< २ राजाहरू 4 >

1 अगमवक्ताका छोराहरूमध्ये एउटाकी पत्‍नी एलीशाकहाँ रुँदै आएर यसो भनिन्, “मेरा पति तपाईंका दास मर्नुभयो, र तपाईंका दास परमप्रभुदेखि डराउनुहुन्थ्यो भनी तपाईंलाई थाहा छ । अब मेरा दुई छोरालाई कमारा बनाउन लैजानलाई ऋणदाता आएका छन् ।”
Now a wife from among the wives of the sons of the prophets cried out to Elisha, saying, "Your servant my husband is dead, and you know that your servant feared YHWH, but the creditor has come to take for himself my two children to be his slaves."
2 त्यसैले एलीशाले तिनलाई भने, “तिम्रो निम्ति म के गरौं? घरमा तिमीसँग के छ मलाई भन ।” तिनले भनिन्, “तपाईंका दासीको घरमा एउटा भाँडोमा तेलबाहेक केही छैन ।”
Then Elisha said to her, "What shall I do for you? Tell me, what do you have in the house?" And she said, "Your servant has nothing in the house, except a small jar of oil."
3 तब एलीशाले भने, “तिम्रा छिमेकीहरूबाट रित्ता भाँडाहरू पैँचो माग्‍न जाऊ । सकेजति धेरै पैँचो माग ।
Then he said, "Go, ask for containers from outside, from all your neighbors, empty containers.
4 त्यसपछि तिमी भित्र जाऊ र तिम्रा छोराहरूलाई पनि भित्र राखेर ढोका बन्द गर, अनि ती सबै भाँडामा तेल खन्याऊ । भरिएका भाँडाहरू एकापट्टि राख ।”
Then go in and shut the door behind yourself and your sons and pour into all these containers, and you are to set each one aside when it is full."
5 त्यसैले तिनी एलीशाबाट विदा भइन्, र तिनले आफ्ना छोराहरूलाई पनि भित्र राखेर ढोका बन्द गरिन् । तिनीहरूले तिनीकहाँ भाँडाहरू ल्याए, र तिनले ती तेलले भरिन् ।
So she left him and shut the door behind herself and her sons; they kept bringing her containers, and she kept pouring.
6 जब ती भाँडाहरू भरिए तब तिनले आफ्नो छोरोलाई भनिन्, “अर्को भाँडा मकहाँ ल्याऊ ।” तर उसले तिनलाई भन्‍यो, “अब एउटै भाँडा पनि छैन।” त्यसपछि तेल आउन पनि छाड्यो ।
Now it came to pass, when the vessels were full, that she said to her son, "Bring me another container." But he said to her, "There aren't any more." Then the oil stopped flowing.
7 तब तिनी आइन् र परमेश्‍वरका मानिसलाई त्यो कुरो बताइन् । तिनले भने, “गएर तेल बेच । तिम्रो ऋण तिर, र आफ्ना छोराहरूसित आरामसित बस ।”
Then she came and told the man of God, and he said, "Go, sell the oil and pay your debt, and you and your sons can live on the rest."
8 एक दिन एलीशा शूनेममा गए जहाँ एक जना प्रतिष्‍ठित स्‍त्री बस्थिन् । उनले तिनलाई तिनीसँगै खाना खान अनुरोध गरिन् । त्यसैले जब एलीशा त्यो बाटो भएर जान्थे, तब तिनी खानको लागि त्यहाँ रोकिन्थे ।
Now it happened one day that Elisha traveled to Shunem, where there was a prominent woman, who urged him to eat some food. so whenever he passed by, he would stop in there to eat some food.
9 ती स्‍त्रीले आफ्ना पतिलाई भनिन्, “हेर्नुहोस्, अब मलाई थाहा भयो, कि यिनी परमेश्‍वरका पवित्र मानिस हुन् जो सधैँ यो बाटो हिंड्‍छन् ।
And she said to her husband, "Look now, I know that this is a holy man of God who often passes by us.
10 कौसीमा एलीशाको लागि एउटा सानो कोठा बनाऔँ, र त्यसमा एउटा खाट, टेबल, आसन र बत्ती राखौँ । तब तिनी हामीकहाँ आउँदा तिनी त्यहीँ बस्‍नेछन् ।”
Please, let's make a little room on the wall, and let's set up a bed, a table, a chair, and a lamp for him there, so that whenever he comes to us, he can stay there."
11 यसरी फेरि एक दिन आयो जतिबेला एलीशा त्‍यहाँ रोकिए, तिनी त्‍यो कोठामा बसे, र त्यहीँ विश्राम गरे ।
Now it happened one day he came there, and he turned into the upper room and rested.
