19 In the course of time, Nahash king of the Ammonites died, and his son succeeded him as king. 2 David thought, “I will show kindness to Hanun son of Nahash, because his father showed kindness to me.” So David sent a delegation to express his sympathy to Hanun concerning his father. When David’s envoys came to Hanun in the land of the Ammonites to express sympathy to him, 3 the Ammonite commanders said to Hanun, “Do you think David is honoring your father by sending envoys to you to express sympathy? Haven’t his envoys come to you only to explore and spy out the country and overthrow it?” 4 So Hanun seized David’s envoys, shaved them, cut off their garments at the buttocks, and sent them away. 5 When someone came and told David about the men, he sent messengers to meet them, for they were greatly humiliated. The king said, “Stay at Jericho till your beards have grown, and then come back.” 6 When the Ammonites realized that they had become obnoxious to David, Hanun and the Ammonites sent a thousand talents[a] of silver to hire chariots and charioteers from Aram Naharaim,[b] Aram Maakah and Zobah. 7 They hired thirty-two thousand chariots and charioteers, as well as the king of Maakah with his troops, who came and camped near Medeba, while the Ammonites were mustered from their towns and moved out for battle. 8 On hearing this, David sent Joab out with the entire army of fighting men. 9 The Ammonites came out and drew up in battle formation at the entrance to their city, while the kings who had come were by themselves in the open country. 10 Joab saw that there were battle lines in front of him and behind him; so he selected some of the best troops in Israel and deployed them against the Arameans. 11 He put the rest of the men under the command of Abishai his brother, and they were deployed against the Ammonites. 12 Joab said, “If the Arameans are too strong for me, then you are to rescue me; but if the Ammonites are too strong for you, then I will rescue you. 13 Be strong, and let us fight bravely for our people and the cities of our God. The Lord will do what is good in his sight.” 14 Then Joab and the troops with him advanced to fight the Arameans, and they fled before him. 15 When the Ammonites realized that the Arameans were fleeing, they too fled before his brother Abishai and went inside the city. So Joab went back to Jerusalem. 16 After the Arameans saw that they had been routed by Israel, they sent messengers and had Arameans brought from beyond the Euphrates River, with Shophak the commander of Hadadezer’s army leading them. 17 When David was told of this, he gathered all Israel and crossed the Jordan; he advanced against them and formed his battle lines opposite them. David formed his lines to meet the Arameans in battle, and they fought against him. 18 But they fled before Israel, and David killed seven thousand of their charioteers and forty thousand of their foot soldiers. He also killed Shophak the commander of their army. 19 When the vassals of Hadadezer saw that they had been routed by Israel, they made peace with David and became subject to him. So the Arameans were not willing to help the Ammonites anymore. 20 In the spring, at the time when kings go off to war, Joab led out the armed forces. He laid waste the land of the Ammonites and went to Rabbah and besieged it, but David remained in Jerusalem. Joab attacked Rabbah and left it in ruins. 