His mother’s name was Jekoliah; she was from Jerusalem. 3 He did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, just as his father Amaziah had done. 4 The high places, however, were not removed; the people continued to offer sacrifices and burn incense there. 5 The Lord afflicted the king with leprosy[b] until the day he died, and he lived in a separate house.[c] Jotham the king’s son had charge of the palace and governed the people of the land. 6 As for the other events of Azariah’s reign, and all he did, are they not written in the book of the annals of the kings of Judah? 7 Azariah rested with his ancestors and was buried near them in the City of David. And Jotham his son succeeded him as king. 8 In the thirty-eighth year of Azariah king of Judah, Zechariah son of Jeroboam became king of Israel in Samaria, and he reigned six months. 9 He did evil in the eyes of the Lord, as his predecessors had done. He did not turn away from the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat, which he had caused Israel to commit. 10 Shallum son of Jabesh conspired against Zechariah. He attacked him in front of the people,[d] assassinated him and succeeded him as king. 11 The other events of Zechariah’s reign are written in the book of the annals of the kings of Israel. 12 So the word of the Lord spoken to Jehu was fulfilled: “Your descendants will sit on the throne of Israel to the fourth generation.”[e] 13 Shallum son of Jabesh became king in the thirty-ninth year of Uzziah king of Judah, and he reigned in Samaria one month. 14 Then Menahem son of Gadi went from Tirzah up to Samaria. He attacked Shallum son of Jabesh in Samaria, assassinated him and succeeded him as king. 15 The other events of Shallum’s reign, and the conspiracy he led, are written in the book of the annals of the kings of Israel. 16 At that time Menahem, starting out from Tirzah, attacked Tiphsah and everyone in the city and its vicinity, because they refused to open their gates. He sacked Tiphsah and ripped open all the pregnant women. 17 In the thirty-ninth year of Azariah king of Judah, Menahem son of Gadi became king of Israel, and he reigned in Samaria ten years. 18 He did evil in the eyes of the Lord. During his entire reign he did not turn away from the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat, which he had caused Israel to commit. 19 Then Pul[f] king of Assyria invaded the land, and Menahem gave him a thousand talents[g] of silver to gain his support and strengthen his own hold on the kingdom. 20 Menahem exacted this money from Israel. Every wealthy person had to contribute fifty shekels[h] of silver to be given to the king of Assyria. So the king of Assyria withdrew and stayed in the land no longer. 21 As for the other events of Menahem’s reign, and all he did, are they not written in the book of the annals of the kings of Israel? 22 Menahem rested with his ancestors. And Pekahiah his son succeeded him as king. 23 In the fiftieth year of Azariah king of Judah, Pekahiah son of Menahem became king of Israel in Samaria, and he reigned two years. 24 Pekahiah did evil in the eyes of the Lord. He did not turn away from the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat, which he had caused Israel to commit. 25 One of his chief officers, Pekah son of Remaliah, conspired against him. Taking fifty men of Gilead with him, he assassinated Pekahiah, along with Argob and Arieh, in the citadel of the royal palace at Samaria. So Pekah killed Pekahiah and succeeded him as king. 26 The other events of Pekahiah’s reign, and all he did, are written in the book of the annals of the kings of Israel. 27 In the fifty-second year of Azariah king of Judah, Pekah son of Remaliah became king of Israel in Samaria, and he reigned twenty years. 28 He did evil in the eyes of the Lord. He did not turn away from the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat, which he had caused Israel to commit. 