Matthew 11
1 After Jesus had finished instructing His twelve disciples, He went on from there to teach and preach in their cities.
इत्थं यीशुः स्वद्वादशशिष्याणामाज्ञापनं समाप्य पुरे पुर उपदेष्टुं सुसंवादं प्रचारयितुं तत्स्थानात् प्रतस्थे।
2 Meanwhile John heard in prison about the works of Christ, and he sent his disciples
अनन्तरं योहन् कारायां तिष्ठन् ख्रिष्टस्य कर्म्मणां वार्त्तं प्राप्य यस्यागमनवार्त्तासीत् सएव किं त्वं? वा वयमन्यम् अपेक्षिष्यामहे?
3 to ask Him, “Are You the One who was to come, or should we look for someone else?”
एतत् प्रष्टुं निजौ द्वौ शिष्यौ प्राहिणोत्।
4 Jesus replied, “Go back and report to John what you hear and see:
यीशुः प्रत्यवोचत्, अन्धा नेत्राणि लभन्ते, खञ्चा गच्छन्ति, कुष्ठिनः स्वस्था भवन्ति, बधिराः शृण्वन्ति, मृता जीवन्त उत्तिष्ठन्ति, दरिद्राणां समीपे सुसंवादः प्रचार्य्यत,
5 The blind receive sight, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, and the good news is preached to the poor.
एतानि यद्यद् युवां शृणुथः पश्यथश्च गत्वा तद्वार्त्तां योहनं गदतं।
6 Blessed is the one who does not fall away on account of Me.”
यस्याहं न विघ्नीभवामि, सएव धन्यः।
7 As John’s disciples were leaving, Jesus began to speak to the crowds about John: “What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed swaying in the wind?
अनन्तरं तयोः प्रस्थितयो र्यीशु र्योहनम् उद्दिश्य जनान् जगाद, यूयं किं द्रष्टुं वहिर्मध्येप्रान्तरम् अगच्छत? किं वातेन कम्पितं नलं?
8 Otherwise, what did you go out to see? A man dressed in fine clothes? Look, those who wear fine clothing are found in kings’ palaces.
वा किं वीक्षितुं वहिर्गतवन्तः? किं परिहितसूक्ष्मवसनं मनुजमेकं? पश्यत, ये सूक्ष्मवसनानि परिदधति, ते राजधान्यां तिष्ठन्ति।
9 What then did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I tell you, and more than a prophet.
तर्हि यूयं किं द्रष्टुं बहिरगमत, किमेकं भविष्यद्वादिनं? तदेव सत्यं। युष्मानहं वदामि, स भविष्यद्वादिनोपि महान्;
10 This is the one about whom it is written: ‘Behold, I will send My messenger ahead of You, who will prepare Your way before You.’
यतः, पश्य स्वकीयदूतोयं त्वदग्रे प्रेष्यते मया। स गत्वा तव पन्थानं स्मयक् परिष्करिष्यति॥ एतद्वचनं यमधि लिखितमास्ते सोऽयं योहन्।
11 Truly I tell you, among those born of women there has risen no one greater than John the Baptist. Yet even the least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.
अपरं युष्मानहं तथ्यं ब्रवीमि, मज्जयितु र्योहनः श्रेष्ठः कोपि नारीतो नाजायत; तथापि स्वर्गराज्यमध्ये सर्व्वेभ्यो यः क्षुद्रः स योहनः श्रेष्ठः।
12 From the days of John the Baptist until now, the kingdom of heaven has been subject to violence, and the violent lay claim to it.
अपरञ्च आ योहनोऽद्य यावत् स्वर्गराज्यं बलादाक्रान्तं भवति आक्रमिनश्च जना बलेन तदधिकुर्व्वन्ति।
13 For all the Prophets and the Law prophesied until John.
यतो योहनं यावत् सर्व्वभविष्यद्वादिभि र्व्यवस्थया च उपदेशः प्राकाश्यत।
14 And if you are willing to accept it, he is the Elijah who was to come.
यदि यूयमिदं वाक्यं ग्रहीतुं शक्नुथ, तर्हि श्रेयः, यस्यागमनस्य वचनमास्ते सोऽयम् एलियः।
15 He who has ears, let him hear.
यस्य श्रोतुं कर्णौ स्तः स शृणोतु।
16 To what can I compare this generation? They are like children sitting in the marketplaces and calling out to others:
एते विद्यमानजनाः कै र्मयोपमीयन्ते? ये बालका हट्ट उपविश्य स्वं स्वं बन्धुमाहूय वदन्ति,
17 ‘We played the flute for you, and you did not dance; we sang a dirge, and you did not mourn.’
