< २ शमूएल 23 >

1 अब दाऊदको अन्तिम वचनहरू यी नै हुन्— यिशैका छोरा दाऊद, उच्‍च रूपमा आदर गरिएको मानिस, याकूबका परमेश्‍वरले अभिषेक गर्नुभएको व्‍यक्‍ति, इस्राएलको सुमधुर भजनकार ।
Now these be the last words of David. David the son of Jesse said, and the man who was raised up on high, the anointed of the God of Jacob, and the sweet psalmist of Israel, said,
2 “परमप्रभुको आत्मा मद्वारा बोल्नुभयो र उहाँको वचन मेरो जिब्रोमा थियो ।
The Spirit of the LORD spoke by me, and his word was in my tongue.
3 इस्राएलका परमेश्‍वर बोल्नुभयो, इस्राएलका चट्टानले मलाई भन्‍नुभयो, 'जसले मानिसहरूमाथि धार्मिक रूपले शासन गर्छ, जसले परमेश्‍वरको भयमा शासन गर्छ ।
The God of Israel said, the Rock of Israel spoke to me, He that rules over men must be just, ruling in the fear of God.
4 त्यो सूर्य उदाउँदाको बिहानको प्रकाश, बादलबिनाको एक बिहानजस्‍तो हुनेछ, जब पानी परेपछिको घामको उज्यालो चमकद्वारा पृथ्वीबाट नरम घाँस उम्रन्छ ।
And he shall be as the light of the morning, when the sun rises, even a morning without clouds; as the tender grass springing out of the earth by clear shining after rain.
5 वास्तवमा, के मेरो परिवार परमेश्‍वरको सामु यस्‍तै हुँदैन र? के उहाँले मसँग हरेक उपायले स्‍थापित र पक्‍का अनन्त करार गर्नुभएको छैन र? के उहाँले मेरो उद्धारको वृद्धि र मेरा सबै इच्छा पुरा गर्नुहुन्‍न र?
Although my house be not so with God; yet he has made with me an everlasting covenant, ordered in all things, and sure: for this is all my salvation, and all my desire, although he make it not to grow.
6 तर व्यार्थकाहरू फालिने काँडाजस्तै हुनेछन्, किनभने तिनीहरूलाई कसैको हातले जम्‍मा पार्न सकिंदैन ।
But the sons of Belial shall be all of them as thorns thrust away, because they cannot be taken with hands:
7 तिनीहरूलाई छुने मानिसले फलामको समग्री वा भालाको बिंड प्रयोग गर्नुपर्छ । जहाँ तिनीहरू बस्‍छन् त्यहीं तिनीहरूलाई जलाउनुपर्छ' ।”
But the man that shall touch them must be fenced with iron and the staff of a spear; and they shall be utterly burned with fire in the same place.
8 दाऊदका वीर मानिहरूका नाउँ यी नै हुन्ः तहकमोनी योशब-बेश्बेत वीर मानिसहरूका अगुवा थिए । तिनलले एकै पटकमा आठ सय मानिसलाई मारे ।
These be the names of the mighty men whom David had: The Tachmonite that sat in the seat, chief among the captains; the same was Adino the Eznite: he lift up his spear against eight hundred, whom he slew at one time.
9 तिनीपछि अहोही दोदैका छोरा एलाजार थिए । तिनी तीन जना वीर मनिसमध्ये एक जना थिए । युद्ध गर्न भेला भएका पलिश्तीहरूलाई इस्राएलीहरूले अपमान गर्दा र इस्राएलीहरू पछि हट्दा दाऊदको साथमा हुने तिनी नै थिए ।
And after him was Eleazar the son of Dodo the Ahohite, one of the three mighty men with David, when they defied the Philistines that were there gathered together to battle, and the men of Israel were gone away:
10 एलाजार खडा भए र आफ्‍नो हात नथाकेसम्‍म, र तिनको हातले तरवारको बिंड नै नसमात्‍ने गरी नथाकेसम्म पलिश्तीहरूसँग युद्ध लडे । त्यस दिन परमप्रभुले ठुलो विजाय दिनुभयो । फौजहरू लाशहरूबाट लुट्नलाई मात्र एलाजारको पछि फर्केर गए ।
He arose, and smote the Philistines until his hand was weary, and his hand stuck to the sword: and the LORD worked a great victory that day; and the people returned after him only to spoil.
11 तिनीपछि हरारी आगीका छोरा शम्मा थिए । पलिश्‍तीहरू दाल भएको खेतमा एकसाथ भेला भए र फौज तिनीहरूबाट भागे ।
And after him was Shammah the son of Agee the Hararite. And the Philistines were gathered together into a troop, where was a piece of ground full of lentils: and the people fled from the Philistines.
12 तर शम्‍मा खेतको बिचमा भए भए र त्‍यसको प्रतिरक्षा गरे । तिनले पलिश्तीहरूलाई मारे र परमप्रभुले ठुलो विजय दिनुभयो ।
But he stood in the middle of the ground, and defended it, and slew the Philistines: and the LORD worked a great victory.
