< २ शमूएल 10 >

1 पछि यस्‍तो भयो, अम्‍मोनका मानिसहरूका राजाको मृत्यु भयो, र पछि तिनका छोरा हानून तिनको सट्टामा राजा भए ।
And it came to pass after this, that the king of the sons of Ammon died, and Hanun his son reigned in his stead.
2 दाऊदले भने, “तिनका बुबा नाहाशेले मलाई दया देखाएझैँ, म नाहाशका छोरा हानूनलाई दया देखाउने छु ।” त्यसैले दाऊदले तिनका बुबाको सम्बन्धमा हानूनलाई सान्त्वना दिन आफ्‍ना सेवकहरूलाई पठाए । तिनका सेवकहरू अम्‍मोनको मानिसहरूको देशमा पसे ।
And David said, I will show kindness to Hanun the son of Nahash, as his father showed kindness to me. So David sent by his servants to comfort him concerning his father. And David's servants came into the land of the sons of Ammon.
3 तर अम्‍मोनका मानिसहरूका अगुवाहरूलले आफ्‍ना मालिक हानूनलाई भने, “के साँच्‍चै दाऊदले तपाईंलाई सान्त्वना दिन मानिसहरू पठाएर तपाईंको बुबालाई आदर गर्दै छन् भनी तपाईं साँच्‍चै विचार गर्नुहुन्‍छ? के दाऊदले यो सहरलाई नाश गर्न यसको जासुसी गर्न र यसलाई हेर्न तिनका सेवकहरूलाई पठाएका होइनन् र?”
But the rulers of the sons of Ammon said to Hanun their lord, Think thou that David honors thy father, in that he has sent comforters to thee? Has not David sent his servants to thee to search the city, and to spy it out, and to overthrow it?
4 त्यसैले हानूनले दाऊदका सेवकहरूलाई समाते, तिनीहरूका दाह्री आधा खौरे, तिनीहरूको जाँघसम्म तिनीहरूको पोशाक काटिदिए र तिनीहरूलाई पठाए ।
So Hanun took David's servants, and shaved off the one half of their beards, and cut off their garments in the middle, even to their buttocks, and sent them away.
5 जब तिनीहरूले यो कुरा दऊदलाई बताए, तब तिनले तिनीहरूलाई भेट्न मानिसहरूलाई पठाए, किनकि यी मानिसहरू साह्रै लज्‍जित भएका थिए । राजाले भने, “तिमीहरूको दाह्री फेरि नबढेसम्म यरीहोमा नै बस र त्‍यसपचि फर्क ।”
When they told it to David, he sent to meet them, for the men were greatly ashamed. And the king said, Tarry at Jericho until your beards be grown, and then return.
6 जब अम्‍मोनका मानिसहरूले उनीहरू दाऊदको निम्ति दुर्गन्धित भएका थिए भन्‍ने थाहा पाए, अम्‍मोनका मानिसहरूले दूतहरू पठाए र बेथ-रहोब र सोबाका बिस हजार आरामी पैदल सिपाही, दश हजार सिपाहीसहित माकाका राजा र बाह्र हजार पुरुषसहित तोबका मानिसहरूलाई भाडामा लिए ।
And when the sons of Ammon saw that they had become odious to David, the sons of Ammon sent and hired the Syrians of Beth-rehob, and the Syrians of Zobah, twenty thousand footmen, and the king of Maacah with a thousand men, and the men of Tob twelve thousand men.
7 जब दाऊदले यसको बारेमा सुने, तब तिनले योआब र सिपाहीहरूका सबै फौजलाई पठाए ।
And when David heard of it, he sent Joab, and all the army of the mighty men.
8 अम्‍मोनीहरू बाहिर निस्‍के र आफ्‍नो सहरको ढोकामा युद्धको मोर्चा बाँधे, जबकि सोबा र रहोबका अरामीहरू, अनि तोब र माकाका मानिसहरू भने तिनीहरूसँगै खुल्ला मैदानमा तैनाथ भए ।
And the sons of Ammon came out, and put the battle in array at the entrance of the gate. And the Syrians of Zobah and of Rehob, and the men of Tob and Maacah, were by themselves in the field.
9 जब योआबले अगाडी र पछाडी दुवैतिरबाट युद्धको मोर्चाले आफूतिर सामना गरेको देखे, तिनले इस्राएलका केही उत्कृष्‍ट योद्धाहरूलाई छाने र तिनीहरूलाई आरामीहरूको विरुद्ध परिचालन गरे ।
Now when Joab saw that the battle was set against him in front and behind, he chose from all the choice men of Israel, and put them in array against the Syrians.
