John 7
1 Then, after these things, Jesus was walking in Galilee. For he was not willing to walk in Judea, because the Jews were seeking to kill him.
tataḥ paraṁ yihūdīyalokāstaṁ hantuṁ samaihanta tasmād yīśu ryihūdāpradeśe paryyaṭituṁ necchan gālīl pradeśe paryyaṭituṁ prārabhata|
2 Now the feast day of the Jews, the Feast of Tabernacles, was near.
kintu tasmin samaye yihūdīyānāṁ dūṣyavāsanāmotsava upasthite
3 And his brothers said to him: “Move away from here and go into Judea, so that your disciples there may also see your works that you do.
tasya bhrātarastam avadan yāni karmmāṇi tvayā kriyante tāni yathā tava śiṣyāḥ paśyanti tadarthaṁ tvamitaḥ sthānād yihūdīyadeśaṁ vraja|
4 Of course, no one does anything in secret, but he himself seeks to be in the public view. Since you do these things, manifest yourself to the world.”
yaḥ kaścit svayaṁ pracikāśiṣati sa kadāpi guptaṁ karmma na karoti yadīdṛśaṁ karmma karoṣi tarhi jagati nijaṁ paricāyaya|
5 For neither did his brothers believe in him.
yatastasya bhrātaropi taṁ na viśvasanti|
6 Therefore, Jesus said to them: “My time has not yet come; but your time is always at hand.
tadā yīśustān avocat mama samaya idānīṁ nopatiṣṭhati kintu yuṣmākaṁ samayaḥ satatam upatiṣṭhati|
7 The world cannot hate you. But it hates me, because I offer testimony about it, that its works are evil.
jagato lokā yuṣmān ṛtīyituṁ na śakruvanti kintu māmeva ṛtīyante yatasteṣāṁ karmāṇi duṣṭāni tatra sākṣyamidam ahaṁ dadāmi|
8 You may go up to this feast day. But I am not going up to this feast day, because my time has not yet been fulfilled.”
ataeva yūyam utsave'smin yāta nāham idānīm asminnutsave yāmi yato mama samaya idānīṁ na sampūrṇaḥ|
9 When he had said these things, he himself remained in Galilee.
iti vākyam ukttvā sa gālīli sthitavān
10 But after his brothers went up, then he also went up to the feast day, not openly, but as if in secret.
kintu tasya bhrātṛṣu tatra prasthiteṣu satsu so'prakaṭa utsavam agacchat|
11 Therefore, the Jews were seeking him on the feast day, and they were saying, “Where is he?”
anantaram utsavam upasthitā yihūdīyāstaṁ mṛgayitvāpṛcchan sa kutra?
12 And there was much murmuring in the crowd concerning him. For certain ones were saying, “He is good.” But others were saying, “No, for he seduces the crowds.”
tato lokānāṁ madhye tasmin nānāvidhā vivādā bhavitum ārabdhavantaḥ| kecid avocan sa uttamaḥ puruṣaḥ kecid avocan na tathā varaṁ lokānāṁ bhramaṁ janayati|
13 Yet no one was speaking openly about him, out of fear of the Jews.
kintu yihūdīyānāṁ bhayāt kopi tasya pakṣe spaṣṭaṁ nākathayat|
14 Then, about the middle of the feast, Jesus ascended into the temple, and he was teaching.
tataḥ param utsavasya madhyasamaye yīśu rmandiraṁ gatvā samupadiśati sma|
15 And the Jews wondered, saying: “How does this one know letters, though he has not been taught?”
tato yihūdīyā lokā āścaryyaṁ jñātvākathayan eṣā mānuṣo nādhītyā katham etādṛśo vidvānabhūt?
16 Jesus responded to them and said: “My doctrine is not of me, but of him who sent me.
tadā yīśuḥ pratyavocad upadeśoyaṁ na mama kintu yo māṁ preṣitavān tasya|
17 If anyone has chosen to do his will, then he will realize, about the doctrine, whether it is from God, or whether I am speaking from myself.
yo jano nideśaṁ tasya grahīṣyati mamopadeśo matto bhavati kim īśvarād bhavati sa ganastajjñātuṁ śakṣyati|
18 Whoever speaks from himself seeks his own glory. But whoever seeks the glory of him who sent him, this one is true, and injustice is not in him.
yo janaḥ svataḥ kathayati sa svīyaṁ gauravam īhate kintu yaḥ prerayitu rgauravam īhate sa satyavādī tasmin kopyadharmmo nāsti|
19 Did not Moses give you the law? And yet not one among you keeps the law!
mūsā yuṣmabhyaṁ vyavasthāgranthaṁ kiṁ nādadāt? kintu yuṣmākaṁ kopi tāṁ vyavasthāṁ na samācarati| māṁ hantuṁ kuto yatadhve?
