< २ राजाहरू 25 >
1 राजा सिदकियाहको शासनकालको नवौँ वर्षको दसौँ महिनाको दसौँ दिनमा बेबिलोनका राजा नबूकदनेसर आफ्ना सबै सेना लिएर यरूशलेमको विरुद्धमा आए । तिनले यसको सामु छाउनी हाले र तिनीहरूले यसको चारैतिर घेरा हाले ।
Now in the ninth year of his rule, on the tenth day of the tenth month, Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, came against Jerusalem with all his army and took up his position before it, building earthworks all round the town.
2 त्यसैले राजा सिदकियाहको शासनकालको एघारौँ वर्षसम्म सहरलाई घेरा हालियो ।
And the town was shut in by their forces till the eleventh year of King Zedekiah.
3 त्यस वर्षको चौथो महिनाको नवौँ दिनमा सहरमा यति घोर अनिकाल पर्यो कि देशका मानिसहरूका लागि खानेकुरा भएन ।
Now on the ninth day of the fourth month, the store of food in the town was almost gone, so that there was no food for the people of the land.
4 तब सहरको पर्खाल तोडेर भित्र प्रवेश गरियो र रातमा राजाको बगैँचानेर भएका दुईवटा पर्खालको बिचको ढोकाको बाटोबाट सबै योद्धा भागे, जबकि कल्दीहरूले सहरको चारैतिर घेरा लगाई राखेकै थिए । राजा अराबाको दिशातिर गए ।
So an opening was made in the wall of the town, and all the men of war went in flight by night through the doorway between the two walls which was by the king's garden; (now the Chaldaeans were stationed round the town: ) and the king went by the way of the Arabah.
5 तर कल्दीहरूका सेनाले सिदकियाह राजालाई खेदे, र यरीहो नजिकैको यर्दन नदीका मैदानहरूमा तिनलाई भेट्टाए । तिनका सबै सेना तिनीबाट तितर-बितर भए ।
But the Chaldaean army went after the king, and overtook him in the lowlands of Jericho, and all his army went in flight from him in every direction.
6 तिनीहरूले राजालाई गिरफ्तार गरे र तिनलाई रिब्लामा बेबिलोनका राजाकहाँ ल्याए, जहाँ तिनीहरूले तिनलाई फैसला सुनाए ।
And they made the king a prisoner and took him up to the king of Babylon at Riblah to be judged.
7 तिनीहरूले सिदकियाहका छोराहरूलाई तिनकै आँखाका सामु मारे । तब तिनका आँखा तिनले निकाले, तिनलाई काँसाका साङ्लाहरूले बाँधे र तिनलाई बेबिलोनमा ल्याए ।
And they put the sons of Zedekiah to death before his eyes, and then they put out his eyes, and chaining him with iron bands, took him to Babylon.
8 अब बेबिलोनका राजा नबूकदनेसरको शासनकालको उन्नाइसौँ वर्षको पाँचौँ महिनाको सातौँ दिनमा बेबिलोनका राजाका सेवक अनि अङ्गरक्षकहरूका सेनापति नबूजरदान यरूशलेममा आए ।
Now in the fifth month, on the seventh day of the month, in the nineteenth year of Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, Nebuzaradan, the captain of the armed men, a servant of the king of Babylon, came to Jerusalem;
9 परमप्रभुको मन्दिर, राजदरबार र यरूशलेमका सबै घरहरूमा तिनले आगो लगाए । सहरका हरेक महत्त्वपूर्ण भवनमा पनि तिनले आगो लगाए ।
And he had the house of the Lord and the king's house and all the houses of Jerusalem, even every great house, burned with fire;
10 अङ्गरक्षकहरूको सेनापतिको अधीनमा रहेका बेबिलोनका सबै सेनाले यरूशलेम वरिपरिको पर्खालहरू नष्ट पारिदिए ।
And the walls round Jerusalem were broken down by the Chaldaean army which was with the captain.
