< गन्ती 16 >

1 लेवीका पनाति, कहातका नाति, यिसहारका छोरा कोरहसाथै रूबेनका कुलका एलीआबका छोराहरू दातान र अबीराम अनि पेलेथका छोराले केही मानिसहरू भेला गरे ।
Now Korah, the son of Izhar, the son of Kohath, the son of Levi, with Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, and On, the son of Peleth, sons of Reuben, took men;
2 तिनीहरू, इस्राएलका मानिसहरूका अन्य मानिसहरूसँगै दुई सय पचास समुदायका अगुवाहरू जो नाम चलेका सदस्यहरू थिए, मोशाको विरुद्धा खडा भए ।
and they rose up in face of Moses, with certain of the children of Israel, two hundred and fifty men; they were princes of the congregation, the elect men of the assembly, men of renown;
3 तिनीहरू मोशा र हारूनको सामना गर्न आफै भेला भए । तिनीहरूले उनीहरूलाई भने, “तपाईंहरूले अति गर्नुभयो! सबै समुदाय, तिनीहरूमध्ये हरेकलाई नै अलग गरिएको छ र परमप्रभु तिनीहरूसँग छन् । किन आफैलाई परमप्रभुको समुदायभन्दा माथि उठाउनुहुन्छ?”
and they assembled themselves together against Moses and against Aaron, and said unto them: 'Ye take too much upon you, seeing all the congregation are holy, every one of them, and the LORD is among them; wherefore then lift ye up yourselves above the assembly of the LORD?'
4 जब मोशाले त्यो सुने, तिनी घोप्टो परे ।
And when Moses heard it, he fell upon his face.
5 तिनले कोरह र उनका साथमा भएकाहरूलाई भने, “को उहाँका हुन् र कसलाई उहाँको निम्ति अलग गरिएको छ भनी परमप्रभुले बिहान देखाउनुहुने छ । त्यस व्‍यक्‍तिलाई उहाँले उहाँको नजिक ल्याउनुहुने छ । उहाँले चुन्‍नुभएकोलाई आफैले आफ्नो नजिक ल्याउनुहुने छ ।
And he spoke unto Korah and unto all his company, saying: 'In the morning the LORD will show who are His, and who is holy, and will cause him to come near unto Him; even him whom He may choose will He cause to come near unto Him.
6 कोरह र तिम्रा सबै समूहले यो गर । धुपौराहरू लेओ ।
This do: take you censors, Korah, and all his company;
7 भोलि त्यसमा परमप्रभुको सामु धूप र आगो राख । परमप्रभुले चुन्‍नुहुने मानिसलाई उहाँको निम्ति अलग गरिनेछ । तिमी लेवीका सन्तानहरू अति धेरै भएका छौ ।”
and put fire therein, and put incense upon them before the LORD to-morrow; and it shall be that the man whom the LORD doth choose, he shall be holy; ye take too much upon you, ye sons of Levi.'
8 फेरि मोशाले कोरहलाई भने, “सुन, तिमी लेवीका सन्तानहरूः
And Moses said unto Korah: 'Hear now, ye sons of Levi:
9 के परमप्रभुको पवित्र वासस्थानमा काम गर्न र समुदायको सेवा गर्न तिनीहरूको सामु खडा हुन इस्राएलको समुदायबाट तिमीहरूलाई छुट्ट्याएको तिमीहरूको निम्ति सानो कुरा हो?
is it but a small thing unto you, that the God of Israel hath separated you from the congregation of Israel, to bring you near to Himself, to do the service of the tabernacle of the LORD, and to stand before the congregation to minister unto them;
10 उहाँले तिमीहरू र तिमीहरूका सबै दाजुभाइ, लेवीका सन्तानहरूलाई तिमीहरूसँगै नजिक ल्याउनुभएको छ, अझै तिमीहरूले पुजारी पद पनि खोजिरहेका छौ!
and that He hath brought thee near, and all thy brethren the sons of Levi with thee? and will ye seek the priesthood also?
11 यसैले तिमी र तिमीहरूका सबै समूह सँगसँगै भेला भएका छौ । त्यसैले तिमीहरूले किन हारूनको बारेमा गनगन गरिरहेका छौ, जसले परमप्रभुको आज्ञा पालन गर्छन्?
Therefore thou and all thy company that are gathered together against the LORD —; and as to Aaron, what is he that ye murmur against him?'
