< Matthew 4 >

1 Then Jesus was led by the Spirit into the desert, in order to be tempted by the devil.
त्यसपछि दुष्‍टबाट परीक्षित हुनलाई पवित्र आत्माद्वारा येशू उजाड-स्थानमा डोर्‍याइनुभयो ।
2 And when he had fasted for forty days and forty nights, afterwards he was hungry.
चालिस दिन र चालिस रात उहाँ उपवासमा रहनुभएपछि उहाँ भोकाउनुभयो ।
3 And approaching, the tempter said to him, “If you are the Son of God, tell these stones to become bread.”
परीक्षा गर्ने आएर उहाँलाई भन्यो, “यदि तपाईं परमेश्‍वरका पुत्र हुनुहुन्छ भने, यी ढुङ्गाहरूलाई रोटी हुने आज्ञा गर्नुहोस् ।”
4 And in response he said, “It has been written: ‘Not by bread alone shall man live, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.’”
तर येशूले उत्तर दिनुभयो र त्यसलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “यसो लेखिएको छ, ‘मानिस केवल रोटीले मात्र बाँच्दैन, तर परमेश्‍वरको मुखबाट निस्कने हरेक वचनद्वारा बाँच्छ’ ।”
5 Then the devil took him up, into the holy city, and set him on the pinnacle of the temple,
त्यसपछि दुष्‍टले उहाँलाई पवित्र सहरमा लग्यो अनि उहाँलाई मन्दिरको सबैभन्दा अग्लो ठाउँमा राख्यो,
6 and said to him: “If you are the Son of God, cast yourself down. For it has been written: ‘For he has given charge of you to his angels, and they shall take you into their hands, lest perhaps you may hurt your foot against a stone.’”
अनि उहाँलाई भन्यो, “यदि तपाईं परमेश्‍वरका पुत्र हुनुहुन्छ भने, तल हाम फाल्नुहोस्, किनकि यसो लेखिएको छ, ‘तपाईंको हेरचाह गर्न उहाँले आफ्ना स्वर्गदूतहरूलाई आज्ञा गर्नुहुनेछ,’ अनि, ‘तपाईंका खुट्टा ढुङ्गामा नबजारिऊन् भनेर तिनीहरूले तपाईंलाई आफ्ना हातले माथि उठाउनेछन्’ ।”
7 Jesus said to him, “Again, it has been written: ‘You shall not tempt the Lord your God.’”
येशूले त्यसलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “फेरि यस्तो लेखिएको छ, ‘तैँले परमप्रभु आफ्ना परमेश्‍वरको परीक्षा नगर्’ ।”
8 Again, the devil took him up, onto a very high mountain, and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory,
फेरि, त्यो दुष्‍टले उहाँलाई एउटा अग्लो स्थानमा लग्यो र संसारका सबै वैभवसहित त्यहाँका राज्यहरू देखायो ।
9 and said to him, “All these things I will give to you, if you will fall down and adore me.”
त्यसले उहाँलाई भन्यो, “यदि तपाईंले घोप्‍टो परेर मलाई दण्डवत् गर्नुभयो भने, यी सबै थोक म तपाईंलाई दिनेछु ।”
10 Then Jesus said to him: “Go away, Satan. For it has been written: ‘You shall adore the Lord your God, and him only shall you serve.’”
त्यसपछि येशूले त्यसलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “शैतान, यहाँबाट गइहाल्! किनकि यसो लेखिएको छ, ‘तैँले परमप्रभु आफ्ना परमेश्‍वरको मात्र आराधना गर्नेछस्, र तैँले उहाँको मात्र सेवा गर्नेछस्’ ।”
11 Then the devil left him. And behold, Angels approached and ministered to him.
अनि त्यो दुष्‍ट उहाँको सामुबाट गयो, र हेर, स्वर्गदूतहरू आएर उहाँको सेवा गरे ।
12 And when Jesus had heard that John had been handed over, he withdrew into Galilee.
अनि जब यूहन्‍ना पक्राउमा परेको येशूले सुन्‍नुभयो, उहाँ गालीलमा फर्कनुभयो ।
13 And leaving behind the city of Nazareth, he went and lived in Capernaum, near the sea, at the borders of Zebulun and of Naphtali,
उहाँले नासरत छोड्नुभयो र उहाँ कफर्नहुममा जानुभयो र त्यहाँ बस्‍नुभयो, जुन जबूलून र नप्‍तालीका क्षेत्रहरूमा, गालील समुद्रको छेवैमा थियो ।
14 in order to fulfill what was said through the prophet Isaiah:
यशैया अगमवक्‍ताद्वारा भनिएका कुराहरू पुरा हुनको निम्ति यस्तो भयो,
15 “Land of Zebulun and land of Naphtali, the way of the sea across the Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles:
“गैरयहूदीहरूको गालील, यर्दनपारि, समुद्रतर्फ, जबूलूनको भूमि र नप्‍तालीको भूमि!
