यहोशू 11

1 जब हासोरका राजा याबीनले यो सुने, उनले मादोनका राजा रोबाब, शिम्रोनका राजा र आक्षापका राजालाई समाचार पठाए ।

Now when Jabin king of Hazor heard about these things, he sent word to Jobab king of Madon; to the kings of Shimron and Achshaph;

2 उनले उत्तरी पहाडी देशमा, किन्‍नरेतको दक्षिणतिरको यर्दन बेँसीमा, तराईमा र पश्‍चिमतिरको नपोत डोरमा बस्‍ने राजाहरूलाई पनि समाचार पठाए ।

to the kings of the north in the mountains, in the Arabah south of Chinnereth, in the foothills, and in Naphoth-dor to the west;

3 उनले पूर्व र पश्‍चिमका कनानीहरू, एमोरीहरू, हित्तीहरू, परिज्‍जीहरू, पहाडी देशका यबूसीहरू मिस्पाको मैदान नजिकका हेर्मोन डाँडा छेउछाउका हिव्वीहरूलाई पनि समाचार पठाए ।

to the Canaanites in the east and west; to the Amorites, Hittites, Perizzites, and Jebusites in the hill country; and to the Hivites at the foot of Hermon in the land of Mizpah.

4 उनीहरूका सबै फौज उनीहरूसँगै समुद्र किनारको बालुवाका कण जत्तिकै ठुलो सङ्ख्यामा आए । उनीहरूसँग कैयौँ घोडा र रथहरू थिए ।

So these kings came out with all their armies, a multitude as numerous as the sand on the seashore, along with a great number of horses and chariots.

5 यी सबै राजा तोकिएको समयमा भेटे र उनीहरू इस्राएलविरुद्ध लड्नलाई मेरोमको पानी नजिकै छाउनी हाले ।

All these kings joined forces and encamped at the waters of Merom to fight against Israel.

6 परमप्रभुले यहोशूलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “उनीहरूको उपस्थितिमा नडरा किनभने म भोली यसै समयमा उनीहरू सबैलाई इस्राएलको हातमा मृत मानिसहरूको रूपमा दिँदै छु । तैँले उनीहरूका घोडाहरूको ढोड नसा काटिदिनू र उनीहरूका रथहरू जलाइदिनू ।”

Then the LORD said to Joshua, “Do not be afraid of them, for by this time tomorrow I will deliver all of them slain before Israel. You are to hamstring their horses and burn up their chariots.”

7 यहोशू र सबै योद्धा आए । तिनीहरू मेरोमको पानीमा अचानक आए र शत्रुहरूलाई आक्रमण गरे ।

So by the waters of Merom, Joshua and his whole army came upon them suddenly and attacked them,

8 परमप्रभुले शत्रुहरूलाई इस्राएलको हातमा दिनुभयो र तिनीहरूले उनीहरूलाई प्रहार गरे अनि उनीहरूलाई सीदोनसम्म, मिस्रपोत-मैमसम्मै र पूर्वतिर मिस्पाको बेँसीसम्म खेदे । तिनीहरूले उनीहरूमा कोही पनि जीवित नरहेसम्म नै उनीहरूलाई प्रहार गरे ।

and the LORD delivered them into the hand of Israel, who struck them down and pursued them all the way to Greater Sidon and Misrephoth-maim, and eastward as far as the Valley of Mizpeh. They struck them down, leaving no survivors.

9 यहोशूले उनीहरूलाई परमप्रभुले भन्‍नुभएमुताबिक गरे । तिनले घोडाहरूका ढोड नसाहरू काटे र रथहरू जलाए ।

Joshua treated them as the LORD had told him; he hamstrung their horses and burned up their chariots.

10 त्यस बेला यहोशू फर्के र हासोस कब्जा गरे । तिनले यसका राजालाई तरवारले प्रहार गरे । (हासोर यी सबै राज्यका शिर थियो ।)

At that time Joshua turned back and captured Hazor and put its king to the sword, because Hazor was formerly the head of all these kingdoms.

11 तिनीहरूले त्यहाँ भएका सबै जीवित थोकहरूलाई तरवारले प्रहार गरे र नष्‍ट पार्नलाई अलग गरे । त्यसैले त्यहाँ कोही पनि जीवित रहेन । अनि तिनले हासोरलाई आगो लगाए ।

The Israelites put everyone in Hazor to the sword, devoting them to destruction. Nothing that breathed remained, and Joshua burned down Hazor itself.

12 यहोशूले यी राजाहरूका सबै सहर कब्जा गरे । तिनले उनीहरूका सबै राजालाई कब्जा गरे र उनीहरूलाई तरवारले प्रहार गरे । परमप्रभुका दास मोशाले भनेझैँ तिनले उनीहरूलाई तरवारले पूर्ण रूपमा नष्‍ट पारे ।

Joshua captured all these kings and their cities and put them to the sword. He devoted them to destruction, as Moses the LORD’s servant had commanded.

