Acts 12

1 ಆ ಕಾಲದಲ್ಲಿ ಅರಸನಾದ ಹೆರೋದನು ಸಭೆಯಲ್ಲಿ ಕೆಲವರನ್ನು ಬಾಧಿಸುವದಕ್ಕಾಗಿ ತನ್ನ ಕೈ ಎತ್ತಿ

2 ಯೋಹಾನನ ಸಹೋದರನಾದ ಯಾಕೋಬನನ್ನು ಕತ್ತಿಯಿಂದ ಕೊಲ್ಲಿಸಿದನು.

3 ಇದು ಯೆಹೂದ್ಯರಿಗೆ ಮೆಚ್ಚಿಗೆಯಾಗಿರುವದನ್ನು ಅವನು ನೋಡಿದ್ದರಿಂದ ಪೇತ್ರನನ್ನು ಹಿಡಿಯುವದಕ್ಕಾಗಿ ಮುಂಗೊಂಡನು. (ಆಗ ಅವು ಹುಳಿಯಿಲ್ಲದ ರೊಟ್ಟಿಯ ದಿವಸಗಳಾಗಿದ್ದವು).

4 ಹೀಗೆ ಪಸ್ಕದ ತರುವಾಯ ಜನರ ಮುಂದೆ ತರಬೇಕೆಂಬ ಉದ್ದೇಶ ದಿಂದ ಅವನನ್ನು ಬಂಧಿಸಿ ಸೆರೆಯಲ್ಲಿ ಹಾಕಿಸಿದನು.ಅವನನ್ನು ಕಾಯುವದಕ್ಕಾಗಿ ನಾಲ್ಕು ಚತುಷ್ಟದ ಸೈನಿಕರಿಗೆ ಒಪ್ಪಿಸಿದನು.

5 ಪೇತ್ರನು ಸೆರೆಯಲ್ಲಿದ್ದಾಗ ಸಭೆಯವರು ಅವನಿಗಾಗಿ ದೇವರಿಗೆ ಎಡೆಬಿಡದೆ ಪ್ರಾರ್ಥಿಸುತ್ತಿದ್ದರು.

6 ಹೆರೋದನು ಪೇತ್ರನನ್ನು ಹೊರಗೆ ತರಬೇಕೆಂದಿದ್ದ ಅದೇ ರಾತ್ರಿಯಲ್ಲಿ ಅವನು ಎರಡು ಸರಪಣಿಗಳಿಂದ ಕಟ್ಟಲ್ಪಟ್ಟು ಇಬ್ಬರು ಸೈನಿಕರ ಮಧ್ಯದಲ್ಲಿ ನಿದ್ರೆಮಾಡುತ್ತಿದ್ದನು; ಕಾವಲುಗಾರರು ಬಾಗಿಲ ಮುಂದೆ ನಿಂತು ಸೆರೆಮನೆಯನ್ನು ಕಾಯು ತ್ತಿದ್ದರು.

7 ಆಗ ಇಗೋ, ಕರ್ತನ ದೂತನು ಪೇತ್ರನ ಬಳಿಗೆ ಬಂದಾಗ ಅವನಿದ್ದ ಸೆರೆಮನೆಯಲ್ಲಿ ಬೆಳಕು ಹೊಳೆಯಿತು. ಅವನು ಪೇತ್ರನನ್ನು ಪಕ್ಕೆ ತಟ್ಟಿ ಎಬ್ಬಿಸಿ--ತಟ್ಟನೆ ಏಳು ಅಂದನು. ಆಗಲೇ ಅವನ ಕೈಗಳಿಂದ ಸರಪಣಿಗಳು ಕಳಚಿಬಿದ್ದವು.

8 ಆ ದೂತನು ಅವನಿಗೆ--ನಡುಕಟ್ಟಿಕೊಂಡು ನಿನ್ನ ಕೆರಗಳನ್ನು ಮೆಟ್ಟಿಕೋ ಎಂದು ಹೇಳಲು ಅವನು ಹಾಗೆಯೇ ಮಾಡಿದನು. ಆ ದೂತನು ಅವನಿಗೆ ನಿನ್ನ ಮೇಲಂಗಿ ಯನ್ನು ಹಾಕಿಕೊಂಡು ನನ್ನ ಹಿಂದೆ ಬಾ ಅಂದನು.

9 ಅವನು ಹೊರಗೆ ಬಂದು ಆ ದೂತನ ಹಿಂದೆಯೇ ಹೋಗುತ್ತಾ ಅವನ ಮೂಲಕವಾಗಿ ನಡೆದ ಸಂಗತಿ ನಿಜವಾದದ್ದೆಂದು ತಿಳಿಯದೆ ತಾನು ನೋಡಿದ್ದು ದರ್ಶನವೆಂದು ನೆನಸಿದನು.

10 ಅವನು ಮೊದಲನೆಯ ಎರಡನೆಯ ಕಾವಲುಗಳನ್ನು ದಾಟಿ ಪಟ್ಟಣಕ್ಕೆ ಹೋಗುವ ಕಬ್ಬಿಣದ ಬಾಗಿಲಿಗೆ ಬಂದಾಗ ಅದು ತನ್ನಷ್ಟಕ್ಕೆ ತಾನೇ ಅವರಿಗೆ ತೆರೆಯಿತು. ಅವರು ಹೊರಗೆ ಬಂದು ಒಂದು ಬೀದಿಯನ್ನು ದಾಟಿದರು; ಕೂಡಲೆ ಆ ದೂತನು ಅವನನ್ನು ಬಿಟ್ಟು ಹೊರಟುಹೋದನು.

