< 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 some men.
2 तिनीहरू, इस्राएलका मानिसहरूका अन्य मानिसहरूसँगै दुई सय पचास समुदायका अगुवाहरू जो नाम चलेका सदस्यहरू थिए, मोशाको विरुद्धा खडा भए ।
They rose up before Moses, with some of the children of Israel, two hundred fifty princes of the congregation, called to 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?”
They assembled themselves together against Moses and against Aaron, and said to them, “You take too much on yourself, since all the congregation are holy, everyone of them, and the LORD is among them! Why do you lift yourselves up above the LORD’s assembly?”
4 जब मोशाले त्यो सुने, तिनी घोप्टो परे ।
When Moses heard it, he fell on 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 ।
He said to Korah and to all his company, “In the morning, the LORD will show who are his, and who is holy, and will cause him to come near to him. Even him whom he shall choose, he will cause to come near to him.
6 कोरह र तिम्रा सबै समूहले यो गर । धुपौराहरू लेओ ।
Do this: have Korah and all his company take censers,
7 भोलि त्यसमा परमप्रभुको सामु धूप र आगो राख । परमप्रभुले चुन्नुहुने मानिसलाई उहाँको निम्ति अलग गरिनेछ । तिमी लेवीका सन्तानहरू अति धेरै भएका छौ ।”
put fire in them, and put incense on them before the LORD tomorrow. It shall be that the man whom the LORD chooses, he shall be holy. You have gone too far, you sons of Levi!”
8 फेरि मोशाले कोरहलाई भने, “सुन, तिमी लेवीका सन्तानहरूः
Moses said to Korah, “Hear now, you 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 a small thing to you that the God of Israel has separated you from the congregation of Israel, to bring you near to himself, to do the service of the LORD’s tabernacle, and to stand before the congregation to minister to them;
10 उहाँले तिमीहरू र तिमीहरूका सबै दाजुभाइ, लेवीका सन्तानहरूलाई तिमीहरूसँगै नजिक ल्याउनुभएको छ, अझै तिमीहरूले पुजारी पद पनि खोजिरहेका छौ!
and that he has brought you near, and all your brothers the sons of Levi with you? Do you 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 you and all your company have gathered together against the LORD! What is Aaron that you complain against him?”
12 त्यसपछि मोशाले दातान र अबीराम, एलीआबका छोराहरूलाई बोलाए । तर तिनीहरूले भने, “हामी आउँदैनौँ ।
Moses sent to call Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab; and they said, “We won’t 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 you have brought us up out of a land flowing with milk and honey, to kill us in the wilderness, but you must also make yourself 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 you haven’t brought us into a land flowing with milk and honey, nor given us inheritance of fields and vineyards. Will you put out the eyes of these men? We won’t 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 ।
Moses was very angry, and said to the LORD, “Don’t respect their offering. I have not taken one donkey 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 ।
Moses said to Korah, “You and all your company go before the LORD, you, and they, and Aaron, tomorrow.
17 अनि हरेकले आ-आफ्ना दुई सय पचासवटा धुपौरा परमप्रभुको सामु ल्याउनुपर्छ । तिमी र हारूनले पनि आ-आफ्ना धुपौरा ल्याउनुपर्छ ।”
Each man take his censer and put incense on it, and each man bring before the LORD his censer, two hundred fifty censers; you also, and Aaron, each with his censer.”
18 यसैले हरेकले आ-आफ्ना धुपौरा लिए, यसमा आगो राखे, यसमा धूप राखे र मोशा र हारूनसँगै भेट हुने पालको प्रवेश-द्वारमा खडा भए ।
They each took his censer, and put fire in it, and laid incense on it, 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 ।
Korah assembled all the congregation opposite them to the door of the Tent of Meeting. The LORD’s glory appeared to all the congregation.
20 परमप्रभु मोशा र हारूनसँग बोल्नुभयो,
The LORD spoke to Moses and to 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?”
They fell on their faces, and said, “God, the God of the spirits of all flesh, shall one man sin, and will you be angry with all the congregation?”
23 परमप्रभुले मोशालाई जवाफ दिनुभयो,
The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
24 “समुदायलाई भन् । 'कोरह, दातान र अबीरामका पालहरूबाट पर जाओ' भन् ।”
“Speak to the congregation, saying, ‘Get away from around the tent of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram!’”
