English: So Hushai, David's friend, came into the city; and Absalom came into Jerusalem.
Nepali: तब दाऊदका साथी हुशै शहर गए। अनि अब्शालोम यरूशलेम पुगे।
English: When David was a little past the top, behold, Ziba the servant of Mephibosheth met him, with a couple of donkeys saddled, and on them two hundred loaves of bread, and one hundred clusters of raisins, and one hundred summer fruits, and a bottle of wine.
Nepali: दाऊद जैतुन डाँडाको टापुमा अलिक पर मात्र पुगेका थिए, मपीबोशेतको नोकर सीबाले दाऊदलाई भेटे। सीबासँग जीन लगाम कस्सिएका दुइवटा गधा थिए। गधामा 200 रोटी, 100 झुप्पा किसमिस, 100 ग्रीष्मफल र दाखरस लादिएको एउटा मसक थियो।
English: The king said to Ziba, What do you mean by these? Ziba said, The donkeys are for the king's household to ride on; and the bread and summer fruit for the young men to eat; and the wine, that such as are faint in the wilderness may drink.
Nepali: राजा दाऊदले सीबालाई सोधे, “यी चीज किन ल्यायौ?” सीबाले जवाफ दिए, “गधाहरू राजाको परिवारलाई चढनको निम्ति ल्याएको हो। रोटी र ग्रीष्मफलहरू अधिकारीहरूलाई खाना भनेर अनि मरूभूमिमा हिंडदा जो कमजोरी भएर हिंडन सक्दैनन् तिनीहरूका निम्ति दाखरस ल्याएको।”
English: The king said, "Where is your master's son?" Ziba said to the king, "Behold, he is staying in Jerusalem; for he said, 'Today the house of Israel will restore me the kingdom of my father.'"
Nepali: राजाले सोधे, “मपीबोशेत खै कहाँ छन्।?” सीबाले जवाफ दिए, “मपीबोशेत यरूशलेममा नै बसे। तिनले सोचे, ‘ अब इस्राएलीहरूले मेरा पिताका राज्य मलाई दिन्छन्।”‘
English: Then the king said to Ziba, "Behold, all that pertains to Mephibosheth is yours." Ziba said, "I do obeisance. Let me find favor in your sight, my lord, O king."
Nepali: तब राजाले सीबालाई भने, “यही कारणले मेपीबोशेथका जाय जेथा अब म तिमीलाई दिन्छु।” सीबाले भने, “म तपाईंसँग नतमस्तक छु। मलाई विश्वास छ म तपाईंलाई सधैं रिझाउनसक्छु।”
English: When king David came to Bahurim, behold, a man of the family of the house of Saul came out, whose name was Shimei, the son of Gera. He came out, and cursed still as he came.
Nepali: दाऊद बहूरीममा आए। बहूरीमबाट शाऊलका परिवारका एकजना मानिस निस्किए। त्यसको नाउँ शिमी थियो, जो गेराका छोरा थिए। शिमीले दाऊदलाई धेरै सराप्दै आए। लगातार नराम्रो नामले सराप्दै थिए।
English: He cast stones at David, and at all the servants of king David, and all the people and all the mighty men were on his right hand and on his left.
Nepali: शिमीले दाऊद र तिनका अधिकारीहरूलाई ढुङ्गाले हान्न शुरू गरे। तर मानिसहरू र सिपाहीहरूले दाऊदलाई घेरे।
English: Shimei said when he cursed, "Be gone, be gone, you man of blood, and base fellow!
Nepali: शिमीले दाऊदलाई सराप दिए। उनले भने, “ए हत्यारा, भाग यहाँबाट छिटो भाग।
English: Yahweh has returned on you all the blood of the house of Saul, in whose place you have reigned! Yahweh has delivered the kingdom into the hand of Absalom your son! Behold, you are caught by your own mischief, because you are a man of blood!"
Nepali: परमप्रभुले तलाईं सजाय दिदैछन्। किन थाहा छ? कारण तैले शाऊलका परिवारलाई मारिस्। तैंले शाऊलको राजसिंहासन चोरिस्। तर अहिले ठीक यस्तो गति हुँदैछ तेरो। परमप्रभुले तेरो राज्य तेरो छोरा अब्शालोमलाई दिनुभयो। किन थाहा छ? कारण तँ हत्यारा होस्।”
English: Then Abishai the son of Zeruiah said to the king, "Why should this dead dog curse my lord the king? Please let me go over and take off his head."