11 ಆಗ ಪೇತ್ರನು ಎಚ್ಚರವಾಗಿ-- ಕರ್ತನು ತನ್ನ ದೂತನನ್ನು ಕಳುಹಿಸಿ ಹೆರೋದನ ಕೈಯಿಂದಲೂ ಯೆಹೂದ್ಯ ಜನರು ನನಗೆ ಮಾಡಬೇಕೆಂದಿದ್ದ ಎಲ್ಲವುಗಳಿಂದಲೂ ನನ್ನನ್ನು ಬಿಡಿಸಿದನೆಂದು ನನಗೀಗ ನಿಶ್ಚಯವಾಗಿ ತಿಳಿದುಬಂದಿದೆ ಅಂದುಕೊಂಡನು.

12 ತರುವಾಯ ಅವನು ಯೋಚನೆ ಮಾಡಿಕೊಂಡು ಮಾರ್ಕನೆನಿಸಕೊಳ್ಳುವ ಯೋಹಾನನ ತಾಯಿಯಾದ ಮರಿಯಳ ಮನೆಗೆ ಬಂದನು. ಅಲ್ಲಿ ಅನೇಕರು ಕೂಡಿಬಂದು ಪ್ರಾರ್ಥನೆ ಮಾಡುತ್ತಿದ್ದರು.

13 ಪೇತ್ರನು ದ್ವಾರದ ಬಾಗಿಲನ್ನು ತಟ್ಟಿದಾಗ ರೋದೆ ಎಂಬ ಒಬ್ಬ ಹುಡುಗಿಯು ಕೇಳುವದಕ್ಕೆ ಬಂದಳು.

14 ಅವಳು ಪೇತ್ರನ ಧ್ವನಿಯನ್ನು ತಿಳಿದಾಗ ಸಂತೋಷದ ನಿಮಿತ್ತದಿಂದಲೇ ಬಾಗಿಲನ್ನು ತೆರೆಯದೆ ಒಳಕ್ಕೆ ಓಡಿಹೋಗಿ--ಪೇತ್ರನು ಬಾಗಿಲ ಮುಂದೆ ನಿಂತಿದ್ದಾನೆ ಎಂದು ಹೇಳಿದಳು.

15 ಅವರು ಅವಳಿಗೆ--ನಿನಗೆ ಹುಚ್ಚು ಹಿಡಿದದೆ ಎಂದು ಹೇಳಿದರು. ಆದರೆ ಅವಳು ತಾನು ಹೇಳಿದಂತೆಯೇ ಅದೆ ಎಂದು ದೃಢವಾಗಿ ಹೇಳಿದ್ದಕ್ಕೆ ಅವರು--ಅವನು ಪೇತ್ರನ ದೂತನು ಅಂದರು.

16 ಅಷ್ಟರಲ್ಲಿ ಪೇತ್ರನು ಇನ್ನೂ ತಟ್ಟುತ್ತಾ ಇರಲು ಅವರು ಬಾಗಿಲನ್ನು ತೆರೆದು ಅವನನ್ನು ಕಂಡು ಬೆರಗಾದರು.

17 ಅವನು ಸುಮ್ಮನಿರ್ರಿ ಎಂದು ಅವರಿಗೆ ಕೈಸನ್ನೆ ಮಾಡಿ ತನ್ನನ್ನು ಕರ್ತನು ಸೆರೆಮನೆಯೊಳಗಿಂದ ಹೊರಗೆ ಕರಕೊಂಡು ಬಂದ ರೀತಿಯನ್ನು ವಿವರಿಸಿ ಈ ಸಂಗತಿಗಳನ್ನು ಯಾಕೋಬನಿಗೂ ಸಹೋದರ ರಿಗೂ ತಿಳಿಸಿರೆಂದು ಹೇಳಿ ಬೇರೆ ಸ್ಥಳಕ್ಕೆ ಹೊರಟು ಹೋದನು.

18 ಬೆಳಗಾದ ಮೇಲೆ ಪೇತ್ರನು ಏನಾದ ನೆಂದು ಸೈನಿಕರಲ್ಲಿ ಬಹಳ ಕಳವಳ ಉಂಟಾಯಿತು.

19 ಹೆರೋದನು ಅವನನ್ನು ಹುಡುಕಿಸಿ ಅವನು ಸಿಕ್ಕಲಿಲ್ಲವಾದದರಿಂದ ಕಾವಲುಗಾರರನ್ನು ವಿಚಾರಣೆ ಮಾಡಿ ಅವರಿಗೆ ಮರಣ ದಂಡನೆಯನ್ನು ವಿಧಿಸಿದನು. ಬಳಿಕ ಅವನು ಯೂದಾಯದಿಂದ ಕೈಸರೈಯಕ್ಕೆ ಹೋಗಿ ಅಲ್ಲಿ ಇದ್ದನು.

20 ತೂರ್‌ ಸೀದೋನ್‌ ಪಟ್ಟಣಗಳವರು ತಮ್ಮ ಮೇಲೆ ಹೆರೋದನು ಬಹಳವಾಗಿ ಕೋಪಿಸಿ ಕೊಂಡಿರುವದರಿಂದ ಅವರು ಒಮ್ಮನಸ್ಸಿನಿಂದ ಅವನ ಬಳಿಗೆ ಬಂದು ಅರಸನ ಮನೆಯ ಮೇಲಣ ಅಧಿಕಾರಿಯಾದ ಬ್ಲಾಸ್ತನನ್ನು ತಮ್ಮ ಸ್ನೇಹಿತನನ್ನಾಗಿ ಮಾಡಿಕೊಂಡು ಅರಸನು ಸಮಾಧಾನವಾಗಬೇಕೆಂದು ಅಪೇಕ್ಷೆಪಟ್ಟರು. ಯಾ

21 ಗೊತ್ತು ಮಾಡಿದ ಒಂದು ದಿನದಲ್ಲಿ ಹೆರೋದನು ರಾಜವಸ್ತ್ರವನ್ನು ಧರಿಸಿದವನಾಗಿ ತನ್ನ ಸಿಂಹಾಸನದ ಮೇಲೆ ಕೂತುಕೊಂಡು ಅವರಿಗೆ ಉಪನ್ಯಾಸ ಮಾಡಿ ದನು.

