Adhyāya 2
tab noon ke putra yahoshoo ne do bheadiyon ko shaitteem se chupake se bhej diya, aur un se kaha, jakar us desh aur yareeho ko dekho. turant ve chal dia, aur rahab nam kisee veshya ke ghar men jakar so gaae.
2 tab kisee ne yareeho ke raja se kaha, ki aj kee rat kai aek israaelee hamare desh ka bhed lene ko yahan aae huae haain.
3 tab yareeho ke raja ne rahab ke pas yon kahala bheja, ki jo puroosh tere yahan aae haain unhen bahar le a kyonaki ve sare desh ka bhed lene ko aae haain.
4 us sree ne donon purooshaen ko chhpai rakha aur is prakar kaha, ki mere pas kai puroosh aae to the, parantu maain naheen janatee ki ve kahan ke the
5 aur jab andhora hua, aur faattk band hone laga, tab ve nikal gaae mujhe maloom naheen ki ve kahan gaae tum faurtee karake unaka peechha karo to unhen ja pakadoge.
6 us ne unako ghar kee chht par chaddhakar sanai kee lakaadiyon ke neeche chhpai diya tha jo us ne chht par saja kar rakhee thee.
7 ve puroosh to yaradan ka marga le unakee khoj men ghaatt tak chale gaae aur jyon hee unako khojanevale faattk se nikale tyon hee faattk band kiya gaya.
8 aur ye lettne n paae the ki vah sree chht par inake pas jakar
9 in purooshaen se kahane lagee, mujhe to nishchay haai ki yahova ne tum logon ko yah desh diya haai, aur tumhara bhy ham logon ke man men samaya haai, aur is desh ke sab nivasee tumhare karan ghabara rahe haain.
10 kyonaki ham ne suna haai ki yahova ne tumhare misr se nikalane ke samay tumhare samhane lal samudra ka jal sukha diya. aur tum logon ne seehon aur og nam yaradan par rahanevale aemoriyon ke donon rajaon ko satyanash kar dala haai.
11 aur yah sunate hee hamara man pighal gaya, aur tumhare karan kisee ke jee men jee n raha kyonaki tumhara parameshvar yahova upar ke akash ka aur neeche kee prathvee ka parameshvar haai.
12 ab maain ne jo tum par daya kee haai, isaaliye mujh se yahova kee shapath khao ki tum bhee mere pita ke gharane par daya karoge, aur isakee sachchee chinhanee mujhe do,
13 ki tum mere matapita, bhaiyon aur baahinon ko, aur jo kuchh unaka haai un sabhon ko bhee jeevit rakh chhodo, aur ham sabhon ka praan marane se bachaoge.
14 tab un purooshaen ne us se kaha, yaadi too hamaree yah bat kisee par pragatt n kare, to tumhare praan ke badale hamara praan jaae aur jab yahova ham ko yah desh dega, tab ham tere sath krapa aur sachchai se bartav karenge.
15 tab rahab jisaka ghar shaharapanah par bana tha, aur vah vaheen rahatee thee, us ne unako khaidkee se rassee ke bal utarake nagar ke bahar kar diya.
16 aur us ne un se kaha, pahad ko chale jao, aeesa n ho ki khojanevale tum ko paaen isaliye jab tak tumhare khojanevale lautt n aaen tab tak, arthata teen din vaheen chhpai rahata, usake bad apana marga lena.
17 unhon ne us se kaha, jo shapath too ne ham ko khailai haai usake vishay men ham to nirdosh rahenge.
18 tum, jab ham log is desh men aaenge, tab jis khaidkee se too ne ham ko utara haai us men yahee lal rang ke soot kee doree bandha dena aur apane mata pita, bhaiyo, varan apane pita ke gharane ko isee ghar men apane pas ikattha kar rakhna.
19 tab jo koi tere ghar ke dar se bahar nikale, usake koon ka dosh usee ke sir padega, aur ham nirdosh ttharenge: parantu yadi tere sang ghar men rahate huae kisee par kisee ka hath pade, to usake koon ka dosh hamare sir par padega.
20 fir yadi too hamaree yah bat kisee par pragatt kare, to jo shapath too ne ham ko khailai haai us se ham nirbandha ttharenge.
21 us ne kaha, tumhare vachanon ke anusar ho. tab us ne unako vida kiya, aur ve chale gae aur us ne lal rang kee doree ko khaidkee men bandha diya.
22 aur ve jakar pahad tak pahunche, aur vahan khojanevalon ke lauttne tak, arthata teen din tak rahe aur khojanevale unako sare marga men ddoonddhte rahe aur kaheen n paya.
23 tab ve donon puroosh pahad se utare, aur par jakar noon ke putra yahoshoo ke pas pahunchakar jo kuchh un par beeta tha usaka varnn kiya.
24 aur unhon ne yahoshoo se kaha, nisandeh yahova ne vah sara desh hamare hath men kar diya haai fir isake sivay usake sare nivasee hamare karan ghabara rahe haain..
