गन्ती 21
1 जब नेगेवमा बस्ने आरादका कनानी राजाले इस्राएल अटारीमको बाटो भएर यात्रा गरिरहेको थियो भन्ने सुने, तिनले इस्राएलसँग लडाइँ लडे र केहीलाई बन्दी बनाए ।
And the Canaanite, the king of Arad, who dwelt in the South, heard tell that Israel came by the way of Atharim; and he fought against Israel, and took some of them captive.
2 इस्राएलले परमप्रभुसँग भाकल गरेर भने, “यदि तपाईंले हामीलाई यी मानिसहरूमाथि वजय दिनुभयो भने, हामी तिनीहरूका सहरहरूलाई पूर्ण रूपमा नष्ट पार्ने छौँ ।”
And Israel vowed a vow unto the LORD, and said: 'If Thou wilt indeed deliver this people into my hand, then I will utterly destroy their cities.'
3 परमप्रभुले इस्राएलको आवाज सुन्नुभयो र उहाँले कनानीहरूमाथि विजय दिनुभयो ।
And the LORD hearkened to the voice of Israel, and delivered up the Canaanites; and they utterly destroyed them and their cities; and the name of the place was called Hormah.
4 तिनीहरूले तिनीहरूलाई र तिनीहरूका सहरलाई पूर्ण रूपमा नष्ट गरे । त्यस ठाउँको नाउँ होर्मा राखियो । तिनीहरूले एदोमको भूमिलाई फेरो मारेर नर्कटको समुद्रको बाटो हुँदै होर पर्वतबाट गए । बाटोमा मानिसहरू अति निरुत्साहित भए ।
And they journeyed from mount Hor by the way to the Red Sea, to compass the land of Edom; and the soul of the people became impatient because of the way.
5 मानिसहरू परमेश्वर र मोशा विरुद्ध बोले, “मरुभूमिमा मर्न तपाईंले हामीलाई मिश्रबाट किन ल्याउनुभयो? यहाँ रोटी छैन, पानी पनि छैन अनि यो घृणास्पद खाना हामी घृणा गर्छौं ।”
And the people spoke against God, and against Moses: 'Wherefore have ye brought us up out of Egypt to die in the wilderness? for there is no bread, and there is no water; and our soul loatheth this light bread.'
6 परमप्रभुले मानिसहरू माझ विषालु सर्पहरू पठाइदिनुभयो । सर्पहरूले मानिसहरूलाई डसे, र धेरै मानिसहरू मरे ।
And the LORD sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people; and much people of Israel died.
7 मानिसहरू मोशाकहाँ आएर भने, “हामीले पाप गरेका छौँ, किनभने हामीले परमप्रभु र तपाईंको विरुद्ध बोलेका छौँ । सर्पहरूलाई हामीबाट हटाउनलाई उहाँसँग बिन्ती गर्नुहोस् ।” यसैले मोशाले मानिसहरूका निम्ति प्रार्थना गरे ।
And the people came to Moses, and said: 'We have sinned, because we have spoken against the LORD, and against thee; pray unto the LORD, that He take away the serpents from us.' And Moses prayed for the people.
8 परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्नुभयो, “एउटा सर्प बना र यसलाई खामामा झुण्ड्या । सर्पले डसेकाहरू ज-जसले यसलाई हेर्छन् तिनीहरू सबै बाँच्ने छन् ।”
And the LORD said unto Moses: 'Make thee a fiery serpent, and set it upon a pole; and it shall come to pass, that every one that is bitten, when he seeth it, shall live.'
9 यसैले मोशाले काँसाको एउटा सर्प बनाए र त्यसलाई खामामा झुण्ड्याए । जब सर्पले कसैलाई डस्थ्यो, त्यसले काँसाको सर्पमा हरेमा त्यो बाँच्थ्यो ।
And Moses made a serpent of brass, and set it upon the pole; and it came to pass, that if a serpent had bitten any man, when he looked unto the serpent of brass, he lived.
10 त्यसपछि मानिसहरूले यात्रा गरे र ओबोतमा छाउनी लगाए ।
And the children of Israel journeyed, and pitched in Oboth.
11 तिनीहरू ओबोतबाट गए र मोआबको पूर्वतिर पर्ने इये-अबारीमको मरुभूमिमा छाउनी लगाए ।
And they journeyed from Oboth, and pitched at Ije-abarim, in the wilderness which is in front of Moab, toward the sun-rising.