12 एलीशाले आफ्नो सेवक गेहजीलाई भने, “ती शूनम्मीलाई बोला ।” त्यसले तिनलाई बोलाएपछि तिनी एलीशाको सामु खडा भइन् ।
And he said to Gehazi his servant, "Call this Shunammite." So he called for her and she stood before him.
13 एलीशाले उसलाई भने, “तिनलाई भन्, 'हाम्रो वास्ता गर्न तिमीले यो सबै कष्‍ट झेलेकी छ्यौ । तिम्रो लागि के गर्न सकिन्छ? के हामी तिम्रो लागि राजा वा सेनापतिसित कुरा गरौं'?” तिनले जवाफ दिइन्, “मेरा आफ्नै जातिको बिचमा म बस्‍दैछु ।”
And he said to him, "Say now to her, 'Look, you have gone to all this trouble for us. What can I do for you? Can I put in a good word for you to the king, or to the commander of the army?'" She answered, "I have a home among my own people."
14 त्यसैले एलीशाले भने, “त्यसो हो भने, तिनको लागि हामी के गर्न सक्छौँ त?” गेहजीले जवाफ दियो, “वास्तवमा तिनीसँग छोरो छैन, र तिनका पति बुढो भएका छन् ।”
So he said, "What then can I do for her?" And Gehazi replied, "Actually, she has no son, and her husband is old."
15 त्यसैले एलीशाले भने, “तिनलाई बोला ।” जब त्यसले तिनलाई बोलायो, तिनी ढोकामा खडा भइन् ।
Then he said, "Call her." And when he had called her, she stood in the doorway.
16 एलीशाले भने, “एक वर्षपछि यही समयमा तिम्रो काखमा एउटा छोरो हुनेछ ।” तिनले जवाफ दिइन्, “होइन, हे मेरा मालिक र परमेश्‍वरका मानिस, आफ्नी दासीसित झुट नबोल्नुहोस् ।”
And he said, "At this season, when the time comes around, you will be holding a son." And she said, "No, my lord, man of God, do not lie to your servant."
17 तर एलीशाले त्‍यो स्‍त्रीलाई भनेझैँ तिनी गर्भवती भइन् र अर्को वर्ष ठिक त्यही समयमा एउटा छोरो जन्माइन् ।
But the woman conceived, and bore a son at that season, when the time came around, just as Elisha had said to her.
18 बालक हुर्केपछि एक दिन त्यो आफ्नो बुबाकहाँ गयो जो कटनी गर्नेहरूसँगै थिए ।
And the child grew and it happened one day that he went out to his father to the harvest workers.
19 त्यसले आफ्नो बुबालाई भन्यो, “मेरो टाउको दुख्यो । मेरो टाउको दुख्‍यो । उसका बुबाले आफ्नो सेवकलाई भने, “त्यसलाई त्यसकी आमाकहाँ लिएर जाऊ ।”
And he said to his father, "My head, my head." And he said to his servant, "Carry him to his mother."
20 जब नोकरले केटोलाई उठाएर त्यसकी आमाकहाँ ल्यायो तब केटो मध्यान्हसम्म आमाको काखमा बस्यो, र त्यो मर्‍यो ।
And when he had taken him and brought him to his mother, he sat on her lap until noon, and died.
21 त्यसैले ती स्‍त्री उठिन्, र केटोलाई परमेश्‍वरका मानिसको ओछ्यानमा सुताइन्, ढोका बन्द गरेर बाहिर निस्किन् ।
Then she went up and put him on the bed of the man of God and shut the door behind him and left.
22 तिनले आफ्ना पतिलाई बोलाइन् र भनिन्, “कृपया, मलाई एक जना नोकर र एउटा गधा पठाउनुहोस् ताकि म छिटो परमेश्‍वरका मानिसकहाँ जान र फर्केर आउन सकूँ ।”
Then she called to her husband and said, "Please send me one of the servants and one of the donkeys, that I may run to the man of God and then return."
23 तिनका पतिले भने, “किन तिमी आजै उहाँकहाँ जान चाहन्छ्यौ? आज न औँसी हो, न त शबाथ हो ।” उनले जवाफ दिइन्, “यो ठिक हुनेछ ।”
But he said, "Why would you want to see him today? It is not the new moon or Sabbath." And she said, "It's alright."
24 त्यसपछि उनले गधामा काठी कसिन्, र आफ्नो सेवकलाई भनिन्, “छिटो कुदा । मैले नभनेसम्म दौडन ढिला नगर ।”
Then she saddled a donkey, and said to her servant, "Lead on; do not slow down for me unless I tell you."
