< Matthew 24 >
1 And Jesus departed from the temple and went away. And his disciples approached him, so as to show him the buildings of the temple.
अनन्तरं यीशु र्यदा मन्दिराद् बहि र्गच्छति, तदानीं शिष्यास्तं मन्दिरनिर्म्माणं दर्शयितुमागताः।
2 But he said to them in response: “Do you see all these things? Amen I say to you, there shall not remain here stone upon stone, which is not torn down.”
ततो यीशुस्तानुवाच, यूयं किमेतानि न पश्यथ? युष्मानहं सत्यं वदामि, एतन्निचयनस्य पाषाणैकमप्यन्यपाषाणेापरि न स्थास्यति सर्व्वाणि भूमिसात् कारिष्यन्ते।
3 Then, when he was seated at the Mount of Olives, the disciples drew near to him privately, saying: “Tell us, when will these things be? And what will be the sign of your advent and of the consummation of the age?” (aiōn )
अनन्तरं तस्मिन् जैतुनपर्व्वतोपरि समुपविष्टे शिष्यास्तस्य समीपमागत्य गुप्तं पप्रच्छुः, एता घटनाः कदा भविष्यन्ति? भवत आगमनस्य युगान्तस्य च किं लक्ष्म? तदस्मान् वदतु। (aiōn )
4 And answering, Jesus said to them: “Pay attention, lest someone lead you astray.
तदानीं यीशुस्तानवोचत्, अवधद्व्वं, कोपि युष्मान् न भ्रमयेत्।
5 For many will come in my name saying, ‘I am the Christ.’ And they will lead many astray.
बहवो मम नाम गृह्लन्त आगमिष्यन्ति, ख्रीष्टोऽहमेवेति वाचं वदन्तो बहून् भ्रमयिष्यन्ति।
6 For you will hear of battles and rumors of battles. Take care not to be disturbed. For these things must be, but the end is not so soon.
यूयञ्च संग्रामस्य रणस्य चाडम्बरं श्रोष्यथ, अवधद्व्वं तेन चञ्चला मा भवत, एतान्यवश्यं घटिष्यन्ते, किन्तु तदा युगान्तो नहि।
7 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be pestilences, and famines, and earthquakes in places.
अपरं देशस्य विपक्षो देशो राज्यस्य विपक्षो राज्यं भविष्यति, स्थाने स्थाने च दुर्भिक्षं महामारी भूकम्पश्च भविष्यन्ति,
8 But all these things are just the beginning of the sorrows.
एतानि दुःखोपक्रमाः।
9 Then they will hand you over to tribulation, and they will kill you. And you will be hated by all nations for the sake of my name.
तदानीं लोका दुःखं भोजयितुं युष्मान् परकरेषु समर्पयिष्यन्ति हनिष्यन्ति च, तथा मम नामकारणाद् यूयं सर्व्वदेशीयमनुजानां समीपे घृणार्हा भविष्यथ।
10 And then many will be led into sin, and will betray one another, and will have hatred for one another.
बहुषु विघ्नं प्राप्तवत्सु परस्परम् ऋृतीयां कृतवत्सु च एकोऽपरं परकरेषु समर्पयिष्यति।
11 And many false prophets will arise, and they will lead many astray.
तथा बहवो मृषाभविष्यद्वादिन उपस्थाय बहून् भ्रमयिष्यन्ति।
12 And because iniquity has abounded, the charity of many will grow cold.
दुष्कर्म्मणां बाहुल्याञ्च बहूनां प्रेम शीतलं भविष्यति।
13 But whoever will have persevered until the end, the same shall be saved.
किन्तु यः कश्चित् शेषं यावद् धैर्य्यमाश्रयते, सएव परित्रायिष्यते।
14 And this Gospel of the kingdom shall be preached throughout the entire world, as a testimony to all nations. And then the consummation will occur.
अपरं सर्व्वदेशीयलोकान् प्रतिमाक्षी भवितुं राजस्य शुभसमाचारः सर्व्वजगति प्रचारिष्यते, एतादृशि सति युगान्त उपस्थास्यति।
15 Therefore, when you will have seen the abomination of desolation, which was spoken of by the prophet Daniel, standing in the holy place, may he who reads understand,
अतो यत् सर्व्वनाशकृद्घृणार्हं वस्तु दानियेल्भविष्यद्वदिना प्रोक्तं तद् यदा पुण्यस्थाने स्थापितं द्रक्ष्यथ, (यः पठति, स बुध्यतां)
16 then those who are in Judea, let them flee to the mountains.
