२ राजाहरू 8

1 अब एलीशाले त्‍यस स्‍त्रीसित बात गरेका थिए जसको छोरोलाई तिनले मृत्‍युबाट फेरि जिवित पारेका थिए । तिनले उनलाई भने, “उठ र आफ्ना घरानाको साथमा जाऊ र तिमीलाई जहाँ इच्छा लाग्‍छ त्‍यहाँ अर्को देशमा गएर बस, किनकि परमप्रभुले यस देशमा सात वर्षसम्म अनिकाल ल्याउने वचन दिनुभएको छ ।”

Now Elisha had spoken to the woman whose son he had restored to life, saying, “Arise, and go, you and your household, and stay for a while wherever you can; for Yahweh has called for a famine. It will also come on the land for seven years.”

2 त्यसैले ती स्‍त्री उठिन् र परमेश्‍वरका मानिसको वचन मानिन् । तिनी आफ्ना घारानासित गइन् र सात वर्षसम्म पलिश्तीहरूको देशमा बसिन् ।

The woman arose, and did according to the man of God’s word. She went with her household, and lived in the land of the Philistines for seven years.

3 सात वर्षको अन्त्यमा ती स्‍त्री पलिश्तीहरूको देशबाट फर्किन्, अनि आफ्नो घर र जमिन फिर्ता पाउन राजाकहाँ विन्‍ति चढाउन गइन् ।

At the end of seven years, the woman returned from the land of the Philistines. Then she went out to beg the king for her house and for her land.

4 राजाले परमेश्‍वरका मानिसको सेवक गेहजीलाई यसो भन्दै थिए, “एलीशाले गरेका सबै महान् काम मलाई भन ।”

Now the king was talking with Gehazi the servant of the man of God, saying, “Please tell me all the great things that Elisha has done.”

5 तब कसरी एलीशाले मेरको बच्‍चालाई मृत्‍युबाट फेरि जिवित पारेका थिए भनी राजालाई बताइरहँदा मृत्‍युबाट फेरि जिवित भएको बच्‍चाकी आमा आफ्नो परिवार र जमिनको निम्ति बिन्ती गर्न राजाकहाँ आइन् । गेहजीले भने, “हे मेरा मालिक राजा, ती स्‍त्री यिनै हुन् र तिनको छोरो यही हो जसलाई एलीशाले मृत्‍युबाट फेरि जिवित पारेका थिए ।”

As he was telling the king how he had restored to life him who was dead, behold, the woman whose son he had restored to life begged the king for her house and for her land. Gehazi said, “My lord, O king, this is the woman, and this is her son, whom Elisha restored to life.”

6 जब राजाले त्‍यो स्‍त्रीलाई तिनको छोरोको बारेमा सोधे, तब तिनले त्‍यो कुरा उनलाई व्याख्या गरिन् । त्यसैले राजाले तिनको निम्ति यसो भनेर एक जना अधिकारीलाई खटाए, “जे तिनका थिए ती सबै अनि तिनले देश छाडेर गएको दिनदेखि अहिलेम्मको उक्‍त जमिनको उब्जनीसमेत तिनैलाई फिर्ता दिनू।”

When the king asked the woman, she told him. So the king appointed to her a certain officer, saying, “Restore all that was hers, and all the fruits of the field since the day that she left the land, even until now.”

7 एलीशा दमस्कसमा आए जहाँ अरामका राजा बेन-हदद बिरामी थिए । राजालाई भनियो, “परमेश्‍वरका मानिस यहाँ आएका छन् ।”

Elisha came to Damascus; and Benhadad the king of Syria was sick. He was told, “The man of God has come here.”

8 राजाले हजाएललाई भने, “आफ्नो हातमा उपहार लेऊ र गएर परमेश्‍वरका मानिसलाई भेट र तिनीद्वारा परमप्रभुसित यसो भनेर सल्‍लाह खोज, 'के म यस रोगबाट निको हुन्छु?'”

The king said to Hazael, “Take a present in your hand, and go meet the man of God, and inquire of Yahweh by him, saying, ‘Will I recover from this sickness?’”

9 त्यसैले हजाएल तिनलाई भेट्न गए र तिनले आफूसित चालिसवटा ऊँटमाथि राखेर दमस्कसका हरेक असल थोक उपहार लगे । हजाएल आए र एलीशाको सामु खडा भए र भने, “तपाईंका छोरा अरामका राजा बेन-हददले मलाई तपाईंकहाँ यसो भनेर पठाउनुभएको छ, 'के म यस रोगबाट निको हुन्छु'?”