29 In the time of Pekah king of Israel, Tiglath-Pileser king of Assyria came and took Ijon, Abel Beth Maakah, Janoah, Kedesh and Hazor. He took Gilead and Galilee, including all the land of Naphtali, and deported the people to Assyria. 30 Then Hoshea son of Elah conspired against Pekah son of Remaliah. He attacked and assassinated him, and then succeeded him as king in the twentieth year of Jotham son of Uzziah. 31 As for the other events of Pekah’s reign, and all he did, are they not written in the book of the annals of the kings of Israel? 32 In the second year of Pekah son of Remaliah king of Israel, Jotham son of Uzziah king of Judah began to reign. 33 He was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem sixteen years. His mother’s name was Jerusha daughter of Zadok. 34 He did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, just as his father Uzziah had done. 35 The high places, however, were not removed; the people continued to offer sacrifices and burn incense there. Jotham rebuilt the Upper Gate of the temple of the Lord. 36 As for the other events of Jotham’s reign, and what he did, are they not written in the book of the annals of the kings of Judah? 37 (In those days the Lord began to send Rezin king of Aram and Pekah son of Remaliah against Judah.) 38 Jotham rested with his ancestors and was buried with them in the City of David, the city of his father. And Ahaz his son succeeded him as king. 16 In the seventeenth year of Pekah son of Remaliah, Ahaz son of Jotham king of Judah began to reign. 2 Ahaz was twenty years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem sixteen years. Unlike David his father, he did not do what was right in the eyes of the Lord his God. 3 He followed the ways of the kings of Israel and even sacrificed his son in the fire, engaging in the detestable practices of the nations the Lord had driven out before the Israelites. 4 He offered sacrifices and burned incense at the high places, on the hilltops and under every spreading tree. 5 Then Rezin king of Aram and Pekah son of Remaliah king of Israel marched up to fight against Jerusalem and besieged Ahaz, but they could not overpower him. 6 At that time, Rezin king of Aram recovered Elath for Aram by driving out the people of Judah. Edomites then moved into Elath and have lived there to this day. 7 Ahaz sent messengers to say to Tiglath-Pileser king of Assyria, “I am your servant and vassal. Come up and save me out of the hand of the king of Aram and of the king of Israel, who are attacking me.” 8 And Ahaz took the silver and gold found in the temple of the Lord and in the treasuries of the royal palace and sent it as a gift to the king of Assyria. 9 The king of Assyria complied by attacking Damascus and capturing it. He deported its inhabitants to Kir and put Rezin to death. 10 Then King Ahaz went to Damascus to meet Tiglath-Pileser king of Assyria. He saw an altar in Damascus and sent to Uriah the priest a sketch of the altar, with detailed plans for its construction. 11 So Uriah the priest built an altar in accordance with all the plans that King Ahaz had sent from Damascus and finished it before King Ahaz returned. 12 When the king came back from Damascus and saw the altar, he approached it and presented offerings[i] on it. 13 He offered up his burnt offering and grain offering, poured out his drink offering, and splashed the blood of his fellowship offerings against the altar. 14 As for the bronze altar that stood before the Lord, he brought it from the front of the temple—from between the new altar and the temple of the Lord—and put it on the north side of the new altar. 15 King Ahaz then gave these orders to Uriah the priest: “On the large new altar, offer the morning burnt offering and the evening grain offering, the king’s burnt offering and his grain offering, and the burnt offering of all the people of the land, and their grain offering and their drink offering. Splash against this altar the blood of all the burnt offerings and sacrifices. But I will use the bronze altar for seeking guidance.” 