10 तिनका बाँकी मानिसलाई तिनले आफ्नो भाइ अबीशैको अधीनमा दिए र तिनले उनीहरूलाई बाहिर अम्‍मोनको फौज विरुद्ध लड्नलाई पठाए ।
And the rest of the people he committed into the hand of Abishai his brother. And he put them in array against the sons of Ammon.
11 योआबले भने, “आरामीहरू मेरो निम्ति साह्रै बलियो भए भने तिमी अबीशै मेरो उद्धार गर्नुपर्छ । तर अम्‍मोनका फौज तिम्रो निम्ति निकै बलिया भए भने, म आउने छु र तिम्रो उद्धार गर्ने छु ।
And he said, If the Syrians be too strong for me, then thou shall help me, but if the sons of Ammon be too strong for thee, then I will come and help thee.
12 बलियो होओ, र हाम्रा मानिसहरू र हाम्रा परमेश्‍वरको सहरहरूका हामी आफूलाई बलियो प्रकट गरौं, किनकि परमप्रभुले आफ्‍ना मानिसका निम्‍ति जे असल हुन्‍छ सो गर्नुहुने छ ।”
Be of good courage, and let us play the man for our people, and for the cities of our God. And Jehovah do that which seems good to him.
13 त्यसैले योआब र तिनका फौजका सिपाहीहरू अरामीहरूका विरुद्धमा युद्ध लड्न अगि बढे, जो इस्राएलका फौजका सामु भाग्‍न बाध्य भए ।
So Joab and the people who were with him drew near to the battle against the Syrians. And they fled before him.
14 जब अम्‍मोनको फौजले आरामीहरू भागेको देखे, तब तिनीहरू पनि अबीशैबाट भागे र सहरमा फर्केर गए । तब योआब अम्‍मोनका मानिसहरूबाट फर्के र यरूशलेममा आए ।
And when the sons of Ammon saw that the Syrians had fled, they likewise fled before Abishai, and entered into the city. Then Joab returned from the sons of Ammon, and came to Jerusalem.
15 जब आरामीहरूले आफूहरू इस्राएलद्वारा पराजित भएको देखे, तब उनीहरूले फेरि आफूलाई एकसाथ भेला पारे ।
And when the Syrians saw that they were put to the worse before Israel, they gathered themselves together.
16 त्यसपछि हददेजेरले यूफ्रेटिस नदी पारिका आरामी सेनाहरूलाई पनि लिन पठाए । उनीहरू हेलाममा आए र हददेजरका फौजका कमाण्‍डर शोबाक तिनीहरूको अगिअगि गए ।
And Hadarezer sent, and brought out the Syrians who were beyond the River, and they came to Helam, with Shobach the captain of the army of Hadarezer at their head.
17 जब दाऊदलाई यो कुरा भनियो, तब तिनले सबै इस्राएललाई एकसाथ भेला गरे, यर्दन तरे र हेलाममा आइपुगे । तब आरामीहरूले आफूलाई दाऊदको विरुद्धमा युद्ध मोर्चामा खडा गराए र तिनीसित युद्ध लडे ।
And it was told David. And he gathered all Israel together, and passed over the Jordan, and came to Helam. And the Syrians set themselves in array against David, and fought with him.
18 आरामीहरू इस्राएलको सामुबाट भागे र दाऊदले उनीहरूका रथका सात सय मानिस र चालिस हजार घोडचढीलाई मारे । उनीहरूका फौजका कमाण्‍डर शोबक घाइते भए र त्यहीँ मरे ।
And the Syrians fled before Israel. And David killed of the Syrians the men of seven hundred chariots, and forty thousand horsemen, and smote Shobach the captain of their army so that he died there.
19 जब हददेजेरका अधीनमा भएका सबै राजाले आफू इस्राएलद्वारा परास्‍त भएको देखे, तब उनीहरूले इस्राएलसँग शान्ति सम्झौता गरे र तिनीहरूका अधीनमा भए । यसरी अरामीहरू अम्‍मोनका मानिसहरूलाई फेर सहायता गर्न डराए ।
And when all the kings who were servants to Hadarezer saw that they were put to the worse before Israel, they made peace with Israel, and served them. So the Syrians were afraid to help the sons of Ammon any more.
