< Luke 7 >
1 And when He completed all His sayings in the ears of the people, He went into Capernaum;
tataḥ paraṁ sa lōkānāṁ karṇagōcarē tān sarvvān upadēśān samāpya yadā kapharnāhūmpuraṁ praviśati
2 and a certain centurion’s servant being ill, was about to die, who was much valued by him,
tadā śatasēnāpatēḥ priyadāsa ēkō mr̥takalpaḥ pīḍita āsīt|
3 and having heard about Jesus, he sent to Him elders of the Jews, imploring Him, that having come He might thoroughly save his servant.
ataḥ sēnāpati ryīśō rvārttāṁ niśamya dāsasyārōgyakaraṇāya tasyāgamanārthaṁ vinayakaraṇāya yihūdīyān kiyataḥ prācaḥ prēṣayāmāsa|
4 And they, having come near to Jesus, were calling on Him earnestly, saying, “He is worthy to whom You will do this,
tē yīśōrantikaṁ gatvā vinayātiśayaṁ vaktumārēbhirē, sa sēnāpati rbhavatōnugrahaṁ prāptum arhati|
5 for he loves our nation, and he built to us the synagogue.”
yataḥ sōsmajjātīyēṣu lōkēṣu prīyatē tathāsmatkr̥tē bhajanagēhaṁ nirmmitavān|
6 And Jesus was going on with them, and now when He is not far distant from the house the centurion sent to Him friends, saying to Him, “Lord, do not be troubled, for I am not worthy that You may 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 for this reason I did not consider myself worthy to come to You, but say in a word, and my boy will 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, Be coming, and he comes; and to my servant, 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 having heard these things Jesus wondered at him, and having turned to the multitude following Him, He said, “I say to you, not even in Israel did I find so much faith”;
yīśuridaṁ vākyaṁ śrutvā vismayaṁ yayau, mukhaṁ parāvartya paścādvarttinō lōkān babhāṣē ca, yuṣmānahaṁ vadāmi isrāyēlō vaṁśamadhyēpi viśvāsamīdr̥śaṁ na prāpnavaṁ|
10 and those sent, having turned back to the house, found the ailing servant in health.
tatastē prēṣitā gr̥haṁ gatvā taṁ pīḍitaṁ dāsaṁ svasthaṁ dadr̥śuḥ|
11 And it came to pass, on the next day, He was going on to a city called Nain, and there were going with Him many of His disciples, and a great multitude,
parē'hani sa nāyīnākhyaṁ nagaraṁ jagāma tasyānēkē śiṣyā anyē ca lōkāstēna sārddhaṁ yayuḥ|
12 and as He came near to the gate of the city, then, behold, one dead was being carried forth, an only son of his mother, and she a widow, and a great multitude 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 having seen her, was moved with compassion toward her and said to her, “Do not be weeping”;
prabhustāṁ vilōkya sānukampaḥ kathayāmāsa, mā rōdīḥ| sa samīpamitvā khaṭvāṁ pasparśa tasmād vāhakāḥ sthagitāstamyuḥ;
14 and having come near, He touched the bier, and those carrying [it] stood still, and He said, “Young man, to you I say, Arise”;
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 took hold of all, and they were glorifying God, saying, “A great prophet has risen among us,” and, “God looked on His people.”
tasmāt sarvvē lōkāḥ śaśaṅkirē; ēkō mahābhaviṣyadvādī madhyē'smākam samudait, īśvaraśca svalōkānanvagr̥hlāt kathāmimāṁ kathayitvā īśvaraṁ dhanyaṁ jagaduḥ|
17 And the account of this went forth in all Judea about Him, and in all the region around.
tataḥ paraṁ samastaṁ yihūdādēśaṁ tasya caturdiksthadēśañca tasyaitatkīrtti rvyānaśē|
18 And the disciples of John told him about all these things,
tataḥ paraṁ yōhanaḥ śiṣyēṣu taṁ tadvr̥ttāntaṁ jñāpitavatsu
19 and John having called near a certain two of his disciples, sent to Jesus, saying, “Are You He who is coming, or do we look for another?”
sa svaśiṣyāṇāṁ dvau janāvāhūya yīśuṁ prati vakṣyamāṇaṁ vākyaṁ vaktuṁ prēṣayāmāsa, yasyāgamanam apēkṣya tiṣṭhāmō vayaṁ kiṁ sa ēva janastvaṁ? kiṁ vayamanyamapēkṣya sthāsyāmaḥ?
