Joshua 4
1 ସମସ୍ତ ଲୋକ ୟର୍ଦ୍ଦନ ନଦୀ ପାର ହାଇେ ସାରିବା ପରେ ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ ଯିହାଶୂେୟଙ୍କକ୍ସ୍ଟ କହିଲେ,
2 ବାରଜଣ ଲୋକଙ୍କକ୍ସ୍ଟ ବାରଟି ଗୋଷ୍ଠୀବର୍ଗରକ୍ସ୍ଟ ବାଛ। ପ୍ରେତ୍ୟକକ ଗୋଷ୍ଠୀବର୍ଗରକ୍ସ୍ଟ ଜଣେ।
3 ଏହିପରି ଭାବେ ସମାନଙ୍କେୁ ଆଦେଶ ଦିଅ: ଯେଉଁଠା ରେ ଯାଜକଗଣ ନଦୀ ମଝି ରେ ଛିଡା ହାଇେଥିଲେ ବାରଟି ଶିଳାଖଣ୍ତ ସଂଗ୍ରହ କର। ତକ୍ସ୍ଟମ୍ଭ ସହିତ ସହେି ବାରଟି ଶିଳାଖଣ୍ତକକ୍ସ୍ଟ ବହିନିଅ। ତୁମ୍ଭେ ଯେଉଁଠା ରେ ରାତି କଟାଇବାକକ୍ସ୍ଟ ଯୋଜନା କରିଛ, ସଗେକ୍ସ୍ଟଡିକ ସଠାେରେ ରଖ।
4 ତେଣୁ ଯିହାଶୂେୟ ବାରଟି ଗୋଷ୍ଠୀବର୍ଗରକ୍ସ୍ଟ ବାର ଜଣଙ୍କକ୍ସ୍ଟ ବାଛିଲେ। ପ୍ରେତ୍ୟକକ ଗୋଷ୍ଠୀବର୍ଗରକ୍ସ୍ଟ ଜଣେ। ତା'ପରେ ସେ ସହେି ବାରଜଣ ଲୋକଙ୍କକ୍ସ୍ଟ ଗୋଟିଏ ଜାଗା ରେ ଏକତ୍ର କଲେ।
5 ଯିହାଶୂେୟ ସହେି ବାରଜଣ ଲୋକଙ୍କକ୍ସ୍ଟ କହିଲେ, ୟର୍ଦ୍ଦନ ନଦୀର ମଝିକକ୍ସ୍ଟ ୟାଅ ଯେଉଁଠା ରେ ଯାଜକମାନେ ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁଙ୍କର ପବିତ୍ର ନିଯମ ସିନ୍ଦକ୍ସ୍ଟକ ଧରି ଠିଆ ହାଇେ ଥିଲେ, ତୁମ୍ଭମାନେେ ବାରଟି ଶିଳାଖଣ୍ତ ପାଇବା ଉଚିତ୍। ସଠାେରକ୍ସ୍ଟ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନେେ ପ୍ରେତ୍ୟକକ ଗୋଟିଏ ଲଖାେଁଏ ଶିଳା ତକ୍ସ୍ଟମ୍ଭ କାନ୍ଧ ରେ ବହି ଆଣିବ।
6 ସହେି ଶିଳାଗକ୍ସ୍ଟଡିକ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କର ଏକ ପ୍ରତୀକ ହାଇେ ରହିବ। ଭବିଷ୍ଯତ ରେ ଯେତବେେଳେ ତୁମ୍ଭର ପିଲାମାନେ ଉତ୍ସୁକ ହାଇେ ତୁମ୍ଭକୁ ପଗ୍ଭରିବେ, 'ଏହି ପଥରଗକ୍ସ୍ଟଡିକ ତକ୍ସ୍ଟମ୍ଭ ପାଇଁ କ'ଣ?
