< यहोशू 6 >
1 इस्राएलका फौजका कारण यरीहोतिरका सबै प्रवेशद्वारहरू बन्द थिए । कोही पनि बाहिर आउँदैनथ्यो र भित्र पस्दैनथ्यो ।
(And Jericho shutteth itself up, and is shut up, because of the presence of the sons of Israel — none going out, and none coming in; )
2 परमप्रभुले यहोशूलाई भन्नुभयो, “हेर्, मैले यरीहोलाई यसको राजा र यसका तालिम प्राप्त सिपाहीहरूसहित तेरो हातमा सुम्पेको छु ।
And Jehovah saith unto Joshua, 'See, I have given into thy hand Jericho and its king — mighty ones of valour,
3 तिमीहरूले सहरको फेरो मार्नुपर्छ, लडाइँमा जाने सबै मानिसले सहरलाई एक फेरो मार्नुपर्छ । तिमीहरूले छ दिनसम्म यसै गर्नू ।
and ye have compassed the city — all the men of battle — going round the city once; thus thou dost 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 ।
and seven priests do bear seven trumpets of the jubilee before the ark, and on the seventh day ye compass the city seven times, and the priests blow with 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 it hath been, in the prolongation of the horn of the jubilee, in your hearing the voice of the trumpet, all the people shout — a great shout, and the wall of the city hath fallen under it, and the people have gone up, each over-against him.'
6 अनि नूनका छोरा यहोशूले पुजारीहरूलाई बोलाएर तिनीहरूलाई भने, “करारको सन्दुक बोक, र सात जना पुजारीले परमप्रभुको सन्दुक अगिअगि भेडाका सातवटा सिङका तुरहीहरू बोकून् ।”
And Joshua son of Nun calleth unto the priests, and saith unto them, 'Bear ye the ark of the covenant, and seven priests do bear seven trumpets of the jubilee before the ark of Jehovah;'
7 तिनले मानिसहरूलाई भने, “जाओ र सहरको फन्को मार, अनि सशस्त्र मानिसहरू परमप्रभुको सन्दुकअगि जाने छन् ।”
and He said unto the people, 'Pass over, and compass the city, and he who is armed doth pass over before the ark of Jehovah.'
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 it cometh to pass, when Joshua speaketh unto the people, that the seven priests bearing seven trumpets of the jubilee before Jehovah have passed over and blown with the trumpets, and the ark of the covenant of Jehovah is going after them;
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 he who is armed is going before the priests blowing the trumpets, and he who is gathering up is going after the ark, going on and blowing with the trumpets;
10 तर यहोशूले यसो भन्दै मानिसहरूलाई आज्ञा दिए, “नकराओ । मैले कराउनू नभनेसम्म तिमीहरूको मुखबाट कुनै आवाज ननिस्कोस् । त्यसपछि मात्र कराओ ।”
and the people hath Joshua commanded, saying, 'Ye do not shout, nor cause your voice to be heard, nor doth there go out from your mouth a word, till the day of my saying unto you, Shout ye — then ye have shouted.'
11 त्यसैले तिनले परमप्रभुको सन्दुकलाई त्यस दिन सहरको वरिपरि एक पटक जान लगाए । अनि तिनीहरू छाउनी प्रवेश गरे र राति छाउनीमा नै बसे ।
And the ark of Jehovah doth compass the city, going round once, and they come into the camp, and lodge in the camp.
12 यहोशू बिहान सबेरै उठे र पुजारीहरूले परमप्रभुको सन्दुक बोके ।
And Joshua riseth early in the morning, and the priests bear the ark of Jehovah,
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 priests bearing seven trumpets of the jubilee before the ark of Jehovah are walking, going on, and they have blown with the trumpets — and he who is armed is going before them, and he who is gathering up is going behind the ark of Jehovah — going on and blowing with the trumpets.
14 तिनीहरूले दोस्रो दिन पनि सहरलाई एक फेरो लगाए र बिहानै छाउनीमा फर्के । तिनीहरूले छ दिनसम्म यसै गरे ।
And they compass the city on the second day once, and turn back to the camp; thus they have done 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 ।
And it cometh to pass, on the seventh day, that they rise early, at the ascending of the dawn, and compass the city, according to this manner, seven times; (only, on that day they have compassed the city seven times);
16 जब सातौँ दिनमा पुजारीहरूले तुरही फुके यहोशूले मानिसहरूलाई आज्ञा दिए, “कराओ! किनभने परमप्रभुले यो सहर तिमीहरूलाई दिनुभएको छ ।
and it cometh to pass, at the seventh time, the priests have blown with the trumpets, and Joshua saith unto the people, 'Shout ye, for Jehovah hath given to you the city;
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 the city hath been devoted, it and all that [is] in it, to Jehovah; only Rahab the harlot doth live, she and 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 ।
and surely ye have kept from the devoted thing, lest ye devote [yourselves], and have taken from the devoted thing, and have made the camp of Israel become a devoted thing, and have troubled it;
19 सबै चाँदी, सुन, र काँसाबाट बनेका थोकहरू अनि फलामलाई परमप्रभुको निम्ति अलग गरिएको छ । ती सबै परमप्रभुको घरमा जानुपर्छ ।”
and all the silver and gold, and vessels of brass and iron, holy they [are] to Jehovah; into the treasury of Jehovah they come.'
20 जब तिनीहरूले तुरही फुके, मानिसहरू ठुलो स्वरमा कराए अनि पर्खाल जगसम्मै ढल्यो । त्यसैले हरेक मानिस सोझै अगि बढ्यो र सहर कब्जा गरियो ।
And the people shout, and blow with the trumpets, and it cometh to pass when the people hear the voice of the trumpet, that the people shout — a great shout, and the wall falleth under it, and the people goeth up into the city, each over-against him, and they capture the city;
21 तिनीहरूले सहरमा भएका पुरुष र महिला, जवान र वृद्ध, गोरु, भेडा र गधाहरूलाई तरवारले विनाश पारे ।
and they devote all that [is] in the city, from man even unto woman, from young even unto aged, even unto ox, and sheep, and ass, by the mouth 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 ।”
And to the two men who are spying the land Joshua said, 'Go into the house of the woman, the harlot, and bring out thence the woman, and all whom she hath, as ye have sworn to her.'
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 young man, the spies, go in and bring out Rahab, and her father, and her mother, and her brethren, and all whom she hath; yea, all her families they have brought out, and place them at the outside of the camp of Israel.
24 तिनीहरूले सहर र यसमा भएका सबै थोकलाई जलाए । चाँदी, सुन, काँसामा भाँडाहरू र फलामलाई मात्र परमप्रभुको घरमा राखियो ।
And the city they have burnt with fire, and all that [is] in it; only, the silver and the gold, and the vessels of brass, and of iron, they have given [to] the treasury of the house of Jehovah;
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 ।
and Rahab the harlot, and the house of her father, and all whom she hath, hath Joshua kept alive; and she dwelleth in the midst of Israel unto this day, for she hid the messengers whom Joshua sent to spy out Jericho.
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 ।”
And Joshua adjureth [them] at that time, saying, 'Cursed [is] the man before Jehovah who raiseth up and hath built this city, [even] Jericho; in his first-born he doth lay its foundation, and in his youngest he doth set up its doors;'
27 परमप्रभु यहोशूसँग हुनुहुन्थ्यो, र तिनको कीर्ति सारा मुलुकभरि फैलियो ।
and Jehovah is with Joshua, and his fame is in all the land.
