व्यवस्था 2

1 तब हामी परमप्रभुले मलाई भन्‍नुभएझैँ नर्कटहरूको समुद्रको दिशातर्फ उजाड-स्थानमा यात्रा गर्‍यौँ । हामीले धेरै दिनसम्म सेइर पर्वतको फन्को मार्‍यौँ ।

Then we went back, journeying into the waste land by the way to the Red Sea, as the Lord had said to me: and we were a long time going round Mount Seir.

2 परमप्रभुले मलाई यसो भन्‍नुभयो, '

And the Lord said to me,

3 तिमीहरू धेरै दिनसम्म यस पर्वतको वरिपरि घुम्दै छौ । अब उत्तरतिर फर्क ।

You have been journeying round this mountain long enough: now go to the north;

4 मानिसहरूलाई यसो भनी आज्ञा दे, 'तिमीहरू सेइरमा बस्‍ने एसावका सन्तानहरू अर्थात् तिमीहरूका दाजुभाइहरूको सिमाना पार गरेर जानुपर्छ । तिनीहरू तिमीहरूदेखि डराउने छन् । त्यसकारण सावधान होओ ।

And give the people orders, saying, You are about to go through the land of your brothers, the children of Esau, who are living in Seir; and they will have fear of you; so take care what you do:

5 तिनीहरूसँग लडाइँ नगर्नू किनकि म तिनीहरूको कुनै पनि देश तिमीहरूलाई दिने छैनँ । पैतलाले टेक्‍ने जत्रो ठाउँ पनि म तिमीहरूलाई दिने छैनँ । किनकि मैले सेइर पर्वत एसावको अधिकारमा दिएको छु ।

Make no attack on them, for I will not give you any of their land, not even space enough for a man's foot: because I have given Mount Seir to Esau for his heritage.

6 तिमीहरूले खानका लागि पैसा तिरेर तिनीहरूबाट खाना किन्‍नू । तिमीहरूले पिउनका लागि पैसा तिरेर तिनीहरूबाट पानी पनि किन्‍नू ।

You may get food for your needs from them for a price, and water for drinking.

7 किनकि परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्‍वरले तिमीहरूलाई तिमीहरूका हातका सबै काममा तिमीहरूलाई आशिष् दिनुभएको छ । यो ठुलो उजाड-स्थानको यात्राभरि उहाँले तिमीहरूको हेरचाह गर्नुभएको छ । यी चालिस वर्ष परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्‍वर तिमीहरूसित हुनुभएको छ, र तिमीहरूलाई कुनै कुरोको कमी भएको छैन' ।”

For the blessing of the Lord your God has been on you in all the work of your hands: he has knowledge of your wanderings through this great waste: these forty years the Lord your God has been with you, and you have been short of nothing.

8 त्यसैले हामी सेइरमा बस्‍ने एसावका सन्तानहरू अर्थात् हाम्रा दाजुभाइहरूका सिमानाहरू भएर गयौँ । यो ठाउँ एलात र एस्योन-गेबेर अनि अराबाट पर पर्छ । तब हामी फर्केर मोआबको उजाड-स्थानको बाटो लाग्यौँ ।

So we went on past our brothers, the children of Esau, living in Seir, by the road through the Arabah, from Elath and Ezion-geber. And turning, we went by the road through the waste land of Moab.

9 परमप्रभुले मलाई भन्‍नुभयो, 'मोआबलाई दुःख नदे, र तिनीहरूसित लडाइँ नगर् । म त्यसको देश तिमीहरूको आफ्नो अधिकार हुनलाई दिन्‍नँ किनभने मैले आर सहरलाई लोतका सन्तानहरूको अधिकार हुनलाई दिएको छु ।'

And the Lord said to me, Make no attack on Moab and do not go to war with them, for I will not give you any of his land: because I have given Ar to the children of Lot for their heritage.

10 (पहिले त्यहाँ एमीहरू बस्थे जुन जाति पराक्रमी, असङ्ख्य र अनाकीहरूजस्तै अग्ला-अग्ला थिए ।

(In the past the Emim were living there; a great people, equal in numbers to the Anakim and as tall;

11 अनाकीहरूझैँ यी मानिसहरू पनि रपाईहरू हुन् भनी ठानिन्छ, तर मोआबीहरूले तिनीहरूलाई एमी भन्थे ।

They are numbered among the Rephaim, like the Anakim; but are named Emim by the Moabites.

12 सेइरमा पहिले होरीहरू पनि बस्थे, तर एसावका सन्तानहरूले तिनीहरूलाई धपाए । तिनीहरूले होरीहरूलाई त्यहाँबाट निकाली तिनीहरूको ठाउँमा बसोबास गरे जस्तो परमप्रभुले इस्राएललाई तिनीहरूको अधिकारको रूपमा यो देश दिनुभएको थियो ।)

And the Horites in earlier times were living in Seir, but the children of Esau took their place; they sent destruction on them and took their land for themselves, as Israel did to the land of his heritage which the Lord gave them.)