20 Why are you seeking to kill me?” The crowd responded and said: “You must have a demon. Who is seeking to kill you?”
tadā lokā avadan tvaṁ bhūtagrastastvāṁ hantuṁ ko yatate?
21 Jesus responded and said to them: “One work have I done, and you all wonder.
tato yīśuravocad ekaṁ karmma mayākāri tasmād yūyaṁ sarvva mahāścaryyaṁ manyadhve|
22 For Moses gave you circumcision, (not that it is of Moses, but of the fathers) and on the Sabbath you circumcise a man.
mūsā yuṣmabhyaṁ tvakchedavidhiṁ pradadau sa mūsāto na jātaḥ kintu pitṛpuruṣebhyo jātaḥ tena viśrāmavāre'pi mānuṣāṇāṁ tvakchedaṁ kurutha|
23 If a man can receive circumcision on the Sabbath, so that the law of Moses may not be broken, why are you indignant toward me, because I have made a man whole on the Sabbath?
ataeva viśrāmavāre manuṣyāṇāṁ tvakchede kṛte yadi mūsāvyavasthāmaṅganaṁ na bhavati tarhi mayā viśrāmavāre mānuṣaḥ sampūrṇarūpeṇa svastho'kāri tatkāraṇād yūyaṁ kiṁ mahyaṁ kupyatha?
24 Do not judge according to appearances, but instead judge a just judgment.”
sapakṣapātaṁ vicāramakṛtvā nyāyyaṁ vicāraṁ kuruta|
25 Therefore, some of those from Jerusalem said: “Is he not the one whom they are seeking to kill?
tadā yirūśālam nivāsinaḥ katipayajanā akathayan ime yaṁ hantuṁ ceṣṭante sa evāyaṁ kiṁ na?
26 And behold, he is speaking openly, and they say nothing to him. Could the leaders have decided that it is true this one is the Christ?
kintu paśyata nirbhayaḥ san kathāṁ kathayati tathāpi kimapi a vadantyete ayamevābhiṣiktto bhavatīti niścitaṁ kimadhipatayo jānanti?
27 But we know him and where he is from. And when the Christ has arrived, no one will know where he is from.”
manujoyaṁ kasmādāgamad iti vayaṁ jānomaḥ kintvabhiṣiktta āgate sa kasmādāgatavān iti kopi jñātuṁ na śakṣyati|
28 Therefore, Jesus cried out in the temple, teaching and saying: “You know me, and you also know where I am from. And I have not arrived of myself, but he who sent me is true, and him you do not know.
tadā yīśu rmadhyemandiram upadiśan uccaiḥkāram ukttavān yūyaṁ kiṁ māṁ jānītha? kasmāccāgatosmi tadapi kiṁ jānītha? nāhaṁ svata āgatosmi kintu yaḥ satyavādī saeva māṁ preṣitavān yūyaṁ taṁ na jānītha|
29 I know him. For I am from him, and he has sent me.”
tamahaṁ jāne tenāhaṁ prerita agatosmi|
30 Therefore, they were seeking to apprehend him, and yet no one laid hands on him, because his hour had not yet come.
tasmād yihūdīyāstaṁ dharttum udyatāstathāpi kopi tasya gātre hastaṁ nārpayad yato hetostadā tasya samayo nopatiṣṭhati|
31 But many among the crowd believed in him, and they were saying, “When the Christ arrives, will he perform more signs than this man does?”
kintu bahavo lokāstasmin viśvasya kathitavānto'bhiṣikttapuruṣa āgatya mānuṣasyāsya kriyābhyaḥ kim adhikā āścaryyāḥ kriyāḥ kariṣyati?
32 The Pharisees heard the crowd murmuring these things about him. And the leaders and the Pharisees sent attendants to apprehend him.
tataḥ paraṁ lokāstasmin itthaṁ vivadante phirūśinaḥ pradhānayājakāñceti śrutavantastaṁ dhṛtvā netuṁ padātigaṇaṁ preṣayāmāsuḥ|
33 Therefore, Jesus said to them: “For a brief time, I am still with you, and then I am going to him who sent me.
tato yīśuravadad aham alpadināni yuṣmābhiḥ sārddhaṁ sthitvā matprerayituḥ samīpaṁ yāsyāmi|
34 You shall seek me, and you will not find me. And where I am, you are not able to go.”
māṁ mṛgayiṣyadhve kintūddeśaṁ na lapsyadhve ratra sthāsyāmi tatra yūyaṁ gantuṁ na śakṣyatha|
35 And so the Jews said among themselves: “Where is this place to which he will go, such that we will not find him? Will he go to those dispersed among the Gentiles and teach the Gentiles?
tadā yihūdīyāḥ parasparaṁ vakttumārebhire asyoddeśaṁ na prāpsyāma etādṛśaṁ kiṁ sthānaṁ yāsyati? bhinnadeśe vikīrṇānāṁ yihūdīyānāṁ sannidhim eṣa gatvā tān upadekṣyati kiṁ?
