२ शमूएल 16
1 दाऊद डाँडाको चुचुरोबाट अलिकति पर पुग्दा, मपीबोशेतको नोकर सीबा केही गधाहरू जीन-काठी कसेर दाऊदलाई भेट्न आए । तिनमा दुई सयवटा रोटी, एक सय झुप्पा किसमिस, नेभारा एक सय झुप्पा र एक मशक दाखमद्य थिए ।
When David was a little past the top, behold, Ziba the servant of Mephibosheth met him with a couple of donkeys saddled, and on them two hundred loaves of bread, and one hundred clusters of raisins, and one hundred summer fruits, and a container of wine.
2 राजाले सीबालाई भने, “तिमीले यी कुरा किन लिएर आयौ?” सीबाले जवाफ दिए, “गधाहरू राजाका घरानालाई सवार हुन, रोटी र नेभाराका डल्लाहरू तपाईंका मानिसहरूले खान र दाखमद्यचाहि उजाडस्थानमा मूर्छित हुनेहरूका लागि पिउनलाई हुन् ।”
The king said to Ziba, “What do you mean by these?” Ziba said, “The donkeys are for the king’s household to ride on; and the bread and summer fruit for the young men to eat; and the wine, that those who are faint in the wilderness may drink.”
3 राजले भने, “त्यसो भए, तिम्रो मालिको नाति कहाँ छ?” सीबाले राजालाई जवाफ दिए, “हेर्नुहोस्, उनी यरूशलेममा नै बसेका छन्, किनकि, उनले भने, 'इस्राएलको घरानाले आज मेरो बुबाको राज्य मलाई पुनर्स्थापना गर्ने छन्' ।”
The king said, “Where is your master’s son?” Ziba said to the king, “Behold, he is staying in Jerusalem; for he said, ‘Today the house of Israel will restore me the kingdom of my father.’”
4 तब राजाले सीबालाई भने, “हेर, मपीबोशेतको अधीनमा भएका सबै कुरा अब तिम्रो भयो ।” सीबाले जवाफ दिए, “हे मेरो मालिक महाराजा म नम्रतासाथ हजुरको सामु निहुरिन्छु । मैले हजुरको दृष्टिमा निगाह पाउन सकौं ।”
Then the king said to Ziba, “Behold, all that belongs to Mephibosheth is yours.” Ziba said, “I bow down. Let me find favour in your sight, my lord, O king.”
5 जब दाऊद राजा बहूरीमको नजिक पुगे, त्यहाँबाट एक जना मानिस शाऊलको कुलको गेराका छोरा शिमी आयो । ऊ हिंड्दै गर्दा उसले सराप्दै गयो ।
When King David came to Bahurim, behold, a man of the family of Saul’s house came out, whose name was Shimei, the son of Gera. He came out and cursed as he came.
6 राजाको दाया र बायातिर फौजहरू र अङ्गरक्षकहरू भए तापनि उसले दाऊदलाई र राजाका अधिकारीहरूलाई ढङ्गाले हान्यो ।
He cast stones at David and at all the servants of King David, and all the people and all the mighty men were on his right hand and on his left.
7 शिमीले यसरी सरापे, “गइहाल, यहाँबाट निस्की जा, तँ दुष्ट, तँ रक्तपात गर्ने मानिस!
Shimei said when he cursed, “Be gone, be gone, you man of blood, and wicked fellow!
8 तैंले शाऊलको घरानाभित्र बगाएको रगतका लागि तिमीहरू सबैलाई परमप्रभुले जवाफ दिनुभएको छ, जसको ठाउँमा तैंले राज्य गरेको छस् । परमप्रभुले तेरो छोरा अब्शालोमलाई राज्य दिनुभएको छ । तेरो सर्वनाश भएको छ किनभने तँ रक्तपातको मानिस होस् ।”
The LORD has returned on you all the blood of Saul’s house, in whose place you have reigned! The LORD has delivered the kingdom into the hand of Absalom your son! Behold, you are caught by your own mischief, because you are a man of blood!”
9 त्यसपछि सरूयाहका छोरा अबीशैले राजालाई भने, “यो मरेको कुकुरले मेरो मलिक महाराजालाई किन सराप्ने? कृपया, पारि गएर त्यसको टाउको काट्ने अनुमति मलाई दिनुहोस् ।”
Then Abishai the son of Zeruiah said to the king, “Why should this dead dog curse my lord the king? Please let me go over and take off his head.”
10 तर राजाले भने, “ए सरूयाहका छोराहरू तिमीहरूको मसँग के सरोकार? सायद परमप्रभुले नै, 'दाऊदलाई सराप' भनेर त्यसलाई भन्नुभएको हुनाले त्यसले मलाई सराप्दै छ । अनि त्यसलाई 'तिमीले राजालाई किन सराप्दै छौ?' भनेर कसले भन्न सक्छ' ।”
The king said, “What have I to do with you, you sons of Zeruiah? Because he curses, and because the LORD has said to him, ‘Curse David,’ who then shall say, ‘Why have you done so?’”