Nepali: सरूयाहका छोरा अबीशैले राजालाई भने, “हे मेरो मालिक राजा यो मरेको कुकुरले किन तपाईंलाई सराप्दैछ? दया गरी मलाई उसको टाउको छिनाउन दिनुहोस्।”
English: The king said, "What have I to do with you, you sons of Zeruiah? Because he curses, and because Yahweh has said to him, 'Curse David;' who then shall say, 'Why have you done so?'"
Nepali: तर राजाले जवाफ दिए, “सरूयाहका छोराहरू किन तिमीहरू मेरो मामलाहरूमा हात हाल्छौ? साँच्चो हो, शिमीले मलाई सराप्दै छ। तर सायद परमप्रभुले मलाई सराप्नु उसलाई भन्नु भएको होला।” कसले परमप्रभुलाई उहाँले गर्नु भएको विषयमा प्रश्न गर्न सक्छ र?”
English: David said to Abishai, and to all his servants, "Behold, my son, who came forth from my bowels, seeks my life. How much more this Benjamite, now? Leave him alone, and let him curse; for Yahweh has invited him.
Nepali: दाऊदले अबीशै र सारा नोकरहरूलाई भने, “हेर, मेरो आफ्नै छोरा (अब्शालोम) ले मलाई मार्न खोज्दैछ। यो मानिस (शिमी) बिन्यामीन कुल समूहले मलाई मार्ने अधिकार ज्यादा प्राप्त गर्छ। उसलाई एक्लै रहन देऊ। मलाई मनपरि भन्न देऊ। परमप्रभुले नै त्यसो गर्नु भन्नु भएको हो।
English: It may be that Yahweh will look on the wrong done to me, and that Yahweh will repay me good for the cursing of me today."
Nepali: यो हुनसक्छ, परमप्रभुले मैले शिमीद्वारा गालि खाएको देखेर म प्रति दया गर्दै राम्रो गर्नुहुन्छ।”
English: So David and his men went by the way; and Shimei went along on the hillside opposite him, and cursed as he went, threw stones at him, and threw dust.
Nepali: यसकारण दाऊद र तिनका मानिसहरू आफ्नो बाटो लागे। तर शिमीले दाऊदलाई पछ्याए। पहाडको बाटोको अर्कोतिर भएर शिमी हिंड्न थाल्यो। यात्राभरि दाऊदलाई गाली गर्दै शिमी हिडयो। शिमीले दाऊदलाई ढुङ्गा र धूलोले पनि हान्यो।
English: The king, and all the people who were with him, came weary; and he refreshed himself there.
Nepali: राजा दाऊद र तिनका अनुयायीहरू यर्दन नदी पुगे। राजा र अनुयायीहरू थकित थिए। त्यहाँ तिनीहरूले आराम गरे र आफूलाई थकावट मुक्त पारे।
English: Absalom, and all the people, the men of Israel, came to Jerusalem, and Ahithophel with him.
Nepali: अब्शालोम, अहीतोपेले र अन्य मानिसहरू जो इस्राएलवासी थिए यरूशलेम आए।
English: It happened, when Hushai the Archite, David's friend, had come to Absalom, that Hushai said to Absalom, "Long live the king! Long live the king!"
Nepali: दाऊदका एरेकी हूशै नामक साथी अब्शालोमलाई भेटून आए। उसले अब्शालोमलाई भने, “राजाको चिरायु होस्। राजाको चिरायु होस्।”
English: Absalom said to Hushai, "Is this your kindness to your friend? Why didn't you go with your friend?"
Nepali: अब्शालोमले सोधे, “तिमी तिम्रा मित्र दाऊदको विश्वासपात्र किन बनेनौ? यरूशलेम छोडेर किन दाऊदसंग गएनौ?”
English: Hushai said to Absalom, "No; but whomever Yahweh, and this people, and all the men of Israel have chosen, his will I be, and with him I will stay.