13 'अब उठेर जेरेद खोला पारि जाओ ।' त्यसैले हामी जेरेद खोला पारि गयौँ ।

Get up now, and go over the stream Zered. So we went over the stream Zered.

14 कादेश-बर्नेबाट जेरेद खोला पारिसम्म आउन हामीलाई अठतिस दिन लाग्यो । त्यस बेलासम्म परमप्रभुले शपथ खानुभएझैँ लडाइँको लागि योग्य सबै मानिसको त्यो पुस्ता नष्‍ट भइसकेको थियो ।

Thirty-eight years had gone by from the time when we came away from Kadesh-barnea till we went over the stream Zered; by that time all the generation of the men of war among us were dead, as the Lord had said.

15 त्यस बाहेक, तिनीहरूलाई नष्‍ट नपारूञ्‍जेल परमप्रभुको हात त्यो पुस्ताको विरुद्धमा थियो ।

For the hand of the Lord was against them, working their destruction, till all were dead.

16 जब मानिसहरूका बिचबाट लडाइँको लागि योग्य सबै मानिस मरेर गए,

So when death had overtaken all the men of war among the people,

17 परमप्रभुले मलाई यसो भन्‍नुभयो,

The word of the Lord came to me, saying,

18 'आज तिमीहरूले मोआबको सिमाना आर सहरलाई पार गर्नुपर्छ ।

You are about to go by Ar, the limit of the country of Moab;

19 तिमीहरू अम्मोनका मानिसहरूको सिमानामा आइपुग्दा तिनीहरूलाई दुःख नदेओ वा तिनीहरूसित लडाइँ नगर । अम्मोनीहरूको कुनै पनि भूमि म तिमीहरूको अधिकारको रूपमा दिन्‍नँ । किनकि मैले यो देश लोतका सन्तानहरूलाई अधिकारको रूपमा दिएको छु ।'

And when you come near the land of the children of Ammon, give them no cause of trouble and do not make war on them, for I will not give you any of the land of the children of Ammon for your heritage: because I have given it to the children of Lot.

20 (त्यसलाई पनि रपाईहरूको देश ठानिन्थ्यो । त्यहाँ पहिले रपाईहरू बस्थे, तर अम्मोनीहरूले तिनीहरूलाई जमजुम्मीहरू भन्दथे ।

(That land is said to have been a land of the Rephaim, for Rephaim had been living there in earlier times, but they were named Zamzummim by the Ammonites;

21 तिनीहरू पराक्रमी, असङ्ख्य र अनाकीहरूझैँ अग्ला-अग्ला थिए । तर परमप्रभुले अम्मोनीहरूकै सामुन्‍ने तिनीहरूलाई नष्‍ट गरिदिनुभयो र तिनीहरूले यिनीहरूलाई धपाएर तिनीहरू यिनीहरूको ठाउँमा बसे ।

They were a great people, tall as the Anakim, and equal to them in number; but the Lord sent destruction on them and the children of Ammon took their place, living in their land;

22 परमप्रभुले सेइरमा बस्‍ने एसावका सन्तानहरूकै सामुन्‍ने होरीहरूलाई नष्‍ट गरी तिनीहरूको ठाउँमा यिनीहरूलाई राख्‍नुहुँदा यिनीहरूका लागि पनि यसै गर्नुभयो । यिनीहरू आजसम्म यहाँ बसोबास गर्दै छन् ।

As he did for the children of Esau living in Seir, when he sent destruction on the Horites before them, and they took their land where they are living to this day:

23 गाजासम्म टाढा गाउँहरूमा बस्‍ने अव्वीहरूलाई कप्‍तोरबाट आएका कप्‍तोरीहरूले नष्‍ट पारी तिनीहरूको ठाउँमा बसोबास गरे ।)

And the Avvim, living in the small towns as far as Gaza, came to destruction by the hands of the Caphtorim who came out from Caphtor and took their land.)

24 'अब उठेर आफ्ना यात्रा थाल अनि अर्नोनको बेँसी पार गर । हेर, मैले हेश्बोनका राजा एमोरी सीहोन र त्यसको देश तिमीहरूलाई दिएको छु । यसलाई कब्जा गर्न थाल र त्योसित लडाइँ गर ।

Get up now, and go on your journey, crossing over the valley of the Arnon: see, I have given into your hands Sihon, the Amorite, king of Heshbon, and all his land: go forward to make it yours, and make war on him,

25 पुरै आकाशमुनि भएका जाति-जातिहरूमा म तिमीहरूको डर र त्रास हाल्न सुरु गर्ने छु । तिनीहरूले तिमीहरूको बारेमा भएको खबर सुनेर थरथर काम्‍ने छन् अनि तिमीहरूको कारणले विचलित हुने छन् ।'

From now on I will put the fear of you in all peoples under heaven, who, hearing of you, will be shaking with fear and grief of heart because of you.

