Today's audio is from the CEB. Switch to the CEB to read along with the audio. 3 Joram[a] son of Ahab became king of Israel in Samaria in the eighteenth year of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, and he reigned twelve years. 2 He did evil in the eyes of the Lord, but not as his father and mother had done. He got rid of the sacred stone of Baal that his father had made. 3 Nevertheless he clung to the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat, which he had caused Israel to commit; he did not turn away from them. 4 Now Mesha king of Moab raised sheep, and he had to pay the king of Israel a tribute of a hundred thousand lambs and the wool of a hundred thousand rams. 5 But after Ahab died, the king of Moab rebelled against the king of Israel. 6 So at that time King Joram set out from Samaria and mobilized all Israel. 7 He also sent this message to Jehoshaphat king of Judah: “The king of Moab has rebelled against me. Will you go with me to fight against Moab?” “I will go with you,” he replied. “I am as you are, my people as your people, my horses as your horses.” 8 “By what route shall we attack?” he asked. “Through the Desert of Edom,” he answered. 9 So the king of Israel set out with the king of Judah and the king of Edom. After a roundabout march of seven days, the army had no more water for themselves or for the animals with them. 10 “What!” exclaimed the king of Israel. “Has the Lord called us three kings together only to deliver us into the hands of Moab?” 11 But Jehoshaphat asked, “Is there no prophet of the Lord here, through whom we may inquire of the Lord?” An officer of the king of Israel answered, “Elisha son of Shaphat is here. He used to pour water on the hands of Elijah.[b]” 12 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 Elisha said to the king of Israel, “Why do you want to involve me? Go to the prophets of your father and the prophets of your mother.” “No,” the king of Israel answered, “because it was the Lord who called us three kings together to deliver us into the hands of Moab.” 14 Elisha said, “As surely as the Lord Almighty lives, whom I serve, if I did not have respect for the presence of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, I would not pay any attention to you. 15 But now bring me a harpist.” While the harpist was playing, the hand of the Lord came on Elisha 16 and he said, “This is what the Lord says: I will fill this valley with pools of water. 17 For this is what the Lord says: You will see neither wind nor rain, yet this valley will be filled with water, and you, your cattle and your other animals will drink. 18 This is an easy thing in the eyes of the Lord; he will also deliver Moab into your hands. 19 You will overthrow every fortified city and every major town. You will cut down every good tree, stop up all the springs, and ruin every good field with stones.” 20 The next morning, about the time for offering the sacrifice, there it was—water flowing from the direction of Edom! And the land was filled with water. 21 Now all the Moabites had heard that the kings had come to fight against them; so every man, young and old, who could bear arms was called up and stationed on the border. 22 When they got up early in the morning, the sun was shining on the water. To the Moabites across the way, the water looked red—like blood. 23 “That’s blood!” they said. “Those kings must have fought and slaughtered each other. Now to the plunder, Moab!” 24 But when the Moabites came to the camp of Israel, the Israelites rose up and fought them until they fled. And the Israelites invaded the land and slaughtered the Moabites. 