7 ତୁମ୍ଭେ ତୁମ୍ଭର ପିଲାମାନଙ୍କୁ କହିବ ଯେ ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ ୟର୍ଦ୍ଦନ ନଦୀର ଜଳ ଧାରକକ୍ସ୍ଟ ବନ୍ଦ କରିଥିଲେ। ସହେି ସମୟରେ ଯାଜକମାନେ ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁଙ୍କର ୟକ୍ସ୍ଟକ୍ତିର ପବିତ୍ର ସିନ୍ଦକ୍ସ୍ଟକ ସହିତ ଧରି ନଦୀ ପାର ହେଉଥିଲେ, ଏହି ଶୀଳା ଖଣ୍ତଗକ୍ସ୍ଟଡିକ ସବୁଦିନ ପାଇଁ ଇଶ୍ରାୟେଲବାସୀଙ୍କର କଥାକକ୍ସ୍ଟ ମନେପକାଉ ଥିବ।
8 ତେଣୁ ଇଶ୍ରାୟେଲ ଲୋକମାନେ ଯିହାଶୂେୟଙ୍କର ନିର୍ଦ୍ଦେଶ ମାନିଲେ। ସମାନେେ ସହେି ବାର ଖଣ୍ତ ଶିଳାଗୁଡିକୁ ନଦୀ ଶର୍ୟ୍ଯାରକ୍ସ୍ଟ ଆଣିଲେ। ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ ଯିହାଶୂେୟଙ୍କକ୍ସ୍ଟ ଦଇେଥିବା ନିର୍ଦ୍ଦେଶ ଅନକ୍ସ୍ଟସା ରେ ପ୍ରେତ୍ୟକକ ପରିବାରବର୍ଗରକ୍ସ୍ଟ ଜଣେ ଗୋଟିଏ ଶିଳାଖଣ୍ତ ନେଲେ। ଲୋକମାନେ ସମାନଙ୍କେ ସହିତ ଶିଳାଖଣ୍ତ ବହିଲେ। ଏବଂ ସମାନେେ ଯେଉଁଠା ରେ ରାତ୍ରି ୟାପନ କରନ୍ତି, ସଠାେରେ ଶିଳାଖଣ୍ତକକ୍ସ୍ଟ ରଖନ୍ତି।
9 ଯିହାଶୂେୟ ୟର୍ଦ୍ଦନ ନଦୀର ମଝି ରେ ବାର ଖଣ୍ତ ପଥର ବସାଇଲେ। ଯେଉଁଠା ରେ ବାର ଜଣ ଯାଜକ ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁଙ୍କର ନିଯମ ସିନ୍ଦକ୍ସ୍ଟକ ଧରି ଠିଆ ହାଇେଥିଲେ। ଯାହାକି ଆଜି ପର୍ୟ୍ଯନ୍ତ ପଥରଖଣ୍ତଗକ୍ସ୍ଟଡିକ ସହେି ସ୍ଥାନ ରେ ଅଛି।
10 ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ ୟିହୋଶୂଯଙ୍କକ୍ସ୍ଟ ନିର୍ଦ୍ଦେଶ କରିଥିଲେ, ଲୋକମାନଙ୍କୁ କହିବା ପାଇଁ, ଯାହା ମାଶାେ ଯିହାଶୂେୟାଙ୍କକ୍ସ୍ଟ କହିଥିଲେ। ତେଣୁ ଯାଜକମାନେ ଯେଉଁମାନେ ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁଙ୍କର ସିନ୍ଦକ୍ସ୍ଟକ ବହକ୍ସ୍ଟଥିଲେ, ସମାନେେ ସହେି ନଦୀ ଶର୍ୟ୍ଯା ରେ ଠିଆ ହାଇେ ରହିଲେ, ସମସ୍ତ ଇଶ୍ରାୟେଲ ଲୋକମାନେ ନଦୀ ପାର ନ ହବୋ ପର୍ୟ୍ଯନ୍ତ।
11 ଯେତବେେଳେ ସମସ୍ତ ଲୋକମାନେ ନଦୀ ପାର ହାଇଗେଲେ, ଏହାପରେ ଯାଜକଗଣ ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁଙ୍କର ପବିତ୍ର ନିଯମ ସିନ୍ଦକ୍ସ୍ଟକ ଧରି ୟର୍ଦ୍ଦନ ନଦୀ ପାର ହାଇଗେଲେ।
12 ରୂବନ୍େ ଗୋଷ୍ଠୀର ମନକ୍ସ୍ଟଷ୍ଯମାନେ, ଗାଦ ଗୋଷ୍ଠୀର ମନକ୍ସ୍ଟଷ୍ଯମାନେ ଓ ମନଃଶିର ଅର୍ଦ୍ଧକେ ଗୋଷ୍ଠୀଗଣ, ୟକ୍ସ୍ଟଦ୍ଧାସ୍ତ୍ର ରେ ସଜ୍ଜିତ ଓ ୟକ୍ସ୍ଟଦ୍ଧ ପାଇଁ ହାଇେ ଇଶ୍ରାୟେଲୀୟମାନଙ୍କ ଆଗ ରେ ନଦୀ ପାର ହାଇଗେଲେ, ଠିକ୍ ମାଶାେ ଯେପରି ସମାନଙ୍କେୁ କହିଲେ ।
