यहोशू 6
1 इस्राएलका फौजका कारण यरीहोतिरका सबै प्रवेशद्वारहरू बन्द थिए । कोही पनि बाहिर आउँदैनथ्यो र भित्र पस्दैनथ्यो ।
Now Jericho was closed as well as fortified, out of fear of the sons of Israel, and no one dared to depart or to enter.
2 परमप्रभुले यहोशूलाई भन्नुभयो, “हेर्, मैले यरीहोलाई यसको राजा र यसका तालिम प्राप्त सिपाहीहरूसहित तेरो हातमा सुम्पेको छु ।
And the Lord said to Joshua: “Behold, I have given Jericho into your hand, with its king and all the strong men.
3 तिमीहरूले सहरको फेरो मार्नुपर्छ, लडाइँमा जाने सबै मानिसले सहरलाई एक फेरो मार्नुपर्छ । तिमीहरूले छ दिनसम्म यसै गर्नू ।
Have all the warriors circle the city once each day; you shall do so for six days.
4 सात जना पुजारीले सन्दुकको अगि सातवटा भेडाका सिङका सातवटा तुरही बोक्नुपर्छ । सातौँ दिनमा तिमीहरूले सहरलाई सात फेरो मार्नू र पुजारीहरूले तुरही फुक्नू ।
Then, on the seventh day, the priests shall take the seven trumpets, which are used on the jubilee, and they shall precede the ark of the covenant. And you shall circle the city seven times, and the priests shall sound the trumpets.
5 त्यसपछि तिनीहरूले भेडाको सिङको सँगै लामो समयसम्म बजाउनुपर्छ र जब तिमीहरूले त्यो आवाज सुन्छौ सबै मानिस ठुलो स्वरमा कराउनुपर्छ, र सहरको पर्खाल जगसम्म नै ढल्ने छ । हरेक सिपाही सोझै अगि बढेर आक्रमण गर्नुपर्छ ।”
And when the voice of the trumpet sounds longer and with interruptions, and it increases in your ears, then all the people shall cry out together with a very great shout, and the walls of the city shall fall to the foundation, and they shall enter it, each from a place opposite where they are standing.”
6 अनि नूनका छोरा यहोशूले पुजारीहरूलाई बोलाएर तिनीहरूलाई भने, “करारको सन्दुक बोक, र सात जना पुजारीले परमप्रभुको सन्दुक अगिअगि भेडाका सातवटा सिङका तुरहीहरू बोकून् ।”
Then Joshua, the son of Nun, called the priests, and he said to them, “Take the ark of the covenant, and let seven other priests take the seven trumpets of the jubilee, and advance before the ark of the Lord.”
7 तिनले मानिसहरूलाई भने, “जाओ र सहरको फन्को मार, अनि सशस्त्र मानिसहरू परमप्रभुको सन्दुकअगि जाने छन् ।”
He also said to the people, “Go, and circle the city, armed, preceding the ark of the Lord.”
8 यहोशूले मानिसहरूलाई भनेजस्तै सात जना पुजारीले परमप्रभुको सामु भेडाका सिङहरूको सातवटा तुरही बोके । तिनीहरू अगि बढ्दा तिनीहरूले तुरहीहरू फुके । परमप्रभुको करारको सन्दुक तिनीहरूको पछिपछि थियो ।
And when Joshua had finished his words, and the seven priests sounded the seven trumpets before the ark of the covenant of the Lord,
9 सशस्त्र मानिसहरू पुजारीहरूको अगिअगि हिँडे र तिनीहरूले तिनीहरूका तुरहीहरू फुके, तर पछाडिका सुरक्षाकर्मीहरू सन्दुकको पछिपछि हिँडे र पुजारीहरूले तिनीहरूको तुरही निरन्तर रूपमा फुकिरहे ।
and all the armed soldiers went ahead, the remainder of the common people followed the ark, and the sound of the trumpets grew louder everywhere.
