< यहोशू 10 >

1 यरूशलेमका राजा अदोनिसेदेकले यहोशूले ऐलाई कब्जा गरेका र यसलाई (तिनले यरीहो र यसका राजालाई गरेझैँ) पूर्ण रूपमा नष्‍ट गरेका कुरा सुने, अनि गिबोनका मानिसहरूले इस्राएलसँग कसरी शान्ति सम्झौता गरे र तिनीहरूका माझ बस्‍छन् भन्‍ने पनि सुने ।
Now when Adoni-Zedek king of Jerusalem heard how Joshua had taken Ai, and had utterly destroyed it; as he had done to Jericho and her king, so he had done to Ai and her king; and how the inhabitants of Gibeon had made peace with Israel, and were amongst them,
2 यरूशलेमका मानिसहरू साह्रै भयभीत भए, किनभने गिबोन राजकीय सहरहरूमध्ये एकजस्तै ठुलो सहर थियो । यो ऐभन्दा ठुलो र यसका सबै मानिस शक्‍तिशाली योद्धाहरू थिए ।
they were very afraid, because Gibeon was a great city, as one of the royal cities, and because it was greater than Ai, and all its men were mighty.
3 त्यसैले यरूशलेमका राजा अदोनिसेदेकले हेब्रोनका राजा होहाम, यर्मूतका राजा पिराम, लाकीशका राजा यापी र एग्लोनका राजा दबीरलाई एउटा सन्देश पठाए,
Therefore Adoni-Zedek king of Jerusalem sent to Hoham king of Hebron, Piram king of Jarmuth, Japhia king of Lachish, and Debir king of Eglon, saying,
4 “मकहाँ आउनुहोस् र गिबोनलाई आक्रमण गर्न मलाई सहायता गर्नुहोस् किनभने तिनीहरूले यहोशू र इस्राएलका मानिसहरूसँग शान्ति सम्झौता गरेका छन् ।”
“Come up to me and help me. Let’s strike Gibeon; for they have made peace with Joshua and with the children of Israel.”
5 पाँच एमोरी राजा अर्थात् हेब्रोनका राजा, यर्मूतका राजा, लाकीशका राजा र एग्लोनका राजा, उनीहरू र उनीहरूका सबै फौजले गिबोनविरुद्ध मोर्चा बाँधे र उनीहरूले यसलाई आक्रमण गरे ।
Therefore the five kings of the Amorites, the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, and the king of Eglon, gathered themselves together and went up, they and all their armies, and encamped against Gibeon, and made war against it.
6 गिबोनका मानिसहरूले यहोशू र गिलगालमा भएका फौजलाई समाचार पठाए । उनीहरूले भने, “चाँडो गर्नुहोस्! तपाईंका दासहरूबाट आफ्ना हातहरू नखिँच्‍नुहोस् । हामीकहाँ चाँडो गरी आउनुहोस् र हामीलाई बचाउनुहोस् । हामीलाई सहायता गर्नुहोस्, किनभने पहाडी देशहरूमा बस्‍ने सबै एमोरी राजा हामीलाई आक्रमण गर्न भेला भएका छन् ।”
The men of Gibeon sent to Joshua at the camp at Gilgal, saying, “Don’t abandon your servants! Come up to us quickly and save us! Help us; for all the kings of the Amorites that dwell in the hill country have gathered together against us.”
7 यहोशू, तिनी र तिनीसँग भएका युद्ध गर्ने सबै अनि लड्‍ने सबै मानिस गिलगालबाट गए ।
So Joshua went up from Gilgal, he and the whole army with him, including all the mighty men of valour.
8 परमप्रभुले यहोशूलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “उनीहरूसँग नडरा । मैले उनीहरूलाई तेरो हातमा दिएको छु । उनीहरू कसैले पनि तेरो आक्रमणलाई रोक्‍न सक्‍ने छैनन् ।
The LORD said to Joshua, “Don’t fear them, for I have delivered them into your hands. Not a man of them will stand before you.”
9 यहशूले रातभरि यात्रा गरेर उनीहरूमाथि अचानक जाइलागे ।
Joshua therefore came to them suddenly. He marched from Gilgal all night.
10 परमप्रभुले इस्राएलका सामु शत्रुहरूलाई अन्योलमा पार्नुभयो, र इस्राएलले गिबोनमा ठुलो संहारको साथ उनीहरूलाई मारे अनि उनीहरूलाई बेथ-होरोनसम्मै खेदे । तिनीहरूले आजेका र मक्‍केदाको बाटोसम्मै उनीहरूलाई मारे ।
The LORD confused them before Israel. He killed them with a great slaughter at Gibeon, and chased them by the way of the ascent of Beth Horon, and struck them to Azekah and to Makkedah.
