< Luke 16 >

1 THEN said he also to his disciples, There was a certain rich man, who had a steward; and he received an information against him, as having dissipated his treasures.
फेर यीशु नै चेल्यां ताहीं एक और उदाहरण देकै कह्या, “किसे साहूकार का एक भण्डारी था, अर लोग्गां नै उसकै स्याम्ही उसपै यो इल्जाम लाया के वो तेरा सारा धन उड़ा देवै सै।
2 And calling him, he said to him, What is this report I hear of thee? give up the account of thy stewardship; for thou mayest be no longer in that office.
आखर म्ह उसनै अपणे भण्डारी ताहीं बुलाकै कह्या, ‘यो के सै मै तेरे बाबत के सुणु सूं?’ अपणे भण्डारीपण का हिसाब दे, क्यूँके तू आग्गै तै भण्डारी कोनी रह सकदा।”
3 Then the steward said within himself, What shall I do? because my master is taking away the stewardship from me: to dig, I have not the strength; to beg, I am ashamed.
फेर भण्डारी सोच्चण लाग्या, इब मै के करुँ? क्यूँके मेरा माल्लिक इब भण्डारी का काम मेरै तै खोस्सै सै। माट्टी खोदण का काम मेरै तै होवै कोनी, अर भीख माँगदे होए मन्नै शर्म आवैगी।
4 I know what I will do, that, when I am removed from the stewardship, they may entertain me at their houses.
मै जाण ग्या के मै के करुँ, ताके मै जिब भण्डारी कै काम तै हटाया जाऊँ तो माणस मन्नै अपणे घरां म्ह ले लेवै।
5 So calling upon every one of his master’s debtors, he said to the first, How much owest thou to my master?
फेर उसनै अपणे माल्लिक के देणदारां ताहीं एक-एक करकै बुलाया अर पैहल्या तै बुझ्झया, “तेरे उप्पर मेरै माल्लिक का कितना कर्जा सै?”
6 And he said, A hundred baths of oil. And he said, Take thy account, and sit down directly, and write fifty.
उसनै कह्या, “सौ मण तेल,” फेर उसनै उसतै कह्या, “अपणा खात्ता अर बही ले अर बैठकै तावळा पचास लिख दे।”
7 Then said he to another, And how much owest thou? And he said, An hundred core of wheat. And he saith to him, Take thy account, and write fourscore.
फेर उसनै दुसरे तै बुझ्झया, “तेरे पै कितना कर्जा सै?” दुसरे नै कह्या, सौ मण गेहूँ, फेर उसनै उसतै कह्या, “अपणा खात्ता अर बही लेकै अर बैठकै अस्सी लिख दे।”
8 And the master praised the unjust steward, because he had acted providently: for the children of this world are more provident among their own generation of men, than the children of light. (aiōn g165)
माल्लिक नै उस अधर्मी भण्डारी ताहीं सराहया के उसनै कितनी चतुराई तै काम करया सै। क्यूँके इस दुनिया के माणस अपणे बखत के माणसां के गेल्या व्यवहार म्ह चाँदणे के माणसां तै घणे चलाक सै। (aiōn g165)
9 And I say unto you, Make yourselves friends with the unrighteous mammon that when ye fail, they may receive you into the eternal mansions. (aiōnios g166)
अर मै थमनै कहूँ सूं के दुनिया की धन-दौलत तै भले काम करकै अपणे खात्तर साथी बणा ल्यो, ताके जिब वो धन दौलत न्ही रहवैं तो अनन्त काल के घर म्ह थारे स्वागत हो। (aiōnios g166)
10 He that is faithful in the least thing, is faithful also in much: and he who is unjust in the least, is unjust also in much.
वे लोग जो थोड़े-तै भी थोड़े म्ह भी बिश्वास जोग्गे सै, वे घणे म्ह भी बिश्वास जोग्गे होंगे, जो थोड़े-तै भी थोड़े म्ह बेईमान सै, वो घणा म्ह भी बेईमान होंगे।
11 If therefore ye have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will entrust you with the true?
इस करकै जिब थम संसारिक धन म्ह बिश्वास जोग्गा न्ही ठहरे, तो साच्चा धन थमनै कौण देवैगा?
12 and if ye have not been faithful in that which belongs to another, who will give up to you that which is your own?
अर जै थम संसारिक धन-दौलत न इस्तमाल करण म्ह भरोस्सेमंद न्ही ठहरे, तो परमेसवर थमनै सुर्गीय धन क्यूँ देवैगा?
13 No domestic can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or he will cleave to the one, and neglect the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.
“कोए नौक्कर दो मालिकां की सेवा एक बखत पै न्ही कर सकदा, क्यूँके वो एक तै बैर अर दुसरे तै प्यार राक्खैगा, या एक तै मिल्या रहवैगा अर दुसरे नै छोट्टा जाणैगा। थम परमेसवर अर धन दोनुआ की सेवा न्ही कर सकदे।”
14 Then the Pharisees also, who were dear lovers of money, heard all these things, and they sneered at him.
फरीसी जो लोभ्भी थे, ये सारी बात सुणकै, मखौल करण लाग्गे।
15 And he said unto them, Ye are they who affect to be righteous persons before men; but God knoweth your hearts: for that which is highly esteemed among men, is an abomination in the sight of God.
