< Luke 11 >

1 And it came to pass, in His being in a certain place praying, as He ceased, a certain one of His disciples said to Him, “Lord, teach us to pray, as also John taught his disciples.”
anantaraṁ sa kasmiṁścit sthāne prārthayata tatsamāptau satyāṁ tasyaikaḥ śiṣyastaṁ jagāda he prabho yohan yathā svaśiṣyān prārthayitum upadiṣṭavān tathā bhavānapyasmān upadiśatu|
2 And He said to them, “When you may pray, say: Our Father who is in the heavens, hallowed be Your Name; Your kingdom come, Your will come to pass, as in Heaven also on earth;
tasmāt sa kathayāmāsa, prārthanakāle yūyam itthaṁ kathayadhvaṁ, he asmākaṁ svargasthapitastava nāma pūjyaṁ bhavatu; tava rājatvaṁ bhavatu; svarge yathā tathā pṛthivyāmapi tavecchayā sarvvaṁ bhavatu|
3 be giving us daily our appointed bread;
pratyaham asmākaṁ prayojanīyaṁ bhojyaṁ dehi|
4 and forgive us our sins, for we also ourselves forgive everyone indebted to us; and may You not bring us into temptation, but deliver us from the evil [one].”
yathā vayaṁ sarvvān aparādhinaḥ kṣamāmahe tathā tvamapi pāpānyasmākaṁ kṣamasva| asmān parīkṣāṁ mānaya kintu pāpātmano rakṣa|
5 And He said to them, “Who of you will have a friend, and will go on to him at midnight, and may say to him, Friend, lend me three loaves,
paścāt soparamapi kathitavān yadi yuṣmākaṁ kasyacid bandhustiṣṭhati niśīthe ca tasya samīpaṁ sa gatvā vadati,
6 seeing a friend of mine came out of the way to me, and I have not what I will set before him,
he bandho pathika eko bandhu rmama niveśanam āyātaḥ kintu tasyātithyaṁ karttuṁ mamāntike kimapi nāsti, ataeva pūpatrayaṁ mahyam ṛṇaṁ dehi;
7 and he from within answering may say, Do not give me trouble, the door has already been shut, and my children are with me in the bed, I am not able, having risen, to give to you.
tadā sa yadi gṛhamadhyāt prativadati māṁ mā kliśāna, idānīṁ dvāraṁ ruddhaṁ śayane mayā saha bālakāśca tiṣṭhanti tubhyaṁ dātum utthātuṁ na śaknomi,
8 I say to you, even if he will not give to him, having risen, because of his being his friend, yet because of his persistence, having risen, he will give him as many as he needs;
tarhi yuṣmānahaṁ vadāmi, sa yadi mitratayā tasmai kimapi dātuṁ nottiṣṭhati tathāpi vāraṁ vāraṁ prārthanāta utthāpitaḥ san yasmin tasya prayojanaṁ tadeva dāsyati|
9 and I say to you, ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you;
ataḥ kāraṇāt kathayāmi, yācadhvaṁ tato yuṣmabhyaṁ dāsyate, mṛgayadhvaṁ tata uddeśaṁ prāpsyatha, dvāram āhata tato yuṣmabhyaṁ dvāraṁ mokṣyate|
10 for everyone who is asking receives; and he who is seeking finds; and to him who is knocking it will be opened.
yo yācate sa prāpnoti, yo mṛgayate sa evoddeśaṁ prāpnoti, yo dvāram āhanti tadarthaṁ dvāraṁ mocyate|
11 And of which of you—the father—[if] the son will ask [for] a loaf, will present to him a stone? And [if] a fish, instead of a fish, will present to him a serpent?
putreṇa pūpe yācite tasmai pāṣāṇaṁ dadāti vā matsye yācite tasmai sarpaṁ dadāti
12 And [if] he may ask [for] an egg, will present to him a scorpion?
vā aṇḍe yācite tasmai vṛścikaṁ dadāti yuṣmākaṁ madhye ka etādṛśaḥ pitāste?
13 If, then, you, being evil, have known to be giving good gifts to your children, how much more will the Father who is from Heaven give the Holy Spirit to those asking Him!”
tasmādeva yūyamabhadrā api yadi svasvabālakebhya uttamāni dravyāṇi dātuṁ jānītha tarhyasmākaṁ svargasthaḥ pitā nijayācakebhyaḥ kiṁ pavitram ātmānaṁ na dāsyati?