11 जब तिनीहरू इस्राएलबाट बेथ-होरोनको डाँडाको ओरालोमा झरे, परमप्रभुले स्वर्गबाट ठुला-ठुला असिनाहरू बर्साउनुभयो र उनीहरू मरे । इस्राएलका मानिसहरूले तरवारले मारेका भन्दा असिनाको कारण मरेकाहरू धैरै थिए । त्यस दिन परमप्रभुले इस्राएलका मानिसहरूलाई एमोरीहरूमाथि विजय दिनुभयो,
As they fled from before Israel, while they were at the descent of Beth Horon, the LORD hurled down great stones from the sky on them to Azekah, and they died. There were more who died from the hailstones than those whom the children of Israel killed with the sword.
12 अनि यहोशू परमप्रभुसँग बोले । यहोशूले इस्राएलको सामु परमप्रभुलाई यसो भने, “ए सूर्य, गिबोनमाथि र ए चन्द्र अय्यालोनको बेँसीमा अडिरह ।” जातिले तिनीहरूका शत्रुहरूमाथि बदला नलिएसम्म सूर्य अडियो र चन्द्र रोकियो । के यो याशारको पुस्तकमा लेखिएको छैन र?
Then Joshua spoke to the LORD in the day when the LORD delivered up the Amorites before the children of Israel. He said in the sight of Israel, “Sun, stand still on Gibeon! You, moon, stop in the valley of Aijalon!”
13 सूर्य आकाशको बिचमा रहिरह्यो; यो झण्डै पुरै दिनभरि नै अस्ताएन ।
The sun stood still, and the moon stayed, until the nation had avenged themselves of their enemies. Isn’t this written in the book of Jashar? The sun stayed in the middle of the sky, and didn’t hurry to go down about a whole day.
14 परमप्रभुले मानव-जातिको कुरा सुन्‍नुभयो, यसअगि र यसपछि कहिल्यै पनि यस्तो भएको छैन । किनभने परमप्रभुले इस्राएलको तर्फबाट युद्ध लडिरहनुभएको थियो ।
There was no day like that before it or after it, that the LORD listened to the voice of a man; for the LORD fought for Israel.
15 यहोशू र तिनीसँग भएका सबै इस्राएली गिलगालको छाउनीमा फर्के ।
Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, to the camp to Gilgal.
16 अब पाँच जना राजा उम्केका र आफै मक्‍केदाको गुफामा लुकेका थिए ।
These five kings fled, and hid themselves in the cave at Makkedah.
17 यहोशूलाई यसो भनियो, “पाँच जना राजा मक्‍केदाको गुफामा लुकेको भेट्टाइए ।”
Joshua was told, saying, “The five kings have been found, hidden in the cave at Makkedah.”
18 यहोशूले भने, “गुफाको मुखमा ठुला-ठुला ढुङ्गाहरू गुडाएर राख र उनीहरूको सुरक्षाको निम्ति सिपाहीहरू खटाओ ।
Joshua said, “Roll large stones to cover the cave’s entrance, and set men by it to guard them;
19 तिमीहरूचाहिँ नबस । तिमीहरूका शत्रुहरूको पिछा गर र पछाडिबाट आक्रमण गर । उनीहरूको सहरमा पस्‍न नदेओ किनभने परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्‍वरले उनीहरूलाई तिमीहरूका हातमा दिनुभएको छ ।”
but don’t stay there. Pursue your enemies, and attack them from the rear. Don’t allow them to enter into their cities; for the LORD your God has delivered them into your hand.”
20 उनीहरू झण्डै पूर्ण रूपमा नष्‍ट नभएसम्म नै यहोशू र इस्राएलका सन्तानहरूले उनीहरूलाई ठुलो संहारको साथ संहार गरिसिद्ध्याएका थिए; केही बचेकाहरू मात्र उम्केर किल्ला भएको सहरमा पुगे ।
When Joshua and the children of Israel had finished killing them with a very great slaughter until they were consumed, and the remnant which remained of them had entered into the fortified cities,
21 त्यसपछि सबै फौज मक्‍केदाको छाउनीमा यहोशूकहाँ शान्तिसँग फर्के । इस्राएलका मानिसहरूका विरुद्ध कसैले एक शब्द पनि बोल्ने आँट गरेन ।
all the people returned to the camp to Joshua at Makkedah in peace. None moved his tongue against any of the children of Israel.