22 ಆಗ ಜನರು--ಇದು ಮನುಷ್ಯನ ಸ್ವರವಲ್ಲ , ದೇವರ ಸ್ವರವೇ ಎಂದು ಅರ್ಭಟಿಸಿದರು.

23 ಅವನು ದೇವರಿಗೆ ಮಹಿಮೆ ಸಲ್ಲಿಸದೆ ಹೋದದರಿಂದ ಕರ್ತನ ದೂತನು ಆ ಕ್ಷಣದಲ್ಲೇ ಅವನನ್ನು ಹೊಡೆದನು; ಆಗ ಅವನನ್ನು ಹುಳಗಳು ತಿಂದದ್ದರಿಂದ ಅವನು ಪ್ರಾಣ ಬಿಟ್ಟನು.

24 ಆದರೆ ದೇವರ ವಾಕ್ಯವು ಹಬ್ಬಿ ಹೆಚ್ಚುತ್ತಾ ಬಂತು.

25 ಬಾರ್ನಬ ಸೌಲರು ತಮ್ಮ ಸೇವೆ ತೀರಿಸಿಕೊಂಡು ಮಾರ್ಕನೆನಿಸಿಕೊಳ್ಳುವ ಯೋಹಾನ ನನ್ನು ಕರಕೊಂಡು ಯೆರೂಸಲೇಮಿನಿಂದ ಹಿಂತಿರುಗಿ ಬಂದರು.

1 Now about that time Herod the king stretched forth his hands to vex certain of the church.

2 And he killed James the brother of John with the sword.

3 And because he saw it pleased the Jews, he proceeded further to take Peter also. (Then were the days of unleavened bread.)

4 And when he had apprehended him, he put him in prison, and delivered him to four quaternions of soldiers to keep him; intending after Easter to bring him forth to the people.

5 Peter therefore was kept in prison: but prayer was made without ceasing of the church unto God for him.

6 And when Herod would have brought him forth, the same night Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains: and the keepers before the door kept the prison.

7 And, behold, the angel of the Lord came upon him, and a light shined in the prison: and he smote Peter on the side, and raised him up, saying, Arise up quickly. And his chains fell off from his hands.

8 And the angel said unto him, Gird thyself, and bind on thy sandals. And so he did. And he saith unto him, Cast thy garment about thee, and follow me.

9 And he went out, and followed him; and wist not that it was true which was done by the angel; but thought he saw a vision.

10 When they were past the first and the second ward, they came unto the iron gate that leadeth unto the city; which opened to them of his own accord: and they went out, and passed on through one street; and forthwith the angel departed from him.

11 And when Peter was come to himself, he said, Now I know of a surety, that the Lord hath sent his angel, and hath delivered me out of the hand of Herod, and from all the expectation of the people of the Jews.

12 And when he had considered the thing, he came to the house of Mary the mother of John, whose surname was Mark; where many were gathered together praying.

13 And as Peter knocked at the door of the gate, a damsel came to hearken, named Rhoda.

14 And when she knew Peter’s voice, she opened not the gate for gladness, but ran in, and told how Peter stood before the gate.

15 And they said unto her, Thou art mad. But she constantly affirmed that it was even so. Then said they, It is his angel.

16 But Peter continued knocking: and when they had opened the door, and saw him, they were astonished.

17 But he, beckoning unto them with the hand to hold their peace, declared unto them how the Lord had brought him out of the prison. And he said, Go shew these things unto James, and to the brethren. And he departed, and went into another place.

18 Now as soon as it was day, there was no small stir among the soldiers, what was become of Peter.

19 And when Herod had sought for him, and found him not, he examined the keepers, and commanded that they should be put to death. And he went down from Judaea to Caesarea, and there abode.

20 And Herod was highly displeased with them of Tyre and Sidon: but they came with one accord to him, and, having made Blastus the king’s chamberlain their friend, desired peace; because their country was nourished by the king’s country.

21 And upon a set day Herod, arrayed in royal apparel, sat upon his throne, and made an oration unto them.

22 And the people gave a shout, saying, It is the voice of a god, and not of a man.

23 And immediately the angel of the Lord smote him, because he gave not God the glory: and he was eaten of worms, and gave up the ghost.

24 But the word of God grew and multiplied.

25 And Barnabas and Saul returned from Jerusalem, when they had fulfilled their ministry, and took with them John, whose surname was Mark.

2 Samuel 3 in Tamil and English

1 ଏହିପରି ଭାବରେ, ଦୀର୍ଘଦିନ ଧରି ଦାଉଦ ଓ ଶାଉଲଙ୍କ ପରିବାର ମଧିଅରେ କ୍ରମାଗତ ୟକ୍ସ୍ଟଦ୍ଧ ଗ୍ଭଲିଲା। ଦାଉଦ ଧି ରେ ଧି ରେ ଶକ୍ତିଶାଳୀ ହବୋକକ୍ସ୍ଟ ଲାଗିଲେ ଏବଂ ଶାଉଲର ପରିବାର, ଦିନକକ୍ସ୍ଟ ଦିନ ଦୁର୍ବଳ ହବୋକକ୍ସ୍ଟ ଲାଗିଲା।
Now there was long war between the house of Saul and the house of David: but David waxed stronger and stronger, and the house of Saul waxed weaker and weaker.