Nepali: हूशैले भने, “म परमप्रभुले छान्नु भएको मानिसका अधीनमा बस्छु। यी मानिसहरू अनि इस्राएलका मानिसहरूले तपाईंलाई छाने। म तपाईंसँगै बस्छु।
English: Again, whom should I serve? Shouldn't I serve in the presence of his son? As I have served in your father's presence, so will I be in your presence."
Nepali: पहिले मैले तपाईंका पिताको सेवा गरें। अब म तपाईंको सेवा गर्नेछु तपाईं दाऊदका छोरा हुनहुन्छ।”
English: Then Absalom said to Ahithophel, "Give your counsel what we shall do."
Nepali: अब्शालोमले अहीतोपेललाई भन्छन्, “कृपया अब हामीले के गर्नु पर्छ भन।”
English: Ahithophel said to Absalom, "Go in to your father's concubines, that he has left to keep the house. Then all Israel will hear that you are abhorred by your father. Then the hands of all who are with you will be strong."
Nepali: अहीतोपेलेले अब्शालोमलाई भने, “तिम्रा पिताजीले उहाँका केही पत्नीहरूलाई आफ्नो घर रेखदेख गर्न छोडनु भएको छ। जाऊ र तिनीहरूसित शारीरिक सम्बन्ध राख। त्यसपछि प्रत्येक इस्राएलीलाई यो थाहा हुनेछ कि तिमीलाई तिम्रा पिताले घृणा गर्छन् भनेर। अनि ती सबै मानिसहरूले तिमीलाई सहयोग पुर्याउन उत्साहित हुनेछन्।”
English: So they spread Absalom a tent on the top of the house; and Absalom went in to his father's concubines in the sight of all Israel.
Nepali: तब अब्शालोमको निम्ति तिनीहरूले महलको छानामा एउटा पाल हाले। अनि अब्शालोमले आफ्ना पिताका रखौटी पत्नीहरूसित शारीरिक सम्बन्ध राखे। सबै इस्राएलीहरूले यो देखे।
English: The counsel of Ahithophel, which he gave in those days, was as if a man inquired at the oracle of God: so was all the counsel of Ahithophel both with David and with Absalom.
Nepali: त्यस समय अहीतोपेलको सल्लाह दाऊद र अब्शालोम दुवैका निम्ति साह्रै महत्वपूर्ण थियो। तिनीहरूले सोचे कि यो त्यति महत्वपूर्णको हो जति परमेश्वरको वचन एउटा मानिसको निम्ति हुन्छ।
English: Moreover Ahithophel said to Absalom, "Let me now choose twelve thousand men, and I will arise and pursue after David tonight.
Nepali: अहीतोपेलले अब्शालोमलाई भने, “दया गरि मलाई 12,000 मानिस छान्न दिनुहोस्। म आज राती नै दाऊदको खेदो गर्छु।
English: I will come on him while he is weary and exhausted, and will make him afraid. All the people who are with him shall flee. I will strike the king only;
Nepali: जब उ थाकेर कमजोर भएको हुन्छ म उसलाई पक्रनेछु। म त्यसलाई धम्काउँछु। तब उसका मानिसहरू सबै भाग्नेछन्। तर म खालि दाऊदलाई मात्र मार्नेछु।
English: and I will bring back all the people to you. The man whom you seek is as if all returned. All the people shall be in peace."
Nepali: त्यसपछि उसका सेनालाई तपाईंको अनुगामी बनाइदिन्छु। यदि दाऊद मरे भने सबै मानिसहरू शान्तिसित तपाईंको पछि आउनेछन्।”
English: The saying pleased Absalom well, and all the elders of Israel.
Nepali: यो योजना अब्शालोम र इस्राएलका अगुवाहरूलाई राम्रो लाग्यो।
English: Then Absalom said, "Now call Hushai the Archite also, and let us hear likewise what he says."
Nepali: तर अब्शालोमले भने, “अहिले एरेकी हूशैलाई बोलाऊ। म उसलाई पनि सोध्छु, उसले के भन्छ सुनौं।”
English: When Hushai had come to Absalom, Absalom spoke to him, saying, "Ahithophel has spoken like this. Shall we do what he says? If not, speak up."