10 तर यहोशूले यसो भन्दै मानिसहरूलाई आज्ञा दिए, “नकराओ । मैले कराउनू नभनेसम्म तिमीहरूको मुखबाट कुनै आवाज ननिस्कोस् । त्यसपछि मात्र कराओ ।”
But Joshua had instructed the people, saying, “You shall not cry out, nor shall your voice be heard, and no word at all shall proceed from your mouth, until the day arrives on which I will say to you, ‘Cry out, and shout.’”
11 त्यसैले तिनले परमप्रभुको सन्दुकलाई त्यस दिन सहरको वरिपरि एक पटक जान लगाए । अनि तिनीहरू छाउनी प्रवेश गरे र राति छाउनीमा नै बसे ।
Thus, the ark of the Lord circled the city once each day, and returning to the camp, it remained there.
12 यहोशू बिहान सबेरै उठे र पुजारीहरूले परमप्रभुको सन्दुक बोके ।
And so, with Joshua, arising in the night, the priests took the ark of the Lord,
13 परमप्रभुको सन्दुकअगि भेडाको सिङको सातवटा तुरही बोक्ने सात जना पुजारी लगातार हिँडिरहे र तुरही फुकिरहे । सशस्त्र सिपाहीहरू तिनीहरूको अगि हिँडिरहेका थिए । तर पछिल्तिरका सुरक्षाकर्मीहरू परमप्रभुको सन्दुकको पछिपछि हिँडे । त्यसपछि तुरही लगातार बजाइयो ।
and seven of them took the seven trumpets, which are used in the jubilee, and they preceded the ark of the Lord, walking and sounding the trumpets. And the armed men went before them, and the remainder of the common people followed the ark, and they were blaring the trumpets.
14 तिनीहरूले दोस्रो दिन पनि सहरलाई एक फेरो लगाए र बिहानै छाउनीमा फर्के । तिनीहरूले छ दिनसम्म यसै गरे ।
And they circled the city on the second day, once, and they returned to the camp. They did so for six days.
15 सातौँ दिनमा तिनीहरू बिहान सबेरै उठे र तिनीहरूले त्यस दिन पनि सहरको फेरो मारे । त्यस दिन तिनीहरूले सहर वरिपरि सात फन्को मारे ।
Then, on the seventh day, rising at first light, they circled the city, just as had been ordered, seven times.
16 जब सातौँ दिनमा पुजारीहरूले तुरही फुके यहोशूले मानिसहरूलाई आज्ञा दिए, “कराओ! किनभने परमप्रभुले यो सहर तिमीहरूलाई दिनुभएको छ ।
And at the seventh circling, when the priests sounded the trumpets, Joshua said to all of Israel: “Shout! For the Lord has delivered the city to you.
17 यो सहर र यसमा भएका सबै थोक विनाशको निम्ति परमप्रभुको लागि अलग गरिएको छ । राहाब र तिनको घरमा तिनीसँग भएकाहरू मात्र बाँच्ने छन्, किनभने तिनले हामीले पठाएका मानिसहरूलाई लुकाएकी थिइन् ।
And let this city be anathema, with all the things that are within it, before the Lord. May only Rahab the harlot live, with all who are with her in the house. For she hid the messengers whom we sent.
18 तर तिमीहरूचाहिँ विनाशको निम्ति अलग गरिएका थोकहरू लिने कुरामा सावधान होओ, ताकि तिमीहरूले तिनीहरूलाई विनाशको निम्ति चिनो लगाओ, र तिमीहरूले तिनीहरूमध्ये कुनै पनि नलेओ । यदि तिमीहरूले यसो गरेनौ भने, तिमीहरूले इस्रएलको छाउनीलाई विनाश गरिनु पर्ने थोकजस्तै तुल्याउने छौ र तिमीहरूले यसमाथि कष्ट ल्याउने छौ ।
But you must be careful that you do not touch any of those things, as you have been instructed, for then you would be guilty of transgression, and all the camp of Israel would be under sin and would be troubled.