2 ଦାଉଦଙ୍କର ଅନକେ ପକ୍ସ୍ଟତ୍ର ହିବ୍ରୋଣ ରେ ଜନ୍ମଲାଭ କଲେ। ତାଙ୍କର ପ୍ରଥମ ପକ୍ସ୍ଟତ୍ର ଥିଲେ ଅମ୍ନୋନ୍, ୟିଷ୍ରିଯଲେୀଯାର ତାଙ୍କର ସ୍ତ୍ରୀ ଅହୀନୋଯମଠାରକ୍ସ୍ଟ ଜନ୍ମ ହେଲ।
And unto David were sons born in Hebron: and his firstborn was Amnon, of Ahinoam the Jezreelitess;

3 କର୍ମିଲୀଯ ନାବଲ୍ର ସ୍ତ୍ରୀ ଅବୀଗଲ୍ଙ୍କଠାରକ୍ସ୍ଟ ଜନ୍ମ ହେଲ ଦ୍ବିତୀୟ ପକ୍ସ୍ଟତ୍ର କିଲାବ୍ ଏବଂ ତୃତୀୟ ପକ୍ସ୍ଟତ୍ର ହେଲ ଅବ୍ଶାଲୋମ୍, ସେ ଗଶୂରର ରାଜା ତଲ୍ମଯର କନ୍ଯା ମାଖାରର ପକ୍ସ୍ଟତ୍ର।
And his second, Chileab, of Abigail the wife of Nabal the Carmelite; and the third, Absalom the son of Maacah the daughter of Talmai king of Geshur;

4 ଚତକ୍ସ୍ଟର୍ଥ ପକ୍ସ୍ଟତ୍ର ଜନ୍ମ ହେଲ, ତାଙ୍କର ନାମ ଅଦୋନୀଯ, ଅଦୋନୀଯର ମାତା ହେଲ, ହଗୀତ୍ ଏବଂ ପଞ୍ଚମ ପକ୍ସ୍ଟତ୍ର ହେଲ ଶଫଟୀଯ ସେ ଅବିଟଲର ପକ୍ସ୍ଟତ୍ର।
And the fourth, Adonijah the son of Haggith; and the fifth, Shephatiah the son of Abital;

5 ଷଷ୍ଠ ପକ୍ସ୍ଟତ୍ର ହେଲ, ୟିନ୍ତ୍ରିଯମ୍। ସେ ଦାଉଦଙ୍କର ସ୍ତ୍ରୀ ଇଗ୍ଲାର ପକ୍ସ୍ଟତ୍ର। ଏହିପରି ଛଅଟି ପକ୍ସ୍ଟତ୍ର ଦାଉଦଙ୍କର ହିବ୍ରୋଣ ରେ ଜନ୍ମ ହେଲ।
And the sixth, Ithream, by Eglah David’s wife. These were born to David in Hebron.

6 ଶାଉଲ ବଂଶ ଓ ଦାଉଦ ବଂଶ ୟକ୍ସ୍ଟଦ୍ଧ ଲାଗିବା ସମୟରେ ଅବନର ଶାଉଲଙ୍କ ଗୃହ ମଧିଅରେ ନିଜକକ୍ସ୍ଟ ବଳବାନ୍ କଲା।
And it came to pass, while there was war between the house of Saul and the house of David, that Abner made himself strong for the house of Saul.

7 ଶାଉଲଙ୍କର ଜଣେ ଉପପତ୍ନୀ ଥିଲା, ଯାହାର ନାମ ରିସ୍ପା, ସେ ଅଯାର କନ୍ଯା ଥିଲା। ଇଶ୍ବୋଶତ୍ ଅବନରକକ୍ସ୍ଟ କହିଲେ, ତୁମ୍ଭେ କାହିଁକି ମାରେ ପିତାଙ୍କର ଉପପତ୍ନୀଙ୍କ ସହିତ ୟୌନ ସଐର୍କ ରଖିଛ?
And Saul had a concubine, whose name was Rizpah, the daughter of Aiah: and Ish-bosheth said to Abner, Wherefore hast thou gone in unto my father’s concubine?

8 ଅବନର ଇଶ୍ବୋଶତର କଥା ଶକ୍ସ୍ଟଣି ଅତି ରାଗ ରେ କହିଲା, ମୁ ତ ତକ୍ସ୍ଟମ୍ଭ ପିତା ଶାଉଲ ବଂଶକକ୍ସ୍ଟ ଓ ତାଙ୍କର ଭାଇ ବନ୍ଧକ୍ସ୍ଟମାନଙ୍କୁ ଦୟା କରୁଅଛି। ମୁ ମଧ୍ଯ ତୁମ୍ଭକୁ ଦାଉଦ ହସ୍ତ ରେ ସମର୍ପଣ କରିନାହିଁ। ତଥାପି ତୁମ୍ଭେ ଆଜି ଏହି ସ୍ତ୍ରୀ ବିଷଯ ରେ ଅପରାଧ ମାେ ଉପରେ ଆରୋପ କରୁଅଛ।
Then was Abner very wroth for the words of Ish-bosheth, and said, Am I a dog’s head, which against Judah do shew kindness this day unto the house of Saul thy father, to his brethren, and to his friends, and have not delivered thee into the hand of David, that thou chargest me to day with a fault concerning this woman?

9 ମୁ ବର୍ତ୍ତମାନ ଏହି ପ୍ରତିଜ୍ଞା କରୁଅଛି। ମୁ ବର୍ତ୍ତମାନ ନିଶ୍ଚିଚ ହେଉଅଛି ଯେ, ପରମେଶ୍ବର ଯାହା କହିଥିଲେ, ତାହା ଘଟିବାକକ୍ସ୍ଟ ଯାଉଛି। ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ କହିଥିଲେ, ଯେ ସେ ଶାଉଲ ବଂଶଠାରକ୍ସ୍ଟ ରାଜ ସିଂହାସନ ନଇେ ଦାଉଦଙ୍କକ୍ସ୍ଟ ଦବେେ।
So do God to Abner, and more also, except, as the Lord hath sworn to David, even so I do to him;

10 ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ ଦାଉଦଙ୍କକ୍ସ୍ଟ ୟିହକ୍ସ୍ଟଦା ଏବଂ ଇଶ୍ରାୟେଲର ରାଜା କରିବେ। ସେ ଦାନଠାରକ୍ସ୍ଟ ବେର୍ଶବୋ ପର୍ୟ୍ଯନ୍ତ ଶାସନ କରିବେ। ଏବଂ ମୁ ଭାବକ୍ସ୍ଟଛି, ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ ମାେ ଉପରେ ଅନ୍ଯାଯ କରିବେ ଯଦି ମୁ ତାହା ନକରେ।
To translate the kingdom from the house of Saul, and to set up the throne of David over Israel and over Judah, from Dan even to Beer-sheba.