25 They destroyed the towns, and each man threw a stone on every good field until it was covered. They stopped up all the springs and cut down every good tree. Only Kir Hareseth was left with its stones in place, but men armed with slings surrounded it and attacked it. 26 When the king of Moab saw that the battle had gone against him, he took with him seven hundred swordsmen to break through to the king of Edom, but they failed. 27 Then he took his firstborn son, who was to succeed him as king, and offered him as a sacrifice on the city wall. The fury against Israel was great; they withdrew and returned to their own land. 4 The wife of a man from the company of the prophets cried out to Elisha, “Your servant my husband is dead, and you know that he revered the Lord. But now his creditor is coming to take my two boys as his slaves.” 2 Elisha replied to her, “How can I help you? Tell me, what do you have in your house?” “Your servant has nothing there at all,” she said, “except a small jar of olive oil.” 3 Elisha said, “Go around and ask all your neighbors for empty jars. Don’t ask for just a few. 4 Then go inside and shut the door behind you and your sons. Pour oil into all the jars, and as each is filled, put it to one side.” 5 She left him and shut the door behind her and her sons. They brought the jars to her and she kept pouring. 6 When all the jars were full, she said to her son, “Bring me another one.” But he replied, “There is not a jar left.” Then the oil stopped flowing. 7 She went and told the man of God, and he said, “Go, sell the oil and pay your debts. You and your sons can live on what is left.” 8 One day Elisha went to Shunem. And a well-to-do woman was there, who urged him to stay for a meal. So whenever he came by, he stopped there to eat. 9 She said to her husband, “I know that this man who often comes our way is a holy man of God. 10 Let’s make a small room on the roof and put in it a bed and a table, a chair and a lamp for him. Then he can stay there whenever he comes to us.” 11 One day when Elisha came, he went up to his room and lay down there. 12 He said to his servant Gehazi, “Call the Shunammite.” So he called her, and she stood before him. 13 Elisha said to him, “Tell her, ‘You have gone to all this trouble for us. Now what can be done for you? Can we speak on your behalf to the king or the commander of the army?’” She replied, “I have a home among my own people.” 14 “What can be done for her?” Elisha asked. Gehazi said, “She has no son, and her husband is old.” 15 Then Elisha said, “Call her.” So he called her, and she stood in the doorway. 16 “About this time next year,” Elisha said, “you will hold a son in your arms.” “No, my lord!” she objected. “Please, man of God, don’t mislead your servant!” 17 But the woman became pregnant, and the next year about that same time she gave birth to a son, just as Elisha had told her. 8 In Lystra there sat a man who was lame. He had been that way from birth and had never walked. 9 He listened to Paul as he was speaking. Paul looked directly at him, saw that he had faith to be healed 10 and called out, “Stand up on your feet!” At that, the man jumped up and began to walk. 11 When the crowd saw what Paul had done, they shouted in the Lycaonian language, “The gods have come down to us in human form!” 12 Barnabas they called Zeus, and Paul they called Hermes because he was the chief speaker. 