22 यहोशूले भने, “गुफाको मुख खोल । गुफाबाट यी राजाहरूलाई लिएर आओ ।”
Then Joshua said, “Open the cave entrance, and bring those five kings out of the cave to me.”
23 तिनीहरूले तिनले भनेझैँ गरे । तिनीहरूले यरूशलेमका राजा, हेब्रोनका राजा, यार्मूतका राजा, लाकीशका राजा र एग्लोनका राजा अर्थात् यी पाँच जना राजालाई गुफाबाट बाहिर ल्याए ।
They did so, and brought those five kings out of the cave to him: the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, and the king of Eglon.
24 जब तिनीहरूले राजाहरूलाई यहोशूकहाँ ल्याए, तिनले इस्राएलका सबै मानिसलाई बोलाए । तिनले तिनीसँग युद्धमा जाने सेनाहरूका सेनापतिहरूलाई भने, “उनीहरूको गर्दनमा तिमीहरूको खुट्टाले टेक ।” त्यसैले तिनीहरू आए र उनीहरूका गर्दनमाथि तिनीहरूका खुट्टाले टेके ।
When they brought those kings out to Joshua, Joshua called for all the men of Israel, and said to the chiefs of the men of war who went with him, “Come near. Put your feet on the necks of these kings.” They came near, and put their feet on their necks.
25 अनि तिनले तिनीहरूलाई भने, “नडराओ, र निराश नहोओ । बलियो र साहसी होओ । तिमीहरूले लड्न गइरहेका तिमीहरूका शत्रुहरूलाई परमप्रभुले यसै गर्नुहुन्छ ।”
Joshua said to them, “Don’t be afraid, nor be dismayed. Be strong and courageous, for the LORD will do this to all your enemies against whom you fight.”
26 अनि यहोशूले आक्रमण गरी राजाहरूलाई मारे । तिनले उनीहरूलाई पाँचवटा रुखमा झुण्ड्याए । तिनीहरूले उनीहरूलाई साँझसम्म झुण्ड्याए ।
Afterward Joshua struck them, put them to death, and hanged them on five trees. They were hanging on the trees until the evening.
27 घाम अस्ताउँदा यहोशूले आज्ञा दिए र तिनीहरूले उनीहरूलाई रुखबाट तल झारे अनि उनीहरू लुकेका गुफाभित्र नै उनीहरूलाई फ्याँकिदिए । तिनीहरूले गुफाको मुखमा ठुला-ठुला ढुङ्गाहरू राखे । ती ढुङ्गाहरू आजसम्म पनि छन् ।
At the time of the going down of the sun, Joshua commanded, and they took them down off the trees, and threw them into the cave in which they had hidden themselves, and laid great stones on the mouth of the cave, which remain to this very day.
28 यसरी, यहोशूले त्यस दिन मक्‍केदा कब्जा गरे र यसका राजासहित त्यहाँ भएका सबैलाई तरवारले मारे । तिनले यसमा भएका सबैलाई पूर्ण रूपमा नष्‍ट पारे । तिनले कसैलाई पनि जीवित छोडेनन् । तिनले मक्‍केदाका राजालाई यरीहोका राजालाई झैँ गरे ।
Joshua took Makkedah on that day, and struck it with the edge of the sword, with its king. He utterly destroyed it and all the souls who were in it. He left no one remaining. He did to the king of Makkedah as he had done to the king of Jericho.
29 यहोशू र सारा इस्राएल मक्‍केदाबाट लिब्‍नातिर गए । तिनले लिब्‍नाविरुद्ध लडे ।
Joshua passed from Makkedah, and all Israel with him, to Libnah, and fought against Libnah.
30 परमप्रभुले यसलाई उनीहरूका राजासहित इस्राएलको हातमा दिनुभयो । यहोशूले यसलाई र यसमा भएका सबैलाई तरवारले प्रहार गरे । तिनले यसमा कसैलाई जीवित छाडेनन् । तिनले यसका राजालाई यरीहोका राजालाई झैँ गरे ।
The LORD delivered it also, with its king, into the hand of Israel. He struck it with the edge of the sword, and all the souls who were in it. He left no one remaining in it. He did to its king as he had done to the king of Jericho.
31 यहोशू र तिनीसँग भएका सबै इस्राएल लिब्‍नाबाट लाकीशतिर अगि बढे । तिनले यसको नजिकै छाउनी हाले र यसविरुद्ध लडे ।
Joshua passed from Libnah, and all Israel with him, to Lachish, and encamped against it, and fought against it.