16 And Uriah the priest did just as King Ahaz had ordered. 17 King Ahaz cut off the side panels and removed the basins from the movable stands. He removed the Sea from the bronze bulls that supported it and set it on a stone base. 18 He took away the Sabbath canopy[j] that had been built at the temple and removed the royal entryway outside the temple of the Lord, in deference to the king of Assyria. 19 As for the other events of the reign of Ahaz, and what he did, are they not written in the book of the annals of the kings of Judah? 20 Ahaz rested with his ancestors and was buried with them in the City of David. And Hezekiah his son succeeded him as king. 13 Some Jews who went around driving out evil spirits tried to invoke the name of the Lord Jesus over those who were demon-possessed. They would say, “In the name of the Jesus whom Paul preaches, I command you to come out.” 14 Seven sons of Sceva, a Jewish chief priest, were doing this. 15 One day the evil spirit answered them, “Jesus I know, and Paul I know about, but who are you?” 16 Then the man who had the evil spirit jumped on them and overpowered them all. He gave them such a beating that they ran out of the house naked and bleeding. 17 When this became known to the Jews and Greeks living in Ephesus, they were all seized with fear, and the name of the Lord Jesus was held in high honor. 18 Many of those who believed now came and openly confessed what they had done. 19 A number who had practiced sorcery brought their scrolls together and burned them publicly. When they calculated the value of the scrolls, the total came to fifty thousand drachmas.[a] 20 In this way the word of the Lord spread widely and grew in power. 21 After all this had happened, Paul decided[b] to go to Jerusalem, passing through Macedonia and Achaia. “After I have been there,” he said, “I must visit Rome also.” 22 He sent two of his helpers, Timothy and Erastus, to Macedonia, while he stayed in the province of Asia a little longer. 23 About that time there arose a great disturbance about the Way. 24 A silversmith named Demetrius, who made silver shrines of Artemis, brought in a lot of business for the craftsmen there. 25 He called them together, along with the workers in related trades, and said: “You know, my friends, that we receive a good income from this business. 26 And you see and hear how this fellow Paul has convinced and led astray large numbers of people here in Ephesus and in practically the whole province of Asia. He says that gods made by human hands are no gods at all. 27 There is danger not only that our trade will lose its good name, but also that the temple of the great goddess Artemis will be discredited; and the goddess herself, who is worshiped throughout the province of Asia and the world, will be robbed of her divine majesty.” 28 When they heard this, they were furious and began shouting: “Great is Artemis of the Ephesians!” 29 Soon the whole city was in an uproar. The people seized Gaius and Aristarchus, Paul’s traveling companions from Macedonia, and all of them rushed into the theater together. 30 Paul wanted to appear before the crowd, but the disciples would not let him. 31 Even some of the officials of the province, friends of Paul, sent him a message begging him not to venture into the theater. 32 The assembly was in confusion: Some were shouting one thing, some another. Most of the people did not even know why they were there. 33 The Jews in the crowd pushed Alexander to the front, and they shouted instructions to him. He motioned for silence in order to make a defense before the people. 34 But when they realized he was a Jew, they all shouted in unison for about two hours: “Great is Artemis of the Ephesians!” 