२ शमूएल 3
1 अब शाऊलका घराना र दाऊदका घरानाका बिच लामो समयसम्म युद्ध भइरह्यो । दाऊद झन्-झन् बलियो हुँदै गए, तर शाऊलको घराना झन्-झन् कमजोर हुँदै गयो ।
Now there was long war between the house of Saul and the house of David: but David waxed stronger and stronger, and the house of Saul waxed weaker and weaker.
2 हेब्रोनमा दाऊदका छोराहरू जन्मे । तिनका जेठा छोरा यिजरेली अहीनोमबाट जन्मेका अमनोन थिए ।
And unto David were sons born in Hebron: and his firstborn was Amnon, of Ahinoam the Jezreelitess;
3 तिनका महिला छोरा नाबबालकी विधवा कर्मेली अबीगेलबाट जन्मेका किलाब थिए । साहिंला छोरा अब्शालोम, जो गशूरका राजा तल्मैकी छोरी माकाका छोरा थिए ।
And his second, Chileab, of Abigail the wife of Nabal the Carmelite; and the third, Absalom the son of Maacah the daughter of Talmai king of Geshur;
4 दाऊदका कहिंलो छोरा अदोनियाहचाहिं हग्गीतका छोरा थिए । तिनका ठाहिंला छोरा शपत्याहचाहिं अबीतलका छोरा थिए,
And the fourth, Adonijah the son of Haggith; and the fifth, Shephatiah the son of Abital;
5 कान्छो छोरा यित्राम दाऊदकी पत्नी एग्लाका छोरा थिए । होब्रोनमा जन्मेका दाऊदका छोराहरू यिनै थिए ।
And the sixth, Ithream, by Eglah David's wife. These were born to David in Hebron.
6 शाऊलका घराना र दाऊदका घराना बिचको युद्धको समयमा शाऊलको घरानामा अबनेरले आफूलाई निकै शक्तिशाली बनाए ।
And it came to pass, while there was war between the house of Saul and the house of David, that Abner made himself strong for the house of Saul.
7 अय्याकी छोरी रिश्पा शाऊलकी उपपत्नी थिइन् । ईश्बोशेतले अबनेरलाई भने, “तिमी मेरो बुबाको उपपत्नीसँग किन सुतेको?”
And Saul had a concubine, whose name was Rizpah, the daughter of Aiah: and Ishbosheth said to Abner, Wherefore have you gone in unto my father's concubine?
8 त्यसपछि ईश्बोशेतको कुराले अबनेर रिसले आगो भए र भने, “के म यहूदाको कुकुर हुँ? आज म तपाईंलाई दाऊदको हातमा नसुम्पेर तपाईंको बुबा शाऊको घराना, तिनका भाइहरू र तिनका मित्रहरूप्रति बफदारीता देखाइरहेको छु । तर अहिले तपाईंले मलाई यो स्त्रीको बारेको अपराधको दोष लगानुहुन्छ?
Then was Abner very angry for the words of Ishbosheth, and said, Am I a dog's head, which against Judah do show kindness this day unto the house of Saul your father, to his brethren, and to his friends, and have not delivered you into the hand of David, that you charge me to day with a fault concerning this woman?
9 पमरप्रभुले गर्छु भनी दऊदसित शपथ खानुभएझैं मैले तिनलाई गरिनँ भने, परमेश्वरले म अबनेरलाई यो वा योभन्दा बढी गर्नुभएको होस्,
So do God to Abner, and more also, except, as the LORD has sworn to David, even so I do to him;
10 जसमा शाऊलको घरानाको राज्य हस्तान्तरण गर्न, र इस्राएलमाथि र यहूदामाथि दानदेखि बेर्शेबासम्मै दाऊदको सिंहासन स्थापित गर्न ।”
To translate the kingdom from the house of Saul, and to set up the throne of David over Israel and over Judah, from Dan even to Beersheba.
11 ईश्बोशेतले अबनेरलाई अर्को शब्द केही पनि भन्न सकेन, किनभने तिनीसँग उनी डराए ।
And he could not answer Abner a word again, because he feared him.