2 David took the crown from the head of their king[c]—its weight was found to be a talent[d] of gold, and it was set with precious stones—and it was placed on David’s head. He took a great quantity of plunder from the city 3 and brought out the people who were there, consigning them to labor with saws and with iron picks and axes. David did this to all the Ammonite towns. Then David and his entire army returned to Jerusalem. 4 In the course of time, war broke out with the Philistines, at Gezer. At that time Sibbekai the Hushathite killed Sippai, one of the descendants of the Rephaites, and the Philistines were subjugated. 5 In another battle with the Philistines, Elhanan son of Jair killed Lahmi the brother of Goliath the Gittite, who had a spear with a shaft like a weaver’s rod. 6 In still another battle, which took place at Gath, there was a huge man with six fingers on each hand and six toes on each foot—twenty-four in all. He also was descended from Rapha. 7 When he taunted Israel, Jonathan son of Shimea, David’s brother, killed him. 8 These were descendants of Rapha in Gath, and they fell at the hands of David and his men. 21 Satan rose up against Israel and incited David to take a census of Israel. 2 So David said to Joab and the commanders of the troops, “Go and count the Israelites from Beersheba to Dan. Then report back to me so that I may know how many there are.” 3 But Joab replied, “May the Lord multiply his troops a hundred times over. My lord the king, are they not all my lord’s subjects? Why does my lord want to do this? Why should he bring guilt on Israel?” 4 The king’s word, however, overruled Joab; so Joab left and went throughout Israel and then came back to Jerusalem. 5 Joab reported the number of the fighting men to David: In all Israel there were one million one hundred thousand men who could handle a sword, including four hundred and seventy thousand in Judah. 6 But Joab did not include Levi and Benjamin in the numbering, because the king’s command was repulsive to him. 7 This command was also evil in the sight of God; so he punished Israel. 8 Then David said to God, “I have sinned greatly by doing this. Now, I beg you, take away the guilt of your servant. I have done a very foolish thing.” 9 The Lord said to Gad, David’s seer, 10 “Go and tell David, ‘This is what the Lord says: I am giving you three options. Choose one of them for me to carry out against you.’” 11 So Gad went to David and said to him, “This is what the Lord says: ‘Take your choice: 12 three years of famine, three months of being swept away[e] before your enemies, with their swords overtaking you, or three days of the sword of the Lord—days of plague in the land, with the angel of the Lord ravaging every part of Israel.’ Now then, decide how I should answer the one who sent me.” 13 David said to Gad, “I am in deep distress. Let me fall into the hands of the Lord, for his mercy is very great; but do not let me fall into human hands.” 14 So the Lord sent a plague on Israel, and seventy thousand men of Israel fell dead. 15 And God sent an angel to destroy Jerusalem. But as the angel was doing so, the Lord saw it and relented concerning the disaster and said to the angel who was destroying the people, “Enough! Withdraw your hand.” The angel of the Lord was then standing at the threshing floor of Araunah[f] the Jebusite. 