaiah the king's servant, saying,
13 “जाओ, र यस पुस्तकमा पाइएका वचनहरूको कारणले मेरो लागि र सारा यहूदाका लागि परमप्रभुको सल्‍लाह खोज । किनकि हाम्रा विरुद्धमा भएको परमप्रभुको क्रोध भयानक छ, किनभने यस पुस्तकमा भएका हाम्रा सम्‍बन्‍धका वचनलाई हाम्रा पुर्खाहरूले जसरी पालन गर्नुपर्थ्‍यो त्‍यसरी तिनीहरूले गरेनन् ।”
Go ye, inquire of Jehovah for me, and for the people, and for all Judah, concerning the words of this book that is found, for great is the wrath of Jehovah that is kindled against us, because our fathers have not hearkened to the words of this book to do according to all that which is written concerning us.
14 त्यसैले पुजारी हिल्कियाह, अहीकाम, अक्बोर, शापान र असायाह अगमवादिनी हुल्दाकहाँ गए । उनी दरबारका लुगाफाटो हेरचाह गर्ने हरहसका नाति, तिक्भाका छोरा शल्लूमकी पत्‍नी थिइन् । (उनी यरूशलेमको दोस्रो टोलमा बस्थिन्) । तिनीहरूले उनीसित कुरा गरे ।
So Hilkiah the priest, and Ahikam, and Achbor, and Shaphan, and Asaiah, went to Huldah the prophetess, the wife of Shallum the son of Tikvah, the son of Harhas, keeper of the wardrobe (now she dwelt in Jerusalem in the second quarter), and they conversed with her.
15 उनले तिनीहरूलाई भनिन्, “इस्राएलका परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर यसो भन्‍नुहुन्छ, 'तिमीहरूलाई मकहाँ पठाउने मानिसलाई भन्,
And she said to them, Thus says Jehovah, the God of Israel: Tell ye the man who sent you to me,
16 “परमप्रभु यसो भन्‍नुहुन्छः हेर्, यहूदाका राजाले यस पुस्तकमा पढेअनुसार यस ठाउँ र यसका बासिन्दाहरूमा म विपत्ति ल्याउनेछु ।
Thus says Jehovah, Behold, I will bring evil upon this place, and upon the inhabitants of it, even all the words of the book which the king of Judah has read.
17 किनकि तिनीहरूले मलाई त्यागे अनि अन्य देवताहरूलाई धूप बाले, यसरी तिनीहरूले गरेका सबै कामले तिनीहरूले मलाई रिस उठाए— यसकारण यस ठाउँको विरुद्धमा मेरो क्रोध दन्केको छ, र यो निभाइने छैन' ।”
Because they have forsaken me, and have burned incense to other gods, that they might provoke me to anger with all the work of their hands, therefore my wrath shall be kindled against this place, and it shall not be quenched.
18 तर परमप्रभुको इच्छा जान्‍न तिमीहरूलाई पठाउने यहूदाका राजालाई चाहिं तिमीहरूले यसो भन, 'तपाईंले सुन्‍नुभएको वचनको विषयमा इस्राएलका परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर यसो भन्‍नुहुन्छः
But to the king of Judah, who sent you to inquire of Jehovah, thus shall ye say to him, Thus says Jehovah, the God of Israel: As concerning the words which thou have heard,
19 तिनीहरू उजाड र श्रापित हुनेछन् भनी मैले यस ठाउँ र यसका बासिन्दाहरूको विरुद्धमा भनेको सुनेर तैँले आफ्‍नो ह्रदय कोमल बनाएको र तैँले परमप्रभुको सामु आफैलाई विनम्र तुल्याएको अनि तैँले आफ्ना लुगा च्यातेको र मेरो सामु रोएका हुनाले मैले तेरो कुरा पनि सुनेको छु—यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो ।
because thy heart was tender, and thou humbled thyself before Jehovah when thou heard what I spoke against this place, and against the inhabitants of it, that they should become a desolation and a curse, and have torn thy clothes, and wept before me, I also have heard thee, says Jehovah.
20 हेर्, म तँलाई तेरा पुर्खाहरूसित जम्मा गर्नेछु, र तँ शान्तिसित तेरो चिहानमा जानेछस् । मैले यस ठाउँमा ल्याउने सबै विपत्तिलाई तेरा आँखाले देख्‍नेछैनस् । यसरी मानिसहरूले राजाकहाँ यो सन्देश लिएर गए ।
Therefore, behold, I will gather thee to thy fathers, and thou shall be gathered to thy grave in peace, neither shall thine eyes see all the evil which I will bring upon this place. And they brought the king word again.