Nepali: हुशै अब्शालोम भएकहाँ आए। अब्शालोमले हुशैलाई भने, “यो अहीतोपेलको योजना हो। के यो योजनालाई हामी कार्यमा ल्याउन सक्छौं? अथवा सक्दैनौं दया गरेर तपाईंको विचार भन्नुहोस्।”
English: Hushai said to Absalom, "The counsel that Ahithophel has given this time is not good."
Nepali: हुशैले भने, “यस समय अहीतोपेलको सल्लाह ठीक छैन।”
English: Hushai said moreover, "You know your father and his men, that they are mighty men, and they are fierce in their minds, like a bear robbed of her cubs in the field. Your father is a man of war, and will not lodge with the people.
Nepali: “तपाईंलाई थाहै छ तपाईंका पिता र उहाँसँग भएका मानिसहरू धेरै बलियाछन्। तिनीहरू बच्चाहरू खोसिएका भालू जस्तै हिस्रक छन् तपाईंका पिता निपुण योद्धा हुनुहुन्छ। उहाँ रातभरी सैनिकहरू सित रहनु हुन्न।
English: Behold, he is now hidden in some pit, or in some other place. It will happen, when some of them have fallen at the first, that whoever hears it will say, 'There is a slaughter among the people who follow Absalom!'
Nepali: जहाँसम्म उहाँ त कुनै गुफा अथवा अरू कुनै ठाउँमा लुकिसक्नु भयो। यदि तपाईंका पिताजीले तपाईंका मानिसहरू माथि धावा बोल्नुभयो भने मानिसहरूले यो खबर सुन्नेछन्। अनि तिनीहरूले सोच्ने छन्, ‘अब्शालोमका अनुयायीहरू हार्दैछन्।’
English: Even he who is valiant, whose heart is as the heart of a lion, will utterly melt; for all Israel knows that your father is a mighty man, and those who are with him are valiant men.
Nepali: तब सिंह जस्ता सहासी मानिसहरू पनि डराउने छन। किनभने? इस्राएलका सबै मानिसहरूलाई थाहै छ कि तपाईंका पिता बलिया लडाकु हुन, अनि उनका मानिसहरू धेरै साहसी छन्।
English: But I counsel that all Israel be gathered together to you, from Dan even to Beersheba, as the sand that is by the sea for multitude; and that you go to battle in your own person.
Nepali: “म यो सुझाव दिन्छुः दानदेखि बेर्शेबासम्मका सबै इस्राएलीहरूलाई भेला गराउनु होस्। मानिसहरू समुद्रका किनारका बालुवा जस्तै हुनेछन्। त्यसपछि तपाईं आफै युद्धभूमिमा जानुहोस्।
English: So shall we come on him in some place where he shall be found, and we will light on him as the dew falls on the ground; and of him and of all the men who are with him we will not leave so much as one.
Nepali: हामीले दाऊदलाई लुकेकै ठाउँमा समाउने छौं। दाऊदलाई धेरै सिपाहीहरूको साथमा जाइलाग्नु पर्छ। हाम्रो संख्या भुँइमा खसेको शीतका थोपाहरू जस्तो हुनुपर्छ। हामीले दाऊदलाई उसका मानिसहरूसँगै मार्नु पर्छ। कसैलाई जिउँदो छाडने होइन।
English: Moreover, if he be gone into a city, then shall all Israel bring ropes to that city, and we will draw it into the river, until there isn't one small stone found there."
Nepali: तर यदि दाऊद कुनै शहरमा भाग्यो भने, सबै इस्राएलीहरूले डोरी ल्याउने छन् अनि हामी शहरको पर्खाललाई बेंसीको तल तान्ने छौ एउटा सानो ढुङ्गा सम्म पनि छोडिने छैन्।”
English: Absalom and all the men of Israel said, "The counsel of Hushai the Archite is better than the counsel of Ahithophel." For Yahweh had ordained to defeat the good counsel of Ahithophel, to the intent that Yahweh might bring evil on Absalom.
Nepali: अब्शालोम अनि इस्राएलीहरूले भने, “एरेकी हूशैको सल्लाह अहीतोपेलको भन्दा राम्रो छ।” तिनीहरूले किन यसो भन्यो भने यो परमप्रभु कै योजना हो। परमप्रभुले अहीतोपेलको राम्रो सल्लाहलाई नष्ट पारिदिनु भयो। कसरी परमप्रभुले अब्शालोमलाई सजाय दिनुभयो।
English: Then Hushai said to Zadok and to Abiathar the priests, "Ahithophel counseled Absalom and the elders of Israel that way; and I have counseled this way.