13 ପ୍ରାଯ 40 ,000 ସୈନ୍ଯ ୟକ୍ସ୍ଟଦ୍ଧକରିବା ପାଇଁ ପ୍ରସ୍ତକ୍ସ୍ଟତ ହାଇେ ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁଙ୍କ ସମ୍ମକ୍ସ୍ଟଖ ରେ ପାର ହାଇେ ଯିରୀହାେ ପଦାକକ୍ସ୍ଟ ଗଲେ।
14 ସହେିଦିନ ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ ଇଶ୍ରାୟେଲର ଲୋକମାନଙ୍କୁ ଆଗ ରେ ଯିହାଶୂେୟଙ୍କକ୍ସ୍ଟ ସମ୍ଭ୍ରାନ୍ତ କଲେ। ତହିଁରେ ଲୋକମାନେ ମାଶାଙ୍କେକ୍ସ୍ଟ ଯେପରି ଭୟ କରୁଥିଲେ, ସମ୍ମାନ କରୁଥିଲେ, ସହେିପରି ତାଙ୍କର ଜୀବନସାରା ତାଙ୍କୁ ଭୟ ଓ ସମ୍ମାନ କଲେ।
15 ଯେତବେେଳେ ଯାଜକମାନେ ନିଯମ ସିନ୍ଦକ୍ସ୍ଟକ ନଦୀ ମଧିଅରେ ପାର କରୁଥିଲେ ସେ ସମୟରେ ସମାନେେ ନଦୀ ରେ ଛିଡା ହାଇେଥିଲେ, ସେ ସମୟରେ ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ ଯିହାଶୂେୟଙ୍କକ୍ସ୍ଟ କହିଲେ,
16 ତୁମ୍ଭେ ଯାଜକମାନଙ୍କୁ ନିର୍ଦ୍ଦେଶ ଦିଅ ୟର୍ଦ୍ଦନ ନଦୀ ମଧ୍ଯରକ୍ସ୍ଟ ବାହାରକକ୍ସ୍ଟ ଆସିବା ପାଇଁ।
17 ତେଣୁ ଯିହାଶୂେୟ ନିର୍ଦ୍ଦେଶ ଦେଲେ ଯାଜକମାନଙ୍କୁ, ସେ କହିଲେ, ୟର୍ଦ୍ଦନ ନଦୀରକ୍ସ୍ଟ ବାହାରକକ୍ସ୍ଟ ଆସ।
18 ଯାଜକମାନେ ଯିହାଶୂେୟଙ୍କକ୍ସ୍ଟ ମାନିଲେ। ସମାନେେ ସହେି ପବିତ୍ର ସିନ୍ଦକ୍ସ୍ଟକକକ୍ସ୍ଟ ଧରି ନଦୀରକ୍ସ୍ଟ ନଦୀ କୂଳକକ୍ସ୍ଟ ଆସିଲେ। ଯେତବେେଳେ ଯାଜକମାନଙ୍କର ପାଦ ନଦୀରକ୍ସ୍ଟ ବାହାରି ଆସିଲା, ୟର୍ଦ୍ଦନ ନଦୀ ପୂର୍ବପରି ବହିବାକକ୍ସ୍ଟ ଲାଗିଲା। ଏହି ନଦୀ ପୂର୍ବପରି ତା'ର କୂଳ ଲଙ୍ଘନ କଲା।
19 ପ୍ରଥମ ମାସର ଦଶମ ଦିନ ରେ ଲୋକମାନେ ୟର୍ଦ୍ଦନ ନଦୀ ପାର ହାଇେ ଯିରୀହାରେ ପୂର୍ବ ସିମାସ୍ଥିତ ଗିଲଗାଲ୍ଠା ରେ ଛାଉଣୀ ସ୍ଥାପନ କଲେ।
20 ସମାନେେ ୟର୍ଦ୍ଦନରକ୍ସ୍ଟ ଆଣିଥିବା ସହେି ବାରଟି ଶିଳାଖଣ୍ତକକ୍ସ୍ଟ ଯିହାଶୂେୟା ଗିଲଗାଲ୍ଠା ରେ ସ୍ଥାପନ କଲେ।
21 ତା'ପରେ ଯିହାଶୂେୟ ଇଶ୍ରାୟେଲ ଲୋକମାନଙ୍କୁ କହିଲେ, ଭବିଷ୍ଯତ ରେ ତୁମ୍ଭର ପିଲାମାନେ ସମାନଙ୍କେର ପିତାମାତାଙ୍କୁ ପଗ୍ଭରିବେ, 'ଏ ପଥରଗକ୍ସ୍ଟଡିକ କ'ଣ?'
22 ତୁମ୍ଭେ ତୁମ୍ଭର ପିଲାମାନଙ୍କୁ କହିବ, 'ଏହି ଶିଳାଖଣ୍ତଗକ୍ସ୍ଟଡିକ ଅତୀତର ସ୍ମୃତି, କିପରି ଇଶ୍ରାୟେଲର ଲୋକମାନେ ଶକ୍ସ୍ଟଖିଲା ଭୂମିରେ ୟର୍ଦ୍ଦନ ନଦୀ ପାର ହାଇେଥିଲେ।