11 त्यसैले दाऊदले अबीशै र आफ्ना सबै सेवकलाई भने, “हेर, मेरो छोर, जो मेरो आफ्नै शरीरबाट जन्मेको हो, त्यसले नै मलाई मार्न खोज्छ । यो बेन्यामिनीले झन् मेरो विनाश भएको कति धेरै इच्छा गर्ला? त्यसलाई छोडिदेऊ र त्यसले सरापोस्, किनकि परमप्रभुले नै त्यसो गर्ने आज्ञा त्यसलाई दिनुभएको छ ।
David said to Abishai and to all his servants, “Behold, my son, who came out of my bowels, seeks my life. How much more this Benjamite, now? Leave him alone, and let him curse; for the LORD has invited him.
12 सायद ममाथि आइपरेको यो कष्ट परमप्रभुले हेर्नुहुने छ र आज त्यसले मलाई सरापेकोमा मलाई असल इनाम दिनुहुने छ ।”
It may be that the LORD will look on the wrong done to me, and that the LORD will repay me good for the cursing of me today.”
13 त्यसैले दाऊद र तिनका मानिसहरू बाटोमा हिंडे, जबकि शिमीले डाँडाको अर्कोपट्टि हिंड्दै, सराप्दै, धुलो छर्दै र ढुङ्गा हान्दै गए ।
So David and his men went by the way; and Shimei went along on the hillside opposite him and cursed as he went, threw stones at him, and threw dust.
14 त्यसपछि राजा र तिनीसँग भएका सबै मानिस थकित भए र तिनीहरू राती रोकिंदा तिनले आराम गरे ।
The king and all the people who were with him arrived weary; and he refreshed himself there.
15 अब्शालोमको र तिनीसँग भएका इस्राएलका सबै मानिसका बारेमामा, तिनीहरू यरूशलेममा आए र अहीतोपेल तिनीसँगै थिए ।
Absalom and all the people, the men of Israel, came to Jerusalem, and Ahithophel with him.
16 जब दाऊदका मित्र अरकी हूशै अब्शालोमकहाँ आए, तब हूशैले अब्शालोमलाई भने, “राजा अमर रहुन्! राजा अमर रहुन्!”
When Hushai the Archite, David’s friend, had come to Absalom, Hushai said to Absalom, “Long live the king! Long live the king!”
17 अब्शालोमले हूशैलाई भने, “तिम्रो मित्रप्रतिको तिम्रो बफदारीता यही हो? तिमी किन तिनीसित गएनौ?”
Absalom said to Hushai, “Is this your kindness to your friend? Why didn’t you go with your friend?”
18 हूशैले अब्शालोमलाई भने, “होइन, बरु, परमप्रभु र यी मानिसहरू र इस्राएलका सारा मानिसले जसलाई चुनेका छन्, म त्यही मानिसको हुने छु र उसैसित म बस्ने छु ।
Hushai said to Absalom, “No; but whomever the LORD and this people and all the men of Israel have chosen, I will be his, and I will stay with him.
19 साथै, मैले कुन मानिसको सेवा गर्नु? के मैले तिनको छोराको उपस्थितिमा सेवा नगर्नु? मैले जसरी तपाईंको बुबाको सामु सेवा गरेको छु त्यसरी नै म तपाईंको सामु सेवा गर्ने छु ।”
Again, whom should I serve? Shouldn’t I serve in the presence of his son? As I have served in your father’s presence, so I will be in your presence.”
20 तब अब्शालोमले अहीतोपेललाई भने, “हामीले के गर्नुपर्छ भन्ने बारेमा हामीलाई तपाईंको सल्लाह दिनुहोस् ।”
Then Absalom said to Ahithophel, “Give your counsel what we shall do.”
21 अहीतोपेलले अब्शालोमलाई जवाफ दिए, “जानुहोस्, तपाईंको बुबाले दरबारको सुरक्षा गर्न छोड्नुभएका तपाईंको बुबाका उपपत्नीहरूसित सुत्नुहोस् र तपाईं आफ्नो बुबाप्रति दुर्गन्ध हुनुभएको छ भनी सारा इस्राएललाई थाहा हुने छ । तब तपाईंसँग भएका सबैको हात बलियो हुने छ ।”
Ahithophel said to Absalom, “Go in to your father’s concubines that he has left to keep the house. Then all Israel will hear that you are abhorred by your father. Then the hands of all who are with you will be strong.”
22 त्यसैले तिनीहरूले दरबारको छतमा अब्शालोमको निम्ति पाल टाँगे र सारा इस्राएलले देख्ने गरी अब्शालोम आफ्नो बुबाका उपपत्नीहरूसित सुते ।
So they spread a tent for Absalom on the top of the house, and Absalom went in to his father’s concubines in the sight of all Israel.
23 अब ती दिनहरूमा अहीतोपेलले दिएको सल्लाह परमेश्वर स्वयम्को मुखबाट मानिसले सुनेको जस्तै हुन्थ्यो । दाऊद र अब्शालोम दुवैले अहीतोपेलको सल्लाहलाई त्यसरी नै लिन्थे ।
The counsel of Ahithophel, which he gave in those days, was as if a man enquired at the inner sanctuary of God. All the counsel of Ahithophel was like this both with David and with Absalom.