32 परमप्रभुले लाकीशलाई इस्राएलको हातमा दिनुभयो । यहोशूले यसलाई दोस्रो दिनमा कब्जा गरे र तिनले लिब्‍नालाई गरेजस्तै यसलाई र यसमा भएका सबैलाई तरवारले प्रहार गरे ।
The LORD delivered Lachish into the hand of Israel. He took it on the second day, and struck it with the edge of the sword, with all the souls who were in it, according to all that he had done to Libnah.
33 त्यसपछि गेजेरका राजा होराम लाकीशलाई सहायता गर्न आए । यहोशूले उनलाई र उनीसँग भएका फौजलाई एक जना पनि जीवित नराखी आक्रमण गरे ।
Then Horam king of Gezer came up to help Lachish; and Joshua struck him and his people, until he had left him no one remaining.
34 त्यसपछि यहोशू र सारा इस्राएल लाकीशबाट एग्लोनतिर अगि बढे । तिनीहरूले यसको नजिकै छाउनी हाले र यसविरुद्ध युद्ध गरे,
Joshua passed from Lachish, and all Israel with him, to Eglon; and they encamped against it and fought against it.
35 र त्यसै दिन यसलाई कब्जा गरे । तिनीहरूले यसलाई तरवारले प्रहार गरे र यहोशूले लाकीशलाई गरे झैँ यसमा भएका सबैलाई पूर्ण रूपमा नष्‍ट पारे ।
They took it on that day, and struck it with the edge of the sword. He utterly destroyed all the souls who were in it that day, according to all that he had done to Lachish.
36 त्यसपछि यहोशू र सारा इस्राएल एग्लोनबाट हेब्रोनतिर अगि बढे । तिनीहरूले यसविरुद्ध युद्ध गरे ।
Joshua went up from Eglon, and all Israel with him, to Hebron; and they fought against it.
37 तिनीहरूले यसलाई, यसका राजा, यसका गाउँहरू र यसमा भएका सबैलाई तरवारले प्रहार गरे । तिनीहरूले यसमा कसैलाई जीवित छाडेनन् । तिनीहरूले एग्‍लोनलाई जे गरेका थिए, तिनीहरूले यसलाई र यसमा भएका हरेकलाई पूर्ण रूपमा नष्‍ट पारे ।
They took it, and struck it with the edge of the sword, with its king and all its cities, and all the souls who were in it. He left no one remaining, according to all that he had done to Eglon; but he utterly destroyed it, and all the souls who were in it.
38 त्यसपछि यहोशू र तिनीसँग भएका सबै फौज फर्के र तिनीहरू दबीरतिर लागे र यसविरुद्ध युद्ध गरे ।
Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, to Debir, and fought against it.
39 तिनीहरूले यसलाई, यसका राजा र यस नजिकका सबै गाउँलाई कब्जा गरे । तिनीहरूले उनीहरूलाई तरवारले प्रहार गरे र यसमा भएका हरेकलाई पूर्ण रूपमा नष्‍ट पारे । तिनीहरूले कसैलाई पनि जीवित छाडेनन् । तिनीहरूले लिब्‍नालाई र यसका राजालाई र हेब्रोनलाई गरेझैँ दबीरलाई पनि गरे ।
He took it, with its king and all its cities. They struck them with the edge of the sword, and utterly destroyed all the souls who were in it. He left no one remaining. As he had done to Hebron, so he did to Debir, and to its king; as he had done also to Libnah, and to its king.
40 यहोशूले पहाडी देश, नेगेव, समथर भूमि र पहाडहरूका सबै भूमिमाथि विजय हासिल गरे । उनीहरूका कुनै पनि राजा जीवित रहेनन् । परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्‍वरले आज्ञा गर्नुभएजस्तै तिनले सबै थोकलाई पूर्ण रूपमा नष्‍ट पारे ।
So Joshua struck all the land, the hill country, the South, the lowland, the slopes, and all their kings. He left no one remaining, but he utterly destroyed all that breathed, as the LORD, the God of Israel, commanded.
41 यहोशूले कादेश-बर्नेदेखि गाजासम्म र गोशेनदेखि गोबोनसम्म सब देशलाई प्रहार गरे ।
Joshua struck them from Kadesh Barnea even to Gaza, and all the country of Goshen, even to Gibeon.
42 यहशूले यी सबै राजा र उनीहरूका भूमिलाई एकै पटकमा कब्जा गरे, किनभने परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमश्‍वर इस्राएलको पक्षमा युद्ध गर्नुभयो ।
Joshua took all these kings and their land at one time because the LORD, the God of Israel, fought for Israel.
43 त्यसपछि यहोशू र तिनीसँग भएका सबै इस्राएल गिलगालको छाउनीमा फर्के ।
Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, to the camp to Gilgal.