16 David looked up and saw the angel of the Lord standing between heaven and earth, with a drawn sword in his hand extended over Jerusalem. Then David and the elders, clothed in sackcloth, fell facedown. 17 David said to God, “Was it not I who ordered the fighting men to be counted? I, the shepherd,[g] have sinned and done wrong. These are but sheep. What have they done? Lord my God, let your hand fall on me and my family, but do not let this plague remain on your people.” 18 Then the angel of the Lord ordered Gad to tell David to go up and build an altar to the Lord on the threshing floor of Araunah the Jebusite. 19 So David went up in obedience to the word that Gad had spoken in the name of the Lord. 20 While Araunah was threshing wheat, he turned and saw the angel; his four sons who were with him hid themselves. 21 Then David approached, and when Araunah looked and saw him, he left the threshing floor and bowed down before David with his face to the ground. 22 David said to him, “Let me have the site of your threshing floor so I can build an altar to the Lord, that the plague on the people may be stopped. Sell it to me at the full price.” 23 Araunah said to David, “Take it! Let my lord the king do whatever pleases him. Look, I will give the oxen for the burnt offerings, the threshing sledges for the wood, and the wheat for the grain offering. I will give all this.” 24 But King David replied to Araunah, “No, I insist on paying the full price. I will not take for the Lord what is yours, or sacrifice a burnt offering that costs me nothing.” 25 So David paid Araunah six hundred shekels[h] of gold for the site. 26 David built an altar to the Lord there and sacrificed burnt offerings and fellowship offerings. He called on the Lord, and the Lord answered him with fire from heaven on the altar of burnt offering. 27 Then the Lord spoke to the angel, and he put his sword back into its sheath. 28 At that time, when David saw that the Lord had answered him on the threshing floor of Araunah the Jebusite, he offered sacrifices there. 29 The tabernacle of the Lord, which Moses had made in the wilderness, and the altar of burnt offering were at that time on the high place at Gibeon. 30 But David could not go before it to inquire of God, because he was afraid of the sword of the angel of the Lord. 8 1 but Jesus went to the Mount of Olives. 2 At dawn he appeared again in the temple courts, where all the people gathered around him, and he sat down to teach them. 3 The teachers of the law and the Pharisees brought in a woman caught in adultery. They made her stand before the group 4 and said to Jesus, “Teacher, this woman was caught in the act of adultery. 5 In the Law Moses commanded us to stone such women. Now what do you say?” 6 They were using this question as a trap, in order to have a basis for accusing him. But Jesus bent down and started to write on the ground with his finger. 7 When they kept on questioning him, he straightened up and said to them, “Let any one of you who is without sin be the first to throw a stone at her.” 8 Again he stooped down and wrote on the ground. 9 At this, those who heard began to go away one at a time, the older ones first, until only Jesus was left, with the woman still standing there. 10 Jesus straightened up and asked her, “Woman, where are they? Has no one condemned you?” 11 “No one, sir,” she said. “Then neither do I condemn you,” Jesus declared. “Go now and leave your life of sin.” 12 When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” 13 The Pharisees challenged him, “Here you are, appearing as your own witness; your testimony is not valid.” 