Joshua 9:1-26 in Nepali

1 And it came to pass, when all the kings which were on this side Jordan, in the hills, and in the valleys, and in all the coasts of the great sea over against Lebanon, the Hittite, and the Amorite, the Canaanite, the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite, heard thereof;

2 That they gathered themselves together, to fight with Joshua and with Israel, with one accord.

3 And when the inhabitants of Gibeon heard what Joshua had done unto Jericho and to Ai,

4 They did work wilily, and went and made as if they had been ambassadors, and took old sacks upon their asses, and wine bottles, old, and rent, and bound up;

5 And old shoes and clouted upon their feet, and old garments upon them; and all the bread of their provision was dry and mouldy.

6 And they went to Joshua unto the camp at Gilgal, and said unto him, and to the men of Israel, We be come from a far country: now therefore make ye a league with us.

7 And the men of Israel said unto the Hivites, Peradventure ye dwell among us; and how shall we make a league with you?

8 And they said unto Joshua, We are thy servants. And Joshua said unto them, Who are ye? and from whence come ye?

9 And they said unto him, From a very far country thy servants are come because of the name of the Lord thy God: for we have heard the fame of him, and all that he did in Egypt,

10 And all that he did to the two kings of the Amorites, that were beyond Jordan, to Sihon king of Heshbon, and to Og king of Bashan, which was at Ashtaroth.

11 Wherefore our elders and all the inhabitants of our country spake to us, saying, Take victuals with you for the journey, and go to meet them, and say unto them, We are your servants: therefore now make ye a league with us.

12 This our bread we took hot for our provision out of our houses on the day we came forth to go unto you; but now, behold, it is dry, and it is mouldy:

13 And these bottles of wine, which we filled, were new; and, behold, they be rent: and these our garments and our shoes are become old by reason of the very long journey.

14 And the men took of their victuals, and asked not counsel at the mouth of the Lord.

15 And Joshua made peace with them, and made a league with them, to let them live: and the princes of the congregation sware unto them.

16 And it came to pass at the end of three days after they had made a league with them, that they heard that they were their neighbours, and that they dwelt among them.

17 And the children of Israel journeyed, and came unto their cities on the third day. Now their cities were Gibeon, and Chephirah, and Beeroth, and Kirjath-jearim.

18 And the children of Israel smote them not, because the princes of the congregation had sworn unto them by the Lord God of Israel. And all the congregation murmured against the princes.

19 But all the princes said unto all the congregation, We have sworn unto them by the Lord God of Israel: now therefore we may not touch them.

20 This we will do to them; we will even let them live, lest wrath be upon us, because of the oath which we sware unto them.

21 And the princes said unto them, Let them live; but let them be hewers of wood and drawers of water unto all the congregation; as the princes had promised them.

22 And Joshua called for them, and he spake unto them, saying, Wherefore have ye beguiled us, saying, We are very far from you; when ye dwell among us?

23 Now therefore ye are cursed, and there shall none of you be freed from being bondmen, and hewers of wood and drawers of water for the house of my God.

24 And they answered Joshua, and said, Because it was certainly told thy servants, how that the Lord thy God commanded his servant Moses to give you all the land, and to destroy all the inhabitants of the land from before you, therefore we were sore afraid of our lives because of you, and have done this thing.

25 And now, behold, we are in thine hand: as it seemeth good and right unto thee to do unto us, do.

26 And so did he unto them, and delivered them out of the hand of the children of Israel, that they slew them not.

1 जब यर्दन नदीको पश्चिम क्षेत्रका राजाहरूले यस विषयमा सुने, यहोशू र इस्राएलीहरूसँग युद्ध गर्न सम्मिलित भए। तिनीहरू पर्वतहरूबाट, समतल भूमिबाट, भूमध्यसागरको किनाराबाट, लबानोनको माथिबाट आए। तिनीहरू हित्ती, एमोरी, कनानी, परिज्जी, हिव्वी, यबूसीहरू सबै एक दलमा आए।
And it came to pass, when all the kings which were on this side Jordan, in the hills, and in the valleys, and in all the coasts of the great sea over against Lebanon, the Hittite, and the Amorite, the Canaanite, the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite, heard thereof;

2 यी सबै राजाहरू एक साथ भेला भए। तिनीहरूले यहोशू अनि इस्राएलका मानिसहरूको विरूद्ध युद्ध गर्ने योजना बनाए।
That they gathered themselves together, to fight with Joshua and with Israel, with one accord.

