२ शमूएल 10
1 पछि यस्तो भयो, अम्मोनका मानिसहरूका राजाको मृत्यु भयो, र पछि तिनका छोरा हानून तिनको सट्टामा राजा भए ।
Now after this, death came to the king of the children of Ammon, and Hanun, his son, became king in his place.
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 be a friend to Hanun, the son of Nahash, as his father was a friend to me. So David sent his servants, to give him words of comfort on account of his father. And David's servants came into the land of the children 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 chiefs of the children of Ammon said to Hanun their lord, Does it seem to you that David is honouring your father by sending comforters to you? has he not sent his servants to go through the town and make secret observation of it, and overcome 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 after cutting off half the hair on their chins, and cutting off the skirts of their robes up to the middle, he 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 David had news of it, he sent men out with the purpose of meeting them on their way, for the men were greatly shamed: and the king said, Go to Jericho till your hair is long again, and then come back.
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 children of Ammon saw that they had made themselves hated by David, they sent to the Aramaeans of Beth-rehob and Zobah, and got for payment twenty thousand footmen, and they got from the king of Maacah a thousand men, and from Tob twelve thousand.
7 जब दाऊदले यसको बारेमा सुने, तब तिनले योआब र सिपाहीहरूका सबै फौजलाई पठाए ।
And hearing of this, David sent Joab and all the army and the best fighting-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 children of Ammon came out and put their forces in position at the way into the town: and the Aramaeans of Zobah and of Rehob, with 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 their forces were in position against him in front and at his back, he took the best of the men of Israel and put them in line against the Aramaeans;
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 put in position against the children of Ammon, with Abishai, his brother, at their head.
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 Aramaeans are stronger and get the better of me, then you are to come to my help; but if the children of Ammon get the better of you, I will come to your help.
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 ।”
Take heart, and let us be strong for our people and for the towns of our God, and may the Lord do what seems good to him.
13 त्यसैले योआब र तिनका फौजका सिपाहीहरू अरामीहरूका विरुद्धमा युद्ध लड्न अगि बढे, जो इस्राएलका फौजका सामु भाग्न बाध्य भए ।
Then Joab and the people with him went forward to the fight against the Aramaeans, and they went in flight 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 children of Ammon saw the flight of the Aramaeans, they themselves went in flight from Abishai, and came into the town. So Joab went back from fighting the children of Ammon and came to Jerusalem.
15 जब आरामीहरूले आफूहरू इस्राएलद्वारा पराजित भएको देखे, तब उनीहरूले फेरि आफूलाई एकसाथ भेला पारे ।
And when the Aramaeans saw that Israel had overcome them, they got 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 Hadadezer sent for the Aramaeans who were on the other side of the River: and they came to Helam, with Shobach, the captain of Hadadezer's army, 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 word of this was given to David: and he got all Israel together and went over Jordan and came to Helam. And the Aramaeans put their forces in position against David, and made an attack on 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 Aramaeans went in flight before Israel; and David put to the sword the men of seven hundred Aramaean war-carriages and forty thousand footmen, and Shobach, the captain of the army, was wounded, and came to his death 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 of Hadadezer saw that they were overcome by Israel, they made peace with Israel and became their servants. So the Aramaeans, in fear, gave no more help to the children of Ammon.
