< न्यायकर्ताहरू 10 >
1 अबीमेलेकपछि, एफ्राइमको पहाडी देशको शामीरमा बसोबास गर्ने इस्साखारका एक जना मानिस, दोदोका नाति पुवाका छोरा तोला इस्राएललाई छुटकारा दिनको निम्ति खडा भए ।
After Abimelech, Tola the son of Puah, the son of Dodo, a man of Issachar, arose to save Israel. He lived in Shamir in the hill country of Ephraim.
2 तिनले तेईस वर्षसम्म इस्राएलको न्याय गरे । तिनी मरे र तिनलाई शामीरमा दफन गरियो ।
He judged Israel twenty-three years, and died, and was buried in Shamir.
3 तिनी पछि गिलादी याईर आए । तिनले बाईस वर्षसम्म इस्राएलको न्याय गरे ।
After him Jair, the Gileadite, arose. He judged Israel twenty-two years.
4 तिनका तिस जना छोराहरू थिए जो तिसवटा गधाहरूमा सवार हुन्थे र तिनीहरूका तिसवटा सहरहरू थिए, जसलाई आजको दिनसम्म हब्बात याईर भनिन्छ, जुन गिलाद देशमा पर्छ ।
He had thirty sons who rode on thirty donkey colts. They had thirty cities, which are called Havvoth Jair to this day, which are in the land of Gilead.
5 याईर मरे र उनलाई कामोनमा दफन गरियो ।
Jair died, and was buried in Kamon.
6 इस्राएलका मानिसहरूले परमप्रभुको दृष्टिमा जे खराब थियो त्यही गरेका कुरामाथि तिनीहरूले झमै थप गरे र बाल देवताहरू र अश्तोरेत देवीहरू, अरामका देवताहरू, सीदोनका देवताहरू, मोआबका देवताहरू, अम्मोनका मानिसहरूका देवताहरू र पलिश्तीहरूका देवीहरूको पुजा गरे । तिनीहरूले परमप्रभुलाई त्यागे र फेरि उहाँको आराधना गरेनन् ।
The children of Israel again did that which was evil in the LORD’s sight, and served the Baals, the Ashtaroth, the gods of Syria, the gods of Sidon, the gods of Moab, the gods of the children of Ammon, and the gods of the Philistines. They abandoned the LORD, and didn’t serve him.
7 इस्राएलप्रति परमप्रभु रिसले क्रोधित हुनुभयो, र उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई पलिश्तीहरूका हातमा र अम्मोनीहरूका हातमा बेचिदिनुभयो ।
The LORD’s anger burned against Israel, and he sold them into the hand of the Philistines and into the hand of the children of Ammon.
8 तिनीहरूले त्यस वर्ष इस्राएलका मानिसहरूलाई थिचोमिचो गरे अत्याचार गरे, र अठार वर्षसम्म तिनीहरूले यर्दनपारी एमोरीहरूको देश अर्थात् गिलादमा भएका सबै इस्राएलीमाथि अत्याचार गरे ।
They troubled and oppressed the children of Israel that year. For eighteen years they oppressed all the children of Israel that were beyond the Jordan in the land of the Amorites, which is in Gilead.
9 त्यसपछि अम्मोनीहरू यहूदाको विरुद्धमा, बेन्यामीनका विरुद्धमा, र एफ्राइमका घरानाको विरुद्ध युद्ध लड्नको निम्ति यर्दनपारि गए, ताकि इस्राएल धेरै नै व्याकुल भए ।
The children of Ammon passed over the Jordan to fight also against Judah, and against Benjamin, and against the house of Ephraim, so that Israel was very distressed.
10 तब इस्राएलका मानिसहरूले परमप्रभुलाई यसो भनेर पुकारा गरे, “हामीले तपाईंको विरुद्धमा पाप गरेका छौं, किनभने हामीले आफ्ना परमेश्वरलाई त्यागेका छौ र बाल देवताहरूको पुजा गरेका छौं ।”
The children of Israel cried to the LORD, saying, “We have sinned against you, even because we have forsaken our God, and have served the Baals.”
11 परमप्रभुले इस्राएलका मानिसहरूलाई भन्नुभयो, “के मैले तिमीहरूलाई मिश्रीहरू, एमोरीहरू, अम्मोनीहरू, पलिश्तीहरू,
The LORD said to the children of Israel, “Didn’t I save you from the Egyptians, and from the Amorites, from the children of Ammon, and from the Philistines?
12 र सीदोनीहरूबाट समत छुटकारा दिइनँ र? अमालेकीहरू र मिद्दानीहरूले तिमीहरूलाई अत्याचार गरे । तिमीहरूले मलाई पुकार्यौ, र मैले तिमीहरूलाई तिनीहरूका शक्तिबाट छुटाएँ ।
The Sidonians also, and the Amalekites, and the Maonites, oppressed you; and you cried to me, and I saved you out of their hand.
13 तापनि तिमीहरूले मलाई त्याग्यौ र अरू देवताहरूलाई पुज्यौ । यसकारण, मैले तिमीहरूलाई छुटकारा दिने मौकाहरू म अब निरन्तर थपिरहनेछैन ।
Yet you have forsaken me and served other gods. Therefore I will save you no more.
14 जाओ र तिमीहरूले पुजा गरेका देवताहरूलाई नै पुकारा गर । तिमीहरूमाथि समस्या आइपर्दा तिनीहरूले नै तिमीहरूलाई बचाऊन् ।”
Go and cry to the gods which you have chosen. Let them save you in the time of your distress!”
15 इस्राएलका मानिसहरूले परमप्रभुलाई भने, “हामीले पाप गरेका छौं । तपाईंलाई जे असल लाग्छ त्यही हामीलाई गर्नुहोस् । कृपागरी आजको दिन मात्र हामीलाई बचाइदिनुहोस् ।”
The children of Israel said to the LORD, “We have sinned! Do to us whatever seems good to you; only deliver us, please, today.”
16 तिनीहरूले आफ्ना बिचमा भएका विदेशी देवताहरू त्यागे र परमप्रभुको आराधना गरे । तब परमप्रभुले इस्राएलको दुःखलाई अरू बढी सहन सक्नुभएन ।
They put away the foreign gods from among them and served the LORD; and his soul was grieved for the misery of Israel.
17 अनि अम्मोनीहरू एकसाथ भेला भए र गिलादमा छाउनी हाले । इस्राएलीहरू एकसाथ भेला भए र मिस्पामा आफ्नो छाउनी हाले ।
Then the children of Ammon were gathered together and encamped in Gilead. The children of Israel assembled themselves together and encamped in Mizpah.
18 गिलादका मानिसहरूका अगुवाहरूले एक-अर्कामा यसो भने, “अम्मोनीहरूसँग युद्ध लड्न सुरु गर्ने मानिस को हो? ऊ नै गिलादमा बस्ने सबैका अगुवा हुनेछ ।”
The people, the princes of Gilead, said to one another, “Who is the man who will begin to fight against the children of Ammon? He shall be head over all the inhabitants of Gilead.”