वयं युष्माकं समीपे वंशीरवादयाम, किन्तु यूयं नानृत्यत; युष्माकं समीपे च वयमरोदिम, किन्तु यूयं न व्यलपत, तादृशै र्बालकैस्त उपमायिष्यन्ते।
18 For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, ‘He has a demon!’
यतो योहन् आगत्य न भुक्तवान् न पीतवांश्च, तेन लोका वदन्ति, स भूतग्रस्त इति।
19 The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they say, ‘Look at this glutton and drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!’ But wisdom is vindicated by her actions.”
मनुजसुत आगत्य भुक्तवान् पीतवांश्च, तेन लोका वदन्ति, पश्यत एष भोक्ता मद्यपाता चण्डालपापिनां बन्धश्च, किन्तु ज्ञानिनो ज्ञानव्यवहारं निर्दोषं जानन्ति।
20 Then Jesus began to denounce the cities in which most of His miracles had been performed, because they did not repent.
स यत्र यत्र पुरे बह्वाश्चर्य्यं कर्म्म कृतवान्, तन्निवासिनां मनःपरावृत्त्यभावात् तानि नगराणि प्रति हन्तेत्युक्ता कथितवान्,
21 “Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the miracles that were performed in you had been performed in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes.
हा कोरासीन्, हा बैत्सैदे, युष्मन्मध्ये यद्यदाश्चर्य्यं कर्म्म कृतं यदि तत् सोरसीदोन्नगर अकारिष्यत, तर्हि पूर्व्वमेव तन्निवासिनः शाणवसने भस्मनि चोपविशन्तो मनांसि परावर्त्तिष्यन्त।
22 But I tell you, it will be more bearable for Tyre and Sidon on the day of judgment than for you.
तस्मादहं युष्मान् वदामि, विचारदिने युष्माकं दशातः सोरसीदोनो र्दशा सह्यतरा भविष्यति।
23 And you, Capernaum, will you be lifted up to heaven? No, you will be brought down to Hades! For if the miracles that were performed in you had been performed in Sodom, it would have remained to this day. (Hadēs g86)
अपरञ्च बत कफर्नाहूम्, त्वं स्वर्गं यावदुन्नतोसि, किन्तु नरके निक्षेप्स्यसे, यस्मात् त्वयि यान्याश्चर्य्याणि कर्म्मण्यकारिषत, यदि तानि सिदोम्नगर अकारिष्यन्त, तर्हि तदद्य यावदस्थास्यत्। (Hadēs g86)
24 But I tell you that it will be more bearable for Sodom on the day of judgment than for you.”
किन्त्वहं युष्मान् वदामि, विचारदिने तव दण्डतः सिदोमो दण्डो सह्यतरो भविष्यति।
25 At that time Jesus declared, “I praise You, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because You have hidden these things from the wise and learned, and revealed them to little children.
एतस्मिन्नेव समये यीशुः पुनरुवाच, हे स्वर्गपृथिव्योरेकाधिपते पितस्त्वं ज्ञानवतो विदुषश्च लोकान् प्रत्येतानि न प्रकाश्य बालकान् प्रति प्रकाशितवान्, इति हेतोस्त्वां धन्यं वदामि।
26 Yes, Father, for this was well-pleasing in Your sight.
हे पितः, इत्थं भवेत् यत इदं त्वदृष्टावुत्तमं।
27 All things have been entrusted to Me by My Father. No one knows the Son except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son and those to whom the Son chooses to reveal Him.
पित्रा मयि सर्व्वाणि समर्पितानि, पितरं विना कोपि पुत्रं न जानाति, यान् प्रति पुत्रेण पिता प्रकाश्यते तान् विना पुत्राद् अन्यः कोपि पितरं न जानाति।
28 Come to Me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.
हे परिश्रान्ता भाराक्रान्ताश्च लोका यूयं मत्सन्निधिम् आगच्छत, अहं युष्मान् विश्रमयिष्यामि।
29 Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me; for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.
अहं क्षमणशीलो नम्रमनाश्च, तस्मात् मम युगं स्वेषामुपरि धारयत मत्तः शिक्षध्वञ्च, तेन यूयं स्वे स्वे मनसि विश्रामं लप्स्यध्बे।
30 For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.”
यतो मम युगम् अनायासं मम भारश्च लघुः।
