< Luke 19 >
1 And he entered and passed through Jericho.
येशू यरीहोमा प्रवेश गरेर त्यहाँबाट जाँदै हुनुहुन्थ्यो ।
2 And behold, [there was] a man by name called Zacchaeus, and he was chief tax-gatherer, and he was rich.
हेर, त्यहाँ जखायस नाउँ गरेका एक जना मानिस थिए । उनी कर उठनेहरूका मुख्य र धनी मानिस थिए ।
3 And he sought to see Jesus who he was: and he could not for the crowd, because he was little in stature.
उनले येशू को हुनुहुन्छ भनी हेर्न कोसिस गरिरहेका थिए, तर भिडको कारणले गर्दा हेर्न सकेनन्, किनकि उनी होचा थिए ।
4 And running on before, he got up into a sycamore that he might see him, for he was going to pass that [way].
त्यसैले उनी भिडका मानिसहरूभन्दा अगाडि दौडे र उहाँलाई हेर्नको लागि नेभाराको रुखमा चढे, किनभने येशू त्यही बाटो भएर जाँदै हुनुहुन्थ्यो ।
5 And when he came up to the place, Jesus looked up and saw him, and said to him, Zacchaeus, make haste and come down, for to-day I must remain in thy house.
जब येशू उनी भएको ठाउँ नजिक आइपुग्नुभयो, उहाँले मास्तिर हेरेर भन्नुभयो, “जखायस छिटो ओर्ली आऊ, किनकि आज मलाई तिम्रो घरमा बस्नु छ ।”
6 And he made haste and came down, and received him with joy.
त्यसैले उनी हतार-हतार ओर्ली आए र उहाँलाई खुसीसाथ स्वागत गरे ।
7 And all murmured when they saw [it], saying, He has turned in to lodge with a sinful man.
जब तिनीहरू सबैले यो देखे, तब उनीहरूले यसो भन्दै गनगन गर्न थाले, “उहाँ पापी मानिसकहाँ बस्नको लागि जानुभयो ।”
8 But Zacchaeus stood and said to the Lord, Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor, and if I have taken anything from any man by false accusation, I return [him] fourfold.
जखायस खडा भएर भने, “हेर्नुहोस् प्रभु, मसँग भएका जे-जति छन् त्यसको आधा म गरिबहरूलाई दिनेछु र यदि मैले कसैलाई ठगेर कसैबाट केही कुरा लिएको छु भने त्यसको चार गुणा फिर्ता दिनेछु ।”
9 And Jesus said to him, To-day salvation is come to this house, inasmuch as he also is a son of Abraham;
येशूले तिनलाई भन्नुभयो, “आज यो घरमा मुक्ति आएको छ, किनकि यिनी पनि अब्राहामका पुत्र हुन् ।
10 for the Son of man has come to seek and to save that which is lost.
किनकि मानिसका पुत्र हराएकाहरूलाई खोज्न र बचाउनको लागि आएका हुन् ।”
11 But as they were listening to these things, he added and spake a parable, because he was near to Jerusalem and they thought that the kingdom of God was about to be immediately manifested.
तिनीहरूले यी कुरा सुन्दै गर्दा, उहाँले अर्को दृष्टान्त पनि भन्नुभयो, किनभने तिनीहरू यरूशलेमको नजिक थिए र तिनीहरूले परमेश्वरको राज्य तुरुन्तै देखा पर्न लागेको छ भन्ने सोचेका थिए ।
12 He said therefore, A certain high-born man went to a distant country to receive for himself a kingdom and return.
त्यसकारण, उहाँले भन्नुभयो, “एउटा भलादमी मानिस आफ्नो राज्य प्राप्त गर्नको निम्ति एउटा टाढा देशमा गएर फर्की आउनलाई गए ।
13 And having called his own ten bondmen, he gave to them ten minas, and said to them, Trade while I am coming.
उनले आफ्ना दस जना नोकरलाई बोलाए र तिनीहरूलाई दस सिक्का दिँदै भने, ‘म फर्की नआउँदासम्म यसलाई व्यापारमा लगाओ ।’
14 But his citizens hated him, and sent an embassy after him, saying, We will not that this [man] should reign over us.
तर उनका मानिसहरूले घृणा गर्दै यसो भन्ने सन्देश दिएर दूतहरू पठाए, ‘यो मानिसले हामीमाथि शासन गरेको हामी चाहँदैनौँ ।’
15 And it came to pass on his arrival back again, having received the kingdom, that he desired these bondmen to whom he gave the money to be called to him, in order that he might know what every one had gained by trading.
तब राज्य प्राप्त गरी फर्केर आएपछि उनले सिक्का पाएका नोकरहरूलाई बोलाए र तिनीहरूले व्यापारबाट कति आर्जन गरे भनेर जान्ने इच्छा गरे ।
16 And the first came up, saying, [My] Lord, thy mina has produced ten minas.
पहिलो नोकर उनको अगाडि आयो र भन्यो, ‘मालिक, मैले तपाईंको सिक्काबाट अरू दस सिक्का कमाएँ ।’
17 And he said to him, Well [done], thou good bondman; because thou hast been faithful in that which is least, be thou in authority over ten cities.