25 त्यसैले तिनी गइन् र कर्मेल डाँडामा परमेश्‍वरका मानिस भएको ठाउँमा आइन् । जब परमेश्‍वरका मानिसले टाढैबाट तिनलाई देखे तिनले आफ्नो सेवक गेहजीलाई भने, “हेर्, शूनम्मी स्‍त्री आउँदैछिन् ।
So she went and came to the man of God at Mount Carmel. So it happened when the man of God saw her afar off, that he said to Gehazi his servant, "Look, there is the Shunammite.
26 तिनलाई भेट्न दौडेर जा र तिनलाई सोध, 'तिमी, तिम्रा पति र छोरोलाई सबै ठिकै छ'?” तिनले भनिन्, “ठिकै छ ।”
Please run now to meet her and ask her, 'Is it well with you? Is it well with your husband? Is it well with the child?'" And she answered, "It is well."
27 जब तिनी डाँडामा परमेश्‍वरका मानिस भएको ठाउँमा आइपुगिन् तब तिनले एलीशाको पाउ समातिन् । गेहजी तिनलाई हटाउनलाई अगाडि बढ्यो, तर परमेश्‍वरका मानिसले भने, “तिनलाई नछोऊ किनकि तिनी अत्यन्तै दुखी छिन्, र परमप्रभुले मबाट समस्या लुकाउनुभएको छ, र मलाई केही भन्‍नुभएको छैन ।”
But when she came to the man of God to the mountain, she grabbed hold of his feet. And Gehazi came near to push her away, but the man of God said, "Leave her alone, for she is in severe anguish, and YHWH has hidden it from me and has not told me."
28 तब तिनले भनिन्, “हे मेरा मालिक, मैले, तपाईंसँग छोरो मागेकी थिएँ र? मैले 'मलाई नछकाउनुहोस्' भनेकी थिइनँ र'?”
Then she said, "Did I ask a son from my lord? Did I not say, 'Do not mislead me?'"
29 तब एलीशाले गेहजीलाई भने, “यात्राको लागि लुगा लगा, र तेरो हातमा मेरो लट्ठी समात् । तिनको घरमा जा । कुनै मानिसलाई भेटिस् भने अभिवादन नगर्, र कसैले तँलाई अभिवादन गर्‍यो भने जवाफ नदे । बालकको अनुहारमा मेरो लट्ठी राखिदे ।”
Then he said to Gehazi, "Tuck your cloak into your belt, and take my staff in your hand, and go. If you meet anyone, do not greet him, and if anyone greets you, do not reply. And lay my staff on the face of the child."
30 तर बालककी आमाले भनिन्, “परमप्रभु र तपाईंको नाउँमा शपथ खाएर म भन्छु, कि म तपाईंलाई छाड्दिनँ ।” त्यसैले एलीशा उठे, र तिनको पछि लागे ।
But the mother of the child said, "As YHWH lives and as your soul lives, I will not leave you." So he arose and followed her.
31 गेहजी तिनीहरूभन्दा अगिअगि गयो र बाललको अनुहारमा लट्ठी पसार्‍यो, तर बालकले बोलेन र सुनेन । त्यसैले गेहजी एलीशालाई भेट्न फर्क्यो र तिनलाई यसो भन्यो, “बालक ब्युँझेको छैन ।”
Now Gehazi went on ahead of them and placed the staff on the face of the child, but there was no sound or response. Therefore he came back to meet him and told him, saying, "The child did not wake up."
32 जब एलीशा घरमा आइपुगे, तब बालक मरिसकेको थियो, र ओछ्यानमा शान्‍त थियो ।
When Elisha arrived at the house, look, the child was dead, lying on his bed.
33 त्यसैले एलीशा भित्र गएर बालक र आफूलाई राखेर ढोका बन्द गरे, र परमप्रभुलाई प्रार्थना चढाए ।
So he went in and shut the door on the two of them and prayed to YHWH.
34 तिनी ओछ्यानमाथि चढे र बालकमाथि सुते । तिनले आफ्नो मुख उसको मुखमा, आफ्ना आँखा उसको आँखामा, र आफ्ना हात उसको हातमा राखे । तिनले आफैलाई बालकमाथि लमतन्‍न पारे, र बालकको शरीर न्यानो भयो ।
Then he got up and lay on the child, and put his mouth on his mouth, and his eyes on his eyes, and his hands on his hands, and he stretched himself upon him, and the body of the child grew warm.