13 तीस जनामध्येका तीन जना सिपाही कटनीको समयमा तल दाऊदकहाँ अदुल्‍लामको गुफामा गए । पलिश्तीहरूका फौजले रपाईंको बेसीमा छाउनी हालेका थिए ।
And three of the thirty chief went down, and came to David in the harvest time to the cave of Adullam: and the troop of the Philistines pitched in the valley of Rephaim.
14 त्यस बेला दाऊद आफ्‍नो किल्‍ला अर्थात् गुफामा थिए, जबकि पलिश्तीहरू बेथलेहेममा स्थापित भएका थिए ।
And David was then in an hold, and the garrison of the Philistines was then in Bethlehem.
15 दाऊदले पानी तृष्णा गरे र भने, “बेथलेहेमको ढोकाको छेउमा भएको इनारको पानी कसैले ल्याइदिएको भए मात्रै पनि हुन्थ्यो नि!”
And David longed, and said, Oh that one would give me drink of the water of the well of Bethlehem, which is by the gate!
16 त्यसैले यी तीन जना वीर मानिसहरू पलिश्तीहरूको फौजलाई तोडेर बिचबाट गए र बेथलेहेमको ढोकाको छेउमा भएको इनारको पानी ल्याए । तिनीहरूले पानी लिए र दाऊदकहाँ ल्याए, तर तिनले त्यो पिउन इन्कार गरे । बरु, तिनले त्यो परमप्रभुमा चढाए ।
And the three mighty men broke through the host of the Philistines, and drew water out of the well of Bethlehem, that was by the gate, and took it, and brought it to David: nevertheless he would not drink thereof, but poured it out to the LORD.
17 अनि तिनले भने, “हे परमप्रभु, मैले यसो गर्ने कुरा मबाट दूर रहोस् । के मैले ती मानिसहरूका रगत पिउनु जसले आफ्‍ना जीवनलाई खतरामा हालेका छन्?” त्यसैले तिनले त्‍यो पिउन इन्कार गरे । ती तीन जना वीर मानिसले यी कुराहरू गरेका थिए ।
And he said, Be it far from me, O LORD, that I should do this: is not this the blood of the men that went in jeopardy of their lives? therefore he would not drink it. These things did these three mighty men.
18 योआबका भाइ र सरूयाहका छोरा अबीशै यी तिन जनाका कप्‍तान थिए । तिनले एक पटक तीन सय जना मानिससँग लडे र तिनीहरूलाई मारे । तिनलाई प्रायः तीन जना सिपाहरूसँगै उल्लेख गरिन्छ ।
And Abishai, the brother of Joab, the son of Zeruiah, was chief among three. And he lifted up his spear against three hundred, and slew them, and had the name among three.
19 के तिनी ती तीन जनाभन्दा धेरै प्रसिद्ध थिएनन् र? तिनलाई उनीहरूका कप्‍तान बनाइएको थियो । तापनि तिनको ख्‍याति तीन जना धेरै ख्‍यातिप्राप्‍त सिपाहीका बराबर थिएन ।
Was he not most honorable of three? therefore he was their captain: however, he attained not to the first three.
20 यहोयादाका छोरा कब्सेका छोरा बनायाह थिए । तिनी बलिया मानिस थिए जसले वीरतापूर्ण काम गरे । तिनले मोआबको अरिएलका दुई जना छोरालाई मारे । तिनले हिउँ परिरहेको बेला एउटा खाल्डोमा पसेर एउटा सिंहलाई मारे ।
And Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, the son of a valiant man, of Kabzeel, who had done many acts, he slew two lion like men of Moab: he went down also and slew a lion in the middle of a pit in time of snow:
21 त्‍यसपछि तिनले एक जना ठुलो मिश्रीलाई मारे । मिश्रीको हातमा भाला थियो, तर बनायाहले त्यससँग लौरोले मात्र युद्ध लडे । तिनले त्‍यो मिश्रीको हातबाट भाला खोसे र त्यसको आफ्नै भालाले त्यसलाई मारे ।
And he slew an Egyptian, a goodly man: and the Egyptian had a spear in his hand; but he went down to him with a staff, and plucked the spear out of the Egyptian’s hand, and slew him with his own spear.
22 यहोयादाका छोरा बनायाहका वीरतापूर्ण कामहरू यी नै थिए, र तिनलाई तीन जना वीर मानिससँगै नाउँ दिइयो ।
These things did Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and had the name among three mighty men.
23 तिनलाई तीस जना सिपालाई भन्दा उच्‍च आदर दिइन्थ्यो, तर तिनलाई ती तीन जनालाई जत्ति उच्‍च रूपमा बिलकुलै मानिंदैनथ्यो । तापनि दाऊदले यिनलाई आफ्नो अङ्गरक्षकको जिम्‍मा दिए ।
He was more honorable than the thirty, but he attained not to the first three. And David set him over his guard.