11 ଇଶ୍ବୋଶତ ଅତ୍ଯନ୍ତ ଭୟ ରେ ସବୁ କଥା ଅବନରକକ୍ସ୍ଟ କହିପାରି ନଥିଲା।
And he could not answer Abner a word again, because he feared him.

12 ଅବନର ଦାଉଦଙ୍କ ନିକଟକକ୍ସ୍ଟ ଦୂତଗଣ ପଠାଇଲେ ଏବଂ କହିଲେ, ଏ ଦେଶକକ୍ସ୍ଟ କିଏ ଶାସନ କରିବା ଯୋଗ୍ଯ ବ୍ଯକ୍ତି ବୋଲି ତୁମ୍ଭେ ଭାବକ୍ସ୍ଟଛ? ମାେ ସହିତ ତୁମ୍ଭେ ଏକ ଚକ୍ସ୍ଟକ୍ତି କର ଏବଂ ସମଗ୍ର ଇଶ୍ରାୟେଲ ଉପରେ ତୁମ୍ଭେ ରାଜତ୍ବ କରିବା ପାଇଁ ମୁ ତୁମ୍ଭକୁ ସାହାୟ୍ଯ କରିବି।
And Abner sent messengers to David on his behalf, saying, Whose is the land? saying also, Make thy league with me, and, behold, my hand shall be with thee, to bring about all Israel unto thee.

13 ଦାଉଦ କହିଲେ, ଉତ୍ତମ, ମୁ ତକ୍ସ୍ଟମ୍ଭ ସହିତ ଚକ୍ସ୍ଟକ୍ତି କରୁଅଛି। କିନ୍ତୁ ମୁ ତୁମ୍ଭକୁ ଗୋଟିଏ କଥା ପଗ୍ଭରିବି, ତୁମ୍ଭେ ଶାଉଲଙ୍କର କନ୍ଯା ମୀଖଲକକ୍ସ୍ଟ ମାେ ସମ୍ମକ୍ସ୍ଟଖକକ୍ସ୍ଟ ନ ଆଣିବା ପର୍ୟ୍ଯନ୍ତ ମୁ ତୁମ୍ଭକୁ ସାକ୍ଷାତ କରିବି ନାହିଁ।
And he said, Well; I will make a league with thee: but one thing I require of thee, that is, Thou shalt not see my face, except thou first bring Michal Saul’s daughter, when thou comest to see my face.

14 ଦାଉଦ ଶାଉଲଙ୍କର ପକ୍ସ୍ଟତ୍ର ଈଶ୍ବୋଶତଙ୍କ ନିକଟକକ୍ସ୍ଟ ଏକ ଦୂତ ପଠାଇ କହିଲେ, ମାରେ ସ୍ତ୍ରୀ ମୀଖଲକକ୍ସ୍ଟ ମାେତେ ଫରୋଇ ଦିଅ। ଯେ ହତେକ୍ସ୍ଟ ମୁ ତାକକ୍ସ୍ଟ ପାଇବା ପାଇଁ 100 ଜଣ ପଲେଷ୍ଟୀୟଙ୍କକ୍ସ୍ଟ ହତ୍ଯା କରିଛି
And David sent messengers to Ish-bosheth Saul’s son, saying, Deliver me my wife Michal, which I espoused to me for an hundred foreskins of the Philistines.

15 ଇଶ୍ବୋଶତ୍ ଲୋକ ପଠାଇ ଲଯିଶର ପକ୍ସ୍ଟତ୍ର ପଲ୍ଟିଯେଲ୍ ନାମକ ତାହାର ସ୍ବାମୀ ନିକଟରକ୍ସ୍ଟ ମୀଖଲକକ୍ସ୍ଟ ନଲୋ।
And Ish-bosheth sent, and took her from her husband, even from Phaltiel the son of Laish.

16 ତା'ର ସ୍ବାମୀ ରୋଦନ କଲା ଏବଂ ବହକ୍ସ୍ଟରୀମ ପର୍ୟ୍ଯନ୍ତ ତାକକ୍ସ୍ଟ ଅନକ୍ସ୍ଟସରଣ କଲା। ତା'ପରେ ଅବନର ପଲଟିଯଲଙ୍କେକ୍ସ୍ଟ କହିଲା, ୟାଅ, ଫରେିୟାଅ, ତା'ପରେ ସେ ଫରେିଗଲା।
And her husband went with her along weeping behind her to Bahurim. Then said Abner unto him, Go, return. And he returned.

17 ଅବ୍ନର ଏହି ବାର୍ତ୍ତା ଇଶ୍ରାୟେଲର ନେତାଙ୍କ ପାଖକକ୍ସ୍ଟ ପଠାଇଲେ। ସେ କହିଲେ, ତୁମ୍ଭମାନେେ ଦାଉଦଙ୍କକ୍ସ୍ଟ ରାଜା କରିବା ପାଇଁ ଅପେକ୍ଷା କରି ଆସକ୍ସ୍ଟଅଛି।
And Abner had communication with the elders of Israel, saying, Ye sought for David in times past to be king over you:

18 ବର୍ତ୍ତମାନ ଏହା କର, ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ ଦାଉଦଙ୍କ ବିଷଯ ରେ କହିଥିଲେ ଯେତବେେଳେ ସେ କହିଲେ, 'ମୁ ମାରେ ଇଶ୍ରାୟେଲର ଲୋକମାନଙ୍କୁ ପଲେଷ୍ଟୀୟମାନଙ୍କଠାରକ୍ସ୍ଟ ରକ୍ଷା କରିବି ଏବଂ ମୁ ସମାନଙ୍କେୁ ସମାନଙ୍କେର ଅନ୍ୟ ସମସ୍ତ ଶତୃଙ୍କଠାରକ୍ସ୍ଟ ମଧ୍ଯ ରକ୍ଷା କରିବି। ମୁ ଏହା ମାରେ ପ୍ରିଯ ଦାସ ଦାଉଦଙ୍କ ଦ୍ବାରା ହିଁ କରିବି।'
Now then do it: for the Lord hath spoken of David, saying, By the hand of my servant David I will save my people Israel out of the hand of the Philistines, and out of the hand of all their enemies.