35 तब एलीशा उठे, र कोठाको वरिपरि घुमे अनि तिनी फेरि ओछ्यानमा चढे र बालकमाथि लमतन्‍न परे । बालकले सात पटक छिउँ काड्‍यो र आफ्ना आँखा खोल्यो ।
Then he returned and walked in the house once back and forth, and went up and stretched himself upon him, and the child sneezed seven times and the child opened his eyes.
36 त्यसैले एलीशाले गेहजीलाई बोलाए र भने, “शूनम्मीलाई बोला ।” त्यसले उनलाई बोलायो, र जब तिनी कोठाभित्र आइन्, तब एलीशाले भने, “तिम्रो छोरोलाई बोक ।”
Then he called to Gehazi and said, "Call this Shunammite." So he called her. When she had come in to him, he said, "Pick up your son."
37 तब एलीशाको पाउमा तिनी भुइँसम्‍मै घोप्टो परिन्, अनि आफ्नो छोरोलाई उठाइन् र बाहिर गइन् ।
Then she came in and fell at his feet and bowed herself to the ground. Then she picked up her son and left.
38 तब एलीशा फेरि गिलगालमा आए । देशमा अनिकाल परेको थियो अनि अगमवक्ताहरूका छोराहरू तिनका सामु बसिरहेका थिए । तिनले आफ्नो सेवकलाई भने, “आगोमा ठुलो भाँडो बसाल र यी अगमवक्ताहरूका छोराहरूका निम्ति जाउलो पका ।”
Now Elisha came again to Gilgal, while there was a famine in the land. And the sons of the prophets were sitting before him, and he said to his servant, "Put on the large pot, and boil stew for the sons of the prophets."
39 तिनीहरूमध्‍ये एक जना तरकारी खोज्न बारीमा गयो । त्यसले जङ्गली दाख भेट्टायो, र त्यसले जङ्गली लौका आफ्नो पोल्टाभरि जम्मा गर्‍यो । तिनीहरूले ती काटे र जाउलोमा हाले, तर ती कस्‍ता किसिमका थिए भनी तिनीहरूलाई थाहा थिएन ।
Then one of them went out into the field to gather herbs and found a wild vine, and gathered as many of its gourds as his garment would hold, and came and cut them up into the pot of stew, for he was unaware what it was.
40 मानिसहरूले खानलाई तिनीहरूले जाउलो खन्याए । पछि तिनीहरूले खाँदै गर्दा तिनीहरू चिच्‍च्याए र भने, “हे परमेश्‍वरका मानिस, भाँडामा त मृत्यु पो छ ।” त्यसैले तिनीहरूले त्यो फेरि खान सकेनन् ।
So they poured out for the men to eat. Now it happened, as they were eating of the stew, that they cried out, and said, "Man of God, there is death in the pot." And they could not eat it.
41 तर एलीशाले भने, “केही पिठो ल्याऊ ।” तिनले त्यसलाई भाँडोभित्र हाले र भने, “मानिसहरूलाई यो खान देऊ ताकि तिनीहरूले त्‍यो खानसकून् ।” तब त्‍यस भाँडोमा त्यस्तो हानिकारक कुनै कुरो बाँकी रहेन ।
But he said, "Bring some flour." And he threw it into the pot and said, "Pour it out for the people, that they may eat." And there was no harm in the pot.
42 बाल-शलीशाको कोही एक जना मानिस परमेश्‍वरकका मानिसकहाँ आयो, र त्यसले अगौटे फलबाट तयार गरिएको जौँका बिसवटा रोटी र केही अन्‍नका ताजा बाला आफ्नो बोरामा लिएर आयो । त्यसले भन्यो, “यो मानिसहरूलाई दिनुहोस् ताकि तिनीहरूले खान सकून् ।”
Now a man from Baal Shalishah came and brought the man of God bread of the first fruits, twenty loaves of barley, and fresh ears of grain in his sack. And he said, "Give to the people, that they may eat."
43 तिनको सेवकले भन्यो, “एक सय जना मानिसलाई मैले यसबाट कसरी भाग पुर्‍याउन सक्छु र?” तर एलीशाले भने, “यो मानिसहरूलाई ताकि तिनीहरूलेखान सकून्, किनकि परमप्रभु भन्‍नुहुन्छ, 'तिनीहरूले खानेछन्, र केही बच्‍नेछ' ।”
But his servant said, "What, should I set this before a hundred men?" So he said, "Give them to the people so that they may eat, for thus says YHWH, 'They will eat, and will have some left over.'"
44 त्यसैले तिनको सेवकले त्यो तिनीहरूका सामु राखिदियो र तिनीहरूले खाए अनि परमप्रभुको वचनले प्रतिज्ञा गरेझैँ केही बच्‍यो ।
So he set it before them, and they ate, and had some left over, according to the word of YHWH.