35 The city clerk quieted the crowd and said: “Fellow Ephesians, doesn’t all the world know that the city of Ephesus is the guardian of the temple of the great Artemis and of her image, which fell from heaven? 36 Therefore, since these facts are undeniable, you ought to calm down and not do anything rash. 37 You have brought these men here, though they have neither robbed temples nor blasphemed our goddess. 38 If, then, Demetrius and his fellow craftsmen have a grievance against anybody, the courts are open and there are proconsuls. They can press charges. 39 If there is anything further you want to bring up, it must be settled in a legal assembly. 40 As it is, we are in danger of being charged with rioting because of what happened today. In that case we would not be able to account for this commotion, since there is no reason for it.” 41 After he had said this, he dismissed the assembly. 1 Praise the Lord.[a] How good it is to sing praises to our God, how pleasant and fitting to praise him! 2 The Lord builds up Jerusalem; he gathers the exiles of Israel. 3 He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds. 4 He determines the number of the stars and calls them each by name. 5 Great is our Lord and mighty in power; his understanding has no limit. 6 The Lord sustains the humble but casts the wicked to the ground. 7 Sing to the Lord with grateful praise; make music to our God on the harp. 8 He covers the sky with clouds; he supplies the earth with rain and makes grass grow on the hills. 9 He provides food for the cattle and for the young ravens when they call. 10 His pleasure is not in the strength of the horse, nor his delight in the legs of the warrior; 11 the Lord delights in those who fear him, who put their hope in his unfailing love. 12 Extol the Lord, Jerusalem; praise your God, Zion. 13 He strengthens the bars of your gates and blesses your people within you. 14 He grants peace to your borders and satisfies you with the finest of wheat. 15 He sends his command to the earth; his word runs swiftly. 16 He spreads the snow like wool and scatters the frost like ashes. 17 He hurls down his hail like pebbles. Who can withstand his icy blast? 18 He sends his word and melts them; he stirs up his breezes, and the waters flow. 19 He has revealed his word to Jacob, his laws and decrees to Israel. 20 He has done this for no other nation; they do not know his laws.[b] Praise the Lord. 4 The words of the mouth are deep waters, but the fountain of wisdom is a rushing stream. 5 It is not good to be partial to the wicked and so deprive the innocent of justice.

1 राजा 15Nepali Bible: Easy-to-Read Version (ERV-NE) यहूदाका राजा अबियाम 15 अबियाम यहूदाका नयाँ राजा भए। नाबातका छोरा यारोबामले इस्राएलमा शासन गर्दा अठाह्रौं बर्षमा यस्तो भयो। 2 अबियामले यरूशलेममा तीन बर्ष शासन गरे। उनकी आमाको नाउँ माका थियो। तिनी अब्शालोमकी छोरी थिइन्। 3 उनले त्यस्तै सबै पापका कामहरू गरे जस्तो उनका पिताले गरेका थिए। अबियाम परमप्रभु आफ्नो परमेश्वर प्रति विश्वासी थिएनन्। यसकारण उनी आफ्नो हजूरबा दाऊद जस्तो विश्वासी थिएनन्। 4 दाऊदको खातिर परमप्रभुले उसलाई एउटा सन्तान यरूशलेमा दिनुभयो। परमप्रभुले दाऊदका सन्तानलाई यरूशलेममाथि शासन गर्न दिनुभयो अनि यसलाई रक्षा गर्ने प्रतिज्ञा गर्नु भयो। 5 दाऊदले सधैँ नै सही काम गरे जो परमप्रभुले चाहानु हुन्थ्यो। उनले सधैँ नै परमप्रभुको आदेश पालन गरे। एक पटक दाऊदले परमप्रभुको आदेश पालन गरेनन् जुन समयमा दाऊदले हित्ती उरीयाहको विरोधमा पाप गरेका थिए। 6 रहबाम र यारोबामको बिचमा युद्ध अबियामको जीवन भरी नै चलिरह्यो। 7 अबियामले जे काम गरे सबै नै यहूदाका राजाहरूको इतिहासको पुस्तकमा लेखिएको छ। अबियाम राजा भएको समयमा अबियाम र यरोबामबीच युद्ध भइरह्यो। 8 जब अबियामको मृत्यु भयो उसलाई दाऊदको शहरमा गाडियो। अबियामको छोरा आसा नयाँ राजा भए। यहूदाका राजा आसा 9 इस्राएलमा यारोबाम राजा भएको बिसौं बर्षमा आसा यहूदाका राजा भए। 10 आसाले यरूशलेममा 41 बर्ष शासन गरे। उनकी हजूरआमाको नाउँ “माका” थियो। अनि “माका” अब्शालोमकी छोरी थिइन्। 