< २ राजाहरू 7 >

1 एलीशाले भने, “परमप्रभुको वचन सुन्‍नुहोस् । परमप्रभु यसो भन्‍नुहुन्छ, 'भोलि यतिबेला सामरियाको मूल ढोकामा एक ग्राम चाँदीमा डेढ माना पिठो र एक ग्राम चाँदीमा तिन माना जौ बिक्री हुनेछ' ।”
Elisha said, "Hear the word of the LORD. Thus says the LORD, 'Tomorrow about this time a measure of fine flour will be sold for a shekel, and two measures of barley for a shekel, in the gate of Samaria.'"
2 तब जुन अधिकारीको हातको भरमा राजा हिंड्थे तिनले परमेश्‍वरका मानिसलाई जवाफ दिए र भने, “हेर्नुहोस्, परमेश्‍वरले स्वर्गमा झ्यालहरू बनाउनुभयो भने पनि यसो हुन सक्ला र?” एलीशाले जवाफ दिए, “तिम्रा आफ्नै आँखाले यसो भएको तिमी देख्‍नेछौ, तर तिमीले यो खान पाउनेछैनौ ।”
Then the captain on whose hand the king leaned answered the man of God, and said, "Look, if the LORD made windows in heaven, could this thing be?" He said, "Look, you shall see it with your eyes, but shall not eat of it."
3 मूल ढोकाको ठिक बाहिर कुष्ठरोग लागेका चार जना मानिस थिए । तिनीहरूले एक-अर्कालाई भने, “हामी नमरेसम्म हामी यहाँ किन बसिरहने?
Now there were four leprous men at the entrance of the gate. And they said to one another, "Why do we sit here until we die?
4 हामी सहरमा जाऔं भनौं भने, सहरमा अनिकाल परेको छ र हामी त्यहाँ मर्नेछौं । हामी यहीँ बसौँ भने पनि हामी मर्नेछौँ । अब हामी अरामीहरूका सेना भएको ठाउँमा जाऔँ । तिनीहरूले हामीलाई जिउँदै राखे भने हामी जिउनेछौँ, र तिनीहरूले हामीलाई मारे भने हामी मर्नेछौँ ।”
If we say, 'We will enter into the city,' then the famine is in the city, and we shall die there. If we sit still here, we also die. Now therefore come, and let us surrender to the army of the Arameans. If they save us alive, we will live; and if they kill us, we will only die."
5 त्यसैले अरामी छाउनीभित्र जानलाई तिनीहरू साँझपख उठे । जब तिनीहरू छाउनीको बाहिरी भागमा आइपुगे, त्यहाँ कोही पनि थिएन ।
They rose up in the twilight, to go to the camp of the Arameans. When they had come to the outermost part of the camp of the Arameans, look, there was no man there.
6 किनकि परमप्रभुले अरामी सेनालाई रथहरू, घोडाहरूको होहल्‍लाजस्‍तै— अर्को ठुलो सेनाको होहल्‍ला सुन्‍ने पार्नुभएको थियो, अनि, अनि तिनीहरूले एक-अर्कालाई भने, “इस्राएलका राजाले हित्तीहरू र मिश्रीहरूका राजाहरूलाई भाडामा लिएर हाम्रो विरुद्धमा आएका छन् ।”
For the LORD had made the army of the Arameans to hear a noise of chariots, and a noise of horses, even the noise of a great army: and they said one to another, Look, the king of Israel has hired against us the kings of the Hittites, and the kings of the Egyptians, to come on us.
7 त्यसैले सिपाहीहरू उठे र साँझमा नै भागे । तिनीहरूले आफ्ना पालहरू, घोडाहरू, गधाहरू र छाउनीलाई जस्ताको तस्तै छाडे र आफ्‍नो ज्यान बचाउन भागे ।
Therefore they arose and fled in the twilight, and left their tents, and their horses, and their donkeys, even the camp as it was, and fled for their life.
8 जब कुष्‍टरोग लागेका मानिसहरू छाउनीको बाहिरी भागमा आइपुगे, तब तिनीहरू एउटा पालभित्र पसे र खानपान गरे अनि चाँदी, सुन र लुगाहरू उठाए र गएर ती लुकाए । तिनीहरू फर्केर आए र अर्को पालभित्र पसे र त्यहाँबाट पनि लुटका माल लगे र लुकाए ।
When these lepers came to the outermost part of the camp, they went into one tent, and ate and drink, and carried there silver, and gold, and clothing, and went and hid it. Then they came back, and entered into another tent, and carried there also, and went and hid it.
9 तब तिनीहरूले एक-अर्कालाई भने, “हामीले ठिक गरिरहेका छैनौँ । आजको दिन शुभ खबरको दिन हो, तर हामी यस बारेमा मौन बसिरहेका छौँ । बिहन नभएसम्म हामीले पर्ख्यौं भने हामीमाथि दण्ड आइपर्नेछ । तब हामी अब जाऔं र राजाको घरानालाई भनौं ।”
Then they said one to another, "We aren't doing right. This day is a day of good news, and we keep silent. If we wait until the morning light, punishment will overtake us. Now therefore come, let us go and tell the king's household."