19 ଅବନର ଏହିସବୁ କଥାଗକ୍ସ୍ଟଡିକ ଦାଉଦଙ୍କକ୍ସ୍ଟ ହିବ୍ରୋଣଠା ରେ କହିଲେ। ଏବଂ ବିନ୍ଯାମୀନ ବଂଶଧରକକ୍ସ୍ଟ କହିଲେ। ଅବନରଙ୍କର ଏହିକଥା ଇଶ୍ରାୟେଲର ଲୋକମାନଙ୍କୁ ଓ ବିନ୍ଯାମୀନ ପରିବାରବର୍ଗ ଲୋକମାନଙ୍କୁ ଶୁଣିବାକୁ ଭଲ ଲାଗିଲା।
And Abner also spake in the ears of Benjamin: and Abner went also to speak in the ears of David in Hebron all that seemed good to Israel, and that seemed good to the whole house of Benjamin.

20 ତା'ପରେ ଅବ୍ନର ଦାଉଦଙ୍କ ପାଖକକ୍ସ୍ଟ ହିବ୍ରୋଣକକ୍ସ୍ଟ ଆସିଲେ। ଅବ୍ନର ତାଙ୍କ ସହିତ କୋଡିଏ ଜଣ ଲୋକଙ୍କକ୍ସ୍ଟ ସାଙ୍ଗ ରେ ଆଣିଥିଲେ। ଅବନର ଓ ତାଙ୍କ ସହିତ ଆସିଥିବା ଲୋକମାନଙ୍କୁ ଏକ ଭୋଜି ଦେଲେ।
So Abner came to David to Hebron, and twenty men with him. And David made Abner and the men that were with him a feast.

21 ଅବନର ଦାଉଦଙ୍କକ୍ସ୍ଟ କହିଲେ, ହେ ମାରେ ପ୍ରଭକ୍ସ୍ଟ ମହାରାଜ, ମାେତେ ୟିବାକକ୍ସ୍ଟ ଦିଅ, ଏବଂ ସମସ୍ତ ଇଶ୍ରାୟେଲୀୟମାନଙ୍କୁ ତକ୍ସ୍ଟମ୍ଭ ସମ୍ମକ୍ସ୍ଟଖକକ୍ସ୍ଟ ଆଣିବାକକ୍ସ୍ଟ ଦିଅ। ତା'ପରେ ସମାନେେ ତକ୍ସ୍ଟମ୍ଭ ସମ୍ମକ୍ସ୍ଟଖ ରେ ଏକ ଚକ୍ସ୍ଟକ୍ତି କରିବେ। ଏବଂ ଆପଣ ସମଗ୍ର ଇଶ୍ରାୟେଲର ରାଜା ହବେେ। ଏବଂ ଆପଣଙ୍କ ଇଛା ମତେ ରାଜତ୍ବ କରିବେ। ତେଣୁ ଦାଉଦ ଅବନରକକ୍ସ୍ଟ ୟିବାକକ୍ସ୍ଟ ଅନକ୍ସ୍ଟମତି ଦେଲେ ଏବଂ ଅବନର ଶାନ୍ତି ରେ ଉକ୍ତ ସ୍ଥାନ ପରିତ୍ଯାଗ କଲେ।
And Abner said unto David, I will arise and go, and will gather all Israel unto my lord the king, that they may make a league with thee, and that thou mayest reign over all that thine heart desireth. And David sent Abner away; and he went in peace.

22 ୟୋଯାବ୍ ଏବଂ ଦାଉଦଙ୍କର ଉଚ୍ଚପଦସ୍ଥ ସାମରୀକ ପଦାଧିକାରୀମାନେ ଯୁଦ୍ଧରୁ ଫରେିଲେ। ଏବଂ ସମାନେେ ସମାନଙ୍କେ ସହିତ ଶତୃମାନଙ୍କଠାରକ୍ସ୍ଟ ବହକ୍ସ୍ଟ ମୂଲ୍ଯବାନ ପଦାର୍ଥ ସଙ୍ଗ ରେ ଆଣିଥିଲେ। ଅବ୍ନର ହିବ୍ରୋଣ ରେ ସେତବେେଳେ ଦାଉଦଙ୍କ ସଙ୍ଗ ରେ ନ ଥିଲେ। କାରଣ ସେ ତାଙ୍କୁ ୟିବାକକ୍ସ୍ଟ ଦଇେଥିବାରକ୍ସ୍ଟ ସେ ସଠାେରକ୍ସ୍ଟ ଶାନ୍ତି ରେ ସ୍ଥାନ ପରିତ୍ଯାଗ କରିଥିଲେ।
And, behold, the servants of David and Joab came from pursuing a troop, and brought in a great spoil with them: but Abner was not with David in Hebron; for he had sent him away, and he was gone in peace.

23 ଯୋୟାବ ଓ ତାଙ୍କର ସୈନ୍ଯମାନେ ହିବ୍ରୋଣଠା ରେ ପହଁଞ୍ଚିଲେ। ସୈନ୍ଯମାନେ ଯୋୟାବକକ୍ସ୍ଟ କହିଲେ, ନରର ପକ୍ସ୍ଟତ୍ର ଅବନର ଦାଉଦଙ୍କ ନିକଟକକ୍ସ୍ଟ ଆସିଥିଲା ଓ ଦାଉଦ ଅବନରକକ୍ସ୍ଟ ଶାନ୍ତି ରେ ୟିବାକକ୍ସ୍ଟ ଦେଲେ। ସେଥିପାଇଁ ସେ ନିରାପଦ ରେ ଫରେିଗଲା।
When Joab and all the host that was with him were come, they told Joab, saying, Abner the son of Ner came to the king, and he hath sent him away, and he is gone in peace.