16 A people who were sitting in darkness have seen a great light. And unto those sitting in the region of the shadow of death, a light has risen.”
अन्धकारमा बसेका मानिसहरूले महान् ज्योति देखेका छन्, र त्यस क्षेत्रमा र मृत्युको छायामा बसेकाहरूमाथि एउटा ज्योति उदाएको छ ।”
17 From that time, Jesus began to preach, and to say: “Repent. For the kingdom of heaven has drawn near.”
त्यस समयदेखि येशूले प्रचार गर्न थाल्नुभयो अनि भन्‍नुभयो, “पश्‍चात्ताप गर, किनभने स्वर्गको राज्य नजिक आएको छ ।”
18 And Jesus, walking near the Sea of Galilee, saw two brothers, Simon who is called Peter, and his brother Andrew, casting a net into the sea (for they were fishermen).
जब उहाँ गालीलको समुद्र छेउमा हिँड्दै हुनुहुन्थ्यो, उहाँले दुई दाजुभाइ पत्रुस भनिने सिमोन र उनका भाइ अन्द्रियासलाई जाल हानिरहेका देख्‍नुभयो, किनकि उनीहरू मछुवाहरू थिए ।
19 And he said to them: “Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.”
येशूले तिनीहरूलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “आओ, मेरो पछि लाग, र म तिमीहरूलाई मानिसहरूका मछुवाहरू बनाउनेछु ।”
20 And at once, leaving behind their nets, they followed him.
तुरुन्तै उनीहरूले जाल छाडे र उहाँको पछि लागे ।
21 And continuing on from there, he saw another two brothers, James of Zebedee, and his brother John, in a ship with their father Zebedee, repairing their nets. And he called them.
जब येशू त्यहाँबाट जाँदै हुनुहुन्थ्यो उहाँले अर्का दुई दाजुभाइलाई देख्‍नुभयो । उनीहरू जब्दियाका छोरा याकूब र उनका भाइ यूहन्‍ना थिए । उनीहरू आफ्ना पिता जब्दियासँग डुङ्गामा जालहरूको मर्मत गर्दै थिए । उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई बोलाउनुभयो,
22 And immediately, leaving their nets and their father behind, they followed him.
र उनीहरूले तुरुन्तै उनीहरूका डुङ्गा र बुबालाई छोडी उहाँको पछि लागे ।
23 And Jesus traveled throughout all of Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the Gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every infirmity among the people.
येशूले गालीलका सभाघरहरूमा सिकाउँदै, परमेश्‍वरको राज्यको सुसमाचार प्रचार गर्दै र मानिसहरूका बिचमा हर प्रकारका रोग र बिमारीहरूलाई निको पार्दै गालीलका सबै ठाउँमा जानुभयो ।
24 And reports of him went out to all of Syria, and they brought to him all those who had maladies, those who were in the grasp of various sicknesses and torments, and those who were in the hold of demons, and the mentally ill, and paralytics. And he cured them.
उहाँको बारेमा भएको समाचार सिरियाभरि फैलियो, र उहाँको अगि मानिसहरूले तिनीहरू सबैलाई ल्याए जो बिरामी थिए, विभिन्‍न रोगहरू र दुःखाइले ग्रस्त थिए, र जो भूतहरूद्वारा वशमा पारिएका थिए र तिनीहरू जो छारे रोग लागेका थिए र पक्षाघातीहरू थिए ।
25 And a great crowd followed him from Galilee, and from the Ten Cities, and from Jerusalem, and from Judea, and from across the Jordan.
गालील, डेकापोलिस, यरूशलेम, यहूदिया र यर्दन पारिबाट आएको ठुलो भिड उहाँको पछि लाग्यो ।
