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 ।
David’s son Absalom had a beautiful sister named Tamar. Another of David’s sons, Amnon, was attracted to Tamar.
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 ।
He wanted [to have sex with] [EUP] his half-sister very much, with the result that he made himself sick [thinking about her all the time]. But it was not possible for Amnon to get her, because she was a virgin, [so they kept men away from 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 named Jonadab, who was the son of David’s brother Shimeah. Jonadab was a very crafty/shrewd 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 ।”
[One day] Jonadab said to Amnon, “You are the king’s son, but every day I see that [RHQ] you seem very depressed/sad. What is your problem?” Amnon replied, “I (am in love/want to sleep) [EUP] with Tamar, my half-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 ।”
Jonadab said to him, “Lie down on your bed, and pretend that you are sick. When your father comes to see you, say to him, ‘Allow my half-sister Tamar to come and give me some food to eat. She can prepare the food while I am watching her. Then she can serve it to me herself.’”
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 pretended that he was sick. When the king came to see him, Amnon said to him, “[I am sick; ] please allow my half-sister Tamar to come and make a couple scones/dumplings for me while I am watching, and then she can serve them to me.”
7 अनि दाऊदले आफ्नो दरबारमा तमारलाई खबर पठाए, “अहिले तिम्रो दाजु अमनोनको घरमा जाऊ र तिनको निम्ति खाना तयार पारिदेऊ ।”
So David sent a message to Tamar in the palace, saying “Amnon [is sick and he wants you to] go to his house and prepare some food for him.”
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 Amnon’s house, where he was lying in bed. She took some dough and kneaded it, and formed it into some scones/dumplings while he was watching her. Then she baked them.
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 ।
She took them out of the pan and put them [on a plate] in front of him, but he refused to eat them. Then he said to everyone else in the room, “All the rest of you, leave me now!” So all the others left his [room].
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 ।
Then Amnon said to Tamar, “Bring the food into my room and serve it to me.” So Tamar took into his room the scones/dumplings that she had made.
11 जब उनले तिनकहाँ खाना ल्याएकी थिइन्, तब तिनले उनको हात समाते र उनलाई भने, “मेरी बहिनी, आऊ, मसँग सुत ।”
But when she brought them close for him to eat them, he grabbed her and said to her, “Come to bed with me!”
12 उनले तिनलाई जवाफ दिइन्, “होइन, मेरो दाजु, मलाई कर नलगाउनुहोस्, किनकि इस्राएलमा यस्तो कुनै कुरा गर्नुहुँदैन । यस्तो घोर दुष्ट कुरा नगर्नुहोस् ।
She replied, “No, do not force me to do such a disgraceful thing! We never do things like that in Israel! That would be awful/terrible!
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 ।”
As for me, if I did that, I would not be able to [RHQ] endure being disgraced by having done that. And as for you, everyone in Israel would condemn you for having done such a disgraceful deed. So I plead with you, talk to the king. I am sure that he will allow me to marry you.”
14 तापनि अमनोनले उनको कुरा सुनेनन् । तिनी तामारभन्दा बलिया भएका हुनाले, तिनले उनलाई समाते र तिनी उनीसित सुते ।
But he would not listen to her. He was stronger than she was, so he forced her to have sex with him.
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 very much. He hated her much more than he had desired her. He said to her, “Get up and get out of here!”
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 ।
But she said to him, “No! It would be very wrong for you to send me away. It would be worse than what you just did to me!” But he would not listen to her.
17 बरु, तिनले आफ्नो व्यक्तिगत सेवकलाई बोलाए र भने, “यो स्त्रीलाई मबाट हटाओ र त्यसलाई निकालेपछि ढोका बन्द गरिदेओ ।”
He summoned his personal servant and said to him, “Take this woman outside, away from me, and lock the door [so that she cannot come in again]!”
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 ।
So the servant put her outside and locked the door. Tamar was wearing a long robe with long sleeves, which was the clothing that was usually worn by the unmarried daughters of the king at that time.
19 तामारले आफ्नो टाउकोमा खरानी हालिन् र आफ्नो लुगा च्यातिन् । उनले आफ्नो हात शिरमाथि राखिन् र उनी ठुलो सोरले रुँदै हिंडेर गइन् ।
But Tamar tore the long robe that she was wearing, and put ashes on her head [to show that she was very sad]. Then she put her hands on her head [to show that she was grieving], and she went away, crying.
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 ।
Her brother Absalom [saw her and] said to her, “Has your half-brother Amnon [DOU] forced you to have sex with him [EUP]? Please, my sister, do not tell anyone, and do not become depressed/sad.” So Tamar went to live in Absalom’s house, and she was very sad and lonely.
21 तर जब राजा दाऊदले यी सबै कुरा सुने, तब तिनी रिसले चुर भए ।
When King David heard about all that, he became very angry.
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 hated Amnon, because he had raped his sister, so he would not speak to Amnon about anything.
