< John 16 >

1 These things have I spoken unto you, that ye should not be offended.
yuṣmākaṁ yathā vādhā na jāyate tadarthaṁ yuṣmān etāni sarvvavākyāni vyāharaṁ|
2 They shall put you out of the synagogues: yea, the time cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God service.
lokā yuṣmān bhajanagṛhebhyo dūrīkariṣyanti tathā yasmin samaye yuṣmān hatvā īśvarasya tuṣṭi janakaṁ karmmākurmma iti maṁsyante sa samaya āgacchanti|
3 And these things will they do unto you, because they have not known the Father, nor me.
te pitaraṁ māñca na jānanti, tasmād yuṣmān pratīdṛśam ācariṣyanti|
4 But these things have I told you, that when the time shall come, ye may remember that I told you of them. And these things I said not unto you at the beginning, because I was with you.
ato hetāḥ samaye samupasthite yathā mama kathā yuṣmākaṁ manaḥsuḥ samupatiṣṭhati tadarthaṁ yuṣmābhyam etāṁ kathāṁ kathayāmi yuṣmābhiḥ sārddham ahaṁ tiṣṭhan prathamaṁ tāṁ yuṣmabhyaṁ nākathayaṁ|
5 But now I go my way to him that sent me; and none of you asketh me, Whither goest thou?
sāmprataṁ svasya prerayituḥ samīpaṁ gacchāmi tathāpi tvaṁ kka gacchasi kathāmetāṁ yuṣmākaṁ kopi māṁ na pṛcchati|
6 But because I have said these things unto you, sorrow hath filled your heart.
kintu mayoktābhirābhiḥ kathābhi ryūṣmākam antaḥkaraṇāni duḥkhena pūrṇānyabhavan|
7 Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you.
tathāpyahaṁ yathārthaṁ kathayāmi mama gamanaṁ yuṣmākaṁ hitārthameva, yato heto rgamane na kṛte sahāyo yuṣmākaṁ samīpaṁ nāgamiṣyati kintu yadi gacchāmi tarhi yuṣmākaṁ samīpe taṁ preṣayiṣyāmi|
8 And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment:
tataḥ sa āgatya pāpapuṇyadaṇḍeṣu jagato lokānāṁ prabodhaṁ janayiṣyati|
9 Of sin, because they believe not on me;
te mayi na viśvasanti tasmāddhetoḥ pāpaprabodhaṁ janayiṣyati|
10 Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more;
yuṣmākam adṛśyaḥ sannahaṁ pituḥ samīpaṁ gacchāmi tasmād puṇye prabodhaṁ janayiṣyati|
11 Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged.
etajjagato'dhipati rdaṇḍājñāṁ prāpnoti tasmād daṇḍe prabodhaṁ janayiṣyati|
12 I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now.
yuṣmabhyaṁ kathayituṁ mamānekāḥ kathā āsate, tāḥ kathā idānīṁ yūyaṁ soḍhuṁ na śaknutha;
13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, [that] shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.
kintu satyamaya ātmā yadā samāgamiṣyati tadā sarvvaṁ satyaṁ yuṣmān neṣyati, sa svataḥ kimapi na vadiṣyati kintu yacchroṣyati tadeva kathayitvā bhāvikāryyaṁ yuṣmān jñāpayiṣyati|
14 He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall shew [it] unto you.
mama mahimānaṁ prakāśayiṣyati yato madīyāṁ kathāṁ gṛhītvā yuṣmān bodhayiṣyati|
15 All things that the Father hath are mine: therefore said I, that he shall take of mine, and shall shew [it] unto you.
pitu ryadyad āste tat sarvvaṁ mama tasmād kāraṇād avādiṣaṁ sa madīyāṁ kathāṁ gṛhītvā yuṣmān bodhayiṣyati|
16 A little while, and ye shall not see me: and again, a little while, and ye shall see me, because I go to the Father.
kiyatkālāt paraṁ yūyaṁ māṁ draṣṭuṁ na lapsyadhve kintu kiyatkālāt paraṁ puna rdraṣṭuṁ lapsyadhve yatohaṁ pituḥ samīpaṁ gacchāmi|
17 Then said [some] of his disciples among themselves, What is this that he saith unto us, A little while, and ye shall not see me: and again, a little while, and ye shall see me: and, Because I go to the Father?
tataḥ śiṣyāṇāṁ kiyanto janāḥ parasparaṁ vaditum ārabhanta, kiyatkālāt paraṁ māṁ draṣṭuṁ na lapsyadhve kintu kiyatkālāt paraṁ puna rdraṣṭuṁ lapsyadhve yatohaṁ pituḥ samīpaṁ gacchāmi, iti yad vākyam ayaṁ vadati tat kiṁ?
18 They said therefore, What is this that he saith, A little while? we cannot tell what he saith.
tataḥ kiyatkālāt param iti tasya vākyaṁ kiṁ? tasya vākyasyābhiprāyaṁ vayaṁ boddhuṁ na śaknumastairiti
19 Now Jesus knew that they were desirous to ask him, and said unto them, Do ye enquire among yourselves of that I said, A little while, and ye shall not see me: and again, a little while, and ye shall see me?
nigadite yīśusteṣāṁ praśnecchāṁ jñātvā tebhyo'kathayat kiyatkālāt paraṁ māṁ draṣṭuṁ na lapsyadhve, kintu kiyatkālāt paraṁ pūna rdraṣṭuṁ lapsyadhve, yāmimāṁ kathāmakathayaṁ tasyā abhiprāyaṁ kiṁ yūyaṁ parasparaṁ mṛgayadhve?