23 ଆମ୍ଭମାନେେ ପାର ହବୋୟାଏ, ଯେପରି ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କର ପରମେଶ୍ବର ତାଙ୍କର ଶକ୍ତିବଳ ରେ ସୂଫ ସମକ୍ସ୍ଟଦ୍ର ଶିଷ୍କ କରିଥିଲେ, ସହେିପରି ତୁମ୍ଭମାନେେ ପାର ହବୋ ପର୍ୟ୍ଯନ୍ତ ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କ ପରମେଶ୍ବର ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କ ସମ୍ମକ୍ସ୍ଟଖ ରେ ୟର୍ଦ୍ଦନ ନଦୀ ଶକ୍ସ୍ଟଷ୍କ କଲେ।'
24 ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ ଏହିପରି କଲେ, କାରଣ ପୃଥିବୀସ୍ଥ ସମକ୍ସ୍ଟଦାଯ ଲୋକ ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ ଶକ୍ତିଶାଳୀ ବୋଲି ଜାଣି ପାରିବେ, ସେଥିପାଇଁ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନେେ ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କର ପରମେଶଓରଙ୍କୁ ସର୍ବଦା ଭୟ ଓ ସମ୍ମାନ କରିବ।
1 And it came to pass, when all the people were clean passed over Jordan, that the Lord spake unto Joshua, saying,
2 Take you twelve men out of the people, out of every tribe a man,
3 And command ye them, saying, Take you hence out of the midst of Jordan, out of the place where the priests’ feet stood firm, twelve stones, and ye shall carry them over with you, and leave them in the lodging place, where ye shall lodge this night.
4 Then Joshua called the twelve men, whom he had prepared of the children of Israel, out of every tribe a man:
5 And Joshua said unto them, Pass over before the ark of the Lord your God into the midst of Jordan, and take ye up every man of you a stone upon his shoulder, according unto the number of the tribes of the children of Israel:
6 That this may be a sign among you, that when your children ask their fathers in time to come, saying, What mean ye by these stones?