12 तिनीहरू त्यहाँबाट यात्रा गरे र जेरेदको बेँसीमा छाउनी लगाए ।
From thence they journeyed, and pitched in the valley of Zered.
13 तिनीहरूले त्यहाँबाट यात्रा गरे र अर्नोन खोलाको पारिपट्टि छाउनी लगाए, जुन मरुभूमिमा छ र एमोरीहरूको सिमानसम्म नै फैलिएको छ । अर्नोन खोलाले मोआब र एमोरीहरूबिच सिमानाको काम गर्छ ।
From thence they journeyed, and pitched on the other side of the Arnon, which is in the wilderness, that cometh out of the border of the Amorites. — For Arnon is the border of Moab, between Moab and the Amorites;
14 त्यसैले परमप्रभुको युद्धको पुस्तकमा यस्तो लेखिएको छ, “सूपाको वाहेब र अर्ननोनका बेँसीहरू,
wherefore it is said in the book of the Wars of the LORD: Vaheb in Suphah, and the valleys of Arnon,
15 बेँसीका ओह्रालाहरू, जो आरको सहरतिर लाग्छन् र मोआबको सिमानसम्म पुग्छन् ।”
And the slope of the valleys that inclineth toward the seat of Ar, and leaneth upon the border of Moab. —
16 तिनीहरूले त्यहाँबाट बेओरसम्म यात्रा गरे । त्यो इनारमा परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्नुभयो, “मानिसहरूलाई भेला गर् र म तिनीहरूलाई पानी दिन्छु ।”
And from thence to Beer; that is the well whereof the LORD said unto Moses: 'Gather the people together, and I will give them water.'
17 त्यसपछि इस्राएलले यो गीत गायो, “इनारको मूल फुटेर निस्क्यो! यसको गीत गाओ,
Then sang Israel this song: Spring up, O well — sing ye unto it —
18 हाम्रा अगुवाहरूले खनेका इनारबारे मानिसहरूका भारदारहरूले खनेका इनार, राजदण्ड र लहुराले खनेका इनार ।”
The well, which the princes digged, which the nobles of the people delved, with the sceptre, and with their staves. And from the wilderness to Mattanah;
19 अनि तिनीहरू मरुभूमिबाट मत्तानातिर यात्रा गरे । मत्तानाबाट तिनीहरूले नहलीएलतिर यात्रा गरे र नहलीएलबाट बमोततिर,
and from Mattanah to Nahaliel; and from Nahaliel to Bamoth;
20 र बमोतबाट मोआबको मैदानको बेसीँतिर यात्रा गरे । त्यहाँबाट नै पिसगा पर्वतको चुचुरोको फेदीमा मरुभूमी देखिन्छ ।
and from Bamoth to the valley that is in the field of Moab, by the top of Pisgah, which looketh down upon the desert.
21 त्यसपछि इस्राएलले एमोरी राजा सीहोनकहाँ यसो भन्दै समाचावाहक पठाए,
And Israel sent messengers unto Sihon king of the Amorites, saying:
22 “हामीलाई तपाईंको मुलुक भएर जान दिनुहोस् । हामी खेत वा दाखबारी कतै पस्ने छैनौँ । हामी तपाईंका इनाहरूबाट पानी पिउने छैनौँ । हामी तपाईंको सिमाना पार नगरेसम्म राजमार्ग भएर मात्र यात्रा गर्छौं ।”
'Let me pass through thy land; we will not turn aside into field, or into vineyard; we will not drink of the water of the wells; we will go by the king's highway, until we have passed thy border.'
23 तर राजा सीहोनले तिनीहरूको सिमाना भएर जान इस्राएललाई अनुमति दिएनन् । बरु, सीहोनले तिनका सबै फौज जम्मा गरे र इस्राएललाई मरुभूमिमा आक्रमण गरे । तिनी यहाँसम्म आए, जहाँ तिनले इस्राएलसँग युद्ध गरे ।
And Sihon would not suffer Israel to pass through his border; but Sihon gathered all his people together, and went out against Israel into the wilderness, and came to Jahaz; and he fought against Israel.