13 The priest of Zeus, whose temple was just outside the city, brought bulls and wreaths to the city gates because he and the crowd wanted to offer sacrifices to them. 14 But when the apostles Barnabas and Paul heard of this, they tore their clothes and rushed out into the crowd, shouting: 15 “Friends, why are you doing this? We too are only human, like you. We are bringing you good news, telling you to turn from these worthless things to the living God, who made the heavens and the earth and the sea and everything in them. 16 In the past, he let all nations go their own way. 17 Yet he has not left himself without testimony: He has shown kindness by giving you rain from heaven and crops in their seasons; he provides you with plenty of food and fills your hearts with joy.” 18 Even with these words, they had difficulty keeping the crowd from sacrificing to them. 19 Then some Jews came from Antioch and Iconium and won the crowd over. They stoned Paul and dragged him outside the city, thinking he was dead. 20 But after the disciples had gathered around him, he got up and went back into the city. The next day he and Barnabas left for Derbe. 21 They preached the gospel in that city and won a large number of disciples. Then they returned to Lystra, Iconium and Antioch, 22 strengthening the disciples and encouraging them to remain true to the faith. “We must go through many hardships to enter the kingdom of God,” they said. 23 Paul and Barnabas appointed elders[a] for them in each church and, with prayer and fasting, committed them to the Lord, in whom they had put their trust. 24 After going through Pisidia, they came into Pamphylia, 25 and when they had preached the word in Perga, they went down to Attalia. 26 From Attalia they sailed back to Antioch, where they had been committed to the grace of God for the work they had now completed. 27 On arriving there, they gathered the church together and reported all that God had done through them and how he had opened a door of faith to the Gentiles. 28 And they stayed there a long time with the disciples. 1 Rescue me, Lord, from evildoers; protect me from the violent, 2 who devise evil plans in their hearts and stir up war every day. 3 They make their tongues as sharp as a serpent’s; the poison of vipers is on their lips.[b] 4 Keep me safe, Lord, from the hands of the wicked; protect me from the violent, who devise ways to trip my feet. 5 The arrogant have hidden a snare for me; they have spread out the cords of their net and have set traps for me along my path. 6 I say to the Lord, “You are my God.” Hear, Lord, my cry for mercy. 7 Sovereign Lord, my strong deliverer, you shield my head in the day of battle. 8 Do not grant the wicked their desires, Lord; do not let their plans succeed. 9 Those who surround me proudly rear their heads; may the mischief of their lips engulf them. 10 May burning coals fall on them; may they be thrown into the fire, into miry pits, never to rise. 11 May slanderers not be established in the land; may disaster hunt down the violent. 12 I know that the Lord secures justice for the poor and upholds the cause of the needy. 13 Surely the righteous will praise your name, and the upright will live in your presence. 22 A cheerful heart is good medicine, but a crushed spirit dries up the bones.

2 राजा 3Nepali Bible: Easy-to-Read Version (ERV-NE) योराम इस्राएलका राजा हुन्छन् 3 आहाबका छोरा योराम सामरियामा इस्राएलका राजा भए। यहोशापात यहूदाको राजा हुँदा अठाह्रौं बर्षकोसमयमा उनले शासन शुरू गरे। योरामले बाह्र बर्ष शासन गरे। 2 योरामले ती कामहरू गरे जसलाई परमप्रभुले भूल कार्य भन्नु भएको थियो। तर योराम आफ्ना पिता र माता जस्ता थिएनन् किनभने उनले ती खाँबाहरू उखाले जसलाई उनका पिताले बालको पूजा गर्नका लागि बनाएका थिए। 3 तर उनले नबातका छोरा यरोबामको जस्तो पाप गरिनै रहे। यारोबामले इस्राएलीहरूलाई पाप गर्न लगाए। योरामले यारोबामको पाप गर्न रोकेनन्। मोआब इस्राएलबाट छुट्टिन्छ 4 मेशा मोआबका राजा थिए। मेशासँग धेरै भेंडा थिए। मेशाले एक लाख भेंडा र एक लाख भेंडाका ऊन इस्राएलका राजालाई दिए। 5 तर जब आहाब मोआबका राजा इस्राएलका राजाको विरूद्धमा बागी भए। 6 तब राजा योराम सामरियाबाट निस्किए अनि इस्राएलका मानिसहरूलाई भेला गरे। 