3 कसरी यहोशूले यरीहो अनि ऐ शहरलाई परास्त गरे गिबोन शहरका मानिसहरूले त्यस विषयमा सुने।
And when the inhabitants of Gibeon heard what Joshua had done unto Jericho and to Ai,

4 यसर्थ ती मानिसहरूले इस्राएलका मानिसहरूलाई मूर्ख तुल्याउने प्रयत्न गरे। तिनीहरूको योजना यो थियो, तिनीहरूले दाखरस हाल्ने छालाका पुराना मशकहरू जम्मा गरे जो चर्केका अनि फुटेका थिए। तिनीहरूले ती दाखरस हाल्ने छालाका पुराना मशकहरू आफ्ना पशुहरूमा लधाए। अनि आफ्ना पशुहरू माथि पुराना थाङ्गनाहरू लगाए। जसद्वारा यस्तो देखियोस् कि तिनीहरू अत्यन्त टाढाबाट यात्रा गरेर आएका हुन्।
They did work wilily, and went and made as if they had been ambassadors, and took old sacks upon their asses, and wine bottles, old, and rent, and bound up;

5 ती मानिसहरूले आफ्ना खुट्टामा पुराना जुत्ता लगाए। ती मानिसहरूले पुराना बस्त्रहरू लगाए। अनि केही बासी रोटी भेट्टाए जो सूख्खा अनि ढुँडी परेका थिए। यसरी ती मानिसहरू धेरै टाढाका स्थानबाट यात्रा गरेर आएका जस्तै देखिन्थे।
And old shoes and clouted upon their feet, and old garments upon them; and all the bread of their provision was dry and mouldy.

6 तब ती मानिसहरू इस्राएलका मानिसहरूका छाउनीमा गए। यो छाउनी गिलगाल नजिक थियो। ती मानिसहरू यहोशू कहाँ गए अनि तिनलाई भने, “हामी अति टाढा देशबाट यात्रा गरेर आएका हौं हामी तपाईंसित शान्ति-सन्धि गर्न चाहन्छौं।”
And they went to Joshua unto the camp at Gilgal, and said unto him, and to the men of Israel, We be come from a far country: now therefore make ye a league with us.

7 इस्राएलका मानिसहरूले यी हिव्वी मानिसहरूलाई भने, “हुन सक्छ तिमीहरूले हामीलाई छल्ने कोशिश गर्दैछौ। हुन सक्छ तिमीहरू हाम्रो नजिकमा बस्छौ। हामी तिमीहरूसित सन्धि गर्न सक्तैन्नौं। जब सम्म हामी जान्दैनौं तिमीहरू कहाँबाट आएका हौ?”
And the men of Israel said unto the Hivites, Peradventure ye dwell among us; and how shall we make a league with you?

8 ती हिव्वी मानिसहरूले यहोशूलाई भने, “हामी तपाईंका दासहरू हौं।”तर यहोशूले सोधे, “तिमीहरू को हौ? तिमीहरू कहाँबाट आएका हौ?”
And they said unto Joshua, We are thy servants. And Joshua said unto them, Who are ye? and from whence come ye?

9 ती मानिसहरूले उत्तर दिए, “हामी तपाईंका दास हौं। हामी अति टाढा देशबाट आएका हौं। हामी आयौं किनभने परमप्रभु तपाईंहरूका परमेश्वरले मिश्रमा गर्नु भएको सबै महान कार्यहरूको विवरण हामीले सुन्यौ।
And they said unto him, From a very far country thy servants are come because of the name of the Lord thy God: for we have heard the fame of him, and all that he did in Egypt,

10 अनि हामीले सुन्यौं कि उहाँले यर्दन नदीको पूर्वतफर्का एमोरी मानिसहरूका दुइ राजाहरूलाई परास्त गरिदिनु भयो। ती हेश्बोनका राजा सीहोन अनि अस्तारोत देशको बाशानका राजा ओग थिए।
And all that he did to the two kings of the Amorites, that were beyond Jordan, to Sihon king of Heshbon, and to Og king of Bashan, which was at Ashtaroth.