11 बेबिलोनका राजालाई वेवास्ता गरेका सहरमा बाँकी बचेका मानिसहरू अनि बाँकी रहेका अरू मानिसहरूका सम्बन्धमा अङ्गरक्षकहरूका सेनापति नबूजरदानले, तिनीहरूलाई निर्वासनमा लगे ।
And the rest of the people who were still in the town, and all those who had given themselves up to the king of Babylon, and all the rest of the workmen, Nebuzaradan, the captain of the armed men, took away as prisoners;
12 तर अङ्गरक्षकहरूका सेनापतिले दाखबारी र खेतबारीमा काम गर्न सबैभन्दा गरिबहरूलाई त्यहीँ छाडिदिए ।
But he let the poorest of the land go on living there, to take care of the vines and the fields.
13 परमप्रभुको मन्दिरमा राखिएका काँसाका स्तम्भहरू, आधारहरू र काँसाको विशाल खड्कुँलोलाई कल्दीहरूले टुक्राटुक्रा पारे र काँसालाई बेबिलोनमा लगे ।
And the brass pillars in the house of the Lord, and the wheeled bases, and the great brass water-vessel in the house of the Lord, were broken up by the Chaldaeans, who took the brass to Babylon.
14 भाँडाहरू, बेल्चाहरू, सलेदाका चिम्टाहरू, चम्चाहरू र मन्दिरमा पुजारीहरूले सेवा गर्दा प्रयोग गरिने काँसाका सबै सामान पनि कल्दीहरूले लगे ।
And the pots and the spades and the scissors for the lights and the spoons, and all the brass vessels used in the Lord's house, they took away.
15 राजाका सेनापतिले खरानी उठाउने भाँडाहरू अनि सुन र चाँदीले बनेका कचौराहरू लिएर गए ।
And the fire-trays and the basins; the gold of the gold vessels and the silver of the silver vessels, were all taken away by the captain of the armed men.
16 सोलोमनले मन्दिरको लागि बनाएका दुईवटा स्तम्भ, विशाल खड्कुँलो र आधारहरूमा भएका काँसा जोख्नै सकिंदनथ्यो ।
The two pillars, the great water-vessel and the wheeled bases, which Solomon had made for the house of the Lord: the brass of all these vessels was without weight.
17 पहिलो स्तम्भको उचाइ अठार हात थियो, र स्तम्भमाथि एउटा स्तम्भ-शिर थियो । स्तम्भ-शिर तिन हात अग्लो थियो, र यो काँसाको जाली र दारिमका बुट्टाले चारैतिर भरिएको थियो । अर्को स्तम्भ र यसका जालीसमेत सबै पहिलेको जस्तै थियो ।
One of the pillars was eighteen cubits high, with a crown of brass on it; the crown was three cubits high, circled with a network and apples all of brass; and the second pillar had the same.
18 अङ्गरक्षकहरूका सेनापतिले मुख्य पुजारी सरायाह, दोस्रो दर्जाका पुजारी सपन्याह र तिन जना द्वारपाललाई लिएर गए ।
And the captain of the armed men took Seraiah, the chief priest, and Zephaniah, the second priest, and the three door-keepers;
19 सिपाहीहरूको जिम्मामा भएका अधिकारी, अनि सहरमा अझै बाँकी रहेका राजाका पाँच जना सल्लाहकारलाई तिनले सहरबाट कैद गरेर लगे । मानिसहरूलाई सेनामा भर्ती गर्ने मुख्य अधिकृत र देशमा भएका अन्य साठी जना विशिष्ट मानिसलाई पनि तिनले कैद गरेर लगे ।
And from the town he took the unsexed servant who was over the men of war, and five of the king's near friends who were in the town, and the scribe of the captain of the army, who was responsible for getting the people of the land together in military order, and sixty men of the people of the land who were in the town.
20 तब अङ्गरक्षकका सेनापति नबूजरदानले तिनीहरूलाई लगे र रिब्लामा बेबिलोनका राजाकहाँ ल्याए ।
These Nebuzaradan, the captain of the armed men, took with him to the king of Babylon at Riblah.
21 बेबिलोनका राजाले हमात देशको रिब्लामा तिनीहरूलाई मारे । यसरी यहूदा आफ्नो देशबाट निर्वासनमा लगियो ।
And the king of Babylon put them to death at Riblah in the land of Hamath. So Judah was taken away prisoner from his land.