20 Verily, verily, I say unto you, That ye shall weep and lament, but the world shall rejoice: and ye shall be sorrowful, but your sorrow shall be turned into joy.
yuṣmānaham atiyathārthaṁ vadāmi yūyaṁ krandiṣyatha vilapiṣyatha ca, kintu jagato lokā ānandiṣyanti; yūyaṁ śokākulā bhaviṣyatha kintu śokāt paraṁ ānandayuktā bhaviṣyatha|
21 A woman when she is in travail hath sorrow, because her hour is come: but as soon as she is delivered of the child, she remembereth no more the anguish, for joy that a man is born into the world.
prasavakāla upasthite nārī yathā prasavavedanayā vyākulā bhavati kintu putre bhūmiṣṭhe sati manuṣyaiko janmanā naraloke praviṣṭa ityānandāt tasyāstatsarvvaṁ duḥkhaṁ manasi na tiṣṭhati,
22 And ye now therefore have sorrow: but I will see you again, and your heart shall rejoice, and your joy no man taketh from you.
tathā yūyamapi sāmprataṁ śokākulā bhavatha kintu punarapi yuṣmabhyaṁ darśanaṁ dāsyāmi tena yuṣmākam antaḥkaraṇāni sānandāni bhaviṣyanti, yuṣmākaṁ tam ānandañca kopi harttuṁ na śakṣyati|
23 And in that day ye shall ask me nothing. Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall ask the Father in my name, he will give [it] you.
tasmin divase kāmapi kathāṁ māṁ na prakṣyatha| yuṣmānaham atiyathārthaṁ vadāmi, mama nāmnā yat kiñcid pitaraṁ yāciṣyadhve tadeva sa dāsyati|
24 Hitherto have ye asked nothing in my name: ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full.
pūrvve mama nāmnā kimapi nāyācadhvaṁ, yācadhvaṁ tataḥ prāpsyatha tasmād yuṣmākaṁ sampūrṇānando janiṣyate|
25 These things have I spoken unto you in proverbs: but the time cometh, when I shall no more speak unto you in proverbs, but I shall shew you plainly of the Father.
upamākathābhiḥ sarvvāṇyetāni yuṣmān jñāpitavān kintu yasmin samaye upamayā noktvā pituḥ kathāṁ spaṣṭaṁ jñāpayiṣyāmi samaya etādṛśa āgacchati|
26 At that day ye shall ask in my name: and I say not unto you, that I will pray the Father for you:
tadā mama nāmnā prārthayiṣyadhve 'haṁ yuṣmannimittaṁ pitaraṁ vineṣye kathāmimāṁ na vadāmi;
27 For the Father himself loveth you, because ye have loved me, and have believed that I came out from God.
yato yūyaṁ mayi prema kurutha, tathāham īśvarasya samīpād āgatavān ityapi pratītha, tasmād kāraṇāt kāraṇāt pitā svayaṁ yuṣmāsu prīyate|
28 I came forth from the Father, and am come into the world: again, I leave the world, and go to the Father.
pituḥ samīpājjajad āgatosmi jagat parityajya ca punarapi pituḥ samīpaṁ gacchāmi|
29 His disciples said unto him, Lo, now speakest thou plainly, and speakest no proverb.
tadā śiṣyā avadan, he prabho bhavān upamayā noktvādhunā spaṣṭaṁ vadati|
30 Now are we sure that thou knowest all things, and needest not that any man should ask thee: by this we believe that thou camest forth from God.
bhavān sarvvajñaḥ kenacit pṛṣṭo bhavitumapi bhavataḥ prayojanaṁ nāstītyadhunāsmākaṁ sthirajñānaṁ jātaṁ tasmād bhavān īśvarasya samīpād āgatavān ityatra vayaṁ viśvasimaḥ|
31 Jesus answered them, Do ye now believe?
tato yīśuḥ pratyavādīd idānīṁ kiṁ yūyaṁ viśvasitha?
32 Behold, the hour cometh, yea, is now come, that ye shall be scattered, every man to his own, and shall leave me alone: and yet I am not alone, because the Father is with me.
paśyata sarvve yūyaṁ vikīrṇāḥ santo mām ekākinaṁ pīratyajya svaṁ svaṁ sthānaṁ gamiṣyatha, etādṛśaḥ samaya āgacchati varaṁ prāyeṇopasthitavān; tathāpyahaṁ naikākī bhavāmi yataḥ pitā mayā sārddham āste|
33 These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.
yathā mayā yuṣmākaṁ śānti rjāyate tadartham etāḥ kathā yuṣmabhyam acakathaṁ; asmin jagati yuṣmākaṁ kleśo ghaṭiṣyate kintvakṣobhā bhavata yato mayā jagajjitaṁ|