11 यसर्थ हाम्रा अगुवाहरू र हाम्रा मानिसहरूले हामीलाई भने, ‘तिमीहरूको यात्राका निम्ति प्रचुर मात्रामा खाद्य पदार्थ बोक। जाऊ अनि इस्राएलका मानिसहरूसित भेट गर। तिनीहरूलाई भन, “हामी तपाईंहरूका दासहरू हौं। हामीसित शान्ति सन्धि गर्नुहोस्।”‘
Wherefore our elders and all the inhabitants of our country spake to us, saying, Take victuals with you for the journey, and go to meet them, and say unto them, We are your servants: therefore now make ye a league with us.

12 “हाम्रा रोटीहरू हेर्नु होस्। हामीले घर छोड्दा यी तातो र ताजा थिए। तर अहिले तपाईंहरूले देख्न सक्नुहुन्छ कि यी सूखा अनि पुराना भएको छन्।
This our bread we took hot for our provision out of our houses on the day we came forth to go unto you; but now, behold, it is dry, and it is mouldy:

13 हाम्रा दाखरसका छालाका मशकहरू हेर्नुहोस्। हामीले घर छोड्दा यी नयाँ अनि दाखमद्यले भरिएका थिए। अहिले तपाईंहरूले देख्नसक्नु हुन्छ, कि तिनीहरू चर्केका अनि पुराना भएका छन्। हाम्रा बस्त्र अनि चप्पलहरू हेर्नु होस्। तपाईंहरूले देख्न सक्नु हुन्छ कि लामो यात्राले गर्दा हामीले लगाएका कुराहरू प्रायः थोत्रा भएका छन्।”
And these bottles of wine, which we filled, were new; and, behold, they be rent: and these our garments and our shoes are become old by reason of the very long journey.

14 इस्राएलका मानिसहरू, जान्न चाहन्थे के यी मानिसहरूले सत्य भन्दै छन्। यसर्थ तिनीहरूले केही रोटी चाखे-तर तिनीहरूले परमप्रभुलाई सोधेनन् जो तिनीहरूले गर्नु पर्ने थियो।
And the men took of their victuals, and asked not counsel at the mouth of the Lord.

15 यहोशू तिनीहरूसित सन्धि गर्न सहमत भए। तिनीहरूलाई जीवित राख्न तिनी सहमत भए। इस्राएलका अगुवाहरू यहोशूको यो शपथ प्रति सहमत भए।
And Joshua made peace with them, and made a league with them, to let them live: and the princes of the congregation sware unto them.

16 तिमीहरूसित सम्झौता गरेको तीन दिन पछि इस्राएलीले थाहा पाए। कि ती मानिसहरू वास्तवमा तिनीहरूका नजिकै बस्नेहरू रहेछन्।
And it came to pass at the end of three days after they had made a league with them, that they heard that they were their neighbours, and that they dwelt among them.

17 यसकारण तेस्रो दिनमा इस्राएलीहरू तिनीहरूको शहरहरूमा गए। ती शहरहरू गिबोन, कपीरा, बेरोत र किर्यत्यारैम थिए।
And the children of Israel journeyed, and came unto their cities on the third day. Now their cities were Gibeon, and Chephirah, and Beeroth, and Kirjath-jearim.

18 तर इस्राएलका सेनाले ती शहरहरूको विरूद्ध युद्ध गर्ने प्रयत्न गरेनन् तिनीहरूले ती मानिसहरूसित शान्ति-सम्झौता गरेका थिए। तिनीहरूले परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्वरको समक्ष ती मानिसहरूलाई शपथ दिएका थिए।सबै मानिसहरूले ती अगुवाहरू विरूद्ध विरोध जनाए जसले सम्झौता गरेका थिए।
And the children of Israel smote them not, because the princes of the congregation had sworn unto them by the Lord God of Israel. And all the congregation murmured against the princes.