13 इस्राएलले डाँडामाथि निर्मित सहरहरू हासोरबाहेक अरू कुनैलाई पनि जलाएन । यहोशूले यसलाई मात्र जलाए ।

Yet Israel did not burn any of the cities built on their mounds, except Hazor, which Joshua burned.

14 इस्राएलको फौजले यी सहरहरूबाट गाईवस्तुहरूसहित सबै लूटका माल लिए । तिनीहरूले सबै मानिस नमरेसम्म सबै मानिसलाई तरवारले मारे । तिनीहरूले सास फेर्ने कुनै प्राणीलाई जीवित छाडेनन् ।

The Israelites took for themselves all the plunder and livestock of these cities, but they put all the people to the sword until they had completely destroyed them, not sparing anyone who breathed.

15 परमप्रभुले जसरी मोशालाई आज्ञा गर्नुभयो, त्यसरी नै मोशाले यहोशूलाई आज्ञा गरे र यहोशूले त्यसै गरे । परमप्रभुले मोशालाई आज्ञा गर्नुभएको कुनै पनि कुरालाई यहोशूले अपूरा छोडेनन् ।

As the LORD had commanded His servant Moses, so Moses commanded Joshua. That is what Joshua did, leaving nothing undone of all that the LORD had commanded Moses.

16 यहोशूले पहाडी देश, सबै नेगेव, गोशेनका सबै भूमि, पहाडहरू, यर्दन नदीको बेँसी, इस्राएको पहाडी देश र तराईको सबै भूमिलाई लिए ।

So Joshua took this entire region: the hill country, all the Negev, all the land of Goshen, the western foothills, the Arabah, and the mountains of Israel and their foothills,

17 तिनले एदोम नजिकको हालाक डाँडादेखि उत्तरतिर हेर्मोन डाँडाको मुनि लेबनान नजिकको बेँसीमा पर्ने बाल-गादसम्म उनीहरूका सबै राजाहरूलाई कब्जा गरे र उनीहरूलाई मारे ।

from Mount Halak, which rises toward Seir, as far as Baal-gad in the Valley of Lebanon at the foot of Mount Hermon. He captured all their kings and struck them down, putting them to death.

18 यहोशूले सबै राजासँग लामो समयसम्म युद्ध गरे ।

Joshua waged war against all these kings for a long period of time.

19 गिबोनमा बस्‍ने हिव्वीहरूबाहेक कुनै पनि सहरले इस्राएलको फौजसँग शान्ति सम्झौता गरेनन् । इस्राएलले सबै बाँकी सहरलाई कब्जा गरे ।

No city made peace with the Israelites except the Hivites living in Gibeon; all others were taken in battle.

20 किनभने उनीहरूका हृदय कठोर बनाउनुहुने परमप्रभु नै हुनुहुन्थ्यो, त्यसैले उनीहरूले इस्राएलविरुद्ध लडाइँ गर्थे, ताकि उहाँले मोशालाई अह्राउनुभएझैँ उहाँले उनीहरूलाई दयाविना नै पूर्ण रूपमा नष्‍ट पार्नुभएको होस् ।

For it was of the LORD to harden their hearts to engage Israel in battle, so that they would be set apart for destruction and would receive no mercy, being annihilated as the LORD had commanded Moses.

21 त्यसपछि यहोशू आए र तिनले अनाकीलाई नष्‍ट पारे । तिनले यो पहाडी देश, हेब्रोन, दबीर, अनाब, यहूदाका सबै पहाडी देश र इस्राएलका सबै पहाडी देशमा यसो गरे ।

At that time Joshua proceeded to eliminate the Anakim from the hill country of Hebron, Debir, and Anab, and from all the hill country of Judah and of Israel. Joshua devoted them to destruction, along with their cities.

22 गाजा, गात र अश्दोदमा बस्‍ने बाहेक अनाकीहरू इस्राएलको भूमिमा कोही पनि रहेनन् ।

No Anakim were left in the land of the Israelites; only in Gaza, Gath, and Ashdod did any survive.

23 त्यसैले परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्‍नुभएअनुसार यहोशूले सारा भूमि कब्जा गरे । यहोशूले यसलाई इस्राएललाई उत्तराधिकारको रूपमा दिए अर्थात् उनीहरूका हरेक कुललाई भाग लगाइदिए । त्यसपछि मुलुकले युद्धबाट विश्राम लियो ।

So Joshua took the entire land, in keeping with all that the LORD had spoken to Moses. And Joshua gave it as an inheritance to Israel according to the allotments to their tribes. Then the land had rest from war.