14 Jesus answered, “Even if I testify on my own behalf, my testimony is valid, for I know where I came from and where I am going. But you have no idea where I come from or where I am going. 15 You judge by human standards; I pass judgment on no one. 16 But if I do judge, my decisions are true, because I am not alone. I stand with the Father, who sent me. 17 In your own Law it is written that the testimony of two witnesses is true. 18 I am one who testifies for myself; my other witness is the Father, who sent me.” 19 Then they asked him, “Where is your father?” “You do not know me or my Father,” Jesus replied. “If you knew me, you would know my Father also.” 20 He spoke these words while teaching in the temple courts near the place where the offerings were put. Yet no one seized him, because his hour had not yet come. 21 Once more Jesus said to them, “I am going away, and you will look for me, and you will die in your sin. Where I go, you cannot come.” 22 This made the Jews ask, “Will he kill himself? Is that why he says, ‘Where I go, you cannot come’?” 23 But he continued, “You are from below; I am from above. You are of this world; I am not of this world. 24 I told you that you would die in your sins; if you do not believe that I am he, you will indeed die in your sins.” 25 “Who are you?” they asked. “Just what I have been telling you from the beginning,” Jesus replied. 26 “I have much to say in judgment of you. But he who sent me is trustworthy, and what I have heard from him I tell the world.” 27 They did not understand that he was telling them about his Father.

1 इतिहास 21Nepali Bible: Easy-to-Read Version (ERV-NE) इस्राएलीहरूको गन्ती गरेर दाऊदले पाप गर्छन 21 शैतान इस्राएलका मानिसहरूको विरूद्ध थियो। त्यसले दाऊदलाई इस्राएलका मानिसहरूको गन्ती गर्न उत्साहित तुल्यायो। 2 यसर्थ दाऊदले योआब र मानिसहरूका अगुवाहरूलाई भने, “जाऊ अनि इस्राएलका सबै मानिसहरूको गणना गर। देशमा भएका हरेकको गन्तीगर। बेर्शेबा शहरदेखि दान शहरसम्म। तब मलाई भन, जसद्वारा त्यहाँ कति जना मानिसहरू छन् म जान्ने छु।” 3 तर योआबले भने, “परमप्रभुले उहाँको राष्ट्रलाई सय गुणा विशाल बनाउन्। हजूर, इस्राएलका सबै मानिसहरू तपाईका दास हुन्। तपाई किन यो काम गर्न चाहनुहुन्छ, मेरा परमप्रभु राजा तपाईले इस्राएलका सबै मानिसहरूलाई पापको दोषी तुल्याउनु हुनेछ।” 4 तर राजा दाऊद ढीट थिए। योआबले त्यसै गर्नु पर्यो जो राजाले भने। यसर्थ योआब गए अनि मानिसहरूको गिन्ती गर्दै देश भरि घुमे। त्यस पछि योआब यरूशलेम फर्की आए। 5 अनि कतिजना मानिसहरू थिए सो दाऊदलाई भने। इस्राएलमा 11,00,000 मानिसहरू थिए जो तरवार चलाउन सक्थे। अनि 4,70,000 मानिसहरू यहूदामा थिए जो तरवार चलाउन सक्थे। 6 योआबले लेवी अनि बिन्यामीनका कुल समूहहरूको गिन्ती लिएनन्। योआबले ती अनि परिवार समूहहरूको गणना गरेनन् किनभने तिनलाई दाऊदको आदेश मनपरेन। 7 परमेश्वरको नजरमा दाऊदले नराम्रो कार्य गरेका थिए। यसर्थ परमेश्वरले इस्राएललाई दण्ड दिनु भयो। परमेश्वरले इस्राएललाई दण्ड दिनु हुन्छ 8 तब दाऊदले परमेश्वरलाई भने, “मैले अति मूर्खतापूर्ण काम गरेकोछु। मैले इस्राएलका मानिसहरूको गणना गरेर अति नराम्रो पाप गरेका छु। त्यसकारण म तपाईको दासबाट यो पाप हटाई दिनुहोस् भनी याचना गर्छु।” 9-10 गाद दाऊदका दर्शी थिए। परमप्रभुले गादलाई भन्नुभयो, “जा, अनि दाऊदलाई भनः ‘परमप्रभुले जे भन्नुहुन्छ त्यो यो होः म तँलाई तीनवटा रोजाइ दिंदैछु। तैंले ती मध्ये एउटा रोज्नु पर्छ। तब म तैंले रोजे अनुसार दण्ड दिनेछु।’” 