19 तर ती अगुवाहरूले उत्तर दिए, “हामीले हाम्रो शपथ दिएका छौं। हामीले परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्वरको सामुन्ने शपथ गरेका छौं। अब हामी तिनीहरू विरूद्ध लडून सक्तैनौं।
But all the princes said unto all the congregation, We have sworn unto them by the Lord God of Israel: now therefore we may not touch them.

20 यो त्यही हो जो हामीले गर्नु पर्छ। हामीले तिनीहरूलाई बाँच्न दिनुपर्छ। हामीले तिनीहरूलाई चोट पुर्याउनु हुँदैन नत्र परमेश्वर हामीसित क्रोधित हुनुहुनेछ किनभने हामीले तिनीहरूलाई दिएको शपथ भङ्ग हुनेछ।
This we will do to them; we will even let them live, lest wrath be upon us, because of the oath which we sware unto them.

21 यसर्थ तिनीहरूलाई जीवित रहन देऊ। तर तिनीहरू हाम्रा सेवक हुनेछन्। तिनीहरूले हाम्रो निम्ति दाउरा काट्नेछन् अनि हाम्रा सबै मानिसहरूका निम्ति पानी बोक्ने छन्।” यसर्थ ती अगुवाहरूले ती मानिसहरूसित गरेका प्रतिज्ञा भङ्ग गरेनन्।
And the princes said unto them, Let them live; but let them be hewers of wood and drawers of water unto all the congregation; as the princes had promised them.

22 यहोशूले गिबोनी मानिसहरूलाई बोलाए। तिनले भने, “तिमीहरूले हामीसित किन झूटो बोल्यौ? तिमीहरूको देश हाम्रो छाउनीको छेउमा थियो। तर तिमीहरूले तिमीहरू टाढा देशका भनेर हामीलाई भन्यौ।
And Joshua called for them, and he spake unto them, saying, Wherefore have ye beguiled us, saying, We are very far from you; when ye dwell among us?

23 अब तिमीहरूका मानिसहरूले अनेक कष्ट पाउने छन्। तिमीहरूका सबै मानिसहरू दास हुनेछन्-तिमीहरूले दाउरा काट्नु पर्नेछ अनि परमेश्वरको मन्दिरका निम्ति पानी बोक्नु पर्नेछ।”
Now therefore ye are cursed, and there shall none of you be freed from being bondmen, and hewers of wood and drawers of water for the house of my God.

24 गिबोनी मानिसहरूले उत्तर दिए, “हामीले तपाईंसित झूटो कुरा गर्यौं किनभने हामीलाई तपाईंहरूले मार्नु हुनेछ भनी हामी भयभीत थियौं। हामीले यो सुन्यौं कि परमेश्वरले उहाँका दास मोशालाई यो सम्पूर्ण देश तपाईंहरूलाई दिनु भनी आज्ञा दिनु भएको थियो। अनि परमेश्वरले तपाईंहरूलाई भन्नुभयो यो देशमा बस्ने सबै मानिसहरूलाई मारिदिनु। त्यसै कारणले हामीले तपाईंसित झूटो बोल्यौं।
And they answered Joshua, and said, Because it was certainly told thy servants, how that the Lord thy God commanded his servant Moses to give you all the land, and to destroy all the inhabitants of the land from before you, therefore we were sore afraid of our lives because of you, and have done this thing.

25 अब हामी तपाईंहरूका दासहरू हौं। तपाईं जे उचित ठान्नु हुन्छ तपाईंले गर्न सक्नु हुन्छ।”
And now, behold, we are in thine hand: as it seemeth good and right unto thee to do unto us, do.

26 गिबोनका मानिसहरू यसरी दास भए। तर यहोशूले तिनीहरूलाई जीवित रहन दिए। यहोशूले इस्राएलका मानिसहरूलाई तिनीहरूलाई मार्न दिएनन्।
And so did he unto them, and delivered them out of the hand of the children of Israel, that they slew them not.