19 सबै चाँदी, सुन, र काँसाबाट बनेका थोकहरू अनि फलामलाई परमप्रभुको निम्ति अलग गरिएको छ । ती सबै परमप्रभुको घरमा जानुपर्छ ।”
But whatever gold and silver there will be, and vessels of brass or of iron, let these be consecrated to the Lord and be stored in his treasuries.”
20 जब तिनीहरूले तुरही फुके, मानिसहरू ठुलो स्वरमा कराए अनि पर्खाल जगसम्मै ढल्यो । त्यसैले हरेक मानिस सोझै अगि बढ्यो र सहर कब्जा गरियो ।
Therefore, with all the people shouting, and the trumpets blaring, after the voice and the sound increased in the ears of the multitude, the walls promptly fell to ruin. And each one climbed up at the place which was opposite where he was. And they seized the city.
21 तिनीहरूले सहरमा भएका पुरुष र महिला, जवान र वृद्ध, गोरु, भेडा र गधाहरूलाई तरवारले विनाश पारे ।
And they put to death all who were in it, from man even to woman, from infant even to elder. Likewise, the oxen and sheep and donkeys, they struck down with the edge of the sword.
22 त्यसपछि भूमिको भेद लिने दुई जना मानिसलाई भने, “ती वेश्याको घरभित्र जाओ । ती महिला र तिनीसँग भएका सबैलाई तिमीहरूले शपथ खाएबमोजिम बाहिर ल्याओ ।”
But Joshua said to the two men who had been sent to explore, “Enter the house of the harlot woman, and bring her out, and all the things that are hers, just as you assured her by oath.”
23 त्यसैले त्यो भूमिको भेद लिने जवानहरू गए र राहाबलाई बाहिर ल्याए । तिनीहरूले तिनका बुबा, आमा, दाजुभाइहरू र तिनीसँग भएका सबै नातेदारलाई ल्याए । तिनीहरूले उनीहरूलाई इस्राएलको छाउनी भएको ठाउँमा ल्याए ।
And the youths entered, and they led out Rahab, and her parents, also her brothers, and all her goods and kindred, and they caused them to dwell outside the camp.
24 तिनीहरूले सहर र यसमा भएका सबै थोकलाई जलाए । चाँदी, सुन, काँसामा भाँडाहरू र फलामलाई मात्र परमप्रभुको घरमा राखियो ।
Then they set fire to the city and all the things that were within it, except the gold and silver, and the vessels of brass or of iron, which they consecrated into the treasury of the Lord.
25 तर यहोशूले राहाब वेश्या, उनको बुबाको घराना र तिनीसँग भएका सबैलाई जीवितै राखे । उनी आजसम्म पनि इस्राएलमा नै बस्छिन्, किनभने उनले यहोशूले यरीहोको जासुस गर्न पठाएका मानिसहरूलाई लुकाइन् ।
Yet truly, Joshua caused Rahab the harlot, and her father’s household, and all she had, to survive. And they lived in the midst of Israel, even to the present day. For she hid the messengers, whom he had sent to explore Jericho. At that time, Joshua made an invocation, saying:
26 त्यसपछि यहोशूले तिनीहरूलाई त्यस बेला शपथ खान लगाएर यसो भन्दै आज्ञा दिए, “यो यरीहो सहरको पुनर्निर्माण गर्ने मानिस श्रापित होस् । त्यसको जेठो छोरोको मूल्यमा जग बसालिने छ, र त्यसको कान्छो छोरोको मूल्यमा यसका प्रवेशद्वारहरू खडा गरिने छ ।”
“Cursed before the Lord is the man who will raise up and rebuild the city of Jericho! With his firstborn, may he lay its foundation, and with the last of his children, may he set up its gates.”
27 परमप्रभु यहोशूसँग हुनुहुन्थ्यो, र तिनको कीर्ति सारा मुलुकभरि फैलियो ।
And so the Lord was with Joshua, and his name was made known throughout all the land.
