Adhyāya 7
tab aeleesha ne kaha, yahova ka vachan suno, yahova yon kahata haai, ki kal isee samay shaemaron ke faattk men saa bhr maaida aek shokel men aur do saa jav bhee aek shokel men bikega.
2 tab us saradar ne jisake hath par raja taakiya karata t, parameshvar ke bhkt ko uttar dekar kaha, sun, chahe yahova akash ke jhrokhe khole, taubhee kya aeesee bat ho sakegee? us ne kaha, sun, too yah apanee ankhon se to dekhega, parantu us ann men se kuchh khane n paaega.
3 aur char koddhee faattk ke bahar the ve apas men kahane lage, ham kyon yahan baaitte baaitte mar jaaen?
4 yaadi ham kahe, ki nagar men jaae, to vahan mar jaaenge kyonaki vahan manhagee padee haai, aur jo ham yaheen baaitte rahe, taubhee mar hee jaaenge. to ao ham aram kee sena men pakade jaaen yaadi ve ham ko jilaae rakhen to ham jeeavit rahenge, aur yaadi ve ham ko mar dale, taubhee ham ko marana hee haai.
5 tab ve sanjh ko aram kee chhavanee men jane ko chale, aur aram kee chhavanee kee chhor par pahunchakar kya dekha, ki vahan koi naheen haai.
6 kyonaki prabhu ne aram kee sena ko rathon aur ghaedon kee aur bharee sena kee see ahatt sunai thee, aur ve apas men kahane lage the ki, suno, israaael ke raja ne hittee aur misraee rajaon ko betan par bulavaya haai ki ham par chaddhai karen.
7 isaliye ve sanjh ko uttkar aeese bhag gaa, ki apane dere, ghaede, gadahe, aur chhavanee jaaisee kee taaisee chhod-chhad apana apana praan lekar bhag gaae.
8 to jab ve koddhee chhavanee kee chhor ke deron ke pas pahunche, tab aek dere men ghausakar khaya piya, aur us men se chandee, sona aur vasr le jakar chhpai rakha fir lauttkar doosare dere men ghaus gaae aur us men se bhee le jakar chhpai rakha.
9 tab ve apas men kahane lage, jo ham kar rahe haain vah achchha kam naheen haai, yah anand ke samachar ka din haai, parantu ham kisee ko naheen batate. jo ham pah fattne tak tthare rahen to ham ko dand milega so ab ao ham raja ke gharane ke pas jakar yah bat batala den.
10 tab ve chale aur nagar ke chaukeedaron ko bulakar bataya, ki ham jo aram kee chhavanee men gaa, to kya dekha, ki vahan koi naheen haai, aur manushy kee kuchh ahatt naheen haai, keval bandho hooae ghaede aur gadahe haai, aur dere jaaise ke taaise haain.
11 tab chaukeedaron ne pukar ke rajabhvan ke bheetar samachar diya.
12 aur raja rat hee ko utta, aur apane karmachaariyon se kaha, maain tumhen batata hoo ki araamiyon ne ham se kya kiya haai? ve janate haai, ki ham log bookhe haain is karan ve chhavanee men se maaidan men chhpaine ko yah kahakar gaae haai, ki jab ve nagar se nikalenge, tab ham unako jeevit hee pakadkar nagar men ghausane paaenge.
13 parantu raja ke kisee karmacharee ne uttar dekar kaha, ki jo ghaede tagar men bach rahe haain un men se log panch ghaede le, aur unako bhejakar ham hal jan len. ve to israaael kee sab bheed ke saman haain jo nagar men rah gaae haain varan israaael kee jo bheed mar mitt gai haai ve usee ke saman haain.
14 so unhon ne do rath aur unake ghaede liye, aur raja ne unako aram kee seena ke peechhe bheja aur kaha, jao, dekho.
15 tab ve yaradan tak unake peechhe chale gaa, aur kya dekha, ki poora marga vasren aur patraen se bhra pada haai, jinhen araamiyon ne utavalee ke mare faenk diya tha tab doot lautt aa, aur raja se yah kah sunaya.
16 tab logon ne nikalakar aram ke deron ko loott liya aur yahova ke vachan ke anusar aek saa maaida aek shokel me, aur do saa jav aek shokel men bikane laga.
17 aur raja ne us saradar ko jisake hath par vah takiya karata tha faattk ka adhaikaree ttharaya tab vah faattk men logon ke pavon ke neeche dabakar mar gaya. yah parameshvar ke bhkt ke us vachan ke anusar hua jo us ne raja se usake yahan ane ke yamay kaha tha.
18 parameshvar ke bhkt ne jaaisa raja se yah kaha tha, ki kal isee samay shaemaron ke faattk men do saa jav aek shokel me, aur aek saa maaida aek shokel men bikega, vaaisa hee hua.
19 aur us saradar ne parameshvar ke bhkt ko, uttar dekar kaha tha, ki sun chahe yahova akash men jhrokhe khole taubhee kya aeesee bat ho sakegee? aur us ne kaha tha, sun, too yah apanee ankhon se to dekhega, parantu us ann men se khane n paaega.
20 so usake sath tteek vaaisa hee hua, ataaev vah faattk men logon ke panvon ke neeche dabakar mar gaya.