20 And having come near to Him, the men said, “John the Immerser sent us to You, saying, Are You He who is coming, or do we look for another?”
paścāttau mānavau gatvā kathayāmāsatuḥ, yasyāgamanam apēkṣya tiṣṭhāmō vayaṁ, kiṁ saēva janastvaṁ? kiṁ vayamanyamapēkṣya sthāsyāmaḥ? kathāmimāṁ tubhyaṁ kathayituṁ yōhan majjaka āvāṁ prēṣitavān|
21 And in that hour He cured many from diseases, and plagues, and evil spirits, and He granted sight to many blind.
tasmin daṇḍē yīśūrōgiṇō mahāvyādhimatō duṣṭabhūtagrastāṁśca bahūn svasthān kr̥tvā, anēkāndhēbhyaścakṣuṁṣi dattvā pratyuvāca,
22 And Jesus answering said to them, “Having gone on, report to John what you saw and heard, that blind men see again, lame walk, lepers are cleansed, deaf hear, dead are raised, poor have good news proclaimed;
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 he whoever may not be stumbled in Me.”
ētāni yāni paśyathaḥ śr̥ṇuthaśca tāni yōhanaṁ jñāpayatam|
24 And the messengers of John having gone away, He began to say to the multitudes concerning John: “What have you gone forth into the wilderness to look on? 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 have you gone forth to see? A man clothed in soft garments? Behold, they in splendid clothing, and living in luxury, are in the houses of kings!
yūyaṁ kiṁ draṣṭuṁ niragamata? kiṁ sūkṣmavastraparidhāyinaṁ kamapi naraṁ? kintu yē sūkṣmamr̥duvastrāṇi paridadhati sūttamāni dravyāṇi bhuñjatē ca tē rājadhānīṣu tiṣṭhanti|
26 But what have you gone forth to see? A prophet? Yes, I say to you, and much more 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 has been written: Behold, I send My messenger before Your face, who will prepare Your way before You;
paśya svakīyadūtantu tavāgra prēṣayāmyahaṁ| gatvā tvadīyamārgantu sa hi pariṣkariṣyati| yadarthē lipiriyam āstē sa ēva yōhan|
28 for I say to you, there is not a greater prophet, among those born of women, than John the Immerser; but the least 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 having heard, and the tax collectors, declared God righteous, having been immersed with the immersion of John,
aparañca sarvvē lōkāḥ karamañcāyinaśca tasya vākyāni śrutvā yōhanā majjanēna majjitāḥ paramēśvaraṁ nirdōṣaṁ mēnirē|
30 but the Pharisees and the lawyers put away the counsel of God for themselves, having not been immersed by him.
kintu phirūśinō vyavasthāpakāśca tēna na majjitāḥ svān pratīśvarasyōpadēśaṁ niṣphalam akurvvan|
31 And the LORD said, “To what, then, will I liken the men of this generation? And to what are they like?
atha prabhuḥ kathayāmāsa, idānīntanajanān kēnōpamāmi? tē kasya sadr̥śāḥ?
32 They are like to children, to those sitting in a marketplace, and calling to one another, and saying, We piped to you, and you did not dance, we mourned to you, and you did not weep!
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 Immerser came neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and you say, He has a demon;
yatō yōhan majjaka āgatya pūpaṁ nākhādat drākṣārasañca nāpivat tasmād yūyaṁ vadatha, bhūtagrastōyam|
34 the Son of Man came eating and drinking, and you say, Behold, a man, a glutton, and a wine drinker, a friend of tax collectors and sinners;
tataḥ paraṁ mānavasuta āgatyākhādadapivañca tasmād yūyaṁ vadatha, khādakaḥ surāpaścāṇḍālapāpināṁ bandhurēkō janō dr̥śyatām|
35 and the wisdom was justified from all her children.”
