२ शमूएल 13

1 यसपछि यस्‍तो भयो, दाऊदका छोरा अमनोन आफ्नी सुन्दरी झट्केली बहिनी तामारप्रति धेरै आकर्षित भए, जो दाऊदका अर्को छोरा अबशालोमकी आफ्‍नै बहिनी थिइन् ।

And it came to pass after this, that Absalom the son of David had a fair sister, whose name was Tamar; and Amnon the son of David loved her.

2 अमनोन यति निराश भए कि आफ्‍नी बहिनी तामारको कारणले तिनी बिरामी परे । उनी कन्या थिइन्, र यसैले उनलाई कुनै कुरा गर्न अमनोनलाई असम्भवजस्तै भयो ।

And Amnon was so distressed that he fell sick because of his sister Tamar; for she was a virgin; and it seemed hard to Amnon to do any thing unto her.

3 तर अमनोनका एक जना मित्र थिए जसको नाम योनादाब थियो। तिनी दाऊदका दाजु शिमाहका छोरा थिए । योनादाब साह्रै धूर्त मानिस थिए ।

But Amnon had a friend, whose name was Jonadab, the son of Shimeah David's brother; and Jonadab was a very subtle man.

4 योनादाबले अमनोनलाई भने, 'ए राजकुमार, तिमी किन हरेक बिहान निराश हुन्‍छौ? के तिमी मलाई भन्‍दैनौ?” यसैले अमनोनले तिनलाई जवाफ दिए, “मेरो भाइ अबशालोमकी बहिनी तामारलाई म प्रेम गर्छु ।”

And he said unto him: 'Why, O son of the king, art thou thus becoming leaner from day to day? wilt thou not tell me?' And Amnon said unto him: 'I love Tamar, my brother Absalom's sister.'

5 तब योनादाबले तिनलाई भने, “आफ्‍नो ओछ्‍यान सुतिराख र बिरामी भएको बहाना गर । जब तिम्रो बुबाले तिमीलाई हेर्न आउँछन्, तब उनलाई भन, 'कृपया मलाई केही खाने कुरा दिन र मेरो सामु ती पकाउन कृपया मेरी बहिनी तामारलाई पठाइदिनुहोस्, ताकि म त्‍यो हेर्न सकूँ र त्‍यो उनको हातबाट खान सकूँ ।”

And Jonadab said unto him: 'Lay thee down on thy bed, and feign thyself sick; and when thy father cometh to see thee, say unto him: Let my sister Tamar come, I pray thee, and give me bread to eat, and dress the food in my sight, that I may see it, and eat it at her hand.'

6 त्यसैले अमनोन पल्टिबसे र बिरामी भएको बहाना गरे । जब राजा तिनलाई हेर्न आए, तब अमनोनले राजालाई भने, “कृपया, मेरी बहिनी तामारलाई मेरो बिरामीपनको निम्ति मेरो सामु खाना बनाउन पठाइदिनुहोस् ताकि म उनको हातबाट खान सकूँ ।”

So Amnon lay down, and feigned himself sick; and when the king was come to see him, Amnon said unto the king: 'Let my sister Tamar come, I pray thee, and make me a couple of cakes in my sight, that I may eat at her hand.'

7 अनि दाऊदले आफ्नो दरबारमा तमारलाई खबर पठाए, “अहिले तिम्रो दाजु अमनोनको घरमा जाऊ र तिनको निम्ति खाना तयार पारिदेऊ ।”

Then David sent home to Tamar, saying: 'Go now to thy brother Amnon's house, and dress him food.'

8 त्यसैले तामार आफ्‍नो दाजु अमनोनको घरमा गइन् जहाँ तिनी पल्टिरहेका थिए । उनले पिठो लिइन् र तिनले देख्‍ने गरी पिठो मुछिन् र उनले रोटी पकाइन् ।

So Tamar went to her brother Amnon's house; and he was lying down. And she took dough, and kneaded it, and made cakes in his sight, and did bake the cakes.