11-12 तब गाद दाऊद कहाँ गए र गादले दाऊदलाई भने, “परमप्रभु यही भन्नुहुन्छ, ‘दाऊद रोज कुन चाँही दण्ड तिमी चाहन्छौ? अनिकालको तीन बर्ष, वा तीन महीनासम्म तेरो शत्रुहरू देखि भागी हिँड्नु जब तिनीहरू आफ्ना तरवार लिएर तँलाई खेद्नेछन् अथवा परमप्रभुबाट तीन दिनको दण्ड। या भयानक रूढ़ी देश भरि फैलिने छ अनि परमप्रभुका स्वर्गदूतले मानिसहरूलाई ध्वंश गर्दै इस्राएलको चारैतिर जानेछन्।’ दाऊद, परमेश्वरले मलाई पठाउनु भएको हो। अब तपाईंले निर्णय गर्नुहोस्, कुन उत्तर मैले उहाँलाई दिनु?” 13 दाऊदले गादलाई भने, “म संकष्टमा परेको छु। म कुनै मानिसले मलाई दण्ड दिएको फैसला चाहँदिन। परमप्रभु दयालू हुनुहुन्छ यसकारण मलाई उहाँको हातमा पर्न दिनोस्।” 14 यसर्थ परमप्रभुले इस्राएलमा भयंकर रोगहरू पठाउनुभयो अनि 70,000 मानिसहरू मरे। 15 परमेश्वरले एउटा स्वर्गदूतलाई यरूशलेम ध्वंश त गर्न पठाउनु भयो। तर जब ती स्वर्ग दूतले यरूशलेमलाई ध्वंशत गर्न शुरू गरे परमप्रभुले त्यो देख्नु भयो अनि उहाँलाई दुःख लाग्यो यसर्थ परमप्रभुले यरूशलेमलाई नाश नपार्ने निश्चय गर्नुभयो। परमप्रभुले स्वर्गदूतलाई जो नाश गर्दै थिए, भन्नुभयो, “रोक! यति नै पर्याप्त छ।” परमप्रभुका स्वर्गदूत यबूसी ओर्नानको खलामा उभिएका थिए। 16 दाऊदले माथितिर हेरे अनि परमप्रभुका स्वर्गदूतलाई आकाशमा देखे। स्वर्गदूतले तिनको तरवार यरूशलेम शहर माथि समातिरहेका थिए। तब दाऊद अनि बूढा-प्रधानहरूले आफ्ना शिरलाई भूईँ छुनेगरि झुकाएर प्रणाम गरे। दाऊद अनि बूढा-प्रधानहरूले आफ्ना दुःख प्रकट गर्नका निम्ति विशेष वस्त्र पहिरेका थिए। 17 दाऊदले परमेश्वरलाई भने, “म त्यही एक हुँ जसले पाप गर्यो। मानिसहरूको गन्ती गर्नका निम्ति मैले नै आदेश गरेको थिएँ। म अन्जानमा थिएँ। इस्राएलका मानिसहरूले केही भूल गरेका थिएनन्। परमप्रभु मेरा परमेश्वर, मलाई र मेरो परिवारलाई दण्ड दिनुहोस्। तर यो भयानक रोगहरूलाई रोक्नुहोस् जसले तपाईंका मानिसहरूलाई मारिरहेछ।” 18 तब परमप्रभुका स्वर्गदूतले गादलाई भने, “दाऊदलाई परमप्रभुको आराधना गर्नका निम्ति एक वेदी निर्माण गर्नु भन। दाऊदले त्यो बेदी यबूसीका ओर्नानको खलाको नजिक निर्माण गर्नुपर्छ।” 19 गादले ती कुराहरू दाऊदलाई भने अनि दाऊद ओर्नानको खलातिर गए। 20 ओर्नान गहुँ कुट्दै थिए। ओर्नान फर्के अनि स्वर्गदूतलाई देखे। ओर्नानका चारजना छोराहरू लुक्नलाई कुदे। 21 दाऊद ओर्नान डाँडा तिर उकालो लागे। ओर्नानले तिनलाई देखे र खला छाडे। तिनी दाऊद भए तिर गए अनि तिनको सामुन्ने भूईँ छुनेगरी शिर झुकाई प्रणाम गरे। 22 दाऊदले ओर्नानलाई भने, “तिम्रो खला मलाई बेच। म तिमीलाई पूरा दाम दिनेछु। तब म यो जग्गालाई परमप्रभुको अराधना गर्नको निम्ति बेदी निर्माण गर्न प्रयोग गर्ने छु। तब यी भयानक रोगहरू बन्द हुनेछन्।” 23 ओर्नानले दाऊदलाई भने, “यो खला लिनुहोस्। तपाईं मेरो स्वामी, महाराजा हुनुहुन्छ। तपाईंलाई जे इच्छ लाग्छ त्यही गर्नु होस्। तपाईलाई होम बलिहरूका निम्ति गाई-गोरूहरू पनि दिनेछु। म तपाईलाई खलाको तखताहरू दाउराको रूपमा दिनेछु। म अन्न बलि चढाउनको निम्ति गहुँ र यी सबै सामानहरू तपाईलाई दिनेछु।” 24 तर राजा दाऊदले ओर्नानलाई उत्तर दिए, “होइन, म तिमीलाई पूरा दाम दिन्छु। परमप्रभुलाई अर्पण गर्नका निम्ति म तिम्रो केही चीज लिँदिन। म त्यो भेट अर्पण गर्दिनँ जसको कुनै मूल्य दिनु पर्दैन।” 25 यसर्थ दाऊदले ओर्नानलाई त्यो स्थानको निम्ति 600 शेकेल जति सुन दिए। 26 दाऊदले त्यहाँ परमप्रभुको आराधना गर्नका निम्ति एउटा बेदी निर्माण गरे। दाऊदलले होमबलि र मेलबलि चढाए। दाऊदले परमप्रभुसित प्रार्थना गरे। परमप्रभुले स्वर्गबाट आगो पठाएर दाऊदलाई उत्तर दिनुभयो। त्यो आगो तल होमबलिको बेदीमा झर्यो। 27 तब परमप्रभुले स्वर्गदूतलाई तिनको तरवार म्यानमा हाल्नु भनी आज्ञा दिनुभयो। 28 दाऊदले देखे कि परमप्रभुले ओर्नानको खलामा तिनलाई उत्तर दिनुभयो। यसर्थ दाऊदले परमप्रभुको निम्ति बलि चढाए। 29 (पवित्र पाल अनि होमबलिको वेदी गिबोन शहरको उच्च स्थानमा थियो। मोशाले त्यो पवित्र पाल निर्माण गरेका थिए जब इस्राएलका मानिसहरू मरुभूमिमा थिए। 30 दाऊद परमेश्वरसित कुरा-कानी गर्न पवित्र पालमा जान सकेनन् किनभने तिनी भयभीत थिए। दाऊद परमप्रभुका स्वर्गदूत अनि तिनको तरवारसित भयभीत थिए।)