12 त्यसपछि अबनेरले यसो भन्दै दाऊदकहाँ दूतहरू पठाए, “यो देश कसको हो? मसँग एउटा करार गर्नुहोस् र सारा इस्राएललाई तपाईंकहाँ ल्याउन मेरो हात तपाईंसँग भएको तपाईंले देख्नुहुने छ ।”
And Abner sent messengers to David on his behalf, saying, Whose is the land? saying also, Make your league with me, and, behold, my hand shall be with you, to bring about all Israel unto you.
13 दाऊदले जवाफ दिए, “राम्रो, तिमीसँग एउटा करार गर्नेछु । तर तिमी मलाई भेट्न आउँदा म तिमीबाट एउटा कुरा चाहन्छु, पहिले शाऊलकी छोरी मीकल नल्याएसम्म तिमीले मेरो मुख हेर्न पाउने छैनौ ।”
And he said, Well; I will make a league with you: but one thing I require of you, that is, You shall not see my face, except you first bring Michal Saul's daughter, when you come to see my face.
14 त्यसपछि दाऊदले यसो भन्दै शाऊलका छोरा ईश्बोशेतकहाँ दूतहरू पठाए, “मलाई मेरी पत्नी मीकल देऊ, जसलाई मैले सय जना पलिश्तीको खलडीको मूल्य तिरें ।”
And David sent messengers to Ishbosheth Saul's son, saying, Deliver me my wife Michal, which I espoused to me for an hundred foreskins of the Philistines.
15 त्यसैले ईश्बोशेतले मीकललाई लिन पठाए र तिनलाई तिनको पति लैशका छोरा पल्तिएलकहाँबाट ल्याए ।
And Ishbosheth sent, and took her from her husband, even from Phaltiel the son of Laish.
16 तिनको पति रुँदै-रुँदै तिनसँगै गए र बहूरीमसम्म तिनलाई पछ्याए । तब अबनेरले तिनलाई भने, “अब घर फर्क ।” त्यसैले तिनी फर्के ।
And her husband went with her along weeping behind her to Bahurim. Then said Abner unto him, Go, return. And he returned.
17 अबनेरले इस्राएलका धर्म-गरुहरूसित यसो भनेर कुरा गरे, “विगतमा तपाईंहरूले दाऊदलाई आफ्ना राजा बनाउने प्रयास गर्दै हुनुहुन्थ्यो ।
And Abner had communication with the elders of Israel, saying, All of you sought for David in times past to be king over you:
18 अब यो काम गर्नुहोस् । किनकि परमप्रभुले दाऊदसित यसो भनेर बोल्नुभएको छ, 'म आफ्ना मानिसहरूलाई पलिश्तीहरूका हात र तिनीहरूका सबै शत्रुका हातबाट मेरो दास दाऊदको हातद्वारा नै बचाउने छु' ।”
Now then do it: for the LORD has spoken of David, saying, By the hand of my servant David I will save my people Israel out of the hand of the Philistines, and out of the hand of all their enemies.
19 अबनेर आफैले पनि बेन्यामीनका मानिसहरूसँग व्यक्तिगत रूपले कुरा गरे । त्यसपछि इस्राएल र बेन्यामीनका सम्पूर्ण घरानाले गर्न इच्छा गरेका सबै कुरा बताउन अबनेर दाऊदसँग कुरा गर्न हेब्रोनमा गए ।
And Abner also spoke in the ears of Benjamin: and Abner went also to speak in the ears of David in Hebron all that seemed good to Israel, and that seemed good to the whole house of Benjamin.
20 जब अबनेर र तिनका बिस जना मानिसहरू दाऊदलाई भेट्न हेब्रोनमा आइपुगे, तब दाऊदले तिनीहरूका निम्ति भोज तयार गरे ।
So Abner came to David to Hebron, and twenty men with him. And David made Abner and the men that were with him a feast.