9 उनले तावा लिइन् र तिनलाई रोटी दिइन्, तर तिनले खान इन्कार गरे । त्‍यसपछि अमनोनले त्यहाँ भएका अरूलाई भने, “हरेकलाई बाहिर, मबाट टाढा पठाऊ ।” त्यसैले हरेक व्‍यक्‍ति बाहिर गए ।

And she took the pan, and poured them out before him; but he refused to eat. And Amnon said: 'Have out all men from me.' And they went out every man from him.

10 यसैले अमनोनले तामारलाई भने, “खाना मेरो कोठामा ल्याऊ ताकि म तिम्रो हातबाट खान सकूँ ।” यसैले आफूले बनाएको रोटी तामारले लिइन् र त्‍यो तिनका दाजु अमनोनको कोठाभित्र लगिदिइन् ।

And Amnon said unto Tamar: 'Bring the food into the chamber, that I may eat of thy hand.' And Tamar took the cakes which she had made, and brought them into the chamber to Amnon her brother.

11 जब उनले तिनकहाँ खाना ल्याएकी थिइन्, तब तिनले उनको हात समाते र उनलाई भने, “मेरी बहिनी, आऊ, मसँग सुत ।”

And when she had brought them near unto him to eat, he took hold of her, and said unto her: 'Come lie with me, my sister.'

12 उनले तिनलाई जवाफ दिइन्, “होइन, मेरो दाजु, मलाई कर नलगाउनुहोस्, किनकि इस्राएलमा यस्तो कुनै कुरा गर्नुहुँदैन । यस्तो घोर दुष्‍ट कुरा नगर्नुहोस् ।

And she answered him: 'Nay, my brother, do not force me; for no such thing ought to be done in Israel; do not thou this wanton deed.

13 मैले आफ्‍नो लाजबाट कसरी मुक्‍त हुन सक्‍छु र? तपाईंको बारेमा नि? तपाईं इस्राएलमा एक जना मूर्खजस्तै हुनुहुने छ । अब कृपया राजासँग कुरा गर्नुहोस्, किनकि उहाँले मलाई तपाईंबाट अलग गर्नुहुन्‍न ।”

And I, whither shall I carry my shame? and as for thee, thou wilt be as one of the base men in Israel. Now therefore, I pray thee, speak unto the king; for he will not withhold me from thee.'

14 तापनि अमनोनले उनको कुरा सुनेनन् । तिनी तामारभन्दा बलिया भएका हुनाले, तिनले उनलाई समाते र तिनी उनीसित सुते ।

Howbeit he would not hearken unto her voice; but being stronger than she, he forced her, and lay with her.

15 त्‍यसपछि अमनोनले तामारलाई अत्यान्‍तै घृणा गरे । तिनले उनलाई इच्‍छा गरेकोभन्दा पनि धेरै घृणा तिनले उनलाई गरे । अमनोनले उनलाई भने, “उठ् र जा ।”

Then Amnon hated her with exceeding great hatred; for the hatred wherewith he hated her was greater than the love wherewith he had loved her. And Amnon said unto her: 'Arise, be gone.'

16 तर उनले तिनलाई जवाफ दिइन्, “होइन! मलाई निकाल्‍ने कुरा त ठुलो दुष्‍टता हो जुन तपाईंले मलाई गर्नुभएको कुराभन्दा पनि झन् खराब कुरा हो ।” तर अमनोनले उनको कुरा सुनेनन् ।

And she said unto him: 'Not so, because this great wrong in putting me forth is worse than the other that thou didst unto me.' But he would not hearken unto her.

17 बरु, तिनले आफ्नो व्यक्‍तिगत सेवकलाई बोलाए र भने, “यो स्‍त्रीलाई मबाट हटाओ र त्‍यसलाई निकालेपछि ढोका बन्‍द गरिदेओ ।”

Then he called his servant that ministered unto him, and said: 'Put now this woman out from me, and bolt the door after her.' —

18 तब तिनको सेवकले उनलाई बाहिर ल्यायो र उनलाई निकालेपछि ढोका बन्‍द गरिदियो । तामारले धेरै बुट्टादार लुगा लगाइरहेकी थिइन् किनभने राजाका कन्या छोरीहरूले त्यसरी लगाउँछन् ।

Now she had a garment of many colours upon her; for with such robes were the king's daughters that were virgins apparelled. — And his servant brought her out, and bolted the door after her.