7 योरामले यहूदाका राजा यहोशापात कहाँ दूतहरूलाई पठाए। योरामले भने, “मोआबका राजा मेरो विरूद्धमा बागी भएका छन्। के तिमी मोआबको विरूद्धमा लड्न मसँग जाने छौ?” यहोशापातले भने, “अवश्य, म तिमीसँग जानेछु। मेरो मानिसहरू तिम्रा मानिसहरू जस्तै हुनेछन्। र मेरो घोडाहरू तिम्रा घोडाहरू जस्तै हुनेछन्।” तीनजना राजाहरू एलीशासँग सल्लाह माग्छन् 8 यहोशापातले योरामलाई सोधे, “हामी कुन बाटोबाट जाऊँ?” योरामले जवाफ दिए, “हामी एदोमको मरुभूमिबाट जानुपर्छ।” 9 यसकारण इस्राएलका राजा यहूदा र एदोमका राजाहरूसँगै गए। तिनीहरूलाई यात्रा गर्न सात दिन लाग्यो, त्यहाँ सेना र अरू पशुहरूका लागि पर्याप्त पानी थिएन। 10 अन्तमा, इस्राएलका राजा योरामले भने, “हाय, मेरो विचारमा मोआबीलीहरूबाट परास्त गर्नका लागि परमप्रभुले हामी तीन जना राजाहरूलाई एउटा ठाउँमा ल्याउनुभयो।” 11 तर यहोशापातले भने, “के यहाँ परमप्रभुका कुनै एकजना अगमवक्ताछन् यदि यहाँ छन भने हामी अगमवक्तालाई सोध्नु पर्छ जे परमप्रभु भन्नु हुन्छ हामीले त्यही गर्नु पर्छ।” इस्राएलका राजाका सेवकहरूमध्ये एक जनाले भने, “शापातका छोरा एलीशा यहाँ छन्। एलीशा एलियाका सेवक थिए।” 12 यहोशापातले भने, “परमप्रभुको वाणी एलीशासँग छ।” यसकारण इस्राएलका राजा योराम, यहोशापात अनि एदोमका राजा एलीशालाई भेट्न गए। 13 एलीशाले इस्राएलका राजा (योरामलाई) भने, “तपाईं मबाट के चाहनुहुन्छ? आफ्ना माता-पिताका अगमवक्ताहरूकहाँ जानुहोस्!” इस्राएलका राजाले एलीशालाई भने, “होइन, हामी तपाईसँग भेट्न आएका छौं किनभने परमप्रभुले हामी तीन जना राजाहरूलाई सँगै भेला हुन बोलाउनु भएको छ ताकि मोआबीहरूले हामीलाई परास्त गर्न नसकोस्।” 14 एलीशाले भने, “यहूदाका राजा यहोशापातको म सम्मान गर्छु अनि म सर्वशक्तिमान परमप्रभुको सेवा गर्दछु। उनी जिउँदै छन् भनेर नै म यहोशापातसँग मात्र भेट्न यहाँ आएँ। म तिम्रो अघि साँच्चो कुरा भन्छु, यदि यहोशापात यहाँ नभए, म तिमी प्रति ध्यान दिने थिईनँ। म सम्पूर्ण रूपमा तिम्रो अवहेलना गर्ने थिएँ। 15 तर अब मकहाँ यस्तो मानिस ल्याऊ जसले वीणा बजाउँछ।” जब मानिसले वीणा बजायो, एलीशामा परमप्रभुको आत्मा आउनुभयो। 16 तब एलिशाले भने, “परमप्रभु भन्नुहुन्छ कन्दरामा दुलो खन। 17 परमप्रभु भन्नुहुन्छः तिमीले हावा देख्ने छैनौं, तिमीले पानी परेको देख्ने छैनौं। तर त्यो बेंसी पानीले भरिने छ। तब तिमी र तिम्रा गाईहरू र अरू पशुहरूले पिउने पानी पाउने छन्। 18 परमप्रभुका लागि यो गर्न सजिलो छ। उहाँले तिमीहरूलाई मोआबीहरूलाई जिताउनुहुनेछ। 19 तिमीहरूले प्रत्येक दरिलो शहर अनि प्रत्येक राम्रो शहरमाथि आक्रमण गर्ने छौ। तिमीहरूले प्रत्येक राम्रो रूख काट्ने छौ। तिमीहरूले सबै पानीको श्रोतहरू बन्द गर्ने छौ। तिमीहरूले प्रत्येक राम्रो खेतलाई ढुङ्गाले नष्ट पार्ने छौ जुन तिमीले फ्याँक्ने छौ।” 20 बिहानै बिहानको बलि दिने समयमा एदोमतिरबाट पानी बग्न थाल्यो अनि बेंसी भरियो। 21 मोआबका मानिसहरूले सुने, राजाहरू तिनीहरूको विरोधमा लडाईँ गर्न आएका छन्। यसकारण मोआबमा मानिसहरूले ती सबै मानिसहरूलाई जो बूढो भए पनि कवच धारणगर्न सक्थे तिनीहरूलाई जम्मा गरे। तिनीहरूले तयार भएर लडाईँका लागि सीमानामा पर्खिने काम गरे। 22 मोआबका मानिसहरू त्यस बिहान सबेरै उठे। उदाउँदै गरेको घाम घाँटीको पानी माथि चम्किरहेको थियो, अनि यो मोआबका मानिसहरूको रगत जस्तो देखिन्थ्यो। 23 मोआबका मानिसहरूले भने, “रगत हेर! राजाहरूले अवश्य नै एक अर्कासँग लडाईँ गरे। तिनीहरूले एक अर्कालाई सर्वनाश पारे होलान्। हामी लाशहरूबाट बहुमूल्य वस्तुहरू लिन जाऔं।” 24 मोआबी मानिसहरू इस्राएलीहरूको शिबिरमा आए। तर इस्राएलीहरू बाहिर निस्किए अनि मोआबी सेनामाथि आक्रमण गरे। इस्राएलीहरूले मोआबीहरूलाई लखेटे। इस्राएलीहरूले मोआबीसँग लडाइँ गर्न तिनीहरूलाई मोआबसम्म पछ्याए। 25 इस्राएलीहरूले शहरहरू असल पारे। तिनीहरूले मोआबमा प्रत्येक असल खेतमा ढुङ्गा फ्याँके। तिनीहरूले पानीका सबै मुहानहरू बन्दगरे र तिनीहरूले सबै असल रूख काटेर ढालिदिए। कीरहेरशेत मात्र ढुङ्गाको पर्खालसँग छोडियो। तर घुँयेत्रो हान्ने मानिसहरूले कीरहेरशेतलाई घेरे र त्यसमाथि आक्रमण गरे। 26 मोआबका राजाले थाह पाए, युद्ध जित्न उनकालागि साह्रै नै मुश्किल छ। यसकारण उनले तरवारसमेत सात सय मानिसहरूलाई एदोमका राजाको हत्या गर्न अनि सेनालाई परास्त गर्न पठाए। तर तिनीहरूले एदोमका राजालाई परास्त गर्न सकेनन्। 27 तब मोआबका राजाले आफ्नो जेठो छोरालाई लगे। यो त्यही छोरा थियो जो उनीपछि राजा हुनेवाला थिए। शहरको चारैतिर भित्ताहरूमाथि मोआबका राजाले आफ्नो छोरालाई होमबलिको रूपमा बलि चढाउन तयार भए। ठूलो रीस इस्राएलमाथि पर्यो। यसकारण इस्राएलका मानिसहरू मोआबका राजालाई छोडेर आफ्नो देशतिर फर्किए।