ती भलादमी मानिसले त्यसलाई भने, ‘स्याबास, असल नोकर । तिमी धेरै सानो कुरामा विश्वासयोग्य भयौ, त्यसकारण तिमीले दसवटा सहर अधिकार गर्नेछौ ।’
18 And the second came, saying, [My] Lord, thy mina has made five minas.
दोस्रो नोकर आयो र भन्यो, ‘मालिक, तपाईंको सिक्काबाट मैले पाँच सिक्का कमाएँ ।’
19 And he said also to this one, And thou, be over five cities.
ती भलादमी मानिसले त्यस नोकरलाई भने, ‘तिमीले पाँचवटा सहरमा राज्य गर्नेछौ ।’
20 And another came, saying, [My] Lord, lo, [there is] thy mina, which I have kept laid up in a towel.
अनि अर्को नोकर आयो र भन्यो, ‘मालिक, तपाईंको सिक्का यहाँ छ, जसलाई मैले कपडाभित्र सुरक्षितसाथ राखेको थिएँ ।
21 For I feared thee because thou art a harsh man: thou takest up what thou hast not laid down, and thou reapest what thou hast not sowed.
किनकि म डराएँ, किनभने तपाईं कठोर मानिस हुनुहुन्छ । तपाईंले जे राख्नुभएको छैन, त्यो कुरा लिनुहुन्छ र जे छर्नुभएको छैन, त्यही कटनी गर्नुहुन्छ ।’
22 He says to him, Out of thy mouth will I judge thee, wicked bondman: thou knewest that I am a harsh man, taking up what I have not laid down and reaping what I have not sowed.
ती भलादमी मानिसले त्यसलाई भने, ‘तँ दुष्ट नोकर, म तँलाई तेरो आफ्नै वचनले न्याय गर्नेछु । जहाँ राखेको छैन त्यहाँबाट लिन खोज्ने र जहाँ छरेको छैन त्यहाँबाट कटनी गर्न खोज्ने म कठोर मानिस हुँ भनी तँलाई थाहा थियो ।
23 And why didst thou not give my money to [the] bank; and I should have received it, at my coming, with interest?
त्यसो भए, तैँले मेरो सिक्का किन बैङ्कमा राखिनस्, ताकि फर्की आउँदा ब्याजसहित मैले यो रकम पाउने थिएँ?’
24 And he said to those that stood by, Take from him the mina and give [it] to him who has the ten minas.
ती भलादमी मानिसले त्यहाँ उभिएका मानिसहरूलाई भने, ‘योसँग भएको सिक्का खोसेर जससँग दस सिक्का छ, त्यसलाई देओ ।’
25 And they said to him, Lord, he has ten minas.
तिनीहरूले उसलाई भने, ‘मालिक उसँग त दस सिक्का छ ।’
26 For I say unto you, that to every one that has shall be given; but from him that has not, that even which he has shall be taken from him.
‘म तिमीलाई भन्दछु, जससँग छ त्यसलाई अझ धेरै दिइने छ, तर जोसँग छैन, त्यससँग भएको पनि खोसिनेछ ।
27 Moreover those mine enemies, who would not [have] me to reign over them, bring them here and slay [them] before me.
तर, मैले तिनीहरूमाथि शासन गरेको नचाहने मेरा यी शत्रुहरूलाई यहाँ ल्याओ र मेरो अगाडि मार’ ।”
28 And having said these things, he went on before, going up to Jerusalem.
यी कुराहरू भनिसक्नुभएपछि, उहाँ यरूशलेमतिर जानुभयो ।
29 And it came to pass as he drew near to Bethphage and Bethany at the mountain called [the mount] of Olives, he sent two of his disciples,
बेथफागे र बेथानियाबाट जैतून भनिने डाँडा नजिक पुग्नुभएपछि उहाँले आफना दुई जना चेलालाई यसो भनेर पठाउनुभयो,
30 saying, Go into the village over against [you], in which ye will find, on entering it, a colt tied up, on which no [child] of man ever sat at any time: loose it and lead it [here].
“नजिकैको गाउँमा जाओ । त्यहाँ पस्दै गर्दा, तिमीहरूले कोही पनि नचढेको एउटा बछेडो भेट्टाउनेछौ । त्यसलाई फुकाओ र मकहाँ ल्याओ ।
31 And if any one ask you, Why do ye loose [it]? thus shall ye say to him, Because the Lord has need of it.
यदि कसैले तिमीहरूलाई, ‘यसलाई किन फुकाउँदै छौ?’ भनेर सोध्यो भने यसो भन्नू, ‘प्रभुलाई यसको खाँचो छ’ ।”
32 And they that were sent, having gone their way, found as he had said to them.
पठाइएकाहरू गए र तिनीहरूले येशूले भन्नुभएजस्तै बछेडो पाए ।
33 And as they were loosing the colt, its masters said to them, Why loose ye the colt?
तिनीहरूले बछेडालाई फुकाल्दै गर्दा, त्यसका मालिकले तिनीहरूलाई भने, “तिमीहरूले यस बछेडालाई किन फुकाउँदै छौ?”