10 त्यसैले तिनीहरू गए र सहरका पालेहरूलाई बोलाए । तिनीहरूले उनीहरूलाई यसो भने, “हामी अरामीहरूका छाउनीमा गयौँ तर त्यहाँ कोही थिएन, कुनै मानिसको आवाज त्‍यहाँ सुनिएन, तर त्‍यहाँ घोडाहरू र गधाहरू बाँधिएका थिए अनि पालहरू जस्ताको तस्तै थिए ।”
So they came and called to the gatekeepers of the city; and they told them, saying, "We came to the camp of the Arameans, and, look, there was no man there, neither voice of man, but the horses tied, and the donkeys tied, and the tents as they were."
11 तब पालेहरूले त्यो खबर ठुलो स्‍वरले फैलाए, अनि त्‍यसपछि भित्र राजाको घरानालाई पनि त्‍यो कुरा बताइयो ।
The gatekeepers called out, and it was reported to the king's household within.
12 तब रातमा राजा उठे र आफ्ना सेवकहरूलाई भने, “अब अरामीहरूले हामीलाई के गरेका छन् भनी म तिमीहरूलाई भन्‍नेछु । हामी भोकाएका छौँ भनी तिनीहरूलाई थाहा छ । त्यसैले तिनीहरू छाउनीबाहिर खेतबारीमा लुक्‍न गएका छन् । तिनीहरू भन्दैछन्, 'जब तिनीहरू सहरबाहिर आउँछन्, तब हामी तिनीहरूलाई जिउँदै समात्‍ने छौँ, र सहरभित्र पस्‍नेछौँ’ ।”
The king arose in the night, and said to his servants, "I will now show you what the Arameans have done to us. They know that we are hungry. Therefore are they gone out of the camp to hide themselves in the field, saying, 'When they come out of the city, we shall take them alive, and get into the city.'"
13 राजाका एक जना सेवकले जवाफ दिए र भने, “केही मानिसहरूले सहरमा छाडिएका पाँचवटा घोडा लिएर जाऊन् । तिनीहरू इस्राएलका बाँकी जनसङ्ख्याजस्तै छन् अर्थात् अधिकांश मरिसकेका छन् । हामी तिनीहरूलाई पठाऊँ र हेरौँ।”
And one of his servants answered, "Please let some take five of the horses that remain, which are left in the city. Look, they are like the whole multitude of Israel who have already perished. Let us send and see."
14 त्यसैले तिनीहरूले घोडाहरूसँगै दुईवटा रथ लिए र राजाले तिनीहरूलाई यसो भनेर अरामीहरूको सेनाको पछि पठाए, “जाओ र हेर ।”
They took therefore two chariots with horses; and the king sent after the army of the Arameans, saying, "Go and see."
15 तिनीहरू यर्दन नदीसम्मै तिनीहरूका पछि गए र अरामीहरूले हतारमा फालेका लुगा र सामनहरूले सबै बाटो भरिएका थिए । त्यसैले सन्देशवाहकहरू फर्के र राजालाई बताइदिए ।
They went after them to the Jordan; and look, all the way was full of garments and vessels, which the Arameans had cast away in their haste. The messengers returned, and told the king.
16 मानिसहरू बाहिर निस्के र अरामीहरूको छाउनी लुटे । त्यसैले जस्‍तो परमप्रभुले भन्‍नुभएको थियो त्‍यस्‍तै भयो, एक ग्राम चाँदीमा डेढ माना पिठो र एक ग्राम चाँदीमा तिन माना जौ बेचियो ।
The people went out, and plundered the camp of the Arameans. So a measure of fine flour was sold for a shekel, and two measures of barley for a shekel, according to the word of the LORD.
17 जसको हातमा भर परेर राजा हिंड्थे ती अधिकारीलाई तिनले मूल ढोका हेर्ने जिम्मा दिएका थिए र मानिसहरूले तिनलाई मूल ढोकामा कुल्चे । राजाले परमेश्‍वरका मानिसलाई तिनको घरमा भेट्न जाँदा तिनले अगमवाणी गरेजस्‍तै तिनको मृत्‍यु भयो ।
The king appointed the captain on whose hand he leaned to be in charge of the gate: and the people trod on him in the gate, and he died as the man of God had said, who spoke when the king came down to him.
18 त्‍यसैले त्‍यस्‍तै भयो जास्‍तो परमेश्‍वरका मानिसले राजालाई यसो भनेका थिए, “यति बेलातिर सामरियाको मूल ढोकामा एक ग्राम चाँदीमा तिन माना जौ र एक ग्राम चाँदीमा डेढ माना पिठो पाइनेछ ।”
It happened, as the man of God had spoken to the king, saying, "Two measures of barley for a shekel, and a measure of fine flour for a shekel, shall be tomorrow about this time in the gate of Samaria";
19 ती अधिकारीले परमेश्‍वरका मानिसलाई जवाफ दिएका थिए, “हेर्नुहोस्, परमेश्‍वरले स्वर्गमा झ्यालहरू बनाउनुभयो भने पनि यसो हुन सक्ला र?” एलीशाले जवाफ दिएका थिए, “तिम्रा आफ्नै आँखाले यसो भएको तिमी देख्‍नेछौ, तर तिमीले यो खान पाउनेछैनौ ।”
and that captain answered the man of God, and said, "Now, look, if the LORD should make windows in heaven, might such a thing be?" and he said, "Look, you shall see it with your eyes, but shall not eat of it."
20 तिनलाई ठिक त्यस्तै हुन आयो, किनकि मानिसहरूले तिनलाई मूल ढोकामा कुल्चे र तिनी मरे ।
It happened like that to him; for the people trod on him in the gate, and he died.