Nepali: हुशैले ती कुराहरू पूजाहारी सादोक र एबीयातारलाई भने। हूशैले अहीतोपेलको अब्शालोम र इस्राएलका अधिकारीलाई दिएको सल्लाहबारे भने। हुशैले आफूले दिएको सल्लाहको पनि उल्लेख गरे। हुशैले भने,
English: Now therefore send quickly, and tell David, saying, 'Don't lodge this night at the fords of the wilderness, but by all means pass over; lest the king be swallowed up, and all the people who are with him.'"
Nepali: “दाऊदलाई छिटो खबर पठाऊ। तिनलाई मानिसहरूले जहाँ मरूभूमि पार गर्छन् त्यहाँ नबस्नु भन्नु। चाँडै यर्दन नदी पार गर्नु भन्नु। यदि नदी पार गरे भने राजा र तिनका मानिसहरू समातिने छैनन्।”
English: Now Jonathan and Ahimaaz were staying by En Rogel; and a female servant used to go and tell them; and they went and told king David. For they might not be seen to come into the city.
Nepali: पूजाहारीका छोरा जोनाथन अनि अहीमास एन-रोगेलमा पर्खिएका थिए। शहरभित्र आफू नदेखुन् भनेर तिनीहरू चाहान्थे, यसैले एउटी नोकर्नी तिनीहरूकहाँ आइन् र तिनले खबर दिइन्। तब जोनाथन र अहीमास दाऊदलाई खबर भन्न हिडे।
English: But a boy saw them, and told Absalom. Then they both went away quickly, and came to the house of a man in Bahurim, who had a well in his court; and they went down there.
Nepali: तर एउटा केटोले जोनाथन र अहीमासलाई देखे। त्यो केटो अब्शालोमलाई भन्न दौड्यो। जोनाथन र अहीमास चाँडो-चाँडो भागे। तिनीहरू बहूरीमका एकजनाको घरमा आइपुगे। जसको आँगनमा एउटा कुवा थियो। जोनाथन र अहीमास कुवाभित्र गए।
English: The woman took and spread the covering over the well's mouth, and spread out bruised grain on it; and nothing was known.
Nepali: त्यस मानिसकी पत्नीले च्यादरले कुवा ढाकिदिइन्। तब तिनले त्यो च्यादरलाई अन्नले ढाकिन। कुवा अन्नको राश जस्तो देखिइयो। यसकारण कसैले पनि जोनाथन र अहीमास त्यहाँ लुकेका छन् भनेर सोच्नै सकेनन्।
English: Absalom's servants came to the woman to the house; and they said, "Where are Ahimaaz and Jonathan?" The woman said to them, "They have gone over the brook of water." When they had sought and could not find them, they returned to Jerusalem.
Nepali: अब्शालोमको नोकर त्यस महिलाको घरमा आएर सोधे, “अहिमास र जोनाथन कहाँ छन्?” त्यस महिलाले अब्शालोमको नोकरलाई भनिन्, “तिनीहरूले त खोला तरिसके होला।” अब्शालोमको नोकर जोनाथन र अहीमासको खोजीमा अघि बढयो। तर तिनीहरूलाई भेटून सकेनन् यसर्थ अब्शालोमको नोकर यरूशलेम फर्कियो।
English: It happened, after they had departed, that they came up out of the well, and went and told king David; and they said to David, "Arise and pass quickly over the water; for thus has Ahithophel counseled against you."
Nepali: अब्शालोमको नोकर हिडेपछि जोनाथन र अहीमास कुवाबाट निस्किए। तिनीहरू दाऊदलाई खबर भन्न गए। तिनीहरूले दाऊदलाई भने, “छिटो, नदी पार गरिहाल्नु होस्। अहीतोपेलले तपाईंको विरूद्धमा यस्तो योजना बनाएको छ।”
English: Then David arose, and all the people who were with him, and they passed over the Jordan. By the morning light there lacked not one of them who had not gone over the Jordan.