तदानीं ये यिहूदीयदेशे तिष्ठन्ति, ते पर्व्वतेषु पलायन्तां।
17 And whoever is on the roof, let him not descend to take anything from his house.
यः कश्चिद् गृहपृष्ठे तिष्ठति, स गृहात् किमपि वस्त्वानेतुम् अधेा नावरोहेत्।
18 And whoever is in the field, let him not turn back to take his tunic.
यश्च क्षेत्रे तिष्ठति, सोपि वस्त्रमानेतुं परावृत्य न यायात्।
19 So then, woe to those who are pregnant or nursing in those days.
तदानीं गर्भिणीस्तन्यपाययित्रीणां दुर्गति र्भविष्यति।
20 But pray that your flight may not be in winter, or on the Sabbath.
अतो यष्माकं पलायनं शीतकाले विश्रामवारे वा यन्न भवेत्, तदर्थं प्रार्थयध्वम्।
21 For then there will be a great tribulation, such as has not been from the beginning of the world until the present, and such as will not be.
आ जगदारम्भाद् एतत्कालपर्य्यनन्तं यादृशः कदापि नाभवत् न च भविष्यति तादृशो महाक्लेशस्तदानीम् उपस्थास्यति।
22 And unless those days had been shortened, no flesh would be saved. But for the sake of the elect, those days shall be shortened.
तस्य क्लेशस्य समयो यदि ह्स्वो न क्रियेत, तर्हि कस्यापि प्राणिनो रक्षणं भवितुं न शक्नुयात्, किन्तु मनोनीतमनुजानां कृते स कालो ह्स्वीकरिष्यते।
23 Then if anyone will have said to you, ‘Behold, here is the Christ,’ or ‘he is there,’ do not be willing to believe it.
अपरञ्च पश्यत, ख्रीष्टोऽत्र विद्यते, वा तत्र विद्यते, तदानीं यदी कश्चिद् युष्मान इति वाक्यं वदति, तथापि तत् न प्रतीत्।
24 For there will arise false Christs and false prophets. And they will produce great signs and wonders, so much so as to lead into error even the elect (if this could be).
यतो भाक्तख्रीष्टा भाक्तभविष्यद्वादिनश्च उपस्थाय यानि महन्ति लक्ष्माणि चित्रकर्म्माणि च प्रकाशयिष्यन्ति, तै र्यदि सम्भवेत् तर्हि मनोनीतमानवा अपि भ्रामिष्यन्ते।
25 Behold, I have warned you beforehand.
पश्यत, घटनातः पूर्व्वं युष्मान् वार्त्ताम् अवादिषम्।
26 Therefore, if they will have said to you, ‘Behold, he is in the desert,’ do not choose to go out, or, ‘Behold, he is in the inner rooms,’ do not be willing to believe it.
अतः पश्यत, स प्रान्तरे विद्यत इति वाक्ये केनचित् कथितेपि बहि र्मा गच्छत, वा पश्यत, सोन्तःपुरे विद्यते, एतद्वाक्य उक्तेपि मा प्रतीत।
27 For just as lightning goes out from the east, and appears even in the west, so shall it be also at the advent of the Son of man.
यतो यथा विद्युत् पूर्व्वदिशो निर्गत्य पश्चिमदिशं यावत् प्रकाशते, तथा मानुषपुत्रस्याप्यागमनं भविष्यति।
28 Wherever the body shall be, there also will the eagles be gathered together.
यत्र शवस्तिष्ठति, तत्रेव गृध्रा मिलन्ति।
29 And immediately after the tribulation of those days, the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light, and the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken.
अपरं तस्य क्लेशसमयस्याव्यवहितपरत्र सूर्य्यस्य तेजो लोप्स्यते, चन्द्रमा ज्योस्नां न करिष्यति, नभसो नक्षत्राणि पतिष्यन्ति, गगणीया ग्रहाश्च विचलिष्यन्ति।
30 And then the sign of the Son of man shall appear in heaven. And then all tribes of the earth shall mourn. And they shall see the Son of man coming on the clouds of heaven, with great power and majesty.
तदानीम् आकाशमध्ये मनुजसुतस्य लक्ष्म दर्शिष्यते, ततो निजपराक्रमेण महातेजसा च मेघारूढं मनुजसुतं नभसागच्छन्तं विलोक्य पृथिव्याः सर्व्ववंशीया विलपिष्यन्ति।
31 And he shall send out his Angels with a trumpet and a great voice. And they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from the heights of the heavens, even to their furthest limits.
तदानीं स महाशब्दायमानतूर्य्या वादकान् निजदूतान् प्रहेष्यति, ते व्योम्न एकसीमातोऽपरसीमां यावत् चतुर्दिशस्तस्य मनोनीतजनान् आनीय मेलयिष्यन्ति।
32 So, from the fig tree learn a parable. When its branch has now become tender and the leaves have sprung forth, you know that summer is near.
