15 Samuel said to Saul, “I am the one the Lord sent to anoint you king over his people Israel; so listen now to the message from the Lord. 2 This is what the Lord Almighty says: ‘I will punish the Amalekites for what they did to Israel when they waylaid them as they came up from Egypt. 3 Now go, attack the Amalekites and totally destroy[a] all that belongs to them. Do not spare them; put to death men and women, children and infants, cattle and sheep, camels and donkeys.’” 4 So Saul summoned the men and mustered them at Telaim—two hundred thousand foot soldiers and ten thousand from Judah. 5 Saul went to the city of Amalek and set an ambush in the ravine. 6 Then he said to the Kenites, “Go away, leave the Amalekites so that I do not destroy you along with them; for you showed kindness to all the Israelites when they came up out of Egypt.” So the Kenites moved away from the Amalekites. 7 Then Saul attacked the Amalekites all the way from Havilah to Shur, near the eastern border of Egypt. 8 He took Agag king of the Amalekites alive, and all his people he totally destroyed with the sword. 9 But Saul and the army spared Agag and the best of the sheep and cattle, the fat calves[b] and lambs—everything that was good. These they were unwilling to destroy completely, but everything that was despised and weak they totally destroyed. 10 Then the word of the Lord came to Samuel: 11 “I regret that I have made Saul king, because he has turned away from me and has not carried out my instructions.” Samuel was angry, and he cried out to the Lord all that night. 12 Early in the morning Samuel got up and went to meet Saul, but he was told, “Saul has gone to Carmel. There he has set up a monument in his own honor and has turned and gone on down to Gilgal.” 13 When Samuel reached him, Saul said, “The Lord bless you! I have carried out the Lord’s instructions.” 14 But Samuel said, “What then is this bleating of sheep in my ears? What is this lowing of cattle that I hear?” 15 Saul answered, “The soldiers brought them from the Amalekites; they spared the best of the sheep and cattle to sacrifice to the Lord your God, but we totally destroyed the rest.” 16 “Enough!” Samuel said to Saul. “Let me tell you what the Lord said to me last night.” “Tell me,” Saul replied. 17 Samuel said, “Although you were once small in your own eyes, did you not become the head of the tribes of Israel? The Lord anointed you king over Israel. 18 And he sent you on a mission, saying, ‘Go and completely destroy those wicked people, the Amalekites; wage war against them until you have wiped them out.’ 19 Why did you not obey the Lord? Why did you pounce on the plunder and do evil in the eyes of the Lord?” 20 “But I did obey the Lord,” Saul said. “I went on the mission the Lord assigned me. I completely destroyed the Amalekites and brought back Agag their king. 21 The soldiers took sheep and cattle from the plunder, the best of what was devoted to God, in order to sacrifice them to the Lord your God at Gilgal.” 22 But Samuel replied: “Does the Lord delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices as much as in obeying the Lord? To obey is better than sacrifice, and to heed is better than the fat of rams. 23 For rebellion is like the sin of divination, and arrogance like the evil of idolatry. Because you have rejected the word of the Lord, he has rejected you as king.” 24 Then Saul said to Samuel, “I have sinned. I violated the Lord’s command and your instructions. I was afraid of the men and so I gave in to them. 25 Now I beg you, forgive my sin and come back with me, so that I may worship the Lord.” 26 But Samuel said to him, “I will not go back with you. You have rejected the word of the Lord, and the Lord has rejected you as king over Israel!” 