25 अनि मोशा खडा भए र दातान र अबीरामको पालमा गए; इस्राएलका धर्म-गुरुहरू तिनको पछि-पछि गए ।
Moses rose up and went to 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 ।”
He spoke to the congregation, saying, “Depart, please, from the tents of these wicked men, and touch nothing of theirs, lest you be consumed 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 went away from the tent of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram, on every side. Dathan and Abiram came out, and stood at the door of their tents with their wives, 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 ।
Moses said, “Hereby you shall know that the LORD has sent me to do all these works; for they are not from my 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, or if they experience what all men experience, then the LORD hasn’t 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 )
But if the LORD makes a new thing, and the ground opens its mouth, and swallows them up with all that belong to them, and they go down alive into Sheol, then you shall understand that these men have despised the LORD.” (Sheol )
31 मोशाले यी कुराहरू भनी सिद्ध्याउने बित्तिकै ती मानिसहरूमुनिको जमिन फाट्यो ।
As he finished speaking all these words, the ground that was under them split apart.
32 धर्तीले यसको मुख उघार्यो अनि तिनीहरूका परिवारहरू र कोरहसँग भएका सबै मानिसहरूसाथै तिनीहरूका सबै थोकलाई निल्यो ।
The earth opened its mouth and swallowed them up with their households, all of Korah’s men, 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 )
So they, and all that belonged to them went down alive into Sheol. The earth closed on them, and they perished from among the assembly. (Sheol )
34 तिनीहरूका वरिपरि भएका इस्राएलीहरू चिच्च्याउँदै भागे । तिनीहरू, “धर्तीले हामीलाई पनि निल्ने भो!” भन्दै चिच्च्याए ।
All Israel that were around them fled at their cry; for they said, “Lest the earth swallow us up!”
35 अनि परमप्रभुबाट आगोको ज्वाला निस्क्यो र धूप बालेका २५० जना मानिसलाई नष्ट गर्यो ।
Fire came out from the LORD, and devoured the two hundred fifty men who offered the incense.
36 फेरि परमप्रभु मोशासँग बोल्नुभयो,
The LORD spoke to 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 to Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest, that he take up the censers out of the burning, and scatter the fire away from the camp; for they are 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 censers of those who sinned against their own lives. Let them be beaten into plates for a covering of the altar, for they offered them before the LORD. Therefore they are holy. They shall be a sign to the children of Israel.”
39 पुजारी एलाजारले आगोले नष्ट भएका मानिसहरूले प्रयोग गरेका काँसाका धुपौराहरू लिए र
Eleazar the priest took the bronze censers which those who were burned 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 to the children of Israel, to the end that no stranger who isn’t of the offspring of Aaron, would come near to burn incense before the LORD, that he not be as Korah and as his company; as the LORD spoke to him by 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 next day all the congregation of the children of Israel complained against Moses and against Aaron, saying, “You have killed the LORD’s people!”
42 समुदाय मोशा र हारूनको विरुद्ध भेला हुँदा तिनीहरूले भेट हुने पालतिर हेरे अनि हेर! यसलाई बादलले ढाकिरहेको थियो । परमप्रभुका महिमा देखा पर्यो,
When the congregation was assembled against Moses and against Aaron, they looked toward the Tent of Meeting. Behold, the cloud covered it, and the LORD’s glory appeared.
43 र मोशा र हारून भेट हुने पालको अघि आए ।
Moses and Aaron came to the front of the Tent of Meeting.
44 अनि परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्नुभयो,
The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
45 “यो समुदायबाट गइहाल् ताकि मैले तिनीहरूलाई अहिलै नष्ट पार्न सकौँ ।” अनि मोशा र हारून जमिनमा घोप्टो परे ।
“Get away from among this congregation, that I may consume them in a moment!” They fell on 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 ।
Moses said to Aaron, “Take your censer, put fire from the altar in it, lay incense on it, carry it quickly to the congregation, and make atonement for them; for wrath has gone out from the LORD! The plague has 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 ।
Aaron did as Moses said, and ran into the middle of the assembly. The plague had already begun among the people. He put on the incense, and made atonement for the people.
48 हारून जीवित र मृतकहरूका बिचमा खडा भए । यसरी विपत्ति रोकियो ।
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 those who died by the plague were fourteen thousand seven hundred, in addition to those who died about the matter of Korah.
50 हारून भेट हुने पालको प्रवेश-द्वारमा मोशाकहाँ फर्केर आए र विपत्ति रोकियो ।
Aaron returned to Moses to the door of the Tent of Meeting, and the plague was stopped.