उडुम्बरपादपस्य दृष्टान्तं शिक्षध्वं; यदा तस्य नवीनाः शाखा जायन्ते, पल्लवादिश्च निर्गच्छति, तदा निदाघकालः सविधो भवतीति यूयं जानीथ;
33 So also, when you will have seen all these things, know that it is near, even at the threshold.
तद्वद् एता घटना दृष्ट्वा स समयो द्वार उपास्थाद् इति जानीत।
34 Amen I say to you, that this lineage shall not pass away, until all these things have been done.
युष्मानहं तथ्यं वदामि, इदानीन्तनजनानां गमनात् पूर्व्वमेव तानि सर्व्वाणि घटिष्यन्ते।
35 Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.
नभोमेदिन्यो र्लुप्तयोरपि मम वाक् कदापि न लोप्स्यते।
36 But concerning that day and hour, no one knows, not even the Angels of the heavens, but only the Father.
अपरं मम तातं विना मानुषः स्वर्गस्थो दूतो वा कोपि तद्दिनं तद्दण्डञ्च न ज्ञापयति।
37 And just as in the days of Noah, so also will be the advent of the Son of man.
अपरं नोहे विद्यमाने यादृशमभवत् तादृशं मनुजसुतस्यागमनकालेपि भविष्यति।
38 For it will be just as it was in the days before the flood: eating and drinking, marrying and being given in marriage, even until that day when Noah entered into the ark.
फलतो जलाप्लावनात् पूर्व्वं यद्दिनं यावत् नोहः पोतं नारोहत्, तावत्कालं यथा मनुष्या भोजने पाने विवहने विवाहने च प्रवृत्ता आसन्;
39 And they did not realize it, until the flood came and took them all away. So also will the advent of the Son of man be.
अपरम् आप्लावितोयमागत्य यावत् सकलमनुजान् प्लावयित्वा नानयत्, तावत् ते यथा न विदामासुः, तथा मनुजसुतागमनेपि भविष्यति।
40 Then two men will be in a field: one will be taken up, and one will be left behind.
तदा क्षेत्रस्थितयोर्द्वयोरेको धारिष्यते, अपरस्त्याजिष्यते।
41 Two women will be grinding at a millstone: one will be taken up, and one will be left behind.
तथा पेषण्या पिंषत्योरुभयो र्योषितोरेका धारिष्यतेऽपरा त्याजिष्यते।
42 Therefore, be vigilant. For you do not know at what hour your Lord will return.
युष्माकं प्रभुः कस्मिन् दण्ड आगमिष्यति, तद् युष्माभि र्नावगम्यते, तस्मात् जाग्रतः सन्तस्तिष्ठत।
43 But know this: if only the father of the family knew at what hour the thief would arrive, he would certainly keep vigil and not permit his house to be broken into.
कुत्र यामे स्तेन आगमिष्यतीति चेद् गृहस्थो ज्ञातुम् अशक्ष्यत्, तर्हि जागरित्वा तं सन्धिं कर्त्तितुम् अवारयिष्यत् तद् जानीत।
44 For this reason, you also must be prepared, for you do not know at what hour the Son of man will return.
युष्माभिरवधीयतां, यतो युष्माभि र्यत्र न बुध्यते, तत्रैव दण्डे मनुजसुत आयास्यति।
45 Consider this: who is a faithful and prudent servant, who has been appointed by his lord over his family, to give them their portion in due time?
प्रभु र्निजपरिवारान् यथाकालं भोजयितुं यं दासम् अध्यक्षीकृत्य स्थापयति, तादृशो विश्वास्यो धीमान् दासः कः?
46 Blessed is that servant, if, when his lord has arrived, he shall find him doing so.
प्रभुरागत्य यं दासं तथाचरन्तं वीक्षते, सएव धन्यः।
47 Amen I say to you, he shall appoint him over all of his goods.
युष्मानहं सत्यं वदामि, स तं निजसर्व्वस्वस्याधिपं करिष्यति।
48 But if that evil servant has said in his heart, ‘My lord has been delayed in returning,’
किन्तु प्रभुरागन्तुं विलम्बत इति मनसि चिन्तयित्वा यो दुष्टो दासो
49 and so, he begins to strike his fellow servants, and he eats and drinks with the inebriated:
ऽपरदासान् प्रहर्त्तुं मत्तानां सङ्गे भोक्तुं पातुञ्च प्रवर्त्तते,
50 then the lord of that servant will arrive on a day that he does not expect, and at an hour that he does not know.
स दासो यदा नापेक्षते, यञ्च दण्डं न जानाति, तत्कालएव तत्प्रभुरुपस्थास्यति।
51 And he shall separate him, and he shall place his portion with the hypocrites, where there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.”
तदा तं दण्डयित्वा यत्र स्थाने रोदनं दन्तघर्षणञ्चासाते, तत्र कपटिभिः साकं तद्दशां निरूपयिष्यति।
