< Luke 7 >

1 And when he had completed all his words in the hearing of the people, he entered into Capernaum.
tataḥ paraṁ sa lōkānāṁ karṇagōcarē tān sarvvān upadēśān samāpya yadā kapharnāhūmpuraṁ praviśati
2 And a certain centurion's bondman who was dear to him was ill and about to die;
tadā śatasēnāpatēḥ priyadāsa ēkō mr̥takalpaḥ pīḍita āsīt|
3 and having heard of Jesus, he sent to him elders of the Jews, begging him that he might come and save his bondman.
ataḥ sēnāpati ryīśō rvārttāṁ niśamya dāsasyārōgyakaraṇāya tasyāgamanārthaṁ vinayakaraṇāya yihūdīyān kiyataḥ prācaḥ prēṣayāmāsa|
4 But they, being come to Jesus, besought him diligently, saying, He is worthy to whom thou shouldest grant this,
tē yīśōrantikaṁ gatvā vinayātiśayaṁ vaktumārēbhirē, sa sēnāpati rbhavatōnugrahaṁ prāptum arhati|
5 for he loves our nation, and himself has built the synagogue for us.
yataḥ sōsmajjātīyēṣu lōkēṣu prīyatē tathāsmatkr̥tē bhajanagēhaṁ nirmmitavān|
6 And Jesus went with them. But already, when he was not far from the house, the centurion sent to him friends, saying to him, Lord, do not trouble thyself, for I am not worthy that thou shouldest enter under my roof.
tasmād yīśustaiḥ saha gatvā nivēśanasya samīpaṁ prāpa, tadā sa śatasēnāpati rvakṣyamāṇavākyaṁ taṁ vaktuṁ bandhūn prāhiṇōt| hē prabhō svayaṁ śramō na karttavyō yad bhavatā madgēhamadhyē pādārpaṇaṁ kriyēta tadapyahaṁ nārhāmi,
7 Wherefore neither did I count myself worthy to come to thee. But say by a word and my servant shall be healed.
kiñcāhaṁ bhavatsamīpaṁ yātumapi nātmānaṁ yōgyaṁ buddhavān, tatō bhavān vākyamātraṁ vadatu tēnaiva mama dāsaḥ svasthō bhaviṣyati|
8 For I also am a man placed under authority, having under myself soldiers, and I say to this [one], Go, and he goes; and to another, Come, and he comes; and to my bondman, Do this, and he does [it].
yasmād ahaṁ parādhīnōpi mamādhīnā yāḥ sēnāḥ santi tāsām ēkajanaṁ prati yāhīti mayā prōktē sa yāti; tadanyaṁ prati āyāhīti prōktē sa āyāti; tathā nijadāsaṁ prati ētat kurvviti prōktē sa tadēva karōti|
9 And Jesus hearing this wondered at him, and turning to the crowd following him said, I say to you, Not even in Israel have I found so great faith.
yīśuridaṁ vākyaṁ śrutvā vismayaṁ yayau, mukhaṁ parāvartya paścādvarttinō lōkān babhāṣē ca, yuṣmānahaṁ vadāmi isrāyēlō vaṁśamadhyēpi viśvāsamīdr̥śaṁ na prāpnavaṁ|
10 And they who had been sent returning to the house found the bondman, who was ill, in good health.
tatastē prēṣitā gr̥haṁ gatvā taṁ pīḍitaṁ dāsaṁ svasthaṁ dadr̥śuḥ|
11 And it came to pass afterwards he went into a city called Nain, and many of his disciples and a great crowd went with him.
parē'hani sa nāyīnākhyaṁ nagaraṁ jagāma tasyānēkē śiṣyā anyē ca lōkāstēna sārddhaṁ yayuḥ|
12 And as he drew near to the gate of the city, behold, a dead man was carried out, the only son of his mother, and she a widow, and a very considerable crowd of the city [was] with her.