24 ଯୋୟାବ ରାଜାଙ୍କ ସମ୍ମକ୍ସ୍ଟଖକକ୍ସ୍ଟ ଆସିଲେ ଏବଂ ପଚାରିଲେ, ତୁମ୍ଭେ କ'ଣ କଲ? ଅବ୍ନର ଆପଣଙ୍କ ନିକଟକକ୍ସ୍ଟ ଆସିଥିଲା, କିନ୍ତୁ ଆପଣ ତାକକ୍ସ୍ଟ ଆଘାତ ନ କରି ପଠାଇ ଦେଲେ।
Then Joab came to the king, and said, What hast thou done? behold, Abner came unto thee; why is it that thou hast sent him away, and he is quite gone?

25 ଆପଣ ଜାଣନ୍ତି ଅବ୍ନର ହେଉଛି ନରର ପକ୍ସ୍ଟତ୍ର, ଆପଣ ଜାଣନ୍ତି ଯେ, ସେ ଆପଣଙ୍କ ପାଖକକ୍ସ୍ଟ ଛଳନା କରିବାକୁ ଆସିଥିଲା ଓ ଆପଣ କ'ଣ କରୁଥିଲେ ତାହା ଖାଜେିବାକକ୍ସ୍ଟ ସେ ଆସିଥିଲା।
Thou knowest Abner the son of Ner, that he came to deceive thee, and to know thy going out and thy coming in, and to know all that thou doest.

26 ଯୋୟାବ ଦାଉଦଙ୍କ ନିକଟରକ୍ସ୍ଟ ଆସିଲା ଏବଂ ସିରା ନିକଟରେ ଥିବା ଅବ୍ନରଙ୍କ ନିକଟକକ୍ସ୍ଟ ଦୂତ ପଠାଇଲେ। ଦୂତଗଣ ସିରାର କୂଅ ନିକଟରକ୍ସ୍ଟ ଅବନରକକ୍ସ୍ଟ ଫରୋଇ ଆଣିଲା। କିନ୍ତୁ ଏକଥା ଦାଉଦଙ୍କକ୍ସ୍ଟ ଅଜଣା ଥିଲା।
And when Joab was come out from David, he sent messengers after Abner, which brought him again from the well of Sirah: but David knew it not.

27 ଯେତବେେଳେ ଅବ୍ନର ହିବ୍ରୋଣଠା ରେ ପହଁଞ୍ଚିଲେ। ଯୋୟାବ ତାଙ୍କ ସହିତ ନିରୋଳା ରେ କଥାବାର୍ତ୍ତା ପାଇଁ ତାଙ୍କୁ ନଗର ଦ୍ବାର ଭିତରକକ୍ସ୍ଟ ନଇଗେଲେ। ଏବଂ ଯୋୟାବ ଅବ୍ନରକକ୍ସ୍ଟ ସହେିଠା ରେ ତାଙ୍କ ପଟେ ରେ ଖଡ୍ଗ ଭୂଷି ମାରି ଦେଲେ। ଅବ୍ନର ଯୋୟାବର ଭାଇ ଅସା ହେଲକକ୍ସ୍ଟ ହତ୍ଯା କରିଥିଲେ। ତେଣୁ ଯୋୟାବ ଅବ୍ନରକକ୍ସ୍ଟ ହତ୍ଯା କଲେ।
And when Abner was returned to Hebron, Joab took him aside in the gate to speak with him quietly, and smote him there under the fifth rib, that he died, for the blood of Asahel his brother.

28 ଏହାପରେ ଦାଉଦ ଏକଥା ଜାଣିବାକକ୍ସ୍ଟ ପାଇଲେ, ଏବଂ କହିଲେ, ନରର ପକ୍ସ୍ଟତ୍ର ଅବ୍ନର ରକ୍ତପାତ ବିଷଯ ରେ ସବୁ ବେଳେ ମୁ ଓ ମାରେରାଜ୍ଯ ନିର୍ଦ୍ ଦୋଷୀ। ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ ଏହି ବିଷଯ ରେ ଜାଣନ୍ତି।
And afterward when David heard it, he said, I and my kingdom are guiltless before the Lord for ever from the blood of Abner the son of Ner:

29 ଯୋୟାବ ଏବଂ ତାଙ୍କର ପରିବାର ଏଥିପାଇଁ ଦାଯୀ ଏବଂ ମୁ ଭାବକ୍ସ୍ଟଛି ତାଙ୍କର ସମସ୍ତ ପରିବାରବର୍ଗ ଦୋଷୀ। ତାଙ୍କ ପରିବାରବର୍ଗ ସମସ୍ତେ କକ୍ସ୍ଟଷ୍ଠରୋଗ ରେ ଆକ୍ରାନ୍ତ ହବେ, ଅଭାବରେ ରହିବେ ଓ ୟକ୍ସ୍ଟଦ୍ଧ ରେ ହତ ହବେ।
Let it rest on the head of Joab, and on all his father’s house; and let there not fail from the house of Joab one that hath an issue, or that is a leper, or that leaneth on a staff, or that falleth on the sword, or that lacketh bread.

30 ଯୋୟାବ ଓ ତା'ର ଭାଇ ଅବୀଶଯ ଅବ୍ନରକକ୍ସ୍ଟ ହତ୍ଯା କଲେ, କାରଣ ଅବ୍ନର ସମାନଙ୍କେର ଭାଇ ଅସା ହେଲକକ୍ସ୍ଟ ଗିବିଯା ୟକ୍ସ୍ଟଦ୍ଧ ରେ ହତ୍ଯା କରିଥିଲେ।
So Joab and Abishai his brother slew Abner, because he had slain their brother Asahel at Gibeon in the battle.