24 इस्राएलले सीहोनको फौजलाई तरवारले आक्रमण गरे र अर्नोनदेखि यब्बोक नदीसम्म साथै अम्मोनका मानिसहरूको भूमिसम्म कब्जा गरे । अम्मोनका मानिसहरूको सिमाना किल्लाबन्दी गरिएको थियो ।
And Israel smote him with the edge of the sword, and possessed his land from the Arnon unto the Jabbok, even unto the children of Ammon; for the border of the children of Ammon was strong.
25 इस्राएलले हेश्बोन र यसका सबै गाउँसहित एमोरी सहरहरू कब्जा गरे र तिनीहरू सबैमा बसोबास गरे ।
And Israel took all these cities; and Israel dwelt in all the cities of the Amorites, in Heshbon, and in all the towns thereof.
26 हेश्बोन एमोरी राजा सीहोनको सहर थियो, जसले मोआबका पहिलेको राजासँग युद्ध गरेका थिए । सीहोनले अर्नोन नदीसम्म उनको देश कब्जा गरेका थिए ।
For Heshbon was the city of Sihon the king of the Amorites, who had fought against the former king of Moab, and taken all his land out of his hand, even unto the Arnon.
27 यसकारण यसो भनिन्छ, “हेश्बोनमा आओ । सीहोनको सहरको पुनर्निर्माण गरियोस् र फेरि स्थापित होस् ।
Wherefore they that speak in parables say: Come ye to Heshbon! let the city of Sihon be built and established!
28 हेश्बोनबाट आगोको ज्वाला दन्क्यो, सीहोनको सहरबाट एउटा आगोको ज्वाला जसले मोआबको आरलाई र अर्नोनको उच्च स्थलहरूलाई भस्म पार्यो ।
For a fire is gone out of Heshbon, a flame from the city of Sihon; it hath devoured Ar of Moab, the lords of the high places of Arnon.
29 हे मोआब, तँलाई धिक्कार छ! हे कमोशको प्रजा, तँ नष्ट भएको छस् । त्यसले आफ्ना छोराहरूलाई भगुवाहरू बनायो र त्यसका छोरीहरूलाई एमोरीहरूका राजा सीहोनको कैदी बनायो ।
Woe to thee, Moab! thou art undone, O people of Chemosh; he hath given his sons as fugitives, and his daughters into captivity, unto Sihon king of the Amorites.
30 तर हामीले सीहोनलाई जितेका छौँ । हेश्बोन दीबोनसम्म नै नष्ट भएको छ । हामीले तिनीहरूलाई मेदबासम्म पुग्ने नोपासम्म नै पारजित गरेका छौँ ।
We have shot at them — Heshbon is perished — even unto Dibon, and we have laid waste even unto Nophah, which reacheth unto Medeba.
31 त्यसैले इस्राएल एमोरीहरूका मुलुकमा बस्न थाल्यो ।
Thus Israel dwelt in the land of the Amorites.
32 अनि मोशाले याजेरको भेद लिन मानिसहरू पठाए । तिनीहरूले यसका गाउँहरू कब्जा गरे र त्यहाँ भएका एमोरीहरूलाई धपाए ।
And Moses sent to spy out Jazer, and they took the towns thereof, and drove out the Amorites that were there.
33 त्यसपछि तिनीहरू फर्के र बाशानको बाटोतिर उक्ले । बाशानका राजा ओग तिनीहरू विरुद्ध निस्के, तिनी र तिनका फौजले एद्रईमा तिनीहरूसँग लडे ।
And they turned and went up by the way of Bashan; and Og the king of Bashan went out against them, he and all his people, to battle at Edrei.
34 त्यसपछि परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्नुभयो, “त्यसँग नडरा, किनभने मैले त्यसलाई, त्यसका सबै फौज र त्यसको भूमि तँलाई दिएको छु । त्यसलाई पनि हेश्बोनमा बस्ने एमोरी राजा सीहोनलाई गरेझैँ गर् ।”
And the LORD said unto Moses: 'Fear him not; for I have delivered him into thy hand, and all his people, and his land; and thou shalt do to him as thou didst unto Sihon king of the Amorites, who dwelt at Heshbon.'
35 त्यसैले तिनीहरूले कुनै पनि मानिस जीवित नरहुञ्जेल उनी, उनका छोराहरू र उनका सबै फौजलाई मारे । अनि तिनीहरूले उनको भूमि कब्जा गरे ।
So they smote him, and his sons, and all his people, until there was none left him remaining; and they possessed his land.