36 What is this word that he spoke, ‘You will seek me and you will not find me; and where I am, you are not able to go?’”
no cet māṁ gaveṣayiṣyatha kintūddeśaṁ na prāpsyatha eṣa kodṛśaṁ vākyamidaṁ vadati?
37 Then, on the last great day of the feast, Jesus was standing and crying out, saying: “If anyone thirsts, let him come to me and drink:
anantaram utsavasya carame'hani arthāt pradhānadine yīśuruttiṣṭhan uccaiḥkāram āhvayan uditavān yadi kaścit tṛṣārtto bhavati tarhi mamāntikam āgatya pivatu|
38 whoever believes in me, just as Scripture says, ‘From his chest shall flow rivers of living water.’”
yaḥ kaścinmayi viśvasiti dharmmagranthasya vacanānusāreṇa tasyābhyantarato'mṛtatoyasya srotāṁsi nirgamiṣyanti|
39 Now he said this about the Spirit, which those who believe in him would soon be receiving. For the Spirit had not yet been given, because Jesus had not yet been glorified.
ye tasmin viśvasanti ta ātmānaṁ prāpsyantītyarthe sa idaṁ vākyaṁ vyāhṛtavān etatkālaṁ yāvad yīśu rvibhavaṁ na prāptastasmāt pavitra ātmā nādīyata|
40 Therefore, some from that crowd, when they had heard these words of his, were saying, “This one truly is the Prophet.”
etāṁ vāṇīṁ śrutvā bahavo lokā avadan ayameva niścitaṁ sa bhaviṣyadvādī|
41 Others were saying, “He is the Christ.” Yet certain ones were saying: “Does the Christ come from Galilee?
kecid akathayan eṣaeva sobhiṣikttaḥ kintu kecid avadan sobhiṣikttaḥ kiṁ gālīl pradeśe janiṣyate?
42 Does Scripture not say that the Christ comes from the offspring of David and from Bethlehem, the town where David was?”
sobhiṣiktto dāyūdo vaṁśe dāyūdo janmasthāne baitlehami pattane janiṣyate dharmmagranthe kimitthaṁ likhitaṁ nāsti?
43 And so there arose a dissension among the multitude because of him.
itthaṁ tasmin lokānāṁ bhinnavākyatā jātā|
44 Now certain ones among them wanted to apprehend him, but no one laid hands upon him.
katipayalokāstaṁ dharttum aicchan tathāpi tadvapuṣi kopi hastaṁ nārpayat|
45 Therefore, the attendants went to the high priests and the Pharisees. And they said to them, “Why have you not brought him?”
anantaraṁ pādātigaṇe pradhānayājakānāṁ phirūśināñca samīpamāgatavati te tān apṛcchan kuto hetostaṁ nānayata?
46 The attendants responded, “Never has a man spoken like this man.”
tadā padātayaḥ pratyavadan sa mānava iva kopi kadāpi nopādiśat|
47 And so the Pharisees answered them: “Have you also been seduced?
tataḥ phirūśinaḥ prāvocan yūyamapi kimabhrāmiṣṭa?
48 Have any of the leaders believed in him, or any of the Pharisees?
adhipatīnāṁ phirūśināñca kopi kiṁ tasmin vyaśvasīt?
49 But this crowd, which does not know the law, they are accursed.”
ye śāstraṁ na jānanti ta ime'dhamalokāeva śāpagrastāḥ|
50 Nicodemus, the one who came to him by night and who was one of them, said to them,
tadā nikadīmanāmā teṣāmeko yaḥ kṣaṇadāyāṁ yīśoḥ sannidhim agāt sa ukttavān
51 “Does our law judge a man, unless it has first heard him and has known what he has done?”
tasya vākye na śrute karmmaṇi ca na vidite 'smākaṁ vyavasthā kiṁ kañcana manujaṁ doṣīkaroti?
52 They responded and said to him: “Are you also a Galilean? Study the Scriptures, and see that a prophet does not arise from Galilee.”
tataste vyāharan tvamapi kiṁ gālīlīyalokaḥ? vivicya paśya galīli kopi bhaviṣyadvādī notpadyate|
53 And each one returned to his own house.
tataḥ paraṁ sarvve svaṁ svaṁ gṛhaṁ gatāḥ kintu yīśu rjaitunanāmānaṁ śiloccayaṁ gatavān|