14 And He was casting forth a demon, and it was mute, and it came to pass, the demon having gone forth, the mute man spoke, and the multitudes wondered,
anantaraṁ yīśunā kasmāccid ekasmin mūkabhūte tyājite sati sa bhūtatyakto mānuṣo vākyaṁ vaktum ārebhe; tato lokāḥ sakalā āścaryyaṁ menire|
15 and certain of them said, “By Beelzebul, ruler of the demons, He casts forth the demons”;
kintu teṣāṁ kecidūcu rjanoyaṁ bālasibūbā arthād bhūtarājena bhūtān tyājayati|
16 and others, tempting, were asking [for] a sign out of Heaven from Him.
taṁ parīkṣituṁ kecid ākāśīyam ekaṁ cihnaṁ darśayituṁ taṁ prārthayāñcakrire|
17 And He, knowing their thoughts, said to them, “Every kingdom having been divided against itself is desolated; and house against house falls;
tadā sa teṣāṁ manaḥkalpanāṁ jñātvā kathayāmāsa, kasyacid rājyasya lokā yadi parasparaṁ virundhanti tarhi tad rājyam naśyati; kecid gṛhasthā yadi parasparaṁ virundhanti tarhi tepi naśyanti|
18 and if Satan was also divided against himself, how will his kingdom be made to stand? For you say by Beelzebul is My casting forth the demons,
tathaiva śaitānapi svalokān yadi viruṇaddhi tadā tasya rājyaṁ kathaṁ sthāsyati? bālasibūbāhaṁ bhūtān tyājayāmi yūyamiti vadatha|
19 but if I, by Beelzebul, cast forth the demons—your sons, by whom do they cast forth? Because of this they will be your judges;
yadyahaṁ bālasibūbā bhūtān tyājayāmi tarhi yuṣmākaṁ santānāḥ kena tyājayanti? tasmāt taeva kathāyā etasyā vicārayitāro bhaviṣyanti|
20 but if by the finger of God I cast forth the demons, then the Kingdom of God came unaware on you.
kintu yadyaham īśvarasya parākrameṇa bhūtān tyājayāmi tarhi yuṣmākaṁ nikaṭam īśvarasya rājyamavaśyam upatiṣṭhati|
21 When the strong man may keep his hall armed, his goods are in peace;
balavān pumān susajjamāno yatikālaṁ nijāṭṭālikāṁ rakṣati tatikālaṁ tasya dravyaṁ nirupadravaṁ tiṣṭhati|
22 but when the stronger than he, having come on [him], may overcome him, he takes away his whole armor in which he had trusted, and he distributes his spoils;
kintu tasmād adhikabalaḥ kaścidāgatya yadi taṁ jayati tarhi yeṣu śastrāstreṣu tasya viśvāsa āsīt tāni sarvvāṇi hṛtvā tasya dravyāṇi gṛhlāti|
23 he who is not with Me is against Me, and he who is not gathering with Me scatters.
ataḥ kāraṇād yo mama sapakṣo na sa vipakṣaḥ, yo mayā saha na saṁgṛhlāti sa vikirati|
24 When the unclean spirit may go forth from the man, it walks through waterless places seeking rest, and not finding, it says, I will return to my house from where I came forth;
aparañca amedhyabhūto mānuṣasyāntarnirgatya śuṣkasthāne bhrāntvā viśrāmaṁ mṛgayate kintu na prāpya vadati mama yasmād gṛhād āgatohaṁ punastad gṛhaṁ parāvṛtya yāmi|
25 and having come, it finds [it] swept and adorned;
tato gatvā tad gṛhaṁ mārjitaṁ śobhitañca dṛṣṭvā
26 then it goes, and takes to it seven other spirits more evil than itself, and having entered, they dwell there, and the last of that man becomes worse than the first.”
tatkṣaṇam apagatya svasmādapi durmmatīn aparān saptabhūtān sahānayati te ca tadgṛhaṁ paviśya nivasanti| tasmāt tasya manuṣyasya prathamadaśātaḥ śeṣadaśā duḥkhatarā bhavati|
27 And it came to pass, in His saying these things, a certain woman having lifted up the voice out of the multitude, said to Him, “Blessed the womb that carried You, and the breasts that You sucked!”