27 As Samuel turned to leave, Saul caught hold of the hem of his robe, and it tore. 28 Samuel said to him, “The Lord has torn the kingdom of Israel from you today and has given it to one of your neighbors—to one better than you. 29 He who is the Glory of Israel does not lie or change his mind; for he is not a human being, that he should change his mind.” 30 Saul replied, “I have sinned. But please honor me before the elders of my people and before Israel; come back with me, so that I may worship the Lord your God.” 31 So Samuel went back with Saul, and Saul worshiped the Lord. 32 Then Samuel said, “Bring me Agag king of the Amalekites.” Agag came to him in chains.[c] And he thought, “Surely the bitterness of death is past.” 33 But Samuel said, “As your sword has made women childless, so will your mother be childless among women.” And Samuel put Agag to death before the Lord at Gilgal. 34 Then Samuel left for Ramah, but Saul went up to his home in Gibeah of Saul. 35 Until the day Samuel died, he did not go to see Saul again, though Samuel mourned for him. And the Lord regretted that he had made Saul king over Israel. 16 The Lord said to Samuel, “How long will you mourn for Saul, since I have rejected him as king over Israel? Fill your horn with oil and be on your way; I am sending you to Jesse of Bethlehem. I have chosen one of his sons to be king.” 2 But Samuel said, “How can I go? If Saul hears about it, he will kill me.” The Lord said, “Take a heifer with you and say, ‘I have come to sacrifice to the Lord.’ 3 Invite Jesse to the sacrifice, and I will show you what to do. You are to anoint for me the one I indicate.” 4 Samuel did what the Lord said. When he arrived at Bethlehem, the elders of the town trembled when they met him. They asked, “Do you come in peace?” 5 Samuel replied, “Yes, in peace; I have come to sacrifice to the Lord. Consecrate yourselves and come to the sacrifice with me.” Then he consecrated Jesse and his sons and invited them to the sacrifice. 6 When they arrived, Samuel saw Eliab and thought, “Surely the Lord’s anointed stands here before the Lord.” 7 But the Lord said to Samuel, “Do not consider his appearance or his height, for I have rejected him. The Lord does not look at the things people look at. People look at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.” 8 Then Jesse called Abinadab and had him pass in front of Samuel. But Samuel said, “The Lord has not chosen this one either.” 9 Jesse then had Shammah pass by, but Samuel said, “Nor has the Lord chosen this one.” 10 Jesse had seven of his sons pass before Samuel, but Samuel said to him, “The Lord has not chosen these.” 11 So he asked Jesse, “Are these all the sons you have?” “There is still the youngest,” Jesse answered. “He is tending the sheep.” Samuel said, “Send for him; we will not sit down until he arrives.” 12 So he sent for him and had him brought in. He was glowing with health and had a fine appearance and handsome features. Then the Lord said, “Rise and anoint him; this is the one.” 13 So Samuel took the horn of oil and anointed him in the presence of his brothers, and from that day on the Spirit of the Lord came powerfully upon David. Samuel then went to Ramah. 14 Now the Spirit of the Lord had departed from Saul, and an evil[d] spirit from the Lord tormented him. 15 Saul’s attendants said to him, “See, an evil spirit from God is tormenting you. 16 Let our lord command his servants here to search for someone who can play the lyre. He will play when the evil spirit from God comes on you, and you will feel better.” 