tēṣu tannagarasya dvārasannidhiṁ prāptēṣu kiyantō lōkā ēkaṁ mr̥tamanujaṁ vahantō nagarasya bahiryānti, sa tanmāturēkaputrastanmātā ca vidhavā; tayā sārddhaṁ tannagarīyā bahavō lōkā āsan|
13 And the Lord, seeing her, was moved with compassion for her, and said to her, Weep not;
prabhustāṁ vilōkya sānukampaḥ kathayāmāsa, mā rōdīḥ| sa samīpamitvā khaṭvāṁ pasparśa tasmād vāhakāḥ sthagitāstamyuḥ;
14 and coming up he touched the bier, and the bearers stopped. And he said, Youth, I say to thee, Wake up.
tadā sa uvāca hē yuvamanuṣya tvamuttiṣṭha, tvāmaham ājñāpayāmi|
15 And the dead sat up and began to speak; and he gave him to his mother.
tasmāt sa mr̥tō janastatkṣaṇamutthāya kathāṁ prakathitaḥ; tatō yīśustasya mātari taṁ samarpayāmāsa|
16 And fear seized on all, and they glorified God, saying, A great prophet has been raised up amongst us; and God has visited his people.
tasmāt sarvvē lōkāḥ śaśaṅkirē; ēkō mahābhaviṣyadvādī madhyē'smākam samudait, īśvaraśca svalōkānanvagr̥hlāt kathāmimāṁ kathayitvā īśvaraṁ dhanyaṁ jagaduḥ|
17 And this report went out in all Judaea concerning him, and in all the surrounding country.
tataḥ paraṁ samastaṁ yihūdādēśaṁ tasya caturdiksthadēśañca tasyaitatkīrtti rvyānaśē|
18 And the disciples of John brought him word concerning all these things:
tataḥ paraṁ yōhanaḥ śiṣyēṣu taṁ tadvr̥ttāntaṁ jñāpitavatsu
19 and John, having called two of his disciples, sent to Jesus, saying, Art thou he that is coming, or are we to wait for another?
sa svaśiṣyāṇāṁ dvau janāvāhūya yīśuṁ prati vakṣyamāṇaṁ vākyaṁ vaktuṁ prēṣayāmāsa, yasyāgamanam apēkṣya tiṣṭhāmō vayaṁ kiṁ sa ēva janastvaṁ? kiṁ vayamanyamapēkṣya sthāsyāmaḥ?
20 But the men having come to him said, John the baptist has sent us to thee, saying, Art thou he that is coming, or are we to wait for another?
paścāttau mānavau gatvā kathayāmāsatuḥ, yasyāgamanam apēkṣya tiṣṭhāmō vayaṁ, kiṁ saēva janastvaṁ? kiṁ vayamanyamapēkṣya sthāsyāmaḥ? kathāmimāṁ tubhyaṁ kathayituṁ yōhan majjaka āvāṁ prēṣitavān|
21 In that hour he healed many of diseases and plagues and evil spirits, and to many blind he granted sight.
tasmin daṇḍē yīśūrōgiṇō mahāvyādhimatō duṣṭabhūtagrastāṁśca bahūn svasthān kr̥tvā, anēkāndhēbhyaścakṣuṁṣi dattvā pratyuvāca,
22 And Jesus answering said to them, Go, bring back word to John of what ye have seen and heard: that blind see, lame walk, lepers are cleansed, deaf hear, dead are raised, poor are evangelized;
yuvāṁ vrajatam andhā nētrāṇi khañjāścaraṇāni ca prāpnuvanti, kuṣṭhinaḥ pariṣkriyantē, badhirāḥ śravaṇāni mr̥tāśca jīvanāni prāpnuvanti, daridrāṇāṁ samīpēṣu susaṁvādaḥ pracāryyatē, yaṁ prati vighnasvarūpōhaṁ na bhavāmi sa dhanyaḥ,
23 and blessed is whosoever shall not be offended in me.
ētāni yāni paśyathaḥ śr̥ṇuthaśca tāni yōhanaṁ jñāpayatam|
24 And the messengers of John having departed, he began to speak to the crowds concerning John: What went ye out into the wilderness to behold? a reed shaken by the wind?
tayō rdūtayō rgatayōḥ satō ryōhani sa lōkān vaktumupacakramē, yūyaṁ madhyēprāntaraṁ kiṁ draṣṭuṁ niragamata? kiṁ vāyunā kampitaṁ naḍaṁ?