asyāḥ kathāyāḥ kathanakāle janatāmadhyasthā kācinnārī tamuccaiḥsvaraṁ provāca, yā yoṣit tvāṁ garbbhe'dhārayat stanyamapāyayacca saiva dhanyā|
28 And He said, “Indeed, rather, blessed those hearing the word of God, and keeping [it]!”
kintu sokathayat ye parameśvarasya kathāṁ śrutvā tadanurūpam ācaranti taeva dhanyāḥ|
29 And the multitudes crowding together on Him, He began to say, “This generation is evil, it seeks after a sign, and a sign will not be given to it, except the sign of Jonah the prophet,
tataḥ paraṁ tasyāntike bahulokānāṁ samāgame jāte sa vaktumārebhe, ādhunikā duṣṭalokāścihnaṁ draṣṭumicchanti kintu yūnasbhaviṣyadvādinaścihnaṁ vinānyat kiñciccihnaṁ tān na darśayiṣyate|
30 for as Jonah became a sign to the Ninevites, so also will the Son of Man be to this generation.
yūnas tu yathā nīnivīyalokānāṁ samīpe cihnarūpobhavat tathā vidyamānalokānām eṣāṁ samīpe manuṣyaputropi cihnarūpo bhaviṣyati|
31 A queen of the south will rise up in the judgment with the men of this generation, and will condemn them, because she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and behold, [One] greater than Solomon [is] here!
vicārasamaye idānīntanalokānāṁ prātikūlyena dakṣiṇadeśīyā rājñī protthāya tān doṣiṇaḥ kariṣyati, yataḥ sā rājñī sulemāna upadeśakathāṁ śrotuṁ pṛthivyāḥ sīmāta āgacchat kintu paśyata sulemānopi gurutara eko jano'smin sthāne vidyate|
32 Men of Nineveh will stand up in the judgment with this generation, and will condemn it, because they converted at the proclamation of Jonah; and behold, [One] greater than Jonah [is] here!
aparañca vicārasamaye nīnivīyalokā api varttamānakālikānāṁ lokānāṁ vaiparītyena protthāya tān doṣiṇaḥ kariṣyanti, yato hetoste yūnaso vākyāt cittāni parivarttayāmāsuḥ kintu paśyata yūnasotigurutara eko jano'smin sthāne vidyate|
33 And no one having lighted a lamp, puts [it] in a secret place, nor under the measure, but on the lampstand, that those coming in may behold the light.
pradīpaṁ prajvālya droṇasyādhaḥ kutrāpi guptasthāne vā kopi na sthāpayati kintu gṛhapraveśibhyo dīptiṁ dātaṁ dīpādhāroparyyeva sthāpayati|
34 The lamp of the body is the eye, when then your eye may be simple, your whole body is also lightened; and when it may be evil, your body is also darkened;
dehasya pradīpaścakṣustasmādeva cakṣu ryadi prasannaṁ bhavati tarhi tava sarvvaśarīraṁ dīptimad bhaviṣyati kintu cakṣu ryadi malīmasaṁ tiṣṭhati tarhi sarvvaśarīraṁ sāndhakāraṁ sthāsyati|
35 take heed, then, lest the light that [is] in you is darkness;
asmāt kāraṇāt tavāntaḥsthaṁ jyoti ryathāndhakāramayaṁ na bhavati tadarthe sāvadhāno bhava|
36 if then your whole body is lightened, not having any part darkened, the whole will be lightened, as when the lamp by the brightness may give you light.”
yataḥ śarīrasya kutrāpyaṁśe sāndhakāre na jāte sarvvaṁ yadi dīptimat tiṣṭhati tarhi tubhyaṁ dīptidāyiprojjvalan pradīpa iva tava savarvaśarīraṁ dīptimad bhaviṣyati|
37 And in [His] speaking, a certain Pharisee was asking Him that He might dine with him, and having gone in, He reclined,
etatkathāyāḥ kathanakāle phiruśyeko bhejanāya taṁ nimantrayāmāsa, tataḥ sa gatvā bhoktum upaviveśa|
38 and the Pharisee having seen, wondered that He did not first immerse Himself before the early meal.
kintu bhojanāt pūrvvaṁ nāmāṅkṣīt etad dṛṣṭvā sa phiruśyāścaryyaṁ mene|
39 And the LORD said to him, “Now you, the Pharisees, make the outside of the cup and of the plate clean, but your inward part is full of robbery and wickedness.
tadā prabhustaṁ provāca yūyaṁ phirūśilokāḥ pānapātrāṇāṁ bhojanapātrāṇāñca bahiḥ pariṣkurutha kintu yuṣmākamanta rdaurātmyai rduṣkriyābhiśca paripūrṇaṁ tiṣṭhati|
40 Unthinking [ones]! Did He who made the outside not also make the inside?
he sarvve nirbodhā yo bahiḥ sasarja sa eva kimanta rna sasarja?