34 And they said, Because the Lord has need of it.
तिनीहरूले भने, “प्रभुलाई यसको खाँचो छ ।”
35 And they led it to Jesus; and having cast their own garments on the colt, they put Jesus on [it].
तिनीहरूले त्यसलाई येशूकहाँ ल्याए र तिनीहरूले त्यस बछेडामाथि आफ्ना कपडाहरू राखे र त्यसमाथि येशूलाई बसाले ।
36 And as he went, they strewed their clothes in the way.
उहाँ जाँदै गर्नुहुँदा, तिनीहरूले बाटोमा कपडा ओछ्याए ।
37 And as he drew near, already at the descent of the mount of Olives, all the multitude of the disciples began, rejoicing, to praise God with a loud voice for all the works of power which they had seen,
उहाँ जैतून डाँडाको ओरालोको नजिकै आइपुग्नुहुँदा, उहाँका चेलाहरूको ठुलो भिडले उहाँले गर्नुभएका शक्तिशाली कार्यहरू देखेको कारण आनन्दित हुँदै चर्को स्वरले परमेश्वरको प्रशंसा गर्न लागे ।
38 saying, Blessed the King that comes in the name of [the] Lord: peace in heaven, and glory in the highest.
तिनीहरूले यसो भन्न लागे, “परमप्रभुको नाउँमा आउने राजा धन्यका हुन्! स्वर्गमा शान्ति र सर्वोच्चमा महिमा!”
39 And some of the Pharisees from the crowd said to him, Teacher, rebuke thy disciples.
त्यो भिडमा भएका केही फरिसीहरूले उहाँलाई यसो भने, “गुरुज्यू, तपाईंका चेलाहरू चुप बसून् भनी हप्काउनुहोस् ।”
40 And he answering said to them, I say unto you, If these shall be silent, the stones will cry out.
येशूले जवाफ दिँदै भन्नुभयो, “म तिमीहरूलाई भन्दछु, तिनीहरू चुप लागे भने, यी ढुङ्गाहरू नै कराउनेछन् ।”
41 And as he drew near, seeing the city, he wept over it,
जब येशू सहरको नजिक पुग्नुभयो, उहाँ त्यसलाई देखेर यसो भन्दै रुनुभयो,
42 saying, If thou hadst known, even thou, even at least in this thy day, the things that are for thy peace: but now they are hid from thine eyes;
“यदि तैँले यो दिनको बारेमा थाहा पाएको भए, तँलाई शान्ति दिने कुरालाई जानेको भए! तर अहिले यी कुराहरू तेरो नजरबाट लुकाइएका छन् ।
43 for days shall come upon thee, that thine enemies shall make a palisaded mound about thee, and shall close thee around, and keep thee in on every side,
किनकि तेरो लागि यस्ता दिनहरू आउनेछन्, जब तेरा शत्रुहरूले तेरो विरुद्धमा वरिपरि पर्खाल निर्माण गर्नेछन् र तँलाई घेर्नेछन् र चारैतिरबाट आक्रमण गर्नेछन् ।
44 and shall lay thee even with the ground, and thy children in thee; and shall not leave in thee a stone upon a stone: because thou knewest not the season of thy visitation.
तिनीहरूले तँलाई र तेरा सन्तानलाई आक्रमण गरेर लडाउनेछन्; तिनीहरूले एउटा ढुङ्गामाथि अर्को ढुङ्गा छोड्नेछैनन्, किनभने परमेश्वरले तँलाई बचाउनका लागि गर्नुभएका प्रयत्नलाई तैँले बुझिनस् ।
45 And entering into the temple, he began to cast out those that sold and bought in it,
येशू मन्दिरभित्र छिर्नुभयो र त्यहाँ व्यापार गरिरहेका मानिसहरूलाई यसो भन्दै खेद्नुभयो,
46 saying to them, It is written, My house is a house of prayer, but ye have made it a den of robbers.
“यसो लेखिएको छ, ‘मेरो घर प्रार्थनाको घर हुनेछ,’ तर तिमीहरूले त यसलाई डाँकुहरूको अड्डा बनाएका छौ ।”
47 And he was teaching day by day in the temple: and the chief priests and the scribes and the chief of the people sought to destroy him,
येशूले मन्दिरमा दिनहुँ शिक्षा सिकाउनुहुन्थ्यो । मुख्य पुजारीहरू, शास्त्रीहरू र धार्मिक अगुवाहरूले उहाँलाई मार्न चाहन्थे ।
48 and did not find what they could do, for all the people hung on him to hear.
तर तिनीहरूले त्यसो गर्ने कुनै उपाय भेट्टाउन सकेनन्, किनभने मानिसहरूले उहाँको वचन ध्यानसित सुनिरहेका थिए ।