19 तामारले आफ्नो टाउकोमा खरानी हालिन् र आफ्नो लुगा च्यातिन् । उनले आफ्नो हात शिरमाथि राखिन् र उनी ठुलो सोरले रुँदै हिंडेर गइन् ।

And Tamar put ashes on her head, and rent her garment of many colours that was on her; and she laid her hand on her head, and went her way, crying aloud as she went.

20 उनका दाजु अब्शालोमले उनलाई भने, “के तिम्रो दाजु अमनोन तिमीसँगै थिए? मेरी बहिनी, अब चूपचाप बस । तिनी तिम्रै दाजु हुन् । यस कुरालाई मनमा नलेऊ ।” त्यसैले तामार आफ्‍नो दाजुको घरमा एक्‍लै बसिन् ।

And Absalom her brother said unto her: 'Hath Amnon thy brother been with thee? but now hold thy peace, my sister: he is thy brother; take not this thing to heart.' So Tamar remained desolate in her brother Absalom's house.

21 तर जब राजा दाऊदले यी सबै कुरा सुने, तब तिनी रिसले चुर भए ।

But when king David heard of all these things, he was very wroth.

22 अब्शालोमले अमनोनलाई केही पनि भनेनन्, किनकि तिनले आफ्नो बहिनीलाई जे गरेका थिए र तिनले जसरी आफ्नो बहिनी तामारलाई अपमान गरेका थिए, त्यसको निम्ति अब्शालोमले तिनलाई घृणा गरे ।

And Absalom spoke unto Amnon neither good nor bad; for Absalom hated Amnon, because he had forced his sister Tamar.

23 पुरा दुई वर्षपछि यस्‍तो भयो, अब्शालोमले एफ्राइम नजिकै रहेको बाल‍हासोरमा भेडको ऊन कत्रिए र अब्शालोमले राजाका सबै छोरालाई निमन्त्रणा दिए ।

And it came to pass after two full years, that Absalom had sheep-shearers in Baal-hazor, which is beside Ephraim; and Absalom invited all the king's sons.

24 अब्शालोम राजाकहाँ गए र भने, “हे्र्नुहोस्, तपाईंको दासले भेडाको ऊन कत्रन लगेको छ । कृपया, राजा र उहाँका सेवकहरू हजुरका दासकहाँ सवारी होस् ।”

And Absalom came to the king, and said: 'Behold now, thy servant hath sheep-shearers; let the king, I pray thee, and his servants go with thy servant.'

25 राजाले अब्शालोमलाई जवाफ दिए, “होइन, मेरो छोरो, हामी सबै जना जानुहुँदैन किनभने तिम्रो निम्ति हामी बोझ हुन्छौं ।” अब्शालोमले राजालाई बिन्ती गरे, तर तिनी गएनन्। बरु तिनले उनलाई आशिष् दिए ।

And the king said to Absalom: 'Nay, my son, let us not all go, lest we be burdensome unto thee.' And he pressed him; howbeit he would not go, but blessed him.

26 तब अब्शालोमले भने, “होइन भने, मेरो दाजु अमनोनलाई मसँग जान दिनुहोस् ।” राजाले उनलाई भने, “अमनोन तिमीसँग किन जाने नि?”

Then said Absalom: 'If not, I pray thee, let my brother Amnon go with us.' And the king said unto him: 'Why should he go with thee?'

27 अब्शालोमले दाऊदलाई कर गरे, र तिनले अमनोन र सबै राजकुमारलाई उनीसित जान दिए ।

But Absalom pressed him, and he let Amnon and all the king's sons go with him.

28 अब्शालोमले उनका सेवकहरूलाई यसो भनेर आदेश दिए, “ध्यानपूर्वक सुन । जब अमनोनलाई मद्यले असर गर्न थाल्छ र जब म तिमीहरूलाई भन्‍छु, ' अमनोनलाई आक्रमण गर,' तब त्यसलाई मार । नडराऊ । के तिमीहरूलाई मैले आज्ञा गरेको होइन र? साहसी र आँटिलो होओ?”

And Absalom commanded his servants, saying: 'Mark ye now, when Amnon's heart is merry with wine; and when I say unto you: Smite Amnon, then kill him, fear not; have not I commanded you? be courageous, and be valiant.'