7 Then ye shall answer them, That the waters of Jordan were cut off before the ark of the covenant of the Lord; when it passed over Jordan, the waters of Jordan were cut off: and these stones shall be for a memorial unto the children of Israel for ever.
8 And the children of Israel did so as Joshua commanded, and took up twelve stones out of the midst of Jordan, as the Lord spake unto Joshua, according to the number of the tribes of the children of Israel, and carried them over with them unto the place where they lodged, and laid them down there.
9 And Joshua set up twelve stones in the midst of Jordan, in the place where the feet of the priests which bare the ark of the covenant stood: and they are there unto this day.
10 For the priests which bare the ark stood in the midst of Jordan, until every thing was finished that the Lord commanded Joshua to speak unto the people, according to all that Moses commanded Joshua: and the people hasted and passed over.
11 And it came to pass, when all the people were clean passed over, that the ark of the Lord passed over, and the priests, in the presence of the people.
12 And the children of Reuben, and the children of Gad, and half the tribe of Manasseh, passed over armed before the children of Israel, as Moses spake unto them:
13 About forty thousand prepared for war passed over before the Lord unto battle, to the plains of Jericho.
14 On that day the Lord magnified Joshua in the sight of all Israel; and they feared him, as they feared Moses, all the days of his life.
15 And the Lord spake unto Joshua, saying,
16 Command the priests that bear the ark of the testimony, that they come up out of Jordan.
17 Joshua therefore commanded the priests, saying, Come ye up out of Jordan.
18 And it came to pass, when the priests that bare the ark of the covenant of the Lord were come up out of the midst of Jordan, and the soles of the priests’ feet were lifted up unto the dry land, that the waters of Jordan returned unto their place, and flowed over all his banks, as they did before.
19 And the people came up out of Jordan on the tenth day of the first month, and encamped in Gilgal, in the east border of Jericho.
20 And those twelve stones, which they took out of Jordan, did Joshua pitch in Gilgal.
21 And he spake unto the children of Israel, saying, When your children shall ask their fathers in time to come, saying, What mean these stones?
22 Then ye shall let your children know, saying, Israel came over this Jordan on dry land.
23 For the Lord your God dried up the waters of Jordan from before you, until ye were passed over, as the Lord your God did to the Red sea, which he dried up from before us, until we were gone over:
24 That all the people of the earth might know the hand of the Lord, that it is mighty: that ye might fear the Lord your God for ever.
2 Kings 3 in Tamil and English
8 எந்த வழியாய்ப் போவோம் என்று கேட்டான்; அதற்கு அவன்: ஏதோம் வனாந்தரவழியாய் என்றான்.
And he said, Which way shall we go up? And he answered, The way through the wilderness of Edom.
9 அப்படியே இஸ்ரவேலின் ராஜாவும் யூதாவின் ராஜாவும் ஏதோமின் ராஜாவும் சேர்ந்து போனார்கள்; ஆனாலும் அவர்கள் ஏழுநாள் சுற்றித்திரிந்தபோது, அவர்களைப் பின்செல்லுகிற இராணுவத்துக்கும் மிருகஜீவன்களுக்கும் தண்ணீர் இல்லாமற்போயிற்று.
So the king of Israel went, and the king of Judah, and the king of Edom: and they fetched a compass of seven days’ journey: and there was no water for the host, and for the cattle that followed them.
10 அப்பொழுது இஸ்ரவேலின் ராஜா: ஐயோ, இந்த மூன்று ராஜாக்களையும் கர்த்தர் மோவாபியரின் கையில் ஒப்புக்கொடுக்க வரவழைத்தாரே என்றான்.
And the king of Israel said, Alas! that the Lord hath called these three kings together, to deliver them into the hand of Moab!
11 அப்பொழுது யோசபாத்: நாம் கர்த்தரிடத்தில் விசாரிக்கும்படி கர்த்தருடைய தீர்க்கதரிசி ஒருவரும் இங்கே இல்லையா என்று கேட்டதற்கு, எலியாவின் கைகளுக்குத் தண்ணீர் வார்த்த சாப்பாத்தின் குமாரனாகிய எலிசா இங்கே இருக்கிறான் என்று இஸ்ரவேல் ராஜாவின் ஊழியக்காரரில் ஒருவன் மறுமொழியாகச் சொன்னான்.