26 मैले कदेमोतको उजाड-स्थानबाट हेश्बोनका राजा सीहोनलाई शान्तिका वचनहरूसहित सन्देशवाकहरू पठाएँ,

Then from the waste land of Kedemoth I sent representatives to Sihon, king of Heshbon, with words of peace, saying,

27 'मलाई तपाईंको देश भएर जान दिनुहोस् । म लोकमार्ग भएर जानेछु । म दाहिने र देब्रे लाग्‍ने छैनँ ।

Let me go through your land: I will keep to the highway, not turning to the right or to the left;

28 खानको लागि तपाईंले मलाई पैसामा खाना बेच्नुहुने छ र पिउनको लागि पैसामा पानी दिनुहुने छ । केवल मलाई तपाईंको देश भएर जान दिनुहोस्

Let me have food, at a price, for my needs, and water for drinking: only let me go through on foot;

29 । जसरी सेइरमा बस्‍ने एसावका सन्तानहरू र आर सहरमा बस्‍ने मोआबीहरूले मेरो निम्ति गरेथे त्यसै गरी मैले यर्दन पार गरी परमप्रभु हाम्रा परमेश्‍वरले हामीलाई दिनुहुने देशमा नपुगेसम्म त्यसै गर्नुहोस् ।'

As the children of Esau did for me in Seir and the Moabites in Ar; till I have gone over Jordan into the land which the Lord our God is giving us.

30 तर हेश्बोनका राजा सीहोनले हाम्रो कुरा सुनेनन् र हामीलाई तिनको बाटो भएर जान दिएनन् । किनकि परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्‍वरले तिनको मन कठोर बनाइदिनुभएको थियो र तिनको हृदय हठी बनाइदिनुभएको थियो ताकि तिमीहरूको शक्तिद्वारा उहाँले तिनलाई पराजित गर्नुभएको होस् जस्तो उहाँले आजको दिनसम्म गर्नुभएको छ ।

But Sihon, king of Heshbon, would not let us go through; for the Lord your God made his spirit hard and his heart strong, so that he might give him up into your hands as at this day.

31 परमप्रभुले मलाई भन्‍नुभयो, 'हेर्, मैले तेरै सामुन्‍ने सीहोन र त्यसको देश तँलाई दिन थालेको छु । यस देशमाथि तेरो अधिकार होस् भनेर यसलाई कब्जा गर्न थाल् ।'

And the Lord said to me, See, from now on I have given Sihon and his land into your hands: go forward now to take his land and make it yours.

32 तब सीहोन आफ्ना सबै मानिस लिएर यहसा भन्‍ने ठाउँमा हाम्रो विरुद्धमा लड्न आए ।

Then Sihon came out against us with all his people, to make an attack on us at Jahaz.

33 परमप्रभु हाम्रा परमेश्‍वरले तिनलाई हाम्रो हातमा सुम्पिदिनुभयो र हामीले तिनी, तिनका छोराहरू र तिनका सबै मानिसलाई पराजित गर्‍यौँ ।

And the Lord our God gave him into our hands; and we overcame him and his sons and all his people.

34 त्यस बेला हामीले तिनका सबै सहर कब्जा गरी हरेक सहर, पुरुष र स्‍त्रीहरू अनि बालबच्‍चाहरूलाई पूर्ण रूपले नष्‍ट पार्‍यौँ । एउटै पनि बाँचेन ।

At that time we took all his towns, and gave them over to complete destruction, together with men, women, and children; we had no mercy on any:

35 आफ्ना निम्ति लुटको मालको रूपमा लगेका गाईवस्तु र सहरबाट लुटिएका मालहरू मात्र हामीले लियौँ ।

Only the cattle we took for ourselves, with the goods from the towns we had taken.

36 अर्नोन बेँसीको छेउमा भएको अरोएरदेखि र बेँसीमा भएको सहरदेखि गिलादसम्म हामीले कब्जा गर्न नसक्‍ने कुनै सहर थिएन । परमप्रभु हाम्रा परमेश्‍वरले ती हाम्रा हातमा दिनुभयो ।

From Aroer on the edge of the valley of the Arnon and from the town in the valley as far as Gilead, no town was strong enough to keep us out; the Lord our God gave them all into our hands:

37 केवल अम्मोनका सन्तानहरूको देशसाथै यब्बोक नदीका सबै किनाराका जग्गा अनि पहाडी देशका सहरहरू जहाँ परमप्रभु हाम्रा परमेश्‍वरले जान हामीलाई निषेध गर्नुभयो थियो, त्यहाँ तिमीहरू गएनौ ।

But you did not go near the land of the children of Ammon, that is, all the side of the river Jabbok or the towns of the hill-country, wherever the Lord our God had said we were not to go.