17 So Saul said to his attendants, “Find someone who plays well and bring him to me.” 18 One of the servants answered, “I have seen a son of Jesse of Bethlehem who knows how to play the lyre. He is a brave man and a warrior. He speaks well and is a fine-looking man. And the Lord is with him.” 19 Then Saul sent messengers to Jesse and said, “Send me your son David, who is with the sheep.” 20 So Jesse took a donkey loaded with bread, a skin of wine and a young goat and sent them with his son David to Saul. 21 David came to Saul and entered his service. Saul liked him very much, and David became one of his armor-bearers. 22 Then Saul sent word to Jesse, saying, “Allow David to remain in my service, for I am pleased with him.” 23 Whenever the spirit from God came on Saul, David would take up his lyre and play. Then relief would come to Saul; he would feel better, and the evil spirit would leave him. 25 On one occasion an expert in the law stood up to test Jesus. “Teacher,” he asked, “what must I do to inherit eternal life?” 26 “What is written in the Law?” he replied. “How do you read it?” 27 He answered, “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind’[a]; and, ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’[b]” 28 “You have answered correctly,” Jesus replied. “Do this and you will live.” 29 But he wanted to justify himself, so he asked Jesus, “And who is my neighbor?” 30 In reply Jesus said: “A man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, when he was attacked by robbers. They stripped him of his clothes, beat him and went away, leaving him half dead. 31 A priest happened to be going down the same road, and when he saw the man, he passed by on the other side. 32 So too, a Levite, when he came to the place and saw him, passed by on the other side. 33 But a Samaritan, as he traveled, came where the man was; and when he saw him, he took pity on him. 34 He went to him and bandaged his wounds, pouring on oil and wine. Then he put the man on his own donkey, brought him to an inn and took care of him. 35 The next day he took out two denarii[c] and gave them to the innkeeper. ‘Look after him,’ he said, ‘and when I return, I will reimburse you for any extra expense you may have.’ 36 “Which of these three do you think was a neighbor to the man who fell into the hands of robbers?” 37 The expert in the law replied, “The one who had mercy on him.” Jesus told him, “Go and do likewise.” 38 As Jesus and his disciples were on their way, he came to a village where a woman named Martha opened her home to him. 39 She had a sister called Mary, who sat at the Lord’s feet listening to what he said. 40 But Martha was distracted by all the preparations that had to be made. She came to him and asked, “Lord, don’t you care that my sister has left me to do the work by myself? Tell her to help me!” 41 “Martha, Martha,” the Lord answered, “you are worried and upset about many things, 42 but few things are needed—or indeed only one.[d] Mary has chosen what is better, and it will not be taken away from her.” Holy Bible, New International Version®, NIV® Copyright ©1973, 1978, 1984, 2011 by Biblica, Inc.® Used by permission.