12 त्यसपछि मोशाले दातान र अबीराम, एलीआबका छोराहरूलाई बोलाए । तर तिनीहरूले भने, “हामी आउँदैनौँ ।
And Moses sent to call Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab; and they said: 'We will not come up;
13 के हामीलाई दूध र मह बग्‍ने मुलुकबाट यो मरुभूमिमा मार्नलाई ल्याउनु मामुलि कुरा हो? अब तपाईं आफै हाम्रो शासक हुन चाहन्छ!
is it a small thing that thou hast brought us up out of a land flowing with milk and honey, to kill us in the wilderness, but thou must needs make thyself also a prince over us?
14 यसको अतिरिक्‍त, तपाईंले हामीलाई दूध र मह बग्‍ने मुलुकमा ल्याउनुभएको छैन अथवा हामीलाई खेत र दाखबारीहरू उत्तराधिकारको रूपमा दिनुभएको छैन । के अब हामीलाई खोक्रो प्रतिज्ञाले अन्धा बनाउन चाहनुहुन्छ? हामी तपाईंकहाँ आउँदैनौँ ।”
Moreover thou hast not brought us into a land flowing with milk and honey, nor given us inheritance of fields and vineyards; wilt thou put out the eyes of these men? we will not come up.'
15 मोशा साह्रै रिसाए र परमप्रभुलाई भने, “तिनीहरूको भेटीको कदर नगर्नुहोस् । मैले तिनीहरूबाट एउटा गधा पनि लिएको छैनँ, र मैले तिनीहरू कसैलाई पनि हानि पुर्‍याएको छैनँ ।
And Moses was very wroth, and said unto the LORD: 'Respect not Thou their offering; I have not taken one ass from them, neither have I hurt one of them.'
16 मोशाले कोरहलाई भने, “भोलि तिमी र तिम्रा सबै दल अर्थात् तिमी, तिनीहरू र हारून परमप्रभुको सामु जानुपर्छ । तिमीहरू हरेकले आ-आफ्ना धुपौरा लिनुपर्छ र यसमा धूप राख्‍नुपर्छ ।
And Moses said unto Korah: 'Be thou and all thy congregation before the LORD, thou, and they, and Aaron, to-morrow;
17 अनि हरेकले आ-आफ्ना दुई सय पचासवटा धुपौरा परमप्रभुको सामु ल्याउनुपर्छ । तिमी र हारूनले पनि आ-आफ्ना धुपौरा ल्याउनुपर्छ ।”
and take ye every man his fire-pan, and put incense upon them, and bring ye before the LORD every man his fire-pan, two hundred and fifty fire-pans; thou also, and Aaron, each his fire-pan.'
18 यसैले हरेकले आ-आफ्ना धुपौरा लिए, यसमा आगो राखे, यसमा धूप राखे र मोशा र हारूनसँगै भेट हुने पालको प्रवेश-द्वारमा खडा भए ।
And they took every man his fire-pan, and put fire in them, and laid incense thereon, and stood at the door of the tent of meeting with Moses and Aaron.
19 कोरहले सारा समुदायलाई मोशा र हारूनको विरुद्धमा भेट हुने पालको प्रवेश-द्वारमा भेला पारे र परमप्रभुको महिमा सारा समुदायकहाँ देखा पर्‍यो ।
And Korah assembled all the congregation against them unto the door of the tent of meeting; and the glory of the LORD appeared unto all the congregation.
20 परमप्रभु मोशा र हारूनसँग बोल्नुभयो,
And the LORD spoke unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying:
21 “यस समुदायबाट अलग होओ, ताकि म तिनीहरूलाई तत्कालै विनाश गर्न सकौँ ।”
'Separate yourselves from among this congregation, that I may consume them in a moment.'
22 मोशा र हारून घोप्‍टो परे र भने, “हे परमेश्‍वर, सारा मानव-जातिको आत्माका परमेश्‍वर, एक जनाले पाप गर्दा, के तपाईं सबै समुदायसँग रिसाउनुहुन्छ?”
And they fell upon their faces, and said: 'O God, the God of the spirits of all flesh, shall one man sin, and wilt Thou be wroth with all the congregation?'
23 परमप्रभुले मोशालाई जवाफ दिनुभयो,
And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying:
24 “समुदायलाई भन् । 'कोरह, दातान र अबीरामका पालहरूबाट पर जाओ' भन् ।”
'Speak unto the congregation, saying: Get you up from about the dwelling of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram.'
25 अनि मोशा खडा भए र दातान र अबीरामको पालमा गए; इस्राएलका धर्म-गुरुहरू तिनको पछि-पछि गए ।
And Moses rose up and went unto Dathan and Abiram; and the elders of Israel followed him.