22 बेबिलोनका राजा नबूकदनेसरले शापानका नाति, अहीकामका छोरा गदल्याहलाई यहूदामा बाँकी छोडिएका मानिसहरूमाथि निरिक्षक नियुक्त गरे ।
As for the people who were still living in the land of Judah, whom Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, did not take away, he made Gedaliah, the son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, ruler over them.
23 बेबिलोनका राजाले गदल्याहलाई राज्यपाल बनाए भनेर जब सिपाहीहरूका सबै सेनापति र तिनीहरूका मानिसहरूले सुने, तब तिनीहरू मिस्पामा गदल्याहकहाँ गए । यी मानिसहरू नतन्याहका छोरा इश्माएल, कारेहका छोरा योहानान, नतोपाती तन्हूमेतका छोरा सरायाह र माकातीका छोरा याजन्याह र तिनीहरूका मानिसहरू थिए ।
Now the captains of the armed forces, hearing that the king of Babylon had made Gedaliah ruler, came with their men to Gedaliah at Mizpah; Ishmael, the son of Nethaniah, and Johanan, the son of Kareah, and Seraiah, the son of Tanhumeth the Netophathite, and Jaazaniah, the son of the Maacathite, came with all their men.
24 गदल्याहले तिनीहरू र तिनीहरूका मानिसहरूसँग शपथ खाए र तिनीहरूलाई भने, “कल्दीका अधिकारीहरूदेखि नडराओ । यही देशमा बसे र बेबिलोनका राजाको सेवा गर, र तिमीहरूको भलो हुने छ ।”
Then Gedaliah gave his oath to them and their men, saying, Have no fear because of the servants of the Chaldaeans; go on living in the land under the rule of the king of Babylon, and all will be well.
25 तर सातौँ महिनामा एलीशामाका नाति, नतन्याहका छोरा इश्माएल जो राजकीय वंशका थिए, तिनले दस जना मानिसलाई लिएर आए र गदल्याहलाई आक्रमण गरे । मिस्पामा आफूसँग भएका यहूदाका मानिसहरू र बेबिलोनीहरूसँगै गदल्याहको मृत्यु भयो ।
But in the seventh month, Ishmael, the son of Nethaniah, the son of Elishama, of the king's seed, came with ten men and made an attack on Gedaliah, causing his death and the death of the Jews and the Chaldaeans who were with him at Mizpah.
26 तब सानादेखि ठुलासम्म सबै मानिससाथै सिपाहीहरूका सेनापतिहरू उठे, र तिनीहरू मिश्रमा गए किनकि तिनीहरू बेबिलोनीहरूदेखि डराएका थिए ।
Then all the people, small and great, and the captains of the forces, got up and went away to Egypt, for fear of the Chaldaeans.
27 यहूदाका राजा यहोयाकीन निर्वासन भएको सैँतिसौँ वर्षको बाह्रौं महिनाको सत्ताइसौँ दिनमा बेबिलोनका राजा एबील-मरोदकले यहूदाका राजा यहोयाकीनलाई झ्यालखानाबाट मुक्त गरिदिए । एबील-मरोदकले राज्य गर्न सरु गरेको वर्षमा यो भएको थियो ।
And in the thirty-seventh year after Jehoiachin, king of Judah, had been taken prisoner, in the twelfth month, on the twenty-seventh day of the month, Evil-merodach, king of Babylon, in the first year of his rule, took Jehoiachin, king of Judah, out of prison;
28 राजाले तिनीसँग दयापूर्वक कुरा गरे, र बेबिलोनमा तिनीसित भएका अरू राजाहरूलाई भन्दा तिनलाई इज्जतदार ठाउँमा बसाए ।
And said kind words to him, and put his seat higher than the seats of the other kings who were with him in Babylon.
29 एबील-मरोदकले यहोयाकीनका कैदका लुगाहरू उतारे, र यहोयाकीनले आफ्नो बाँकी जीवनकालभरि राजाको टेबुलमा बसेर नियमित रूपमा खाए ।
And his prison clothing was changed, and he was a guest at the king's table every day for the rest of his life.
30 तिनको जीवनको बाँकी समयभरि हरेक दिन खानाको भत्ता तिनलाई नियमित रूपमा दिइयो ।
And for his food, the king gave him a regular amount every day for the rest of his life.