So Hazael went to meet him and took a present with him, even of every good thing of Damascus, forty camels’ burden, and came and stood before him and said, “Your son Benhadad king of Syria has sent me to you, saying, ‘Will I recover from this sickness?’”

10 एलीशाले तिनलाई भने, “जानुहोस्, र बेन-हददलाई भन्‍नुहोस्, 'निश्‍चय नै तपाईं निको हुनुहुनेछ,' तर तिनी निश्‍चय नै मर्नेछन् भनी परमप्रभुले मलाई देखाउनुभएको छ ।”

Elisha said to him, “Go, tell him, ‘You will surely recover;’ however Yahweh has shown me that he will surely die.”

11 तब हजाएललाई शर्म नलागेसम्म एलीशाले तिनलाई एकटक लगाएर हेरे, अनि परमेश्‍वरका मानिस रोए ।

He settled his gaze steadfastly on him, until he was ashamed. Then the man of God wept.

12 हजाएलले सोधे, “हे मेरा मालिक, तपाईं किन रुनुहुन्छ?” तिनले जवाफ दिए, “किनकि तपाईंले इस्राएलका मानिसमाथि गर्ने खराबी मलाई थाहा छ । तपाईंले तिनीहरूका किल्लाहरू आगोमा जलाउनुहुनेछ, र तिनीहरूका युवाहरूलाई तरवारले मार्नुहुनेछ अनि तिनीहरूका बालबच्‍चालाई टुक्राटुक्रा पार्नुहुनेछ र गर्भवती स्‍त्रीहरूका पेट चिर्नुहुनेछ ।”

Hazael said, “Why do you weep, my lord?” He answered, “Because I know the evil that you will do to the children of Israel. You will set their strongholds on fire, and you will kill their young men with the sword, and will dash their little ones in pieces, and rip up their pregnant women.”

13 हजाएलले भने, “तपाईंको दास को हो जसले यति ठुलो काम गरोस्? ऊ केवल एउटा कुकुर हो ।” एलीशाले भने, “तपाईं अरामका राजा बन्‍नुहुनेछ भनी परमप्रभुले मलाई देखाउनुभएको छ ।”

Hazael said, “But what is your servant, who is but a dog, that he could do this great thing?” Elisha answered, “Yahweh has shown me that you will be king over Syria.”

14 तब हजाएल एलीशाबाट बिदा भए र आफ्ना मालिककहाँ आए जसले तिनलाई सोधे, “एलीशाले तिमीलाई के भने?” तिनले जवाफ दिए, “तपाईं निश्‍चय नै निको हुनुहुनेछ भनी तिनले मलाई बताए ।”

Then he departed from Elisha, and came to his master, who said to him, “What did Elisha say to you?” He answered, “He told me that you would surely recover.”

15 तब अर्को दिन हजाएलले कम्बल लिए र त्‍यो पानीमा चोपे, अनि त्‍यो बेन-हददको मुखमा राखिदए ताकि तिनी मरे । त्यसपछि तिनको ठाउँमा हजाएल राजा भए ।

On the next day, he took a thick cloth, dipped it in water, and spread it on the king’s face, so that he died. Then Hazael reigned in his place.

16 इस्राएलका राजा आहाबका छोरा योरामको पाँचौँ वर्षमा यहोरामले राज्‍य गर्न थाले । तिनी यहूदाका राजा यहोशापातका छोरा थिए । यहोशापात यहूदाका राजा हुँदादेखि नै तिनले राज्‍य गर्न थाले ।

In the fifth year of Joram the son of Ahab king of Israel, Jehoshaphat being king of Judah then, Jehoram the son of Jehoshaphat king of Judah began to reign.

17 यहोरामले राज्‍य गर्न सुरु गर्दा तिनी बत्तिस वर्षका थिए, र तिनले यरूशलेममा आठ वर्ष राज्य गरे ।

He was thirty-two years old when he began to reign. He reigned eight years in Jerusalem.

18 आहाबको घरानाले गरेझैँ, यहोराम इस्राएलका राजाहरूका चालमा हिंडे किनकि तिनले आहाबकी छोरीलाई विवाह गरेका थिए, र परमप्रभुको दृष्‍टिमा जे खराब थियो, त्यही तिनले गरे ।

He walked in the way of the kings of Israel, as did Ahab’s house, for he married Ahab’s daughter. He did that which was evil in Yahweh’s sight.