26 तिनले समुदायलाई यसो भने, “यी दुष्‍टहरूका पालहरूबाट हट र तिनीहरूको कुनै पनि कुरा नछोओ नत्रता तिनीहरूका सबै पापद्वारा नष्‍ट हुनेछौ ।”
And he spoke unto the congregation, saying: 'Depart, I pray you, from the tents of these wicked men, and touch nothing of theirs, lest ye be swept away in all their sins.'
27 यसैले कोरह, दातान र अबीरामका पाल वरिपरिका समुदायले तिनीहरूलाई छोडे । दातान र अबीराम तिनीहरूका पत्‍नीहरू, छोराहरू र स-साना बालबालिकाहरूसहित तिनीहरूका पालको प्रवेश-द्वारमा खडा भए ।
So they got them up from the dwelling of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram, on every side; and Dathan and Abiram came out, and stood at the door of their tents, with their wives, and their sons, and their little ones.
28 मोशाले भने, “यसैद्वारा यी सबै थोक गर्न मलाई परमप्रभुले पठाउनुभएको छ भन्‍ने तिमीहरूले जान्‍नेछौ, किनभने मैले तिनीहरू मेरो आफ्नै इच्छामा गरेको छैन ।
And Moses said: 'Hereby ye shall know that the LORD hath sent me to do all these works, and that I have not done them of mine own mind.
29 यदि यी मानिसहरू सामान्य रूपमा हुने स्वाभाविक मृत्युद्वारा मर्छन् भने, मलाई परमप्रभुले पठाउनुभएको होइन ।
If these men die the common death of all men, and be visited after the visitation of all men, then the LORD hath not sent Me.
30 तर यदि परमप्रभुले कुनै नयाँ कुरा सृजना गर्नुहुन्छ, धर्तीले आफ्नो मुख उघार्छ र तिनीहरूसाथै तिनीहरूका सबै थोकलाई निल्छ, र तिनीहरू जिउँदै चिहानभित्र जान्छन् भने, यी मानिसहरूले परमप्रभुलाई तिरस्कार गरेका छन् भनी तिमीहरूले बुझ्नुपर्छ ।” (Sheol h7585)
But if the LORD make a new thing, and the ground open her mouth, and swallow them up, with all that appertain unto them, and they go down alive into the pit, then ye shall understand that these men have despised the LORD.' (Sheol h7585)
31 मोशाले यी कुराहरू भनी सिद्ध्याउने बित्तिकै ती मानिसहरूमुनिको जमिन फाट्यो ।
And it came to pass, as he made an end of speaking all these words, that the ground did cleave asunder that was under them.
32 धर्तीले यसको मुख उघार्‍यो अनि तिनीहरूका परिवारहरू र कोरहसँग भएका सबै मानिसहरूसाथै तिनीहरूका सबै थोकलाई निल्यो ।
And the earth opened her mouth and swallowed them up, and their households, and all the men that appertained unto Korah, and all their goods.
33 यसैले तिनीहरू र तिनीहरूसँग भएका सबै थोक जिउँदै चिहानभित्र लगिए । धर्ती तिनीहरूमाथि बन्द भयो, र तिनीहरू समुदायबाट नष्‍ट भए । (Sheol h7585)
So they, and all that appertained to them, went down alive into the pit; and the earth closed upon them, and they perished from among the assembly. (Sheol h7585)
34 तिनीहरूका वरिपरि भएका इस्राएलीहरू चिच्‍च्याउँदै भागे । तिनीहरू, “धर्तीले हामीलाई पनि निल्ने भो!” भन्‍दै चिच्‍च्याए ।
And all Israel that were round about them fled at the cry of them; for they said: 'Lest the earth swallow us up.'
35 अनि परमप्रभुबाट आगोको ज्वाला निस्क्यो र धूप बालेका २५० जना मानिसलाई नष्‍ट गर्‍यो ।
And fire came forth from the LORD, and devoured the two hundred and fifty men that offered the incense.
36 फेरि परमप्रभु मोशासँग बोल्नुभयो,
And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying:
37 “पुजारी हारूनका छोरा एलाजारलाई भन् र त्यसले धुपौराहरूलाई आगोबाट निकालोस्, किनभने धुपौराहरू मेरा निम्ति अलग गरिएका छन् । त्यसले बलिरहेका आगोका फिलुङ्गाहरूलाई छरोस् ।
'Speak unto Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest, that he take up the fire-pans out of the burning, and scatter thou the fire yonder; for they are become holy;
38 आफ्नो पापको कारण जीवन गुमाउनेहरूको धुपौराहरू ले । तिनीहरूलाई पिटेर वेदीलाई मोहर्ने पाताहरू बनाइयोस् । ती मानिसहरूले तिनीहरूलाई मेरो निम्ति अर्पण गरे । यसैले तिनीहरूलाई मेरो निम्ति अलग गर । तिनीहरू इस्राएलका मानिसहरूका निम्ति मेरो उपस्थितिको चिन्ह हुने छन् ।
even the fire-pans of these men who have sinned at the cost of their lives, and let them be made beaten plates for a covering of the altar — for they are become holy, because they were offered before the LORD — that they may be a sign unto the children of Israel.'