21 अबनेरले दाऊदलाई सविस्तार बताए, “हे मेरो मालिक राजा, म उठेर सबै इस्राएललाई तपाईंकहाँ ल्याउने छु, ताकि तिनीहरूले तपाईंसँग करार बाँधुन् र सबैमाथि तपाईंले इच्छा गर्नुभएबमोजिम तपाईंले शासन गर्न सक्नुभएको होस् ।” यसैले दाऊदले अबनेरलाई पठाइदिए र अबनेर शान्तिसित विदा भए ।
And Abner said unto David, I will arise and go, and will gather all Israel unto my lord the king, that they may make a league with you, and that you may reign over all that your heart desires. And David sent Abner away; and he went in peace.
22 त्यसपछि दाऊदका सिपाहीहरू र योआब लुटपिट गरेर आए र आफ्नो साथमा धेरै लुटका मालहरू ल्याए । तर अबनेरचाहिं हेब्रोनमा दाऊदसँग थिएनन् । दाऊदले तिनलाई पठाइसकेका थिए र अबनेर शान्तिसँग विदा भएका थिए ।
And, behold, the servants of David and Joab came from pursuing a troop, and brought in a great spoil with them: but Abner was not with David in Hebron; for he had sent him away, and he was gone in peace.
23 जब योआब र तिनीसँग भएका सबै फौज आइपुगे, तब तिनीहरूले योआबलाई भने, “नेरका छोरा अबनेर राजाकहाँ आए र राजाले तिनलाई शान्तिसँग पठाउनुभएको छ र अबनेर शान्तिसँग विदा भए ।”
When Joab and all the host that was with him were come, they told Joab, saying, Abner the son of Ner came to the king, and he has sent him away, and he is gone in peace.
24 तब योआब राजाकहाँ आए र भने, “तपाईंले य के गर्नुभएको छ? हेर्नुहोस्, अबनेर तपाईंकहाँ आए! तपाईंले तिनलाई किन पठाउनुभएको छ र तिनी गएका छन्?
Then Joab came to the king, and said, What have you done? behold, Abner came unto you; why is it that you have sent him away, and he is quite gone?
25 नेरका छोरा अबनेर तपाईंलाई छल्न गर्न र तपाईंका योजनाहरू र तपाईंले गरिरहेका हरेक कुरा पत्ता लगाउन आएका होइनन् र?”
You know Abner the son of Ner, that he came to deceive you, and to know your going out and your coming in, and to know all that you do.
26 जब योआब दाऊदकहाँबाट गए, तब तिनले अबनेरको पछि-पछि दूतहरू पठाए र तिनीहरूले तिनलाई सीराको इनारबाट फर्काए ल्याए, तर दाऊदलाई यो कुरा थाहा थिएन ।
And when Joab was come out from David, he sent messengers after Abner, which brought him again from the well of Sirah: but David knew it not.
27 जब अबनेर हेब्रोनमा फर्के, तिनीसित गोप्य रूपले कुरा गर्नलाई योआबले तिनलाई बिच ढोकाको एकातिर लिएर गए । त्यहाँ योआबले तिनलाई पेटमा घोचे र तिनलाई मारे । यसरी योआबले आफ्नो भाइ असाहेलको रगतको बदला लिए ।
And when Abner was returned to Hebron, Joab took him aside in the gate to speak with him quietly, and stroke him there under the fifth rib, that he died, for the blood of Asahel his brother.
28 जब दाऊदले यस कुराको बारेमा सुने, तब तिनले भने, “नेरका छोरा अबनेरको रगतको सम्बन्धमा म र मेरो राज्य सदासर्वदा परमप्रभुको सामु निर्दोष छौं ।
And afterward when David heard it, he said, I and my kingdom are guiltless before the LORD for ever from the blood of Abner the son of Ner:
29 अबनेरको मृत्यको दोष योआब र तिनको बुबाको सारा घरानाको शिरमाथि नै परोस् । योआबको परिवारमा घाउ-खटिरा हुने वा छालाको रोग हुने वा लङ्गडो वा लट्ठीको साहाराले हिंड्ने वा खानाविना भौंतारिने मानिस कहिल्यै नटुटोस् ।”
Let it rest on the head of Joab, and on all his father's house; and let there not fail from the house of Joab one that has an issue, or that is a leper, or that leans on a staff, or that falls on the sword, or that lacks bread.