31 ଦାଉଦ ଯୋୟାବ ଓ ତାଙ୍କ ସହିତ ଥିବା ସମସ୍ତ ଲୋକଙ୍କକ୍ସ୍ଟ କହିଲେ, ତୁମ୍ଭର ବସ୍ତ୍ର ଚିରିଦିଅ ଓ ସମସ୍ତେ ଦକ୍ସ୍ଟଃଖଦ ବସ୍ତ୍ର ପିନ୍ଧ, ଅବ୍ନର ପାଇଁ ରୋଦନ କର।
And David said to Joab, and to all the people that were with him, Rend your clothes, and gird you with sackcloth, and mourn before Abner. And king David himself followed the bier.

32 ସମାନେେ ହିବ୍ରୋଣଠା ରେ ଅବ୍ନରକକ୍ସ୍ଟ କବର ଦେଲେ। ରାଜା ଦାଉଦ ମଧ୍ଯ ସେ ସ୍ଥାନ ରେ ଉପସ୍ଥିତ ରହିଲେ। ରାଜା ଦାଉଦ ଓ ତାଙ୍କର ଲୋକମାନେ କବର ନିକଟରେ ଠିଆ ହାଇେ ରୋଦନ କଲେ।
And they buried Abner in Hebron: and the king lifted up his voice, and wept at the grave of Abner; and all the people wept.

33 ରାଜା ଦାଉଦ ଅବନର ଚିତା ରେ ଛିଡା ହାଇେ ଏହି ଦକ୍ସ୍ଟଃଖ ଗୀତ ବୋଲିଲେ,
And the king lamented over Abner, and said, Died Abner as a fool dieth?

34 ଅବ୍ନର ତକ୍ସ୍ଟମ୍ଭ ହାତ ବନ୍ଧା ନ ଥିଲା କି? ତକ୍ସ୍ଟମ୍ଭ ପାଦ ରେ ଶିଙ୍କକ୍ସ୍ଟଳି ନ ଥିଲା, ତଥାପି, ତୁମ୍ଭକୁ ଦକ୍ସ୍ଟଷ୍ଟ ଲୋକମାନେ ମାରି ଦେଲେ।
Thy hands were not bound, nor thy feet put into fetters: as a man falleth before wicked men, so fellest thou. And all the people wept again over him.

35 ଦିନତମାମ ଲୋକମାନେ ଦାଉଦଙ୍କକ୍ସ୍ଟ ଖାଇବାକକ୍ସ୍ଟ କହିଲେ, କିନ୍ତୁ ଦାଉଦ ଏକ ପ୍ରତିଜ୍ଞା କରିଥିଲେ ଓ କହିଲେ, ଯଦି ସୂର୍ୟ୍ଯାସ୍ତ ପୂର୍ବରକ୍ସ୍ଟ ମୁ ରୋଟୀ କିମ୍ବା ଅନ୍ୟ କିଛି ଆହାର କରେ, ତବେେ ପରମେଶ୍ବର ମାେତେ ଦଣ୍ତ ଓ ଦକ୍ସ୍ଟଃଖ ଦବେେ।
And when all the people came to cause David to eat meat while it was yet day, David sware, saying, So do God to me, and more also, if I taste bread, or ought else, till the sun be down.

36 ସମସ୍ତ ଲୋକ ଏକଥା ବକ୍ସ୍ଟଝିଲେ, ରାଜା ଯାହା କରୁଛନ୍ତି ସମସ୍ତଙ୍କ ଦୃଷ୍ଟି ରେ ତାହା ଭଲ ଥିଲା ବୋଲି ସମସ୍ତେ ତାହା ହୃଦଯଙ୍ଗମ କଲେ।
And all the people took notice of it, and it pleased them: as whatsoever the king did pleased all the people.

37 ଏହିପରି ନରର ପକ୍ସ୍ଟତ୍ର ଅବ୍ନରକକ୍ସ୍ଟ ହତ୍ଯା କରିବା ଯେ ରାଜାଙ୍କ ଆଡକ୍ସ୍ଟ ହାଇେ ନାହିଁ, ଏକଥା ସଦେିନ ଇଶ୍ରାୟେଲର ସମସ୍ତ ଲୋକ ବକ୍ସ୍ଟଝିଲେ।
For all the people and all Israel understood that day that it was not of the king to slay Abner the son of Ner.

38 ରାଜା ଦାଉଦ ତାଙ୍କର ସୈନ୍ଯମାନଙ୍କୁ କହିଲେ, ତୁମ୍ଭମାନେେ ଜାଣ ଯେ ଆଜି ଇଶ୍ରାୟେଲର ଜଣେ ମହତ୍ବପୂର୍ଣ୍ଣ ନେତାଙ୍କର ମୃତକ୍ସ୍ଟ୍ଯ ହେଲା।
And the king said unto his servants, Know ye not that there is a prince and a great man fallen this day in Israel?

39 ମୁ ରାଜା ରୂପେ ଅଭିଷିକ୍ତ ହେଲେ ହେଁ ତଥାପି ମୁ ଆଜି ଦୁର୍ବଳ। ଏହି ସରକ୍ସ୍ଟଯାର ପକ୍ସ୍ଟତ୍ରମାନେ ମାେତେ ଅତି ଦକ୍ସ୍ଟଃଖର କାରଣ ଦେଲେ। ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ ଏହି କକ୍ସ୍ଟକାର୍ୟ୍ଯ କରିଥିବା ଲୋକମାନଙ୍କୁ ତାଙ୍କର କକ୍ସ୍ଟକର୍ମ ଅନକ୍ସ୍ଟସା ରେ ଦଣ୍ତ ଦିଅନ୍ତକ୍ସ୍ଟ।
And I am this day weak, though anointed king; and these men the sons of Zeruiah be too hard for me: the Lord shall reward the doer of evil according to his wickedness.