But Jehoshaphat said, Is there not here a prophet of the Lord, that we may inquire of the Lord by him? And one of the king of Israel’s servants answered and said, Here is Elisha the son of Shaphat, which poured water on the hands of Elijah.
12 அப்பொழுது யோசபாத் அவனை நோக்கி: கர்த்தருடைய வார்த்தை அவனிடத்தில் இருக்கிறது என்றான்; இஸ்ரவேலின் ராஜாவும் யோசபாத்தும் ஏதோமின் ராஜாவும் அவனிடத்தில் போனார்கள்.
And Jehoshaphat said, The word of the Lord is with him. So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat and the king of Edom went down to him.
13 எலிசா இஸ்ரவேலின் ராஜாவைப் பார்த்து: எனக்கும் உமக்கும் என்ன? நீர் உம்முடைய தகப்பனின் தீர்க்கதரிசிகளிடத்திலும், உம்முடைய தாயாரின் தீர்க்கதரிசிகளிடத்திலும் போம் என்றான். அதற்கு இஸ்ரவேலின் ராஜா: அப்படியல்ல, கர்த்தர் இந்த மூன்று ராஜாக்களையும் மோவாபியரின் கையில் ஒப்புக்கொடுக்கிறதற்கு வரவழைத்தார் என்றான்.
And Elisha said unto the king of Israel, What have I to do with thee? get thee to the prophets of thy father, and to the prophets of thy mother. And the king of Israel said unto him, Nay: for the Lord hath called these three kings together, to deliver them into the hand of Moab.
14 அதற்கு எலிசா: நான் யூதாவின் ராஜாவாகிய யோசபாத்தின் முகத்தைப் பாராதிருந்தால் நான் உம்மை நோக்கவுமாட்டேன், உம்மைப் பார்க்கவுமாட்டேன் என்று சேனைகளுடைய கர்த்தருக்கு முன்நிற்கிற நான் அவருடைய ஜீவனைக்கொண்டு சொல்லுகிறேன்.
And Elisha said, As the Lord of hosts liveth, before whom I stand, surely, were it not that I regard the presence of Jehoshaphat the king of Judah, I would not look toward thee, nor see thee.
15 இப்போதும் ஒரு சுரமண்டல வாத்தியக்காரனை என்னிடத்தில் கொண்டுவாருங்கள் என்றான்; சுரமண்டல வாத்தியக்காரன் வந்து வாசித்தபோது கர்த்தருடைய கரம் அவன்மேல் இறங்கி,
But now bring me a minstrel. And it came to pass, when the minstrel played, that the hand of the Lord came upon him.
16 அவன்: கர்த்தர் உரைக்கிறது என்னவென்றால், இந்தப் பள்ளத்தாக்கிலே எங்கும் வாய்க்கால்களை வெட்டுங்கள்.
And he said, Thus saith the Lord, Make this valley full of ditches.
17 நீங்கள் காற்றையும் காணமாட்டீர்கள், மழையையும் காணமாட்டீர்கள்; ஆனாலும் நீங்களும் உங்கள் ஆடு மாடுகளும் உங்கள் மிருகஜீவன்களும் குடிக்கும்படிக்கு, இந்தப் பள்ளத்தாக்கு தண்ணீரால் நிரப்பப்படும் என்று கர்த்தர் சொல்லுகிறார்.
For thus saith the Lord, Ye shall not see wind, neither shall ye see rain; yet that valley shall be filled with water, that ye may drink, both ye, and your cattle, and your beasts.
18 இது கர்த்தரின் பார்வைக்கு அற்பகாரியம்; மோவாபியரையும் உங்கள் கையிலே ஒப்புக்கொடுப்பார்.
And this is but a light thing in the sight of the Lord: he will deliver the Moabites also into your hand.