30 यसरी योआब र तिनका भाइ अबीशैले अबनेरलाई मारे, किनभने तिनले गिबोनको युद्धमा तिनीहरूका भाइ असाहेललाई मारेका थिए ।
So Joab, and Abishai his brother slew Abner, because he had slain their brother Asahel at Gibeon in the battle.
31 दाऊदले योआब र तिनीसँग भएका सबै मानिसलाई यसो भने, “आफ्नो लुगा च्यात, भाङ्ग्रा लगाओ र अबनेरको मृत शरीको सामु विलाप गर ।” दाऊद राजा मृत्यु संस्कारको लस्करमा लासको पछि-पछि हिंडे ।
And David said to Joab, and to all the people that were with him, Rend your clothes, and gird you with sackcloth, and mourn before Abner. And king David himself followed the bier.
32 तिनीहरूले अबनेरलाई हेब्रोनमा गाडे । अबनेरको चिहानमा राजा ठुलो धुरु-धुरु रोए र सबै मानिसहरू पनि रोए ।
And they buried Abner in Hebron: and the king lifted up his voice, and wept at the grave of Abner; and all the people wept.
33 राजाले अबनेरको निम्ति विलाप गरे र गित गाए, “के अबनेरले मूर्खले झैं मर्नुपर्छ?
And the king lamented over Abner, and said, Died Abner as a fool dies?
34 तिम्रा हातहरू बाँधिएका थिएनन् । तिम्रा खुट्टाहरू साङ्लाले बाँधिएका थिएनन् । एक जना मानिस अन्यायीको छोराको सामु ढलेझैं, तिमी पनि ढल्यौ ।” फेरि एक पल्ट सबै मानिस तिनको निम्ति रोए ।
Your hands were not bound, nor your feet put into fetters: as a man falls before wicked men, so fell you. And all the people wept again over him.
35 दिन छँदा नै दाऊदललाई खान मनाउन सबे मानिस आए तर दाऊदले शपथ खाए, “घाम नडुबेसम्म मैले रोटी वा कुनै कुरा चाखें भने परमेश्वरले मलाई यो वा योभन्दा बढ्ता गर्नुभएको होस् ।”
And when all the people came to cause David to eat food while it was yet day, David swore, saying, So do God to me, and more also, if I taste bread, or ought else, till the sun be down.
36 सबै मानिसले दाऊदको विलापलाई ख्याल गरे र यसले तिनीहरूलाई प्रशन्न तुल्यायो । दाऊदले जे गरे त्यसले तिनीहरूलाई खुसी तुल्यायो ।
And all the people took notice of it, and it pleased them: as whatsoever the king did pleased all the people.
37 त्यसैले नेरका छोरा अबनेरलाई मार्ने इच्छा राजाको थिएन भन्ने सारा मानिस र सारा इस्राएलले बुझे ।
For all the people and all Israel understood that day that it was not of the king to slay Abner the son of Ner.
38 राजाले आफ्ना सेवकहरूलाई भने, “आजको दिन इस्राएलमा एक जना शासक र महान् मानिस मरेका छन् भनी तिमीहरूलाई थाहा छैन?
And the king said unto his servants, Know all of you not that there is a prince and a great man fallen this day in Israel?
39 म अभिषिक्त राजा भएर पनि अहिले म कमजोर भएको छु । यी मानिसहरू, सरूयाहका छोराहरू मप्रति साह्रै निर्दयी भएका छन् । तिनको दुष्टता सुहाउँदो दण्ड परमप्रभुले तिनलाई दिनुभएको होस् ।”
And I am this day weak, though anointed king; and these men the sons of Zeruiah be too hard for me: the LORD shall reward the doer of evil according to his wickedness.