25 But what went ye out to see? a man clothed in delicate garments? Behold, those who are in splendid clothing and live luxuriously are in the courts of kings.
yūyaṁ kiṁ draṣṭuṁ niragamata? kiṁ sūkṣmavastraparidhāyinaṁ kamapi naraṁ? kintu yē sūkṣmamr̥duvastrāṇi paridadhati sūttamāni dravyāṇi bhuñjatē ca tē rājadhānīṣu tiṣṭhanti|
26 But what went ye out to see? a prophet? Yea, I say to you, and [what is] more excellent than a prophet.
tarhi yūyaṁ kiṁ draṣṭuṁ niragamata? kimēkaṁ bhaviṣyadvādinaṁ? tadēva satyaṁ kintu sa pumān bhaviṣyadvādinōpi śrēṣṭha ityahaṁ yuṣmān vadāmi;
27 This is he concerning whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee;
paśya svakīyadūtantu tavāgra prēṣayāmyahaṁ| gatvā tvadīyamārgantu sa hi pariṣkariṣyati| yadarthē lipiriyam āstē sa ēva yōhan|
28 for I say unto you, Among them that are born of women a greater [prophet] is no one than John [the baptist]; but he who is a little one in the kingdom of God is greater than he.
atō yuṣmānahaṁ vadāmi striyā garbbhajātānāṁ bhaviṣyadvādināṁ madhyē yōhanō majjakāt śrēṣṭhaḥ kōpi nāsti, tatrāpi īśvarasya rājyē yaḥ sarvvasmāt kṣudraḥ sa yōhanōpi śrēṣṭhaḥ|
29 (And all the people who heard [it], and the tax-gatherers, justified God, having been baptised with the baptism of John;
aparañca sarvvē lōkāḥ karamañcāyinaśca tasya vākyāni śrutvā yōhanā majjanēna majjitāḥ paramēśvaraṁ nirdōṣaṁ mēnirē|
30 but the Pharisees and the lawyers rendered null as to themselves the counsel of God, not having been baptised by him.)
kintu phirūśinō vyavasthāpakāśca tēna na majjitāḥ svān pratīśvarasyōpadēśaṁ niṣphalam akurvvan|
31 To whom therefore shall I liken the men of this generation, and to whom are they like?
atha prabhuḥ kathayāmāsa, idānīntanajanān kēnōpamāmi? tē kasya sadr̥śāḥ?
32 They are like children sitting in the market-place, and calling one to another and saying, We have piped to you, and ye have not danced; we have mourned to you, and ye have not wept.
yē bālakā vipaṇyām upaviśya parasparam āhūya vākyamidaṁ vadanti, vayaṁ yuṣmākaṁ nikaṭē vaṁśīravādiṣma, kintu yūyaṁ nānarttiṣṭa, vayaṁ yuṣmākaṁ nikaṭa arōdiṣma, kintu yuyaṁ na vyalapiṣṭa, bālakairētādr̥śaistēṣām upamā bhavati|
33 For John the baptist has come neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and ye say, He has a demon.
yatō yōhan majjaka āgatya pūpaṁ nākhādat drākṣārasañca nāpivat tasmād yūyaṁ vadatha, bhūtagrastōyam|
34 The Son of man has come eating and drinking, and ye say, Behold an eater and wine-drinker, a friend of tax-gatherers and sinners;
tataḥ paraṁ mānavasuta āgatyākhādadapivañca tasmād yūyaṁ vadatha, khādakaḥ surāpaścāṇḍālapāpināṁ bandhurēkō janō dr̥śyatām|
35 and wisdom has been justified of all her children.
kintu jñāninō jñānaṁ nirdōṣaṁ viduḥ|
36 But one of the Pharisees begged him that he would eat with him. And entering into the house of the Pharisee he took his place at table;
paścādēkaḥ phirūśī yīśuṁ bhōjanāya nyamantrayat tataḥ sa tasya gr̥haṁ gatvā bhōktumupaviṣṭaḥ|
37 and behold, a woman in the city, who was a sinner, and knew that he was sitting at meat in the house of the Pharisee, having taken an alabaster box of myrrh,
ētarhi tatphirūśinō gr̥hē yīśu rbhēktum upāvēkṣīt tacchrutvā tannagaravāsinī kāpi duṣṭā nārī pāṇḍaraprastarasya sampuṭakē sugandhitailam ānīya
38 and standing at his feet behind [him] weeping, began to wash his feet with tears; and she wiped them with the hairs of her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed [them] with the myrrh.