11 आसाले आफ्ना पिता-पुर्खा दाऊदले गरे जस्तैं परमप्रभुले जे स्वीकृत गर्नु भएको थियो त्यो कामहरू मात्र गरे। 12 त्यस समयमा यस्ता मानिसहरू थिए जो आफ्नो शरीर यौनका लागि बेचेर अरू देवताहरूको सेवा गर्दथे। आसाले ती मानिसहरूलाई देश छोड्न वाध्य गराए। आसाले ती मूर्तिहरू पनि हटाए जो उनका पुर्खाहरूले बनाएका थिए। 13 आसाले उसको आमा माकालाई पनि रानीको पदबाट हटाईदिए। माकाले अशेरा देवीको पूजा गर्न घृणित खाम्बाहरू बनाएकी थिइन्। आसाले ती खाम्बाहरू ढालिदिए अनि तिनीहरूलाई किदरोन बेंसीमा जलाईदिए। 14 उसले अग्ला ठाउँको पूजास्थानहरू भत्काएनन् तर उनी आफ्नो जीवनभरी परमप्रभु प्रति सम्पूर्ण हृदयले विश्वासी रहे। 15 आसा र उनका पिताले परमेश्वरलाई केही चीजहरू दिए। तिनीहरूले सुन, चाँदी र अरू चीजहरूको उपहार दिए। आसाले ती सबै चीजहरू मन्दिरमा राखे। 16 राजा आसा यहूदाका राजा भएको समयमा उनी सधैँ इस्राएलका राजा बाशाको विरोधमा लडिरहेको हुन्थे। 17 इस्राएलका राजा बाशा यहूदाको विरूद्धमा लडे। बाशाले उसका मानिसहरूलाई आसाको देश यहूदा जाने देखि रोक्न चाहन्थे। यसकारण उनले रामा शहरलाई साह्रै सुदृढ बनाए। 18 यसकारण आसाले परमप्रभुको मन्दिर अनि राजाको महलबाट सबै चाँदी र सुन निकाले। उनले सुन-चाँदी आफ्ना सेवकहरूलाई दिए अनि तिनीहरूलाई अरामका राजा बेनहदद कहाँपठाए। बेनहदद तब्रिमोनका छोरा थिए। तब्रिमोन हेज्योनका छोरा थिए। दमिशक बेनहददको राजधानी शहर थियो। 19 आसाले यो संदेश पठाए, “मेरा पिता र तिम्रा पिता माझ शान्ति सम्झौता भएको थियो। अहिले म तिमीसित शान्ति सम्झौता गर्न चाहन्छु। म तिम्रो लागि सुन-चाँदीको उपहार पठाइरहेको छु। इस्राएलका राजा बाशासित कृपया शान्ति सम्झौता भंग गर्नुहोस् जसले गर्दा ऊ मेरो देशबाट बाहिर जानेछ अनि हामीलाई अलग छोड्नेछ।” 20 राजा बेनहददले राजा आसासँग सम्झौता गरे। तिनले उसको सेनापतिहरू अनि सेनाहरू इस्राएली शहरहरू इयोन, दान, आबेल-बेतमाका, गलील पोखरीको वरिपरिका शहर अनि नप्तालीका इलाकामा लड्न पठाए। 21 बाशाले यी आक्रामणको बारेमा सुने। यसकारण उनले रामालाई सुदृढ बनाउन छोडिदिए। उनले त्यो शहर त्याग गरे अनि तिर्सातिर फर्किए। 22 तब राजा आसाले यहूदाका जम्मै मानिसहरूलाई आदेश दिए। कसैलाई पनि माफी भएन। तिनीहरू रामा गए अनि सबै ढुङ्गा र काठहरू बोके जसद्वारा बाशा त्यो शहरलाई सुदृढ बनाउँदै थिए। तिनीहरूले ती सामानहरू बिन्यामीनको भूमिमा गेबा अनि मिस्पा पुर्याए। तब राजा आसाले ती दुइ शहरहरूलाई अझै दरिलो बनाए। 23 राजा आसाले गरेका त्यो प्रत्येक कुरा उसको सैनिक शक्तिको विषयमा अनि उसले स्थापित गरेका त्यो शहरहरू यहूदाका राजाहरूको इतिहासको पुस्तकमा लेखिएको छ। जब आसा बूढा भए, उनी कुँजा भएका थियो। 24 तिनी मरे अनि उनलाई उनका पुर्खा दाऊदको शहरमा गाडियो। तब आसाका छोरा यहोशापात उनीपछि नयाँ राजा भए। इस्राएलका राजा नादाब 25 आसाको शासनकालको दोस्रो बर्षमा यारोबामका छोरा नादाब इस्राएलका राजा भए। नादाबले इस्राएलमा दुइ बर्ष शासन गरे। 26 नादाबले परमप्रभुले जे नराम्रो सम्झे त्यही गरे। उनले पापका कामहरू त्यसरी गरे जसरी उनका पिता यारोबामले गरेका थिए। यारोबामले पनि इस्राएल मानिसहरूलाई पाप गर्न लगाए। 27 बाशा अहियाहका छोरा थिए। तिनीहरू इस्साकार कुस समूहका थिए। बाशाले राजा नादाबलाई मार्ने योजना बनाए। नादाबको शासनकालमा सम्पूर्ण इस्राएल गिब्बतोन शहर को विरूद्ध लडिरहेको थियो। यो एउटा पलिश्तीहरूको शहर थियो। त्यस ठाउँमा बाशाले नादाबलाई मारे। 28 आसा यहूदाका राजा भएको समय तेस्रो बर्षमा यो घटना भयो। अनि आशा इस्राएलका अर्का राजा भए। इस्राएलका राजा बाशा 29 बाशा जब नयाँ राजा भए, उनले यारोबामको परिवारको प्रत्येक सदस्यलाई मारे। बाशाले यारोबामको परिवारको कसैलाई पनि जिउँदो छोडेनन्। परमप्रभुले जसरी हुनुपर्छ भन्नुभएको थियो यो घट्ना त्यसरी नै भयो। परमप्रभुले शीलोबाट आफ्नो सेवक अहियाह मार्फत भन्नुभएको थियो। 30 यस्तो भयो किन यारोबामले धेरै पापका कामहरू गरेका थिए। अनि यारोबामले इस्राएलका मानिसहरूलाई धेरै पाप गर्न लगाए। यारोबामले परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्वरलाई रीस उठाए। 31 अरू कार्यहरू जे जति नादाबले गरे इस्राएलका राजाहरूको इतिहासको पुस्तकमा लेखिएको छ। 32 बाशाले इस्राएलमा शासन गरेको समयमा उनी यहूदाका राजा आसाको विरोधमा युद्ध गरिरहेकाथिए। 33 आसाले यहूदामा शासन गरेको तेस्रो बर्षमा अहियाहका छोरा बाशा इस्राएलका राजा भए। बाशाले तिर्सामा 24 बर्ष शासन गरे। 34 तर बाशाले त्यही सब कामहरू गरे जसलाई परमप्रभुले भूल कामहरू थिए भनि भनेको थियो। उनले पनि ती पापहरू गरे जो यारोबामले गरेको थियो। यारोबामले पनि इस्राएलीहरूलाई पाप गर्न लगाए।