Nepali: तब दाऊद र उसका सबै मानिसहरूले यर्दन नदी तरे सुर्य उदय हुन अघि, दाऊदका मानिसहरू प्रत्येकले यर्दन नदी पार गरे।
English: When Ahithophel saw that his counsel was not followed, he saddled his donkey, and arose, and went home, to his city, and set his house in order, and hanged himself; and he died, and was buried in the tomb of his father.
Nepali: अहीतोपेलले बुझे कि कुनै इस्राएलीले पनि उनको सल्लाह मानेनन्। अहीतोपेल आफ्नो गधामा चढेर आफ्नो शहरको घर गए। परिवारका लागि केही योजना बनाएर आफू पासो लागेर मरे। तिनको मृत्युपछि मानिसहरूले उनैका पिताको चिहानको छेउमा गाडे।
English: Then David came to Mahanaim. Absalom passed over the Jordan, he and all the men of Israel with him.
Nepali: दाऊद महनैम पुगे। अब्शालोम र उनका साथमा रहेका इस्राएलीहरू यर्दन नदी पार गरेर गए।
English: Absalom set Amasa over the army instead of Joab. Now Amasa was the son of a man, whose name was Ithra the Israelite, who went in to Abigail the daughter of Nahash, sister to Zeruiah, Joab's mother.
Nepali: अब्शालोमले आमासालाई सेनाका नयाँ कप्तान बनाए। आमासाले योआबको ठाउँ लिए। आमासा इश्माएली यित्रका छोरा थिए। आमासाकी आमा अबीगेल सरूयाहकी बहिनी नाहाशकी छोरी थिइन्। सरूया योआबकी आमा थिइन्।
English: Israel and Absalom encamped in the land of Gilead.
Nepali: अब्शालोम र इस्राएलीहरूले गिलादमा छाउनी बसाए।
English: It happened, when David had come to Mahanaim, that Shobi the son of Nahash of Rabbah of the children of Ammon, and Machir the son of Ammiel of Lodebar, and Barzillai the Gileadite of Rogelim,
Nepali: दाऊद महनैम पुगे। शोबी, माकीर र र्बजिलाइहरू त्यस ठाउँमा थिए। (शोबी रब्बाको अम्मोनी नाहाशका छोरा थिए। माकीरचाहि लोदबारको अमीएलका छोरा थिए। र्बजिलाइ गिलादका रोग्लीमबाट थिए।)
English: David numbered the people who were with him, and set captains of thousands and captains of hundreds over them.
Nepali: दाऊदले आफ्ना मानिसहरू गने। तिनले ती मानिसहरूलाई नेतृत्व गर्न 1,000 र 100 को माथि कप्तानहरू छाने।
English: David sent forth the people, a third part under the hand of Joab, and a third part under the hand of Abishai the son of Zeruiah, Joab's brother, and a third part under the hand of Ittai the Gittite. The king said to the people, "I will surely go forth with you myself also."
Nepali: दाऊदले मानिसहरूलाई तीन भागमा छुट्याए। अनि दाऊदले मानिसहरू पठाए। योआबको एक तिहाइ सैनिकहरूलाई नेतृत्व गरे। अर्को तीन भागको एक तिहाई सैनिकहरू योआबका सानो भाइ अबीशैको अधिकारमा थिए अनि तीन भागको अन्तिम तिहाई ईत्तैबाटका गित्तीको अधिकारमा थिए। राजा दाऊदले मानिसहरूलाई भने, “म पनि तिमीहरूसित जानेछु।”
English: But the people said, "You shall not go forth; for if we flee away, they will not care for us; neither if half of us die, will they care for us. But you are worth ten thousand of us. Therefore now it is better that you are ready to help us out of the city."
Nepali: तर मानिसहरूले भने, “होइन! तपाईं हामीसित नजानुहोस्। कारण के हो भने, यदि हामी युद्धभूमिबाट विमुख भयौं भने अब्शालोमका मानिसहरूलाई प्रभाव पर्दैन। यदि हामी आधा नै मर्यौ भने पनि त्यत्ति फरक पर्दैन। तर तपाईं 10,000 को संख्याका हामीभन्दा महत्वपूर्ण हुनुहुन्छ। तपाईं यही शहरमा बस्नु भए असल हुन्छ। यदि हामीलाई दरकार पर्यो भने सहयोग पुर्याउनुहोस्।”
English: The king said to them, "I will do what seems best to you." The king stood beside the gate, and all the people went out by hundreds and by thousands.