kintu jñāninō jñānaṁ nirdōṣaṁ viduḥ|
36 And a certain one of the Pharisees was asking Him that He might eat with him, and having gone into the house of the Pharisee He reclined,
paścādēkaḥ phirūśī yīśuṁ bhōjanāya nyamantrayat tataḥ sa tasya gr̥haṁ gatvā bhōktumupaviṣṭaḥ|
37 and behold, a woman in the city, who was a sinner, having known that He reclines in the house of the Pharisee, having provided an alabaster box of ointment,
ētarhi tatphirūśinō gr̥hē yīśu rbhēktum upāvēkṣīt tacchrutvā tannagaravāsinī kāpi duṣṭā nārī pāṇḍaraprastarasya sampuṭakē sugandhitailam ānīya
38 and having stood behind, beside His feet, weeping, she began to wet His feet with the tears, and with the hairs of her head she was wiping, and was kissing His feet, and was anointing with the ointment.
tasya paścāt pādayōḥ sannidhau tasyau rudatī ca nētrāmbubhistasya caraṇau prakṣālya nijakacairamārkṣīt, tatastasya caraṇau cumbitvā tēna sugandhitailēna mamarda|
39 And the Pharisee who called Him, having seen, spoke within himself, saying, “This One, if He were a prophet, would have known who and of what kind [is] the woman who touches Him, that 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 something to say to you”; and he says, “Teacher, say on.”
tadā yāśustaṁ jagāda, hē śimōn tvāṁ prati mama kiñcid vaktavyamasti; tasmāt sa babhāṣē, hē gurō tad vadatu|
41 “Two debtors were to a certain creditor; one was owing five hundred denarii, and the other fifty;
ēkōttamarṇasya dvāvadhamarṇāvāstāṁ, tayōrēkaḥ pañcaśatāni mudrāpādān aparaśca pañcāśat mudrāpādān dhārayāmāsa|
42 and they not having [with which] to give back, he forgave both; which of them then, do you say, will love him more?”
tadanantaraṁ tayōḥ śōdhyābhāvāt sa uttamarṇastayō rr̥ṇē cakṣamē; tasmāt tayōrdvayōḥ kastasmin prēṣyatē bahu? tad brūhi|
43 And Simon answering said, “I suppose that to whom he forgave the more”; and He said to him, “You judged correctly.”
śimōn pratyuvāca, mayā budhyatē yasyādhikam r̥ṇaṁ cakṣamē sa iti; tatō yīśustaṁ vyājahāra, tvaṁ yathārthaṁ vyacārayaḥ|
44 And having turned to the woman, He said to Simon, “See this woman? I entered into your house; you did not give water for My feet, but this woman wet My feet with tears, and wiped with the hairs of her head;
atha tāṁ nārīṁ prati vyāghuṭhya śimōnamavōcat, strīmimāṁ paśyasi? tava gr̥hē mayyāgatē tvaṁ pādaprakṣālanārthaṁ jalaṁ nādāḥ kintu yōṣidēṣā nayanajalai rmama pādau prakṣālya kēśairamārkṣīt|
45 you did not give a kiss to Me, but this woman, from what [time] I came in, did not cease kissing My feet;
tvaṁ māṁ nācumbīḥ kintu yōṣidēṣā svīyāgamanādārabhya madīyapādau cumbituṁ na vyaraṁsta|
46 you did not anoint My head with oil, but this woman anointed My feet with oil;
tvañca madīyōttamāṅgē kiñcidapi tailaṁ nāmardīḥ kintu yōṣidēṣā mama caraṇau sugandhitailēnāmarddīt|
47 therefore I say to you, her many sins have been forgiven, because she loved much; but to whom is forgiven little, loves little.”
atastvāṁ vyāharāmi, ētasyā bahu pāpamakṣamyata tatō bahu prīyatē kintu yasyālpapāpaṁ kṣamyatē sōlpaṁ prīyatē|
48 And He said to her, “Your sins have been forgiven”;
tataḥ paraṁ sa tāṁ babhāṣē, tvadīyaṁ pāpamakṣamyata|
49 and those dining with Him began to say within themselves, “Who is this, who also forgives sins?”
tadā tēna sārddhaṁ yē bhōktum upaviviśustē parasparaṁ vaktumārēbhirē, ayaṁ pāpaṁ kṣamatē ka ēṣaḥ?
50 And He said to the woman, “Your faith has saved you, be going on to peace.”
kintu sa tāṁ nārīṁ jagāda, tava viśvāsastvāṁ paryyatrāsta tvaṁ kṣēmēṇa vraja|