19 நீங்கள் சகல கோட்டைகளையும் சகல சிறந்த பட்டணங்களையும் தகர்த்து, நல்ல மரங்களையெல்லாம் வெட்டி, நீரூற்றுகளையெல்லாம் தூர்த்து, நல்ல நிலத்தையெல்லாம் கல்மேடுகளாக்கிக் கெடுப்பீர்கள் என்றான்.
And ye shall smite every fenced city, and every choice city, and shall fell every good tree, and stop all wells of water, and mar every good piece of land with stones.
20 மறுநாள் காலமே பலிசெலுத்தப்படும் நேரத்தில், இதோ, தண்ணீர் ஏதோம் தேசவழியாய் வந்ததினால் தேசம் தண்ணீரால் நிரம்பிற்று.
And it came to pass in the morning, when the meat offering was offered, that, behold, there came water by the way of Edom, and the country was filled with water.
21 தங்களோடு யுத்தம்பண்ண ராஜாக்கள் வருகிறதை மோவாபியரெல்லாரும் கேட்டபோது, அவர்கள் ஆயுதம் தரிக்கத்தக்க வயதுள்ளவர்களையும், அதற்கு மேல் தரமானவர்கள் எல்லாரையும் கூட்டி அழைத்துக் கொண்டுவந்து எல்லையிலே நின்றார்கள்.
And when all the Moabites heard that the kings were come up to fight against them, they gathered all that were able to put on armour, and upward, and stood in the border.
22 மோவாபியர் அதிகாலமே எழுந்தபோது சூரியன் தண்ணீரின் மேல் பிரகாசித்ததினால் அந்தத் தண்ணீர் அவர்களுக்கு இரத்தம்போல் சிவப்பாய்க் காணப்பட்டது.
And they rose up early in the morning, and the sun shone upon the water, and the Moabites saw the water on the other side as red as blood:
23 அதினால் அவர்கள்: இது இரத்தம், அந்த ராஜாக்கள் தங்களைத் தாங்களே ஒருவரை ஒருவர் வெட்டிக்கொண்டு மாண்டுபோனார்கள்; ஆதலால் மோவாபியரே, கொள்ளைக்கு வாருங்கள் என்று சொன்னார்கள்.
And they said, This is blood: the kings are surely slain, and they have smitten one another: now therefore, Moab, to the spoil.
24 அவர்கள் இஸ்ரவேலின் பாளயத்திற்கு வந்தபோதோவெனில், இஸ்ரவேலர் எழும்பி, மோவாபியரைத் தங்களுக்கு முன்பாக ஓடிப்போகத்தக்கதாய் முறியஅடித்து, அவர்கள் தேசத்திற்குள் புகுந்து, அங்கேயும் மோவாபியரை முறிய அடித்து,
And when they came to the camp of Israel, the Israelites rose up and smote the Moabites, so that they fled before them: but they went forward smiting the Moabites, even in their country.
25 பட்டணங்களை இடித்து, சகல நல்ல நிலத்திலும் கல்லெறிந்து நிரப்பி, நீரூற்றுகளையெல்லாம் தூர்த்து, நல்ல மரங்களையெல்லாம் வெட்டிப்போட்டார்கள்; கிராரேசேத்திலே மாத்திரம் அதின் மதில்கள் இன்னும் இடிபடாதிருக்கிறபோது; கவண்காரர் அதைச் சுற்றிக்கொண்டு அதையும் சேதமாக்கினார்கள்.
And they beat down the cities, and on every good piece of land cast every man his stone, and filled it; and they stopped all the wells of water, and felled all the good trees: only in Kir-haraseth left they the stones thereof; howbeit the slingers went about it, and smote it.
26 யுத்தம் மும்முரமாகிறதென்று மோவாபியரின் ராஜா கண்டபோது, அவன் ஏதோமின் ராஜாவின்மேல் வலுமையாய் விழுகிறதற்குப் பட்டயம் உருவுகிற எழுநூறுபேரைக் கூட்டிக்கொண்டு போனான்; ஆனாலும் அவர்களாலே கூடாமற்போயிற்று.
And when the king of Moab saw that the battle was too sore for him, he took with him seven hundred men that drew swords, to break through even unto the king of Edom: but they could not.