tasya paścāt pādayōḥ sannidhau tasyau rudatī ca nētrāmbubhistasya caraṇau prakṣālya nijakacairamārkṣīt, tatastasya caraṇau cumbitvā tēna sugandhitailēna mamarda|
39 And the Pharisee who had invited him, seeing it, spoke with himself saying, This [person] if he were a prophet would have known who and what the woman is who touches him, for she is a sinner.
tasmāt sa nimantrayitā phirūśī manasā cintayāmāsa, yadyayaṁ bhaviṣyadvādī bhavēt tarhi ēnaṁ spr̥śati yā strī sā kā kīdr̥śī cēti jñātuṁ śaknuyāt yataḥ sā duṣṭā|
40 And Jesus answering said to him, Simon, I have somewhat to say to thee. And he says, Teacher, say [it].
tadā yāśustaṁ jagāda, hē śimōn tvāṁ prati mama kiñcid vaktavyamasti; tasmāt sa babhāṣē, hē gurō tad vadatu|
41 There were two debtors of a certain creditor: one owed five hundred denarii and the other fifty;
ēkōttamarṇasya dvāvadhamarṇāvāstāṁ, tayōrēkaḥ pañcaśatāni mudrāpādān aparaśca pañcāśat mudrāpādān dhārayāmāsa|
42 but as they had nothing to pay, he forgave both of them [their debt]: [say, ] which of them therefore will love him most?
tadanantaraṁ tayōḥ śōdhyābhāvāt sa uttamarṇastayō rr̥ṇē cakṣamē; tasmāt tayōrdvayōḥ kastasmin prēṣyatē bahu? tad brūhi|
43 And Simon answering said, I suppose he to whom he forgave the most. And he said to him, Thou hast rightly judged.
śimōn pratyuvāca, mayā budhyatē yasyādhikam r̥ṇaṁ cakṣamē sa iti; tatō yīśustaṁ vyājahāra, tvaṁ yathārthaṁ vyacārayaḥ|
44 And turning to the woman he said to Simon, Seest thou this woman? I entered into thy house; thou gavest me not water on my feet, but she has washed my feet with tears, and wiped them with her hair.
atha tāṁ nārīṁ prati vyāghuṭhya śimōnamavōcat, strīmimāṁ paśyasi? tava gr̥hē mayyāgatē tvaṁ pādaprakṣālanārthaṁ jalaṁ nādāḥ kintu yōṣidēṣā nayanajalai rmama pādau prakṣālya kēśairamārkṣīt|
45 Thou gavest me not a kiss, but she from the time I came in has not ceased kissing my feet.
tvaṁ māṁ nācumbīḥ kintu yōṣidēṣā svīyāgamanādārabhya madīyapādau cumbituṁ na vyaraṁsta|
46 My head with oil thou didst not anoint, but she has anointed my feet with myrrh.
tvañca madīyōttamāṅgē kiñcidapi tailaṁ nāmardīḥ kintu yōṣidēṣā mama caraṇau sugandhitailēnāmarddīt|
47 For which cause I say to thee, Her many sins are forgiven; for she loved much; but he to whom little is forgiven loves little.
atastvāṁ vyāharāmi, ētasyā bahu pāpamakṣamyata tatō bahu prīyatē kintu yasyālpapāpaṁ kṣamyatē sōlpaṁ prīyatē|
48 And he said to her, Thy sins are forgiven.
tataḥ paraṁ sa tāṁ babhāṣē, tvadīyaṁ pāpamakṣamyata|
49 And they that were with [them] at table began to say within themselves, Who is this who forgives also sins?
tadā tēna sārddhaṁ yē bhōktum upaviviśustē parasparaṁ vaktumārēbhirē, ayaṁ pāpaṁ kṣamatē ka ēṣaḥ?
50 And he said to the woman, Thy faith has saved thee; go in peace.
kintu sa tāṁ nārīṁ jagāda, tava viśvāsastvāṁ paryyatrāsta tvaṁ kṣēmēṇa vraja|