41 But what you have given [as] alms, and behold, all things are clean to you.
tata eva yuṣmābhirantaḥkaraṇaṁ (īśvarāya) nivedyatāṁ tasmin kṛte yuṣmākaṁ sarvvāṇi śucitāṁ yāsyanti|
42 But woe to you, the Pharisees, because you tithe the mint, and the rue, and every herb, and you pass by the judgment and the love of God; these things [you] should do, and those not to be neglecting.
kintu hanta phirūśigaṇā yūyaṁ nyāyam īśvare prema ca parityajya podināyā arudādīnāṁ sarvveṣāṁ śākānāñca daśamāṁśān dattha kintu prathamaṁ pālayitvā śeṣasyālaṅghanaṁ yuṣmākam ucitamāsīt|
43 Woe to you, the Pharisees, because you love the first seats in the synagogues and the salutations in the marketplaces.
hā hā phirūśino yūyaṁ bhajanagehe proccāsane āpaṇeṣu ca namaskāreṣu prīyadhve|
44 Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites, because you are as the unseen tombs, and the men walking above have not known.”
vata kapaṭino'dhyāpakāḥ phirūśinaśca lokāyat śmaśānam anupalabhya tadupari gacchanti yūyam tādṛgaprakāśitaśmaśānavād bhavatha|
45 And one of the lawyers answering, says to Him, “Teacher, saying these things, You also insult us”;
tadānīṁ vyavasthāpakānām ekā yīśumavadat, he upadeśaka vākyenedṛśenāsmāsvapi doṣam āropayasi|
46 and He said, “And to you, the lawyers, woe! Because you burden men with burdens [too] grievous to bear, and you yourselves do not touch the burdens with one of your fingers.
tataḥ sa uvāca, hā hā vyavasthāpakā yūyam mānuṣāṇām upari duḥsahyān bhārān nyasyatha kintu svayam ekāṅgulyāpi tān bhārān na spṛśatha|
47 Woe to you, because you build the tombs of the prophets, and your fathers killed them.
hanta yuṣmākaṁ pūrvvapuruṣā yān bhaviṣyadvādino'vadhiṣusteṣāṁ śmaśānāni yūyaṁ nirmmātha|
48 Then you testify, and are well pleased with the works of your fathers, because they indeed killed them, and you build their tombs;
tenaiva yūyaṁ svapūrvvapuruṣāṇāṁ karmmāṇi saṁmanyadhve tadeva sapramāṇaṁ kurutha ca, yataste tānavadhiṣuḥ yūyaṁ teṣāṁ śmaśānāni nirmmātha|
49 because of this also the wisdom of God said: I will send to them prophets, and apostles, and some of them they will kill and persecute,
ataeva īśvarasya śāstre proktamasti teṣāmantike bhaviṣyadvādinaḥ preritāṁśca preṣayiṣyāmi tataste teṣāṁ kāṁścana haniṣyanti kāṁścana tāḍaśṣyinti|
50 that the blood of all the prophets, that is being poured forth from the foundation of the world, may be required from this generation—
etasmāt kāraṇāt hābilaḥ śoṇitapātamārabhya mandirayajñavedyo rmadhye hatasya sikhariyasya raktapātaparyyantaṁ
51 from the blood of Abel to the blood of Zacharias, who perished between the altar and the house; yes, I say to you, it will be required from this generation.
jagataḥ sṛṣṭimārabhya pṛthivyāṁ bhaviṣyadvādināṁ yatiraktapātā jātāstatīnām aparādhadaṇḍā eṣāṁ varttamānalokānāṁ bhaviṣyanti, yuṣmānahaṁ niścitaṁ vadāmi sarvve daṇḍā vaṁśasyāsya bhaviṣyanti|
52 Woe to you, the lawyers, because you took away the key of the knowledge; you yourselves did not enter; and you hindered those coming in.”
hā hā vyavasthapakā yūyaṁ jñānasya kuñcikāṁ hṛtvā svayaṁ na praviṣṭā ye praveṣṭuñca prayāsinastānapi praveṣṭuṁ vāritavantaḥ|
53 And in His speaking these things to them, the scribes and the Pharisees began fearfully to urge and to press Him to speak about many things,
itthaṁ kathākathanād adhyāpakāḥ phirūśinaśca satarkāḥ
54 laying wait for Him, and seeking to catch something out of His mouth, that they might accuse Him.
santastamapavadituṁ tasya kathāyā doṣaṁ dharttamicchanto nānākhyānakathanāya taṁ pravarttayituṁ kopayituñca prārebhire|