यीशु नै उनतै कह्या, “थम तो माणसां कै स्याम्ही खुद नै धर्मी ठहराओ सो, पर परमेसवर थारे मन नै जाणै सै, क्यूँके जो चीज माणसां की निगांह म्ह महान् सै, वा परमेसवर कै लोवै घृणित सै।”
16 The law and the prophets were until John: since that the kingdom of God is preached, and every man presseth into it.
जब तक यूहन्ना आया, जिब ताहीं मूसा के नियम-कायदे अर नबी का प्रभाव माणसां पै रह्या। उस बखत तै परमेसवर के राज्य का सुसमाचार सुणाया जाण लागरया सै, अर हरेक उस म्ह तेज्जी तै इसकी ओड़ खिचे आण लागरे सै।
17 But it is easier for heaven and earth to pass away, than for one tittle of the law to fail.
अकास अर धरती का टळ जाणा आसान सै, पर नियम-कायदा की हर छोट्टी बात भी पूरी होकै रहवैगी।
18 Every one who putteth away his wife and marrieth another, committeth adultery: and every one who marrieth a woman divorced from her husband, committeth adultery.
उदाहरण के तौर पै “जो कोए अपणी घरआळी नै छोड़कै दुसरी तै ब्याह करै सै, वो जारी करै सै, अर जो कोए इसी छोड्डी होई बिरबान्नी तै ब्याह करै सै, वो भी जारी करै सै।”
19 Now there was a certain rich man, and he was clothed in purple and fine linen, making splendid entertainments every day:
फेर यीशु नै कह्या, “एक साहूकार माणस था जो बैंजनी अर मलमल के महँगे लत्ते पहरदा अर हरेक दिन ऐसो-आराम तै अर मौज तै रहवैं था।
20 and there was a certain pauper, named Lazarus, who was laid at his gate covered with ulcers,
लाजर नाम का एक कंगाल जिसकै घा: होरे थे उसकी देहळी पै छोड़ दिया जावै था।
21 and importunately desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man’s table: yea even the dogs came and licked his ulcers.
अर वो चाहवै था, के साहूकार के मेज की जूठण तै अपणा पेट भरै, उरै ताहीं के कुत्ते भी आकै उसके घा: नै चाट्या करै थे।”
22 Now it came to pass that the poor man died, and was carried up by angels into the bosom of Abraham. Then the rich man also died, and was buried:
इसा होया के वो कंगाल मरग्या, अर सुर्गदूत्तां नै उस ताहीं लेकै अब्राहम की गोद म्ह पोंहच्या। वो साहूकार भी मारया अर गाड्या गया,
23 and in hell, lifting up his eyes, being in torments, he seeth Abraham at a vast distance, and Lazarus in his bosom. (Hadēs g86)
साहूकार नरक म्ह गेरया गया, अर नरक की ताड़ना तै दर्द म्ह पड़े होए अपणी निगांह ठाई, दूर तै ए अब्राहम के साथ लाजर ताहीं देख्या। (Hadēs g86)
24 And crying out, he said, Father Abraham, have compassion on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented with this flame.
फेर उसनै रुक्का मारकै कह्या, हे पिता अब्राहम, मेरै पै दया करकै लाजर नै भेजदे, ताके वो अपणी आन्गळी का कुणा पाणी म्ह डबोकै मेरी जीभ नै शीळी करै, क्यूँके मै इस आग तै तड़फूं सूं।
25 But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou hast received thy good things during thy life, and Lazarus, in like manner, what was afflictive: but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented.
“पर अब्राहम बोल्या, ‘हे बेट्टे, याद कर, के तन्नै अपणी जिन्दगी म्ह बढ़िया तै बढ़िया चीज ले ली सै’, अर उस्से तरियां लाजर नै तुच्छ चीज, पर इब वो उरै सुख अर शान्ति पा रह्या सै, अर तू तड़फ रह्या सै।
26 And besides all these considerations, between us and you there is a vast chasm fixed: so that they who might be willing to pass from hence to you, cannot; neither can they pass through to us, from thence.
इन सबके अलावा म्हारै अर तेरे बिचाळै एक बड़ी खाई ठहराई गई सै, के जो उरै तै तेरी ओड़ आणा चाहवै, वे ना जा सकै, अर ना कोए उड़ै इस पास्सै म्हारै धोरै आ सकै।”
27 And he said, I entreat thee then, father, that thou wouldest send him to my paternal mansion:
साहूकार बोल्या, तो हे पिता, मै तेरे तै बिनती करुँ सूं, के उस ताहीं मेरै बाप कै घरां भेज,
28 for I have five brothers: that he may testify to them, that they also come not into this place of torment.
क्यूँके मेरे पाँच भाई सै, वो उनकै स्याम्ही इन बात्तां की गवाही दे, इसा ना हो के वे भी दुख की जगहां म्ह आवै।
29 Abraham saith to him, They have Moses and the prophets; let them hearken to them.
अब्राहम नै उसतै कह्या, उनकै धोरै तो मूसा के नियम-कायदे, नबी अर नबियाँ की किताब सै, वे उनकी सुणै।
30 But he said, Ah no, father Abraham! but if one came to them from the dead, they will repent.
साहूकार बोल्या, “न्ही, पिता अब्राहम, पर जै कोए मरे होया म्ह तै उनकै धोरै जावै, तो वे पाप करणा छोड़ देंगे।”
31 Then he said to him, If they hearken not to Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded though one rose from the dead.
अब्राहम नै उसतै कह्या, “जिब वे मूसा नबी अर नबियाँ की न्ही सुणदे, तो जै मरे होया म्ह तै कोए जी भी जा, तोभी उसकी कोनी मान्नैगें।”