39 पुजारी एलाजारले आगोले नष्‍ट भएका मानिसहरूले प्रयोग गरेका काँसाका धुपौराहरू लिए र
And Eleazar the priest took the brazen fire-pans, which they that were burnt had offered; and they beat them out for a covering of the altar,
40 इस्राएलका मानिसहरूलाई याद दिलाउने कुरा हुनलाई तिनीहरूलाई पिटेर वेदी मोहर्ने बनाइयो, परमप्रभुको सामु धूप बाल्न ताकि हारूनका सन्तान बाहिर कोही पनि नआओस् र परमप्रभुले मोशालाई आज्ञा गर्नुभएझैँ तिनीहरू कोरह र तिनका समूहजस्ता नहोऊन् ।
to be a memorial unto the children of Israel, to the end that no common man, that is not of the seed of Aaron, draw near to burn incense before the LORD; that he fare not as Korah, and as his company; as the LORD spoke unto him by the hand of Moses.
41 तर अर्को बिहान इस्राएलका सबै मानिसको समुदायले मोशा र हारून विरुद्ध गनगन गरे । तिनीहरूले भने, “तिमीहरूले परमप्रभुका मानिसहरूलाई मारेका छौ ।”
But on the morrow all the congregation of the children of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron, saying: 'Ye have killed the people of the LORD.'
42 समुदाय मोशा र हारूनको विरुद्ध भेला हुँदा तिनीहरूले भेट हुने पालतिर हेरे अनि हेर! यसलाई बादलले ढाकिरहेको थियो । परमप्रभुका महिमा देखा पर्‍यो,
And it came to pass, when the congregation was assembled against Moses and against Aaron, that they looked toward the tent of meeting; and, behold, the cloud covered it, and the glory of the LORD appeared.
43 र मोशा र हारून भेट हुने पालको अघि आए ।
And Moses and Aaron came to the front of the tent of meeting.
44 अनि परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्‍नुभयो,
And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying:
45 “यो समुदायबाट गइहाल् ताकि मैले तिनीहरूलाई अहिलै नष्‍ट पार्न सकौँ ।” अनि मोशा र हारून जमिनमा घोप्टो परे ।
'Get you up from among this congregation, that I may consume them in a moment.' And they fell upon their faces.
46 मोशाले हारूनलाई भने, “धुपौरा लिनुहोस्, वेदीबाट यसमा आगो हाल्नुहोस्, यसमा धूप हाल्नुहोस्, यसलाई समुदायकहाँ छिटो लानुहोस् र तिनीहरूका निम्ति प्रायश्‍चित्त गर्नुहोस्, किनभने परमप्रभुको क्रोध आइरहेको छ । विपत्ति सुरु भएको छ ।
And Moses said unto Aaron: 'Take thy fire-pan, and put fire therein from off the altar, and lay incense thereon, and carry it quickly unto the congregation, and make atonement for them; for there is wrath gone out from the LORD: the plague is begun.'
47 यसैले हारूले मोशाले अह्राएबमोजिम गरे । तिनी समुदायको बिचमा दौडेर गए । विपत्ति मानिसहरूबिच फैलिन थालेको थियो, यसैले तिनले धूप राखे र मानिसहरूका निम्ति प्रायश्‍चित्त गरे ।
And Aaron took as Moses spoke, and ran into the midst of the assembly; and, behold, the plague was begun among the people; and he put on the incense, and made atonement for the people.
48 हारून जीवित र मृतकहरूका बिचमा खडा भए । यसरी विपत्ति रोकियो ।
And he stood between the dead and the living; and the plague was stayed.
49 कोरहको विषयमा पनि मरेका अतिरिक्‍त विपत्तिमा मर्नेहरूको सङ्ख्या १४,७०० थियो ।
Now they that died by the plague were fourteen thousand and seven hundred, besides them that died about the matter of Korah.
50 हारून भेट हुने पालको प्रवेश-द्वारमा मोशाकहाँ फर्केर आए र विपत्ति रोकियो ।
And Aaron returned unto Moses unto the door of the tent of meeting, and the plague was stayed.