19 तापनि, परमप्रभुका दास दाऊदको कारणले उहाँले यहूदालाई नष्‍ट गर्न चाहनुभएन, किनकि तिनलाई सधैँ सन्तानहरू दिनेछु भनी उहाँले तिनलाई भन्‍नुभएको थियो ।

However, Yahweh would not destroy Judah, for David his servant’s sake, as he promised him to give to him a lamp for his children always.

20 यहोरामको समयमा, यहूदाको विरुद्धमा एदोम बागी भयो र आफ्‍नो निम्‍ति आफैले राजा नियुक्‍त गर्‍यो ।

In his days Edom revolted from under the hand of Judah, and made a king over themselves.

21 त्यसपछि यहोराम आफ्ना सबै रथ लिएर जाईरमा गए । जब एदोमीहरूले यहोरामलाई घेरा हाले, तब तिनका रथ सेनापतिहरू उठे र तिनीहरूलाई रातमा आक्रमण गरे। तर यहोरामका सेना भागे र आ-आफ्ना घर फर्के ।

Then Joram crossed over to Zair, and all his chariots with him; and he rose up by night and struck the Edomites who surrounded him with the captains of the chariots; and the people fled to their tents.

22 त्यसैले आजको दिनसम्म नै एदोम यहूदाको शासनको विरुद्धमा बागी भएको छ । त्यसै बेला लिब्ना पनि बागी भयो ।

So Edom revolted from under the hand of Judah to this day. Then Libnah revolted at the same time.

23 यहोराम, र तिनले गरेका सबै कामका बारेमा यहूदाका राजाहरूको इतिहासको पुस्तकमा लेखिएका छैनन् र?

The rest of the acts of Joram, and all that he did, aren’t they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?

24 यहोराम आफ्ना पुर्खाहरूसित सुते र तिनीहरूसँगै दाऊदको सहरमा गाडिए । त्यसपछि तिनको ठाउँमा तिनका छोरा अहज्याह राजा भए ।

Joram slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in David’s city; and Ahaziah his son reigned in his place.

25 इस्राएलका राजा आहाबका छोरा योरामको बार्‍हौँ वर्षमा यहूदाका राजा यहोरामका छोरा अहज्याहले राज्‍य गर्न सुरु गरे ।

In the twelfth year of Joram the son of Ahab king of Israel, Ahaziah the son of Jehoram king of Judah began to reign.

26 अहज्याहले राज्‍य गर्न सुरु गर्दा तिनी बाइस वर्षका थिए । तिनले यरूशलेममा एक वर्ष राज्य गरे । तिनकी आमाको नाउँ अतल्याह थियो । उनी इस्राएलका राजा ओम्रीकी छोरी थिइन् ।

Ahaziah was twenty-two years old when he began to reign; and he reigned one year in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Athaliah the daughter of Omri king of Israel.

27 अहज्याह आहाबको घरानाका चालमा हिंडे । आहाबको घरानाले गरेझैँ परमप्रभुको दृष्‍टिमा जे खराब थियो, तिनले त्यही गरे किनकि अहज्याह आहाबको घरानाका ज्वाइँ थिए ।

He walked in the way of Ahab’s house and did that which was evil in Yahweh’s sight, as did Ahab’s house, for he was the son-in-law of Ahab’s house.

28 रामोत-गिलादमा अरामका राजा हजाएलको विरुद्धमा लडाइँ गर्न आहाबका छोरा योरामसितै अहज्याह गए । अरामीहरूले योरामलाई घाइते बनाए ।

He went with Joram the son of Ahab to war against Hazael king of Syria at Ramoth Gilead, and the Syrians wounded Joram.

29 अरामका राजा हजाएलको विरुद्धमा राजा योरामले लडाइँ गर्दा रामोतमा अरामीहरूले तिनमा पारेको चोटबाट निको हुन तिनी यिजरेलमा फर्के । त्यसैले यहूदाका राजा यहोरामका छोरा अहज्याह आहाबका छोरा योरामलाई भेट्न यिजरेलमा झरे किनकि योराम घाइते भएका थिए ।

King Joram returned to be healed in Jezreel from the wounds which the Syrians had given him at Ramah, when he fought against Hazael king of Syria. Ahaziah the son of Jehoram, king of Judah, went down to see Joram the son of Ahab in Jezreel, because he was sick.