Nepali: राजाले मानिसहरूलाई भने, “तिमीहरूलाई जे राम्रो लाग्छ म त्यही गर्छु।” तब राजा द्वारमा खडा भए। फौज अघि बड्यो। सय र हजारको समूहमा तिनीहरू हिडे।
English: The king commanded Joab and Abishai and Ittai, saying, "Deal gently for my sake with the young man, even with Absalom." All the people heard when the king commanded all the captains concerning Absalom.
Nepali: योआब, अबीशै र ईत्तैलाई दाऊदले आदेश दिए। उसले भने, “मेरो खातिर जवान अब्शालोम प्रति दयालू बन्नु।” राजाले कप्तानहरूलाई के भने सैनिकहरूले सबै सुने।
English: So the people went out into the field against Israel: and the battle was in the forest of Ephraim.
Nepali: दाऊदका सैनिकहरूले अब्शालोमका इस्राएलीहरूलाई आक्रमण गरे। तिनीहरूले एप्रैमको जङ्गलभित्र लडाईं गरे।
English: The people of Israel were struck there before the servants of David, and there was a great slaughter there that day of twenty thousand men.
Nepali: दाऊदका सेनाहरूले इस्राएलीहरूलाई परास्त गरे। त्यस दिन 20,000 मानिसहरू मारिए।
English: For the battle was there spread over the surface of all the country; and the forest devoured more people that day than the sword devoured.
Nepali: देशभरि युद्ध फैलियो। तरवारले भन्दा ज्यादा मानिस जङ्गलमा मरे।
English: Absalom happened to meet the servants of David. Absalom was riding on his mule, and the mule went under the thick boughs of a great oak, and his head caught hold of the oak, and he was taken up between the sky and earth; and the mule that was under him went on.
Nepali: अब्शालोमले दाऊदका अधिकारीहरूलाई भेटे। अब्शालोम एउटा खच्चरमा चढेर टाढ भाग्ने चेष्टा गरे। खच्चर बजराठको रूखको हाँगाहरू मुनि भाग्यो। त्यो हाँगो मोटो थियो, अब्शालोमको टाउको हाँगामा अल्झियो। खच्चर लगातार दौडिरह्यो अनि ऊ जमीन माथि हाँगामा झुण्डिए।
English: A certain man saw it, and told Joab, and said, "Behold, I saw Absalom hanging in an oak."
Nepali: एकजना मानिसले यो घटना देखे। उसले योआबलाई भने, “मैले बाजको रूखमा अब्शालोम झुण्डिरहेको देखे।”
English: Joab said to the man who told him, "Behold, you saw it, and why didn't you strike him there to the ground? I would have given you ten pieces of silver, and a sash."
Nepali: योआबले त्यस मानिसलाई भने, “तैंले मारेर त्यसलाई रूखबाट भुइँमा किन झारिनस्? म तँलाई एउटा पेटी र चाँदीको दश टुक्रा दिने थिएँ!”
English: The man said to Joab, "Though I should receive a thousand pieces of silver in my hand, I still wouldn't put forth my hand against the king's son; for in our hearing the king commanded you and Abishai and Ittai, saying, 'Beware that none touch the young man Absalom.'
Nepali: त्यस मानिसले योआबलाइ भने, “यदि मलाई 1,000 चाँदीको टुक्रा दिएको भएता पनि म राजाको छोरालाई केही गर्ने थिइन। कारण राजाले तपाईं अबीशै र इत्तैलाई भएको आदेश हामीले सुन्यौ। राजाले भनेका थिए, ‘नौजवान अब्शालोमलाई चोट नपुर्याउनु।’
English: Otherwise if I had dealt falsely against his life (and there is no matter hidden from the king), then you yourself would have set yourself against me."
Nepali: यदि मैले उसलाई मारेको भए राजाले पत्तो लगाउनु हुने थियो। अनि तपाईं, याओबले, मेरो रक्षागर्नु हुने थिएन।”