1 शमूएल 16 Nepali Bible: Easy-to-Read Version (ERV-NE) शमूएल बेतलेहेम जान्छन् 16 परमप्रभुले शमूएललाई भन्नुहुन्छ, “कति दिन शाऊलको निम्ति दुःखीत भइरहन्छस्? शाऊललाई मैले इस्राएलको राजपदबाट हटाइसकें तरै पनि त्यसको दुःख मानिरहन्छस्। तँसित भएको सींङ तेलले भर र बेतलेहेम जा। म तँलाई बेतलेहेमको यिशै नाउँको मानिसकहाँ पठाउँदैछु। यिशै बेतलेहेममा बस्छ। मैले त्यसकै एकजना छोरालाई नयाँ राजाको रूपमा चुनें।” 2 शमूएलले भने, “यदि म गएँ भने यो समाचार शाऊलले सुन्ने छ र मलाई मार्ने छ।” परमप्रभुले भन्नुभयो, “बेतलेहेममा जा साथमा एउटा बाछा पनि लानु र भन्नु, ‘परमप्रभुलाई बलि चढाउन आएको।’ 3 यिशैलाई बलि चढाउन बोलाउनु। त्यसपछि म तँलाई के गर्नु पर्छ भन्ने छु। तैंले त्यस मानिसलाई अभिषेक गर्नु जुन म तँलाई देखाउँनेछु।” 4 शमूएलले त्यसै गरे जो परमप्रभुले तिनलाई गर्नु भन्नु भएको थियो। शमूएल बेतलेहेम गए। बेतलेहेमका बूढा-प्रधानहरू डरले कामे। तिनीहरूले शमूएललाई भेटे र सोधे, “के तपाईं शान्ति पूर्वक आउँनु भयो?” 5 शमूएलले भने, “ज्यू, म शान्ति पूर्वक आएँ। म परमप्रभुलाई बलिदान चढाउन आएको हुँ। तपाईंहरू पनि पूजाका निम्ति तयार भएर बलिदान चढाउन मसित आउनु होस्।” शमूएलले यिशै र तिनका छोराहरूलाई तयार पारे। त्यस पछि शमूएलले तिनीहरूलाई बलिदान चढाउन बोलाए। 6 जब यिशै र तिनका छोराहरू आइ पुगे, शमूएलले एलीआबलाई देखे। शमूएलले सोचे, “निश्चय पनि परमप्रभुले छान्नु भएको मानिस यिनै हुनु पर्छ।” 7 तर परमप्रभुले शमूएललाई भन्नु भयो, “एलीआब अग्लो र सुन्दर छ। तर यस्तो विचार गर्नु हुदैन। परमेश्वरले ती चीजहरू हेर्नु हुन्न जो मानिसहरूले हेर्छन्। मानिसले बाहिरी रूप मात्र हेर्छ, तर परमप्रभुले उसको हृदय हेर्नुहुन्छ। एलीआब त्यो ठीक मानिस होइन।” 8 त्यसपछि यिशैले तिनका दोस्रो छोरा अबीनादाबलाई बोलाए। अबीनादाब शमूएलकै छेउ भएर हिंडे। तर शमूएलले भने, “होइन, यसलाई पनि परमप्रभुले चुन्नु भएको छैन।” 9 त्यसपछि यिशैले शम्मालाई शमूएलको छेउमा बोलाए। तर शमूएलले भने, “होइन, यसलाई पनि परमप्रभुले चुन्नु भएको होइन।” 10 यिशैले सातौं छोरा देखाए। तर शमूएलले यिशैलाई भने, “परमप्रभुले यिनीहरू मध्ये कसैलाई पनि चुन्नु भएको छैन।” 11 शमूएले यिशैलाई सोधे, “के तपाईंका छोराहरू यति नै हुन्?” यिशैले भने, “होइन अर्को छोरा छ सब भन्दा कान्छो, तर अहिले भेंडा चराउँदैछ।” शमूएलले भने, “उसलाई यहाँ तुरून्तै लिन पठाऊ। ऊ नआउँन्जेल सम्म हामी खान बस्ने छैनौं।” 12 यिशैले कान्छो छोरा लिन तुरून्तै कसैलाई पठाए। त्यो छोरा हेर्दै राम्रो थियो, रातो वर्णको युवक। ऊ साँच्चै सुन्दर थियो। परमप्रभुले शमूएललाई भन्नु भयो, “उठेर उसलाई अभिषेक गर। त्यहि एउटा हो।” 13 शमूएलले सींङबाट तेल निकालेर यिशैको कान्छा छोराको शिरमा दाजूहरूका अगाडी त्यो खन्याई दिए। परमप्रभुको आत्मा एकदमै शक्तिको साथ दाऊदमाथि त्यस दिन देखि उत्रियो। त्यस पछि शमूएल रामा घरतिर फर्के। शाऊललाई दुष्ट आत्माले सताउन थाल्यो 14 परमप्रभुको आत्माले शाऊललाई त्यागि दियो। परमप्रभुले दुष्ट आत्मा शाऊल कहाँ पठाउँनु भयो। त्यसले शाऊललाई साह्रै सतायो। 15 शाऊलको नोकरले भन्यो, “परमेश्वरद्वारा पठाउँनु भएको दुष्ट आत्माले तपाईंलाई साह्रै दुःख दियो। 16 हामीलाई आदेश दिनुहोस् हामीले कुनै त्यस्तो व्यक्ति खोज्न सकौं जसले वीणा बजाउन सक्छ। यदि परमप्रभुबाट आएको त्यस दुष्ट आत्माले तपाईंलाई सताउन थालेछ भने त्यस मानिसले वीणा बजाउन थाल्नेछ र तपाईंलाई आराम अनुभव हुनेछ।” 17 शाऊलले नोकर-चाकरहरूलाई भने, “एउटा मानिसलाई मेरो निम्ति खोज जसले असल तरिकाले सँगीत बजाउँछ। त्यसलाई म कहाँ ल्याऊ।” 18 एउटा नोकरले भन्यो, “एउटा यिशै नाउँका मानिस छन्। बेतलेहेममा बस्छन्। मैले देखेको छु यिशैको छोरा। उसले कसरी वीणा बजाउनु पर्छ जान्दछ। ऊ साह्रै वीर र युद्ध गर्न जान्दछ। ऊ साह्रै फुर्तिलो र सुन्दर छ। परमप्रभु पनि उसैको साथ हुनुहुन्छ।” 19 यसकारण शाऊलले समाचार दिने मानिसलाई यिशैकहाँ पठाए। तिनीहरूले यिशैलाई भने, “तिम्रो दाऊद नाउँको छोरा छ। जसले तिम्रा भेंडाहरू चराउँछ। उसलाई मकहाँ पठाऊ।” 20 यिशैले शाऊलका निम्ति उपहारको बन्दोबस्त गर्यो। यिशैले उपहारको रूपमा एउटा गधा, केही रोटी, एक मशक दाखरस र एउटा बाख्राको पाठो तयार पार्यो। यिशैले ती चीजहरू दाऊदका साथ लगाएर शाऊल कहाँ पठायो। 21 यसरी दाऊद शाऊल कहाँ गयो र तिनका अगाडि हाजिर भयो। शाऊलले दाऊदलाई धेरै प्रेम गरे। दाऊद शाऊलको अस्त्र बोक्ने सहयोगी भए। 22 शाऊलले यिशैलाई खबर पठाए, “दाऊद बसेर मेरो सेवा गरोस्। ऊ मलाई असाध्यै मन पर्यो।” 23 जब परमेश्वरले पठाएको दुष्ट आत्माले शाऊललाई दुःख दिन थाल्थ्यो, दाऊदले हातमा वीणा लिएर बजाउँन थाल्दथे र दुष्ट आत्माले शाऊललाई छोडि हाल्थ्यो र शाऊल असल हुन्थे।