23 पुरा दुई वर्षपछि यस्तो भयो, अब्शालोमले एफ्राइम नजिकै रहेको बालहासोरमा भेडको ऊन कत्रिए र अब्शालोमले राजाका सबै छोरालाई निमन्त्रणा दिए ।
Two years later, Absalom’s servants were shearing sheep at Baal-Hazor, which is near [a town named] Ephraim. [When they finished shearing the sheep, they celebrated], and Absalom invited all the king’s sons [to come and celebrate].
24 अब्शालोम राजाकहाँ गए र भने, “हे्र्नुहोस्, तपाईंको दासले भेडाको ऊन कत्रन लगेको छ । कृपया, राजा र उहाँका सेवकहरू हजुरका दासकहाँ सवारी होस् ।”
Absalom went to the king and said to him, “Sir, my servants have been shearing my sheep. Please come with your officials [to celebrate] with us!”
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 ।
But the king replied, “No, my son, it would not be good for all of us to go, because it would cause you to do a lot of work and spend a lot of money for food.” Absalom continued urging him, but the king would not go. Instead, he said that he hoped/desired that God would bless them [while they celebrated].
26 तब अब्शालोमले भने, “होइन भने, मेरो दाजु अमनोनलाई मसँग जान दिनुहोस् ।” राजाले उनलाई भने, “अमनोन तिमीसँग किन जाने नि?”
Then Absalom said, “If you will not go, please allow my half-brother Amnon to go with us.” But the king replied, “Why [do you want] him to go with you?”
27 अब्शालोमले दाऊदलाई कर गरे, र तिनले अमनोन र सबै राजकुमारलाई उनीसित जान दिए ।
But Absalom continued to insist, so finally the king permitted Amnon and all David’s other sons to go with Absalom.
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?”
[So they all went. And at the celebration], Absalom commanded his servants, “Notice when Amnon has become a bit drunk from the wine. Then when I signal to you, kill him. Do not be afraid; you will be doing this [only] because I told you [RHQ] to do it. So be courageous and do it!”
29 त्यसैले अबशालोमका सेवकहरूले उनले आज्ञा गरेबमोजिम नै अमनोनलाई गरे । तब सबै राजकुमार उठे र सबैले आ-आफ्नो कच्चर चढे र भागे ।
So Absalom’s servants did what Absalom told them to do. [They killed Amnon]. All the rest of David’s sons [saw what happened and] fled, riding on their mules.
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 ।”
While they were on their way home, someone [went quickly and] reported to David, “Absalom has killed all of your other sons; none of them is still alive!”
31 त्यसपछि राजा उठे र आफ्नो लुगा च्याते र भुईंमा पसारो परे । तिनका सबै सेवकले पनि आआफ्ना लुगा च्याते र छेउमा खडा भए ।
The king stood up, tore his clothes [because he was extremely sad], and then he threw himself down on the ground. All the servants who were there also tore their clothes.
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 ।
But Jonadab, the son of David’s brother Shimeah, said, “Your Majesty, [I am sure that] they have not killed all your sons. [I am sure that] only Amnon is dead, because Absalom has determined to do this ever since the day that Amnon raped [EUP] his half-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 ।”
So, your majesty, do not believe the report that all your sons are dead. [I am sure that] only Amnon is dead.”
34 अब्शालोम भागे । रक्षक भएका एक जना सेवकले हेरे र आफ्नो पश्चिमतिरको पहाडको बाटोमा धेरै जना मानिस आइरहेको देखे ।
In the meantime, Absalom ran away. Just then, the soldier/sentry [who was standing on the city wall] saw a large crowd of people coming down the hill along the road from Horonaim. [He ran and told the king what he had seen].
35 तब योनादाबले राजालाई भने, “हे्र्नुहोस्, राजकुमारहरू आउँदै छन् । यो तपाईंको दासले भनेजस्तै हो ।”
Jonadab said to the king, “Aha! What I told you is true. Your other sons [are alive and] have come!”
36 अनि यस्तो भयो, जब तिनले बोलिसके तब राजकुमारहरू आइपुगे र ठुलो सोर गरे र रोए । राजा र तिनका सेवकहरू पनि धुरुधुरु रोए ।
And as soon as he said that, David’s sons came in. They all started crying, and David and all his officials also cried very much.
37 तर अब्शालोम भागे र गशूरका राजा अम्मीहूदका छोरा तल्मैकहाँ गए । दाऊदले आफ्नो छोराको निम्ति हरेक दिन विलाप गरे ।
But Absalom had fled. He went to stay with the king of [the] Geshur [region], who was Talmai the son of Ammihud. Absalom stayed there for three years. David mourned for his son Amnon for a long time,
38 यसैले अब्शालोम भागे र गशूरमा गए, जहाँ तिनी तीन वर्षसम्म बसे ।
39 दाऊद राजाको मनले अब्शालोमलाई भेट्न जाने तीव्र इच्छा गर्यो, किनकि तिनी अमनोन र उनको मृत्युको बारेमा सान्त्वना पाएका थिए ।
but after that, he desired very much to see Absalom, because he was no longer grieving about Amnon being dead.