29 त्यसैले अबशालोमका सेवकहरूले उनले आज्ञा गरेबमोजिम नै अमनोनलाई गरे । तब सबै राजकुमार उठे र सबैले आ-आफ्नो कच्‍चर चढे र भागे ।

And the servants of Absalom did unto Amnon as Absalom had commanded. Then all the king's sons arose, and every man got him up upon his mule, and fled.

30 यसैले यस्‍तो भयो, जब तिनीहरू बाटोमै थिए, तब दाऊदकहाँ यसो भन्‍ने खबर आयो, “अब्शालोमले सबै राजकुमारलाई मरेका छन् र त्‍यहाँ एक जना पनि बाँचेका छैनन् ।”

And it came to pass, while they were in the way, that the tidings came to David, saying: 'Absalom hath slain all the king's sons, and there is not one of them left.'

31 त्यसपछि राजा उठे र आफ्नो लुगा च्याते र भुईंमा पसारो परे । तिनका सबै सेवकले पनि आआफ्ना लुगा च्याते र छेउमा खडा भए ।

Then the king arose, and rent his garments, and lay on the earth; and all his servants stood by with their clothes rent.

32 दाऊदका दाजु शिमाहका छोरा योनादाबले जवाफ दिए र भने, “तिनीहरूले सबै जवानलाई मारेका छन् भनेका कुरामा मेरा मालिकले विश्‍वास नगर्नुहोस्, किनकि अमनोन मात्र मरेका छन् । अमनोनले अब्शालोमकी बहिनी तामारलाई दुर्व्यवहार गरेकै दिनदेखि तिनले यो योजना बनाएका छन् ।

And Jonadab, the son of Shimeah David's brother, answered and said: 'Let not my lord suppose that they have killed all the young men the king's sons; for Amnon only is dead; for by the appointment of Absalom this hath been determined from the day that he forced his sister Tamar.

33 यसकरण मेरो मालिक राजाले यो खबरलाई राजाका सबै छोराहरू मरेका छन् भनी विश्‍वास गर्नको निम्ति मनमा नलिनुहोस्, किनकि अमनोन मात्र मरेका छन् ।”

Now therefore let not my lord the king take the thing to his heart, to think that all the king's sons are dead; for Amnon only is dead.'

34 अब्शालोम भागे । रक्षक भएका एक जना सेवकले हेरे र आफ्‍नो पश्‍चिमतिरको पहाडको बाटोमा धेरै जना मानिस आइरहेको देखे ।

But Absalom fled. And the young man that kept the watch lifted up his eyes, and looked, and, behold, there came much people in a roundabout way by the hill-side.

35 तब योनादाबले राजालाई भने, “हे्र्नुहोस्, राजकुमारहरू आउँदै छन् । यो तपाईंको दासले भनेजस्तै हो ।”

And Jonadab said unto the king: 'Behold, the king's sons are come; as thy servant said, so it is.'

36 अनि यस्‍तो भयो, जब तिनले बोलिसके तब राजकुमारहरू आइपुगे र ठुलो सोर गरे र रोए । राजा र तिनका सेवकहरू पनि धुरुधुरु रोए ।

And it came to pass, as soon as he had made an end of speaking, that, behold, the king's sons came, and lifted up their voice, and wept; and the king also and all his servants wept very sore.

37 तर अब्शालोम भागे र गशूरका राजा अम्मीहूदका छोरा तल्मैकहाँ गए । दाऊदले आफ्‍नो छोराको निम्ति हरेक दिन विलाप गरे ।

But Absalom fled, and went to Talmai the son of Ammihud, king of Geshur. And David mourned for his son every day.

38 यसैले अब्शालोम भागे र गशूरमा गए, जहाँ तिनी तीन वर्षसम्म बसे ।

So Absalom fled, and went to Geshur, and was there three years.

39 दाऊद राजाको मनले अब्शालोमलाई भेट्न जाने तीव्र इच्‍छा गर्‍यो, किनकि तिनी अमनोन र उनको मृत्युको बारेमा सान्त्वना पाएका थिए ।

And the soul of king David failed with longing for Absalom; for he was comforted concerning Amnon, seeing he was dead.
